Earlier, when the member of the Northwestern Army's sword team chopped off the head of the Japanese sentry, the blood spurted onto the bonfire, and the fire was dimmed. At this time, Shang Zhen in the distance felt something in his heart.
How could this hill be the place where Shang Zhen and the others stayed for a long time?
Shang Zhen speculated that the 29th Army would launch an attack on the Japanese army later in the night, so he and Er Jiazi squinted for a while in the first half of the night. After midnight, they all got up and stared into the distance.
The night is so dark. If he doesn't look where there are lights, what can Shang Zhen see?
However, he happened to have a telescope in his hand.
He did not notice that his own men chopped off the heads of the Japanese soldiers, but he captured the changes in the light of the bonfire.
And just when he gathered his energy to observe again, he heard the sound of gunshots.
Why are you hesitating? Shang Zhen took Erhanzi and Xiaodustpan to climb down from the top of the mountain along the rope.
It's just that in the situation of the three of them, they couldn't get up fast even if they wanted to.
There is still only one rope, and they can only go down one person at a time.
They carefully descended from the top of the mountain to the lower half of the hillside. There were still rocks on the lower half of the hillside, so they still had to be careful.
So when Shang Zhen and the others came to the foot of the mountain and turned around, they saw that five bonfires were lit at the Japanese medical point nearest to them.
There is no doubt that the Japanese troops here were also alerted.
But what made Shang Zhen gratified was that the Japanese army's flares were never fired, and then he realized that the Japanese troops who were not firing the flares were also attacked by the 29th Army, right?
At this time, Shang Zhen and the others who came down from the mountain finally felt like a bird coming out of its cage.
No matter who stays on the top of this mountain for two days, it will be uncomfortable.
However, when they came down from the mountain at this time, they did not immediately run to the place where the gunshots were heard. Instead, they cautiously went to the temporary medical point of the Japanese army.
We must never forget to fight against the Japanese. Since the 29th Army is fighting lively over there, the three of them also want to do their best.
They did not expect to kill many Japanese soldiers, but they only wanted to cause more chaos to the Japanese army.
The natural way to cause trouble was to throw grenades, and Meng Laowai gave them two grenades.
Shang Zhen was not greedy. Even if the two blind grenades could kill four or five Japanese soldiers, he would be satisfied.
Don't underestimate these four or five Japanese troops. If the two armies are fighting and want to eliminate these four or five Japanese troops just by relying on the Japanese's marksmanship, then the Chinese army will have to pay a dozen or more casualties.
Moreover, Shang Zhen has already thought about how many shots he can take if necessary.
Moreover, you can't use rifles for shooting, you can only use flower traps.
After all, the firing sound of a flower machine is different from that of a rifle. If your flower machine goes off, maybe your own people will hear the gunfire and come looking for you!
Perhaps the Japanese army learned a lesson from Shang Zhen who threw a grenade to blow up the tent last time, but this time they lit five bonfires around the medical point.
Logically speaking, it would be enough to light one pile in one of the four directions: southeast, northwest, and northwest. However, the Japanese army lit two piles in this direction of the hill.
It seems that the Japanese army was frightened by Shang Zhen and Er Chengzi last time!
Now that there are two fires lit in the place closest to Shang Zhen and the others, Shang Zhen and the others will naturally not go directly, they can only choose to take a roundabout way.
Shang Zhen didn't look at the fires.
He had already observed when he was on the mountain that there was no one around the fire. Only when the fire was almost extinguished did the Japanese soldiers come to add fuel to the fire.
But now that the war has begun, the Japanese army will certainly not hide in the light of the fire. They must be hiding in the darkness where the firelight cannot reach.
At this point, the psychology of both the enemy and us is the same. They are both hiding in the darkness, observing the darkness on the opposite side, trying to find the enemy.
When he was still sixty or seventy meters away from the Japanese army's medical point, Shang Zhen signaled Xiaodustpan and Erhanzi to stop, and he began to carefully observe the Japanese army's tents.
It is impossible for the Japanese troops here not to be awakened by the movement at the other end of the barracks.
The Japanese troops here must also be on high alert. Shang Zhen doesn't want to hit the muzzle of the Japanese army's guns!
But the Japanese army's tent here also occupies a large area. How far can the fire shine? Except for the fire and its surroundings, all Shang Zhen saw was still darkness.
"Climb over!" Shang Zhen whispered.
Regarding Shang Zhen's words, Erhanzi and Xiaodustpan naturally followed his orders.
Although the three of them are now considered veterans, they have never fought such a battle in the dark.
Shang Zhen also understood that his military experience was limited. At this time, he was just causing trouble for the Japanese army's sneak attack. He thought this time was to accumulate combat experience for himself.
After crawling forward for more than twenty meters, Shang Zhen stopped again. After making sure that there was no one next to the fire, he stopped looking at the fire, not even a glance!
Has Shang Zhen ever touched a whistle before?
He did this based on basic common sense in life.
When people stare at bright light and then look into darkness, their vision will be affected. When the eyes adapt to the darkness, it is easier to find people and objects in the darkness.
However, after watching for a while, Shang Zhen felt that he had adapted to the darkness, but still found nothing.
However, even through simple empathy, Shang Zhen knew that since the Japanese army was able to light the fire here, they must have placed sentries here.
What should we do?
Shang Zhen immediately thought of four words - throwing stones to ask for directions.
Not only is the Chinese culture vast and profound, but you have never read a book, as long as you can speak Chinese and listen to Chinese, many allusions will pop up when the occasion arises!
But where can we find stones in this icy and snowy place? Even if it can be found, it is still unclear whether it can be picked out by hand!
As soon as he thought of this, Shang Zhen touched his pocket.
At this time, he touched something hard and bigger than his fist. It was a frozen steamed bun. It was brought to them by Meng Laowai. Shang Zhen did not eat all the leftovers.
But Shang Zhen would never use this steamed bun to ask questions.
Who knows what will happen next, it’s better to keep this steamed bun. In the end, Shang Zhen, who had no choice but to take out a bullet, threw it hard into the darkness ahead.
Just with that "click" sound, Shang Zhen actually saw a dark shadow moving vaguely in the darkness. Needless to say, it was the Japanese sentry.
The Japanese army is the Japanese army. The attack on China is now in full swing. How can their sentinels lie on the frozen ground and "burn their bellies" like Shang Zhen and others? So people naturally stand.
How should I kill him? Shang Zhen started thinking again.
Only now did he realize that it was too difficult to kill this kind of fixed sentry of the Japanese army silently!
He racked his brains and began to think of ways to use it, flying knives? Darts? Bow and arrow? crossbow? slingshot? Perhaps all these methods would work, but water from afar could not quench the thirst for nearness, and besides, he had neither the equipment nor the time now.
So what should I do? Do you just crawl over like this? The enemy's life is his own life. To the enemy, he is his enemy. It is so difficult for enemies to want to take each other's lives!
If this doesn't work, it doesn't matter if it's windy or snowy, at least I can make some noise to protect myself! Shang Zhen sighed in his heart but was unable to do anything.
But unexpectedly, the opportunity to kill the enemy came much faster than he imagined. Just when he was racking his brains to think, he suddenly heard the sound of gunshots coming from the front.
The gunfire was very close, and it was obvious that it came from around the temporary Japanese medical point, not from the Japanese military camp four or five miles away.
And in the midst of the gunshots, Shang Zhen suddenly heard the familiar "he, he, he" sound of the machine shooting continuously!
Oops, his people are here, Shang Zhen is overjoyed!
