Chapter 463: Strange Village
After retreating to the entrance of the cave, Lin Yiqing unexpectedly found that two tree trunks were erected at the entrance of the cave, and he bent down to see that it was a ladder.
It seems that this is a garrison for government troops, and there may be some ammunition supply or something in the cave. If you come prepared, just touch it in and get rid of it. But he was worried that there would be enemies chasing him out of the cave, so he quickly descended two ladders and stood guard at the entrance of the cave.
Time passed quickly, and as the clouds cleared, the light got better and better, and you could see far away. Lin Yiqing was on guard at the entrance of the cave for a while, but there was no movement, so he hurriedly got down the ladder and went to the ground below.
He kept an eye on the path, and the grass in the middle of the road proved not only that it was a long-abandoned village, but also that government forces were not active on the route. He walked past a few corpses, he leaned down to take a closer look, and saw that they were all dressed as enemy soldiers, and his own people were fine, so he was relieved.
Now the fog and the low, heavy clouds in the sky had long since dispersed, and the chirping of insects sounded like an ensemble of light music. Under the canopy, in the silence of the woods, this ensemble is soothing and gentle. The sound of this heavenly sound filled the ears, and people unconsciously felt a kind of intoxication, as if they had forgotten that they had come here to kill.
When I looked up, I suddenly saw a figure on the cliff on the right, squatting forward. He quickly switched to a sniper rifle in his hand, but fortunately, he saw clearly that it was Shiori Mochizuki. Shiori Mochizuki jumped off a rock on the top of the cliff, hid in a wood, and disappeared.
He saw a boulder sticking out diagonally not far to the right, and he could easily climb to it, so he went up from here. Soon we reached the cliff on the right. The view here is very open. You can see far away. Walk through the village basin. Seeing the vague outline of the mountain on the opposite side, judging from the space, there should be two exits. After taking cover, he began to take a closer look through his sniper scope.
Sweeping from a distance during the first lap, he saw the barrel of a gun, sticking out from a tree on the opposite cliff, very close, about two hundred meters, motionless. Lin Yiqing took a closer look. It's their own people, all lying on a slope.
He continued to grope along the foot of the hill to his own people. In front of him, Mochizuki Shizhi was gone, and he hid behind a bush to further focus on the position of the barrel next to the tree. The line of sight and angle here are very good, and with the naked eye, he can clearly see the outline of a figure standing on the cliff over there. The tree next to him couldn't block him from this perspective.
After switching to a sniper rifle, he scrutinized the sentry for a moment, then slowly scanned it and suddenly saw two men approaching the enemy standing on the rock. Those two were supposed to be members of the Odd Soldiers. I don't know how they killed silently. He followed them with his scope and watched how they moved.
He was a little worried. It seems that these two members of the Odd Soldier are more anxious, and after they find out about the enemy, they want to solve it as soon as possible. Perhaps they have discovered the enemy situation for a long time and feel that it is an obstacle, but they cannot get through, and it is necessary to dispel it.
Lin Yiqing looked at the two team members, carrying guns on their backs, holding daggers, and tiptoeing. "Don't panic, brother!" He muttered silently in his heart, cheering them up.
The two odd soldiers felt like thieves as they touched the edge of the woods on the rocks, and they were extremely careful with every step, and they were already behind the enemy, and beyond that, they were on the rocks, only two or three meters away from the enemy. Lin Yiqing looked at them through the sniper scope for a while, and looked at the enemy soldier for a while.
The two odd soldiers suddenly stopped, Lin Yiqing was startled in his heart, and hurriedly looked over, only to see the enemy sentry bending over and turning around, looking down. Thankfully, he didn't see the danger coming from behind him. Suddenly, he staggered two steps forward and fell headlong.
When Lin Yiqing looked down at the sniper scope in his hand, he was blocked by a stone and found nothing. He guessed that someone from the detachment of the odd soldiers had touched it, shot it from below, and killed it. He hurried down the cliff, got to the bottom, and joined everyone in one place. When I asked, I found out that the people who touched it were Junichi Takagi and Takeshi Nogami, and Lin Yiqing asked everyone to follow him to the left and follow the people in front. In the current situation, the entrance of the outer village has basically been swept away, just waiting to sneak into the village.
Lin Yiqing didn't walk long along the cliff on the left, when a slight coughing sound suddenly came from the front, and it was obvious that another enemy had been shot. Everyone dispersed in echelons and soon approached Junichi Takagi and Takeshi Nogami. I saw the two of them lying behind a large rock, where they observed the situation in the village fifty meters away in front of them. From this side, the silhouettes of several houses in the village are very close together, and next to them it seems to be a grass hut, which should be full of branches, dead grass, etc.
"How?" Lin Yiqing said softly to Junichi Takagi.
"Just solved a mobile post, it seems that the enemy is very alert, there is an ambush here, the number is not clear, but it is estimated that there will not be many, if you want to pass through here, I am afraid that you have to touch in and kill them, do you want to observe again?" Junichi Takagi asked.
Lin Yiqing took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and shook his head: "It's been a lot of time, everyone is still waiting for news above, and I'm afraid it's too late to observe it." I'll touch it in first, everyone pay attention, Shiori, Kaori, and Jun, the three of you follow me, and the others are on standby. With that, he took the two Mochizuki sisters and another ninja, Kazutoshi Inoue, and slowly crawled through a grassy area, then stood up, bent his waist, and carefully crossed an abandoned rice field.
Further on, there is the grass hut, and I don't know if there are infantry in or behind it. After inspecting the terrain, Lin Yiqing pointed to the left and right, and the three of them spread out and approached the grass shed carefully.
If the enemy has more than one squadron of troops stationed here, then the situation is dangerous. Now I can only take one step at a time, and then touch it first.
Lin Yiqing walked in the middle, and behind him on his right-hand side was Kazujun Yamaoka. When he walked about five meters away from the grass hut with a whispering rifle on his waist, he suddenly heard a noise in the grass, and someone got up, yawned, and shouted Yue. Lin Yiqing was startled and was about to hold the fire. Kazutoshi Yamaoka next to him replied. At the same time, the gun in his hand "coughed" twice.
This Kazutoshi Yamaoka moves quickly. After hearing the enemy's questioning just now, Xun Sheng happened to see a gun stretched out from the mouth of a haystack, and he quickly replied, and immediately shot at the head and chest of the figure at close range. Lin Yiqing only saw a gun sticking out of the haystack, the muzzle of the gun was pestled down on the ground, and a person was lying on the haystack, head down, and after struggling twice, he didn't move. Take advantage of this. He quickly approached the haystack with the Mochizuki sisters, half-crouching underneath.
Judging from the current situation, the enemy did not actually detect any danger, and the guard was very loose, and there was no special reinforcement of the guard. All three of them hid in front of the haystack, turned their backs to the haystack, and listened to the movement around them.
Lin Yiqing leaned sideways against the grass, looked through the sparse long grass, and found several figures, guarded. Silently came towards them. Shiori Mochizuki saw a large rock in front of her and quickly climbed over. Then he half-crouched up, leaned sideways against the boulder, and aimed at the few people who came.
After about a minute, the figure was getting closer and closer, there were three people in total, Lin Yiqing's eyes were sharp, and when he looked at it again, it was not good, and there were three people, on the side of the grass hut, who were also coming here. They must have noticed that there was movement here, and came to check on the support.
The six men were clearly well trained, and they split into two groups, one in front of the other and one in the other, moving towards this side. The combat quality of the government army has really improved a lot now.
The grass shed next to Lin Yiqing is very large, in addition to the pile of dead grass, there are also some branches, which are very numerous, and they may be firewood for the enemy to cook. At this time, the surroundings were so quiet that there was not even a little wind. Behind him, Kazutoshi Yamaoka had already climbed to the bald ridge where Shiori Mochizuki was, and expanded the warning area with Shiori Mochizuki. Shiori Mochizuki was three meters away from him, and several people who came against him.
Everyone waited quietly for the movement, this was a moment of silence before the fight, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
The figure in front of him was getting closer and closer, and Lin Yiqing took advantage of the dim light under the eaves of the grass shed to hide his body well next to the grass pile. At this time, the enemy in front of him was already about ten meters away from him and Shiori Mochizuki, and the enemy in the second battle group was still farther away, maybe twenty meters away.
The village was empty all around, with nothing but weeds and bushes. The village must have been deserted for some time due to the war, as you can tell from the rice paddies you just passed. There were already long weeds growing there. The residents of the village should have taken refuge in the mountains.
Crash!
A sudden sound broke all the silence. Especially Lin Yiqing was really taken aback! It seems that someone was groping around in the grass hut next to him and accidentally got it. The sound was behind Lin Yiqing, and it only rang for a while, and he wanted to hear something more and distinguish it, but there was no sound at all.
Could it be that there is another person in the haystack, who was not exposed just now?
With such a flash thought, Lin Yiqing's heart suddenly rose. You can't stay here and become a live target for someone else's sneak attack, you have to leave quickly. However, it was not so easy to leave quickly, and he could only slowly step back step by step. Before he could take three steps back, one of the few people who came in front of him just now stepped on a branch and made a little noise, and at this moment, all the figures of the people who came squatted down and hidden, obviously listening to the movement.
Lin Yiqing, Sister Mochizuki and Yamaoka and Jun behind them are all lying still, and now it is time to see who can calm down.
After a while, the other party slowly straightened up from the grass and came over with a cat. Shiori Mochizuki recognized him and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's my own people, hey, come here!" ”
Those people were also nervous, and when they heard Shiori Mochizuki's words, they breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran over. One asked, "How are you doing?" I'm ......" Lin Yiqing hurriedly shushed, told everyone to squat down, and whispered, "There are still people behind." ”
"It's our own people, our captain asked us to come over and help, we killed a few guys under the cliff over there just now, it seems that there should be a lot of people in the village. Time is running out, let's get inside. The person said.
Lin Yiqing was about to answer, when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind the grass shed, and soon there was a scuffling sound not far from running over, and then someone screamed in a sullen manner.
"Who's hurt? It seems to be our people. Hurry up, everybody! The visitor said in surprise.
"Don't make a sound, wait!" Lin Yiqing stopped them.
They are obviously the freshmen of the new team members, and due to the fierce battle, the odd team directly commanded by Lin Yiqing also suffered great losses. The attrition amounted to more than two-fifths. It is to add some people with new ones. Because of the tight schedule, these later players have not undergone sufficient training, and their combat performance is obviously not as good as that of the old players, but Lin Yiqing knows that there is no way to do it.
Everyone waited nervously for a few seconds, and the scuffle was gone, but the door opened in the small village behind. It seems that their fight alarmed the enemy.
"Quick! Follow me! Lin Yiqing led a few people to quickly bypass the grass shed and go to the right. Under the sun through the clouds. Lin Yiqing led everyone to carry guns, ran across the path in a few steps, and when they arrived at the bulging bald ridge, they all lay on their stomachs and set up shooting postures. This is a commanding height, the view is excellent, the village is less than 30 meters in front, a total of six families, lined up.
At this moment, several figures diagonally opposite were rapidly approaching there.
"Lord, come here." Shiori Mochizuki shouted softly not far away.
Lin Yiqing quickly crawled over. Q: "How?" What do you see? ”
The new Odd Soldier squad leader also climbed over.
"Why is the second team here too? Who are those in front? ”
"It should also be the second team of the Odd Soldiers."
"It's too risky for them to do bad things like this. Do you see it. From my point of view, there are two sentry posts in front of the third house, and we should take a detour and feel our way into the house from behind. I came from behind them, and there was no sentry behind them. ”
"So the enemy should all sleep in the third house. But someone opened the door just now, what's going on? ”
"No one has ever appeared in front, it should be the back door, probably peeing."
"You came back here from behind them? Have you observed the exit? ”
"I've seen it all, it's safe. I've marked the way I came, so I don't have to be afraid of mines. ”
"Good! We went from behind and killed all the people in the village before we came back safely. ”
"But the second team will touch it, and it will alarm the enemy."
"You lead the way, follow the path you just did. You stay here. ”
Lin Yiqing left three strange soldiers to ambush on the ridge, and quickly went to the back of the village with the rest of the people.
Although it was less than 30 meters, it took everyone about a minute.
There were no lights or voices in the village, and there was a dead silence. Behind the house where the enemy soldiers were staying was a large vegetable patch, and it seemed that they were really ready to stay there and use the land. It's not easy to walk in the vegetable patch, and it's easy to make noises, so now everyone is lying on the grass at the edge of the vegetable patch, observing the movement. After approaching the first house, everyone did not go in to check, but went directly to the back of the third house, across the vegetable patch, and hid for the time being.
Since it is a vegetable patch, there should be no mines buried in it.
The enemy had just gotten up and opened the door, and everyone searched around very carefully, but found no trace. Lin Yiqing made a few gestures, and everyone saw it.
Shiori Mochizuki stayed, and the other two followed Lin Yiqing along the isolation ditch dug between the vegetable furrows and approached the door at the back of the house. Lin Yiqing bent on the waist in front of him, stabbed the ground with a combat knife, and carried out mine detection. The two people behind him, with guns, followed him, tiptoed out, moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the back door. The house is actually very dilapidated, and the so-called back door is nailed up with a few wooden boards, and it looks like there is a big gap, and there should be no latch.
Lin Yiqing motioned for Shiori Mochizuki and Kazutoshi Yamaoka to be on guard on both sides, holding the gun in his right hand, his left hand gently reaching through the crack in the door, and his index finger went up along the edge of the door, touching the tripwire.
He can't be next to the wall, there is a handful of grass hanging on it, it will make a noise when it touches the grass, and this enemy army is really cunning enough. He gently untied the stumbling rope and was about to push the door in, when suddenly a thought flashed in his heart.
Under his "teaching", the Satsuma army is accustomed to using tripping thunderbolts, will the enemy also come and hang on the door in order to prevent a sneak attack? That's not exact. Just now when he was crossing the vegetable patch, he spotted two press-haired mines and one trip-haired mine.
Touching it again, it was so dangerous, and I touched a thin wire. At this time, Shiori Mochizuki wanted to pick up the handful of grass on the wall with the muzzle of the gun, so that it would not get in the way. Lin Yiqing hurriedly turned around and withdrew her hand, stopped her, and asked her to come over and gently pinch the grass with her hand.
Shiori Mochizuki pinched and pressed the two hard erections, and with a good idea, she stretched out two fingers. Lin Yiqing took out the combat knife, cut the thin wire in the crack of the door, and then touched it up, and cut another one.
Looking at Shiori Mochizuki's movements, Lin Yiqing somehow had a strange thought.
So far, there hasn't been any movement in the house.
Over here...... Could it be a trap laid by the enemy for these people?
At that moment, it seemed that a gunshot rang out somewhere. But when he listened carefully, he heard nothing.
Although there are such worries, at this time, several people around Lin Yiqing are all subordinates trained by him to be ten, and he is very calm in his heart.
If he heard him correctly, the gunfire must have come from his right hand. It should be the direction of the destination, this is by no means an illusion that arises when he is afraid, he believes that these people around him have nothing to be afraid of.
At this moment, he was followed by his most trusted subordinates, and all he was thinking about was how to destroy the enemy, and he believed that he had indeed heard the gunshots, and it would not be a hallucination. (To be continued......)
