Chapter 488: Xia the Translator Plays the Dark Side of the Light
Captain Huang knew it very well in his heart, otherwise he would have been in trouble if he hadn't sacrificed his own wife.
I'm afraid he had already given up his position as the commander of the Imperial Army to Battalion Commander Zhang.
Captain Huang's face turned red. He looked around and prepared to continue finding trouble with Captain Zhang.
The defensive fortifications arranged by Captain Zhang seemed to have been completed.
At the widest part of the stronghold's wall, they used sandbags to form several circular positions, and light and heavy machine guns were set up.
Captain Huang's eyes seemed to have seen something extraordinary.
He shouted loudly: Captain Zhang, what do you mean by this fortification?
Why are there sandbags piled behind you? Who are you guarding against?
Captain Zhang said coldly: "Captain Huang, didn't you see the Eighth Route Army bombarding?
The circular position arranged with sandbags is naturally to protect against shrapnel coming from behind.
Are you trying to say that I am on guard against the Japanese?
Don't you see that I'm in a position facing inside, without setting up a machine gun?
Tell me, why did you bring these people here? Is it you or the Japanese who have a problem? "
He was heading towards the inside of the stronghold, and there was indeed no machine gun set up.
But they had already prepared the machine gun position, and as long as they set up the heavy machine gun, they could fire at any time.
But he just wanted to bully Huang Huaishui so blatantly.
It's because he knows nothing about military affairs. Even with everything right in front of him, he still can't understand it.
At this time, Captain Huang was almost discouraged as he was repeatedly retorted by Captain Zhang.
But he couldn't refute a single word, which further demonstrated his incompetence.
The younger brothers who followed him also disliked Huang Huaishui.
You said you are here now, why are you still wasting time talking to Captain Zhang?
Just shoot him to death, and everything will be solved. Even his subordinates will dare not resist.
But you just chose to use a trick to take the initiative and scare Captain Zhang.
I didn't expect that I would end up losing more than I gained, and I ended up losing all my momentum.
Now listening to the tone of Captain Zhang's questioning and Huang Huaishui's timid eyes.
Those who don’t know might think that Huang Huaishui is Captain Zhang’s subordinate.
"Just now, Mr. Sato called our Imperial Army."
"What did Captain Sato tell you on the phone?"
"He ordered our Imperial Army to defend the west gate with all their might and not to retreat even a single step. Those who violate the order will be punished by military law."
"I understand, please go back!"
Huang Huaishui turned around and was about to leave when he saw his brothers looking at him with surprise (as if they were looking at a fool).
Huang Huaishui: It’s bad. I’ve been intimidated by Captain Zhang again. Now my prestige is gone completely.
If he fails to kill Captain Zhang today, he will probably be "replaced" without the Japanese having to say anything.
He wanted to take action, but was afraid that Miyamoto Taijun, who was supervising the battle, would not be happy.
"Where is Miyamoto Taijun? I want to see Miyamoto Taijun, why isn't he here?"
Logically speaking, he had been here for quite some time, so why didn't he see a single Japanese person?
If it were any other time, Lady Miyamoto would have come over to “beat them up” long ago. Could it be that they ran away too?
At this time, Translator Xia came up and said, "Captain Huang, don't look for her anymore. Miyamoto Taijun is injured and is resting downstairs."
Injured? Resting?
Huang Huaishui followed the direction that Translator Xia pointed and looked over there.
Near the inner wall, the Japanese military supervisory team, who looked ferocious in the morning, were piled together like logs.
Swarms of flies were buzzing around Miyamoto's team.
Streams of blood flowed out from under their bodies, almost forming a pool on the ground.
It looks so dazzling under the afternoon sun.
At this time, Huang Huaishui's face was full of horror. He pointed at the translator Huang and couldn't say a word.
Huang Huaishui’s fright was not over yet, because the sound of hurried horse hooves suddenly came from the direction of Liulang Pass.
When there were still two hundred meters away from the outermost trench of the stronghold.
Another thing happened that Huang Huaishui could not imagine.
The Imperial Army in the bunkers near the three suspension bridges did not fire with machine guns.
Instead, he sent people to lower the drawbridge while waving a white flag at the edge of the drawbridge.
It seems that he wanted to ask the Eighth Route Army cavalry to cross the trench quickly.
Huang Huaishui pointed in the direction of the suspension bridge and stood motionless behind the parapet.
The guard behind him quickly pulled his arm and called out to him loudly.
"Captain Huang, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army has attacked. What should we do? Please give us a plan."
But at this moment, Huang Huaishui's eyes were wide open and he stood there motionless.
When they looked closely, they saw a stream of smelly green water coming out of Huang Huaishui's mouth.
After a series of shocks, he was actually frightened to death by the arrival of the Eighth Route Army cavalry.
Huang Huaishui's bodyguards and younger brothers were immediately thrown into chaos by his death.
Some of them turned around and ran for their lives, while others shouted for revenge for Captain Huang.
But when they looked back, Captain Zhang and Translator Huang had disappeared.
Just when they were thinking of seeking revenge, they suddenly heard the sound of a gun bolt being pulled.
"Da da da……"
Two Type 24 water-cooled heavy machine guns have begun to spray a storm of metal towards them.
As two heavy machine guns fired at them, bullets hit their chests and backs, leaving bunches of blood.
The people Huang Huaishui brought were truly a mob armed with automatic weapons.
He didn't even have a chance to fire a shot before he was taken away by Captain Zhang.
Okay, this is the difference between thugs and regular soldiers.
As long as they are ready, the group of people brought by Huang Huaishui are basically here to deliver military supplies.
After all the people on the opposite side were knocked down, Ma Laosan quickly pulled out his revolver and led his men over to fire more shots.
By the way, all the automatic weapons in their hands were confiscated.
At this time, Battalion Commander Zhang and Translator Xia stood up from behind the sandbags.
It turned out that the two of them were so brave that they actually helped Huang Huaishui to conceal his true identity.
There was only a layer of sandbags between them and the people brought by Captain Huang.
It was just because their attention was attracted by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army.
They were unable to discover the movements of Captain Zhang and Translator Xia in time.
This gave Company Commander Ma, who was in the machine gun position at the back, a great advantage.
Translator Xia said, "I say, Third Brother, why are you in such a hurry to pick up things? By then, you too will be a member of the Eighth Route Army.
You take your men now and seize the east gate while the Japanese are not in the stronghold. Don't let the Japanese come back.
Old Zhang, don't just sit there, hurry up and take your men to persuade the brothers from those two camps to surrender.
Otherwise, once the Eighth Route Army enters the stronghold, they won’t be considered to be insurgents, at best they will be considered to have surrendered.”
Captain Zhang: "Xia Lao Er, you are really not from the Eighth Route Army, what underground worker?"
It is no wonder that Captain Zhang asked this question. It was mainly because Translator Xia was too familiar with the policies of the Eighth Route Army.
Translator Xia felt really embarrassed by the questions asked by these two guys. He now really wished he was a member of the Eighth Route Army.
He could only fool around with the two of them and said, "Ahem, as a general, you should think about defeat before you go into battle, so that you can fight a hundred battles without fail."
