The faint moonlight, the sparse stars, the courtyard is quiet.

Suddenly, several gray shadows rushed out of the room, looking hurried.

Throwing away the branches that were in the way, Yang Chenghu limped to the gate of the courtyard, slowly adjusted the bolt on the gate, and then gently pulled the gate inward.

The rusty creak sounded, heart-pounding in the darkness.

Leaning down and clasping the door frame with his left hand, Yang Chenghu gently leaned out half of his body and glanced out carefully.

In the alley that is transparent from east to west, accompanied by bursts of dog barking, several flashes are flickering and quietly approaching him.

Yang Chenghu knew very well that it was the barge gun reflecting the moonlight!

Slowly raising the box gun in his hand, tilting the gun body slightly, Yang Chenghu decisively pulled the trigger.

Bang Bang Bang ......

In the crisp and continuous sound of gunfire, accompanied by the muffled sound of bullet casings hitting the door frame, several black shadows in the distance let out a burst of exclamation.

The next moment, a dense rain of bullets immediately beckoned back.

In an instant, the last trace of tranquility in the silent mountain village completely disappeared, and the dark streets became fierce battlefields.

Suddenly retracting his body, Yang Chenghu gave a decisive order while inserting a new magazine into his box cannon.

"Two men and I will stop the enemy, and the others will climb over the wall in the backyard with the wounded, and then break through to the west of the village!

Yang Chenghu knew very well in his heart that although the enemy only appeared in the south for the time being, as long as the other party was not an idiot, he would definitely try to surround this courtyard. If you don't leave, you will have to be blocked in the yard.

Hearing the battalion commander's order, the big guy instantly understood everything, there was no dialogue, no hesitation, everyone consciously started to act.

As the two people walked towards the backyard with the lightly wounded person in their arms, Tianbao and another soldier rushed to the gate in a few steps, trying to help Yang Chenghu, who was half-squatting on the ground, up.

"Leave me alone! Hurry up and fight back! ”

When the two fighters heard this, they hurriedly leaned out of the gate and shot out.

Bang bang......

The voice of the middle official sounded, and the black shadow outside the door let out a miserable scream, and then a rain of bullets came, and a soldier was shot twice in the chest, and his body rolled out of the courtyard.

Tianbao retracted in panic and shouted while pulling the bolt:

"Battalion commander! The firepower outside is too fierce, and eighty percent of them can't withstand it! ”

Standing up against the adobe wall, Yang Chenghu glanced at the soldiers who died outside the courtyard, and his face was bruised.

"Damn ......, close the door and get a trip mine."

Hearing this, Tianbao hurriedly closed the gate, then took out a grenade and began to set up a trip mine.

His eyes swept over him, and Yang Chenghu's gaze finally fixed on a large basket in the courtyard.

limped over and poured out the contents of the big basket, and Yang Chenghu immediately buckled the big basket upside down against the wall.

Gritting his teeth and stepping on the bamboo basket, Yang Chenghu quietly poked out the box cannon from the wall and hit several figures outside the courtyard.

The detective team outside the gate heard the guns in the courtyard fizzling and thought that the people inside were trying to escape. I couldn't help but say it, and a group of people swarmed in, so I didn't even notice that someone was shooting on the wall more than one person high.

For a while, two or three men were shot and fell to the ground, screaming like killing pigs. When the rest of the detectives saw this, they immediately scattered in fright to dodge, and then aimed at the wall and rained bullets wildly.

Under the bite of the bullets, the broken soil was like a splash of rain with hail, the small ones were like marbles for children to play with, and the big ones were like eggs, and Yang Chenghu could never show his head at all.

Throwing the dirt off his military cap, Yang Chenghu tore a grenade from his waist, pulled the lead and delayed for a few seconds, then threw it over the wall and flew towards the place where the gunfire was most dense.

Boom!

In the darkness, the flames of the explosion reflected the entire alley, and then a burst of red-black clouds rose up, looking like a devil rushing out of hell from a distance.

……

When the smoke cleared, Zuo Fei, the detective captain, rubbed his head and stood up staggeringly.

"Captain, are you alright, Captain?"

Seven or eight men with dark faces gathered around Zuo Fei and asked in fear.

"Damn ......, Zheng Weishan, that bastard, where did he die? Didn't you say you were going to do it together from the backyard? ”

Looking at the eight or nine corpses around him, Zuo Fei's anger came up all of a sudden.

Originally, he made an appointment with a platoon of the garrison, and when the time came, he would attack the courtyard where the Eighth Road was hiding. But now that I've lost seven or eight people, I haven't even made a fart sound in this backyard!

"Team...... Captain. Just now the garrison sent someone to say...... Said that they were going to cooperate with the Japanese Imperial Army, and they should block the eight roads outside the village...... ”

Hearing his stammering reply, Zuo Fei was so angry that his face was crooked.

kicked the man who was talking to the ground, Zuo Fei took out a gun and pointed it at the other party and scolded:

"Motherfucker, what did you do earlier, why didn't you fart early!"

The man who was kicked down covered his stomach with a look of grievance.

"Captain, it's going to be too intense, it's not like I don't have a chance to speak......."

"Fuck! You're still reasonable, aren't you? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu will collapse you now! ”

The man next to him was trembling when he saw Zuo Fei's anger, and hurriedly pulled the two apart.

"Captain, angry, angry. There will be no guns in this yard for a while, so Balu can't be running, right? ”

"Nonsense!"

Glaring at his subordinates, Captain Left rubbed his sore neck.

"Why don't you hurry in and see if there are any wounded soldiers from the Eighth Road who haven't run, it's a great achievement to catch them alive!"

Hearing the captain's order, the twenty or so men outside instantly lowered their heads like frosted eggplants.

Everyone saw it just now, there are eight ways to defend this courtyard, this will go to open the door, what if you are shot cold?

Looking at the subordinates who were instigated by a vote, Zuo Fei really wanted to reward them with a peanut. But if he was allowed to open the door by himself, he would be 10,000 unwilling in his heart.

His eyes swept over everyone's eyes, and Zuo Fei finally pointed a gun at the subordinate who had just been kicked over by himself.

"You kid open the door for me!"

"Ah......, Captain...... This will open the door and be easy to get black guns, ah......, why don't we go over the wall and go in? ”

As soon as the man who was ordered heard that he let him go, he was immediately so frightened that his legs and stomach cramped, and he even stuttered a little when he spoke.

"Flip over you big-headed ghost! Lao Tzu is now giving you a chance to make meritorious contributions, if you rub it a little longer, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will collapse you now! ”

The man who was pointed at the gun also knew that he had no choice at this time, so he just stood up.

Trembling to the closed door, the man pushed the dilapidated door hard.

"Captain...... the door is stuck from the inside, and I can't push it open."

"Fucking shit! I can't even push them away, and I let go of the eight-way Lao Tzu and hacked you alive! ”

scolded a few words in a row, and seeing that the door still couldn't be opened, the angry Zuo Fei pushed a man who was watching the excitement next to him.

"You go and help him, knock the door open for Lao Tzu!"

The man who was pushed over looked confused, and was about to explain, but was pressed against the head by a cold muzzle.

In desperation, he could only trot to the gate.

The two unlucky men glanced at each other, took a deep breath, and slammed into the closed door in unison.

"Bang ......" squeak......

Under the impact of the two strong men, Xiao Er's arm-thick bolt was broken by a huge force, and the closed door was finally knocked open.

Under the effect of inertia, the two men rushed straight into the courtyard.

The moment the courtyard door opened, Zuo Fei and the others raised their guns and aimed in.

However, the expected gunshots did not appear, but the shouts of joy from the two men were heard.

"Captain, there's no one inside!"

"What? People ran away?! ”

Just as Zuo Fei's words fell, a loud bang once again enveloped everything.

……

With Tianbao's support, Yang Chenghu limped around the two courtyards, gritted his teeth and walked towards the west of the village.

To the south is the county seat, to the east is Zhoucun, and to the north and west are the mountains. From here, if you run north for less than two miles, you can burrow into the deep mountains with dense vegetation.

A few days ago, after completing the operation to cover the breakthrough of Lei Wancheng, Yang Chenghu, who led the remnants of the army to break out of the encirclement, had to go south in order to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army.

After a day and night of hard fighting with the pursuing enemy in the dense mountain forest, he finally succeeded in passing through the gap in the Japanese blockade line with a few remaining soldiers, and came to the rear where the Japanese army was relatively empty.

After arriving near Xiaowangzhuang, Yang Chenghu's leg injury became more and more serious because he had not been able to rest, and he almost lost his ability to move. In desperation, they had no choice but to venture into the village, hoping to recuperate in their hometown's house for a few days.

However, there is a saying that people are not as good as heaven, just after Yang Chenghu and they spent a few days safely, the fellow who went to the city to buy medicine was unexpectedly targeted by the detective team .......

……

Under the moonlight, when Yang Chenghu and the others walked to the edge of the village, they happened to meet two soldiers who were waiting for him.

"What about the wounded?"

Seeing that the wounded were not there, Yang Chenghu immediately asked anxiously.

"We're all waiting on the ridge outside the village, and we'll come back to meet you."

Nodding silently, Yang Chenghu panted under the support of Tianbao and walked outside the village with difficulty.

The sound of an explosion came from behind them, announcing that the small courtyard where they were originally hiding had been "breached", and at the same time telling the enemy Yang Chenghu that they had escaped.

The two fighters escaped from the village and walked up a path formed by a ridge, and Yang Chenghu stopped beside the two wounded waiting for him and checked the other party's injuries.

In the dark night, Yang Chenghu, who has mild blindness, has a greatly limited vision. After carefully observing the situation around him, he took out the compass given to him by the political commissar, leaned down on his knees to determine the direction, and thought about whether to go north or west.

In autumn, the wild grass outside the village grows everywhere, and the grass is more than half a person tall, and the grass has withered and yellowed slightly, giving the wind a rustling sound.

With a rustling sound, several unidentified creatures flew startled from the grass in front of him, and then fled into the dense darkness.

…… To be continued, thank you for your support!
