Seeing that the government troops were about to rush forward, Koga Sanji closed his eyes in despair and roared. He saw the right moment and suddenly howled, then stood up quickly and stepped back heavily.
The sound of Japanese motorcycles was getting closer and closer, bullets were dancing around them, and they were about to catch up with them.
When Kobayashi Naozou and his other brothers heard the gunshot, they knew that Koga Sanji had already joined the government troops. This was their agreed signal to take action. Soon after, there was another rumbling sound of motorcycles, and he understood
The firepower of the government forces was temporarily attracted, and this was the best moment to take action.
The defense of this city had been deeply imprinted on his heart. Taking advantage of the cover of night, they quickly escaped the sight of the Japanese sentry. At this moment, they had touched another gate of the Japanese city defense, but they could not use their guns.
, as soon as the gun went off, he must have exposed himself. He took a deep breath, made a gesture to the people following him, and then walked out slowly, shouting from afar: "What happened outside?"
What's up?"
His voice quickly disturbed two Japanese guards, who immediately asked in Japanese: "Who is doing what?"
"It's me, sent here by the headquarters. Didn't you hear the gunfire?" Naozou Kobayashi replied, but as soon as he finished speaking, the two guards in front of him fell down, and then several figures flashed out and followed him.
And enter.
"Time is very tight, leave two people to guard, and the rest will go in with me to carry the grain." After finishing speaking, Xiaobayashi Naozao walked straight towards the granary, and soon he came into sight, but at this moment, not
Suddenly there was a patter of footsteps in the distance, mixed with a low howl.
"Oops, there is an ambush." Kobayashi Takashi suddenly felt bad. He did not expect that the superficial defense was empty, but in fact there was an ambush. But at this time, the government troops were rushing towards them, so he had to shout an order in desperation.
, "Retreat quickly."
"Fight against the government troops." A brother shouted angrily, "If we go back and starve to death, we might as well kill a few government troops."
Kobayashi Shangzao was worried. He originally thought that with his knowledge of the Japanese defenses, he could successfully obtain food and change everyone's view of him on the mountain.
But at this time, the food grabbing plan failed, and these brothers could no longer be lost. Seeing the footsteps of the government troops getting closer and closer, he was so anxious that he howled at the top of his hoarse voice, "Quickly retreat, as long as you stay alive,
I will definitely lead you to find food, trust me."
"Because we believed in you, we were ambushed by the enemy. We captured this traitor and brought him back to the leader to make him pay for his life for the brothers." After a period of silence, when this voice sounded, there was a burst of echoes.
Kobayashi Naozao was feeling sulky and didn't care to explain anything to everyone at this time. He knew that none of them would be able to leave once the Japanese army arrived. At this time, he gritted his teeth and handed over the gun in his hand, saying: "I don't want anyone to die.
Here, if you don't believe me, you can shoot me at any time." After saying that, he began to retreat along the path he came from.
Bang bang, several sharp gunshots were heard, and the footsteps of the Japanese army were getting closer and closer. Seeing this, the other people had no choice but to follow Kobayashi Naozoo and leave quickly.
Koga Sankichi led his brothers to retreat and counterattack, attracting the firepower of the government troops. They retreated towards Kirishima Mountain while firing blank guns into the sky. But not long after, the cunning Japanese army stopped chasing.
"Stop chasing, retreat immediately." After giving the order, all the motorcycles and Japanese soldiers turned around and drove towards the station. This group of government troops was also frightened by the bandits on Kirishima Mountain, let alone in such a dark night.
They didn't dare to continue chasing for fear of being ambushed.
Koga Sankichi and others had just run out not far away. They thought that the government troops would catch up without any scruples this time, but at this time they felt that there was no sound behind them, so they all got into the deep ditch on the roadside and waited for the next step.
One step action.
"Strange, why didn't the enemy follow?"
"The government forces seem to have discovered our plan."
"What should we do now? If this is really the case, wouldn't Yamaguchi-kun and the others be in trouble?"
Koga Sankichi heard the whispers of his brothers in his ears, and he felt anxious. Just when he couldn't think of what to do next, another burst of fierce gunfire came from the direction of the Japanese army station. His heart suddenly tightened, and he said anxiously:
"No, government troops discovered them."
"Your Excellency, Squadron Leader, what should we do now? If they are caught by government troops, I'm afraid they won't come out alive!"
Of course Koga Sanyoshi knew that the government forces would not be soft on their people, but if they went out now, they would not be able to rescue the brothers who fell into the hands of the government forces. He looked a little depressed, but it was not because he could not save his brothers, but because he did not
Completing the mission of grabbing food is a more fatal thing than sacrificing a few brothers.
Voices full of passion and anger echoed in the ears, and Koga Sankichi suddenly shouted: "Yaka, you all want to die like dogs in the hands of the government troops? The days are long, as long as you stay alive, there will be many opportunities in the future.
Then we can kill more people."
"Your Excellency, Squadron Leader, what should we do if Yamaguchi lifts them? The government forces will definitely not be able to spare them."
"We can't control that much anymore, withdraw!" Koga Sankichi felt enlightened. Although he didn't have much education, he knew that leaving green mountains without fear of running out of firewood, so he immediately issued the order very resolutely.
The Japanese army suffered a lot in this area, so after they withdrew from the city, they only strengthened their vigilance. With the dark moon and high winds, they no longer dared to pursue, so Koga Sankichi led the remaining brothers to successfully retreat to Kirishima Mountain.
"Yamaguchi and the others are probably in trouble."
"Baga, we didn't get any food, and so many people died."
"Leader.¨" As soon as Koga Miyoshi spoke, Suzuki Masahiro interrupted him. He wanted to be alone for a while, so he closed his eyes slightly, feeling confused.
He regretted that he had been too rash. He was also forced by food. If he couldn't find food again, it would be difficult for all the brothers on the mountain to survive this winter. He began to worry about Xiaolin Naozao and the other brothers who had not returned to the mountain.
But not long after, when everyone was anxiously waiting for news about the brothers who had not yet returned, they suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Yamaguchi, what's going on?" When they found that there was no missing brother, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Suzuki Masahiro stepped forward and took a close look at all the brothers, and finally his anxious heart dropped.
"Leader, I failed to complete the mission and didn't bring the food back." Naozao Kobayashi thought of the thrilling scene just now, and cold sweat broke out on his spine. If they hadn't retreated quickly, they would have become prisoners or lost.
life.
But Suzuki Masahiro smiled generously, and then turned to Koga Sankichi. Koga Sankichi's head drooped slightly, and he stared at Kobayashi Naozō with sideways eyes.
"Now is not the time to blame ourselves. I know that everyone has tried their best. The only fault is that the enemy is too cunning." When Suzuki Masahiro said this, although his voice was low, his tone was particularly loud and his speaking speed also changed.
"Leader, it's my fault. I didn't stop him at that time. If I had stopped him, he wouldn't have died. You punish me, I deserve to die!" Koga Sanji's expression was dull, but every word he spoke was like a sharp sword.
It was inserted into the chest of the person next to me. No blood was seen, but my heart was bleeding continuously.
Kobayashi Naozou was also deeply affected. In his previous years of life, whether in school, on the way to join the army or on the battlefield, he had never been moved by such a true emotion.
"The Empire of Japan is the greatest country in the world, and we have the most orthodox and noble blood flowing in our bodies." He thought of the arrogant words Hamae Takasumi once said to him, and he couldn't help but sneered in his heart.
one
"Leader¨." A voice suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention. Suzuki Masahiro turned back to look at the brother, waiting for him to continue.
"Leader, our actions tonight were all planned by him. People died, and we didn't get any food. It's all because of him. I suspect he is a spy sent by the government army."
"Shut up!" Suzuki Masahiro heard what this subordinate wanted to say, and immediately interrupted him angrily. After a long time, he sighed, and then said in a deep voice, "Don't say anything, I know it in my heart."
I hope I won't hear any more discussion about this matter. Let's discuss everything later.
"Leader, you can't. Alas!"
There was a helpless sigh in Suzuki Masahiro's ears, and his heart was actually clenching. He insisted on keeping Naozou Kobayashi, and even asked him to lead his brothers to get food. There was something hidden behind all this seemingly simple trust.
His own true thoughts.
After hearing these words, Kobayashi Naozou's face suddenly turned livid, and he didn't know what to do for a moment!
In this case, what else could he say?
Suzuki Masahiro's heart was trembling. He understood the mood of his brothers, but he could not kill Kobayashi Naozoichi because of this.
The scene was quiet, there were no more words, only noisy breathing.
Kobayashi Naozou's heart hurts more and more. He understands that his existence has hurt many people, but what can he do to prove himself?
It's a pity that tonight's operation failed, otherwise his situation would not be so embarrassing. Thinking of this, he finally couldn't help but take a step forward, mustered up the courage to say: "Leader, since everyone still can't believe me, I
You can leave immediately. I don’t want to embarrass you, nor do I want to embarrass everyone. But as long as I can stay, I promise everyone that I will definitely get food."
After saying that, he was about to walk into the house, but he was blocked by a man standing in front.
"Do you think this will make everything okay? This is a place where you can come and go whenever you want?" The person who just spoke blocked Naozou Kobayashi's path and said in a cold tone:
