Chapter 42: The Wu An Tragedy (4)

  In the crowd of fleeing people, Geng Wu's wife hugged her three-year-old son and took advantage of the chaos to hide with the child in a ditch by the side of the road. Unfortunately, she was discovered by the devils. Several devils blocked her in the ditch. Several devils approached her slowly with lewd smiles, one of them using his bayonet to pick the child out of her arms.

  "Return my child!", Geng Wu's wife wanted to rush up and grab back her own child. But the Japanese soldier rotated his bayonet a few times before violently slamming it into the ground, the child convulsed in agony for a moment before dying.

  "You devils! You're not human, return my child!", Geng Wu's wife rushed up like a madwoman to fight the ghosts. Just now, when the ghost used his bayonet to stab the child, he tore a piece of her blouse, and originally her clothes were not very good, after this struggle, her chest was torn open even more, revealing half of her Ru Fang (breast) and a patch of snowy white skin, she hurriedly covered her chest with her hand.

  "Ah, flower girl!", one of the sharp-eyed devils spotted her snow-white body and instantly had lustful thoughts, shouting non-stop. The other devils were also attracted to Geng Wu's wife's snow-white flesh, their eyes gleaming with lust as they slowly approached her. Geng Wu's wife knew these devils wanted to ravish her and continuously backed away. Her snow-white flesh continued to stimulate the devils' beastly desires, but how could she, a weak and small woman, possibly resist several devils?! The devils rushed forward, pinned her to the ground, and took turns violating her. Finally, they stripped her naked, tied her to a tree by the side of the road, cut off her trousers with their war knives, and in the midst of her mournful cries, inserted a wooden stake into her vagina.

  "Don't resist! Take off your clothes and serve the master well, maybe he'll spare you." The traitor Wang Deming said with a lustful smile to a girl.

  "Damn it! Traitorous dog! You won't die a good death!", the girl cursed at him.

  "Damn it!", Wang Deman was suddenly cursed by her and rushed to chop the girl with his knife. The girl subconsciously raised her hand to block, and one knife chopped off her left hand. Her snow-white hand fell to the ground. A stream of fresh blood spurted out from the girl's wrist.

  "Ah!", the girl cried out in agony, the pain almost causing her to faint. Large beads of sweat rolled down her face. The girl couldn't help but convulse violently.

  "Traitor! You won't die a good death! The King of Hell will come for you sooner or later!", the girl, enduring the pain, cursed Wang De again. The traitor, enraged, swung his knife and stabbed the girl's abdomen once more. After being humiliated, the girl died with resentment.

  These devils were originally following Wang Deman to collect grain, but on the way they encountered a group of fleeing common people. These fleeing common people had heard that the devils were coming to sweep through the area and were preparing to hide from them. Who would have thought that these devils, while chasing Zhang Guifang and others, crossed over several villages and ran into the village ahead? The villagers happened to run into these devils on their escape route, and in the end only two clever children managed to evade the devils' pursuit. More than a dozen common people fell victim to the devils' cruel hands and were brutally killed in this desolate wilderness. These corpses lay here for seven days. Seven days later, villagers from nearby passed through and discovered the corpses, which had been eaten by wild dogs, rats, and other animals until they were in disarray. The bodies had also begun to rot. They then took down Geng Wu's wife's corpse from a tree and buried it together with the other corpses in the ground beside them.

  "Taijun! I've heard news about the Eighth Route Army, they're in Yangyicun Village to the east." The traitor Wang Deman said to the devil Pingtang.

  "Oh? Yangcun Village has a Eighth Route?", Pingzhuan asked in puzzlement.

  "Yes! I asked a villager and he told me." Wang Deming said to Hirata.

  "Are they unwilling to reveal the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army?" Pingtang asked in puzzlement.

  "They wouldn't tell me, so I had to use a little trick," said Wang De, the traitor, with a sly smile all over his face.

  "Good job!", Pingzhao patted his shoulder with great satisfaction. The trick that Wang Deman, the traitor, had mentioned was actually a threat to Yang Lao Han of Yaogou Village, which he had learned from his mouth.

  Yesterday, Wang Deman led a small detachment of devils to surround the village of Yaogou, attempting to capture the guerrilla fighters. The villagers saw the devils coming and began to flee in all directions. A group of devils first smashed open the door of Yang Zhaowen's house. The Yang family was close to the village entrance, and before they could escape, they were blocked inside by the devils. All eight members of the family were frightened and hid in the house, not daring to come out. The devils fired several shots into the house, and all the family members fell into a pool of blood. Finally, the devils set fire to the house. In an instant, a fierce fire broke out, burning the house with a loud crackling sound.

  Another group of devils, led by Wang Demao, kicked open the door to Yang Jizhi's home. They gathered all the family members in the courtyard, where they saw old man Yang holding his grandson, and Wang Demao suddenly got a wicked idea.

  "Old man! Do you know who in the village is a member of the Eighth Route Army? Whose family has someone participating in the guerrilla team?" Wang Deman asked, pointing at Old Man Yang.

  "I don't know, sir!", Yang replied.

  "Are you not going to speak? You old thing! If you don't speak, your whole family will be finished, are you going to speak or not?" Wang Deman scolded.

  "I really don't know what this 'Ba Lu' is!", said Yang Lao Han with a sorrowful face.

  "You few, make the girls work." Wang Deman said to the Japanese soldiers, pointing at the three young women of the Yang family. The Japanese soldiers immediately understood his meaning and with a lustful smile they went forward and seized the three young women into the house.

  "I'll fight you to the death!", Yang Lao Han's son rushed up and was about to engage in a fierce battle with the devils. He was shot dead by the devils. At this time, the sound of the devils' lewd laughter and women's cries for help came from inside the house. Seeing his own daughter-in-law and two daughters being ravished by the devils, Yang Lao Han's wife could no longer bear it. She had just cried over her son, and now she saw her daughter-in-law and daughters being ravished by the devils in the house. Like a madwoman, she rushed up and grappled with the devil soldiers. She was beheaded by the devils, her head rolling to the ground, blood gushing out like a fountain.

  "Are you going to talk or not? You old thing! As long as you confess, I'll immediately tell them to spare your family. Otherwise, they'll wipe out your whole family, and you wouldn't want that, would you?" Wang Deming threatened.

  "Don't worry! As long as you speak up, I'll let you all go immediately, and also this little grandson of yours. You wouldn't want your little grandson to die with you, would you?" Wang Deman said temptingly.

  "Really? Is the officer really willing to let them off?", Yang Lao Han asked distrustfully.

  "Of course! I'm a man of my word, as long as you're willing to reveal the route they took, I'll immediately order them to release you. How about it?" Wang Deming pretended to be kind and helped Yang Lao Han adjust his clothes, and after some consideration, Yang Lao Han finally believed this traitor's words.

  "Alright! I'm telling you, I know there are Eighth Route Army in Yangyi Village, I've seen them myself, really!", Yang Lao Han continued to explain, actually their village also had people who participated in the guerrilla troops, but his idea was that even if he told them now that Yangyi has Eighth Route Army what would happen? First let his family avoid the devils' harm, wait for the devils to leave and then go send the message it's not too late. Maybe now the Eighth Route Army in Yangyi Village had already left. With a lucky psychology, Yang Lao Han spoke out about the guerrilla troops.

  "Really?", Wang Deman asked with great distrust.

  "A thousand truths! How dare I deceive the officials?" Yang old man defended.

  "Is there an Eighth Route Army in Yaogou Village?", "There is no Eighth Route Army in Yaogou Village, although they did come here before, but later left." In fact, the old man told a lie. There were indeed people from their village who joined the guerrilla army, but for the safety of his fellow villagers, he didn't tell the truth.

  "Great!", Wang De gave a hearty clap on Yang's shoulder with a big smile on his face.

  "Take good care of him," Wang Deming said, pointing at Old Yang to the devils.

  "Officer! Didn't you say you would let us go? Why have you changed your mind?" Yang Lao Han asked excitedly. But Wang De Man didn't stop at that. Several devils came in front of Yang Lao Han, and with one stab of a bayonet, the child in his arms was killed right there. Immediately after, they stabbed Yang Lao Han repeatedly. Poor Yang Lao Han was deceived by Wang De Man like this. Even after he died, his eyes were wide open, truly "dying with his eyes open".
