Chapter 239: Laying the Net
Fiercely slashed the big guillotine in his hand on a big tree that was a little burned, and Sha Bangqu, who was sweating profusely, held his head in his hands and squatted down suddenly: "I still haven't caught up with ......."
Mo Tianliu, who was standing beside Sha Bangqu and holding a 20-shot pistol in his hand, looked at the almost burned village with his eyes blazing, and also stomped his foot angrily: "Fuck it...... When I got the news, I rushed here, and I ran a short distance of thirty miles through the mountains and mountains...... Don't say that you are stopping the devils from harming the villagers, that is, you can't get the devils to avenge the villagers! We...... I ate the food that the villagers saved from between their teeth in vain! ”
Squatting on the ground and carefully looking at the truck tire marks left on the road at the entrance of the village, Yang Chao, who was also holding a German-made 20-round pistol, did not speak for a long time. It wasn't until a few members of the martial arts team who had gone to the village to investigate the situation returned to the brigade that Fang stood up neatly and shouted in a low voice to the few members of the martial arts team who were inquiring about the situation: "How is it?" What's going on in the village? ”
Panting heavily, he hurriedly shouted at Yang Chao at the front of the martial arts team members: "Instructor, the villagers in the village should be fine......
Slightly relieved, Yang Chao responded: "The villagers have all withdrawn, it's good that nothing has happened to anyone, we can still build the house if it burns down, and we can slowly save ...... if the belongings are destroyed."
Shaking his head vigorously, the martial arts team members who entered the village to inquire about the situation responded urgently: "The villagers have not withdrawn, and they are all called devils locked up in the ancestral hall of the village!" ”
His eyes widened in surprise, and Mo Tianliu exclaimed in surprise: "The devil didn't hurt anyone? Just locked up the folks? ”
"A few villagers called the devil and the second devil to be injured with the butt of a gun, but the injury was not too serious! When we let the folks out, we didn't bother to ask questions......"
Glancing at Yang Chao, Mo Tianliu hesitated for a moment, and suddenly waved his hand to the wheezing martial arts team members behind him: "Double posts and double posts, machine guns are set up at high places, in case of sound, you bring twenty people to serve as guards, and the others follow me into the village!" ”
With Mo Tianliu's order, all the martial arts team members immediately moved quickly. In the blink of an eye, two sentry posts had been deployed, one bright and one dark, and two machine guns had been erected on the small high ground near the entrance of the village. Once fired, the crossfire was enough to stop the enemy forces who wanted to break through the main road to the entrance of the village.
led Sha Bangqu and the others to rush into the village quickly, and before Mo Tianliu could carefully take a closer look at the burned houses in the village, several villagers who hurriedly rushed from the direction of the ancestral hall in the village had already rushed into a house that was about to collapse due to burning. But after a few moments, the angry shouts had come from the house that was about to collapse: "Little devil of dog day...... This is going to kill our way of life! ”
"It's all burned....... How can this be done? The whole village's seed food......."
Seeing that the house that was about to collapse after being burned by the fire looked crumbling, Yang Chao hurriedly called a few members of the martial arts team, and dragged several villagers who rushed into the house to the street. Before the villagers could gain a foothold on the street, the room behind them collapsed......
With palpitations, he fanned the smoke and dust with his hand, and Yang Chao helped an old man with weak legs who was about to collapse to the ground: "Uncle, no matter what happens, don't worry about your body......"
Raising his eyes and looking at Yang Chao, who was holding him, the old man with weak legs hugged Yang Chao's arm: "Housheng, your martial arts team...... Why didn't you come sooner?! This house contains the seeds and food of the whole village! If the little devil is set on fire, everyone in this village will starve to death......"
Halfway through the words, the old man couldn't suppress the sorrow in his heart, and the old man cried out in tears: "Don't be afraid of lack of food and drink, wild vegetables can be used as food for half a year!" But there is no seed food....... starved to death my father and mother, and I didn't dare to touch the seed food! Without seeds, this is the end of hope from now on......."
Raising his eyes and looking at a few sad-faced villagers around him, Yang Chao whispered to comfort the mournful and weeping old man, and at the same time gave Mo Tianliu a look.
Just looking at Yang Chao's eyes, Mo Tianliu suddenly strode in front of the old man and patted his chest heavily: "Uncle, you are also in a hurry!" Isn't it just that the seed grain is burned by the devil? There are so many villages in these ten miles and eight townships, and if one village comes out a little bit, how can we get all the seeds and grain that our village needs to use! Don't worry, I'll arrange for someone in the martial arts team to do it with fast legs and feet! It's only three or two days of work, and I must get this done for you, and I can't delay the farming time! ”
Beckoning a few members of the martial arts team to appease and take care of those ashen villagers, Yang Chao and Mo Tianliu quietly looked for a secluded place, and then said in unison: "This is the fifth village!" ”
As soon as the words came out, Mo Tianliu and Yang Chao couldn't help but look at each other and chuckled. Reaching out and taking out half a box of cigarettes from his pocket, Mo Tianliu first put a cigarette on the corner of his mouth, and then handed the cigarette box to Yang Chao: "Why are you thinking about this?" ”
Gently pushing away the cigarette case handed by Mo Tianliu, Yang Chao frowned slightly: "The situation in these villages is similar - the devil basically didn't hurt anyone, but just imprisoned all the villagers in the village, and then burned down all the houses in the entire village, and destroyed the farm tools and seeds and grain. According to my judgment, the devil is planning to turn a small village into a big village! ”
Drawing a foreign fire and lighting a cigarette, Mo Tianliu took a few puffs of cigarette very unaccustomedly, coughed and said to Yang Chao: "Change a small village into a big village?" What does it mean? ”
"When I was studying in Yan'an, I listened to the old comrades. In the northeast, in order to make the fighters of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation have no place to get logistical supplies, they used the method of massacre to 'wash the village', forcing the local villagers to gather in a few large villages to live, and then used the fence to enclose those villagers who lived in groups. There are roads in and out of the wall, and ten households are jointly guaranteed to work in the field. It was found that someone was sending supplies to the comrades of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, and all ten families were killed! ”
Looking at Yang Chao dumbfounded, Mo Tianliu couldn't help but exclaim, "Lock people up and live?" Isn't it like having sheep in a sheepfold? Is the devil planning to use the method of burning houses, farm tools, seeds and grain to force these villagers to join relatives and friends, and slowly gather together? ”
Nodding slightly, Yang Chao continued to speak: "In the Northeast, such a big village is called 'human circle' by the local villagers!" Because there are so many people living in a bunch, there is no sanitary condition at all. Once someone gets some infectious disease, it will spread in a few days, and they can't control it at all, and they can only watch people get sick and die! Sometimes, in order to stop the spread of infectious diseases, devils will even ...... Set fire to the village and burn all the sick villagers to death! The devil calls this method - disinfection! ”
Surprised that he didn't even notice that the cigarette in the corner of his mouth fell, Mo Tianliu stared at his round eyes and shouted, "This is ...... What the fuck ....... Devils aren't fucking human! We must not let the devils spoil the ground in southern Hebei like this! ”
Nodding approvingly, Yang Chao frowned and said, "But let's just rely on two legs, even if we take a shortcut and rush with our lives, we can't be as fast as the devil's car!" Tianliu, have you noticed? These few times the devils came out to harm the villagers, all of them used trucks to attack quickly, and when the villagers didn't have time to bring their belongings and food to evacuate, they surrounded the village? ”
"I've seen the car at the entrance of the village! But let's ...... There are so many people, the guys lack everything, and they don't dare to say that they can fight hard with the devils when they save together, and they are scattered to protect so many villages, so it is estimated that it will not come in handy, and if you don't make trouble, you have to lose money! ”
Gritting his teeth fiercely, Yang Chao looked back at the martial arts team members who were helping the villagers collect some belongings in the ruins of the house, and shouted at Mo Tianliu in a muffled voice: "No! If it goes on like this, not only will the villagers not be able to withstand such a big loss, but our martial arts team will also be exhausted. In the end, the devil didn't fight, but we were dragged down first - we had to work harder and plant mines in every village! ”
"Landmines? That thing is a blind cat and other stupid mouse things, if you don't touch it, it won't make a sound, and if you bury it less, you won't do it at all, and if you bury it more...... First, we don't have a few devil mines left in our hands, and second, we are afraid of blowing up the villagers who work in the fields and go out of the village to do errands? ”
"There are no mines, we can do it ourselves! The power doesn't have to be too great, as long as you can blow up the devil, the combat effect will be better! As for the need to prevent accidental injury to the villagers....... Tianliu, I remember that our martial arts team arranged a lot of bows and crossbows outside the tea bowl village? ”
Just stunned for a moment, Mo Tianliu's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean...... Cleaning up mines by arranging bows and crossbows? ”
Nodding approvingly, Yang Chao said: "The Japanese army's mines are almost all pressure mines. The mines we make can be made in the style of tripping thunder using the firing principle of the upper nest bow and crossbow! On weekdays, when you can't see the devils, the mines are planted first, but you don't hang the stumbling cord, so you are not afraid of accidentally hurting the villagers. As long as you see the devil show up, immediately hang those tripping thunderbolts on the tripping hair! ”
"Let's settle a few more big mines on the road to blow up the devil's car! There are several layers of dense arrangement on the path with small mines, and you don't believe that devils will not bump into them when they pass by! ”
"We don't have this condition to make mine shells out of cast iron, and even if they are made, they can't keep up in terms of quantity! I thought I could try making a mine shell out of stone? When you are really in a hurry, teapots, crockpots, and even night pots can be filled with explosives and mines! It is imperative that we hurry up and make detonators, and we must also increase the amount of gunpowder produced in order to keep up with the consumption we need! ”
"The militia teams, women's rescue associations, and children's groups in the villages have to send out more people to post sentry, and the sentry positions have to be moved outward! The people who put strings on the mines have to be specially selected, so that they don't have to rush when they get ......."
Looking at Yang Chao and Mo Tianliu chatting from a distance, Sha Bangqu, who was helping the villagers pick up their belongings in the ruins, suddenly grinned happily and showed a simple smile: "The two fine beans get together, I'm afraid I have figured out some good way to fight devils.......
