A bicycle team of more than ten members of the Pseudo-Autonomous Army rampaged across the desolate plains.
Liu Yuanqing, Li Laosan, and Captain Xiao stared blankly at the swamp-like area after the flood receded.
A traffic officer on a bicycle led the way.
Ahead, two old men in ragged clothes were sitting on the roadside outside the village.
After seeing clearly that the person coming was Captain Xiao, he quickly stood up and patted the dirt on his butt.
"Old Liu Tou, Captain Xiao... I haven't seen you for a long time..." The uncle greeted the team. They only knew the traffic officer and Captain Xiao of the armed work team, and the others were very unfamiliar.
Captain Xiao asked with a smile on his face: "Uncle Zhao, how is the situation in the village?"
"It's nothing. The district leader wants us to prepare for the transfer. It's almost dark, do you still want to hurry?"
"We are preparing to return to the detachment. Do you have the latest news about Captain Pei and the others?"
"I don't know about this." The uncle scratched his head after saying: "I heard from the traffic officer Lao Zheng that the detachment went to Guantao in the morning to prevent the canal from bursting. In the afternoon, the water level of the canal fell back. It is estimated that we should return soon... "
"Okay, let's go east, maybe we can meet them... There is another team behind us, and these supplies will be placed in the village for the time being." After Captain Xiao finished speaking, he pulled the back of the bicycle away from the Japanese and puppet soldiers. Unpack the clothes that came down.
Uncle Zhao quickly shouted: "Old Liu, hurry into the village and ask a few people to come out to help."
Captain Xiao told Uncle Zhao to organize the villagers to prepare for epidemic prevention.
Uncle Zhao nodded: "We all drink boiled water, and any villagers who have cough or diarrhea will be immediately isolated..."
"How are the doctors and medicines prepared?"
"Doctor Yang Chunlai is in charge of several villages near us. So far, there have been no deaths."
"No one died? Are there many people suffering from diarrhea?"
"There are a few of them. It's probably because it's hot at night, so they went to the river to take a bath and experienced the invasion of foreign evil spirits..."
Captain Xiao was stunned for a moment: "What did you say? Someone took a bath in the river?"
Uncle Zhao nodded: "This damn weather has been dry for half a year. A few days ago there was sudden hail, and then there was continuous solar energy that heated the old dog to death..."
Captain Xiao's hands suddenly started to tremble. He turned around and ordered the team members next to him: "Notify the township chief immediately to start the investigation. From yesterday to now, all people who have bathed in the river and washed clothes by the river have been quarantined... "
Riding a bicycle on the wilderness path.
Captain Xiao looked around with his telescope from time to time.
It’s not about looking at the scenery or really observing.
This time the Nine Battalions' method of ambushing the Japanese and puppet troops opened his eyes.
When they were captured, he asked for a telescope and a heavy machine gun. The armed task force was operating behind enemy lines, and the heavy machine gun was really of little use to them.
But the Lunan detachment didn't even have a heavy machine gun. This time they brought a heavy machine gun back, and the detachment leader was so happy that he couldn't sleep for three days and three nights.
The closer we get to the canal, the more open the terrain becomes and the road becomes smoother.
Hail-beaten sorghum fields began to appear in the fields.
The fields were very quiet, and birds were flying around in the sorghum fields from time to time.
There seems to be no birds stopping in a certain patch of sorghum ahead.
Li Laosan suddenly realized that there seemed to be a crisis: "If there is a situation, get down!"
In an instant, everyone's immediate reaction was to jump off their bicycles and lie down on the spot.
Phew...a bullet flew over Li Laosan's head.
boom...
At this time, gunshots were heard.
The gunfire came from the sorghum land on the left!
Bang bang bang...
The sound of gunfire became intense in an instant, and all the vanguard squads jumped into the ditch on the roadside.
"Don't shoot, everyone! It could be one of our own..." Captain Xiao shouted, waving his arms.
Following the direction from which the gunfire came, he raised his voice: "My uncle's donkey is back... Which part do you belong to..."
Bang bang bang...
More bullets flew towards Captain Xiao who shouted the code word.
The person on the other side didn't seem to understand at all, but instead came a joking shout: "Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. The Taoist will leave your whole bodies..."
Li Laosan raised his head, a look of ferocious determination flashed across his face: "You are not from the Second Brigade, you are the scum of the Taoist sect!"
Captain Xiao said with a dark face: "The various forces in this area are complex, and these guys may be wandering bandits."
Li Laosan looked disdainful: "These damn scum actually went to the base area to run wild. They are really impatient to live!"
The ambush in Gaoliangdi found that the man lying in the ditch on the roadside had not fought back.
The sound of gunfire gradually became sparse and finally disappeared.
In line with the principle of uniting all anti-Japanese forces, Captain Xiao loudly warned: "People on the other side, listen, we are the Eighth Route Army, if you dare to attack us, you will die!"
boom...
This time only one rifle fired.
"Eighth Route? Even if you are on the 9th Route, you can't live alone today." A voice yelled arrogantly.
The bullet hit the roadbed next to Captain Xiao, raising a cloud of dust and leaving a clear bullet mark.
Captain Xiao looked embarrassed. He didn't expect to be ambushed in the base area.
The soldier acting as an observer spoke calmly: "The enemy is on the left side of the road, thirty meters away, with twelve rifles, two shell guns, and two more guns that cannot be heard. There are also people on the right side of the road, the number of which is unknown..."
Liu Yuanqing lay down in the ditch, raised his gun, and looked all over the sorghum field. He couldn't find the target at all: "Wen Wuquan, hit them with a grenade for reconnaissance!"
It's fun to ambush the Japanese, but it's not so easy to be ambushed.
Since you can't see the enemy's position, you can only learn from the enemy's fire reconnaissance.
The large troops at the back were not far apart. Those guys on the opposite side definitely didn't send anyone to inquire about the situation, thinking that they only had a dozen or so people.
Tom...
A grenade flew into the air.
boom...
Loud noises echoed in the sorghum fields.
"Liu Yuanqing, you prodigal son! You used a big weapon to fight these bandits!" Li Laosan next to him yelled.
"You know nothing. If you don't give them some eye drops, they won't be able to use their tricks. Do you really think that our Eighth Route Army is easy to bully?" After Liu Yuanqing finished speaking, he raised his gun and fired a shot in the distance.
Captain Xiao had a sullen face and the grenades were hard to find. The guys in the guard camp were really prodigal. They didn't even see the target before they started shooting randomly.
Seeing Wen Wuquan pull out a grenade again, Li Laosan next to him was not happy: "If you dare to fire another grenade, I will let you be a heavy soldier in the future..."
Wenwuquan smiled and put the grenade back into his backpack.
The traffic officer next to him suddenly said: "I think it's probably those guys from the Second Brigade pretending to be gangsters, and their purpose is to get the guns in our hands.
Li Laosan nodded and said, "That makes sense. Nowadays, a gun can be sold for a hundred yuan."
"The base area cannot be exposed, we'd better take a detour!" The correspondent looked at the sorghum fields to the east with a look of helplessness.
Captain Xiao shook his head: "If we are the people from the Second Brigade, we can still give them some face. These wandering bandits can just kill them and use the guns in their hands to arm a platoon of militiamen!"
The people hiding in the ditch on the roadside seemed not to care about the sound of bullets whizzing by above their heads.
The reason is simple. If you are attacked head-on, there will naturally be people from the team following you who will outflank you from both wings.
However, the feeling of being ambushed is not pleasant.
He could only be beaten, and the grenade he fired in return only made a sound and had no effect at all.
Liu Yuanqing suddenly said: "One group will cover, the others will retreat..."
"Can't we just wait?"
"Why wait for them? Let's do it ourselves!"
Since the ninth battalion came to Liu Yuanqing and Yang Chengzhi, two monsters from the former military police regiment, their fighting methods have also undergone great changes.
The basic class is divided into three three-person groups, with a squad leader and a deputy class of eleven people.
The main reason for this subdivision is that the weapons and equipment are good, unlike the general Eighth Route Army that charges in groups after three shots.
distance at this time
Some people died, but not completely...
