Chapter 1081: The Scout's Story (3)

Lianlu killed two more little devil sentry posts, and finally came to the top of the big mountain behind the little devil's temporary barracks.

Thanks to the arrogant battle of the Supreme Commander of the Little Devils in the evening, the Little Devils did not have time to set up the camp at all, so that the Little Devil camp now does not even have the most basic fence, except for a dozen or so field marching tents in the middle, all the Little Devils have to sleep on the spot.

It also makes the camp of the little devils basically clear at a glance.

Bonfires were everywhere like stars in the sky, and the little devils were roasting on fires, or sleeping back to back, or simply lying on the ground. And the dozen or so large tents were constantly coming in and out at this time, and they seemed very busy.

However, a closer look makes it easy to ascertain what was going on inside the tents: there was one tent where there were far fewer people coming in and out, but they were all running in and out, and with briefcases in their hands, it was clear that it was either the headquarters or the telegraph room. And through the telescope, the radio station can be clearly seen when the people in and out open the door curtain and transmit the light.

In the largest tent in the middle, although there are more people coming in and out, there are not only soldiers standing guard outside, but the density of patrols is also relatively large, and the surroundings are relatively quiet. Since the other tent is a telegraph, this one should be the headquarters. This is also enough to be determined at the moment when the curtain is opened.

The rest is easier to guess, just from the blood on the people who came in and out, and many of them were wearing bloody white coats, it can be seen that these tents were full of wounded. Moreover, around these tents, most of the people lying down are wounded. The only difference is probably that the wounded lying around the tent are definitely less injured than the wounded inside the tent.

Compared with the starry and relatively quiet scene here, the county seat of Sanqiao County, a few hundred meters away, is as brightly lit as the sun, and the noise can even be heard clearly. Especially on the city wall, countless people are rushing to repair the city wall overnight...... What is strange is that everyone knows that the enemy on the opposite side is repairing the city wall, so if you attack the city wall the next day, it will definitely be more difficult, and as long as you give the opposite wall a few shots now, it is enough to delay the speed of the opposite side. But what makes people strange is that I don't know if the little devil is really tired and exhausted, or if he is arrogant enough to think that the difficulty of the attack caused by the city wall repaired in one night, he is not taken to heart by the little devils at all, anyway, the little devil here actually has no intention of opening artillery or sending troops to destroy, but just watches it. Even, some little devils were still smiling at the people who were busy on the opposite city wall, pointing and saying something, which really made Zhang Jun and the others extremely puzzled, but they were helpless, they couldn't rush to the little devils to ask for advice, right?

Of course, these are not the main purpose of Zhang Jun's trip, and now, they are in a hurry to find the artillery position of the little devil.

Judging from the battle in the evening, the artillery position of the little devils was established halfway up the mountain where they were now located. In other words, it is only more than 300 meters away from them. And after searching the little devil camp three times with a telescope, everyone unanimously determined that the little devil's mountain artillery was not in the camp. In other words, nine times out of ten, they stay halfway up the mountain and do not move.

However, looking at the bonfire like stars, which stretched halfway up the mountain, you can see that although the little devil put the artillery position at the rear, it seems that he doesn't care, but this is definitely just an illusion.

The little devil connected the artillery position to the big battalion, although it was at the end, but for a person who understands military affairs, it can be seen at a glance that the biggest advantage of the little devil doing this is that once the artillery position has an accident, they will definitely have time to rescue.

Moreover, the little devils hid the artillery positions in the forest, so that even if the assault regiment wanted to attack at night, it would have to look for half a day. This point, just like the four of Zhang Jun now, although it is generally certain that the artillery position of the little devil has not moved, but the problem is that the mountains are full of trees, and even if they look down from the top of the mountain, they can't see the location of a single cannon.

Unless Zhang Jun they venture closer. But the problem is that the little devil is absolutely loose on the outside and tight on the inside of this big mountain: on the surface, the little devil doesn't seem to care, but in fact, if nothing else, there are no less than six patrols on the top of this mountain alone. Zhang Jun and they are well aware of this, because they have already figured it out, basically, every two minutes, a patrol will pass by the path behind them. It is certain that the further down it goes, the greater the defense density of the little devil will inevitably be, not to mention anything else, Zhang Jun and the four of them can definitely be sure that the little devil is definitely hiding a lot of secret posts in this forest.

At this time, Zhang Jun and the four of them were in a dilemma: if they wanted to find out the specific location and number of the little devil's artillery positions, they had to take risks. However, the other party has definitely arranged many secret sentinels, and if this touch continues, it is very likely to alarm the little devils, and thus may expose the entire sneak attack plan.

Can't go down at all?

In the end, Zhang Jun gritted his teeth and decided to go down!

The reason is simple, at the time of such a big battle, it is normal for the activities of the scouts on both sides to be at their peak during the break. At this time, if a small group of scouts touched the vicinity of the opponent's camp, even if it was discovered by the enemy, most of them would only think that the other party was here to investigate the situation on their side, but would not think that this was a sneak attack sent by the other party. Of course, the premise is that even if these scouts who come to investigate are captured alive, they must be able to withstand the other party's torture methods, otherwise, as long as one scout can't hold out and betrays everyone, then everything will be exposed.

Relatively speaking, this risk is worth taking, so Zhang Jun will make up his mind to investigate. After all, for the scouts, or rather, for Zhang Jun, it is an honor in itself to be specially selected by the regiment commander this time, if they retreat in the face of difficulties, let the advantages that they have finally touched here be abandoned, and everyone will be very sorry for the south in public and private.

Besides, Zhang Jun, as an old scout, is very confident in himself.

However, God made a joke at this time.

“#¥%&......”

"Smack!"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Just when Zhang Jun and the four of them were preparing to act, to the left, that is, in the direction where the second reconnaissance team was located, there was a sudden roar of the little devil, followed by two box cannon gunshots, and finally, there was a dense mix of box guns and 38 big covers, an absolute melee.

Obviously, at this time, there is only one possibility that such a scene can occur: the second investigation team has been exposed.

And what accompanies these gunshots must be the encirclement and suppression of the little devils. However, what surprised Zhang Jun and the others was that on all sides of this mountain, countless flashlight lights lit up almost at the same time, just like countless bright swords suddenly appeared, swaying left and right to pierce the darkness, but they all quickly rushed towards the place where the gunshots came.

Now that it's been exposed, there's no need to think about anything else.

Zhang Jun immediately ordered: support quickly.

And the so-called rapid support, in fact, does not mean that they want to kill the past and respond, but just ambush here, waiting for the little devils who are going to encircle and suppress them when they pass by, and hit them in an ambush...... Not to mention anything else, just from the gunshots, the little devils who appeared in all directions almost at the same time, you can judge that this is definitely a trap, and it is a trap specially arranged by the little devils who judged that someone was going to attack tonight. Otherwise, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, it is absolutely impossible for them to sleep in the camp with the highest safety factor when they are tired to death, and lie in ambush around this mountain.

And Zhang Jun and his scouts are a total of twelve people, to put it mildly, even if all of them are gathered together, it is impossible for all of them to break out of the encirclement specially set up by the little devils, not to mention that Zhang Jun and their group only have four people, even if they reinforced the second reconnaissance team in the past, they are definitely going to accompany the funeral...... If it were in another place, most of the people would still go to the rescue, but now, it is necessary to report the situation here to the first and second companies, so as not to let more comrades be fooled and shed blood...... In layman's terms, at this time, the really correct way is to sneak out and pass the information back as the first priority. And now, what can help the second investigation team is to help it attract firepower and distract the attention of the little devils. This is already a great risk, and it has definitely fulfilled the feelings of comrades-in-arms.

The four of them immediately worked in pairs, scattered to the left and right of the path, each holding a box cannon in their right hand and a * in their left hand that had twisted the lid open to reveal the lead.

As soon as the ambush was completed, I saw several flashlight lights shining in the forest not far away. It was only from the electric light that swayed left and right that it could be known that the little devils who came obviously did not notice Zhang Jun and them, but ran too fast in a hurry to go to the source of the gunshot, and their hands shook so badly that the flashlight light also flickered indiscriminately.

As if they had a heart in their hearts, in front of a small group of eight little devils who quickly arrived about thirty meters away from Zhang Jun and them, the four of Zhang Jun almost unanimously rang at the same time. Then, all of them counted twice in their hearts, and finally, they struggled to throw the smoking* little devils who were coming towards them.

"Boom! boom!"

Four* exploded almost at the same time, sounding as if they had only gone off twice, but they worked surprisingly well.

In the flash of firelight, although several flashlights were blown up, they were still miraculously still lit, giving people a sense of absurdity that the snow sword was blown away.

But in the middle of this, the screams of the little devils sounded one after another, and even Zhang Jun saw with his own eyes that the two little devils didn't have time to lie down, and they were directly blown up by the * that he threw out......

"Quick Fix!"

Zhang Jun shouted and immediately rushed over.

There is no time to check whether these little devils have been blown up, as long as they see the little devils, go up and make up a shot, and if the other party makes a scream, then give another shot.

In less than ten seconds, the battle ended.

And Zhang Jun turned his head to look at the left side where the gunshots and explosions were getting denser and denser, and shouted: "Brothers, take care!", and then, gritting his teeth and waving his hand, he quickly ran in the direction of the road with his three comrades, and soon disappeared into the night......
