Chapter 2066 Conspiracy
The four gates of the county town were tightly closed, and each gate was strictly guarded by Japanese and puppet troops with loaded bullets, but the search and arrest of Japanese and puppet troops inside the county town continued.

It would be an exaggeration to say that they dug three feet underground, but with the hint given by that big guy, the Japanese army was looking for vegetable cellars everywhere while searching every inch of the county town.

At this time, somewhere in the county town, Da Biaozi had already slapped an old man who was so frightened that his face turned pale.

"You said your house doesn't have a cellar, then what is this?" Da Biaozi was pointing to a black hole in the ground.

"Boss, I really didn't mean to not tell you. It's just that someone died in this cellar, a whole family died. When my father was alive, he thought it was unlucky, so he sealed the cellar!"

"Bullshit!" the big guy cursed, "I would say the Eighth Route Army and Lao Liu are hiding in there!
Ma Er, go down and search!"

Da Biaozi started to call the roll.

Now Da Biaozi can finally give orders as he pleases.

Considering that all the puppet troops in Fulai Building had surrendered to the Eighth Route Army, and that Da Biaozi performed outstandingly during the search for the Eighth Route Army who were blocked in the city, he finally caught the attention of Qingzhong, was promoted, and became the captain of the puppet army.

But the puppet soldier he named now was the one who usually had a problem with him. In other words, this Ma Er was Lao Liu's man!

Now that Da Biaozi is an official, he must establish his own authority and make an example of others!

Ma Er saw Da Biaozi pointing at him. Under normal circumstances, he would not be afraid of Da Biaozi at all, but this time it was not possible. He looked at the Japanese soldiers with indifferent faces behind him and knew that he had to endure the humiliation.

But just when he was about to go down to the cellar, the old man who had been slapped several times by Da Biaozi shouted again: "Boss, you can't go down like this even if you want to. This cellar has been sealed for several years. It will suffocate people if you go down!"

"Bullshit!" Da Biaozi cursed again, "Then get out!"

Seeing Da Biaozi raising his hand again, the old man shrank back in fear and dared not speak.

"Just go down. You're not afraid of death, so why are you afraid of this?" Ma Er didn't take it seriously. He reached into his pocket, took out a candle and lit it. Then he really stretched out his other hand to hold the entrance to the cellar and tried to go down.

"Second brother, wait a minute." Suddenly another puppet soldier called out. When Ma Er looked up, he saw a puppet soldier who was on good terms with him stuffing one end of a leg binding into his belt.

"Don't be stupid. You might really be suffocated to death if you go down there," said the puppet soldier.

Nowadays, Chinese people have limited cultural knowledge and they don’t understand carbon dioxide poisoning, but they do have some folk experience.

"Hurry up and get off!" Da Biaozi said dissatisfiedly.

Ma Er and the puppet soldier both frowned, but they finally fastened the leggings and Ma Er climbed down.

At this time, other puppet soldiers opened their leggings and hurriedly connected the leggings tied around Ma Er's waist.

From the beginning to the end, the people under Da Biaozi were a minority in the puppet army, because Lao Liu's family power in the local area was too huge.

Several puppet soldiers surrounded the entrance of the cellar. They watched the top of Ma Er's head disappear into the darkness little by little, and naturally they clenched the bandages wrapped around their hands.

But just when they couldn't see Ma Er for a moment, they heard Ma Er shouting from below: "The candle is out."

This is another folk experience. If the wax goes out, it means you will be fumigated. In other words, there is no oxygen underneath.

As the sound of "the wax is out" came out, the puppet soldiers who were holding the leggings felt their leggings become heavier, especially the first puppet soldier who had the leggings wrapped around his arm, who was caught off guard and his arm was pulled down.

"Hurry up, the person is being knocked down by the smoke!" the puppet soldiers shouted and hurriedly pulled him up.

Fortunately, the leggings were strong enough, and Ma Er, who had gone down, was pulled up by them stumbling like a puppet.

"Lay it flat, lay it flat!" the puppet soldiers shouted, and hurriedly unbuttoned his clothes and touched his chest.

Just forget about artificial respiration. It’s not that a man can’t blow into another man’s mouth, it’s just that none of them understands.

Seeing many puppet soldiers squatting and kneeling with their heads gathered in a circle, after a while, a sigh of relief came from the crowd, and someone said, "He woke up and saved his life!" Da Biaozi, who had been watching, smacked his lips and said nothing in the end. He didn't want to arouse public outrage.

In an era when human life was as precious as grass, although a puppet soldier was almost suffocated to death this time, the search had to continue.

From the perspective of the Japanese captain and Da Biaozi, they really didn't believe it. It was certain that the person did not run out of the county, so they would definitely find him!

But that very night, some puppet soldiers led by Ma Er also discussed it.

"We can't go on like this. If we continue like this, Sixth Uncle and the others will definitely be found." Ma Er said.

"That's impossible. What's the point of finding it? We've already gone all the way and still haven't found it?" Some puppet soldiers were still hoping for a lucky juncture.

"You're not thinking right." A puppet soldier started to object before Ma Er could finish his words. "The county town is big, but it's only the size of a palm. If we search like this, it's only a matter of time before we find it."

After he said this, other puppet soldiers also began to agree.

"Second brother, what do you think we should do? If not, why don't we rebel?" a puppet soldier whispered.

His words did not scare the other puppet soldiers. In fact, they were originally in the same group as the puppet soldiers in the artillery tower of Fulai Town. If that group of puppet soldiers could rebel against them, there was no reason why they could not rebel against them.

After the Fulailou artillery tower incident happened, they had already discussed it privately, and now they were just bringing up old topics again.

"It's not that we can't rebel. It's just that many of you, Lao Liu and Li Dong, live in the county town. If we rebel, we can't implicate our families." Ma Er said.

When Ma Er said this, the puppet soldiers naturally nodded.

"Everyone come forward, so I have an idea, see if it works for you guys." Ma Er waved his hand, and the puppet soldiers naturally surrounded them more tightly.

"If Sixth Uncle and the others don't run away, they will definitely be found. So let's let them run away this time!" Ma Er said.

"We don't even know where Uncle Six and the others are, so how can we let them escape?" a puppet soldier interrupted and asked.

"Don't interrupt me, I haven't finished yet." Ma Er said angrily, "We don't know where Uncle Six is, so of course we can't let him go.

But if our people escape, wouldn't the Japanese think that Uncle Six and his men escape? Would they search for them again?"

"What a good idea!" a puppet soldier praised.

"Don't interrupt!" Lao Liu said again, "We can't all rebel. Those who live outside the county town should rebel, and those who live outside the county town should rebel, how about that?"

"Hey, this is a good idea!" After a moment of silence, a puppet soldier reacted.

The reason why he said this was a good idea was, of course, because the families of the puppet soldiers would not be implicated.

These people joined the puppet army just to get by and protect their families. It would be best if they could rebel without bringing trouble to their families.

But then the problem arises again.

"But Da Biaozi knows where my home is." A puppet soldier said. His home is outside the city, but the Japanese army doesn't know where his home is. Da Biaozi, who is also a puppet soldier, must know it.

He rebelled and with the scum like Da Biaozi around, there was no way the Japanese army would not find his home.

“When you leave, take him—” Ma Er made a gesture of wiping his neck.

After Ma Er finished speaking, the puppet soldiers were silent for a moment, but then they all laughed.

They are both soldiers and bandits, but don't say they have never killed anyone!

And the people killed this time are those who wanted to kill them. Either you die or I die, I have to choose one of the two, so what is there to hesitate about?
