After the mines near the stone bridge exploded one after another.
There was no movement on the smoke-filled river embankment for a while.
The Japanese and puppet soldiers who were swimming were confused.
Finally, someone brave enough not to fear death rushed up the river embankment screaming.
After a while, a Japanese voice shouted: "The Eighth Route Army has abandoned its position and may have fled eastward."
Seeing that the imperial soldiers were all on the river embankment, the puppet soldiers ducked around the area next to the stone where there were corpses everywhere, and ran towards the river embankment.
Finally occupied the Tuba Road position which was still filled with smoke.
Under the command of the puppet company commander and platoon leader, the puppet soldiers followed and established warning positions on the spot!
The leading Japanese soldiers cautiously headed eastward and finally emerged from the smoke.
I saw that only the ground floor of the turret was left, and thick smoke was rising into the air.
In the distance to the east is the densely packed back of the eight-way escape.
He immediately raised his gun, hesitated for a moment, and then put it down. Eight kinds were already three hundred meters away, turned around and shouted at the gun smoker behind him.
A hole in the big stone bridge over the Zhizhang River collapsed, making it impossible for people to cross.
Japanese engineers had already come up carrying wooden planks, intending to repair the hole in the stone bridge that had been blown apart.
Unfortunately, the hole that was blown off was about eight meters long.
Obviously, there is no hope of repairing it anytime soon.
As a result, heavy weapons were temporarily unable to be transported to the other side of the river.
Hearing the shouts of the sharp soldiers in front, the Japanese second lieutenant and sergeant who followed the infantry across the river blew their whistles and hurriedly assembled the team.
The Japanese infantry soldiers swimming across the river had water in their shoes, which made running extremely uncomfortable.
He took off his shoes to pour water, and used a spatula to dry the water-logged rifle. It was a busy mess.
After a while, the Japanese and puppet troops gathered again and embarked on the pursuit.
The shelled highway was riddled with craters.
boom.
The landmine buried on the road suddenly exploded, knocking over seven or eight Japanese who were running the fastest along the road.
The screams made people feel panicked.
Finally, I realized that all the escape routes ahead were in the ground.
There was no suppression fire, and there were mines on the road.
The pursuing Japanese infantry had to disperse into the wheat fields on both sides of the road.
Just ran less than a hundred meters.
Three or four hundred meters away, two light machine guns hidden in the wheat field to block the attack suddenly fired.
Ta da da. Ta da da.
The ballistics knocked down a few more Japs who were about to pursue them from the ground.
Bullets don't have eyes.
The pursuing Japanese soldiers had to lie down in the wheat field in frustration.
Wheat ridges can block your vision, but they can't stop bullets.
The Japanese Lieutenant poked his head out, and the figures of Eighth Route Army running away in the distance in front of them disappeared and appeared in the wheat field under the sun.
The slowest Route 8 was less than three or four hundred meters away. No wonder the machine guns on Route 8 would open fire.
The lieutenant drew his command knife and shouted loudly: "Pursuit."
The Japanese and puppet soldiers got up from the wheat field, picked up the rifles in their hands, and crackled forward.
Once again, they braved eight-way machine gun fire and pursued desperately.
The distance of three hundred meters is too far, so there is no need to talk about shooting accuracy.
Even if you waste bullets, you still have to shoot. If you shoot too many bullets, you can always cover them.
Plains are different from mountains.
Everyone faced the same environment. In terms of physical strength and poor living conditions, the Eighth Route Army was far inferior to the Japanese and puppet troops.
Of course, they can't outrun the Japanese and puppet troops.
It’s not a matter of who has the courage and perseverance to run faster.
If it weren't for the fact that the Japs had short legs and the puppet troops were unable to do their jobs, the Japs would have chased the Eighth Route Army's escape away.
One chase and one escape.
From time to time, people on both sides were knocked down by ridges of wheat.
The sound of gunfire behind him was as non-stop as fried beans.
The bullets screeched past, or passed through the straw, making a crackling sound.
The tall Luo Fugui moved his legs very fast and ran a mile away.
The machine gunners who stayed behind to block the attack stopped from time to time and shot at the Japanese and puppet troops who were pursuing behind them.
There were five people following Mancang, and the ammunition hand suddenly fell down.
He quickly looked back at the distance, and saw that the Japanese were getting closer and closer.
But the sound of Japanese machine guns was never heard.
Next to him, Hu Yi, who had just emptied a magazine, shouted: "Stop all of them and hit them."
The three strong men carrying the machine gun immediately put down the machine gun and gasped: "Where to put it?"
Hu Yi gritted his teeth: "Get on the highway!"
No one questioned it, so they found a place with no traces of excavation and quickly put the machine gun back.
Mancang smoothly turned the brim of his hat to the back of his head.
Tom tom tom tom
The Eighth Route Heavy Machine Gun fired arrogantly again.
He directly beat the Japs scattered in the wheat field to the ground again.
The Japanese lieutenant who swam from the river had red eyes, but he didn't panic.
This group of Eighth Route Army guerrillas was completely different from the guerrillas we had seen before. They were not like the Eighth Route Army guerrillas we had seen before, firing off two shots and then continuing to run.
The blocking was impressive.
Shoot alternately, and retreat while firing.
The stone bridge was blown up, and heavy firepower and other weapons could only be sent from the pontoon bridge.
He was waiting for the light and heavy machine gun fire support that was about to come up.
Without heavy firepower to suppress the eight-pronged group armed with light and heavy machine guns, it would be a sure way to die!
He now only hopes to get firepower reinforcements before the Eighth Route Army escapes into the Qingsha tent.
I kept looking back and finally saw the Japs running towards me carrying heavy machine guns and light machine guns.
Wei County.
Under the scorching sun.
Bursts of creaking sounds echoed in the street.
Xiao Hongying followed four men pushing two wheelbarrow grain carts.
From a distance, I saw two autonomous city defense troops standing at the entrance of the compound in front.
Xiao Hongying lowered her voice: "This guy is weird. He seems to be wary of something."
Shopkeeper Cheng, who was pretending to be a waiter, wiped his sweat with a towel: "There is no need to worry about these little characters. If he dares to be nagging, he will be killed later."
A long sign with black characters on a white background hangs on the side of the courtyard gate: Allied Autonomous Army Wei County South Gate Tax Office.
Seeing a few guys pushing grain carts approaching, the pseudo-autonomous city defense force at the door raised their guns and asked, "What are you doing?"
The first waiter raised his head, nodded and bowed in a low voice: "Hello, sir, I'm here to deliver the food."
Xiao Hongying, who was following behind, took a closer look at the two puppet troops.
One of the puppet soldiers, with eyes like fire, glanced at the guys who were coming over. When he saw Xiao Hongying looking over, he immediately paid attention: "Why are you bringing food to a girl's house?"
The rifles in the hands of the puppet soldiers seemed to put great pressure on several guys.
Xiao Hongying didn't feel the pressure from the puppet army at all. Instead, her big thief eyes swept around the puppet army: "What are you yelling about? Why don't you give me the money you owe me for the Cheng family's grain account?"
Shopkeeper Cheng in the back seemed to have come to his senses at this time, and hurriedly saluted the puppet soldiers: "Sir, don't blame me, the old shopkeeper is ill, and the young lady doesn't understand the rules, so please Haihan."
The puppet army sneered: "Don't try to get involved with me! Old man Cheng also has a daughter, why haven't I heard of it?"
Shopkeeper Cheng then handed over a cigarette: "In these days, who has a daughter and still makes noise in the streets?"
The puppet soldier took the cigarette, and his expression became a little better: "Get out of the way quickly, don't block the road."
Another truck delivering food followed.
The puppet troops no longer paid attention to the food delivery boy.
A group of five people successfully entered the puppet city defense army compound.
Shopkeeper Cheng pushed the grain cart directly to the backyard kitchen.
Find the person who takes the food in the kitchen and weigh it on the scale.
The person receiving the food didn't notice that there were four strangers coming.
She directly wrote down the grain delivered on the account book that Xiao Hongying handed over, and then drew the note: "Move them all to the warehouse."
After that, he led a few people and walked straight to the warehouse next to the kitchen.
Xiao Hongying did not follow the grain mover, taking advantage of the fact that the person receiving the grain was not paying attention.
Taking Li Laosi with him, he walked directly into the two-story building next to him.
The two of them stopped furtively by the wall, listened for a while, and then began to walk upstairs quietly.
I poked my head in the corridor on the second floor and took a few glances into the room. Inside the room lay a puppet soldier taking a nap.
In a room at the end, there was a lot of noise, and it sounded like people were gambling.
The stairs cannot go directly to the top floor, and there is a skylight on the roof.
Li Laosi, who was well prepared, rounded up a flying rope and threw it directly to the roof of the building. He quickly climbed up to the attic mezzanine next to the skylight like a civet cat.
Then, an explosive package delivered by Shopkeeper Cheng hidden in the grain truck was pulled to the roof.
not long time.
Xiao Hongying, who came down from the second floor, followed shopkeeper Cheng and pushed the wheelbarrow out of the barracks door.
The puppet soldiers guarding the gate saw the four people walking out of the yard and didn't even notice that one person was missing.
The reason is very simple. There are many people who deliver goods and food to the puppet army camp together, and they do not necessarily have to go out together.
Grain number.
Old shopkeeper Cheng had a bitter look on his face.
