Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2700: Find joy in suffering!

As the night deepened, a group of Japanese soldiers hurriedly returned to the Hukou outpost with Marklov and Vladimir.

Inside the sentry post, the lights were dim, illuminating the tired and nervous faces.

The Japanese sergeant had no time to rest and immediately ordered the signalman to connect to the Japanese military headquarters in Songyuan.

On the other end of the phone, the voice of Colonel Nakajima soon came: "Speak."

At this time, Colonel Nakajima was a little impatient because he could not contact Kujo Miyakita, which made him very worried.

The Japanese sergeant quickly reported: "Report to your Excellency, according to reliable information, Your Excellency Jiujo Gongbei was attacked by the Anti-Japanese United Army in Kaoshantun."

"Nani?"

Nakajima was shocked, and immediately asked, "What about Lord Kujo?"

The Japanese sergeant had already thought of an excuse and said, "According to the people we captured, the Imperial Army seems to have retreated. But we don't know where they are retreating to. Besides, there are only a dozen of us, so we dare not go too deep."

"idiot!"

Colonel Nakajima was angry.

Seeing that Nakajima was in a bad mood, the Japanese sergeant was afraid of being angered, so he quickly added: "Sir, although we dare not get too close, we have captured two Soviets."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then Nakajima's deep voice came: "Very good, you did a good job. Regarding the matter of Mr. Kujo Miyakita, we will take immediate action. As for the two Soviets, you must keep a close eye on them. Tomorrow morning, escort them to the Japanese military headquarters in Songyuan. I will interrogate them personally."

"Hi!"

The Japanese sergeant stood at attention and saluted, then he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the other party hang up the phone.

He immediately turned around and gave an order to the Japanese soldiers behind him: "Increase vigilance tonight to ensure that the two Soviets do not escape. Tomorrow morning, we will escort them to Songyuan."

The Japs acted quickly. Some were responsible for guarding and urging the puppet soldiers at the Tiger's Mouth outpost to be in high spirits; while others were guarding Markov and Vladimir to ensure that they could not escape.

In the darkness of night, the Hukou outpost was brightly lit and under complete martial law.

At this time, Markov and Vladimir were detained in a temporary cell.

This makeshift cell is located in a corner of the outpost and was hastily built from a few rough wooden boards and rusty iron bars.

The cell was small, barely enough for two people to sit down. The walls were full of cracks due to years of disrepair, and rats could occasionally be seen running through them, leaving behind long, thin footprints.

Markov and Vladimir sat side by side on the cold ground.

Vladimir patted Markov's shoulder gently and whispered, "Markov, don't worry, we will definitely find a chance to escape."

Markov nodded slightly, but deep down he felt that there was little hope.

The reason why he nodded was just to comfort his companion.

Vladimir also knew that it might not be easy for the two of them to escape at this time.

They couldn't do it on the road, let alone now.

They were locked up in a very tight and well-protected sentry post. The outer wall of the sentry post was more than ten meters high and as solid as stone.

At this point, unless they turned into birds and flew away, they would never be able to escape from the Tiger's Mouth Post.

In order to ease the tense atmosphere, Vladimir forced a smile and told Markov about his youth.

It was a sunny morning, and he and his childhood sweetheart did wonderful things in the stable.

Maklov suddenly became interested in sex, and even forgot that they were deep in the enemy camp. ··············

At the same time, Ma Hu was personally leading a team to search in the direction of the Japanese army's Hukou outpost.

However, why was Ma Hu so sure that Markov and Vladimir were heading towards the Tiger's Mouth Outpost?

That's because it was a coincidence.

As mentioned before, there are a total of three Japanese outposts within a range of 50 kilometers near Phoenix Mountain.

And the Tiger's Mouth Post is one of them.

It just so happens that Ma Hu is the leader of the team.

Of course, even if Ma Hu led the team, it was impossible for him to know that Markov and Vladimir were heading for the Tiger's Mouth Post.

But on the way to the Hukou outpost, Ma Hu saw the footprints left by Marklov and Vladimir.

The footprints of Marklov and Vladimir were different from those of the Anti-Japanese United Army, as they were wearing Soviet military boots.

So after a comparison, Ma Hu recognized it.

He immediately ordered the signalman to send a telegram to the captain, saying that they had found the traces of Marklov and Vladimir, which was also a way to report safety to Duanwu.

Then Ma Hu led his men and followed the footprints northward. After walking about ten kilometers, the footprints suddenly disappeared.

But the last footprints left were into the woods.

Ma Hu didn't know what was going on, and felt something was wrong. What were these two Soviets doing? Why were they not sleeping in the middle of the night? Were they patrolling the mountains?

But Ma Hu didn't care and took his men to chase to the northeast.

As a result, after walking another ten kilometers, we found the footprints of Marklov and Vladimir on the mountain road again.

But at this time, there were more footprints and blood on the ground.

The blood naturally belonged to Markov and Vladimir, because the two were beaten by the devils for more than 20 minutes.

Ma Hu looked at the footprints on the ground and naturally knew that they were left by the Japanese's rubber shoes.

Moreover, the direction the Japanese left was exactly the Tiger's Mouth outpost.

A trace of uneasiness arose in Ma Hu's heart.

He immediately asked the signalman to send another telegram to Duanwu, telling him that Markov and Vladimir were most likely captured by the Japanese.

Just at this moment, Ma Hu was about to lead his men to continue the pursuit towards the Tiger's Mouth Outpost. But at this moment, they saw a light in the northwest direction, along the winding mountain road, which was nearly one kilometer long.

Ma Hu took out a telescope and looked around. Although he couldn't see clearly, he felt that there must be a lot of people on the other side.

He was a little conflicted now. He wanted to continue chasing, but he also wanted to go and see what was going on with that fire dragon.

In desperation, he could only continue to ask for instructions from the team leader - Duanwu!

At this time, Duanwu was gathering the Chunjianghao Second Detachment, which was the Mashan Artillery Detachment.

Duanwu realized that something was wrong after receiving Ma Hu's news. According to the time, if Markov and Vladimir were captured by the Japanese at the Hukou Outpost, they should be at the Hukou Outpost now.

So Duanwu had to attack the Hukou outpost at night to rescue the two people.

He also prayed that the Japanese did not transfer the two people overnight, otherwise Markov and Vladimir would be in danger.

Moreover, if these two people were lost in the Anti-Japanese Brigade, how would he explain to the Soviet Union? He would probably have to give up his weapons and equipment.

So when he heard the exact news from Ma Hu, he started to gather the team! .
