Liu Cheng followed the grain cart into the gendarmerie and asked Ono to sign.

In order to cover up the nature of the plunder, Ono Taro came up with a way, that is, no matter what was taken from the merchant people, he would give the corresponding person a written commendation and a verbal reward, that is, no money.

After each delivery of food, Ono would sign the list and indicate that it was a military ration.

Liu Cheng stood in the courtyard of the gendarmerie, waiting for Ono's men to take out the signature.

Suddenly, he faintly heard a woman's terrible scream, which seemed to come from the small two-story building.

He was moved, but he deliberately pretended not to hear anything, took the signature, and left the gendarmerie.

Liu Cheng told Li Min the news.

The identity that Li Min used to disguise was a cloth merchant, and he had some contact with the shopkeeper of Tian.

He also knew about the eldest daughter of the Tian family, so after getting the news, he immediately thought of Miki's disappearance.

After discussing with Zhang Zhenguo, they decided to find a way to rescue the Tian family as much as possible.

Now the number of the "dog fighting team" has increased to sixteen people, and there are five shotguns, although it is far from enough to fight the Japanese, but the strength is not enough, and you can make up your wisdom.

If we want to develop and grow, we must have a solid mass foundation.

If you want to get the recognition and support of the people, it is not enough to just punish a few traitors and lackeys, so rescuing the Tian family is also an opportunity for them to win the hearts of the people.

A few days later, in the evening, Liu Chenggang had just closed the door of the grain store when he suddenly heard two dull gunshots coming from a hill outside the city.

Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, he heard it very clearly, it was not a shotgun, but an authentic Hanyang made!

It is clear that someone did it on purpose, but who would shoot here at such a time?

There are dozens of devils in Panshi County, and if there are many people on the other side, they can attack directly, and if they choose to shoot on the mountain to attract attention, it means that they must not have an advantage in numbers.

What is the purpose of the other party's this?

Just thinking about it, there was a sudden commotion outside, Liu Cheng peeked through the crack in the door, and found that it was Ono Taro who personally led a team of devil soldiers straight out of the city.

Liu Cheng counted it, including Ono Taro, a total of forty people.

He speculated that there were two possibilities for the identity of the person who had just shot him:

One possibility is the Rock Guerrillas he is trying to find, but according to his understanding, the Rock Guerrillas at this time have not yet been formally established, and it is unlikely that they will get Hanyang, so the remaining possibility is the remnants of the Northeast Army left behind when they withdrew.

Although Zhang Xueliang obeyed Lao Jiang's order not to resist, his men were not completely without resistance.

Huang Xiansheng is an example.

After 918, Huang Xiansheng was the first Northeast general to stand up and resist, after the loss of Fengtian, he led the police force to retreat to Jinzhou, and established the Liaoning Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, until January 3, 1932, after the Japanese army captured Jinzhou, he took a part of the people back to Guannai.

But there are still some people who did not withdraw, but stayed.

Could it be these people?

However, no matter who the other party is, this is a good opportunity to rescue the Tian family!

On the other side, the people of Li also heard the gunshots on the mountain.

At that time, he was in Panshi County, and there were nine people with him, including Zhang Zhenguo and Wang Gensheng.

Seeing Taro Ono leading people out of the city, Li Min and others also realized that this was an opportunity.

Liu Cheng went to the backyard and dug out his crossbow, took all the crossbow arrows, and quietly touched the vicinity of the gendarmerie.

He didn't want to go to Li Min, on the one hand, because he couldn't completely determine their identities yet, and on the other hand, Wuyang Village was five or six miles away from the county seat, and it was too late in time.

The Japanese army stationed in Panshi was a squad, although Liu Cheng did not have the opportunity to carefully count the number of people in this squad, but according to his understanding of the Japanese army, a squad should be 54 people, and according to this number, then the remaining people in the city should be 14 people.

At that time, it was already dark, and there should have been six devils patrolling the streets in two groups with a few doglegs, and the remaining eight should be the number of people left behind in the gendarmerie.

Liu Cheng brought all the twenty steel crossbow arrows with him, and he was determined to win this rescue!

The closer he got to the gendarmerie, the more excited his heart became.

Eighty-seven years have passed since the last time he killed an enemy on the battlefield.

The killing of Miki was completely a sneak attack, and Liu Cheng did not feel the joy of the battle.

Although this time it is also necessary to focus on sneak attacks, after killing the first person, it will inevitably be discovered by the enemy.

Therefore, this can be regarded as a battle, a battle that belongs to him alone, and Liu Cheng will inevitably feel excited in his heart!

When he was still more than ten meters away from the gate of the gendarmerie, Liu Cheng stopped and hid on the corner of the street to observe quietly.

His first target was the two devils standing guard at the gate of the gendarmerie compound.

Press the bolt into the slot, aim, fire.

"Whoosh!"

The bolt went straight into the devil's temple with a slight sound of breaking through the air.

"Puff"

The corpse fell to the ground, unable to utter even a cry of pain.

Liu Cheng quickly shook the mechanism of the bow, reset the crossbow string, and pulled out a crossbow arrow and pressed it into the arrow slot.

At this time, someone had already found the devil who had fallen to the ground and quickly ran over to check.

"Whoosh!"

The second man fell to the ground.

However, because this devil soldier had already alarmed the others before he ran over, after he fell to the ground, all the devils who followed him hid directly behind the bunker, and Liu Cheng had no chance at all.

Although there was no sound from the bow and crossbow, those devils were all well-trained soldiers after all, and they judged the general location of the attacker based on the direction in which the corpse fell to the ground.

At the same time, in the other direction, several people were secretly watching the scene that was taking place.

The leader is none other than Li Min.

He whispered to Zhang Zhenguo next to him:

"Zhenguo, who do you think the other party will be?"

Zhang Zhenguo shook his head:

"It's hard to say, but he should have used a powerful cold weapon, like a bow and crossbow."

Li Min was stunned:

"Can a crossbow hit so accurately?"

Zhang Zhenguo's expression was serious, his eyes were firmly fixed on those Japanese soldiers, and he said in a calm tone:

"Don't underestimate the cold weapon, he is in the hands of some people, and his power is definitely not less than a gun!"

After speaking, he turned his head and said to Wang Gensheng:

"Give me the explosives."

Li Min was surprised:

"You're going to use explosives?"

Zhang Zhenguo nodded.

Li Min showed a trace of shame on his face:

"Zhenguo, you also know our current conditions, this explosive is actually the gunpowder in the artillery battle, except for the loud sound when it explodes, it has no lethality, even if you throw it over, at most it will blow up the devil and hurt the skin."
