"The fighting in the north is quite lively!" Gu Man said while looking ahead, with a hint of frustration in his words.
The high hill in front is not completely dark, but there are a few weak firelights, but can they really be called firelights? That should be called a flame! The largest one is only about the size of a palm, and it becomes almost flirtatious when the wind blows.
They say light can drive away darkness, but that depends on how big the light is.
The little match seller struck a match, which brought short-term warmth and light, but in the end she did not drive away the darkness. In the end, she struck out the box of matches, but she still froze to death. street.
Therefore, there are only a few small flames on such a large hill, which really means nothing.
But at this time, there was a continuous sound of gunfire and explosions in the north. It seems that the Northeast Army has once again invaded the town of Xiaobengbu.
Gu Man also deliberately looked back. Although some light appeared in the north, the light did not last long.
Guman didn't know whether the Japanese grenades could fire off illumination bombs, but at least the Japanese mortars on this high hill didn't fire a single shot.
If grenade cans can fire illumination bombs, and mortars can also fire illumination bombs, then at least the illumination time of the illumination bombs fired by mortars should be longer. After all, mortar shells are larger and fly higher than grenades. Guman made A simple logical analysis.
Therefore, it cannot be said that he and Shang Zhen's group killed the Japanese mortar position, but at least they still kept an eye on the mortar position, which is also a credit in this battle.
However, in the battle just now, Gu Man only fired three shots in total, and these three shots were taken blindly. He felt that if his three shots could really hit a Japanese soldier, it would be as good as in the previous battle. The probability of firing a random shot in the dark and hitting a mouse that just emerged from a hole is too low! Low to almost zero.
After Gu Man finished saying this, he didn't get a response from Shang Zhen. He subconsciously turned his head, but he also saw the profile of Shang Zhen lying next to him.
They were originally hiding behind a broken wall, but just after the round of shooting, Shang Zhen asked him to crawl away from him.
Gu Man didn't ask, but he could guess that Shang Zhen was cautious for fear of retaliation from the Japanese army.
For this reason, Gu Man, who was still dissatisfied at the time, muttered, "Your lives are precious," and then he followed Shang Zhen and crawled away like a four-legged snake!
Now, although the surroundings were still dark, there was really light in the eastern sky. It was against the background of that light that Gu Man could see the outline of Shang Zhen.
Now Shang Zhen no longer uses the box cannon.
Although Gu Man didn't count them intentionally, he also knew that Shang Zhen should have shot almost all the remaining bullets he had.
Seeing that Shang Zhen still refused to say anything like a dull gourd, Gu Man finally said, "Why don't we attack the little Japanese's artillery position?"
He also understood now that Shang Zhen was a man of very few words. If he didn't ask questions, he would never say anything.
He was surprised, how could Shang Zhen's character be able to suppress their group of people.
It must be admitted that the so-called temper increases with promotion, and Northeastern people have a fiery personality. If an official has no temper, he will never be able to scare the tough soldiers below.
Maybe it's because Shang Zhen's ability is better than others.
When he thought of Shang Zhen's box of cannonballs just now, Gu Man started to oops in his heart.
Oops, Shang Zhen's box of cannons - oops, oops, Gu Man, who couldn't read a word, really didn't know how to describe Shang Zhen's skill with guns, so he could only oops.
"Attack Gaha?" Shang Zhen's words interrupted Gu Man's thoughts.
Sure enough, he almost pointed at his nose and asked Shang Zhen, but Shang Zhen finally answered.
"What the hell are you trying to do by attacking Gaha?" Gu Man didn't understand Shang Zhen's retort, and he was stunned.
If you attack it, you can occupy the Japanese artillery position and capture the Japanese mortars. The Northeast Army does not lack mortars, but it lacks mortar shells. Of course, the Japanese mortars may have different mouths than those of the Northeast Army. .
But what does that matter? They can definitely use Japanese artillery to hit Japanese artillery shells!
"You said earlier that there were more than a dozen Japanese, but they didn't even shoot at us.
That's the Japs' artillery above. The Japs' artillery probably doesn't have guns. It's a big credit to us that we snatched away the mortars. "Gu Man said like a barrage of firecrackers.
"That's all." Shang Zhen responded, "How can you get so much credit? How dare you guarantee that the kid doesn't have a gun? We just need to watch and don't let the kid fire. This guy is just fooling around. There will be casualties if you go up there.”
Gu Man remained silent, but that didn't mean he agreed with Shang Zhen's statement.
Now Gu Man admits that his views on people like Shang Zhen have changed.
He originally thought that Shang Zhen and the others would just run away and have no skills, so they looked down on others by borrowing the gun without returning it.
But now his view of Shang Zhen and the others has changed: Shang Zhen is still capable, and he is better at fighting Japanese enemies than himself, but when it comes to survival, they are also talented people!
The gunshots and explosions in the north of the town were closer. It seemed that the Northeast Army's counterattack was progressing smoothly.
While Gu Man was thinking, he suddenly felt that the light around him suddenly became stronger.
It was only the first light of dawn in the east, and it was far from dawn. Guman subconsciously turned around, and then he saw fire suddenly appearing in the town to the north!
Huh? What's going on in this town? It stands to reason that there aren’t many things to find in this little Bengbu now!
And at this moment, the gunfire from the north suddenly became more intense.
Previously, there were constant gunshots from the north. Although I couldn't hear a few, at least I could still hear the "chunk" of machine gunfire and the sound of rifle shooting. But this time, it was like popping beans!
It's no wonder, after seeing the light, both the enemy and ourselves can see people, Gu Man thought again.
But at this moment, Gu Man suddenly heard Shang Zhen whisper: "Get down!"
It has become instinct for soldiers to obey orders. If you have to freeze for a moment when you hear an order, you may die countless times.
Gu Man instinctively lay down and turned around to look forward. At the same time, he tightened his grip on the rifle in his hand and pressed the butt of the rifle firmly against his shoulders.
It was still dark ahead, but Gu Man didn't believe that Shang Zhen would call him for no reason.
He widened his eyes and looked forward, and at this glance, he finally found something different. There seemed to be a metallic luster just in front of the side.
But at this moment, Shang Zhen, who was lying next to him, whispered: "Don't shoot!"
What does it mean?
This time Gu Man was really stunned. The metallic luster was obviously the faint flash of the helmet on the head of the Japanese soldier. How could he not shoot?
But at this moment, the sound of gunshots and explosions just to the north suddenly stopped.
What does this situation look like? It's like many students are studying in the same classroom. They were talking buzzingly, but there will always be a moment when everyone suddenly stops talking, so there will be a moment in the classroom where there may not even be a second. The silence that arrived!
Gu Man also happened to arrive at the moment when the sound of gunfire subsided. Because of the silence, although he heard the sound from the side and in front, he also felt the sound of wind beside him, the kind of sound that occurs when a person suddenly makes a move. "Woo" sound.
That is--
"Get down." Shang Zhen beside him suddenly reached out and pressed him, and both of them lowered their heads.
Then there was an explosion.
At this moment, Gu Man was really confused. It must be a grenade. He knew that Shang Zhen had captured a grenade, but the delay of the grenade's explosion was too short!
Gu Man's thoughts were still slow. When he thought of this, the fragments of a grenade explosion had already hit the mound where they were hiding. There should be rubble in the mound, and there was a "dang" sound!
Why did this grenade explode as soon as it was thrown out? As a veteran, Gu Man thought, who would dare to use such a grenade? The explosion delay is so short, so if it is thrown out too late, it will not be a problem of biting the hand, but it will blow up the paws!
