Chapter 8: Infiltration
The gunfire stopped, and the terrible tremor in the air disappeared.
Illuminated by the midsummer sun of southern China, which has slanted westward, the once thriving road along the Huangpu River is long gone, replaced by a pile of smoky ruins and graveyard-like rubble.
Leaning on the sandbag, Shen Chen was gobbling up food, canned food, and biscuits, which was the preferential treatment that Captain Tian specially gave her.
This girl eats fast and a lot. Head Tian and the people around him all had this thought, and peeked with strange eyes from time to time.
The face was wiped slightly, although it was not washed thoroughly, but it could also be seen that the skin was fair and delicate, this look, this age, in any case, did not look like a refugee who fought with the Japanese in the Northeast and wandered thousands of miles to Shanghai.
Although Head Tian was curious, he didn't continue to ask, and he estimated that he wouldn't get a true answer if he asked again. This girl's eyes are flexible, and there must be a lot of ghost eyes. However, he is also good-looking, and as soon as he walks by, the eyes of many soldiers are straightened.
Eat more, not to grow meat, but to grow strength. Shen Chen can feel the changes in his body, anyway, he is not the deity, so he doesn't have to worry about growing into a muscular woman. It's obviously a bit irresponsible, but it's a real psychology.
"Gillian, Gillian-" The call suddenly sounded, startling Shen Chen, and he hurriedly peeked out from the cover like a thief.
The one who called her name was a classmate He Xiaoyan, the ambulance team she participated in. And the one standing next to He Xiaoyan turned out to be the loyal servant Ah Si, who was sent by the family to find her. The family didn't agree with her joining any ambulance team, and if they saw her, they would definitely have to be arrested.
The battle hasn't been enjoyed yet! Shen Chen hurriedly put on his mask, buttoned his hat, and quietly slipped away from the other side. If she doesn't agree, He Xiaoyan and Ah Si should ask others, she is the only woman in this position. Before they found out, they quickly slipped away.
Finding a hidden place for the cat, Shen Chen kept peeking out. After a long while, when night fell, I saw He Xiaoyan and Ah Si leave disappointed.
Whew-Shen Chen let out a sigh of relief, and stayed for a while before returning to the shelter, where there were still her guns and bullets!
At a glance, Head Tian saw that the girl had secretly come back again, and he thought of the person he was looking for just now, and he knew it in his heart. It's just that he was talking to a few soldiers, and he only nodded hurriedly to Shen Chen.
"Sir, our ambush team is ordered to infiltrate the Hongkou District and conduct mobile sniping attacks on the enemy." The squad leader of the sergeant squad of the Central Army conveyed the order to Commander Tian, "I hope the commander can assist." β
Sniper? Is there already such a term? Shen Chen's ears immediately froze.
Captain Tian read the warrant and nodded, looking at the ambush team composed of top marksmen. They are all veterans of a hundred battles, and they look inconspicuous, but they are all accurate marksmanship and rich battlefield experience.
"How can you help? Do you want us to launch a feint and create an opportunity for you? Head Tian asked uncertainly.
"Not really." Zhang Chengfu said: "The chief's headquarters has entered Hongkou, and the terrain and streets should be relatively familiar, and I hope the chief can provide guides." β
Head Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said, "This is easy, I'll arrange it right away." β
"I'll be the guide, I'm familiar with Hongkou!" Shen Chen hurriedly stretched out his hand to attract the attention of Head Tian.
Other people's attention is also focused, and the voice of the voice is a woman when you hear it, can you not feel strange!
"No, it's too dangerous." Head Tian shook his head and refused, and said, "Your marksmanship is fine, butβin short, it's safer for you to stay here." β
"Is your marksmanship good?" Zhang Chengfu smiled and didn't care, anyway, no matter how good his marksmanship was, he wouldn't surpass him and these brothers.
Shen Chen rolled her eyes, looking down on people, she could hear that tone, and she could understand that expression. She didn't say much, gathered her things, and turned to walk out of the hideout.
Swimming sniper, this should be what you are good at! And it's at night! Others don't understand, but Shen Chen knows his skills, in addition to sniping, he also has night eyes. Although it is not as powerful as infrared, it has a great advantage in the sniper of life and death.
Don't take me, I'll go by myself. If you stay on the position, it is more dangerous for planes and artillery! This is not a spur of the moment, but a consciousness of disregard for life and death born after being reborn again, or it may be a bold experience after the most dangerous experience.
Shen Chen thought like this and secretly prepared. Dry food, water bottles, bullets, broken sacks for camouflage...... Shen Chen cleaned up neatly, turned around, turned around the sandbag fortifications, and was startled, Zhao Youcai, who was tall and strong, was leaning against a low wall, looking at himself expressionlessly.
"Hi, Brother Zhao." Shen Chen grinned unnaturally, stretched out his hand and pointed casually, "I'll go over there - find a place to sleep." β
Zhao Youcai pursed the corners of his mouth, didn't speak, and didn't stop Shen Chen.
This excuse is good, the girl wants to sleep, are you embarrassed to follow? Shen Chen thought he had a plan, went around the construction work, entered the ruins of the shop next to him, turned twice, and felt that Zhao Youcai couldn't see it, so he bent his waist and sped up.
But after a while, Shen Chen stopped and hid. Someone followed, and she frowned.
It's Zhao Youcai! Don't look small, but the steps are very light. When he came closer, he saw no trace of Shen Chen, he coughed lightly and said, "Come out, I know what you want to do, and I won't stop you." Since the head of the regiment told me to protect you, then I have to follow you and fulfill my responsibilities. β
Shen Chen thought about it and walked out, the cold moonlight was shining on Zhao Youcai's face, she looked at it carefully, pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother Zhao, don't say much else, thank you!" β
Zhao Youcai seemed to sigh and smiled bitterly, making his plain and rigid face a little angry.
The two of them walked one after the other, walking through the ruins and broken walls, sometimes disappearing, sometimes walking and sometimes stopping, sometimes lying down and sometimes cat's waist, avoiding the devils several times, bypassing the devil's position, entering Hongkou District, and coming to the vicinity of Hongkou Park.
"You're a night eye?" Zhao Youcai asked very strangely, but it made Shen Chen's heart tremble.
After thinking about it, what Zhao Youcai said about the night eye and his own skills are not the same thing, Shen Chencai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and said: "Good nutrition, night owl eyes, amazing, right?" β
At that time, in China, due to poverty and lack of nutrition, the number of people suffering from night blindness was quite large. Even in the Chinese* army, there are many soldiers who suffer from this disease.
Although Zhao Youcai is not night blind, he still sighs to himself when compared with Shen Chen. In the process of stealth, on the contrary, it was Shen Chen who was often the first to discover the enemy situation and warn him.
This girl is really strange and strange. Zhao Youcai glanced at Shen Chen, and couldn't figure it out.
