Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2422 Aoki Devil’s beautiful vision!

Huo Feng spread his hands and said, "I don't know where he came from. He suddenly appeared and left suddenly. Yesterday I was wondering who he was and whether he was a bandit from around here."

"bandit?"

Qingmu frowned, because since Huofeng said so, he also felt that this was a possibility.

The bandits are lawless, so it's understandable that they come to Huofeng to show off their power.

Aoki asked, "Where are these bandits? Didn't you ask?"

At this point, Qingmu rolled his eyes and continued to ask: "Did he run to the city just to say he liked me?"

Huo Feng sighed and said, "How is this possible? We didn't even know each other before, so how could he come directly to me? He heard that there was food in Phoenix City, so he came to Phoenix City to borrow food.

I said that all the food belonged to the Imperial Army and I dared not lend it to him. He said that the Imperial Army was nothing.

At this time, my men heard voices in the house and came with lanterns to inquire. At this time, he saw my face and changed his mind and wanted to marry me.

How could I, Huo Feng, be such a casual person? I rejected him on the spot and set a trap for him, forcing him to get out through the dog hole in the west of the city.

And as long as he takes that path, he will surely die.

It’s a pity that the other party didn’t dig any dog ​​hole at all, but went straight out of the main gate.

Mr. Aoki, do you still think that I am colluding with some rebels? If I were colluding with some rebels, I'm afraid you would have run out of food long ago."

Qingmu fell into deep thought, analyzing whether what Huo Feng said was true.

The traitors under his command also reported to him that the situation was similar to what Huo Feng said.

It was said that two people were captured by people in the city and then sent to the city lord's mansion for interrogation. As a result, at night, the guard at the south gate was knocked unconscious and someone escaped from the city.

Of course, he also heard another set of arguments, that is, Yarusaqi's arguments.

Yarusaqi said that Huo Feng colluded with the resistance organization to steal the food of the Imperial Army. Not only did the other party kill the Imperial Army in the city, but they were also let go by Huo Feng.

Of course, Qingmu didn't completely believe what Yarusaqi said.

Moreover, his traitors had also inquired about it. The two outsiders were indeed arrested, and later escaped from the prison in the main city, and beat the guards when leaving the city.

Although no one died, the guards were embarrassed and angry, and many of them vowed to catch the people who beat them.

Therefore, it can be inferred that Yarusaqi must have lied.

Moreover, Qingmu could easily understand why Yarusaqi lied, because he was just trying to get the position of city lord.

But Qingmu really didn't like people lying to him, and if she wasn't Yalusaqi's daughter, and he was still satisfied with her, then Yalusaqi might not even be able to keep his head, let alone become the city lord.

So Qingmu nodded and said: "In this case, I can't blame Miss Huofeng too much. But since you have made your choice, then follow me back to Songyuan, and I will hold a grand wedding for us there."

Huo Feng knew that Qingmu had lost his patience. If she didn't make some promises to him, he might take her away by force.

  Thinking of this, Huo Feng smiled and said, "Mr. Qingmu is too anxious. And even if we want to get married, shouldn't Mr. Qingmu respect the customs of our local people?

Besides, I am the lord of Phoenix City. Don’t you think it’s too abrupt for me to go back to Songyuan with you to get married?"

Qingmu thought about it and felt that what Huo Feng said was indeed reasonable. As the mayor of Phoenix City, it was indeed a bit unreasonable for Huo Feng to go back with him to get married.

So Aoki asked back: "So what do you want?"

Huo Feng said, "If Mr. Qingmu really wants to spend the rest of his life with me, he should at least marry me according to our local customs, right? In Songyuan City, Mr. Qingmu should at least decorate his mansion, then ask all the gentlemen and ladies to propose marriage, choose an auspicious day, and then ride a horse to marry me and take me to Songyuan in a grand manner. Is my request not too much?" "Not too much, not at all."

Aoki agreed almost instantly, and the joy in his heart was beyond words.

Of course, he also wondered if Fire Phoenix was just trying to fool him.

  But think about it, everything is under his control, what is he afraid of?

Phoenix is ​​under his rule, and he has the power of life and death over Phoenix.

In addition, there are many imperial army intelligence personnel in Phoenix City, as well as the chess piece Yarusaqi, which is enough to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Therefore, Qingmu readily agreed to Huo Feng's request, and regardless of whether Yalusaqi objected or not, the affairs of Phoenix City would come to an end.

The reason given by Aoki was very simple: insufficient evidence.

Of course, Qingmu did not forget to ask Yalusaqi to keep an eye on the Fire Phoenix. If there is evidence, he will make the decision for Yalusaqi.

This was naturally a perfunctory response. If it weren't for Yarusaqi's little daughter, Qingmu would probably not have bothered to explain to Yarusaqi.

Near noon, Aoki had already ordered the Japanese and traitors to load some of the food onto the trucks.

He only took away five carts of food, and the remaining food remained in Phoenix City.

In this way, the Japanese would not have to spend a large amount of manpower to guard the granary, killing two birds with one stone.

And seeing that not a single grain of food was missing, Qingmu's suspicion of Huofeng was reduced a little. With his people, the convoy left Phoenix City in a mighty manner.

Qingmu was in a very good mood at this time. Although he felt that Huo Feng might not really want to marry him, at least Huo Feng had confessed.

When the time comes, he will return to the city, find a matchmaker and a fortune teller to choose an auspicious day, and then come to pick up Huo Feng and Yarusaqi's little daughter. Thinking of that wonderful feeling, Qingmu could hardly suppress his inner joy.

He looked out the car window at the gradually receding Phoenix, his heart filled with longing and expectation for the future.

As for the mysterious young man that Huo Feng mentioned, he didn't take it seriously at all.

He thought that the other party was just a bunch of bandits and was not worth worrying about.

As for whether the other party will ambush him in the wilderness, he has to ask the people around him whether they will agree.

On both sides of the convoy were fully armed Japanese soldiers.

They came by car, but had to walk back.

Because now the cars are loaded with food.

So even the Japanese could only follow on foot.

The trucks were moving very slowly, in stark contrast to how they were before we arrived.

But Aoki was not in a hurry, because there was enough time for them to reach Songyuan City before dark.

But he didn't know that it might not be so easy for him to return to Songyuan City.

Because at the moment he left the city, the guerrilla scouts who had been hiding outside Phoenix City immediately reported to Duanwu: The devils have left the city!
