Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal

(Thanks to Kirisame Marisa for the tip, more chapters will be added on 3/3)

Shuangshan County was easily captured, and this small-scale attack was not strong at all.

The Punishment Army began to settle accounts in the city, starting with the devils that gathered in the warehouse area. The friendly Punishment Army soldiers kindly invited them out, and then let the Qingzhuang go into the island space to communicate and learn from their friendly seniors. Their families were sent to Warhammer 40k by the Punishment Army to enjoy life.

In addition to these devils, the punitive army was also looking for traitorous armed forces and traitorous officials in the city. These damn guys had declared their surrender when the Manchurian Empire was established, and they were doomed to die.

The soldiers of the punitive army were guided by the people to rush into government agencies or the homes of traitors and arrest them. What awaited them was execution after a public trial.

But before that, there is the much-anticipated session of counting the seized goods!

There are a large amount of supplies in the warehouse, enough food for 3 people for half a year. These are the rations prepared by the Japanese for the pioneer group until the first batch of grain harvest.

A large amount of precious side dishes, canned food, salt, sugar, as well as luxury goods such as tobacco and alcohol.

Cotton, lots of cotton, countless cotton! There were also some finished cotton clothes and quilts, enough for at least 2000 people!

Soybean oil was piled in iron barrels, occupying several warehouses. It was initially estimated that there were more than 5000 barrels. The people of Hutoushan could finally eat something greasy.

49 silver dollars, 17 Japanese yen, 130 kilograms of gold, and various luxury goods were seized from the homes of the government and the pioneers.

There are more than 1200 pioneer families, and all their furniture will be taken away, so that 1200 families can have a prosperous start.

The punitive army soldiers cleared out the people in the warehouse area. Li Qinwu opened a portal in a warehouse, and the punitive army soldiers carried the supplies in like ants moving house.

Li Qinwu sighed, it is great to have a portal. After conquering an area, you can take away 100% of the spoils. Other troops have limited carrying capacity and can only take away the precious items.

Just as he was expressing his feelings, Li Weiguo found him with a grim look on his face, as if something bad had happened.

"Weiguo, what's wrong? Are you so unhappy after winning the battle?"

Li Qinwu asked cheerfully.

Li Weiguo sighed.

"Two things. Master, we just found the local household registration office and confirmed that there are 1 households and 2 people in the area. What are you going to do with these people?"

Li Qinwu asked in confusion: "Didn't we discuss this before we came here? We were supposed to take them away by train. We have so many trains now, and we can take them all away in a few rounds. What happened? Did something unexpected happen?"

Li Weiguo nodded.

"There are people willing to go with us, but less than half. As for the other half..."

Li Weiguo used mind sharing to send a video to Li Qinwu. The video showed soldiers from the Punitive Army knocking on doors from house to house, saying that the Punitive Army would leave soon and asked the local people to go with them.

Their punitive army has killed so many Japanese devils here, and the Japanese devils are likely to retaliate against them. Even if they don't, their lives will not be easy when the second, third, and fourth batches of pioneer groups arrive.

It would be better for them to go with the punitive soldiers now. The punitive soldiers promised to send them to the south, give each family 20 oceans as resettlement allowance, and help them make a living in the south or cultivate land.

Now the Punishment Army and Chongqing are cooperating well. The Dragon Company will pay and Chongqing will cooperate in the land reclamation. There are so many lands in the south waiting to be developed, so there is no shortage of land.

Moreover, Julong Company wants to build a large number of industrial zones in Sichuan, which requires a lot of workers. As long as these people are willing to go with them, they will not lack jobs.

It's a pity that the Chinese people's obsession with their hometown is engraved in their bones. No matter how the punitive soldiers explained the pros and cons, the local people were still unwilling to leave. Even if the punitive soldiers said that they would retaliate if the Japanese came, they would not leave.

They said that the Japs were not that bad, not really. Instead, it was your Punishment Army that was the problem. It is obvious that if your Punishment Army had not come, they could have lived a good life. The Japs have killed a group of people when they came, and now they are not killing anymore. It is all the fault of the Punishment Army. I wonder how many more people the Japs will have to kill before they stop when they come back. If you, the Punishment Army, want to fight against the Japanese, why don’t you go somewhere else?

Li Qinwu was speechless as he watched the local people blaming the disciplinary soldiers on the screen.

After a long silence, Li Qinwu asked, "How many people are willing to go with us?"

"The exact number cannot be estimated, but it is estimated to be no more than 2."

"Okay! Then take these 30 people with you. Send someone to tell them that when they arrive in the south, the Julong Company's factory will give priority to recruiting people from among them. They will be given housing upon landing, and 40 acres of land if they don't want to work. In addition, a family will be given yuan for resettlement!"

Li Weiguo asked: "What about those who don't want to leave?"

Li Qinwu looked at Shuangshan County. Smoke was rising from the county town and the people had started making fires and cooking. They seemed to have temporarily forgotten about the war.

"This is a war, a life-and-death struggle between one nation and another. It is serious, tragic, and will kill people. Everyone must take risks and be responsible for their own choices.

We cannot say that we will not fight the Japanese because we are afraid of sacrifice. Even if we selfishly know that it is not us who will be sacrificed, we must still fight the Japanese firmly!

Let the soldiers do a good job of propaganda and let the people know what the devils will do after we leave. If they still choose to stay, we respect their choice. "

Li Weiguo sighed and could only let the soldiers do propaganda. His Punishment Army was very responsible in fighting. Wherever they went, they would take the local people away. They knew what the Japanese would do when they came, so they would be responsible for taking the Japanese to the rear. As a result, there were still people who were unwilling to leave and accused them of not fighting the Japanese. This... Hey, the Japanese deserved to die!

"You said there were two things. What was the other one?"

Li Qinwu asked.

Speaking of the second thing, Li Weiguo's face became even uglier. He still used mind sharing to pass a series of pictures to Li Qinwu.

The picture shows the unprocessed corpses in the canal outside Shuangshan County. The guerrillas rescued by Li Batian brought them there. These were anti-Japanese people who were captured and killed by the devils, and many of them were comrades of Chen Erhu and his group.

Chen Erhu also took Li Batian to a small valley, where they found a pile of corpses buried under the snow. These were not anti-Japanese people, but civilians from the rural areas near Shuangshan County!

Winter was coming, and so many Japanese pioneer groups were coming in again. Food was in short supply, so the Japanese pioneer groups took many civilians to the mountains and slaughtered them in order to save food.
