Chapter 37: Captain of the Secret Service
I was waiting for an opportunity, and it was clear that the puppet agent hiding in the grass was also waiting for an opportunity. It's just that the opportunities we are waiting for are different.
What I was waiting for was his chance to let his guard down. As for whether it was captured alive or killed, it didn't really matter to me. I knew it would be hard for us to get anything out of the mouths of these puppet agents, and that there was little chance of them being caught alive with poison in their mouths. More importantly, I sensed that he was in danger. When a person's life is threatened, it doesn't matter if they are a confession. I'm no exception, I feel like I'm in his crosshairs, and as soon as he pulls the trigger, I'm going to say goodbye to this world.
It is said that the 'fire' rate of the M1 rifle bullet exceeds the speed of the sound, which means that by the time I hear the gunshot, there is a good chance that the bullet is already in my head. Or when I was dying, I couldn't hear the shot that killed me. The thought made my scalp tingle and I clenched my teeth involuntarily. But I still try to show a little relaxation, because I can't let my opponent know that I have found him, otherwise he will have to fight to the death.
The opportunity for the puppet army agents to wait is for us to escape beyond his hiding place. That's what he's lurking here for, and I'll admit it's a good idea, the best way to escape is not to run in all directions like the other agents, which will only be a target for us, but to lurk in the grass and wait for us to walk through. As soon as all of us were focused on the fleeing agent, he was able to escape from behind us......
It's just a pity that he chose the wrong location, and he shouldn't have chosen the grass that was too close to me to lurk. If he had stayed away from me, he might have escaped this way.
I tried not to notice where he was, trying to forget about him.
It was difficult to do this, because I knew that a dangerous enemy was lurking a few meters away from me, and he was pointing a gun at me. But I had to 'force' myself to do it, because I knew in my heart that if I couldn't, then there would be a bullet waiting for me.
Although this puppet army agent also has to pay for this, Hu Zudi and they will definitely beat him so that they can't even find a complete piece of 'meat' on his body. But what's the use of that? I can't see it anymore, and I don't want to test it with my life.
Closer, closer
I was helpless to find that my walking route was just passing through him. An instinct made me want to avoid him, but when I thought about it, such a move was undoubtedly three hundred taels of silver here. So I had to go forward, like a snake that knew there was a poisonous snake in the grass, a poisonous snake that could bite me hard with its fangs at any moment, but still had to move closer to him
What is even more difficult is to pretend that nothing is happening under such strong psychological pressure.
Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced at my comrades, who were still focused on the puppet agents who were fighting and fleeing, and still 'shooting' bullets at the enemy, completely oblivious to my danger.
In fact, I also knew that no one could help me at this time, so I had to rely on myself.
"Bang bang......" I pulled the trigger of my rifle, used the sound of gunfire to hide the panic in my heart, and finally mustered up the courage to take the nearest step.
It was less than a meter away, and I was worried about whether I would step on his hands or feet, and if that were, I would no longer be able to pretend that I hadn't spotted him.
I could almost feel his breathing, but of course, it was just my imagination. The guy lurking in the grass must have been nervous as well, and as an agent, it was impossible for me to feel his breathing. It is said that under the psychological effect, sometimes things that are not there will become something, and I think the situation at this moment is what people often call psychological effects
I admit that I was nervous, and that I could die at any time when someone pointed a gun at gunpoint, and I think anyone can be nervous in this situation, even a veteran like me
Another step forward......
He didn't notice anything, and my heart was a little reassured, and I was moving away from danger.
I know that the puppet agent lurking on the ground can't move. As soon as he moved, he would expose his position to all the volunteer soldiers. So, I just had to take a few more steps to get behind him, and he couldn't point his gun at me anymore, unless he could jiu-jitsu or shoot with his toes.
Another step was taken
The feeling of being locked in was slowly disappearing, and I knew that I had stepped out of his perspective, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. I think it's not just me who breathes a sigh of relief at this time, but also the puppet agent lying on the ground.
This thought made me feel a little funny, either you are dead or I am two people alive, but at the same time I breathed a sigh of relief......
However, this was not the best time for me to attack, as I had only just walked to his flank, and the puppet agent had only just let his guard down, and if he spotted the danger, he could just adjust the angle of his weapon and aim at me before I could attack. I'm not sure I'll be able to kill him before I do. After all, I'm going to turn around, after all, he's hiding in the grass...... Although it was close, I only knew where he was and did not dare to look at it directly, so I did not know where his point was.
So, I made up my mind to wait until I got behind him. He was lying on the ground at that time, and he simply didn't have enough time to deal with my attack.
But at this moment, I was stunned to find that Lin Xue, who was on my right, was approaching me intentionally or unintentionally, and the route she was walking was just about to pass through the hiding place of the puppet army agent.
I felt this, and the puppet army agent lying on the ground also felt this from Lin Xue's rustling footsteps, so the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Can't wait any longer, this agent will soon turn his attention to Lin Xue, I can't let her be in any danger
After making up my mind, I didn't think much about it, and suddenly turned around and rushed towards the hiding place of the puppet army.
I also thought about whether I should use the rifle in my hand to shoot a few shots in the grass where the puppet army agents were hiding, but finally gave up this idea, because at this time, there were only two bullets in the chamber of my rifle, and if I failed to hit the vital point of the puppet army, then Lin Xue and I would have to wait for death
At this moment, I saw Lin Xue looking at me in shock, and she didn't understand why I suddenly turned to face her and pointed a gun in her direction. But I didn't care about it so much, and took a few steps towards the hiding place of the puppet army agent as fast as I could......
With the sound of "sand ......", the grass in front of him trembled like a "wave" and "wave", like a gust of wind blowing. Of course, I knew it wasn't the wind, but the movement of the puppet agents turning their weapons at me.
Yes, that's his gun
Without thinking about it, I stretched out my rifle and pressed it down hard at the 'wave' and 'wave'......
......A barrage of bullets hit my cheek and my arm down, and I realized later that there were a few more 'holes' in the padded clothes.
Of course, at that time, I naturally didn't care about my cotton clothes. All I knew was to press the rifle down and not let it turn in front of me, or the bullets would knock me into a sieve.
Lin Xue quickly pointed the gun in my direction, but she didn't dare to shoot, the enemy was too close to me, and her bullets were likely to hurt me by mistake, so she could only run in my direction with the gun. The other warriors apparently noticed the danger on my side as well, and immediately several warriors rushed over to reinforce me.
By this time I had already spotted my opponent's head, a head stained with mud and weeds, a disguise that would be hard to spot in the dark grass. But I could tell from those murderous eyes, and as soon as the muzzle of the gun was lowered, it was pressed against his head
The puppet army agent lying on the ground struggled for a moment, probably wanting to resist, but as soon as he saw the posture of my gun, he sighed, obediently threw the submachine gun in his hand on the ground, raised his hand and surrendered.
It was a 'Bo' * Sha submachine gun, which is not surprising, it is normal to use our weapons with volunteer soldiers, but what is unbelievable is that this guy still shook the blades of grass on the corner of his mouth for a long time, and calmly said a standard Chinese sentence: "Comrade, surrender the gun and don't kill it"
Lin Xue and other volunteer soldiers quickly caught up, Lin Xue picked up the submachine gun on the ground as soon as possible, and 'drawn' the pistol from the waist of the puppet army agent, glanced at me with a slightly flustered 'confused' look, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
"Can you still stand here if you have something?" I smiled, but a little forcefully, and God knows how much risk I had just taken
The other soldiers quickly surrounded him, one of them was Wang Xinhe, he rushed up without saying much, and gave him a rifle butt with a "bang", and the puppet army agent fell to the ground with a scream.
"Wang Xinhe" I stopped Wang Xinhe's further actions in time, because I know Wang Xinhe, he not only can't control his mouth, but also can't control his hands and feet
"Whoa" Wang Xinhe rudely spat on the face of the puppet army agent, and scolded a foul word, and then reluctantly retreated to the side.
"Commander Cui is not injured," Zheng Xinhai trotted all the way to me, and took the first aid kit on his waist in a hurry.
Zheng Xinhai is also a member of our Cold Gun Army, but because his father is a barefoot doctor, he has also been familiar with medical skills since he was a child, so it is natural for him to become a medical soldier in the Cold Gun Army.
I shook my head, my eyes fixed on the puppet agent in front of me, my rifle in my hand. Because I found that when Zheng Xinhai called me "Captain Cui", the muscles and flesh of his face 'twitched' twice fiercely. He raised his eyes slightly to look at me, just in time to make contact with mine, like two chains of fire touching. He didn't even glance at the gun, but quickly looked away and lowered his head.
It wasn't until the fighters tied his hands that I was relieved and let my guard down. Secretly said that this puppet army agent is really terrifying, if he hadn't noticed that I might shoot him at any time, maybe he would have taken the risk of playing his "infiltration tactics" at this time.
In other words, if he can hold any one person or any gun, it is very likely that he will cause us a lot of casualties and 'chaos'. However, we did not dare to shoot casually because of the penetrating power of the rifle, which gave him the opportunity to 'mix' the water and 'touch' the fish.
I waved at the warriors and motioned for them to continue their pursuit of the other puppet agents. Then she crouched down and handed him a cigarette, and thinking that his hands were tied behind his back, put it in his mouth and lit it for him.
He didn't refuse, he opened the corner of his mouth that was swollen like a steamed bun by Wang Xinhe, and then 'pumped' it up.
"Your Chinese is very good," I said, "where did you learn it?" ”
Actually, I've always wondered why he hadn't committed suicide by this time. But the way I ask the captives is usually to talk about it left and right, first relieve the psychological pressure of the other party, and then slowly say it as if chatting.
This method of interrogation proved to be very effective as well, because such interrogation could hardly be considered cross-examination, and the prisoners did not have the feeling of betraying their country and their comrades, although they did.
He gently twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, smiling unnaturally from the lump on his face and the cigarette in his mouth. Sensing that he wanted to speak, I helped him remove the cigarette from his mouth.
"I graduated from the Manchukuo Army Military Academy," he said, "I used to fight with the Eighth Route Army when I was in Hebei, and I learned Chinese at that time."
"Hmm" I knew I had caught a big fish.
In the past, he graduated from the Manchukuo Army Military Academy, that is, he became a soldier when Little Japan invaded China, and with the experience of fighting the Chinese army, coupled with fluent Chinese, such a person could not become an official.
Later, I learned that he was actually Captain Baek An-heon, the ace agent of South Korea in charge of the operation. He was also the only one captured by the volunteers in this special service battle. The other puppet agents were either killed by us or poisoned themselves. It's just ironic that he, as the captain of the puppet army agent and an ace agent, chose a way that was "smarter" than his subordinates, and that was to surrender
"Wondering why I surrendered?" Bai Anxian snorted some breath from his nostrils, which was his wry smile.
From this sentence, I knew that he was definitely a smart man, because he already knew my intentions in beating around the bush.
"I'm more curious," I replied.
In fact, for this battle, I need to know more about their hiding place, and I need to know how they escaped the search of Fan Jinqing's guard camp. In this way, we will be able to take precautions and be prepared for the next time. But I'm more curious about why he didn't commit suicide.
Bai Anxian said very calmly: "You have a saying in China, it is better to die than to live, those who will commit suicide are fools, they believe too much in those deceitful nonsense to serve the motherland."
I couldn't help but be silent as I heard this, I could hardly believe that these words were coming from the mouth of a gold agent who was also the captain of the secret service, but it was the truth.
"Is it your order to ask your subordinates to commit suicide while captured?" I asked rhetorically.
"Yes" Bai Anxian nodded, and then added: "It can also be said that it is not"
Although I, Bai Anxian, did not explain, I understood the meaning of his words. As the captain of a secret service team, what he said was actually involuntary. Therefore, his obviously contradictory words seem to be the truth and the truth.
"I've seen a lot of wars, but I'm just using us to fight for them."
Bai Anxian said something for no reason as if he was emotional. But it was this unprovoked sentence that made me suddenly understand and understand the reason why he chose to surrender.
He fought for at least two regimes, the Japanese army, which fought against the Chinese army under the leadership of the Japanese army, and the other that is now South Korea.
I think that most of the patriotic ideas he would have had were born when he served in the Japanese army. As a Korean, while his country was still moaning under the iron hooves of Japanese imperialism, he had to fight for the Japanese, and killed almost compatriots Chinese for them (there were quite a few Koreans at that time, who considered Korea to be part of China) If he still retains that passionate patriotism and is still as "stupid" as those subordinates who committed suicide, then I think he either went crazy during his service in the Japanese army or let the Japanese kill him.
"But don't you want me to tell you any valuable information" Bai Anxian seemed to feel cold, tightened the cotton clothes on his body and said: "I know that your Chinese army treats prisoners preferentially, and I also know that you will soon 'hand' over prisoners of war, so I don't need to tell you the information."
"What if I don't treat my captives well?" There was a murderous flash in my eyes.
As a soldier, I don't dare say it, but as a regimental commander, I believe that I still have the power to torture a prisoner. Even if I kill him, the superiors will at most be verbally criticized and just do superficial work. The ultimate purpose of the volunteers to give preferential treatment to prisoners is to make more enemies become our prisoners. So in special cases, special treatment will still be given.
"I know you have this ability, you are a regiment leader" Bai Anxian sensed my murderous intent and smiled lightly: "But do you think I am like that?" I can be loyal to my country, but I will never betray my comrades."
When Bai Anxian said these words, his voice was calm and steady, so I believe he will be able to do it. This is a very strange person, who values his comrades more than his country, but I seem to be able to understand him.
At this time, a soldier brought a backpack to me and came to me with a thumb-thick white 'colored' plastic hose in his hand and reported: "We found this."
Bai Anxian's face suddenly became very ugly, and I suddenly understood how the puppet army agents used to evade Fan Jinqing's search.
