The mountain wind was very strong, making people's clothes rustle violently and their hair fluttering in the wind.
Zheng Xiao stood on the edge of the cliff holding a pistol. Behind him were the dozen weapons experts. At this time, everyone grabbed a weapon, including the stolen gun and the bayonet removed from the gun. Some people grabbed
They picked up stones from the ground and used them as weapons, and some even broke off a wooden stick and held it in their hands.
Now that they knew they were in a desperate situation, many people thought that the worst possible outcome would be to die and fight with the Japanese.
Zheng Xiao felt that the momentum of the people behind him seemed to have changed. They were more bloody and less cowardly. He nodded slightly with satisfaction, "If we can survive this crisis, I'm afraid they will be the same as before."
Different."
But will the Japanese give them this opportunity? They don't know, and neither does Zheng Xiao.
The Japs stopped after gathering to a certain extent, and then the crowd facing Zheng Xiao and the others flashed to both sides, and a squadron leader walked out under the protection of several Japs and came to a place more than ten steps away from Zheng Xiao.
.
After standing still, the Japanese squadron leader looked up at Zheng Xiao, then nodded politely towards him and said, "I am Japanese Lieutenant Colonel Yamamoto Saburo. Who are you?"
"Zheng Xiao!"
Zheng Xiao's answer was very straightforward. He was like an iceberg from beginning to end, with no expression at all and he did not relax his vigilance with the weapons in his hands.
After Saburo Yamamoto heard Zheng Xiao's answer, he continued, "Mr. Zheng Xiao, the reason why I came to see you is because I want to persuade you to surrender."
Zheng Xiao sneered and said nothing, waiting for him to continue speaking.
Sure enough, after saying this, Saburo Yamamoto continued, "There is an old saying in China that those who know the current affairs better are heroes. I think you understand the current situation very well, so surrender, we will treat you preferentially."
"Pooh!"
"How much do you, a small country, know about the profoundness of Chinese culture, and you are just showing off in front of us?" Before Zheng Xiao could speak, Song Guangru on the side spat first. The old man's white hair trembled slightly with anger, and he took a step forward.
, raised his finger and pointed at Saburo Yamamoto opposite, and shouted, "Everyone in China knows that a scholar cannot be killed without humiliation, let alone you invaders stained with the blood of the Chinese people. If you want us to surrender, just dream on it."
The old man's tone was so passionate and sonorous that Zheng Xiao couldn't help but admire him, "This old man is so bloody. He is a man."
Although Saburo Yamamoto was robbed of several words by Song Guangru, he managed to hold back the anger in his heart, still maintained a smile on his face, and continued to persuade, "Everyone, the Imperial Japanese Army came to your country to
The establishment of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere is for the purpose of co-prosperity and co-existence. China and Japan are friendly and not an invader as you say."
"Burn, kill, loot, and commit all kinds of evil. Is this what you call Sino-Japanese friendship? It's ridiculous!" Gui Yiming couldn't help it anymore. The Japanese's shamelessness made her very angry. "Stop talking sweet words, we will not surrender."
"Okay, okay!"
Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Yamamoto Saburo immediately tore off his disguise, looked at everyone ferociously, and shouted, "I'll give you a minute to think about it. If you don't surrender then, you will all die." After saying that, he walked back to the Japanese team.
.
With a bang, the Japanese soldiers filled the vacancy where he had just been, completing the encirclement. Their guns were like a forest, pointing directly at Zheng Xiao and the others.
Time passed by second by second, and it was almost half a minute. There were beads of sweat on the foreheads of some people in the crowd. This kind of waiting was the most torturous thing.
Finally, when the minute was up, Saburo Yamamoto walked up again, raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, and asked, "What do you think?"
"Don't bother, come on!" Zheng Xiao, Gui Yiming, Song Guangru and others shouted loudly.
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude." Saburo Yamamoto raised his right hand high and was about to drop it.
At this critical moment, a voice rang out from behind everyone, which was so sudden that everyone was stunned, "I surrender, I surrender."
Zheng Xiao, Gui Yiming, and Song Guangru turned around and found that the person speaking was actually the young man He Qiu. Unexpectedly, he was a weakling and actually shouted surrender.
"Beast, beast, I, Song Guangru, am so blind that I accepted something from you, someone who has forgotten his ancestors." The old man's fingers trembled with anger, and he roared at He Qiu.
He Qiu didn't dare to look at Song Guangru and the others. He clung to the edge of the cliff and slipped away from the crowd to the Japs side. Two Japs immediately came up and took him down.
Among the remaining crowd, some people's eyes also flickered, and it seemed that they were a little moved. In the face of death, human nature was exposed and they made the most instinctive choice.
"You have to think carefully about whether there are others coming over!" Saburo Yamamoto continued to implement the mind-attacking tactics, putting pressure on the people on the opposite side.
Finally, three more people were defeated by the fear of death. They chose the same path as He Qiu and walked to the opposite side. They were also sent down by the Japanese.
Gui Yiming and others were so angry that their teeth were crushed to pieces, but there was no way to stop them. With so many Japanese guns watching eagerly, they could only watch them being sent away.
Zheng Xiao didn't speak. He knew that it was useless to say anything now, but he remembered the name and appearance of each person who surrendered, and it was firmly engraved in his heart.
If he could escape today's disaster, he would definitely go to those guys to settle accounts and let them know the consequences of being a traitor.
But those are all things for later. What he needs to find a solution to most now is the predicament he faces surrounded by Japanese soldiers.
With his mind spinning rapidly, Zheng Xiao was thinking of a solution.
Saburo Yamamoto saw that his threatening tactics were effective. He was very proud and decided to give Zheng Xiao and the others one more minute to think about it, hoping that more people would surrender and save himself some energy.
These people are weapons experts and treasures in the field of weapons manufacturing, so the Kwantung Army Headquarters issued an order not to harm these people unless absolutely necessary, and to try to capture them alive.
There was silence on the cliff. Zheng Xiao and the others kept their mouths shut and said nothing, but anxiously thought of a solution.
Zheng Xiao's eyes passed through the crowd of Japs and fell on the woods behind them. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he saw the figure of the black wolf.
Zheng Xiao was in a panic just now, so he didn't care to see if the black wolf was there. Unexpectedly, it was not following him, but quietly hid, and then it appeared again.
The Japs' attention was all on Zheng Xiao and the others on the edge of the cliff, so they didn't realize that there was a dangerous enemy approaching silently behind them.
