"It's understandable to work in the mines. [.Com text] According to my understanding of the Northeast, the mineral resources here are not only rich in the country, but also in the whole of Asia. Anshan, Benxi's iron mines, Fushun
, coal from Fuxin, magnesium from Dashiqiao, and molybdenum from Yangjiazhangzi are all necessary resources for the military industry. It is understandable that the Japanese would transport us to the mines to work as coolies. However, most of the resources in the Northeast that have been developed are in Liaoning.
Within the territory, except for a few coal mines in Heilongjiang, there are no big mines in the north. Could it be that the Japanese keep pulling us north to go to Heilongjiang?"
"Also, I don't quite understand what you said about them transporting us to the Northeast to build fortifications. Since the September 18th Incident, it has been the seventh year since the Japanese army invaded the Northeast. With the strength of Japan,
At least for now, there is no way to regain the Northeast. And other powers will not offend the Japanese for China's sake. Unless they are from the north?"
Speaking of this, Guo Bingxun was shocked. The Japanese were pulling their prisoners of war all the way to the north, and the north was the land bordering the Soviet Union. Could it be that what the person in front of him guessed was true? The Japanese really wanted to pull their prisoners of war to the center.
Did the Soviet border build fortifications for them?
"Do you mean that the Japanese want to take action in the north? This is unlikely, right? As you said, although the Japanese captured cities and territories within the pass and gained the upper hand for a while, they are far from completely conquering China. The government
Still resisting, the Chinese are still resisting. Before completing the conquest of China, the Japanese are far from capable of opening two fronts with their national strength."
Regarding Yang Zhen's estimation, Guo Bingxun understood some aspects, but he did not understand some aspects, and even could not believe it. From his perspective, although Japan's national power is far stronger than China, it is not comparable to the European and American powers.
There is still a big gap. Due to innate constraints, the industrial capabilities of the Japanese are far from being comparable to those of the old powers in Europe and the United States. Before the Japanese complete their conquest of China, they will not be able to attack another country.
Although the Japanese are a little greedy and have a narrow vision, they are not too overestimated.
"Why is it impossible? For many years, the Japanese navy has regarded the United States as its imaginary enemy, and the imaginary enemy the army has set for itself is the Soviet Union. As for capabilities? When have the Japanese ever failed to make a profit? When have they not been stubborn?
Can it hold a pound? Even though Japan is a small country and its people are shorter, their ambitions are inversely proportional to their stature. Whether it was the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1898 or the Russo-Japanese War, they did not use their small skills to make big gains.
.”
"Japan is a country with poor resources and many volcanoes and earthquakes. This environment has created the Japanese's natural gambler character. It's just that their previous gambles were all lucky. It's just the Japanese's national strength that determines their success.
We can only fight quickly and cannot afford to fight a delayed war. If nothing else, if the Northeast Army rose up to resist the September 18th Incident, once the war was delayed, Japan, which was in the midst of an economic crisis at that time, could not delay it."
"But these few lucky successes have stimulated the Japanese to develop a good appetite. And those rich trophies have further stimulated the greed in their bones. There is nothing in this world that they dare not do. As long as there are three
If they have the hope of success, they dare to poke a hole in the sky. Not to mention the Soviets, their early defeat, even the richest Americans in the world may not dare to do it. You see,
In the not-too-distant future, the Japanese and Americans will definitely have a war. And the Japanese will eventually die because of their appetite. They dared to blow up and sink American warships in Nanjing, not to mention the fact that they have always been
The Soviets who saw them as defeated?"
Having said this, Yang Zhen stopped to take a breath and said: "Brother Guo, tell your brothers, no matter where they transport us, they must hold their breath. Just like you said, as long as we can survive,
, then there will be a way. The Japanese went through so much trouble to transport us all the way here, so they won't kill us for a while. As long as there is time, we can figure out a way to escape."
Hearing Yang Zhen's words, Guo Bingxun, who was still immersed in his previous words, nodded and said: "Brother Yang, have you figured it out now? Yes, we must live no matter what. Death is not terrible,
But we can’t die so cowardly.”
Both Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun still thought the Japanese were too kind in their hearts. They did not expect the Japanese's true purpose of transporting them to the Northeast. If they knew it, even if Guo Bingxun did not understand their purpose
No matter where the earth is, there will be no changes, but it is hard to say that Yang Zhen will remain as calm as he is now.
Although Yang Zhen had a general guess about the Japanese intention of transporting his prisoners of war from inside the customs to outside the customs, the development of the situation did not change according to his wishes. As the train moved, what they were about to face
The outcome was already before them. The outcome was so bad that even Yang Zhen, who was well versed in future generations, did not expect it.
When Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun were guessing the Japanese's true intention of transporting them to the Northeast, the light that penetrated the carriage through the ventilation window that was only slightly opened a slit disappeared little by little until it completely disappeared.
The speeding train finally came to a complete stop.
When the train stopped this time, the Japanese did not open the door and deliver the water and food that could only sustain a person's bare survival. They did not stop for a while and continue moving as before. The train just stopped quietly.
There is no restart.
Although the Japanese troops escorting the train never let the prisoners of war get off the train, this was the first time the train had stopped for such a long time since departing from Peking, letting all the prisoners know that their destination had finally arrived. Compared to the situation in the carriage, it was unbearable.
The intense heat and hunger, although it is still unknown what kind of outcome he will face in the future, the arrival of the end point is more like a relief for all the prisoners of war in the carriage.
Although the arrival of the end point was a relief for most of the tortured prisoners of war in the carriage, Yang Zhen, who had just recovered a little strength, suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart. And as the
As time went by, the ominous premonition in Yang Zhen's heart not only did not lessen, but became stronger and stronger.
And it was obvious that he was not the only one who had the same feeling as him. Guo Bingxun, who had been by his side since he woke up, obviously also felt this way. Although he could not see the expression on the other person's face clearly in the dark,
But the two people looked back at each other almost at the same time. The two cold hands, which seemed a bit unusual in this unbearably hot and stuffy carriage, were also held tightly together.
After a moment of silence, Yang Zhen spoke first: "Brother Guo, we should be where they want to send us this time. You must take good care of your brothers. Tell them not to act recklessly, but to be steady and steady."
Don't give up easily. As the saying goes, as long as you live, there is hope."
After listening to Yang Zhen's words, although Guo Bingxun couldn't see clearly the expression on Yang Zhen's face in the darkness, he could feel something from the strength of his hold on his hand. Guo Bingxun did not answer Yang Zhen directly, but just put the two hands together.
He only shook the hands that were holding each other vigorously before saying again: "You should also take care. As you just said, don't abandon or give up."
Before Yang Zhen had time to reply to Guo Bingxun's words, the carriage door, which had been closed since the car parked, was suddenly opened. As the carriage door was opened, several bright lights shone directly into the dark carriage. With these few seconds, the carriage door was opened.
Under the bright light that made it difficult for anyone to open their eyes, a voice speaking in blunt Chinese came in: "Everyone in the car, please get out of the car and gather together."
When Yang Zhen and other prisoners of war were escorted out of the carriage, they couldn't help but take a breath when they saw the scene on the platform. This small station was full of loaded guns and ammunition, and Type 38s with bayonets on their flat ends.
Japanese soldier with rifle.
Surrounding these Japanese soldiers, more than a dozen wolf dogs were looking at the prisoners of war in front of them with their mouths open. They were jumping up and down, trying desperately to break free of the chains in their masters' hands and come up to bite them. And there were ten dogs around the platform.
Several searchlights illuminated this small platform and its surroundings brightly.
The Japanese army welcomed these unarmed prisoners of war with such grandeur that Yang Zhen quickly discovered something was wrong. The so-called Manchukuo had been established for many years, and the Japanese army's control over the puppet troops here was far from that of those who had just been recruited in the customs.
The puppet army can be compared. It is said that escorting prisoners of war like myself does not require many Japanese troops at all. But today there is not a single puppet army, and all the people present are authentic Japanese soldiers. And the Japanese translator just now
Judging from his stiff accent, he is also an authentic Japanese. And he is not the so-called China-savvy Japanese who grew up in China, let alone those traitors. He should be transferred from their country.
Yang Zhen realized something was wrong, and Guo Bingxun, who was walking side by side with him, also noticed something was wrong. Guo Bingxun, who had been captured in the Xuzhou Battle and had lived in the prisoner-of-war camp for much longer than Yang Zhen now, even discovered that there was an abnormality in Yang Zhen's life.
Before.
Guo Bingxun, who realized something was wrong, gently tugged on Yang Zhen's sleeve. After quickly glancing around, he said in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Brother Yang, something is wrong. Not counting the Japanese who escorted us, this alone
There were two squadrons of Japanese soldiers inside and outside the platform, and there was not a single puppet soldier in the middle. When we were escorted from Xuzhou to Peiping, although the escorts were Japanese troops, after getting off the bus, except for a small number of Japanese troops, most of them escorted us.
They were all puppet troops. At that time, our numbers were much greater than now."
"And you can see that the little devils have deployed at least six machine guns around us just in front of us. The fire control range of these machine guns covers the entire platform, leaving no blind spots at all. There are also these searchlights and those wolf dogs.
According to the kid's habit of being arrogant and looking down on the squadron, there must be something fishy in the fact that the kid put up such a big battle to welcome us today."
Hearing Guo Bingxun's words, Yang Zhen nodded lightly. Just as he was about to say something, the Japanese soldier who was escorting him hit him on the shoulder with the butt of a rifle, knocking back what he wanted to say. With this falling
The gun butt also has the blunt Chinese words: "Go quickly, don't whisper. If you are whispering, you are dead, dead, dead."
His body was tilted by the sudden fall of the gun butt. If it weren't for the quick support of Guo Bingxun and Xiao Huzi behind him, Yang Zhen, who almost didn't fall, could only swallow back the words he was about to say. Yang Zhen could not speak.
, he only nodded slightly towards Guo Bingxun to indicate that he had discovered something unusual.
