Why did Shang Zhen lead people back when he heard the rustling footsteps?
Or because of that sentence, nine out of ten rooms are empty.
The common people have gone to escape the war, so when there are rustling footsteps early in the morning, it sounds like there are a lot of people. They are either the Japanese army or the Chinese army. Who knows who the other party is?
Shang Zhen was lying on the street at the entrance of the village, holding a flower machine in his hand and the butt of his gun on his shoulder, while the others hid behind the houses on both sides.
The fog is as invisible as water, covering people's eyes every day.
The flower mechanism in Shang Zhen's hand was as motionless as a mountain. He just waited quietly. It was impossible for Shang Zhen not to be nervous during this process, but he couldn't say how nervous he was.
Because Shang Zhen knew that the other party must be more nervous than himself, because the other party was active, while his group was stationary.
It only took a moment, but the footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Shang Zhen estimated that those people were only 20 meters away from him. At this time, he concluded that the other party must be the Japanese army.
The reason was that he heard the slight sound of soles hitting the stone slabs of the street at the entrance of the village. The Japanese army wore large-toe shoes with hard rubber heels on the back, while the Chinese army was well-supplied. For example, some troops of the Central Army also wore rubber shoes. Yes, but they are all soft-bottomed.
Shang Zhen looked at the white mist in front of him, and when he saw the khaki figure emerging from the mist due to the movement of people, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"He, he, he, he," Shang Zhen pulled the trigger without hesitation.
When the Japanese army on the opposite side didn't react at all, Shang Zhen had already emptied the magazine.
He hit so hard, it was as if he was beating the invisible weapon in front of him into a sieve!
And almost at the same time, there was a "swish" sound in the fog. It was the soldiers hiding behind the house throwing grenades and hand grenades.
The air waves and heat of the explosion temporarily avoided the white mist. The Japanese's screams that were completely different from those in China rang out. Shang Zhen and the others saw that a khaki figure had fallen in front of them.
"Go into the alley and get back!" Shang Zhen shouted loudly just as the explosion ended, and then he hid behind the house.
Shang Zhen can't figure out who is at the end.
Now that they want to retreat, the rear team becomes the front team, and the people in front become the leaders.
When the footsteps sounded, the movie was when the Japanese army started shooting at this end, but the Japanese army was put into battle and they made a surprise attack. Now it was still too late to shoot.
Shang Zhen's decision was correct.
They had to hide behind the house and go around the alley behind the house instead of running straight back from the street.
The street was completely transparent, a straight road with no obstruction at all. If they ran on that street, they would inevitably be injured by Japanese bullets.
Shang Zhen followed closely behind the person in front, but after running for a while, he suddenly stopped shouting: "Stop!"
What does it mean to stop when the order is followed? At Shang Zhen's "stop", everyone in front stopped in unison.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Wang asked puzzledly.
"We ambushed a lot of Japanese troops, right?" Shang Zhen said with some confusion.
"Yeah, I feel like it's the Japanese army." Mr. Wang replied.
Shang Zhenjing and Wang Laomao, who originally felt that something was wrong, said anxiously when reminded: "Everyone, be careful. Since it is the Japanese army, where are their top soldiers?"
Yes, since there is a Japanese army brigade, where are the top soldiers of the Japanese army brigade?
In such bad weather, when the Japanese army attacked, it was unlikely that there would be no leading soldiers, the so-called scouts, in front.
Of course, maybe the Japanese army had reconnoitred the terrain the day before and now took advantage of the heavy fog to launch a sneak attack.
But whether or not the Japanese army was taking care of this kind of thing is something we would rather believe than not.
Since there are unknown risks ahead, Shang Zhen must take countermeasures.
But before he could speak, another surprise occurred. At this time, Erhanzi asked in a low voice: "Has any of you seen the tiger pillar?"
"Huh?" Upon hearing what Erhanzi said, the others naturally started to count the number of people, and then they discovered that they were indeed missing two people now, one was Hu Zhuzizi and the other was Tietou.
This is undoubtedly a situation that Shang Zhen and the others do not want to see.
In this foggy situation with extremely low visibility and it is extremely difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, if these two people cannot be recalled in time, regardless of whether they are dead or alive, they may never see each other again in this life, Shang Zhen I cherish each of my brothers very much.
"When we were shooting at the Japs earlier, I heard gunshots on the other side of the road. The two of them must have run to the other side of the street because they thought there were too many people on this side." This is what Qiu Bo analyzed. .
Qiu Bo's analysis still makes sense.
At that time, Shang Zhen and others discovered that the Japanese troops were coming from the opposite side, so they all hid behind the corner of the house and beside the wall.
There were more than thirty people among them. How wide could the streets in a village be? Their military strength cannot be manipulated at all.
Seeing such weather, other people were worried about being separated from their own people, so they all hid together. However, Hongzhu and Tiedan ran to the opposite side because of this reason.
Of course, this will create cross firepower for the Japanese army, but once the war breaks out, people will easily get separated.
"These two tigers are really causing trouble when they play around!" Mr. Wang cursed in a low voice.
"Let's go back and leave the village first. Then, Qiu Bo and I are in front. Everyone, please be careful and don't make any noise under your feet." Shang Zhen spoke.
Now there are two missing people, but there is no way Shang Zhen can look for them with the Japanese army behind them.
If this battle turns into a chaos, it is conceivable that their losses will be huge! Shang Zhen would definitely not do anything like rescuing one person, two people, two people, or four people.
So, with Shang Zhen and Qiu Bo in front and others behind, they walked between the houses in the village.
But at this time, to their surprise, the Japanese army behind them made no movement.
The beating that Shang Zhen and the others received just now, even though it lasted less than two minutes. But based on the estimation of the dense footsteps of the Japanese troops and the powerful firepower output of these people, it is definitely not a problem for them to defeat dozens of Japanese troops.
So what if the Japanese army is stronger in combat effectiveness? Before the Japanese army could react and fight back, it was massacre.
Before the Japanese army could react, Shang Zhen and the others had already run away!
Shang Zhen and the others moved very slowly in the village, mainly because they were careful.
They were unexpectedly attacked by the Japanese army. Suddenly, the Japanese army did not dare to move forward. For them, the biggest threat now was the possible presence of the Japanese army.
"Uncle Wang." Little Dustpan, who was walking with Mr. Wang this time, suddenly whispered, "Did you notice? The little devil was ambushed by us but did not fire.
I think this means that there must be some top soldiers of the Japs in the village, and they are afraid of accidentally injuring one of their own. "
"Well, that makes sense." Old Mao Wang responded in a low voice. Now that he has entered a fighting state, Old Mao Wang will naturally not worry about whether Little Dustpan should call him Uncle Wang or Dad.
"Do you need to remind the company commander?" Xiao Dustpan asked again.
"No, he's more nagging than you." Mr. Wang replied.
