The crescent moon climbed higher and higher, and the people in the desolate county town began to neigh.
The watchman on night watch stood against the wall, staring blankly at the Eighth Route Army coming in from the city gate.
An Eighth Route Army soldier with a kind attitude explained to the watchman, who was holding a gong in one hand and a mallet in the other: "We are the Eighth Route Army, and we are here to liberate you!"
Immediately, the Eighth Route Army troops entering the city began to disperse into the streets and alleys.
The watchman was stunned for a long time, and suddenly thought of his duty. After the imperial army came and drove away those corrupt officials, it can be said that he was very kind to him.
Although the imperial army also killed many people who were ignorant of current affairs, it was those guys who did not understand the principle of one emperor and one minister.
Before the Manchus entered the customs, didn't everyone grow their pigtails and live as obedient people for hundreds of years?
Thinking of this, the watchman quickly slipped into a small alley where Eighth Road had just passed.
He bravely banged the gong in his hand and shouted at the top of his lungs: "No, the Eighth Route Army has entered the city."
Nearby residents heard the rapid sound of the gong and carefully discerned the watchman's shouts.
The first reaction of the residents was to get up and go to the yard to bolt the gate of the yard. Then they went out with their families and piled movable tables, stools, millstones, etc. behind the gate.
Carrying a kitchen knife and looking for a wooden stick, he prepared to fight to the death with those who tried to disrupt the security of the county town.
Most people don't believe in the Eighth Route Army at all, because even if the Eighth Route Army can capture the county seat, it can't hold it just like Li Zicheng!
When the imperial army comes back, he will still be the unlucky one.
The watchman's shouting immediately caused the dogs to bark. No one expected that the sound of dogs barking was even louder than the sound of the gong in the watchman's hand.
The watchman's warning sound was instantly drowned out by the barking of dogs.
The watchman hurriedly climbed over the wall and hid in a small courtyard in the alley. It was obvious that he was quite familiar with the owner of the courtyard.
"Damn it, why are you banging the gong in the middle of the night?" came the familiar voice of Widow Wang from inside the room.
There is another small courtyard not far away.
A detective team member who boldly climbed up the wall looked at the crowd of people flowing towards the county government in the distance. After hesitating for a while, he finally made up his mind to warn.
He climbed up the roof along the courtyard wall, quickly jumped to the roof of the house next to him, took out his shell gun and shot the Eighth Route Army troop who was walking away in the back.
"boom"
The maintenance government was separated by a wall from the military barracks located in the city's school grounds.
Shots fired in the middle of the night in the county town happen from time to time.
The puppet soldiers who were taking turns in the military camp heard the sound of gunshots in the distance, got up quickly, yawned, and went up to the wall as usual in daily training to seize the high point.
At the county police headquarters, the commander who stayed behind was stunned for a moment, and immediately ordered the telephone soldier next to him: "Call and ask if there is anything unusual about the city gate defenders."
After giving the order, he turned to the guard standing at the door and said, "Go and see what's going on."
Then he once again ordered the Japanese soldiers stationed opposite the county government to go to sleep, strengthen the defense of the military camp, and a group of Japanese soldiers went to the county government compound to increase defense.
In a courtyard in an alley to the west of the county square, a row of Eighth Route Army soldiers stood quietly.
The soldiers were arranging wet towels, and some of them even had gas masks hanging on their chests!
"Are you all ready?" the deputy director asked.
"Please don't worry, chief!" The leading commando captain lowered his voice and excitedly raised his hands and saluted with a flat chest.
"Remember, there may be gas bombs in the enemy's armory. No one is allowed to throw grenades into the enemy's armory!"
"Promise to complete the mission!"
When the team left, Wang Xiaosan, who was standing at the door of the yard, warned: "If you encounter a Japanese enemy using poisonous gas, don't panic. The poisonous gas may not kill you immediately, and you can't mess with your feet first."
The commandos all nodded in thanks.
No one explained to Wang Xiaosan, because they all had personal experience and knew the power of the Japanese poisonous gas.
Battalion Commander Hu's security battalion suffered over 200 injuries due to poison gas bombs fired by Japanese soldiers. The platoon leader of the security battalion in front of him may not have known what happened during the day, so I don't blame him for this.
There was no one living in the yard, and the traffic officer who stayed in the county had already inquired about it in advance.
The Eighth Route Army marched and fought in a disciplined manner and was not allowed to disturb the people. Now there are no people, so it is nothing to disturb.
Wang Xiaosan led a platoon with bayonets sheathed, rifles on their backs, one squad with submachine guns, and the other two squads all armed with box guns.
Commander Cheng has led his men to occupy the four city gates, and the main team is about to clear out the remaining Japanese and puppet enemies in the city.
We must maintain the county police force next to the government, the Japanese barracks stationed in the county town, the puppet army barracks in the city, and the traitors in the county detective team. They must all be eradicated.
The soldiers of the main regiment finally discovered that they had been active in attacking lone Japanese soldiers on the plains and ambushing Japanese and puppet army grain transport teams, which was not as satisfying as attacking the county town.
If it hadn't been for the chief's strict order not to take advantage of the masses, the soldiers might have already detected the traffic officers and seized all the foreign residences of officials in the county government!
Wang Xiaosan only has thirty-six soldiers under his command.
The intensity of firepower is no worse than that of the main commando group that concentrates its firepower.
According to the plan, naturally he would not compete with a kid with high shooting skills for long-range shooting.
Use automatic firepower to deal with the Japanese with precise shooting, and use your own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.
Following the commander's order, the assault on the Japanese army camp, which had gathered its troops, began.
Three groups of personnel quietly slipped out of the compound through the front and back doors and began to outflank the county government.
Unexpectedly, the enemy lying on the wall of the puppet army camp also used a shell gun.
They were scattered scattered, and there seemed to be not many of them. They occasionally appeared through the courtyard wall, and when they saw or heard any movement, they immediately started to disperse.
Obviously, it should be those traitorous dogs from the detective team.
The propaganda officer crouched down the wall and rushed to the front, holding a large iron loudspeaker in his hand: "Everyone in the military camp, listen, you have been surrounded. Put down your weapons immediately and come out to surrender. The Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially!"
A puppet soldier held a rifle in his left hand and a grenade in his right hand. He bit open the cover and pulled the rope, then threw the grenade towards the person who was calling.
The grenade was spinning in the air and flew through an alleyway, and then exploded with a loud bang when it landed on the ground!
There was a scream in the darkness, someone must have been shot.
A voice shouted: "Hit!"
Rifle bullets crackled against the wall, and the high-pitched bullets whizzed by.
The traitor and puppet soldiers quickly retracted their heads and looked at each other, but no one was hit.
It seems that there is no need to be afraid of Tubal Road at all.
A dozen puppet troops were drilling holes in the wall under the command of a Japanese instructor.
No one thought that with the invincible imperial army covering them, they would be surrounded by eight forces.
I didn't hear the bullets flying, so why did it feel like I was fighting a detective team? So far, none of the group has fired a single shot.
In this case, just open the shooting holes on site.
Moreover, the puppet troops took advantage of the high points of the wall, but found that they had no way to deal with those hiding in the darkness!
Because, taking the lead is the opponent's shooting target.
The right location is not as good as the right time!
Heshangzhai Village is named after a temple built in the Southern Dynasties at the entrance of the village.
"You pour lime water into them?" The old monk looked panicked: "The lime water will burn his mouth, stomach and intestines. If you do this, it will only speed up their death."
"Then what do you think we should do?" He Gensheng didn't like this bald donkey at all. If he hadn't fired the gun earlier, this bitch would have said that the wounded in the ninth battalion were not allowed to enter the temple in the pure land of Buddhism.
From dark until now, more than a dozen seriously injured people have died!
Not all of them died of injuries. Half of them couldn't bear the crazy itching and stinging after the poison gas penetrated their skin, and committed suicide in various ways!
Under normal circumstances, monks and Taoists who do not farm like to learn some medical skills.
The old monk looked at the tragic situation in front of him. His little medical skills could not do anything to deal with this "external evil invasion": "I think we can give them some detoxifying mint, bezoar, and yellow lotus."
He Gensheng turned to look at the old monk: "Get lost"
