Chapter 38 follows you like a shadow

Section 1 Cunning Chinese

Shimizu Daisa shined a flashlight on the watch on his wrist, and the hands pointed to 2 o'clock in the middle of the night. More than an hour after leaving the Taoist temple, the team was still going around in the dark mountains, and when I asked the little Taoist priest who led the way, he always repeated the sentence: "It's almost there." ”

The compass shows that the procession will be led by this guide, one to the south, one to the west, and the other to the north.

When the seemingly wooden guide led them through the valley overgrown with wild pear trees once more, Shimizu finally understood that they had been tricked! In vain, I wasted time in the mountains and circled in circles for half a day.

After repeatedly comparing the 1/50,000th military map he carried, he still couldn't tell where he was, and Shimizu Daisa realized that he was completely trapped in the mountains, and he ordered that the guide who was teasing him must be executed.

When Mashiko Shigeo brought a few soldiers to arrest the little Taoist priest, he found that this stupid person had long since disappeared!

Shimizu Dazuo said to his subordinates that this is the person of the branch, looking at the honest like a stake at the mercy of others, in fact, he can play you between the palms of his hands unconsciously, and when you find out that you have been fooled, you are already in prison! In the future, we must not have any compassion for the people of China!

As a last resort, I had no choice but to break the radio silence, use the radio to contact the rear, and ask the reconnaissance troops to help with the side position. The location of the special team was roughly calculated by the positioning method, and after comparing it according to the map, it was finally clear that the special team was led by this cunning Taoist priest to deviate from the predetermined direction by nearly 5 kilometers!

According to the map, there are still 9 kilometers in a straight line to reach the town of Kawaguchi, but it is necessary to climb at least 4 mountains, and according to the fastest mountain march speed of the special forces, it will take more than 2 hours to reach the vicinity of the town.

Shimizu Daisa hesitated a little, he expected that with the help of the sleeper agents, he would take advantage of the darkness to quickly destroy the eight-way warehouse in Kawaguchi Town, completely annihilate or defeat the town's garrison, and then under the cover of darkness, quickly leave the battlefield and hide south along the mountain range.

After the attack on the Eighth Road, reinforcements will be mobilized from all directions to rescue Kawaguchi Town, so that the special operations team can go south without hindrance and attack the next target.

However, now Shimizu Daisa has two worries, one is that if his whereabouts are exposed, Kawaguchi Town is on guard, and the sneak attack will turn into a strong attack, will there be unexpected changes in the battle, and delay the main task of the special team. The second is that if you still choose to attack Kawaguchi Town, then you must launch an attack before dawn, and you can't wait until dawn to withdraw from the battlefield, and the time is not very certain.

After thinking for a while, Shimizu Osa still ordered the whole team to pack up and move towards the southeast. His idea was to take a gamble, if the little Taoist priest didn't report it, then launching an attack at the dawn when people were sleeping in the deepest part of their sleep would definitely succeed. If the little Taoist priest has already gone to report, then it is also just a simple destruction of warehouses to train special operations.

For leaving the battlefield, Shimizu Daisa is still full of confidence, although the number of special forces led by himself is small, but the weapons are unique in the entire Imperial Army! Relying on the rudimentary miscellaneous guns, the Eighth Route will definitely not be able to stop the footsteps of the special forces, which has been verified in the battle a few days ago.

With the compass, the devils climbed the mountains and crossed the mountains with difficulty. The deep valleys and cliffs in the hinterland of Langya Mountain can make the devils of the special operations team suffer a lot. Sandslate that is extremely easy to weathering and fracture is everywhere, and if you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff, and the dense jujube trees covered with hooked kudzu needles will hang on to the hem and trouser legs from time to time, and the more you move to break free from the hook, the more kudzu needles will be hung.

Despite the great care and redoubling of the spirit, three soldiers were bruised, and almost all of the soldiers' hands and bare skin were drenched in blood from the arrowroot needles.

When attacking the villages around Yinfang Town, the plainclothes team led the way, and marched along the mountain road at night, where did they suffer this kind of hardship? This generation of ravines and earth cliffs have confused the plainclothes of China, who is known to be familiar with the terrain.

Most of these plainclothes are the children of rich families in the villages occupied by the Eighth Road, and a few of them are selected from the security army, and the larger villages and towns and roads are quite familiar, and they have never been to this inaccessible barren mountain range, and they have turned around with their heads covered like devils!

At half past four in the morning, after contacting the radio of the rear reconnaissance team again, the location was calculated and it was determined that the location of the special team was two kilometers northwest of Kawaguchi Town. Shimizu Daisa put down the map, looked up at the steep mountain beam in front of him, and estimated in his heart that if he climbed over this mountain beam, he should be able to see the lights of Kawaguchi Town.

Finally, I saw the outline of Kawaguchi Town in the telescope! It's not easy! After most of the night in the ravine, it can be regarded as going out to the predetermined direction, but Shimizu Dazuo is not happy at all!

First of all, the whole town was silent, not the slightest light could be seen, and under the black canopy were black houses, lifeless and lifeless.

Secondly, the special team is close to the town from Xiangshang in the northwest, near the avenue from Chuankou Town to Baomaguan, and the west entrance of the town can be seen clearly, not to mention fortifications, rejection of deer or something, there is not even a sentry! I watched it for ten minutes, but I didn't see a single shadow!

Shimizu and Lieutenant Mashiko changed the observation location, and the new location could see the warehouse marked on the brief map provided by the agent, strangely, it was also dark and blind, and the warehouse door was still open, and it seemed that there was no one and nothing inside, and it felt empty, and a morning dog walked out of the warehouse yard slowly, barked twice at the door, and ran away.

Putting down the binoculars, looking up at the sky, and then at the watch, Shimizu Daisa's brows were twisted together. Look at the sky for a maximum of another hour, it will be light, what to do, to attack or not to attack?

Lieutenant Mashiko Shigeo whispered to remind His Excellency Osa, at the joint location mentioned in the intelligence, no one and no information was found. According to the earlier agreement, the agents lurking in the town will wait for the special forces tonight at the big elm tree under the northwest slope, and if no one can come, a pile of white stones will be placed next to the blue stone under the big elm tree, which contains information.

After the special forces saw the person answering or got the information, after deploying the attack, after the attackers were in place, they fired a red signal flare into the sky, and the agents in the town fired three white signal flares, and then the special forces launched a full-scale attack.

Now there are no people, no white stone piles, and the town looks so strange and abnormal. Lieutenant Mashiko Shigeo suggested that instead of attacking rashly, it was better to take advantage of the darkness before dawn and march south as a group.

Qing Shui Dazuo is still a little unwilling, after all, the Captain Yang who made him suffer and lose face is in the town not far from the mountain, last time he was a few hundred meters away but he couldn't compete face to face, is this time so reckless?

"Dazuo! You see! What is that! Mashiko Shigeo pointed to the bottom of the mountain with his hand and nervously lowered his voice to remind Qing Shui.

Hearing this, Shimizu Dazuo hurriedly raised his binoculars, and in the hazy night, he could vaguely see a figure on the official road at the west end of the town, moving very slowly, as if he was still carrying something, and he was still holding something in his hand, walking and stopping.

Handing the binoculars to the lieutenant beside him, Shimizu said, "It's like an early Chinese peasant, you judge." Mashiko Shigeo looked at it and nodded, and he could tell from the binoculars that he was an old man who got up early to pick up dung from livestock.

Suddenly, Shimizu's frowning brows widened, and a smile appeared on his face, telling Lieutenant Mashiko to call the plainclothes team over and go down the mountain with him to meet the old man who was picking up dung.

At first, the lieutenant resolutely disagreed with the supreme commander of the special forces team to personally go to reconnoitre, but Qing Shui's attitude was very clear, as the commander of the special forces, he must understand first-hand information and intelligence, and besides, his Chinese is also the most authentic, with those Chinese in plainclothes to accompany him, the military uniform on his body can also help a lot, and there is no big problem.

Mashiko Shigeo had no choice but to call the plainclothes team over, watching Osa take them down the mountain, the lieutenant ordered all of them to be on standby, hide and ambush the avenue below the mountain, and once there was danger on Osa's side, they could rush over to rescue immediately.

"Fellow! Morning! Ask me about it? The old man who was picking up dung was touching the dung eggs with his head down, and the sound of talking sounded in front of Leng Buding, startled, took two steps back, and looked at the group of people opposite.
