Devil's Army

"Who among you three is familiar with the situation around here? Please tell me about it." Leng Feng said to Shanmao, Zhuzi and Shanwazi.

"I'm quite familiar with it. I'm a hunter and I travel around frequently. I'm also familiar with the county town." said He Shanmao.

"Okay." Just when Leng Feng wanted He Shanmao to tell him about the situation nearby, He Guihua, supporting an old lady in her 60s, tremblingly walked towards Leng Feng. A large group of ordinary people followed behind them.

"Children, are you from the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces?" The old lady asked anxiously, holding Leng Feng's hand.

"Yes, grandma." Leng Feng's left hand was held by the old lady's hand, and he saluted with his right hand in a standard military salute.

"Captain Leng, this is my godmother. The one killed by the Japanese this morning is my godfather." He Guihua said with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry, Auntie. We will hold this debt against the devil. We will ask him to pay double when the time comes."

The common people each held the hands of the special forces members, fearing that if they let go, the members would disappear again.

"Children, you are finally here!"

"Finally I've waited for you."

"Children, the Japanese are not human. They robbed food, set fires, and killed people... There were more than 500 people in our village, but now there are less than 100 people left."...

The special forces members clenched their fists and were filled with righteous indignation. Listening to the tearful accusations of the common people, their hearts felt like being cut by a knife. These were things they could not imagine in their peaceful times.

"Fellow villagers, we have remembered your grudges, and we must make the Japanese pay double. I estimate that the Japanese will come again tomorrow, and there will be more people."

When the common people heard that the devils would come again tomorrow, and that more people would come, they immediately became agitated, whispering among themselves, with faces full of fear. It seemed that they had been severely harmed by the devils.

"Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, calm down, calm down, don't worry, with us here, not a single enemy soldier will be able to enter the village tomorrow."

"Fellow villagers, today we had Captain Leng and his men kill all of these Japanese devils. Not a single one escaped," said He Guihua.

"Yes, tomorrow we will make sure that no one of them can escape. Blood debts must be repaid with blood."

Only then did the people's emotions calm down a little.

Leng Feng checked his watch. It was 12:32 noon. He looked up at the sun. Since he had traveled through time, he didn't know if the time on his watch was accurate. Judging from the position of the sun and the shadow, it was indeed noon.

"It's time for lunch, folks. I'll treat you all to lunch today."

"Captain Leng, no, no, you come to help us fight the Japanese, how can we let you treat us to a meal?" Grandma He said, holding Leng Feng's hand. "Even if we have to eat tree bark and wild vegetables, we have to make sure you are full. Only when you are full can you have the strength to fight the Japanese."

"Grandma, fighting the Japanese is our job. There is no question of who helps whom," Leng Feng said with a sob.

The Chinese people are so simple and kind, but the Japanese don't treat them as human beings, and don't give them a way to live. They kill people as casually as crushing an ant.

"Grandma, don't worry, we have enough food. The devils just raided our place, and it's not easy for you either. I'll treat everyone to this meal first, and we'll have to trouble the villagers for our food supply in the future. In a few days we'll go and take back the food that the devils stole before. Why should we give them the food that we worked so hard to grow? We'd rather feed it to dogs than to these beasts."

"We have just arrived here, and we will have to trouble the villagers with many things in the future."

"He Guihua, lead the villagers to line up and get ready to receive lunch." Leng Feng ordered.

"Grey Wolf, take a few people to the car and get some of our rations.

"Yes." Gray Wolf saluted and took a few special forces members to the car to get rations.
