It's late at night, the night is getting darker and darker like ink, and even if there are occasional starlight spills, the visibility is very low.

But it was in such a night that the gunfire in Shigu County was loud, and from time to time there were flashes of fire snakes and explosions, and the few residents in the county town all closed their doors tightly, and the whole family huddled in the corner and waited for the dawn.

At this moment, a group of hurried men and horses from outside the city stopped a mile away from the city wall, and this group of people and horses who came was Mo Youdao and his party who came overnight, and these people looked at the gunshots and fires that rang out from time to time in front of them, and their faces showed puzzled looks.

"Lai Mazi, go over and see what's going on inside?" Mo Youdao's hoarse voice sounded in the night.

"Third Brother Mo, I'...... I don't dare to go! ”

"Smack......

"You stupid, Lao Tzu asked you to find out the situation, and I didn't let you go to death, you are afraid!" After Mo Youdao finished speaking, he hit him again.

"Third Brother Mo, stop fighting, I'll ...... Can't I go? ”

Two consecutive slaps made Lai Mazi's face red, and he had to agree aggrievedly for fear of being beaten again.

Looking at Lai Mazi who disappeared into the night, Mo Youdao scolded "stupid" in a low voice, and casually took out a piece of dough cake and a bamboo tube from the backpack behind him, and ate it with a mouthful of dough.

When Mo Youdao was about to finish eating a piece of bread, Lai Mazi hurriedly ran back and said breathlessly: "Mo ...... Third Brother Mo, no...... Oh no, the big boss has already led people to fight with the Japanese in Shigu County! ”

When Mo Youdao heard this, his face instantly turned pale, and Nan Nan said in his mouth: "It's over...... This loser's girl really dares to attack the city, she really dares to attack the county seat. ”

As soon as the words fell, he grabbed Lai Mazi by the collar and asked, "How many of our people are left now?" ”

Lai Mazi couldn't tell for a while whether Mo Youdao was worried about the brothers of Erlong Mountain or afraid that he would reverberate with the commander of the light pole in the future, he replied in a daze: "I don't know about this, because now the big boss has already led people into the city, and I ran back to report to you before I went in to see it." ”

As soon as Lai Mazi's words fell, there was a gasp around him. Mo Youdao, who originally grabbed Lai Mazi's collar, stood on the spot like this.

"What? The gates have been breached! ”

"How is this possible......"

"Lai Mazi, don't lie to us, otherwise you will be good-looking!"

Not only Mo Youdao, but the more than 20 people next to him all looked at each other, and many of them even scolded him, what kind of joke, just with hundreds of old and weak women and children in Erlong Mountain and a few broken guns, can they capture the city wall defended by the Japanese? What was the Nationalist army that was defeated by the Japanese a few days ago...... Papier-mâché scarecrow?

"I really don't lie to you, if anyone doesn't believe themselves, go to the city gate to see, now the city gate is wide open, you can see it at a glance!" Seeing that everyone didn't believe him, Lai Mazi was so anxious that his face turned purple and jumped vigorously.

Seeing that Lai Mazi did not look like a fake, everyone was also a little suspicious, although this thing sounded too ridiculous, but looking at Lai Mazi's expression did not look like a lie, what the hell is going on, and finally everyone looked at Mo Youdao.

Mo Youdao's expression was also a little surprised, he thought about it and gritted his teeth and said: "What else is there to think about now, just go and see, let's go!" ”

As soon as he waved his hand, dozens of people ran towards the county seat......

The gunfire in the city continued, and Lieutenant Murakami led more than 20 Japanese troops to continue to attack the granary. Although several people were killed and injured on the Erlongshan side at the beginning, they gradually began to get used to it.

As the saying goes, the battlefield is the best teacher, and the process from panicking at the beginning to reluctantly fighting back to fighting the Japanese army with the advantage of numbers, this process actually took less than half an hour. When Lieutenant Murakami found that he could no longer advance quickly with his ferocious tactics, he knew that the operation was likely to fail. The opponent's number is more than ten times that of his own, and the opponent also has dozens of imperial standard rifles and a light machine gun, and his own side is one less if he dies, but the other party can always allocate manpower to replenish, how can his own side have a chance of winning.

Turning his head to look at the remaining dozen or so soldiers around him, Murakami's face was dark, if he continued to fight like this, I am afraid they will all be shattered.

A soldier standing behind him hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Excellency, are we going to continue the attack?" ”

Murakami hesitated for a moment and sighed lightly, the current situation is already obvious, if they continue to fight, not only will they not be able to complete the task, but the remaining ten or so people will probably all be explained here.

"Forget it, we have too few people, and it is impossible to capture the barracks like this!" Murakami finally made a decision in his heart, "Let's withdraw to the headquarters first, otherwise once we all have His Excellency Jade Shatter Shaozuo, there will be no one around him." ”

Murakami's words fell, and he seemed to see a look of heavy burden flashing in Jun Cao's eyes, it seems that these soldiers don't want to die in battle.

"Quick, now everyone go back to the barracks first, quick!"

The two sides fought so fiercely, as soon as the Japanese army retreated, Su Jin naturally noticed it for the first time, where would he easily let this group of devils go when the fight was rising, he chased after him with more than 50 people in addition to leaving more than 20 people to guard the granary.

Harumoto Kuma, who was waiting for news in the headquarters of the barracks, never dreamed that the men and horses he sent out not only failed to disperse those local forces, but were chased and beaten in the ass.

After Harimoto Kuma, who was already seriously underwhelmed, sent out Murakami, there were even fewer people who could fight, so he had no choice but to withdraw all the soldiers in charge of guarding outside the barracks to the courtyard of the headquarters for guard, so that when Su Jin chased people in, he didn't encounter any resistance.

"Bang ......"

The door to the headquarters was suddenly opened, and the figure of Lieutenant Murakami suddenly appeared in front of him.

Before Harumoto Kuma could speak, Lieutenant Murakami bowed his head and said: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, I'm really sorry, I couldn't fulfill your request, there are too many people outside, and more than half of my men and horses have been lost, so I have no choice but to retreat, I ...... Smack......"

Before Lieutenant Murakami could finish his sentence, he fell to the ground in a panic as a gunshot rang out, and a wisp of green smoke was emitting from the muzzle of the southern pistol in the hands of the hideous-looking Harumoto Kuma.

"You idiot, since you can't complete the mission, then die......"

PS: Some readers left a message saying that they had different opinions on the previous chapter of Ah Ding, saying that the Japanese crooked handle is really bad, and the hopper magazine cannot change the magazine during shooting. Ah Ding wants to say here that the crooked light machine gun does have a lot of problems, such as not being able to change the barrel, slow rate of fire, easy to jam and so on, but it also has advantages, such as its magazine pressure plate can be taken away, and it can be loaded while shooting when shooting, but its biggest disadvantage is that the requirements for machine gunners are very high, with the continuation of the war, a large number of experienced machine gunners in the Japanese army have died, and it is difficult for new machine gunners to give full play to the advantages of this machine gun, This was the advent of its successor, the Type 96 light machine gun.
