"What a prodigal!" Bai Zhan said as he threw the rifle from the bumpy carriage to the roadside.
He doesn't like guns. That's because he doesn't like to touch guns to save his life, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know how valuable each gun is.
"Stop talking nonsense, don't throw down the gun you're using!" Shang Zhen scolded Bai Zhan while throwing the gun under the car.
Of course Shang Zhen knew that Bai Zhan didn't like guns, but now he was acting coy here.
Since joining the army, Shang Zhen doesn't know how many guns he has given up. Some of them are even guns he cherishes, such as the flower machine.
However, a gun is a weapon, and after all, it is just a tool. If you can save your own life, there is nothing you can't give up.
"Do you really want to go through the village in front?" At this time, it was the old man driving the carriage who spoke.
"Huh?" Shang Zhen, who was throwing the gun down, looked up and his eyes lit up, even though all he saw was the back of the old man's head, "You mean you can go around somewhere else?"
"We can get around it, but our company commander doesn't have a telescope." The old man said slowly while still shaking the big whip.
"Then if you didn't tell me earlier, I would have almost thrown away all my guns!" Bai Zhan said angrily.
At this time, the old man shouted and drove the carriage off the road, and the direction he was driving was a pond on the roadside. Of course, according to the Northeasterners, it was called a puddle.
"Old man, you won't trick us, right? If the carriage gets stuck in the water -" Yu Zuolong expressed his worries.
"What good does it do me to soak the carriage in water so that you can kill me too?" the old man said dissatisfiedly without looking back.
"Humph, I'm sorry you don't dare!" Yu Zuolong said angrily.
Otherwise, Yu Zuolong's mind is a bit simpler, so Bai Zhan didn't ask this question.
Previously, Shang Zhen killed everyone at that intersection. The puppet soldiers must have been frightened by Shang Zhen's killing.
"Why do you want to help us? Don't say you just want to help us." At this time, Shang Zhen asked the old man instead.
"You are the only smart person!" the old man sighed while driving the carriage, and at this time he drove the carriage into the water bubbles.
The horseshoe wheel made a splash of water, and the originally clear water became turbid, and the water only reached half of the wooden wheel.
However, to Shang Zhen's and others' surprise, the horse did not struggle to pull them in the water, and the carriage did not sink much.
There is no doubt that this bubble has a hard bottom. The so-called hard bottom means that there is no mud under the water. Without mud, the carriage will naturally not sink in.
At this time, Shang Zhen asked: "You haven't said anything yet, why do you want to help us?"
"I don't want to help you, it's because my son is in the village ahead, and your shooting skills are so good, I don't want you to destroy my family." The old man sighed.
That's it, Shang Zhen understood.
It seems that the old man and his son are both puppet soldiers. The old man was afraid after seeing Shang Zhen's combat prowess.
As a father, he definitely doesn't care whether the Japanese or puppet troops can catch Shang Zhen and the others, but cares about the safety of his son. This is human nature.
"Tell me about the previous situation." Shang Zhen stopped worrying about why the old man was saving them and started asking again.
Since Shang Zhen also acted in a hurry, only now did he have time to understand the specific situation here.
"One company, three platoons, we are at the front, and one platoon is placed in each of the two villages behind. I can avoid this platoon, but I can't avoid the village behind. You should think of a way early." The old man Very conscious.
The old man's treacherous nature was once again explained by this old puppet soldier.
In fact, people are often like this. As people grow older, when their most critical interests are not involved, the boundaries between right and wrong are no longer so obvious.
And when faced with a decision, you will only choose the one that is most beneficial to you. At this age, you already know that in order to get something, you have to give up something.
The carriage continued to move forward, and Shang Zhen just stared at the village in front of him.
Bai Zhan didn't care about how to fight. Instead, he moved his butt forward on the carriage and approached the old man driving the carriage.
"I said, old man, how old are you?" Bai Zhan asked, looking at the old man's wrinkled face from the side.
"Forty-eight." The old man replied.
"Forty-eight, why are you so old? Tsk tsk tsk." Bai Zhan curled his lips at the side, "We also have a forty-eight guy, and they are really powerful. Not long ago, they found someone who is more than 20 years younger. Ladies, hey, you’re about to have a baby when you grow old!”
Bai Zhan thought he had spoken politely. Although he was a thief, he felt that he was different from those rude big-headed soldiers.
For example, if the people under Shang Zhen said such things, they would have to say to the old man, "Why are you so old?", which Bai Zhan would not say.
However, when he talked about Mr. Wang, he was too quick to control his words. This was not good. He was busy and turned to look at Shang Zhen, and then he saw that Shang Zhen's face had changed. .
It's broken, I owe you something, why am I talking about Mr. Wang? Bai Zhan immediately regretted it. Just when he was about to change his mind and talk about other topics, Shang Zhen had already said: "Don't go fast, the carriage is going at this speed."
Um? It turns out that Shang Zhen didn't change his face because of what he said. Bai Zhan woke up, and he followed Shang Zhen's gaze and looked forward.
What's ahead? A few hundred meters ahead was the village, which was what the old puppet soldier said. There was also a platoon of the puppet army in the village.
At this time, some people were marching out of the village entrance in front of them. Although they didn't have binoculars, looking at the way they formed a column, they must be puppet troops.
The intersection where they were located was only a few miles away from the village in front of them. It was impossible for the puppet soldiers in the village not to hear the previous gunshots.
Although they had rushed out of the intersection as quickly as possible, how could the puppet soldiers in the village not send someone to check when they heard gunfire from the direction of the intersection.
But at this time, the old puppet soldier driving the car said: "This is already too slow. The relationship between the two platoon leaders is not good. Otherwise, it would be better if we didn't collide with them."
Even so, it is estimated that the puppet soldiers coming out of the village should have seen them. No, not that they should have seen them.
Then both sides have eyes. Shang Zhen and the others can see each other, how can the other party not see them? It's just that the distance between the two parties is still far away, and the two parties just can't see details such as the color and appearance of their clothes clearly.
"Uncle, please sit back. Yu Zuolong, let's move forward to block him." Shang Zhen said.
The old man was wearing the clothes of the puppet army, while Shang Zhen and the others were in casual clothes. If the distance between the two parties was any closer, and the puppet soldiers could see that the person driving the carriage was one of their puppet soldiers, then they would really be in trouble.
At this time, in Bai Zhan's view, everything in the world was really like chess. Shang Zhen originally wanted to let this old puppet soldier lead the way, but now it seemed that it was no longer possible.
Although the puppet troops in the distance saw the carriage that got off the road halfway, it seemed that they had no doubts and continued towards the intersection ahead.
However, they could feel that the group of puppet soldiers who came out of the village were not walking very fast. It seemed that just as the old man of the puppet army said, the two puppet army platoon leaders had a grudge. Otherwise, what would happen to this group of puppet soldiers? Maybe just walk over slowly?
"What's the grudge between them and you two platoon leaders?" Seeing that everything was fine, Bai Zhan asked curiously.
"Because of a widow." The old puppet soldier replied.
"It's true that beauty is a disaster. This widow who is not a beauty can actually become a disaster, tsk tsk." Bai Zhan sighed and glanced meaningfully at the young woman who was sitting in the carriage and said.
