Chapter 271: Phantom of the Jungle
?“ How's it going? Zhao Zhi looked at the corpses of the Japanese soldiers piled up by the mountain stream with a slight brow, and asked Yan Shijun, who was putting on the Japanese military uniform. "Green" In order to guard against the sudden appearance of Japanese troops in the mountains and forests, the battalion directly under Zhao Zhi has been divided into two echelons before and after, Zhao Zhi is responsible for the 600 people in the rear team, and Yan Shijun, who understands Japanese, was entrusted by Zhao Zhi with the important task of taking charge of the front team, including all the scouts and half of the snipers. Yan Shijun's front team was responsible for the forward reconnaissance and cleared the troops of hidden Japanese outposts, while Zhao Zhi's rear team had to support the front team at any time when they encountered the Japanese army.
Yan Shijun They arrived here early this morning, and followed Suzuki and his party who came to change the guard to walk in the mountains and forests. Sure enough, these Japanese soldiers came to change the guard, and the Japanese soldiers actually tied the sentry directly to the tree, which made the doglegs feel the cunning of the Japanese army. As a result, Suzuki, who didn't know it, escaped, and the unlucky Kuroki became the ghost of Yan Shijun's arrows.
This was the first wave of Japanese soldiers killed by Yan Shijun when they entered the Myitkyina area, so it was imperative to interrogate the prisoners immediately, and there were three prisoners, Ono, Inoue, and Makino, the three guys who fetched water, were tied up by goats and people early in the morning, and the two who went later were shot over by crossbow arrows. When Zhao Zhi rushed to the mountain stream, the goats who heard the bamboo whistle happened to rush over with the captives, and the three captives were tied like pigs, and the thatch was stuffed in their mouths.
"Say your unit number, your name, position" Yan Shijun casually grabbed Ono, this Japanese soldier has fierce eyes, it seems to be a hard character, when Yan Shijun interrogates prisoners, he likes to clean up such a guy, he doesn't believe that anyone can resist his own means. The thatched regiment was stuffed into Ono's mouth again, Yan Shijun smiled and pulled out the bayonet on his waist and stabbed it violently, "poof" "poof" "poof" Ono's left leg was pierced by Yan Shijun three holes in a row.
Ono, whose mouth was gagged with thatch, couldn't scream at all, and the pain was so severe that he could only struggle desperately, and large streams of blood rushed out of the wound on his leg. Yan Shijun didn't wipe the blood on his face, but just looked at the other two captives with a look similar to that of a beast, it seemed that the youngest Inoue had already peed his pants in fright, and Makino, who was trying to restrain his fear, was also trembling, not daring to look at Xiao Ye, who was constantly struggling on the ground.
Ignoring Xiao Ye, who was still rolling on the ground, Yan Shijun, who was full of murderous face, grabbed Makino by the collar and dragged him away, and dragged him for more than ten meters before starting his inquiry. Yan Shijun, whose face was full of blood, was already able to equate himself with the demon in Muye's heart, and without waiting for Yan Shijun's questioning, he told everything he could know. wiped a handful of blood on his face, Yan Shijun left Makino and returned to the well, and asked what Makino had just said again, the two guys had already been frightened by Yan Shijun, and there was still something to hide, so naturally he said ** not far from ten.
"Sir, I asked clearly, the other party is a vigilant squadron, and there are about 300 Burmese soldiers, and the total number is about 500. They set up 12 outposts around the area, all of which, as we found, were to fasten soldiers to trees with ropes and change shifts every 12 hours. This sentinel of theirs has just been changed today. It would take about an hour to walk from their guard post back to the camp, which means that even if the Japanese find us, there will be 2 hours of buffer time left for us."
"And what are you going to do?" Zhao Zhi pointed to the Japanese military uniform on Yan Shijun's body, and the answer was already obvious, but Zhao Zhi wanted to know Yan Shijun's detailed plan. This kid grows up quickly, is good at seizing fighters and can quickly plan battles, and in time he will soon be able to take charge on his own. Zhao Zhi asked him this now, just to build momentum for Yan Shijun in front of the doglegs, and win the recognition and support of the officers for him.
"I'm going to take a team of people to pretend to be Japanese soldiers and knock out this sentry in front, so that we can pass here quickly, two hours is enough time for us, and when the Japanese army finds out and chases again, we will already run away, as long as we avoid the road, they can't do anything about us" Yan Shijun kept talking, putting Kuroki's military uniform and some bits and pieces on his body. He was about the same size as Kuroki, and as long as the steel helmet was lowered, it still looked a little similar from a distance.
"To go or not to go" Zhao Zhi muttered a little in his heart, although the plan was made by Yan Shijun himself, but everyone knew the danger of doing so, in case the Japanese troops on the sentry found out that Yan Shijun was an impostor, they could use machine guns to annihilate Yan Shijun when they were rushing in. "No, you can't take this risk" Zhao Zhi hesitated, but still denied Yan Shijun's plan, "Uncle, send your people to fight one, two to fight one, are you sure" Zhao Zhi tends to use a long-range sniper rifle, even if there is a firefight with the Japanese army, it is better than sacrificing the lives of his brothers in vain.
"But, sir, this will be discovered by the Japanese army" Yan Shijun swallowed a mouthful of spit with difficulty, Zhao Zhi thought about him, he was a fool and could see it, but the consequences of doing so were very clear to everyone. "Bullshit, do you think these Japanese sentries are all dead in vain, if they don't go back in an hour, they will have to send someone to find them in the camp" Zhao Zhi kicked Yan Shijun angrily, "Hurry up and get out, take my uncle's people to find the location of the sentry, Lao Tzu is still in a hurry"
Everything that happened on this side of the mountain stream, Suzuki in the jungle on the other side of the mountain didn't know, they just came to take over the post and they were hurrying to nest in the trees and smoke, Suzuki's infantry squad was not as good as Kuroki's squad, at least Kuroki's subordinates didn't dare to smoke on the sentry post, but Suzuki himself was taking the lead in smoking. Suzuki was a farmer before joining the army, and his purpose in joining the army was very simple, that is, to save money to marry a wife. After experiencing burning, killing and looting in China, Suzuki, who was originally a little simple, has undergone a fundamental change, and now he is simply a guy who only knows how to eat, drink and enjoy.
"Suzuki-kun, did you hear anything just now?" Oshima, who was on the tree next to Suzuki, whispered in a hesitant whisper to Suzuki, as soon as their squad leader arrived at the sentry, he was sleeping, and when there was something, Oshima, who was closest to him, needed to call him. Suzuki's biggest annoyance was that someone interrupted him from sleeping, and only Oshima, who was in the same year as him, dared to do so, because they had been transferred to Burma from the same unit. Suzuki looked left and right in a trance, he was too sleepy to use the telescope to search, "No, I didn't find anything here, Oshima-kun, I beg you, let me sleep for a while" Suzuki leaned sideways on the trunk and fell asleep.
Helpless, Oshima had to keep his eyes wide and vigilantly observe this mountain forest, due to Suzuki's dereliction of duty, his infantry squad did not take turns sleeping like the Kuroki squad, a full 14 people, only Oshima was still staring at his eyes and being loyal to his duties, and the rest of them had already fallen asleep. This can't all be blamed on them, last night in anticipation of this meal of wild boar in the morning, many soldiers in the camp did not sleep well, in order for the soldiers in his class to eat pork, Suzuki even called everyone up early to squat outside the room to line up.
Pinched his thighs hard, Oshima, who was also a little drowsy, woke up with a shock, and reached out to grab the kettle, the wild boar in the morning was very greasy, and Oshima was a little thirsty. Suddenly, Oshima, who had just put the kettle in his mouth, froze, and a black light flashed in the bushes facing him, although it was fleeting, but he was still caught by the vigilant Oshima. Was it his own dazzled or was there really a situation, Oshima clenched the rifle in his hand, and his eyes widened and carefully observed the bush just now. Shrubs, dead branches, thatch, wild vines, there doesn't seem to be anything special, could it be that he really looked at it himself, Oshima carefully observed it back and forth a few times, and then he was relieved.
Oshima laughed self-deprecatingly, but his smile immediately froze on his face, and the bush that he had ruled out of the anomaly suddenly trembled, as if a beast was about to burst out. There was a sound of "collapse", and a black light flew out from the shaking bushes, which was very similar to the little black light that Oshima had just seen. The speed of the black light was so fast that Oshima, who didn't have time to dodge, only felt a stinging pain in his neck, and a crossbow arrow had pierced his neck, pinning him tightly to the branch.
Dizziness, tightness in the chest, breathlessness, weakness of the whole body, blackness in front of his eyes, this is how Oshima felt at the end of the world, and in just a few seconds, Oshima's eyes widened and froze on the branch. His fingers were still in the trigger guard of the rifle, but he no longer had the strength to pull the trigger, and the crossbow arrow shot very accurately, directly piercing the major artery in his neck, and the panic caused by the massive blood loss and dizziness in an instant immediately triggered Oshima's shock, so he had no chance to pull the trigger at all.
The bushes where the bolts were fired were calm again, as if nothing had ever happened there, and the breeze in the mountains and forests blew and took away the faint smell of blood, and everything in the jungle was as calm and dark as ever. The number of Suzuki's team is Yan Shijun's and they have carefully counted it a long time ago, naturally they can't let any of them go, these 14 people are destined to become dead people like Kuroki and them, because only dead people will not expose Zhao Zhi's whereabouts, at least not in a short period of time.
The bushes swayed, the thatched scouts began to sneak with crossbows in hand, and the 30 scouts under the machete men all touched into the jungle, and they had 20 crossbows in their hands, enough to deal with the Japanese soldiers tied to the trees. The Japanese soldiers in Suzuki's squad were very separated, which required the scouts to search carefully until all 14 people were found before the rear team could pass, and as long as one of them slipped through the net, their whereabouts would be exposed. Uncle Guo's 40 snipers were nested at the edge of the jungle, the trees were too thick, and the snipers were on the ground, so they couldn't find traces of the Japanese army in the sniper scopes, so they had to rely on the scouts to find them themselves.
One by one, the crossbow arrows were fired, and in order to prevent the sleeping Japanese soldiers from making a noise or screaming, the scouts chose to shoot them directly at the head and heart. After several rounds of searching, the scouts cleared a total of 12 Japanese soldiers, but there were still two people who were not found, this place has been searched by the scouts several times, but there is no trace of the two Japanese soldiers left, and the scheduled time has already passed halfway, and Yan Shijun, who led the team, is going crazy.
"Shhh The goat hiding behind a tree is lying on the ground, putting its ears on the ground, "This dog day is not in the tree, it is hidden in the ground" The goat gestured and slowly touched the front, a nest of inconspicuous bushes was slowly moved away by the scouts, and below was a soil pit about 2 meters wide and 1 and a half meters deep, and the two Japanese soldiers who had not been found were sleeping in it.
"Damn, these two dogs will pick a place, and they will find a good grave for themselves when they are ready" The scouts with crossbows in their hands formed a circle facing the dirt pit, only to hear the bowstring "collapse" and "collapse" after the chaotic sound, the two Japanese soldiers in the dirt pit were directly shot into a blood sieve by the crossbow arrows. Yan Shijun, who was still not very relieved, counted the Japanese soldiers who were shot again, and after repeatedly confirming that there were no fish that slipped through the net, he sent a signal and beckoned the rear team to pass here quickly.
According to the old rules of the direct company, the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were stripped of themselves, machine guns, bullets, grenades and grenadiers were taken away, and burdens such as the 38 rifles were directly smashed in two by the scouts on the trunks. Compared with weapons and ammunition, the cigarettes, watches, and diaries on the Japanese soldiers are more popular with everyone, and if you can find a photo of a woman in the personal pocket of the Japanese soldier's corpse, it will cause the soldiers to rob it, and everyone wants to see what the Japanese woman looks like.
It is said that the battalion now has nearly 800 people, and the firepower is strong, such strength should not be afraid of the Japanese army to pursue, but Zhao Zhi's main task is to cross the Gaoligong Mountain and use it as a surprise force to support the Western Yunnan Expeditionary Force's forced crossing of the Nu River, rather than fighting the Japanese army in the jungle. So Zhao Zhi had no choice but to lose this opportunity to ambush the Japanese army, and took his direct battalion to march in the direction of Gaoligong Mountain, where there were still Japanese troops waiting for him to clean up, maybe it would be more interesting and intense than in the jungle. ~ To see the first ad-free, please go to "Green"
