Chapter 47: Paying homage to the dead

"Why did he escape? This is our territory!"

After seeing the remarks in the newspaper, a reporter expressed his opinion in the newspaper: "The most important question now is not whether he escapes or not, but why do you catch him! Japan is our hostile country, why do you want to listen to the enemy and catch our heroes?"

In this era, there are many traitors, lacking traitors, but there are also patriots who are passionate about the country's prosperity and strength. Many people are disgusted with the fact that some people criticize Li Xiake. Even the revolutionary army in the south expressed strong support for Li Xiake, and two groups of people attacked each other with pens and guns.

But no matter how fierce their attacks were, Li Xiake, as the protagonist, had no idea at all. He had already set foot on the road to the northeast outside the pass, and now after a journey, he had arrived near Lushun City.

Since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Lu Shun was captured by the Japanese army. After the city was broken, the Japanese army carried out a massacre on the people of Lu Shun for four days and three nights, killing more than 20,000 of our people. The dead were terrible.

Not only that, these Japanese troops also bribed foreign newspapers to cover up the Lushun Massacre internationally. Once someone told the truth about the massacre, the people in the bribed newspapers would refute internationally, resulting in the massacre being known to the public many years later.

This was the first large-scale massacre incident conducted by the Japanese army on Chinese land. Only after the Lushun Massacre did a series of massacres follow until the Nanjing Massacre reached its peak.

Li Xiake killed Nogi Xidian, his wife and several subordinates in Taiwan to come to Lushun to pay tribute to the dead undead.

Unfortunately, when he broke into the Tokyo Palace, he didn't expect to take off the emperor's head. Otherwise, putting Emperor Meiji's head here would be the best tribute to memorial.

This Lushun is the base of the Beiyang Navy. After being captured by the Japanese army, it was destroyed for many years.

At this time, the Japanese army had just fought with Tsarist Russia in Lushun. After Russia was defeated, the city was completely controlled by the Japanese army. At the same time, Dalian also fell into the hands of the Japanese army and became the Kanto Province of the Japanese army!

There were a large number of Japanese troops here, and the city gate was extremely strict. Li Xiake covered his forehead with a red line, dressed up as a vendor selling salted fish during the day and scattered into the city. After wandering around and getting familiar with the location, he walked out of the hotel at night and took out the head buried in the salted fish. The samurai sword hidden in the bamboo tube was also carried back on his body, and then quietly walked towards Baiyu Mountain in Lushun City.

After the Japanese army defeated Russia, they built a "Taokao Tower" on the white jade to store the ashes of Japanese officers and soldiers who died in the war. They were built by the commander of the Japanese Joint Fleet Hirahachiro Togo and the commander of the Third Army Nogi Riki.

But on this Baiyu Mountain, not only are the ashes of Japanese soldiers, but thousands of innocent people who were massacred were buried at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, the Japanese army was in the city with martial law and strictness at night. When they found something was wrong, they shot and killed people.

Li Xiake stood against the sack, walked along the wall, dodged left and right, and walked for more than an hour before he reached the burial post on the eastern foot of Baiyu Mountain. Li Xiake took advantage of the moonlight and searched here for a while, and finally found a wooden stake in front of a grave with words such as "Where the Qing soldiers' battles and deaths" on it.

Li Xiake stood in front of the wooden stake and breathed a long sigh, put the sack in his hand in front of the wooden stake and slowly untied it.

Although the wooden stake describes the place where the Qing army soldiers died in battle, it is actually a work by the Japanese army to deceive the world and conceal the crimes of massacre and burning civilians and prisoners, including women and children.

In this tomb, not only were Qing soldiers, but more were the innocent people killed by Lushun.

After the sack was opened, Li Xiake took out the lime-pickled heads one by one. Among these heads were Nogi Hijiri, Nogi Hijiri's wife, and some Japanese officers and traitors. A total of seven heads were stacked together by Li Xiake like steamed buns and placed in front of the wooden stake.

The "Tail Tower" on the mountain was proposed by Nogi Hinomi and Togo Heihachiro. Now Li Xiake uses his head to commemorate these dead souls, which is most appropriate.

"Premium!"

Li Xiake took off the wine gourd on his waist, squatted in front of the wooden stake and sprinkled a scoop of wine, slowly got up, turned around and looked at the "Check Tower" not far away, and sneered: "Check Tower, Check Tower, Check Tower, Check Mother! Are all ashes here? I'll crush you to ashes today!"

After leaving the cemetery, he strided forward towards the candle-shaped white tower. During the walk, the wine gourd was thrown aside by him and the samurai sword was held in his hand.

Next to this "Praise Tower", the Japanese army also built a shrine to summon the Japanese army. At this time, there were Japanese patrols and guards under the shrine and Praise Tower.

Li Xiake looked at the shrine for a while, and while the dark clouds covered the moon, he flashed into the shrine, and then quietly cut off cloth, silk and other objects inside and put them together. He took out the fire stick and shook it in the wind. The fire head was already lit, and he wandered around quickly, igniting all the yellow curtains in the shrine. When the fire just lit up, Li Xiake rushed out of the house and jumped several times in succession. The person had disappeared in the night and quietly approached the Jochita Tower not far away in the darkness.

The shrine was on fire, and the Japanese soldiers guarding the shrine were shocked and suddenly became a mess. Even the guards under the white tower were alarmed and looked at the shrine with their necks hooked, and some were even ready to go and help put out the fire.

At this time, the mountain wind was blowing, and the wind helped the fire. In just a moment, these shrines had become fire cages, and several Japanese soldiers who were extinguishing the fire were burned to death.

While several Japanese soldiers guarding the White Tower were standing on tiptoe to look at the shrine, Li Xiake rolled a few times and was already behind them, raised his legs and fell down his feet, quietly rushing into the White Tower.

After entering the White Tower, he slowly moved up the stairs. The candles in the Tower were never extinguished all day long. Although it was late at night, it was as bright as daytime.

The white tower is more than 60 meters high. Li Xiake climbed up to the top floor in one breath, and then started setting fires on the top floor, igniting them layer by layer. When he reached the first floor, the mountain wind blew, and the entire white tower really became a huge candle with a blazing flame.

"Baga!"

At this time, the Japanese guarding the White Tower had already understood that someone had deliberately set fire at the scene. Just as they rushed towards the White Tower with their guns, Li Xiake laughed and had already rushed out of the White Tower. A cold light flashed, and a guard at the door had already been cut off by him.

"There are endless Japanese dogs!"

After Li Xiake slashed out with one sword, he kept pounced forward quickly. All the soldiers he encountered along the way were cut down with one sword. No matter whether he was killed or not, he would never give out a second sword.
