Chapter 30: Breaking Out of the Blockade
Shen Chen pursed the corners of his mouth, with a cruel smile on his face, he led the devils to a place with few hidden objects, and these two devils were already dying.
Moved and transposed, aiming at the devil lying in the hollow. Shen Chen raised the muzzle of the gun slightly, pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot diagonally into the devil's waist from top to top.
The devil screamed and slumped up in pain, but he did not die.
The devil in the watchtower shouted angrily, shot after shot, shooting from the window in the direction of Shen Chen's approximate hiding.
Shen Chen crawled slowly, changed places, and raised his gun to aim.
If this devil hid in the watchtower and didn't move, Shen Chen might not really be able to kill him.
But this guy has been carried away by anger or fear, cursing, and constantly using shots to vent, which also gives Shen Chen the opportunity to perform again.
In the pillbox on the ridge, the devil's machine gun was shooting desperately, and a devil's soldier Cao was walking back and forth on the ground, and then rushed to the shooting hole, looking out.
The white mountain forest, the bleak moonlight, nothing can be seen. The wails of his companions were heard, and the face of the devil soldier Cao was slightly distorted.
"Hashimoto, where are you shooting?" With nowhere to vent his anger, the Devil Army Cao took two quick steps, pulled the shooter away, and he picked up his machine gun and fired wildly outside.
After an inadvertent gunshot outside, there seemed to be no more sound. Only the badly injured devil made a cry for help, and it grew weaker and weaker.
This kind of invisible enemy battle is the most terrible and the most demoralizing.
The Devil Army Cao shot a shot, gasped and stopped. It's not that I'm tired, but I feel that this is useless, and I am extremely angry.
The people of China are really despicable and shameless, and they will only sneak up and shoot coldly. If you fight with dignity, you will not be able to match the Imperial Japanese Army.
The Japanese soldier Cao widened his eyes and gritted his teeth and gurgled as he howled loudly: "Coward, get out if it's a man." With that, he picked up his machine gun and swept a barrage of bullets outside.
Snap, a bullet came from the outside, diagonally hitting the wall of the shooting hole.
The crumbling cement debris hit the face of the Devil Soldier Cao, who took a step back, and several blood marks had been scratched on his face.
"Baga" Devil Jun Cao touched his face, then looked at the blood on his hands, and scolded viciously.
But he was very afraid in his heart, if the bullet came in, it might kill him, and if the cement debris was more off, he might blind his eyes.
Moreover, although he is brave, he still has some brains. It's dark now, and it's very easy to be attacked when you go out, and no matter how angry you are, you have to wait until dawn.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Zhao Tie and the others rushed over smoothly, and under the leadership of Wu Qiang, they stepped on the snow, walked through the woods, and entered a small river valley.
In the middle of the night, the steep cliffs on both sides of the river valley face each other majestically, and a huge shadow covers the entire river valley, only above the unattainable cliff face, a piece of moonlight is reflected.
In the shadows, the people walking at the bottom of the ditch seem very small. A small river was not yet completely frozen, and it meandered along the winding valley and flowed into the distance.
There is no road, just along the edge of the mountain wall, wading through shallow water, stepping on snow and ice.
The gunshots rang out in the back and forth, and as they faded away, the sound gradually became quieter.
"Will the hero be fine?" Erhuzi asked with some concern.
Lao Zhou shook his head and said: "I have confidence in her, at the beginning, I didn't feel anything, but the more I contacted, the more I felt that she was unfathomable, and she seemed to have skills that we didn't know yet." β
"If I have the ability of a hero, no, as long as I can catch up with half of him, I will kill the little devil to cry and call my mother." Zhu Zi sighed: "It's a pity, in the eyes of the heroes, we are just a burden, not only can't help, but add to the chaos." β
"You don't have to say that." Lao Zhou smiled and said, "Everything is learned, let's work harder in the future." β
"Uncle Zhou, Lao Zhao didn't follow." Erhuzi suddenly found that Zhao Tie didn't know where to go.
Lao Zhou nodded and said, "Let's just wait here for a while, Lao Zhao is not at ease, so he stays at the mountain pass to answer." β
Besides, Zhao Tie didn't enter the river valley, but turned around and went back to the woods, sneaking to the edge of the woods to peek out.
Although it is difficult to find Shen Chen's figure, Zhao Tie couldn't help but be amazed when he saw the devils' chickens and dogs.
is so accurate marksmanship, so stealthy movement, it turns out that the devil has no temper at all. Slowly, he also figured out a little way.
The cover of the night, the clever stealth of concealment, the camouflage suit that is difficult to find, and the accurate marksmanship are all magic weapons to win.
The devil has never been able to find Shen Chen's exact location, and he has no strength but nowhere to go. The machine guns were happy, but this kind of blind shooting did not pose much of a threat to him.
Moreover, Shen Chen's movement was as close as possible to the dead end of the machine gun, whether he was a master of art and bold, or was he addicted to murder, so he was unhurried and whirled.
ββ¦β¦ The battle entered a very strange situation, you can't imagine that a dozen heroic soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army could be blocked by a single gun, or rather frightened. In the face of the sniper fire of the bandits in China, we had to huddle in the bunker and shoot blindly through the firing holes......"
"But we can't rush out or poke our heads out, this scoundrel has an excellent marksmanship and loves to aim at our heads! I saw my companions fall one by one because they were exposed, and several of them had bloody heads...... "βββ from the war diary of Taro Hashimoto, Private of the First Class
Shen Chen shot at the shooting hole of the bunker, and was a little disappointed when he saw that there was no movement for a long time.
Why doesn't this devil come out and fight hard, it's best to have a long live charge or something, Lao Tzu will send you back to your hometown one by one.
But Shen Chen also knew that if he wanted to rush up and occupy the bunker, it would be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
It's time to go, it's not so pleasant to climb in the snow, and the devil can't freeze in the bunker.
Thinking of this, Shen Chen slowly crawled towards the woods. At this moment, he saw a figure lying and crouching behind a bush at the edge of the woods.
He was still familiar with Zhao Tie's figure, so he just raised the gun slightly, and then lowered it again. I wondered in my heart, why did this guy come back again, could it be that they were in trouble again? Forget it, let's go over and ask first
Zhao Tie's eyes widened suddenly, and he finally saw Damei's figure, almost blending with the grass, trees, rocks, and snow.
Probably out of the devil's shooting range, Da Mei moved faster, otherwise, it would still be difficult for him to find him.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The horizon gradually brightened, as if someone had smeared a layer of pink on the pale cyan sky, and countless golden rays of light were hidden under the pink.
Suddenly, the pink clouds were washed away, the sky opened, and the sun rose over the sleepy earth, blessing all things on the earth with its generosity and selflessness, the living and the dead, the living and the dying, and thus began the devotion of the day.
After walking for almost two hours, everyone finally passed through the small river valley, and their eyes were bright.
A large road covered with snow winds along the winding river, and the river beside the road winds like a belt to the left and right.
Where the river crosses the main road, the bridges that have been washed away by the flash flood have not been repaired, and only a few large bridges stand in the middle of the river.
The group walked and laughed. I broke through the blockade of the devils, shipped out the brimstone, and got a lot of loot, and I was in a good mood.
Zhao Tie has been walking in front of and behind Shen Chen, he is really interested in this girl.
"I've seen sharpshooters in the army, but in all fairness, I don't have the upper hand compared to devils." Taking advantage of the time to stop and rest temporarily, Zhao Tie couldn't help but admire: "But look at you, but the devil has nothing to do." β
Shen Chen smiled and said, "If it's in the daytime, it's an upright battle, and the fighting quality of the devil is still quite good." β
"Hehe, from your point of view, it's not an exaggeration to give such an evaluation to the devil. But in the eyes of others, the fighting quality of the devil is extremely good, including me. Zhao Tie smiled bitterly and said: "However, if you can join the guerrillas, the combat skills of other comrades still depend on your teaching!" β
Shen Chen thought for a moment and said, "I can give some pointers." However, I will only teach stealthy killing, and the rest will not be very proficient. β
"Sneaking to kill someone, that's a bit too modest." Zhao Tie smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I haven't seen a person who made a dozen devils dizzy, and he didn't dare to come out in the turtle shell." If I had been more prepared, I would have seen a possibility of taking the bunker. β
Shen Chen said modestly: "There are various factors in this, and it is not my ability. The most important thing is that the devil is not familiar with sniper tactics and does not know how to deal with it. β
As he was talking, Wu Qiang and Lao Zhou walked over.
"Lao Zhao, this fellow is going back." Lao Zhou pointed in the direction and said, "If you go straight along this mountain beam, you can bypass the devil's sentry, which is safer." β
"Thank you, fellow." Zhao Tie got up, shook hands with Wu Qiang, and said, "Be careful when you go back." Maybe we'll meet again in the future, and you're welcome to join the guerrillas. β
Wu Qiang and Zhao Tie shook hands, looking a little overwhelmed, not very comfortable with this kind of etiquette.
"You're going aloneβcan you?" Shen Chen turned his head slightly and said with some concern.
"It's okay, I've been drilling in the forest and climbing ravines since I was a child, you can rest assured" Wu Qiang grinned, smiled innocently, and shook the wooden stick in his hand again, "Even if I meet a wolf, I can deal with it a few times." β
Shen Chen nodded, reached out and took out two bills from his pocket. He now has developed a habit that if he has time to kill someone, he will take the sheep and loot it, which he got from a certain dead devil.
He got up and stuffed the money to Wu Qiang, "You take this money and buy some favorite food for your mother, I can't let you work in vain for these two days!" β
Wu Qiang threw his hand, his face flushed and refused to take it, but he couldn't resist Shen Chen and forced it into his pocket.
The farewell was over, Wu Qiang turned around three times, took the dry food given by Lao Zhou, and the money given by Shen Chen, and left reluctantly.
At the time of Chengping, they were all people who kept to themselves, only seeking their own personal interests and the safety and well-being of their families.
But when the aggressor touches their bottom line, their hearts will become dry wood that can be lit with just a fire.
He experienced this time in and out of the mountains, although he still couldn't let go of his mother, but the yearning in his heart was even stronger.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
War is like an earthquake, turning the top up to the bottom and the bottom to the top.
Shen Chen didn't want to judge anything in advance, for him, the guerrilla zone was simply the biggest mystery: it was cold, but there was sunshine; It was depressed, but there was also the enthusiasm of the partisans.
If he could follow his mind, he would really like to live a guerrilla life, at least real and free.
Unlike before, when I saw the arrogant invaders in the Japanese area, and when I saw the traitors who were fighting for the tiger, I felt depressed, so I had to put on a mask and force down the hatred and dissatisfaction in my heart.
The sweep of the devils is not over yet, but according to the usual characteristics, Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou think that the current safety factor is still quite high.
This is because the Japanese army's sweeping operations all have a basic common characteristic, that is, they are well equipped, have strong firepower, and drive straight into the country for a long time.
The weakness is that the troops are insufficient, and they cannot occupy the place, but only look for the main force of the anti-Japanese forces for a decisive battle. It is only a destruction of the villages along the way, and cannot be occupied for a long time.
Such sweeps are often single-lined, easier to deal with, easy to fight, easy to walk, and not much of a threat.
This situation was not changed until Okamura Ninji took office, and it can be said that it was a renovation, such as "catching surprise attacks" and "reversing electric shocks"......
So, before the return of the swept devils, this guerrilla zone is safe, but it is also dilapidated.
Zhao Tie took these people over the mountains and mountains, and finally arrived at a small mountain village called Wangjiayu. Due to its extreme remoteness, the village was not even patronized by the swept devils, so it was not damaged.
Obviously, Zhao Tie and Zhu Zi are no strangers to this village, and they can even be said to be very familiar with it.
Asked the village chief to arrange for others, Zhao Tie took Shen Chen to a courtyard in the north of the village, shouted, and an old lady with gray hair walked out.
"Aunt Wang, I have to trouble you again, this is a new comrade of ours, and we have to live in your house for the next few days." Zhao Tie said politely.
"Okay, I didn't say this, I'm afraid that people will think my house is broken." The old lady looked at Shen Chen with a smile, and stretched out her hand to let the two of them into the north room.
The room is not large, and a kang on the right occupies most of the side, with mats and a self-woven black coarse cloth quilt.
After a long journey, Shen Chen also felt tired, entered the house, leaned the gun against the wall, sat on the kang with his ass, reached out and took off his hat and mask, and unbuckled his belt and cloak.
