According to Tang Cheng's plan, after sneaking into the arms warehouse to find explosives or grenades, he should immediately evacuate from the arms warehouse, and then find an opportunity to set fire to the dock cargo yard. As long as the fire started, it would get out of control with the help of the wind, and then he would take advantage of the chaos to create greater chaos on the dock, taking the opportunity to destroy the materials stored by the Japanese army on the dock. But he had calculated everything, but he had not calculated that the Japanese army would load some of the supplies on the dock tonight.
Tangcheng just dragged two backpacks filled with grenades and emerged from the east wall of the arms warehouse. They immediately heard the noise coming from the direction of the goods yard. Tang Cheng's face hardened, and he immediately turned around to block the hole in the wall, then started moving toward the goods yard with a backpack in each hand. Not far from the goods yard, after Tang Cheng bypassed a large amount of supplies, the scene that appeared in front of him almost made Tang Cheng angry. The cargo yard, which was empty just now, was now brightly lit, and there was a large crowd of dock workers standing there, which made Tang Cheng feel dizzy.
A fat translator stood on the truck, holding a tin trumpet and shouting. Under the truck stood a Japanese military officer with a sharp face and several Japanese military police. Tang Cheng, who was squatting behind the cargo pile, listened carefully and realized that these dock workers were summoned temporarily because some of the goods in the cargo yard would be loaded onto ships tonight. After understanding the reason, Tang Cheng frowned secretly. The purpose of his operation tonight was to set fire to the Japanese military dock to create chaos and take the opportunity to destroy these supplies.
But so many dock workers suddenly appeared in the dock cargo yard. If his action of destroying the dock affected these innocent dock workers, then his sin would be great. Just as Tang Cheng was deep in thought behind the cargo pile, a beam of light from a flashlight suddenly shone on Tang Cheng. "Who is it? Come out!" Along with a shout, Tang Cheng, who expected it in his heart, heard the sound of pulling the gun bolt again. Tang Cheng, who secretly screamed that something bad had happened, ignored the two backpacks beside him and took out the pistol from the equipment bag, then ran forward and got out of the flashlight beam's range.
The shouts from behind the cargo pile also attracted the attention of the Japanese officer on the other side of the cargo yard. With just a gesture from him, the Japanese military police standing next to the truck rushed toward the cargo pile with guns in hand. Tang Cheng, who was still moving around in the cargo pile at this moment, knew that he might have been caught in a situation where he was being attacked from both sides. However, he did not panic. Instead, he suddenly stopped suddenly, then turned around and pointed his pistol at the man who had been shining the flashlight on him. Patrolling soldiers.
Thanks to God's help, there were only two patrol soldiers who found and shined flashlights on Tangcheng. These two guys were originally going to urinate behind the cargo pile, but unexpectedly, they happened to find Tang Cheng squatting behind the cargo pile. At first, they thought that Tang Cheng came here to be lazy and pulled the gun just to scare Tang Cheng, but neither of them expected that what happened next was far beyond their expectations. "Puff! Puff!" There were two soft sounds, and gunfire flashed from behind the cargo pile. The two patrolmen who first discovered Tangcheng were shot and fell to the ground.
At this moment, Tang Cheng had no time to refill the guns of the two soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground. Instead, he quickly stepped forward to pick up the flashlight on the ground, then turned around and walked towards the Japanese military police who were rushing over. The pistol used by Tang Cheng has been equipped with a silencer. From a distance, it is impossible to tell whether it is a gunshot or not. So when Tang Cheng came out from behind the cargo pile with a flashlight in one hand and a pistol in the other, the Japanese military police who had gathered around him as ordered subconsciously slowed down and lowered the muzzles of their rifles.
"It's okay! When we patrolled here, we found a new recruit hiding here smoking!" Tang Cheng's fluent Japanese confused these Japanese military police even more. The biggest reason was that Tangcheng was still standing in the shadow of the cargo pile, but the Japanese military police were affected by the beam of flashlight, which affected their sight. Tang Cheng, who was secretly counting the number of military policemen on the opposite side, had no intention of getting out of the shadow next to the cargo pile, so he suddenly raised his right hand hidden behind his back.
"Be careful, he's not..." Tang Cheng's sudden movement of raising his right hand seemed very abrupt. Among the Japanese military police who had relaxed their vigilance, some of them reacted immediately. Unfortunately, the military police captain who was the first to react only had time to shout five words before he was shot in the face by Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng's close-range rapid fire was specially trained in Chongqing. Even the shooting instructors in the military command headquarters were no match for Tang Cheng in the subject of close-range rapid fire.
In just two breaths, Tang Cheng had fired all the five remaining bullets in the pistol magazine, and there were still two Japanese military police standing there more than ten meters away from Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng, who had run out of bullets, began to calmly replace the spare magazine. Of the two remaining Japanese military policemen, one raised his rifle in a panic, and the other shouted in panic. The Japanese officer who was still standing next to the truck also noticed something unusual at this time. Hearing the shouts of his military police, the fat translator who was standing on the truck and shouting jumped out of the truck immediately.
There was also a commotion among the dock workers who gathered in front of the truck. After a foreman came forward to shout, the dock workers reluctantly became quiet. At this time in Tangcheng, the spare magazines had been replaced. After the gunfire flashed, the last two Japanese military policemen still standing were shot and fell one after another. Naturally, there could not be only a few Japanese military police supervising the loading of these dock workers. Under the command of the Japanese officer, the remaining Japanese military police dispersed and pressed towards Tangcheng.
Tang Cheng, who had taken advantage of him, retreated at this moment. When he emerged from behind the cargo pile again, among the scattered Japanese military police, the one closest to him was already less than ten meters away. However, Tang Cheng did not shoot the Japanese military policeman. He just waited quietly. After a few breaths, Tang Cheng suddenly raised his hand and threw a grenade high. Tang Cheng threw the grenade at this moment not to kill the Japanese military police who were trying to surround him. What he did was just to cause panic among the dock workers.
"Boom!" The grenade that landed in the cargo yard exploded. Taking advantage of the explosion, Tang Cheng stepped out from behind the cargo pile and knocked down the Japanese military policeman closest to him with his pistol. The grenade exploded, and the dock workers who had been calmed down actually started to riot. The foreman tried to calm them down, but to no avail. "Run!" In the chaos, no one knew who shouted, and the panicked dock workers suddenly dispersed, and even the two foremen ran away with the crowd.
Seeing that his method worked, Tang Cheng, who had used the cargo pile as cover, felt relieved. He immediately picked up the two backpacks on the ground and quickly retreated. By the time the Japanese military policemen gathered around the cargo pile with rifles in hand, Tang Cheng had already hidden in the shadows around the cargo yard. The Japanese officer who was originally standing next to the truck rushed over angrily with a pistol. Little did he know that Tang Cheng had already moved not far from the truck at this time.
There were gunshots and explosions in the cargo yard, and the Japanese patrol guarding the dock also rushed over immediately. If something happens to the cargo yard, which is the most important part of the terminal, they who are on duty cannot escape the responsibility. In less than three or four minutes, three patrol teams arrived at the cargo yard. After seeing the traces of explosions and several corpses on the ground, they immediately started searching the entire cargo yard.
"No, it's on fire!" A plume of smoke suddenly appeared from the southeast corner of the cargo yard. A patrol soldier with good eyesight pointed at the location where the smoke appeared and shouted loudly. As if to confirm his cry, where the smoke appeared, a fire broke out the next second. The Japanese soldiers who were searching the goods yard were all dumbfounded. In the southeast corner of the goods yard, not only flammable materials such as cotton yarn were stored, but also a batch of temporarily stored oil.
With a loud "Boom!", the oil originally stored in the southeast corner of the cargo yard exploded. Dozens or hundreds of flaming oil barrels were thrown high with the explosion, and then scattered parabolically to other locations in the cargo yard. . Oil drums filled with oil will be thrown high with the explosion. None of the Japanese soldiers present have ever seen this scene. In fact, they didn't know that the oil barrels thrown up high by the explosion had been tampered with by Tangcheng in advance. These oil barrels actually only contained half a barrel of oil.
Before setting fire to the oil area, Tang Cheng used a short knife to poke out some oil barrels. Compared with the full barrels, these oil barrels with only half a barrel of oil left would be easily thrown up after the explosion. But no matter what, these oil drums containing oil are a big trouble. Sure enough, after being thrown high by the explosion, the oil barrels scattered to other locations in the cargo yard either ignited new fires or exploded again after landing.
Faced with such a situation, no one would foolishly rush to put out the fire. What the Japanese soldiers in the cargo yard thought more about was to withdraw from the cargo yard as soon as possible. With the emergence of fire and the sound of explosions from time to time, the goods yard finally turned into a mess. It happened that the wind was blowing tonight, and the fire that gradually formed into a large fire quickly engulfed half of the cargo yard with the help of the wind.
A Japanese major who then rushed to the goods yard could only open his mouth but could do nothing when faced with the fire in front of him. However, Tang Cheng took advantage of the opportunity to shoot and kill the Japanese soldiers who were panicking in the chaotic goods yard. However, as the fire expanded and more and more Japanese troops came over, Tangcheng's fishing in troubled waters was still discovered. But Tang Cheng was not afraid and just continued to set fires in other parts of the dock to create greater chaos.
