The Japanese army was still firing flares at the other end of the hill, and the flares started firing as soon as they landed.
So this side of the hill is really as bright as day.
Let’s call the place where the flares were fired the base camp of the Japanese army.
At the Japanese base camp, they didn't know the fighting situation on the other side of the hill. They only knew that there were their people on this side, and the gunshots were always ringing. So how could they not give light to their own people?
But is this really the case?
Under the illumination of the flare, Chutian, Meng Laowai, and Erdan were lying on the ground, shooting one after another into the distance, especially Chutian who grinned every time he fired.
This is because he has never shot a rifle before.
If this person who has never shot a rifle suddenly shoots with a rifle, the recoil of the butt will cause pain in his shoulder as soon as the gun goes off.
Chu Tian didn't know at first that the butt of the gun needed to be pressed tightly against the shoulder socket.
He also knew that there was recoil when shooting a rifle. In his subconscious mind, he felt that if he didn't press his shoulders too tightly, wouldn't there be a buffer? Wouldn't that save your shoulders from pain?
How could he know? He was so excited that he wanted to screw him!
It wasn't until he screamed in pain from the recoil of the gun butt after two shots that Meng Laowai asked that he used the correct posture.
But it was too late, the two previous shots had already swollen Chu Tian's shoulders.
Even so, the three of them were shooting with great vigor, but did they really have any goals? No! Now they are using gunfire to lure the Japanese army's flares!
But under the hill, Shang Zhen and his group had all arrived. At this time, they were searching for bullets and grenades from the Japanese soldiers!
Even now, Shang Zhen didn't ask himself why these people came up.
No need to ask.
It must be Erhanzi and Qiu Bo who ran back. When Wang Laomao and the others saw that only two of them came back, Shang Zhen came for reinforcements before they came back.
But actually? But that's not the case at all.
Not long after Shang Zhen and the others left, Qian Chuan'er, Qin Chuan and the others raised the idea. How could we let the three of them go to fight the Japanese? Even if we didn't come forward to join forces, we would still need to support them, right?
This reason was so good that Mr. Wang thought about it and took them all out!
While Shang Zhen was fighting with the Japanese troops on the hill, Hou Kanshan took advantage of the flare to go out and reached down the mountain.
That's why he was able to find a Japanese soldier's body, put on Japanese clothes for himself, and shot at the Japanese soldiers from the closest distance.
At this time, Shang Zhen and the others were overjoyed. This was a great victory that their group had never achieved. They made a rough count when cleaning the battlefield and found that more than fifty Japanese soldiers had been killed!
And all this depends not only on Shang Zhen's night attack, but also on the fact that they dropped air burst bombs when the Japanese troops gathered together!
"Stop shooting, retreat!" Wang Laomao shouted.
So, the three people who fired the shots ran back, and Shang Zhen and all of them also ran back with bullet boxes and grenades that clanged against their shoulders.
"Boom!" The Japanese army in the distance fired another flare.
When the flare illuminated the area near the hill again, there was no more gunfire, but only Japanese soldiers lying dead on the ground in various postures. And just where the flare could barely shine were Chinese soldiers. Their retreating figures.
It’s naturally late at night after all the fussing.
The Japanese army was obviously afraid of the night battle. There was no gunfire at this end of the hill, so the Japanese army stopped firing flares at this end.
Soon, it was dawn in just over two hours, and by this time Shang Zhen and the others were already hiding in a bush.
They stayed up all night, and it was impossible to say they were not tired or sleepy.
But as the saying goes, no matter how great the achievements are, it is a thing of the past, and now they need to go back.
Now Shang Zhen is observing the mountain pass with his telescope.
Of course, Shang Zhen would not lead people to rush there rashly. Who knows if there are Japanese troops there.
Rocks, woods, and shrubs flashed through the telescope. What he was thinking about now was, if there were still Japanese troops at the mountain pass, where would those Japanese troops be hiding?
Although they had a lively fight on the hill last night, who can guarantee that the Japanese troops at the mountain pass will definitely go there for reinforcements?
After analysis, Shang Zhen and Wang Laomao believed that since the Japanese army could not defeat the main position and flank positions, they could not rule out the possibility of attacking from here.
Because Yamaguchi is very important to the Japanese army, it is reasonable for them to put people to guard it.
Of course there wouldn't be too many Japanese troops guarding the mountain pass, but even if they weren't many, Shang Zhen felt that there should be more than them.
And if our group fights the Japanese army face to face with gongs and drums, they will definitely not be able to take advantage.
Even though Shang Zhen is uneducated, he has now concluded that fighting the Japanese requires skill, such as night raids, and looking for opportunities when the Japanese army moves.
For this reason, he used an analogy when explaining this truth to people like himself.
He said, you have all seen country people picking up grain in autumn, right?
Everyone said that of course they had seen it before.
The so-called grain picking means that when crops such as corn, soybeans and wheat are harvested in the fall, ordinary people go out to pick grain. They pick up some ears of wheat here and some beans and spinach in that area. If the big family is not paying attention, they will go there secretly. If you pick up a handful in the field, you can pick up a lot of them in a day.
Shang Zhen said, we are the ones collecting food. There are only a few of us, so we can eat just a little bit, but we can’t go to other people’s houses and rob them openly! That's going to get a beating!
Shang Zhen's metaphor was so vivid that most people understood it, but Chu Tian was the only one who felt that this style of play was too petty.
Just because Chu Tian's family is from the city and he is also from Shenyang, in other words he is a city soldier, everyone guesses that his family background should be quite good.
However, when it comes to how to fight, it is not Chutian's turn to speak.
What he said at the beginning about going to the forefront has become his "stain", and he has to listen even if the youngest Dustpan says it to him.
"I don't know how many little Japs our leader killed last night. Look at the blood all over his body." Qian Chuan'er, lying not far away in the morning light, whispered.
"He got out from under the corpse of the little Japanese," said Hou Wangshan, who was lying with Qian Chuan'er.
Last night, Hou Kanshan got under the nose of the Japanese army. He happened to encounter the dead body of a Japanese soldier and disguised himself as a Japanese soldier.
When the flare was fired, he was the person closest to Shang Zhen, so he knew the situation at that time.
Everyone was busy last night, so naturally no one cared to look at Shang Zhen's appearance.
But now that it's dawn, the blood stains on Shang Zhen's body are scattered in patches, which looks very dazzling.
"Find him a girl later and let him take a good bath." Qian Chuan'er added.
This time Hou Kanshan did not answer the call.
But when Hou Kanshanyi didn't speak, Qian Chuaner realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
You can't mention bitches in front of this dead monkey, this guy will be sad if you mention bitches!
Both of them were silent, but at this moment, Shang Zhen suddenly spoke: "Everyone pay attention. If you don't see the woods in front of you, aim your guns! The platoon leader and Lao Ma are in trouble. Got it!"
