At ten o'clock in the evening, the west of the ditch in the southeast of Songyang Town.

A waning moon in the sky emitted a cold light, standing on the top of the mountain in the west of the ditch, and the entire ditch appeared quietly in front of him.

There are dense mountains and forests on both sides of the ditch, and a small road zigzags forward in the ditch, and the whole ditch is in the shape of high at both ends and low in the middle.

The ditch is only 500 meters long, and although the road extends from east to west, it is not an important official road, just because this road bypasses Songyang Town, and it has become the choice of people who take shortcuts from time to time.

It's just that because the whole Tuanshigou is uninhabited, it is inaccessible, and there are not many people who usually pass by here.

Blacksmith Liu stood on the high place at the mouth of the ditch in the west, looking at the east side of the Tuanshi ditch by the faint moonlight, and what met his eyes was the dark mountain forest, and there was silence around him.

"Lao Zhao, He Lao is about to tie them up, so you and Tianshu are waiting here, and I will take them over to answer." Blacksmith Liu looked back at Zhao Dahai, who was standing behind him, and said in a low voice.

According to the instructions of the superiors, after He Laolian and his entourage escorted those patriotic teachers and students across the Tuanshi Ditch, the task of protecting along the way was taken care of by Liu Blacksmith, in order to complete this task, Liu Blacksmith dispatched a total of twelve people, all of whom were equipped with weapons.

Of course, half of the weapons were provided by Liu Tianshu.

He and Shi Qiang brought back the weapons in the mountains, and when they left Shi Qiang's house, they brought out eight rifles, but except for two rifles left for their own use, the rest were given to Blacksmith Liu.

It was Shi Qiang and Liu Tianshu who left their own rifles, and when they left Shiqiao Village and retreated west, they had to leave them to Liu Blacksmith.

After all, it will be inconvenient to carry a spear on this road.

"Okay, you go to greet He Laolian, and I will stay here to meet you." Zhao Dahai was not polite, but nodded solemnly.

After seeing Blacksmith Liu go down the ditch with four people, the remaining eleven people, under the command of Zhao Dahai, immediately entered the woods on the side of the road to prepare for it.

Although it is only autumn now, in the mountains of northwest Hebei, the night is still a little cool, Liu Tianshu and Shi Qiang squatted under the trees in the forest, quietly looking at the lonely moon in the sky.

After about half an hour, the entire Tuanshigou was still silent.

Suddenly, Shi Qiang's body moved, and then a pair of eyes couldn't stop glancing.

"What's wrong?" Liu Tianshu was surprised and asked in a low voice.

"Brother Tianshu, I don't feel right." Shi Qiang said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Liu Tianshu was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Where are you not moving?" Tell me about it. ”

You must know that Shi Qiang is a child who grew up in the mountains, and if you want to talk about being familiar with the mountains and forests, Liu Tianshu thinks that he is beyond reach.

Moreover, Shi Qiang has an almost magical sensitivity to the dangers in the mountains and forests.

"Brother Tianshu, listen, in the forest of the entire Tuanshigou, for such a long time, I haven't heard a single sound." Shi Qiang said solemnly.

Listening to Shi Qiang's words, Liu Tianshu also found that after his party arrived at the mouth of the ditch in the west, he really didn't hear any birds, not even insects, and the entire ravine seemed to have no life.

Thinking of this, Liu Tianshu was shocked, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean......?"

"There's someone in the woods over there." Shi Qiang stared at the dense forest in the distance, and said word by word in a low voice.

Liu Tianshu only felt a numb scalp at this time, since Shi Qiang said it so surely, it couldn't be wrong.

There were people lying in ambush in the woods by the ditch, and there were quite a few of them.

Otherwise, the ravine would not be so silent.

Who will be ambushing here, what they want to do, you don't have to think about it.

Liu Tianshu thought of this, and immediately went to Zhao Dahai's side.

"Uncle Zhao, the situation is not good, there seems to be an ambush in the ditch, in this way, you take them here to prepare for battle, and I will go over with Qiangzi to take a look." Liu Tianshu said in a low voice.

"Someone in ambush? Who will it be? When Zhao Dahai heard this, he immediately knew that the situation was serious, and looked at Liu Tianshu and said.

"It's not clear who it is, but the whole ravine is indeed abnormally quiet, if the little devils get the information in advance and ambush here in advance, Uncle Liu and them will be too dangerous." Liu Tianshu said with a solemn expression.

At this moment, Liu Tianshu had already seen a bright light appear at the east end of the ditch, and it seemed that He Lao had tied them to the east end of the ditch.

"Okay, you and Hadron must be careful."

Zhao Dahai nodded, and then called the people around him to get ready for battle.

Liu Tianshu turned back to Shi Qiang's side and whispered, "Qiangzi, follow me." The two men carried their spears and quickly reached into the ditch from the woods.

Shi Qiang walked through the mountains and forests, as if he was in his own yard, Liu Tianshu followed behind him, constantly looking at the surrounding terrain, thinking about where he would choose the location of the ambush if he led people to ambush.

After walking through the woods for 300 meters, the two gradually approached the bottom of the ditch in the Tuanshi ditch.

At the bottom of the ditch of Tuanshigou, there is a flat section about 50 meters long, and there is a huge stone on the side of the road, like a huge drum, and it is said that the name of Tuanshigou is derived from this stone.

On one side of the stone drum is a very small stream.

When Liu Tianshu and Shi Qiang were about to arrive at the stone drum, Shi Qiang suddenly stopped.

Liu Tianshu stepped forward cautiously and found that in the forest below the front, something reflected a cold light. He took a closer look, and there were countless devils squatting in the forest in front of him, and the cold light was reflected by the steel helmet on the devil's head and the bayonet of the 38 big cover.

Sure enough, it's the devil who is ambushing here.

Liu Tianshu broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

"Hadron is a little devil." Liu Tianshu whispered something in Shi Qiang's ear, and then slowly raised the rifle in his hand and aimed at the head of a ghost soldier dozens of meters away.

Seeing this, Shi Qiang also slowly raised his gun.

"Hadron, you get to that position and wait for me to shoot before you fire. Remember, run quickly backwards after firing two shots, and be careful not to run in a straight line. Liu Tianshu pointed to a tree on the right and asked Shi Qiang to get to that position.

The little devil's reaction is extremely fast, and if the hadron can't move his position in time, I'm afraid he will be bitten by the little devil's firepower.

Qiangzi was about to pass over with a gun, but Liu Tianshu grabbed him and said in a low voice: "After the rifle bullet hits, remember to throw the gun away, and you can't run fast in the forest with it." ”

The pistol he confiscated from Cao Jiacai was given to Shi Qiang, and Liu Tianshu was worried that Shi Qiang would be reluctant to throw away the rifle, so he hurriedly advised.

You know, the rifle in the hand of the strong man is made in Hanyang, loaded with five rounds, and must be reloaded after running out of bullets, if there is nothing in normal times, this time it is a little devil, if you can't retreat in time after firing, and wait for the little devil to react, then it will be troublesome.

Therefore, Liu Tianshu deliberately emphasized Shi Qiang, and after firing five bullets, he immediately threw away the gun and used the pistol to fight with the little devil in the forest.

"Brother Tianshu, I remember, don't worry, I'll be careful." Shi Qiang nodded, and quickly touched the position pointed by Liu Tianshu with his gun.

At this time, countless bright lights began to move from the east end of the ditch to the bottom of the ditch, and the voice of blacksmith Liu was faintly heard.
