When the carriage passed by Lao Li's county brigade defense area, Lao Li and others said that Erniu's car had passed by yesterday. It seemed that it had passed through several checkpoints, but there were no casualties. There were people taking care of it on the road from here to the mountains. , safety should not be an issue.
However, the carriage was slow after all, so Xiaowuzi and the others did not dare to be too careless.
Sure enough, I didn't go far when I heard the sound of galloping horse hooves, from far to near. It was two Japanese cavalry, beating horses and galloping on the road. They also saw the carriage on the roadside, but they did not slow down their horses. Not fast, but whizzing by.
Then, the two horses stumbled and fell down, but the two Japanese cavalrymen saw the tripping ropes lying across the road while flying in the air.
No one would feel comfortable falling off a high-speed horse. Xiaowuzi had this experience, but these two Japanese communications soldiers obviously did not.
This can be judged from the way they fell.
Just when they were about to get up, they were held down by two pairs of hands like iron pliers, and then they were tied into rice dumplings.
There must be something important for them to run away so carelessly. Since Xiaowuzi and the others have caught two alive, they plan to ask, but the few Japanese words Xiaowuzi learned are not very good, right?
At this time, Brother Hong and Sister Li brought the horses back.
Brother Hong came over and took out the box of cannons that Xiao Wuzi gave him. When he opened his mouth, he spoke fluent Japanese, which made Xiao Wuzi and Yu Hai stunned.
Brother Hong took off the hat stuffed in the mouth of a Japanese soldier and asked questions very quickly. The Japanese soldier's mouth was turned to the sky, and he kept swearing. I can hear a few words.
Brother Hong put his pistol against the Japanese soldier's lifeline and asked another stern question, but was rewarded with even more vicious curses from the Japanese soldier.
"Bang!" The gun rang out, and the little devil's egg must have been shattered, because he howled like a wolf in pain. Even though she was tied up, she was still rolling on the ground.
Brother Hong waited for him to howl for a while, then put the gun on his head and asked sharply again.
This time the little devil stopped swearing, but his screams became louder and louder, without even thinking of answering. "Bang!" The box cannon sounded again, and the Japanese's brains and blood spurted out from the back of his head. The red and white splashes were eye-catching on the green grass.
Brother Hong put the gun against the lifeline of another Japanese soldier again, almost yelling out his questioning words. The veins on his neck were so high that it seemed that the next second would be the shot that would kill his descendants.
The Japanese soldier was frightened and said something very fast. Xiao Wuzi could tell that he was probably begging for mercy.
Look at the kid's crotch with urine leaking out.
Then Brother Hong slowed down his tone and persuaded, while the Japanese soldier said something while blinking and squeezing the cat's urine.
Xiao Wuzi had already taken out the letter from their saddle bag and handed it to Brother Hong. He discovered that Bai Xue's brother was definitely not an ordinary person. How could he look like an ordinary reporter?
Brother Hong looked at the documents and said to Sister Li: "There is an emergency. The Japanese somehow detected the location of the Eighth Route Army headquarters and are now mobilizing troops to encircle it.
We must send someone to deliver a letter to the headquarters immediately. If we wait to report back, it will be too late. "
Although Sister Li is a woman, she is a very decisive person.
She handwritten a report on the spot, signed her name, and asked Yu Hai to immediately ride to the Eighth Route Army headquarters in Liao County to deliver the letter.
Commander-in-Chief Zhu and Commander-in-Chief Peng are both there.
Xiao Wuzi is injured, and his escort mission has not yet been completed, so he cannot give up halfway.
Yu Hai put the letter into his saddle bag, put his submachine gun on his back, hit the horse and galloped away.
Xiaowuzi threw the living little devil into the carriage and asked Sister Li to look at him.
Anyway, the little devil couldn't move, because Xiao Wuzi tied his hands and feet tightly and his mouth was blocked.
Brother Hong rode next to the carriage, with Xiao Wuzi's cannon in his waist.
The weapons of these two Japanese cavalrymen were good. They were exactly the carbines that Xiao Wuzi wanted to get for Xiao Hu Lai. They were short and light, and were very suitable for Xiao Hu Lai, who was not tall.
When the three of them arrived in Fuping County, it was the time when the sun was setting. The sunset glow was like fire, making people's faces blush.
Erniu and the others have been waiting for them here for two days. To say that, the car must be fast!
After Xiao Hu Lai got his beloved weapon, he hugged it and never let go. He wished he could sleep with the gun in his arms. After being scolded by Old Liu, he put the gun aside. He still looked up from time to time to see if his precious gun was still there? Has it been stolen?
I stayed at home overnight and replenished my supplies with bullets and grenades. Xiao Wuzi took back the gun card luzi he lent to Xiao Hu. Sister Li asked him for some more bullets. Xiao Wuzi also put the gun on his waist. He planned to give it to Brother Hong.
Early the next morning, they had to continue on the road, because the destination of this escort was Yan'an.
After meeting with Mr. Sun and Susan again, Brother Hong put on his glasses and suit again, and combed his hair shiny.
He resumed his polite demeanor as a reporter, as if the person who executed the Japanese soldiers was another person.
We can't drive a car this time, because if we go further west, there are more mountain roads and they are so bumpy that cars are worse than horse-drawn carriages.
In addition, the Japanese army is carrying out large-scale raids, and the roads are still unsafe.
Xiao Hu Lai made a fuss about following him, and Xiao Wuzi talked to him very formally, saying that this mission was to protect reporters going to Yan'an, and that there might not be a combat mission, and it needed to be kept secret. He would take him with him when there was a combat mission next time.
Xiao Hulai only eats this. If you have a serious conversation with him, he will treat himself as an adult, consider things comprehensively, and be absolutely sensible.
Yu Hai went to deliver the message, and the leader of the Anti-Japanese University sent another person to replace him. When Xiao Wuzi saw it, he saw another acquaintance. He was a subordinate who ran away with Lao Shang. His name was Chen Shusheng, and his marksmanship was also good.
These soldiers were not punished, and several of them with special skills were sent to the Anti-Japanese University to study.
Sidezi became the vanguard this time because he was from northern Shaanxi, and his hometown was Suide, which was not far from Yan'an.
This kid turned out to be a sheepherder and never went to school. He only learned some cultural knowledge in a literacy class after joining the Eighth Route Army.
But this kid is smart and can learn everything quickly. He was always the best in the original army.
His self-confidence was shattered when he came to Kangda University, especially Xiao Wuzi, who was several years younger than him. His learning speed was no slower than his, and his marksmanship was as good as his. He also drove a car, modified bombs, and swam. These were all He doesn't know how to do it, but Xiao Wuzi has it all at his fingertips.
However, the greatest advantage of the Four Virtues is that they love to learn. If they don’t know how to learn, wouldn’t they be good at it? At the very least, if you come all the way back, you can drive the car very fast without messing around with Erniu in vain.
They traveled through mountains and rivers on mountainous roads. They drove two carriages, and sometimes they had to get out of the car and walk. When encountering difficult roads, everyone had to help push the cart.
When entering the Luliang Mountains, Sidezi met the Japs' pioneer explorers.
With Sidezi's marksmanship, how could he let them escape? He killed both of the top soldiers immediately. Then he ran back and told everyone to go up the mountain.
Because there are too many Japs, almost a squadron of Japs, plus a battalion of puppet troops, numbering five to six hundred people, this battle is impossible to fight. A quick escape is victory.
The carriage could no longer be taken, so Xiaowuzi and the others untied their horses and led them up the mountain.
However, these protected persons are also people who can endure hardships. Not to mention Brother Hong, even Mr. Sun and that foreign girl Susan are very fast.
Sister Li has changed into good glasses. Walking on mountain roads is a common occurrence for her, and she has no worries at all. And she was familiar with the terrain here, because she was from Shanxi, and this group of people had just passed by near her hometown of Taiyuan.
Xiaowuzi and Sidezi stayed behind to break up the attack. Among them, they had the best marksmanship.
The Japanese found that the leading soldiers had been killed, so they sent a detachment to pursue them in this direction. This was a regular force with complete guns and artillery, and they were truly armed to the teeth.
Sidezi threw a handful of Sanba Gai to Xiaowuzi, which belonged to the Japanese top soldier he just picked.
Their submachine guns are useful in close combat, but in this open mountain they are not as good as the 38-gai, because the 38-gai can hit farther.
The two separated, found a few large rocks as a bunker near the mountain ridge, set up their guns and waited for the Japanese to arrive.
The hillside was very steep, and the little devil attacked from his back, so the little five and the others were not too worried.
The Japanese fired test shots when they were outside the shooting range. They would shoot wherever someone might be hiding, whether it was enough or not, but first to scare you.
Sidezi has been secretly competing with Xiaowuzi because he tied with him last time and tied for first place.
When the Japs approached about 400 meters, Sidezi fired. He was too far away and could not hit his head with certainty, so the shot hit the Japs Sergeant in the chest and abdomen. The first shot was successful. He was Demonstrating to Xiaowuzi.
Of course, Xiao Wuzi couldn't let him compete anymore, and he also knocked down the leading Japanese soldier with one shot of "Ba Gou".
After they finished shooting, they both changed places and climbed down to the next bunker. Then there was the sound of bullets hitting the rocks where they had just fired.
Two sharpshooters, just one shot for you and one shot for me. After almost wiping out a detachment of Japanese soldiers, the Japanese soldiers did not get closer than 200 people.
The Japanese army over there drove over, obviously in a hurry, and rolled in an infantry cannon with a rumble. Xiaowuzi gave a signal to Sidezi, and the two quickly climbed over the mountain ridge to find the next blocking point.
The Japanese artillery fired "boom, boom", and the two sharpshooters had already climbed up the second ridge.
The two men were very patient. They knew that the Japanese cannons could not be pushed up such a steep mountain, so the Japanese could only compete with them here.
Although the Japs also had good marksmanship, the enemy was clear and we were hidden, and they had the advantage of terrain. The two young men were confident that they could hold off the Japs soldiers until dark.
