Chapter 36: Fighting wits and courage
Zhang Zhiren, who had just stood up from the ground, was hit by this slap and immediately knelt on the ground again, trembling with fright, kowtowing vigorously, and he didn't dare to come out.
Ono threw the crossbow arrow in his hand in front of Zhang Zhiren and said lightly:
"Go out, keep an eye on this Liu Cheng's team, and report to me at any time if there is any movement."
Zhang Zhiren got up tremblingly, and agreed repeatedly:
"Yes, yes, yes, Taijun rest assured, you must keep an eye on it, you must keep an eye on it!"
After Zhang Zhiren left, Ono Taro picked up the crossbow arrow and held it in his hand, squinted his eyes and said to himself:
"Make a lot more noise, that way, you'll be more valuable......"
A few days later, the Japanese puppet army in the Panshi area received an order from the Nomura headquarters:
"Unite to wipe out the Rock Guerrillas."
Ono Taro looked at the piece of paper, and a strange smile gradually appeared on his face.
That afternoon, Liu Chengzheng was organizing a team for physical training, and Li Hongguang suddenly found him in a hurry and whispered to him:
"Something's wrong! I just received the news that more than a dozen devils left Huadian with forty or fifty puppet troops and went to Huashuzi Township! ”
Liu Cheng was stunned at that time.
In his previous life, it was his hometown!
After being reborn, he didn't want to go back and see, but in his previous life, his parents died unexpectedly early, and he thought that they were long gone, so he never thought of going back to see.
But just now when Li Hongguang mentioned the birch forest, Liu Cheng suddenly realized that after being reborn, he was no longer his own in his previous life, so were his parents in his previous life still alive?
Thinking of this, he grabbed Li Hongguang's shoulders violently, glared at him and said:
"I'll gather my team now, let's rush to the birch grove at once!"
Li Hongguang didn't expect Liu Cheng to have such a big reaction, so he hesitated for a moment and said:
"Shall we ask our superiors for instructions first?"
Liu Guoguo shook his head decisively:
"It's too late, our two brigades are now closest to the birch forest, the captain is in the Pandong area, and when we finish asking for instructions, I'm afraid the people of the birch forest will be finished!"
After saying that, he immediately ordered the troops to assemble and rushed to the birch forest with Li Hongguang.
When they arrived, it was already dark, and there was still more than a mile away from the birch forest township, and they saw the fire in front of them, and they could faintly hear bursts of crying.
Li Hongguang's face changed, and he was about to lead someone to rush over, but was stopped by Liu Cheng:
"Don't be impulsive, send someone over to investigate."
In fact, Liu Cheng's heart was far more anxious than Li Hongguang at this time, not only for his parents who might still be alive, but also for the people in the township.
The Japanese obviously came prepared this time, and it was impossible not to have imagined that they would come.
And with Liu Cheng's understanding of Ono Taro, he must have done this for a purpose, and he will definitely not do anything to these people for no reason.
It didn't take long for the people who had been sent out to return.
Just as Liu Cheng was worried, in addition to the people Li Hongguang said, there was also a team of devils lying in ambush outside, and as soon as they rushed in, they would immediately fall into the encirclement.
Li Hongguang thought about it and said to Liu Cheng:
"In this way, I will lead the first brigade to rush in, and you will lead people to counter-surround from behind!"
Liu Cheng didn't agree immediately, lowered his head and thought for a while and said:
"Send two people back to report the situation here to the captain and the political commissar, and then we will touch it together and fight these devils outside first!"
Li Hongguang nodded and agreed, turned to Li Erniu and said:
"You take one person back to report the news, and the others come with me!"
After saying that, he took the first team and touched the devils who were ambushed outside the birch forest.
Liu Cheng took over the only 38 big gaier in their team from Tian Liuwa, and led his team to touch it from the other direction.
But the further he went, the more strange he felt.
If the devil really had an ambush, it would be impossible not to send out eyeliner, and he should have found himself a long time ago.
But now he can vaguely see a figure swaying in the woods in front of him with his naked eyes, and the other party has not yet noticed it, which is not logical at all.
Before Liu Cheng could figure out the reason, Li Hongguang started fighting.
There was no way, Liu Cheng could only grit his teeth and give the order to attack.
As soon as the two sides exchanged fire, the team was immediately routed and withdrew all the way to the birch forest.
After meeting Li Hongguang, Liu Cheng immediately told him his worries.
These people obviously did it on purpose, otherwise even if it was a puppet army wearing devil costumes, it would not have been possible to defeat so quickly.
Unless, someone ordered them to do so.
But at this time, one more second of stay here is more dangerous.
If the enemy really intends to do so, then there must be an army approaching behind him.
If they didn't react immediately, their two brigades would probably face a situation of complete surroundment.
Liu Cheng immediately said to Li Hongguang:
"We can't wait any longer, we immediately rush into the village from both sides, bring all the people we can with us, and enter the opposite mountain in the shortest possible time!"
Li Hongguang nodded without any hesitation, turned around and led people away.
Most of the houses in Birch Forest Township had been set on fire at this time, and the devils gathered all the people in an open field, watched by twenty or thirty puppet soldiers with guns.
It's not that they don't want to set up machine guns, but the machine guns are all moved to the sides to defend against the guerrillas.
At this time, the whole township has become a sea of fire, and several passable intersections are all guarded by the machine guns of the devils, and if you rush hard, you will have to pay a heavy price.
Liu Cheng hid in a corner, gritted his teeth and picked up the Type 38 rifle.
It was the first time he had picked up such a rifle since he had been reborn.
In his previous life, Liu Cheng was also a sharpshooter, and within a distance of 400 meters, he was almost without missing a shot.
Although it was already night, the firelight made the whole birch forest as bright as day.
Liu Cheng slowly moved the muzzle of the gun, adjusted his breathing, and gently put his fingers on the trigger.
At a distance of more than 200 meters, the fire will not produce a virtual light on the ruler, such shooting conditions are already very good, but the muzzle has no support, and the muzzle can only be controlled by the strength of the arm and body.
"Horn!"
There was a crisp sound, and the machine gun directly in front of it suddenly fell silent.
As soon as the devil next to him saw that his companion was dead, he immediately came over and pushed the corpse away, just put the butt of the machine gun on his shoulder, and before he could shoot, his body fell backwards violently and fell on the corpse he had just pushed away.
Liu Cheng, who fired two shots in a row, found some of the feeling of the year, and continued to adjust the muzzle aiming.
There were a total of six devils in that bunker, and before they could find Liu Cheng's location, they were shot in the head one after another.
