Under the moon, a long queue hurriedly arrived outside the village.
The soldiers who were left waiting immediately came forward to greet them: "The bandits are stationed in Zhaozhuang Village, ten miles east. The company commander and Captain Yang have already passed there first. The company commander orders you, company two, to arrive in an hour!"
"Ten miles, does it take an hour?"
"Hehe, the company commander said, let's pick a soldier in the team who knows kung fu. This time we will learn from the secret service team and use cold weapons to kill bandits!"
The second platoon leader was delighted: "No one alive?"
"The company commander didn't say anything. Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and pick people up as you go."
Outside Zhaozhuang Village.
Under the moonlight, it makes no difference whether you have a telescope or not.
A team circled the slope and approached the village silently. Less than a mile away, most of them were lying in the dry drainage ditch in the wilderness outside the village.
He cautiously raised his head and looked at the village entrance not far away. Two bandit sentries were wandering back step by step with rifles on their backs.
If these two guys didn't smoke, it would be really hard to spot them.
"There are sentries in all directions of the village. As for whether there are hidden sentries... we have no way of knowing at the moment." After circling the village outside, the scout climbed up next to Captain Yang and reported in a low voice.
The few people lying on the ground were carefully observing the situation in the village ahead.
In the early morning, there was faint laughter floating in the wind in Zhaozhuang Village. Except for the occasional barking of dogs in the village, the village seemed quite peaceful.
There are dogs in the village, which will cause great obstacles to the subsequent operations.
As time passed by, dogs barked loudly in the village, and the sentry at the entrance of the village suddenly stopped. Hu Yi held up his binoculars and through the faint moonlight could vaguely see two bandits coming out of the village. It must be the bandits changing sentries.
Gao Yidao, who was also holding a telescope for careful observation, gloated to Hu Yidao in a low voice: "Hu, there are dogs in the village, and the plan you have been thinking about for a long time may come to nothing!"
When Hu Yi heard the sound, he ignored Gao Yidao and pulled out his pocket watch. Next to him, Luo Fugui carefully covered the flashlight with a cloth so that Hu Yi could see clearly the pointer on the pocket watch, which was half past eleven.
Then he turned back and continued to change the bandits.
After a long while, the two bandits entered the village after changing their posts.
Gao Yidao turned around and asked Captain Yang next to him: "Can you find a way to pretend to be a bandit?"
Captain Yang thought for a while: "Bandits generally don't see outsiders at night, so this matter is not easy to handle..."
Gao Yidao refused to give up: "Is there any Taoist leader nearby who just said that the bandit named Wang is here and wants to pay him a visit late at night?"
"Without this rule, bandits would usually blindfold people when entering a village. This is really not possible in the middle of the night."
"What if I pretend to be a Japanese?"
Captain Yang was a little annoyed: "Japanese? That's not possible. Bandits will not let people enter their dens in the middle of the night. That's not right. As the head of Black Tiger Village, don't you know these rules?"
Gao Yidao was furious because the traitor named Hu actually leaked the secrets of the Second Company: "I just wanted to see if the bandits here are the same as the bandits in the mountains."
Hu Yi, who was standing next to him, listened to the conversation between the two and lowered his voice: "Let's touch off the bandit sentry later and use the sound of the bandit's footsteps walking back and forth when changing sentry to get into the village. Even if it causes the dog to bark, the bandit in the village will not be affected. You will suspect that as long as you move fast enough, you can rush into the village and occupy various intersections in time."
Captain Yang was speechless when he heard this: "Isn't this too risky?"
"It's better than attacking by force..."
About two hours later, the bandits changed their posts again.
Hu Yi looked at his watch again, it was half past three in the morning.
According to the intelligence provided by the previous task force, the bandits changed their posts about once every two hours.
There are no patrols.
Hu Yi was a little surprised. The army usually arranged sentry duty in the first half of the night or the second half of the night. This frequent change of sentry duty was actually unscientific.
And all arrangements were for open sentries. According to the habit of the bandit leader Wang Sanzhu, who attended a military academy, he would definitely arrange secret sentries!
The moonlight slanted to the west, and a group of black shadows in the east clung to the ground, slowly flowing along the ditch in the wilderness towards the entrance of the village where the two bandit sentries stood.
The village has long been surrounded by water.
To the south, Luo Fugui positioned his machine gun from a distance and carefully dug out the sand from a small pit with his hands. The small pit gradually became larger.
Not far from him, Li Xiang, Yatou, Tang Dagou, Wan Paoxi, and Wen Wuquan were tossing grenades. When they were crossing the railway line, eight grenades were seized in the gun tower. Li Xiang's grenade would not have become a furnishings.
The soldier at the front held a wooden stick in his mouth to prevent him from making any noise, and kept approaching the bandits outside the village.
Even if it was too cold, the two bandits did not dare to go into the village to find a warm place to laze around. Everyone knew that Young Master Wang was ruthless.
The moon in the western sky emits bright moonlight. The light is blocked by the woods outside the village. The closer to the village, the safer it is.
The two bandits never expected that there would be a sneak attack. Besides, there was really a deep hatred between the bandits. They usually used ambushes and sneak attacks on the plains... it was unheard of.
The two bandits were each leaning on a tree and telling dirty jokes. Although their voices were not loud, they still carried far into the night, and the dog in the village stopped barking.
"Hey, there are no clouds in the sky. Why is there a black shadow in the field?" A bandit suddenly noticed that something was wrong in the wilderness. He thought it was dazzling and was beating his eyes hard.
"Hey, those old ladies in the village make you dizzy?
"Don't talk nonsense. I haven't been out since I found my wife... Hey... what's behind you?" The bandit suddenly noticed a black shadow appearing behind the brother opposite him, and immediately the soul of the dead emerged, trembling and shouting: "Yes Damn..."
Unexpectedly, the bandit opposite him had the same expression as him until both bayonets grazed his neck.
The cry before death caused the dogs in the yard to bark wildly. After being scolded, there was no movement outside the village. The dogs also whined a few times, and the village fell into silence again.
After a while, two bandits with towels tied on their arms at the entrance of the village continued to monitor the wilderness outside the village as if nothing had happened.
The shadows in the wilderness flow faster.
There should be no hidden sentry, otherwise we would have been discovered long ago. A soldier from the Second Company, acting as a sentry, asked the soldier on the opposite side in a low voice.
"Keep your voice down. There must be a secret whistle when people come out of the village. But these bandits are not like our Eighth Route Army. Maybe the secret whistle is asleep." The soldiers who were bandits six months ago were very vigilant and knew that nothing could go wrong.
As for his former colleague in the village, if he took refuge with the Japanese, he would be disloyal and he would die!
Gao Yidao educated his bandits in a simple and crude way. He took the bandits twice to the village that had been raided by the Japanese, and then took these bandits to see the people who had no food, and even dug out the buried corpses. ..
Who is a bloodless man? Under this situation, coupled with the personal testimony of some villagers who had lost their loved ones, the bandits were eager to drink the blood of the Japanese, eat the flesh of the Japanese, and gnaw on the bones of the Japanese!
It has to be said that Gao Yidao's rough education was successful, at least it aroused the bloody spirit of the bandits.
Now I look down upon those same kind who were unfaithful and unjust.
The bandits on the plains, led by Wang Sanzhu, who had attended the puppet military academy, were quite organized.
About two hours later, accompanied by a burst of dog barking, the bandits emerged from the village while changing their sentries.
The four directions of the village are the same and the posts are changed directly.
The two bandits with guns on their backs walked around to the south of the village. They saw their two companions leaning against the tree and muttering: "Go back and get some sleep. The commander said that we have to be on our way after dawn!"
Approaching the two bandits leaning against the dead tree, I saw one of the two idiots yawning and the other coughing violently.
The bandit who came to change the sentry couldn't help but cursed: "You two are so stupid, you can make such a fool just by standing on the sentry..."
The bandit next to him suddenly stopped: "Hey, there seems to be a smell of blood here?"
The barking of dogs in the village became more rapid, and bursts of yelling and cursing could be heard from time to time.
Gao Yidao stood at the entrance of the village. He raised his head and looked at the village carefully. Under the faint moonlight, the sound of dense footsteps suddenly sounded.
A group of dark figures with towels wrapped around their arms and bayonets in their hands crept into the village.
Following closely behind, another team carrying shell guns entered the village.
Perhaps there was too much noise, and a bandit asked from a certain courtyard: "What are you doing?"
"Change the whistle!" A dark figure replied nervously.
"Change of whistles? When did so many whistles be added? Why didn't I know?"
"The commander said, be careful and vigilant. If you have the guts to doze off again, I will sue you later."
"Brother, don't talk nonsense... I've been here most of the night... and I haven't even had a nap." After the bandit whistled secretly, he came out of the house, climbed up the wall with a whoosh and jumped directly outside the courtyard. , I just wanted to explain it to the team that was changing sentries quickly.
The commander went to a military academy, and everyone knows his temper. He is kind to his brothers, but he will show no mercy to anyone who breaks the rules.
