Chapter 5: Night Attack on the Bunker

Cover rolls, baskets with dry food and sundries, just these things, Shen Chen is going to go to the so-called big family in the town to be a reading girl.

Taking advantage of the fact that the disappearance of the fat head had not attracted the attention of others, Shen Chen was about to leave during the day the next day, and naturally he lied to his uncle and aunt.

"Da Mei, when you get to a big family, you have to hold back your temper and don't provoke and scold." Xiaohuaniang knew what happened to Juanzi, who was a girl in He's house, for fear that Da Mei would follow in her footsteps, so she wiped her tears and reminded her.

"Got it, auntie." Shen Chen casually agreed, wanting to take the cover roll, but Erdan had already picked it up first, and walked to the courtyard silently to wait.

"Then I'll go, you take care of my uncle at home, as well as Xiaohua, Erdan, and Xiaostin." Shen Chen picked up the basket and walked out.

"Sister Da Mei, I'll send you too." Xiaohua grabbed Shen Chen's hand.

Shen Chen nodded, stopped his aunt's send-off, turned around and walked out of the courtyard, accompanied by Erdan and Xiaohua, and walked out of the village.

I walked to the T-shaped street again, the miners were all working, it seemed quite deserted here, and the second girl who sold sugar was not there, I don't know what the reason was.

Shen Chen hesitated, and finally didn't buy steamed buns or flatbread for Erdan and Xiaohua to eat.

Although you can get some money by killing the fat head, it is better to avoid suspicion and not let people pay attention.

Walking out of the village, Shen Chen asked Erdan and Xiaohua to go back, saying that he would not let them send them again.

Although Erdan and Xiaohua were reluctant, Shen Chen's eyes still made the two children feel scared, so they had to wave goodbye and walk towards the village step by step.

Shen Chen watched Erdan and Xiaohua walk away, and then turned around and went on the road.

Walking to the small dirt mountain in the north of the village, Shen Chen became cautious and cautious, looked around, and saw that there were few pedestrians and no one was paying attention, so he went into the grove under the mountain.

She stopped under a marked tree, crouched down and dug and digged, and took out the pistol and hand bullets wrapped in rags in the earth, where she had hidden the previous night.

The "three boxes" that are not old and half-new, that is, the police-type barge gun with a short barrel (97mm) and a small-sized grip.

Shen Chen is no stranger to this, although it is not too suitable for her current hand shape and strength, but she has experience and should adapt quickly.

At this time, Shen Chen had time to carefully inspect the guns and ammunition, and used them a little skillfully.

Feeling that it was almost over, she pinned the gun to her waist, covered her jacket with a small flower, and her confidence spontaneously rose, and she walked out of the woods and went into the distance.

…………………

Stone Wolf Valley.

Under the cold wind, the woods on the mountain let out a roar like a wave, shaking off the snow and dust on their bodies.

A flash of sunset on the top of the west mountain was about to disappear, and a figure flashed on the saddle-shaped path where the glow shimmered.

That's right, it's Shen Chen.

She carried a long stick on her back, walked quickly, but was very alert, watching and listening, when she saw the swarthy bluestone ridge from afar, it was already dark.

The light came out of the gun hole of the big pillbox on the bluestone ridge, like a monster, blinking his eyes, staring at Pingchuan in the west of the ridge.

This is the edge of the enemy-occupied area, which can be regarded as the first line of defense for blockade and blockade.

Because it is the first line of defense, it has been attacked by guerrillas before.

Therefore, the cunning devil used this place as an early warning watchtower, and only sent a squad of puppet troops to garrison it, and the three-story turret on the red stone hill two or three miles apart was the one with the most garrisons and the strongest force.

Although he really wants to win the 38 big cover, Shen Chen also knows the truth that the easy first is the difficult and then the difficult, and he can't be too hasty in everything, and he can't be too reckless and impatient.

Short guns, long guns, three eight big covers. It is obviously safer and safer to follow this procedure. Moreover, even snatching a gun from the puppet army is not so easy.

The puppet army stationed in the Qingshiling bunker knew the role of their cannon fodder, and they also made as much precautionary arrangements as possible for the safety of their lives.

The trees around the bunker have been cut down, and with a slope facing the avenue, it is easy to spot the bunker.

A watchtower with a fence was also built on the slope of the mountain, and two or three puppet soldiers were sent to guard the barricades, which could be regarded as a peripheral warning of the pillbox.

The puppet army squad leader and a few puppet soldiers hid in the big pillbox, and rarely came out as soon as it was dark.

Shen Chen found a cave in the deep mountains and old forests of Shihuyu, and reconnoitred the two strongholds of Hongshigang and Qingshiling for two or three days, and the dry food she brought was almost exhausted, so she made up her mind to attack the puppet army on Qingshiling.

There are no impregnable, flawless fortresses and fortifications, and history has proven this, not to mention the pillboxes on the bluestone ridge, it is up to you to find a way.

The flaw in the bunker on the bluestone ridge is on the cliff behind, that is, on the side of the red stone hill. Because of the devils in Hongshigang, the puppet army in Qingshiling was obviously more relieved, and they were a little negligent about the attack from behind.

Moreover, what Shen Chen wanted to attack was a pillbox with an early warning watchtower on the periphery, and the vigilance of the puppet army inside was obviously lower.

Of course, how to climb the cliff is a test for Shen Chen, as long as he can climb up, the action is almost half the success. In this regard, she has some preparations, but whether it is successful or not depends on practice.

The moon had risen, and the night had turned pale. The shadows seemed to have dispersed, and the scenery was much clearer, and I could even make out the dry stalks of grass sticking out of the snow under my feet.

Shen Chen stood under the cliff and looked up.

In some places, it is so prominent that it seems to be about to collapse; In some places, it is recessed again, as if there is a deep cavern inside.

In the crevices above and below the rocks, there were wild miscellaneous trees and wattles with bent branches, which looked like the coarse hairs of giants. Painted with a layer of vast night, it looks even more ferocious and terrifying.

Seven or eight meters tall, Shen Chen had estimated it during the day. Moreover, this cliff has a certain slope, not straight up and down, so the difficulty will be reduced.

In addition, the miscellaneous trees and wattles between the cracks in the stone are also points that can be used to borrow money. As long as there are hooks, ropes, etc., it is entirely possible to climb up.

The sound of the wind in the mountains came in bursts, and the cold moonlight added to the heavy atmosphere around it.

Shen Chen stretched out the long stick sharpened with the branches as much as he could, used the branches left on it as a hook, hooked a tenacious small tree, and pulled it down hard, feeling that it was strong enough to hang his body, so he grabbed the long stick hard, kicked the stone cracks and bulges on the cliff, and slowly climbed up.

Climbed to the small tree, which was already more than two meters above the ground. Shen Chen slowed down, stretched out his long stick again, and tried to hook and pull, looking for the next point of force.

For climbing, not only physical strength is required, but also balance, agility, and softness are indispensable weapons, and skill will make you get twice the result with half the effort.

Shen Chen roughly made a few kinds of mountain-climbing equipment, although it was simple, it could avoid the result of being crushed when it was dangerous.

She moved very carefully, constantly testing the strength of the protruding stones and branches sticking out of the cliff, finding as much place as possible to secure the safety rope tied to her body, and then climbing up.

When climbing, the more power you use with your feet, the less likely your muscles will be to get tired. But there were places where there was no place to stay, so she could only rely on her hands, hold the stick tightly, and move slowly with her feet in the air.

Fortunately, the stone walls here block the mountain wind, otherwise a stronger wind would have added danger to her.

Grabbing, picking, pulling, bracing, pushing, kicking, straddling...... Shen Chen used all his strength to climb up slowly but firmly.

And the cliff of seven or eight meters is not too high, and Shen Chen's body can support it.

Finally, she reached out and grabbed a flat edge and rolled over.

Suddenly, the eyes suddenly opened up, the wind blew in the face, and the starry sky seemed to be within reach.

The sound of the forest is bursting, reckless and firm. In front of her eyes, the white and black mountains stretched out continuously, like an ink-stained landscape painting.

The sea reaches the boundless sky as the shore, and the mountain climbs to the top of the peak. For Shen Chen, who conquered the mountain cliff, he was spontaneously proud and ambitious at this time, and he couldn't help but stretch out his fist and wave it vigorously.

……………

The night air became darker and more solemn, and the crystal stars twinkled in the vast gray sky. The surrounding trees rustled as if frightened. The sound of the waves is surging, like an elegy.

When, when, when! The watchtower on the hillside knocked three times, and the sound reached the mountain, which was already very weak, which was a signal to report safety, and it would ring every hour.

"It's your turn." A puppet soldier in the bunker turned over in a daze, didn't look at anyone, and muttered in his mouth.

Yawning, another puppet soldier lazily got up from the bunk, took off the bonnet hanging on the wall, and staggered out of the bunker, knocking it three times.

That's right, the watchtower and the bunker are in two-way communication, reporting safety to each other. This can be regarded as a relatively safe measure, and the puppet army has not completely relaxed the vigilance of the pillbox.

Damn*! Shen Chen, who was hiding close to the bunker and was waiting for the puppet army to come out and knock on the bang, cursed secretly.

If it was the simplest action, she could take out the puppet army, but this guy was surprisingly lazy and didn't even carry a gun. Gritting his teeth, Shen Chen still decided to do it.

After the puppet army sent the signal of safety, he turned around and walked towards the bunker, sleepy-eyed and defenseless, not realizing that Shen Chen jumped up behind him and rushed towards him.

Well? The puppet army heard the noise behind him and turned to look. Shen Chen had already rushed forward, raised his hands, and the muzzle of the gun, wrapped in several layers of torn cotton wool, almost made a dull sound against the face of the puppet army.

Before he could make a sound, the puppet army fell to the ground with a third eye, and the bang in his hand fell, and was blocked by Shen Chen hurriedly with his feet, without making too much noise.

Shen Chen didn't feel uncomfortable with killing people at all, but this body still needed to be strengthened, and holding the gun in both hands was also a way to make up for it.

Shen Chen approached the bunker and peeked inside through the gun's eye first.

In the dim light, four dead pig-like puppet soldiers slept on several plank beds, and a crooked sub-machine gun was mounted on the firing hole in the direction of the hillside.

After thinking about it secretly, Shen Chen slowly opened the iron door, entered the bunker in a flash, and gently closed the door.

Still holding the gun in both hands, he shot at the head of the puppet army on the bunk at a close distance.

After the muffled sound, Shen Chen walked quickly, and there was another one. Then he turned around and faced the two puppet soldiers on the other side, Shen Chen's heart had settled down.

The two puppet soldiers were awakened by the sound, but they reacted quickly and slowly, and the first to stare wide-eyed and half-body became the target of the first death.

"Woo Woo" two shots, the puppet army was hit by two bullets, and one fell on the bunk; The last puppet army squad leader reacted at this time, reached under the pillow and touched the gun, and wanted to scream in his mouth.

"Bah, bah!" Two gunshots rang out, and the puppet squad leader stopped moving, leaving only convulsions. Shen Chen was afraid that he would not die, so he quickly stepped forward and shot him in the head again.

Wrapped in a cut quilt around the muzzle, such a simple silencer, of course, does not work professionally.

But the bunker is not close to the watchtower, and it is in the bunker, it is estimated that the puppet army in the watchtower is also confused, plus the sound of the wind blowing trees and weeds......

In short, fortunately, Shen Chen's actions were not discovered by the puppet army in the watchtower halfway up the hill.

Originally, Shen Chen was ready to be discovered, according to the puppet army's fear of death, he only needed to block it from the bunker, the puppet army didn't know the truth and the truth, and the three or two of them would definitely not attack at night.

It is estimated that most of them are indiscriminately discharging guns and shouting, and recruiting reinforcements from the devils in the Hongshigang stronghold.

Even this little time was enough for Shen Chen to take the captured guns and ammunition down the cliff and escape into the deep mountains and old forests.

Now, there's even more time. Shen Chen first took out the pistol under the pillow of the puppet army squad leader, which was a pistol commonly known as "Ba Yinzi", and its official model was the Belgian M1900 Browning automatic pistol.

The most representative of this gun is its sleeve structure, which is contrary to most pistols, using a compound spring on the top and the barrel on the bottom, which seems a bit strange.

Not bad, at least it's smaller than a shell gun, and it's easy to hide. Shen Chen picked up the pistol and examined the spears of the puppet soldiers from branch to branch. Luckily, she saw at a glance that two of them were 38 big covers.

Although the Japanese have also supplied weapons to the puppet army, these puppet soldiers are obviously not among them.

Because the 38 big cover was finalized as early as 1905 (Meiji 38), and when the Beiyang government was in power, it began to import to China and equip the Beiyang army.

Later, Japan successively provided a large number of Type 38 rifles to various warlords such as the Feng faction, the Jin faction, the Gui faction, the Yue faction, and the Ma Jiajun, and their purpose was nothing more than to "use China to contain China" to intensify the internal chaos in China, and even the Chinese Communist Party obtained some through smuggling.

In addition, the arsenals in Shanxi, Northeast and other places also used to copy a large number of Type 38 rifles, and the monthly output of Shanxi Taiyuan Arsenal alone reached 3,000 at that time, which was collectively called "65 rifles" because of its caliber of 6.5mm.

Therefore, the number of imported and imitation - "Type 38 and 65 rifles" in China can be described as very large.

Judging from the degree of newness and the inscriptions on them, these two 38 large covers are obviously not products after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, but for Shen Chen, they are already an unexpected gain, much stronger than the other rifles.

Guns, bullets, satchels, belts, clothes, water bottles, money, ...... There are even more than ten catties of rice noodles, some salt, a pot of kerosene and a relatively clean bed.

Shen Chen made two big bags and made two trips back and forth before moving to the edge of the cliff, and used ropes and leggings to go down the cliff.
