"This is not the sound of the earthen gun, the location should be in the direction of Jurong County, and the distance from listening to the gunfire should be less than two miles." Li Qiusheng closed his eyes and listened for a while and said.

"It's not a dirt gun, it's not a devil's 38-style rifle? Less than two miles away? Can you be sure? Fu Zhiyong frowned and confirmed again.

"I'm sure I always went hunting with my father in the mountains before I became a soldier, and I won't be mistaken." Li Qiusheng said with certainty.

"Battalion Commander Fu, what should we do?" Zhang Weidong blinked his eyes and asked Fu Zhiyong.

"You bring someone to stay on guard, and I'll take two people up to see the situation first." Fu Zhiyong thought for a while and said to Zhang Weidong.

If it wasn't Orion who shot in front, it would be a bit of trouble, after all, the Japanese army had just occupied it not long ago, and those who had the leisure to run to this deep mountain and old forest would definitely not be ordinary Japanese soldiers, and they were not using the standard rifles of the Japanese army of the 38 type, nor were they ordinary earthen guns used for hunting, and even the well-informed gendarmerie troops could not tell what kind of gun it was, which was too strange.

"No, I'm going with you too." When Zhang Weidong heard that he was asked to stay, he was immediately unwilling.

"You and I are gone, who will take these people?" Fu Zhiyong glared at Zhang Weidong and said.

"You just let Platoon Commander Liao stay, my people are all from the Central Army, and they will definitely obey the orders of the superior officers, and there will be no chaos." Zhang Weidong said immediately.

"Okay, you explain and we'll leave immediately, Li Qiusheng and Zhao Hu! You two follow me to the front to see what happens. After Fu Zhiyong finished speaking, he stood up and took the lead in running briskly to the front, and Li Qiusheng and Zhao Hu immediately followed.

"Lao Tzu go to the front now to check the situation, you all stay here for me to be careful, everything must be arranged by Platoon Commander Liao when I am not there, do you understand?" Zhang Weidong quickly explained to his subordinates.

"Understood." Zhang Weidong's soldiers immediately agreed in unison.

"Let's go...... Uh, wait for me, grass! As soon as Zhang Weidong saw that there was no problem, he wanted to beckon Fu Zhiyong and them to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he found that Fu Zhiyong and the others had already run away, so he hurriedly scolded in a low voice and chased after them......

"Your Excellency Commander's marksmanship is really good, you can shoot down two birds with one shot, haha......" At this time, a Japanese soldier Nakasamasa ran back from the woods with two turtle doves laughing, and shook it in front of a man wearing a Japanese army lieutenant general's uniform and laughed.

"Huh...... Ikeuchi-kun, you've won the prize, I've been trying to hunt with this German shotgun since I came to China, but unfortunately I've been busy attacking and occupying China's territory, and only by controlling the territory can I really be used by the Japanese Empire, and I've been busy until now that I can come out to hunt as I wish. The lieutenant general said with a smile as he pulled back the empty cartridge casings from his shotgun, with a smug look on his face.

This Japanese lieutenant general is none other than King Asakanomiya, a member of the Japanese imperial family and commander-in-chief of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, who has now succeeded Matsui Ishine, who is recuperating from pneumonia, and is fully responsible for commanding the combat operations of the Japanese Central China Front.

"Huh...... Your Excellency the Commander said yes, we have just occupied Nanjing, and we still need to strengthen the stability of the situation, Your Excellency the Commander is really too tired during this time, and it is time to come out and relax. Ikeuchi handed the two turtledoves to a soldier beside him, and then echoed with a smile.

"Although I have replaced Matsui Ishine to command the Central China Front now, this is only temporary, once Matsui-kun's pneumonia recovers, the command will still be exchanged for him, we are just passers-by." King Xiang Gong waved his hand to ask the guards around him to step back a little, and then he said to Yan Xiong in Ikeuchi.

"That'...... Your Excellency the Commander means......" Ikeuchi Yanxiong knew that he must have something to say to him alone when he saw Asakanomiya's actions, so he also asked tentatively.

"During this time, we must have a big operation, use our military exploits to prove our ability, and let those people in the War Department shut up, so that they don't underestimate the members of the imperial family, thinking that only those reckless men from the Imperial Army University will command the war, hum ......" King Asakanomiya said as he walked forward and continued to look for prey, squinting his eyes and snorting coldly.

"Your Excellency the Commander wants to replace Matsui Ishine to command the Central China Front Army?" Ikeuchi Yanxiong was immediately startled when he heard this, and secretly wondered in his heart that the ambition of this King of the Asahi Palace was not small.

"The Shanghai Dispatch Army is only a temporary formation, once the goal is achieved, it will be disbanded immediately, and the troops under its command will be immediately integrated into the Central China Front, now is a good time to make contributions to the empire, as long as the army is in hand, we can win undefeated." Chaoxiang Gongyu said calmly with a hint of cold light in his eyes.

"Your Excellency, Commander, your subordinates know what to do." Ikeuchi Yanxiong immediately stood up and bowed and said.

"Well, although Chiuchi-kun is only a staff officer of the headquarters now, you are my close subordinate, and I am ready to let you go to the 6th Division of the Central China Front Army as a wing commander." Asaka Gong looked back at Ikeuchi Yan Xiong said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, Commander, my subordinates will do their best to serve the Japanese Empire." Pondai Yanxiong was immediately overjoyed and grateful, and suddenly promoted him from a Zhongzuo staff officer to the captain of the Dazuo Wing, this is not as simple as being promoted to one level, but from a staff officer who has no right to speak to a powerful general in charge of more than 3,000 people, this status gap is not a star and a half.

"Very well, you have to be good...... Ahh Chao Xiang Gong turned around to pat Ikeuchi Yan Xiong's shoulder to encourage him, but at this moment, suddenly a gunshot rang out in the woods, and a bullet grazed Chao Xiang Gong Gong's arm, and the huge bullet penetration took a large piece of the skin and flesh off his arm, and the torn wound still had a slight burnt smell, and the blood flowed out instantly.

"Your Excellency, Commander! There are assassins! Your Excellency the Commander of Protection, come on! ......" Ikeuchi Yanxiong, who was stumbling in the area of the Xiang Palace, took advantage of the situation to throw him to the ground and protected him with his body to prevent the gunman from shooting directly at him again, and then shouted in horror to order the guards in the distance to come and protect him, and at the same time took out the southern fourteenth pistol he carried with him and fired two shots indiscriminately in the direction where the bullets were flying, guiding the guards to the position of the assassin.

"The first and second squads will be left to protect the commander's Excellency and withdraw to the city, and the third squad will catch up with me! Hayouku...... "The squadron leader in charge of accompanying protection immediately shouted orders to his soldiers, and then quickly chased after more than fifty soldiers into the woods.

"Battalion commander, someone has shot again, not far ahead." Li Qiusheng stopped running, and after distinguishing the source of the gunshot, he said quickly.

"Well, it's the gunshots made by Hanyang, everyone speed up." Fu Zhiyong paused and said, and then ran out quickly with a rifle.

"It's going to be fucking big!" Zhang Weidong gasped violently and muttered to himself, 'click' the bullet on the chamber and followed closely......

"Bang bang bang ......bang" A burst of Japanese bullets quickly covered the woods like the location of the assassin's shot, and the trees and turf were scattered in all directions, and a figure immediately jumped out from behind a large tree, and disappeared into the trees in the distance in a flash.

"Where are the assassins! Chase me. As soon as the captain of the Japanese squadron saw that the other party was forced out, he immediately shouted and commanded his soldiers to quickly surround him.

"I'm grass! Actually, a squad of devils is catching a person, this is the rhythm of going to death, what should we do with the battalion commander? Do you want to them? As soon as Fu Zhiyong and the others arrived nearby, they saw a large number of Japanese soldiers shooting, chasing a person dressed as a hunter and running to the depths of the mountains and forests, Zhang Weidong wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked.

"Let's not rush to do it first, from the current point of view, these devils will have to work hard to kill that hunter, and it will not be too late to wait for these devils to chase deeper and then beat him again, when they want to call for reinforcements, it will be too late, Li Qiusheng, you go back now and gather people to this position to arrange firepower and wait for us, and the rest of the people will catch up with me and continue to stare at ......" Fu Zhiyong observed for a while and said to everyone, then stood up and pushed the big tree next to him and ran out.

"Huh...... You're a lot smarter than those devils, and Qiusheng remembers to tell them to use a machine gun to give me these shit days. Zhang Weidong smiled strangely, and after speaking, he also got up and chased after him.

Although Li Qiusheng was a little reluctant to leave, he still turned his head and ran back quickly in the direction he came, after all, there were more than fifty Japanese devils on the other side, and the three of them would never be able to eat them, and if they were entangled and had no backup, it would be a big trouble......

Although there were still four bullets in his gun, he didn't have a chance to stop and aim and shoot back, no matter how he ran in the woods, there were always seven or eight bullets of bark and grass clippings flying around, obviously he had been bitten to death by those Japanese soldiers, if he hadn't run behind the wide and thick trees every time to avoid the bullets, he would have been knocked down by the Japanese army.

The pursuing Japanese soldiers also have a lot of experience in fighting in the mountains and jungles, and they are not slow at all in the woods, and they can use accurate marksmanship to force the opponent back and forth every time they are about to be thrown away, preventing him from leaving his encircled area.

These Japanese soldiers are the soldiers of the 9th Division of the Shanghai Dispatch Army, and the recruiting place of the troops is Kanazawa Prefecture in Japan, and the environment around Kanazawa County is dense with mountains and forests, and these recruited soldiers are also the sturdy mountain people in the Kanazawa area. They will not blindly chase a small group of troops into the depths of this mountain.
