Chapter 25 The Brother-in-law of the High Official of the Devil
Ali is actually a native Malay, but he always flaunts his Japanese identity and is proud of it. This phenomenon is very common among the Japanese army in Southeast Asia. This also proves from one aspect that Koizumi is dominant. The Southeast Asian colonial policy was successful and seemed to have widespread support from Southeast Asian indigenous people. Ali was able to obtain Japanese identity and was named Takagi Jiro by the commander of the regiment, Takagi Masarao. This was due to a strange combination of circumstances during a battle with the expeditionary force. By mistake, he blocked a bullet for Takagi Masara. The moment he was shot, he thought he was about to die. Ali was so frightened that he cried and shouted "I don't want to die." Then, because of Takagi Masara's special care Not only did he not die, but he was promoted to second lieutenant and granted the status of a Japanese citizen. The Malays were overjoyed. He became truly heroic in the war and began to think of himself as a Japanese everywhere. They did not even look at him in the eyes. Artest is the one with whom he has the best relationship. You must know that Artest was his introducer and guarantor when he joined the Fourteenth Army.
As a newly promoted squadron leader, Ali was very arrogant during this period, and he was always worried that others would not know his identity as an officer and that he was the popular man in front of Captain Takagi. Therefore, whenever he met a stranger, as long as he did not have a military rank, He would always show off deliberately to those who surpassed him, so that the other party would know that he was the number one person in the 138th Division. For example, now, when he saw a group of soldiers walking in front of him, the one with the highest rank among them But the second lieutenant, he immediately became energetic, tidied up and went forward.
Ali's regiment was taking a break during this period and was not stationed on the front line, so when he saw the opponent wearing a Japanese military uniform, he did not doubt that the opponent might be an enemy in disguise. About fifty meters away, he stood still and asked Said: "Hey, which department are you from? Why don't I seem to have seen you before?"
This is a pick-up line that Ali has gradually become accustomed to after this period of practice. As a squadron leader, he has the right to question the identity and purpose of travel of officers below the same level. As long as the other party picks up the conversation, he will immediately report his identity. Name and military rank, and a careful and rich self-introduction, saying: "Do you know, Captain Takagi, that I helped him take a bullet during the battle on a certain day in a certain month?"
Under normal circumstances, if there are serious Japs on the other side, they will immediately respect Ali and thank him from a national standpoint for saving Takagi, and Ali will climb up the pole and thank him profusely. , saying that he is also a Japanese citizen, and it is his duty to take bullets for his superiors. This will of course make the Japanese opposite feel proud. Next, Ali will swore out something like "Co-Prosperity in Greater East Asia" "Long live, long live His Majesty the Emperor", and gained the envy of all his subordinates after sending away these Japs.
But today, maybe Ali didn't count the auspicious days before going out, but his performance was asking for trouble.
Several Japanese soldiers suddenly blocked the way. Fang Yuan was secretly surprised at first, then made a gesture and walked over with a few brothers, pretending to be nonchalant and keeping the same pace.
Ali was a little surprised when he received no response to his question. However, he had encountered such a situation before, so he was not discouraged. There were always some weird-tempered Japanese among the Japanese, but with Captain Takagi's reputation, he would never have a bad temper. As for falling out with him, he didn't take it to heart and continued to step forward with a smile on his face. Ali directly introduced himself and then asked: "Where are you going, gentlemen?"
What Ali didn't know was that from the moment he spat out his poor Japanese, several people on the opposite side recognized his identity as a "two devils", and with their predecessors' successful experience in dealing with such situations, they were not willing to go any further. It was a waste of words, so when he was still a few meters away from Ali, Fang Yuan suddenly quickened his steps and walked in front of Ali. Then he rewarded him with two big-ear scrapers, front and back, and cursed: "Eight grids."
Fangyuan and his group of seven were the first batch of reconnaissance troops sent by Zhang Lingfu. Their mission was to completely investigate the Japanese defense arrangements in this area. Fangyuan and the other four people walked in the open, just to clear the way for the reconnaissance team. On the way, they had successfully passed through four Japanese checkpoints through this barbaric method. At this time, they thought that Ali and others were also some Japs on duty under cover of the enemy, so they slapped them rudely.
Fangyuan struck hard, and Ali was immediately beaten until stars flashed in his eyes, his ears rang, and he was completely stunned.
Fangyuan showed no mercy when he beat up Ali, the "fake imperial army", and the devils under him were immediately furious. They were so silent that they dared to do nothing. They watched Fangyuan and others walk away with trembling eyes. I'm just glad that the temper of these imperial soldiers wasn't too bad and didn't implicate them.
Fangyuan and others walked out for more than a hundred meters, and Ali finally woke up. Coincidentally, at this time, he happened to see Takagi Masashiro riding a tall horse from another road surrounded by several guards. Appeared around the corner, he seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, and immediately shouted hysterically and ordered his subordinates: "You guys, go and catch those guys who dare to offend me."
All the subordinates were startled at first, and then looked at Ali as if they were a madman. The four discerning men of the imperial army knew at a glance that they were genuine goods. If Ali had not been confused, how could he have made such an unrealistic statement? What's more, he actually called himself "Sir". Does he think this is still Malaysia controlled by the Malays?
Probably completely irritated by the attitudes and looks of his men, Ali took out his pistol and fired a shot into the air, shouting: "Do you want to die? You didn't even listen to the commander's orders."
Seeing him firing, all his subordinates did not dare to risk their lives and continue to disobey his orders. Moreover, those with sharp eyes also saw Takagi and knew that his sudden toughness must be due to the arrival of his backer. He winked at the others, Everyone immediately rushed towards Fangyuan and the others, shouting and screaming all the way.
"Ba Ge, I am also an imperial army, a real imperial army." Ali cursed angrily, then let out a soft cry because of the swelling and pain on his face, and ran towards Takagi.
The beaten two devils actually dared to catch up. This was beyond the expectations of Fangyuan and others. The distance was still quite far. Fangyuan said: "Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that this Xiaoquan really trained these Nanyang monkeys to have some military spirit." .”
"Maybe you just beat the brother-in-law of a high-ranking Japanese official." Behind him, a scout named Li Xiaozheng laughed.
"If this is possible, then brothers, let's practice our skills."
