Longquan Town, an important cross hub on the border of Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, has attracted attention for its unique geographical location. One afternoon in July 1943, on the main street of Longquan Town, the sound of motorcycles broke the silence. Three motorcycles led the way, followed by a black "Ford" car with a plaster flag, honking its horn frantically and driving through the street like a gale, making a sharp turn, and driving into a compound without slowing down.
The bluestone structure of the compound is solemn and solid. The two guards in front of the door were loaded with live ammunition, the high courtyard wall was set up with a double-layer power grid, and four watchtowers shaped like monsters stood in the four corners, and the muzzles of black holes were peeking out of the walls. Inside the courtyard, a small gray building stands, and its hideous appearance is intimidating. This is the Japanese Garrison, an important Japanese military organization in Longquan Town.
The car stopped, and Akio Yamada, the captain of the garrison, stepped out of the greeting procession, his movements were swift and respectful, despite his bloated posture. He stood upright, then cautiously went to open the door. However, the person in the car door was one step ahead of him, and two slaps hit him in the face. Akio Yamada stood in place, not daring to move.
The person who came was none other than Umezu Takeo, and his arrival filled Akio Yamada's heart with panic. For several days, he was plagued by fear, confusion, and irritability. As soon as he thought of the scene of the military incident, he was terrified, like sitting on pins and needles. Two days ago, Umezu Takeo's ** scolding was like thunder, which made him feel embarrassed. He vowed to rectify the situation in Longquan Town and prevent the military incident from repeating. However, yesterday afternoon, there was still a derailment accident in Wujiadianzi Station, which put him in trouble again.
Umezu Takeo did not sit down when he entered the room, he threw his briefcase on the table, pressed his saber in one hand and supported his chin in the other, and paced back and forth in the room, his face pale. His demeanor made the people in the room dare not breathe, and everyone understood that this was his unique demeanor before the killing.
He is an arrogant and unscrupulous Kwantung Army Commander, and if he doesn't go his way, he will go on a killing spree. Not only did he kill innocent Chinese as he pleased, but even his compatriots from the Dongying Islands sometimes became ghosts under his sword. His cruelty and domineering made people fear him, earning him the nickname "Man-Eating Demon King".
Looking at Umezu Takeo's terrifying expression, Akio Yamada had a premonition of what was about to happen, and a layer of cold sweat couldn't help but ooze from his forehead. He knew that as long as the waist knife that had cut off countless heads was pulled out of the scabbard, he would inevitably die. However, to his surprise, Umezu Takeo did not make a move, but instead restrained the murderous aura on his face, came to him with a smile, and put his hand on his shoulder.
Yamada-kun, you made a mistake in your work, but the commander still trusts you. Considering your situation, he will give you another chance to make meritorious atonements. I have come to Longquan Town this time to shoulder the special mission of Commander Miyamoto, which is not only related to the fate of our Yamato nation, but also related to your future ......With that, he turned to the table, took something out of his briefcase, and motioned for Akio Yamada to pick it up.
Akio Yamada didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to take it with both hands. It was a cardboard envelope, and the words "Top Secret Document of the Kwantung Army Command" came into view. He hurriedly pulled out the official letter inside, looked at it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and the shadow of horror hung over his face.
How about it, Captain Yamada, it's up to you now. I hope you will be self-conscious, act prudently, and be foolproof, otherwise you will ......At this point, Umezu Takeo pulled out his waist knife sharply and slashed it down, and a corner of Akio Yamada's desk was cut off.
The railway station at the southern end of Longquan Town is a large transportation hub. At the moment, it is lying there quietly, waiting for the next train to arrive. However, beneath this calm exterior lies a deep undercurrent. The iron hooves of the Japanese have stepped into this land, and their ambition and cruelty are raging here. And the people of Longquan Town will have to struggle to survive in this storm.
