Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 757 Interrogation of Tsudajima Ishi

Given the current situation between China and Japan, the outbreak of the Battle of Jiangcheng was inevitable.

In May 1938, the Japanese army captured Xuzhou, and the Japanese devils were actively preparing to expand their war of aggression.

According to their established plan, they intended to divide their forces into three groups and besiege Jiangcheng together.

The first route, mainly composed of a small contingent of the North China Expeditionary Army, advanced through Zhengzhou to Anqing, serving as a forward base for capturing Jiangcheng.

The second route, with the main force of the North China Expeditionary Army, advanced along the Huai River to the area north of the Dabie Mountains, taking the Pinghan Railway and heading straight for Jiangcheng from Wusheng Pass.

The third route, mainly composed of the Central China Expeditionary Army, advanced westward along the Yangtze River, pressing close to Hankou and Hanyang. If the Japanese strategic plan had been successfully implemented, the Nationalist government would have had a very difficult time resisting them in the initial stages of their hasty retreat during the Battle of Xuzhou.

However, the breach of the dike at Huayuankou caused widespread flooding, disrupting the Japanese strategic plan.

The main force of the Japanese Second North China Expeditionary Army was blocked by the river at the foot of the Dabie Mountains.

The Third Route Central China Expeditionary Army was also forced to abandon its plan to launch a major attack on Jiangcheng along the Huai River, and instead advance step by step along both banks of the Yangtze River with its main force.

This gave the Nationalist government nearly two months to catch its breath.

By mid-June 1938, the Nationalist government had mobilized a total of 14 army groups and 50 corps from the army, navy, and air force around Jiangcheng, with 200 combat aircraft and more than 30 ships, totaling nearly one million people, to organize and construct defensive formations along natural barriers such as Poyang Lake and the Dabie Mountains.

A large-scale battle is now inevitable.

The new headquarters of the Special Service Department in Shancheng and Luojiawan.

Dai Yunong's office.

After Ye Shaohong finished reviewing the telegram, Dai Yunong briefly recounted what he knew.

This also put Ye Shaohong under immense pressure once again.

He put down the telegram document he was holding.

He loudly pledged his loyalty.

"Please rest assured, Chief, I am confident that I will be able to get Tsudajima Ishi to talk before nightfall tonight."

"We must find out the details."

After saying this, Ye Shaohong didn't delay any longer. He saluted Dai Yunong and walked out.

Ten minutes later.

Ye Shaohong had arrived at the interrogation cell. This time, he wasn't alone.

Behind Ye Shaohong followed Li Yunlong and the garrison soldier who was skilled at skinning and deboning.

"boom!"

He kicked open the door to the room where Tsudajima Ishi was.

Before Tsudajima Ishi could react, Ye Shaohong, with a gloomy face, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and two members of the Second Division stepped forward.

He grabbed Tsudajima Ishi's arms.

"Director Ye."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you want to overturn our cooperation agreement?"

At this moment, Tsudajima Ishi was still unaware of what had happened, and he was still thinking of using past reasons to change his current predicament.

But now the situation is different. Now that we know the details of Tsudajima Ishi's family life, his words and actions have lost their credibility.

In addition, Ye Shaohong had long since had enough of these little devils.

Upon hearing Tsudajima Ishi's urgent shouts, Ye Shaohong stepped forward and slapped him hard across the face.

"damn thing!"

"You don't really think we'd believe you're surrendering, do you?"

"I'm telling you, your plan has been leaked!"

"If you don't confess the truth today, this day next year will be your death day!"

After letting out a fierce curse, Ye Shaohong turned around and looked at Li Yunlong.

"take away!"

Although Li Yunlong's bloodthirstiness was not as intense as Chi Tiecheng's, he came from the streets and the underworld and was not someone to be trifled with.

In addition, during this time, Li Yunlong was also infected with some patriotism by following Ye Shaohong.

He also harbored hatred towards the Japanese.

Upon receiving Ye Shaohong's order, Li Yunlong grabbed Tsudajima Ishi's hair and dragged him away like a dead dog.

Tsudajima Ishi was quickly pulled into the interrogation room.

After being bound with ropes, the interrogation staff, who had been waiting in the interrogation room for a long time, began their operation.

The order of punishment begins with waterboarding, which causes the least harm to the body.

Next came whipping, chili water, branding irons, the tiger bench, bamboo skewers...

After the entire torture procedure, Tsudajima Ishi, lying on the rack, was covered in blood and unrecognizable. Throughout this process, Ye Shaohong did not utter a single question.

He just sat there, smoking, staring coldly.

It wasn't until Tsudajima Ishi fainted for the second time and was revived by being splashed with salt water that Ye Shaohong finally threw away the cigarette he was holding and stepped in front of Tsudajima Ishi.

"Mr. Tsuda."

"I must say, you really are a warrior."

"Knowing full well that my Special Service Department is a den of dragons and tigers, you still dared to risk barging in."

"What... you're still not going to confess?"

While they were talking, Ye Shaohong casually picked up a red-hot branding iron from the brazier next to him and pressed it directly onto Tsudajima Ishi's chest.

Amidst the sizzling sound of flesh burning, a plume of steam rose.

Tsudajima Ishi also threw his head back and let out a painful howl. Blood mixed with saliva and sweat began to drip down the corner of Tsudajima Ishi's mouth.

A few minutes later.

As the temperature of the soldering iron gradually decreased and the iron plate returned to its original dark color from red, Ye Shaohong angrily stopped pressing the iron.

He raised his hand and grabbed Tsudajima Ishi's hair.

He pulled up Tsudajima Ishi.

"Say!"

"What are your plans?"

"What are they planning to do by secretly mobilizing over two hundred elite military personnel to infiltrate the mountain city as undercover agents?"

Ruthless, insane...

At this moment, Ye Shaohong finally resembled the Seventh King of Hell.

Ye Shaohong pulled his hair and lifted his head. Tsudajima Ishi's eyes were slightly narrowed, and a hint of mockery was revealed in his somewhat dull gaze.

Then, Tsudajima Ishi laughed.

He grinned widely, blood dripping from his mouth, and let out a chilling laugh like a duck being grabbed by the neck.

"Found?"

"Haha, you guys are a few days ahead of me."

"Let me guess what price you all paid to get to the bottom of this."

"The intelligence agents of the Special Service who were infiltrated in Shanghai have all been wiped out, haven't they?"

"And you, Seventh Brother Yama, weren't you hailed as a rising star and a master detective in the Special Service? In the end, didn't you become our pawn?"

"You have lost!" "You have lost miserably. You have lost your intelligence agents in Shanghai. In the upcoming Battle of Jiangcheng, you will be completely deaf and blind. You will no longer be able to change your fate of defeat!"

Tsudajima Ishi may have truly been prepared to die, or perhaps he was already aware of his fate. Faced with the severe interrogation personally presided over by Ye Shaohong, Tsudajima Ishi acted with extreme madness.

He smiled smugly.

He was acting like a madman, freely expressing his feelings.

This inadvertently angered Ye Shaohong.

"Hold!"

"You bastard, don't think that just because of this, I can't do anything to you."

"Electrocute him!"
