"One more thing," said the interpreter, "the sacrificial artifacts need to be kept so that our wizards can study their spells. ”
"This is a war, a cannonball goes down, how can I guarantee it?"
The translator went back to resume his life, and it was expected that he would come back to entangle, so Chu Tingchang decided to start fighting first, so as not to have a lot of branches to interfere with the command. He himself relied on a set of superstitions to fool others, and today he encountered the entanglement and command of real superstition, which can be regarded as retribution.
The Kachin armed forces had little firepower and could only serve as a second echelon, but there were still some warriors who volunteered to join the first echelon, carrying poisoned bows and arrows that could be used as sneak attack weapons.
Chu's men and horses secretly approached the enemy. There was no ambush outside the camp at all, and there were few sentinels, and even if there were a few sentry posts, attention was focused on the ritual of inviting the gods inside.
At this time, the chief archmage of the dancing god was wearing his hair and dancing barefoot around the bonfire. The sacrificial ritual has entered the fourth stage - the slaughter of animals; It will soon be possible to get the location of the enemy, and by the fifth stage - divination, you can get the specific distance and number of people and the dark power behind it, which is essentially a kind of battlefield comprehensive intelligence system, and these wizards actually know some common sense of war more or less.
Jossen took the wine glass and watched with fascination as the poor sheep was slaughtered. Normally, the Burmese people use chickens for divination, and the highest level uses cows, and the great wizard thinks that Chu Tingchang is just a little bit able to call the wind and rain, and he is not a powerful role, so it is enough to use sheep.
The sheep struggled twice, and the archwizard crouched down to check the blood stains, and suddenly shivered.
"Wizard? What do the gods say? Qiao Sen hurriedly asked.
"The gods say, behind the fog, isn't there a demon that should exist in the world? But...... It is a heavenly punishment, and I see that in the near future, its flames will burn the forests and mountains. ”
"What the hell is it, tell me quickly?"
With a pop, a soldier fell on the wall, and there was an arrow clearly stuck in his body, which was coated with king cobra venom, which can paralyze people instantly, but the death was not so fast, the soldier actually fell to his death.
The crowd exploded at once. They all took their guns and prepared to fight back. These units were untrained, and when an enemy situation broke out, they reacted completely instinctively and did not listen to orders at all. Qiao Sen wanted to give orders, but no one listened to the chaos in front of him.
A whistle sounded from the tip of the head, and a shot* fell into the crowd. The second* hit the wall, exploding and creating a gap. The Burmese were brave and did not run away, trying to rush out of the decisive battle, and several machine guns fired at the rushing crowd, and for a time the corpses filled the gap. Seeing that the battle was starting in front, the Kachin men and horses of the second echelon couldn't hold back, and they all wanted to hurry into the battle to pick up guns, so they also rushed up, they took scimitars, pikes and bows and arrows, and they did not suffer too much at night against the Burmese army using Enfield rifles.
Chu Tingchang hated this group of people for being untimely and undisciplined, and he hoped that the Kachin people would join the pursuit during the enemy's retreat, instead of rushing over now, increasing casualties and blocking the range of machine gun fire, but since their hatred was so deep, they were allowed to fight like this, and of course he had no doubt about victory.
At dawn, the battle ended. The Burmese army was about 800 people, more than 20 Japanese troops were all annihilated, and there were hundreds of Kachin tactical sacrifices. The dependence on logistics is too great.
Although a batch of guns and ammunition was seized, they were not used and were given to Apo. These weapons are all old guns of the First World War, which the British used to arm the Mon, were captured by the Japanese, and then given to the Burmese, and now they are being taken by the Kachin. At the same time, the Japanese army also captured the food and ammunition that had been hoarded here.
The chief wizard hid under the bamboo building and was captured alive by the Kachin warriors, which was considered to have fulfilled their wish, but Qiao Sen ran fast and could not find it. In fact, no one here knows what Commander Qiao Sen looks like, maybe he is in the pile of corpses, who cares about him. The people here think that killing the opposing wizard is the most important thing, they are the key to determining the victory or defeat, and it doesn't matter if the leader or the commander or anything.
Chief Chu received a telegram from Xu Chong, and the Yimu detachment was still following him, and it seemed that it was time to clean up this wrongdoer. He wanted to go north immediately, but the Kachin people still had a ritual to kill sorcerers and worship their ancestors, so he had to stop and wait. It was not until noon that the ceremony was over, when people were seen hanging their heads in the village.
Tianjin Japanese Concession
Lin Xiuxuan and Lu Qingshan walked around Fukushima Street to Azuma Street, which is full of harmonious winds, with all kinds of brothels, casinos and tobacco houses on both sides, and they don't need to be issued by the puppet government to take pictures, and all kinds of weathered places are everywhere. Many unscrupulous Chinese businessmen have invested in tobacco shops here under the name of the Japanese.
The drone tracked the car and found itself at a restaurant on Songdo Street. Lin Xiuxuan then remembered that it should be the hotel opened by Kawashima: Dongxing Building, which is where Tianjin intelligence dealers gather. He didn't have time to go today, but he had to go to that place.
As the celebration of the Japanese parade drew to a close, they arrived near the Japanese headquarters at Haiguang Temple, and found that it was indeed heavily guarded, and there were more sentry posts than they had observed yesterday from the fourth floor of the hotel. At this moment, people had already entered the headquarters one after another, and they observed from a distance and found that they were indeed holding red invitations. They walked around the headquarters, and although they were heavily guarded, they were not invulnerable. There are a total of 6 bunkers on the periphery, which is consistent with aerial reconnaissance, but they are all facing the direction outside the concession. There is not it to the Japanese street side. Originally, there may have been a ravine on the periphery, perhaps in order to whitewash the peace, it has also been filled in, and the barbed wire and the like have also been removed. The Japanese raised the wall, and although the guards on the wall echoed each other, at night, there would be some dead ends. There are wolfhounds and patrols within the walls, but drones can provide intelligence support.
Of course, the best way to get over the wall is to get an invitation, but the reconnaissance must not be slackened, in case of an accident after entering the city and you need to escape, you must also be familiar with the terrain here to determine the retreat route.
How do I get an invitation?
They sat at a nearby café waiting for their chance. I have seen several people who enter with invitations coming from nearby cafes, and it is clear that the "celebrities" invited by the Japanese have a penchant for going to cafes.
The two ordered coffee and snacks, Lin Xiuxuan bowed his head and was silent, eavesdropping on every table nearby, he stuffed a bugging device in his ear, as long as he pointed his ear in one direction, he could block the noisy background sound, and hear the conversation of people in which direction, even in an environment like a café, whispering 20 meters away could be heard.
After turning a few directions, I heard someone whispering curses that the Japanese are buying people's hearts again; There are also those who talk about the wind and snow; There is talk about the price of gold skyrocketing again this month, and it has nothing to do with it. After a few more turns, at the other table, I heard someone talking about key words.
One of the scholars said: "This time, in order to participate in the grand event, Taijun recast the bell of Haiguang Temple, I heard that there are 3,000 catties, and today I asked to go in to see and see." ”
Another asked: "Didn't you say that the original bell was pulled by the Japanese to make shells, isn't it full of food?" ”
"Now that the Japanese have won the world, they naturally have to think about how to govern the world, and they can't just rely on guns, they naturally have to buy off social elites and help them manage China. Look, the invitations have been given to me. ”
As soon as Lin Xiuxuan heard that there was a door, he hurriedly glanced there, wanting to see what this virtuous man looked like.
I saw that the guy took out an invitation card with a big red background and gilded letters, which was extremely cheesy, and after unfolding. You can see that there are no recognizable objects such as photographs. Only one line of the header and the Japanese command printed.
Lu Qingshan didn't have Lin Xiuxuan's ability to have a thousand miles of ears, he looked in the direction of the Japanese headquarters through the glass, and saw a car parked at the door, and a few people came down. One of them wears glasses and looks quite familiar. He craned his neck to watch, much like Kagesa, but in a flash the group entered.
"Team leader, I'd love to see Kagesa Zhenzhao."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not sure, but I've met him in Shanghai and seen him walk, and that's it."
"How sure are you?"
"Fifty percent."
Lin Xiuxuan knew that his subordinate was quite a city government, and if he said it, he must be sure, he said fifty percent, but in fact, he said eight or ninety percent.
"Let's go, let's get an invitation."
The two guests got up to leave, and they followed. Seeing that the two broke up at the entrance of the store, the guest with the invitation did not go to the direction of the Japanese headquarters, but turned a corner and went into an alley.
The two followed, ready to move. Of course, you can't leave a living mouth after taking the invitation, so as not to stir up trouble at that time. In fact, there is no evidence that this person is a traitor, but he can only be blamed for showing off in front of others because he loves people too much.
The guy looked at his watch and got into a brothel. Lin Xiuxuan and Lu Qingshan walked around, observed the terrain, it was quite secluded, there was a coffin shop at the end of the street, the door was not locked, and the carpenter was planing the coffin board inside. After a while, the carpenter also left, and did not close the door, obviously no one would steal the coffin in broad daylight, and he could not drag it away if he had the heart.
They waited at the door for 30 minutes, and the guy came out with a satisfied face, quite quickly, and a dusty woman waving a handkerchief behind him took a few steps and walked forward and entered the house.
Lu Qingshan stepped forward and bumped into him, then turned around and left, the guy was not slow to react, and immediately found that his wallet was missing. Lin Xiuxuan saw clearly on the side, thinking to himself, who taught Lu Qingshan's hand?
"Jie thief, stole it on Lao Tzu's head, don't go."
Lu Qingshan didn't hurry, just walked quickly. The guy chased after him, saw it, and grabbed Lu Qingshan's shoulder. Later, Lin Xiuxuan rushed to cover his mouth and strangled his neck, dragged him to the coffin shop warehouse, and strangled him hard for a minute and a half, but this guy didn't move. Probed the carotid artery, it was indeed dead, this person is also pitiful, maybe just a pro-Japanese element, and the crime is not to death. Soon searched for the invitation, threw the dead body into a mouthful, and was shocked and painted, very inside.
"Search and see if the invitation is there."
Lu Qingshan was quick and immediately searched for an invitation, but unfortunately there was only one, and it seemed that Lin Xiuxuan could only be allowed to go in alone. Lin thought to himself: That's fine, Lu Qingshan can stay outside to answer.
