The detachment returned to the camp and rested for the day. After dusk, they set out on the road back to the base area.

During these days in the mine, the personnel were expanded, the equipment increased, and the battles were won. What is even more valuable is that the combat experience and combat quality have been greatly improved.

Let's talk about landmines, the speed and level of laying have made great progress. This is tantamount to giving the guerrillas a weapon of considerable power, which is quite effective against the enemy's delay, blockade, and so on.

For this reason, Zhao Tie had the idea of compiling a textbook on mine warfare, hoping to popularize this method of warfare on a larger scale.

Even if a mine only injures an enemy, if the anti-Japanese forces everywhere skillfully use it, the blow to the aggressor will be huge and heavy.

The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression behind enemy lines was more of a war of attrition, and even if a guerrilla force eliminated one devil a day, it would be two squadrons in a year, and it could almost kill all the Japanese troops in a small area.

Of course, this is just an idealized calculation. However, the equipment and quality were far behind the anti-Japanese forces of the Japanese army, and more battles were fought piecemeal, accumulating small victories into big victories.

Therefore, landmines are not only inexpensive, simple and easy to build, but also a safe and efficient weapon. In particular, the delay and obstruction of the enemy's rapid movement can better provide a buffer time for the transfer of military and civilians.

Moreover, Shen Chen seemed to be unconscious, but he deliberately showed the flexible use of landmines to the team members. Only with clever use can the laying of mines no longer passively wait for the enemy to step on them, but can lure the enemy to be bombed.

When blocking the Hanzhuang stronghold to aid the enemy, Shen Chen did just that. And burying a few in front of the blocking position, not only did the team members think that it was a barrier, and their psychology was more stable, but it also made the enemy feel palpitations and did not dare to charge violently.

Zhao Tie's idea is very good, and he once had the idea of letting Shen Chen write it, but judging from Damei's life, she has no education. You may be able to read some words, but this kind of high level of education is obviously not enough.

Shen Chen himself didn't want to be too different, he had already made up a master who was born in the Volunteer Army, did he want to make up an old gentleman who taught him to read and write?

The detachment rushed back to the base area and arrived at Chen Village. Combined, the total number of the two squads has exceeded eighty.

Relatively speaking, the small detachment that went deep into the mining area expanded rapidly, with strong men and horses, and complete weapons.

However, the squad led by Lao Zhou has also fought so many battles with the enemy, all of which are petty fights and harassment and attacks, and the results are not big, let alone captured.

In fact, they are all guerrillas, and there is no such thing as a merit or a competitive force.

But the leaders don't think so, and the players do have the psychology of comparing and showing off, which is also human nature.

Back in Chen Village, Shen Chen went to the house where he had rested and slept. As soon as I saw that it was still a girl's house, I honestly and unceremoniously occupied a place, stripped and slept.

The team that moved, transferred, and carried the captured and returned team was indeed sleepy, except for Zhao Tie, the others also found a place to rest.

Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou came to the headquarters to exchange information and intelligence with each other and make plans for the next step.

Lao Zhou listened to the team's several actions in the mining area and was greatly excited. He proposed to divide the guerrillas into four squads, each of which numbered more than twenty people. In terms of personnel allocation, he hopes that there will be a mix of those who remain behind and those who have infiltrated.

Zhao Tie understood what Lao Zhou meant, after all, the team he led had experienced several special battles, and it did have more experience.

"This Xiaochen, alas, is still called Da Mei Shunkou." Lao Zhou smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Her uncle's family has also moved in, so I don't have so much to worry about, I think it's okay to call Damei back." ”

Zhao Tie nodded with a smile and said, "Da Mei, Da Mei, no fight, no fight." I think it's okay, it has a meaning, I can't beat the devils! ”

Lao Zhou laughed twice and said: "Da Mei, this girl still has to be reused, although she is a little free and slow, but she is not ambiguous in fighting, and she has many ghost eyes, and her team can't suffer." ”

Zhao Tie pondered for a moment and said, "I think Cao Xiaobao is still the vice captain." Da Mei is reluctant to take care of the idle things in the team, but Cao Xiaobao is very careful, and the two of them cooperate well. ”

"Da Mei is not like the two of us are worried about their lives." Lao Zhou shook his head and said, "It's okay, there is someone who worries about her, and this team can't make a big difference." ”

Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhao Tie said that he had smashed open the safe and seized some gold bars and silver dollars, and was ready to send someone to the Zhangzhuang District Committee.

"These belongings are really raining in time!" Lao Zhou sighed: "The anti-sweep is about to end, and the reconstruction work is about to begin, which can be regarded as solving the urgent need of the district committee." ”

Zhao Tie nodded and said, "The sweeping enemy is retreating, how can we fight, we can't let the enemy go back easily." ”

Lao Zhou unfolded the map, pointed and said: "To deal with a large number of enemies, the guerrillas are still unable to catch it. Therefore, I wanted to use more mines to kill and injure the enemy, and the location of the ambush was roughly here, and I would retreat after a hit. ”

Zhao Tie looked at the map carefully and felt that although this ambush site could not deal any big blow to the enemy, it was convenient to retreat.

And according to the strength of the guerrillas, it is true that they cannot have too much appetite for colliding with the large group of enemies who have swept and retreated.

"Landmines are a good thing." Zhao Tie agreed with Lao Zhou's plan and talked about his thoughts, "I think the two of us will take time out of our free time to write a simple textbook. Even if it is only for the militia of the whole region to learn and master this weapon, it will be beneficial for the future struggle. ”

Lao Zhou patted his thigh and said, "You're so right. It's just that my education level is low, I'm afraid I can't afford this burden! ”

Zhao Tie laughed and said, "Your education level is low, so I am high?" None of us know anyone, and it's not all at the level of half a catty. ”

"Catch the ducks on the shelves!" Lao Zhou thought about it for a while, and waved his hand vigorously, "Let's deal with it first, and then find a high-level revision and supplement later." ”

Seeing that the matter was decided, Zhao Tie was also sleepy and tired, and couldn't help yawning, and said, "It's troublesome for you to do the preparations, and I also have to rest and rest." ”

Lao Zhou patted Zhao Tie's arm and said, "Go to sleep!" The team will set off tomorrow, you don't have to worry about any preparations, rest assured. ”

Zhao Tie walked out of the command headquarters, but dutifully went to see the team members, and saw that they were all settled down to rest, so he found a place to sleep.

Besides, Shen Chen, when he slept in a daze, he felt that someone was squeezing on him. She thought that someone else had also come back to sleep, maybe it was a small place, so she shrunk inside, turned sideways and continued to sleep.

"Xiaochen is too tired, let's talk about it tomorrow!" Chang Chunling yawned and whispered.

Yang Ye gave up the temptation to wake up Shen Chen a little unwillingly, turned around, and whispered to Chang Chunling: "I have discussed it with Xiao Dan, let Xiao Chen take the time to teach us well." You know, although nominally a guerrilla, maybe not much time to fight. If you had good marksmanship and could fight, it would be different, right? ”

Chang Chunling snorted and said lazily: "This is a good thing, I also thought so." But I don't think it's very appropriate to say it now. It's going to be a war again, and Xiaochen doesn't have time! It's better to wait for the end of the anti-sweep and concentrate on training, let her give us a small stove to eat and teach us the tricks. ”

Zhao Xiaodan nodded, feeling that what he said made sense, so he said: "Chunling is right, let's not worry, let's wait a while." ”

Shen Chen didn't sleep too hard, but he didn't bother to talk, and he listened to it in a flash, and he didn't know what was going on.

……………

The gray clouds moved slowly, the sunlight dimmed, and they peeked down from time to time through the cracks in the clouds, as if in contemplation.

Shen Chen, who had slept and eaten enough, had to devote all his mind and energy to the battle with the devil.

This time, the preparations were more thorough, the personnel were more, the weapons were better, and the combat experience of the team members was also richer. In addition, the weapon of landmines also gave the guerrillas the confidence to fight devils.

Chinese often say "providence" just as foreigners often say "God". When coincidences cannot be explained, they are dealt with with by "providence".

Even poverty, wealth, wind, rain, etc., will be called providence by the common people. Providence cannot be disobeyed, just like God rolls the dice, you can't know what time it will be.

But in the dark, there is always a mysterious hand that plucks everything in the world. Is it true that everything is under God's control, and that nothing is accidental?

Let's just say that this time the guerrillas are dispatched to ambush and sweep away the devils who retreat!

It wasn't easy to get close to the road, but the action went unusually well. It seems that the Chinese gods are also helping the guerrillas to deal a blow to the foreign invaders.

After arriving at the ambush site, Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou observed the terrain, revised the battle plan again, and began to deploy troops and lay mines.

And Shen Chen's perspective is different from theirs, he thinks about how to maximize his specialty - sniping.

Sniping, to explain it simply, is to lie in ambush in a hidden place and wait for an opportunity to attack. But to implement this tactic perfectly, it is a series of rather complex processes.

Shen Chen was very courageous, but he was not reckless, and he also paid great attention to safety while killing the enemy. This requires him to be able to snipe at the enemy in a concealed position, and preferably to make it difficult for the enemy to approach.

Is there such a great location? Of course there is, and this place is insidious and will drive enemies crazy.

At the bend of the road is a steep stone wall, more than 20 meters high, three or four hundred meters away from the road. In other words, the enemy will not be able to climb when he rushes over, but will become Shen Chen's condescending shooting target.

And to detour the road uphill, the nearest mountain road is also about two miles. Of course, this is not the only reason why Shen Chen chose this place.

Such a good place, why didn't Lao Zhou choose, Zhao Tie didn't find it when he arrived at the scene!

The reason is also very simple, and that is the problem of distance. Not to mention three or four hundred meters, for the guerrillas, those who can hit the target within 100 meters can already be regarded as good marksmanship.

Therefore, Lao Zhou and Zhao Tie chose a forest about 100 meters away from the main road.

Mines can be planted on the main roads, mines can be laid in the woods, and behind the woods is a winding path up the mountain. The mountain is not high, and the guerrillas can quickly climb up and move along the mountain beams.

Shen Chen felt that such an arrangement could not only hit the enemy, but also quickly transfer, which could be described as easy to fight and run. But he was still confident in his choice, and won the consent of Lao Zhou and Zhao Tie.

With his team, Shen Chen and his team climbed the stone cliff and unexpectedly found a good sniper position.

A crack in the middle of the stone wall was so old that it had been hidden by rubble and snow. But now it was reopened, and a well-like cave was dug deeper and deeper, and it widened bigger and bigger.

Shen Chen measured the depth of the cave with a rope, well, it is already more than two meters deep, it should be okay.

"Alright, no need to dig any further." Shen Chen shouted at the people in the cave: "Dig out, take out a shè hole, the bucket is as thick." ”

"Got it!" There was an urn sound from the cave, and the urn replied angrily.

Shen Chen stood on the edge of the cliff, stretched out his thumb, and estimated the distance to the road. Nearly four hundred meters is too far for others, but for Shen Chen, it is not his limit.

Of course, it's not easy to get a headshot at this distance. But a headshot is of course the best, but if you pursue such an effect too much, you will lose a lot of opportunities, a lot of opportunities to kill the enemy.

The battlefield is not a place to show off, but a stage to kill. When a bullet hits the head, it has the same effect as a bullet in the chest and abdomen.

Taking off the spear on his body, Shen Chen adjusted the ruler and began to aim on the avenue.

It was a strangely shaped crooked tree on the side of the road, with an inconspicuous strip of cloth tied to the height of the person, fluttering in the wind, just as a reference.

Because the biggest difficulty in shooting from here is the effect of crosswinds, which cannot be overcome, and if the adjustment is not good, the hit rate of shooting will be greatly reduced.

Careful and meticulous, Shen Chen repeatedly estimated and aimed repeatedly, although he did not test fire, he also had some confidence in his heart.

"Whoa!" With a bang, crushed stones wrapped in snow and earth chips rolled down from the stone wall, and a cry of joy came from the cave, "It's through, it's through." ”

A shooting hole hidden in the middle of the cliff! Would you like it? A sneer appeared on Shen Chen's face.

Cao Xiaobao was called, and Shen Chen asked him to take the rest of the team to ambush on the mountain road. Lay mines, throw grenades, take advantage of the favorable terrain there and deal a blow to the enemy who is trying to come up in the way.

At the same time, the sound of the explosion will also provide an early warning to Shen Chen. At that time, that is, he was about to start retreating.

"Captain, leave two of you behind!" Cao Xiaobao suggested with concern: "It's just a root, it's not very safe." ”

Shen Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "Here, it is the safest." I didn't retreat from the mountain road, but I pulled a long rope behind the cliff, slid down and ran. ”

"With me with the captain, you can all rest assured." Yu Baogen took care of everything, and he almost patted his chest to ensure Shen Chen's safety.
