"You loser!" Under the city wall, a man was handing a half-boxed cannon to another man.
What is a half-pull box gun? The so-called box refers to the barrel or magazine of the box gun. Without the magazine, wouldn’t the box gun become a half-pull box gun?
"There is nothing that cannot be given up in order to survive." Another person took the half-boxed cannon and hid it inside the khaki military uniform, but his attitude when he spoke was disapproving.
"I think so. I think you don't look like a soldier, you are as timid as a mouse!" The person handing the gun said mockingly.
But after he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful, so he added "hehe" again.
At this time, the third person besides the two people was angry when he saw the accusation. He was about to refute, but the man who took the gun said nonchalantly: "How dare you say that, a thief?" Me? This time you go ahead and explore the way!"
"Ah? Other things, hey, boss, I made a mistake, okay?" The man who handed the gun hurriedly apologized.
After that, the three of them stopped talking and hid at the base of the city wall looking ahead.
The Japanese army's flares were still firing, and the gunfire in front had become sparse, and these three people were Shang Zhen, Bai Zhan, and Yu Zuolong.
The three of them, Shang Zhen, are still dressed as Japanese soldiers, but they are different from before.
Just because Yu Zuolong and Bai Zhan had already carried the medical kits carried by the two Japanese soldiers before, and Shang Zhen put on a shirt with a red cross on the arm, so that they changed from ordinary Japanese soldiers. The soldiers became Japanese health corpsmen.
It's just that at this time, the three of them are hiding in a hidden place at the base of the city wall, but they can't move for the time being, because they have nowhere to go!
They came out from the Taiping Gate in the east of Nanjing City, but they were not allowed to go east, just because the front was in the direction where Battalion Commander Wen led his men to break out, and there were gunshots in that direction. They didn't want to fight, so the three of them had a small The body collided with a large group of Japanese soldiers and fought? What a joke!
They couldn't go north either, just because Shang Zhen and the others saw that Captain Lu and his group climbed down the rope from the wall to the north of them. It was estimated that Captain Lu and the others wouldn't be able to get out of trouble so easily. So what were they doing there? What's more, now the three of them were dressed as Japanese soldiers and were beaten to death by their own people!
They were not allowed to go south yet. The reason was that when Shang Zhen pretended to be a wounded Japanese soldier and gave directions to the Japanese soldiers who were chasing after him, he pointed south, and the Japanese soldiers followed his direction and chased south along the base of the city wall.
The three directions of southeast, northwest and northwest were no longer accessible. As for turning back to the city, it was even more impossible. In Northeastern terms, it took a lot of effort for them to rush out of the city in confusion. If you turn around and go back, what will happen to you?
So Shang Zhen's method was that the three of them walked a certain distance north along the base of the city wall and then hid on the spot. He wanted to wait for the Japanese army to stop firing flares in the sky so they could sneak out in the dark.
"In a moment, where are we going?" Seeing the Japanese army firing flares endlessly, Bai Zhan couldn't hold it in any longer.
"In a moment, go to a place where there are no Japanese." Shang Zhen replied.
"Nonsense! There are a lot of places where there are no Japs, but there are no roads. When can we get out?" Bai Zhan said angrily.
"Aren't you a thief? You can go to a common man's house and steal a pig, and you'll have something to eat. Let's go slowly, don't be in a hurry." Shang Zhen rarely responded to Bai Zhan in a long sentence.
We have been together for a while, and Shang Zhen already has a certain understanding of Bai Zhan. Bai Zhan is still different from Hou Kanshan before his temperament changed drastically.
It turns out that Hou Kanshan has a bad mouth, just like a bad guy who has nothing to do with him, but Bai Zhan is not the same. Bai Zhan is very talkative. According to Northeastern dialect, he is a bad talker. If something happens, it will be fine. He always talks to himself, even when he is alone.
"I -" Bai Zhan really didn't expect Shang Zhen to give such an answer, and for a moment he really didn't know how to answer the question.
Seeing that Bai Zhan was choking, Yu Zuolong said, "Yes, I think it's okay. You go to the village and steal the pig, and we'll drive away. When you're hungry, we'll cut off a piece of meat with a knife."
It just so happens that we still have the little devil's medicine box. After cutting it, we can put medicine on it and then drive away. "
Yu Zuolong himself is a person who rarely jokes, but this time he added a joke to Baizhan and found it interesting, so he started laughing as he spoke.
Bai Zhan was addicted to verbal sparring. Seeing that Yu Zuolong was teasing him, he was about to refute, but at this moment, the flare in the sky went out.
For some unknown reason, the Japanese army did not fire up the flares, but Shang Zhen already shouted: "Follow closely!"
Then Shang Zhen moved, but he jumped forward directly.
Except for life, everything is a joke. When Shang Zhen moved, Bai Zhan and Yu Zuolong rushed out. After all, Bai Zhan was a little faster than Yu Zuolong. After all, he was worthy of being a thief.
Shang Zhen had already observed the way ahead. A few hundred meters to the right was Taipingmen and the main road into Taipingmen. On that road, Japanese troops were still entering Nanjing city in a steady stream.
They still couldn't go to the south. The Japanese army that Shang Zhen had deliberately misled had not returned yet, so Shang Zhen could only take the two of them and run northwest.
"Quick, get to those houses before the light comes on!" Shang Zhen urged as he ran.
At this time, Shang Zhen, who was running, had already run as fast as he could.
Although it is completely dark here now, it is not the kind of darkness where one cannot see anything. After all, there are still flares rising in the city.
Even before, Shang Zhen heard an extremely fierce machine gun fire and Japanese artillery fire, and he didn't know which troops still refused to give up resistance.
Shang Zhen had previously observed the terrain and knew where it was flat and where there were obstacles. And with the dim light in the city, he was certainly not afraid of falling.
The three of them ran as hard as they could, with wind blowing under their feet. Zuolong even tripped over a ridge and almost fell down while running.
However, as they ran wildly, Shang Zhen, who was running at the front, finally saw the houses in the darkness only a few steps away from him, and then he heard a "boom" behind him. , even if he didn't look back, he knew it was the Japanese army setting off flares again.
"Get down!" Shang Zhen shouted, and at the same time he leaned forward and did a push-up. He also touched the earthen wall of the house.
There was light again between heaven and earth, and the flare finally lit up.
The Japanese troops in the distance were still rushing towards Nanjing City, and gunshots were still heard in Nanjing City. Three soldiers were lying on the ground in front of the dilapidated houses, panting violently.
Although it is not yet a combat situation, Shang Zhen will never rush forward with the flares. His idea is to use the gap between the Japanese flares to jump out and run to safety first. Let’s talk about the place!
After a while, the breathing of the three people finally subsided a little, and then the talkative Bai Zhan spoke again: "I don't know where the old man and his gang have gone, and they don't know how to help us!"
This Bai Zhan is the one behind the scenes. If Mr. Wang and the others were around, eight out of ten people would probably say that he "chews that tasteless fart!"
In this case, since they have been separated, they can naturally run out and count them one by one. Who dares to take over here?
Shang Zhen ignored Bai Zhan. He was about to order the two people behind him to hide first, but then they heard gunshots coming from the front. The sound of strafing also includes the "pop" and "pop" sounds of rifles!
"Captain Lu and the others are in front!" Shang Zhen judged at this moment.
