The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression Begins in Songhu

Chapter 269 Finally Saw It
After Hu Biao's cold and ruthless voice fell, the Japanese prisoners of war hadn't even had a chance to say anything.

The foreign journalist Robert Capa was already extremely agitated and shouted loudly: "Hu, you can't do this! For Jesus' sake! Please give up this terrible idea!"

Such a massacre of prisoners is inhumane. You are destined to become a famous general, and you should never do such a dishonorable thing.

Upon hearing this, Hu Biao's face was filled with sorrow. Pointing at the Japanese prisoners, he asked in return:
"I only killed 57 Japanese prisoners, and you say I'm inhumane."

Then go ask these beasts, when the Japanese devils massacred 300,000 prisoners of war who had laid down their arms, or even unarmed civilians, in Nanjing a few months ago, why they didn't show any humanity?

"At that time, why didn't they give your brother Jesus any face?"

Robert Capa instinctively wanted to refute it, saying he had never heard of the Nanjing Massacre and it was impossible; because no human being with even a shred of humanity would do something so cruel.

As a result, we saw that those who heard Annie's translation, even though they did not participate in the defense of Nanjing.

However, the Japanese prisoners of war who learned the truth about the Nanjing Massacre through other means showed a strong sense of guilt on their faces at this moment.

Robert Capa gasped, unable to utter a single rebuttal.

He even secretly decided that after leaving Taierzhuang, he must find out exactly what happened in Nanjing a few months ago.

Subsequently, driven by bayonets, 57 Japanese soldiers had no choice but to jump into the pit.

While they were there, many seriously wounded people were screaming in agony.

Ignoring the desperate pleas of the Japanese soldiers, Hu Biao, with the idea of ​​collecting some interest for his suffering compatriots, immediately set out to act.

He rushed over immediately, picked up an entrenching tool, and began burying soil into the pit.

Following closely behind, a group of transmigrators from modern worlds, including Lao Yu, Zanana, Van Gogh, and Mr. Nanze, as well as the brothers of the Independent Regiment, also joined this group.

After everyone worked together, they filled the large pit in no time.

But Lao Yu, a local native born after 87, still felt something was missing; after thinking of something, he galloped towards a warhorse.

He mounted his horse and shouted:
"The brothers all mounted their horses and rode back and forth over the pit several times to tamp down the soil."

For the next twenty minutes, the large pit was repeatedly trampled over by a dense thud of hooves until the soil on the ground was completely compacted before the group finally stopped.

"This time next year, the wheat in this field will definitely grow exceptionally well."

After uttering this thought, Hu Biao paused for two seconds before shouting again, "Brothers, let's go, back to Taierzhuang..."

******
Half an hour after setting off, when the team arrived at a deserted village, Hu Biao, who was driving the lead truck, suddenly slammed on the brakes.

Faced with the hesitant looks of the crowd, Hu Biao spoke:
"Brothers, I suddenly remembered something very important and need to have a meeting with Commander Anne and a few others to discuss it; but it won't take long, about half an hour will be enough."

This is a very important matter. You should all stay where you are and rest. No one should come near to eavesdrop.

After saying that, he carried Annie, who was in the passenger seat, on his back, along with a box full of gold and a bunch of miscellaneous spoils, and headed towards the village.

Lao Yu and the others didn't say anything, but they helped their seriously injured comrade up and followed with some spoils of war.

Finally, together with Hu Biao, they entered a house in the village and lit an oil lamp.

Hu Biao and his group did this not because they had thought of something urgent and needed to hold an emergency meeting without others being able to get close.

In reality, they simply wanted to leave quietly.

After all, they couldn't guarantee that when they returned to the modern world, there wouldn't be a strange scene of a flash of golden light followed by disappearance.

This scene must not be seen by people in this dimension, otherwise no one can guarantee what terrible consequences might occur.

So, having no other choice, I had to come up with this excuse and plan to quietly leave the group.

But just as Hu Biao and Annie placed the messages and letters they had written on the table in the room, a sudden realization dawned on everyone's minds:
In ten seconds, they will be teleported back to the modern world.

This situation was similar to the previous times they had traveled back in time, and they didn't feel anything was wrong.

Unlike before, back then, in order to bring back more spoils, Annie ignored the fact that her waist wound would cause her excruciating pain whenever she moved.

She bent down and picked up the box that Hu Biao had put down earlier. Coincidentally, the box was placed right in front of a water vat in the room, so when Annie looked up, she saw a piece of writing floating on the surface of the vat, which was more than half full of water.

The content of these handwritings is as follows:
Congratulations to all the time travelers, this time travel journey has come to an end.

Among them, Uncle Bo, Chen Tang, Xu Feng, Mo Shuiyan, and Huang Yizhi died in battle during this time travel. Their souls will be immediately resurrected after being transported back to the modern world 87 years later, but they will not participate in the next mission.

Whether or not to participate in subsequent time-travel journeys is currently undecided.

The souls of Hu Biao, Annie, the Wizard, Zanana, Lao Yu, Van Gogh, and Mr. Nanze will be transported back to the modern world, and their injuries will be completely healed.

One month later, Hu Biao and the other seven people will start a new journey of travel.

The reward for this mission is that all twelve individuals, including Hu Biao, will receive a slight improvement in their overall physical qualities, including stamina, strength, speed, nerve reaction, and recovery ability.

However, because the twelve individuals improved their physical qualities at different rates, they will receive different evaluations.

The five of them—the Wizard, Zanana, Old Yu, Van Gogh, and Mr. Nanze—have all received a combined physical enhancement. Hmph! They're just a few slightly stronger greyhounds.

Annie, Huang Yizhi, Mo Shuiyan, Xu Feng, Chen Tang, and the other two have improved their physical fitness twice in total. That's nothing special! They're just some pretty good greyhounds.

Uncle Bo's physical fitness has improved three times in total, which is alright! He's already a king among greyhounds, but unfortunately he's still a greyhound.

Hu Biao's physical fitness has improved four times, which is quite impressive! He's already the king of greyhounds, and he remains a greyhound.

Friendly reminder: The number of upgrades listed above only represents the upgrade data obtained by the transmigrator and does not represent the individual's final strength; the individual's final strength must also include their inherent physical attributes.

The young master and coriander will be punished by direct annihilation for attempting to escape and alter history, and will not be resurrected in the modern world.

In addition! Besides his physical fitness improving again, Hu Biao also received a reward of master-level cooking skills in dishes such as vegetable pancakes, Tengxian braised pork noodles, and pickled bamboo shoots with pork.

For the modern world 87 years later, the additional rewards for the Chinese family have been determined and will be distributed subsequently.

Annie is an avid reader of online novels, so she has the ability to read quickly, reading ten lines at a glance. She finished reading the text before it completely disappeared and basically remembered all the content.

However, the content was so outrageous that it left her speechless with shock.

After realizing what was happening, and just as he was about to say something to his other transmigrated companions, he found his body disappearing, and the return to the modern world had already begun...

******
Thanks to Hu Biao and his men hiding in the room, the other brothers of the Northern Jiangsu Independent Regiment were naturally unable to witness the miraculous scene when they left.

However, they followed orders and rested where they were, until the sky began to lighten.

When they still didn't see Hu Biao and the others who claimed the meeting would only take half an hour, they naturally sensed something was wrong.

Some of the more influential men went into the village together and called out the names of several officials, but received no response.

They rushed into the room but found no trace of Commander Hu or his men.

Fortunately, on the conspicuous table, there was a stack of envelopes and a note. The note had few words and a simple meaning:
Hu Biao and his men might get into big trouble for killing the prisoners without permission; so after discussing it, they decided to run away first to avoid implicating everyone else.

After the brothers escorted the wounded to the field hospital, everyone could choose to either join other friendly forces or disband.

The spoils from the cars and carriages are at everyone's disposal; if fate allows, we will meet again in the future.

Oh, right! I'll just hand over the letters on the table to Commander Li; he'll take care of them.

After reading the message on the note, the people looked at each other in bewilderment; after discussing it for a while, they finally decided to do as Commander Hu instructed.

They continued their journey, transporting the wounded to a field hospital and delivering the letter to the hospital director.

However, apart from a very few who were willing to defect to other friendly forces, most of the remaining spoils were divided up haphazardly and then went home.

Before they left, they agreed that if Commander Hu ever needed their help again, they would definitely go.

But those few short days spent fighting the Japanese in the Northern Jiangsu Independent Regiment became the best story and memory they would have for the rest of their lives...
