Gendarmerie, a component of an army or a military command at a certain level, which exercises police powers among soldiers and those affiliated with the unit, arrests deserters, and guards prisoners.
Like the armored force and aviation force, the military police is also a regular permanent branch of the military in most countries in the world. It is mainly responsible for maintaining military discipline, ensuring the execution of military orders, and organizing military courts. It is a veritable police force in the military.
During World War II, the Japanese Military Police's domestic function was also to manage the army, but after arriving in China, its nature changed and it became an agency specialized in managing Chinese people!
The Fengtian Gendarmerie is now located in an independent courtyard within the Marshal's Mansion, with the entrance opening at the west gate of the Marshal's Mansion.
There is no sign hanging at the gate of the Japanese Fengtian Military Police. There is only a Japanese military policeman standing there with a 38-meter cover on his back, but the people passing by hide far away, as if it is hell!
In fact, for the Chinese at that time, entering here was like entering hell. It was a life of nine or even ten deaths!
Generally, those arrested by the military police are anti-Japanese elements, and they also adhere to the principle that they would rather arrest and kill by mistake than let them go. Therefore, everyone who is caught will be tortured and tortured.
Many people were tortured to death!
The Fengtian Japanese Gendarmerie has established two classes, namely the Special High School Class and the Economic Class, which are responsible for criminal and economic matters respectively. Captain Inukai Ken is generally not directly responsible for specific operations, but sits at home!
Originally, the Japanese military police were stationed in a large independent courtyard in the west of the city. It was originally the residence of the prince of the former Qing Dynasty. It had high walls and wide courtyards, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, it was bombed into ruins by Luo Xiao a few months ago.
There is no need for any more repairs!
Therefore, the gendarmerie moved to the Marshal's Mansion and was crowded together with other Japanese agencies in Fengtian!
When it comes to the gendarmerie, their cells are indispensable. This is where the hell for those prisoners is!
You can enter the underground cell through a long corridor from the ground. The light here is dim and the atmosphere is gloomy. Because of poor ventilation, the air is filled with an unpleasant smell all the time.
In a spacious corridor, there are cells on both sides. The thick iron doors are equipped with iron bars, giving prisoners who want to escape no chance. And in the corridor, the twelve Japanese military policemen holding rifles stand at attention.
It even made the fantasy of escape come to nothing!
In the two cells closest to the end of the corridor, Zang Xuecheng and Ma Xueli were sitting in the corner, looking up at the roof above their heads with blank eyes. A light bulb with a low degree was hanging above the head, emitting a faint light, making the room
Not that dark!
There was no bed on the ground, only a pile of dry straw, which had not been replaced for an unknown period of time. It had long since become moldy and exuded a suffocating smell. The walls were covered with blood stains left by an unknown person, which had long since dried.
Exudes black and red!
Although the two men were former senior officers of the security army and had sold many lives to the Japanese, once they were captured into the Japanese military police, they were treated like ordinary prisoners and did not receive any preferential treatment.
This is the consequence of being a lackey!
The dungeon was very quiet, and from time to time you could hear a faint groan coming from the inhabited cell, or the clatter of shackles!
Zang Xuecheng closed his eyes, and the collar of his military uniform was unbuttoned, revealing the white shirt underneath. After all, they were once senior officers of the security army, so Quan Yangjian did not beat them, but just imprisoned them!
The Security Army is directly under the Kwantung Army Headquarters, so Inukai Ken has no right to handle this matter. It must be reported to the Kwantung Army Commander Honjo Shige, and let the Commander handle it personally!
Therefore, because Ben Zhuangfan hadn't arrived yet, Zang Xuecheng and Ma Xueli were locked in the dungeon without being brought to court or punished!
Three meals a day were delivered on time, but they were full just by looking at the rough steamed buns and the moldy pickles on top, so how could they eat them, so they had to deal with how they brought and brought them back every day.
of!
Under the light, Zang Xuecheng's face looked rather haggard, and a long shadow was dragged out by the light. He closed his eyes, not knowing whether he was asleep or not, but he only moved his body occasionally!
Suddenly, there was the sound of the iron gate coming out of the corridor at the end. It sounded like someone was coming down from above. Then there was the sound of the big lock on the iron gate being opened, and then the iron gate was pushed open with a creak!
Zang Xuecheng's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, because he heard the distinctive sound of Japanese officers' big leather boots in the corridor, and the direction seemed to be where he was!
"Isn't it the commander who is here?" Zang Xuecheng's heart moved and he hurriedly stood up from the ground. With this effort, he felt his head buzzing and many gold stars appeared in front of his eyes.
Only then did he realize that he had not eaten for more than a day. Zang Xuecheng laughed at himself, and then threw himself at the window regardless of this!
Ma Xueli on the opposite side also behaved the same way and rushed to the window at the same time. The two looked at each other and saw deep hatred in each other's eyes!
A row of Japanese officers came from the other end of the corridor. The Japanese officer at the front was wearing a general's uniform and holding a bushido in his hand. He was none other than Shigeru Honjo, Commander-in-Chief of the Japanese Kwantung Army. He was accompanied by Ken Inukai and Sakata!
"Commander, I was wronged!" As soon as he saw the shadow of Benzhuang Shimo, Ma Xueli spoke up first and cried out.
Zang Xuecheng originally opened his mouth, but he didn't expect to be beaten to the spot by Ma Xueli. He glared at Ma Xueli angrily and closed his mouth helplessly!
Honzhuang Fan heard Ma Xueli's call, but he remained expressionless as he strode to the middle of the cell where the two men were, looked at the two men respectively, and then waved!
Inukai Ken quickly ordered someone to open the cell, and then several Japanese military police swarmed up, tied the two people up with ropes, and then led them towards the torture room with Shigeru Honjo behind him!
The torture room is at the end of the corner of the corridor, facing the corridor that comes down. It covers an area of about a hundred square meters. A large pool several meters long and wide is dug at one end. There are several iron frames erected in it, and there are several iron frames fixed on them.
one person.
The lower bodies of several people were in the water, up to their chests. The water had been there for an unknown amount of time, and was covered in black foam. There were blood stains and maggots floating on the water, and a smell of rotten flesh wafted from it. They were fixed in the water.
Several people on the wooden piles were dying, their heads hung down, their faces covered by messy hair!
Ma Xueli glanced around and found that one of them was a woman, who was also fixed in the water, with her head lowered and motionless!
The sound of Inukai Ken and the others walking in the door alarmed the people in the pool. Two of them raised their heads and looked, and then cursed in a weak voice, "Down with Japanese imperialism, long live the Chinese people!"
--puff--!
A whip covered with spikes was thrown over, leaving a bloody mark on the man's chest. The pool water immediately submerged the scar, and he couldn't help but groan at the burning pain!
"These people are die-hards, let's just keep them here till death!" Ken Inukai seemed to turn a blind eye to all this, and said to the Japanese military policeman standing by the pool with a whip.
Several Japanese military police bowed to him, "Hi, captain!"
Honjo Shige didn't look at all this, but walked directly behind the table where the prisoners were being interrogated, then sat on the chair and waved to the opposite side!
Several wolf-like Japanese military police rushed over, lifted Zang Xuecheng and Ma Xueli, placed them on the long bench opposite the interrogation table, and then fixed them with iron rings!
Honzhuang Fan raised his head, glanced at the two people's faces, and said in a calm tone, "Zang Sang, Masang, do you two have anything to say?"
