Chapter 162: A Glimmer of Heaven
In the dark, Liu Tianshu took Liao Botao, Chen Tianhua, Dong Sen and Shen Zhengming to quietly leave the forest, bypassed the cottage that had become a pot of porridge from the southeast, and followed the avenue to the first line of heaven.
However, as soon as a few people walked for a while, they heard a sound of footsteps under the hillside in front of them, and Liu Tianshu immediately made a gesture to the four people to enter the forest, and the five quickly entered the woods on the side of the avenue.
As soon as Liu Tianshu and the others hid in the woods, they saw a firelight in front of them, and then more than a dozen bandits rushed along the avenue with torches.
Seeing that these bandits were only in a hurry and had no defense at all, Liu Tianshu couldn't help but regret that he didn't bring the light machine gun.
When he broke up with Kwong Guosheng and others, Liu Tianshu was worried that Kwong Guosheng and them would be attacked by bandits, so he left the light machine gun to him.
After all, they were responsible for protecting dozens of rescued villagers, and the light machine gun could increase their defensive firepower.
"Attention, listen to my orders!" Liu Tianshu pulled out his pistol and stared at the approaching bandits.
Fighting at close quarters, and by surprise, the effectiveness of short guns is naturally more flexible than that of long guns, especially in the mountains and forests.
When the more than ten bandits walked to thirty meters with torches, Liu Tianshu suddenly shouted and hit, and the shell gun in his hand immediately swept towards the bandits in front of him in a burst of fire, and in a blink of an eye, the bullets in a magazine were exhausted, and the eight bandits were knocked to the ground by the sudden attack, plus the rapid shooting of the other four team members, Peng Tianba's cronies fell fourteen people in a blink of an eye.
Fortunately, Peng Tianba did not walk in front this time, but walked in the middle of the group, and when he heard the gunshot, he immediately threw himself to the side of the road, and he was able to dodge the two bullets that were fired at him.
However, when he came to his senses, there were only five brothers around him who were hiding on the side of the road in a panic like him.
Liu Tianshu saw that the remaining bandits had thrown away their torches at this time, hid on the side of the road, hurriedly said to retreat, and quickly left from the woods on the side of the avenue with the four of them.
Peng Tianba heard that there were no more bullets flying out of the woods, so he ordered a brother to come forward to look, and the bandit raised his pistol and fired several shots into the woods, and after making sure that there was no return fire in the woods, he said in a trembling voice: "Second master, they have left." ”
Peng Tianba was still not at ease, so he squatted on the side of the road and listened carefully for a while, and found that there was no other sound in the mountains and forests except for the sound of the wind, so he stood up carefully.
This examination made him want to cry without tears.
Unexpectedly, the other party's sudden attack actually caused his brother to fall fourteen people, of which eleven were already dead, and the remaining three, two were seriously injured, and the other only injured his arm.
Peng Tianba looked at the woods hatefully and cursed, and then saw that the sky in the direction of the cottage had been red by the firelight, and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Brothers, go, go back to the cottage." ”
The five brothers hurriedly picked up the injured brother and followed Peng Tianba towards the cottage.
As for the brothers who have died, they naturally can't take care of them anymore.
After Liu Tianshu and the five of them made a sudden attack, they immediately withdrew from the battle and ran towards the front line of the sky.
When he was in the cottage just now, Liu Tianshu found a lot of pistol bullets from Sun Jihu's lair, plus the seized ammunition, the bullets on the five people were very sufficient.
After running for a while, I saw two low mountains appear in front of me, and in the middle of the mountains was a thin slit.
Needless to say, this is the legendary silver lining.
Liu Tianshu and the five of them cautiously approached the first line of heaven, and saw that at the mountain pass here, two fires were lit, and next to them were two fortifications made of stones, and there seemed to be a figure flickering on the mountain.
Tang Erhu, the fourth leader stationed on the front line, was worried about being attacked by the Eighth Route Army at night, so he asked people to insert the lit torch on the top of the mountain to illuminate the gap between the two mountains.
The reason why the terrain is dangerous is that the gap between the mountains is the only way to the cottage, and the southern end of the mountain is a straight cliff, which cannot be climbed at all, but the northern end is a gentle slope.
As long as the bandits hold the mountains on both sides, the people outside want to attack it, but it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.
On the avenue leading to the cottage behind the sky just now, fierce gunshots rang out, which shocked Tang Erhu's heart.
He immediately thought of Peng Tianba, the second master who had just returned to the cottage with people for reinforcements, and deduced from the location where the gunshots rang out that it should be Peng Er's family in trouble.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the bandits guarding the bottom of the sky to be vigilant in case someone attacked from behind.
Liu Tianshu and the others arrived on the opposite side of the first-line sky, and when they saw the bandits of the first-line sky, they immediately stopped.
After observing there for a while, Liu Tianshu found that the gunfire under the mountain was getting more and more intense, and he was anxious, and said to the four people: "Botao, you stay here to be responsible for fire support, and we will go over from that position." ”
The location he said was the mountain ridge leading to the right side of the first line of heaven, this mountain ridge had many pine trees, although the mountain range was not large, but it was more suitable for attack than the bare road under the mountain range.
However, this mountain ridge is undulating, and if you want to attack the right mountain, you must pass through the saddle about 50 meters long in front of you.
When Liao Botao heard this, he immediately found a sniper position in the woods, and at the same time put the bridge clip on his body in front of him.
The 38 big cover can be fed with five bridge clips, and Liao Botao brought ten such bridge clips with him when he set off, two of which were used in the battle just now, and now there are eight more for a total of 40 rounds.
After seeing Liao Botao ready, Liu Tianshu said to Chen Tianhua, Dong Sen and Shen Zhengming Let's go, and the four of them began to advance towards the first line of heaven under the cover of the mountains and forests.
After walking for about twenty meters, we reached the lowest point of the mountain, and in front of it were bare rocks.
Seeing that there was a fortification on the opposite side, and there were several bandits in it who were watching this side, Liu Tianshu took off a grenade, removed the safety, knocked it on the tree next to it, and then threw it forward with all his might.
The distance of thirty meters was just a piece of cake for Liu Tianshu, the grenade flew forward in the night sky, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the sky above the fortifications, and then quickly fell.
The bandits guarding the fortifications heard that something had landed, and when they looked back in confusion, they saw a smoke-emitting iron guy spinning around the fortifications, and they were immediately shocked.
The well-informed bandit's face changed, he shouted a grenade, and immediately flew to the outside of the fortifications.
Before the other bandits could react, the grenade exploded with a bang, and the flying fragments immediately cut into the flesh of these bandits, and a scream sounded in the fortifications.
Tang Erhu, who was guarding the top of the mountain, heard an explosion in the fortifications behind him, and hurriedly looked back, and saw that the fortifications on the right were blown up in a mess, and a bandit outside the fortifications was getting up from the smoke of gunpowder in embarrassment.
"Quick, someone's sneaking up." Tang Erhu immediately shouted at the people around him.
Seven or eight bandits, led by a small leader, ran down the hill with guns in their hands, ready to reinforce the attacked bandits.
It's a pity that at this time, when the grenade exploded, Liu Tianshu and the four of them had already rushed out of the woods, and under the cover of the rocks, they rushed through the 30-meter rocky mountain at an extremely fast speed.
Just as the bandit got up from the ground and was about to return to the fortifications, Liu Tianshu and the others had already rushed to a place less than ten meters away from the fortifications.
As the gun in Liu Tianshu's hand rang out, the bandit's forehead was punched with a bloody hole, his body stiffened, and then he fell to the ground.
When the bandits who rushed down from the hill to reinforce ran to the bombed-out fortification less than ten meters, Liu Tianshu and several people had already run to the side of the fortification.
Seeing seven or eight bandits rushing down, Liu Tianshu and a few people lay on the side of the fortifications, shooting at the bandits continuously, those bandits just rushed forward at this time, not knowing how to dodge the bullets, and in a blink of an eye, the three bandits in front were knocked down, and the remaining bandits hurriedly turned around and ran back.
After discovering that the bandits had retreated, Liu Tianshu and the others immediately turned over and entered the fortifications, threw the bandits who were killed and those who were not killed out of the fortifications, and then took the spear and began to shoot at the bandits in front.
Tang Erhu saw that a fortification at the bottom of the first line of heaven was occupied, and his scalp suddenly became numb, you must know that the fifty or so bandits under his command were originally to prevent the Eighth Route Army from attacking the first line of heaven, but now the back road was cut off, and seven or eight of his brothers died.
Liao Botao stood guard in the woods behind, and after killing the four bandits who rushed down with his gun by the light of the fire on the mountain, he began to advance along the woods with his gun.
Liu Tianshu and the others guarded the fortifications, and kept shooting at the more than 20 bandits who rushed down, although these bandits were numerous, but they didn't understand how to shoot and how to expose their bodies as little as possible, and they only knew that they attacked them with a fierce spirit.
It's a pity that although Liu Tianshu and the four of them only have four rifles, their marksmanship is not blown, and in just ten minutes, the bandits who Tang Erhu was guarding on the right side fell again.
Especially Liu Tianshu, who basically killed one with one shot, and made the remaining eleven bandits, no matter how Tang Erhu scolded him, he never dared to show his head again.
As for the bandits guarding the left, if they want to cooperate with Tang Erhu's counterattack, they must cross the road, which is an open area of nearly thirty meters, and if the bandits rush there, they will not become a live target without shelter.
Seeing that the bandits on the right didn't dare to show their heads, Liu Tianshu let the team members rest for a while, and then called a few people and said: "Comrades, if you want to completely occupy the first line of heaven, you must eliminate the bandits in front, in this way, Chen Tianhua, give me your grenade, wait for the four of you to stay here, Bo Tao is responsible for covering, once a bandit shows his head, shoot me." ”
"Captain, what about you?" Liao Botao asked with concern.
"I'll throw a grenade first, and then use the grenade to raise smoke under the cover of the frenzy, rush through the front 20 meters, and then go into the forest to eliminate these bandits. Tianhua and Zhengming waited for me to enter the forest, and immediately came to pick me up, and then Liao Botao was responsible for blocking the reinforcements of the bandits on the left mountain. Liu Tianshu thought for a while and said. (To be continued.) )
