There was a faint sound of gunfire from the south. Shang Zhen and others hid on the mound they occupied and looked south.
Under normal circumstances, they would be able to see houses there, which is Xiao Bengbu.
But now it can't be done. After days of fierce fighting, the walls and houses have collapsed. Not only has it become a piece of scorched earth, it has also become a ruin. Where are the tall buildings?
"I guess it was Uncle Wang and the others who made the noise. I don't know if they killed the Japs' mortars." Chu Tian guessed.
"We'll see if the little devil's cannon goes off in a while." Chen Hanwen replied.
Chen Hanwen's answer was undoubtedly reasonable, so the soldiers stopped talking and listened to the movements in the south.
The gunfire from the south was still ringing and mixed with explosions, but the Japanese mortars really didn't sound anymore. I guess Wang Laomao and the others succeeded.
The soldiers began to talk quietly again.
But at this time, Shi Xiaowan asked Ma Tianfang: "Brother Xiao Ma, do you think the Japanese know that their sentries here have been killed by us?"
"They don't necessarily know. They just hear the gunshots and know that there is a fighting here." Ma Tianfang guessed.
This is the fact, and Ma Tianfang's guess is reasonable.
"Then do you think we can pretend to be little devils and get closer?" Shi Xiaowan asked.
Although Shi Xiaowan's voice was not loud, he was still young, and his half-grown boy's voice was tight and tight. Naturally, it was easy for others to hear him clearly.
Shi Xiaowan's suggestion immediately shocked Bai Zhan!
This is really a crazy idea. Don’t let this job fall on you!
Dressing up as a Japanese soldier is not something you can do casually, as shown in later movies and TV dramas.
The reason is that the Japanese are really too short, while the Northeastern people are tallest among the Chinese.
Because of this, Shang Zhen would choose the short people in his team to dress up as Japanese soldiers, such as Xiao Dustpan, Hou Kanshan, He Xiangcai, and Fan Zuituan. As for him, he was the one who was dragged along, so Just like a field of wormwood, there is inevitably a tall one.
And now most of the people in Shang Zhen's team have been sent by Shang Zhen to kill the Japanese mortars. They are outnumbered by the small number of people, and if they pretend to be the Japanese army again, they will need to be pulled out. Too lazy.
Bai Zhan thought to himself that among the remaining people, he could only be considered a middle-class person, so wouldn't it fall on him to dress up as a Japanese devil?
Is this the mission? A narrow escape from death!
Bai Zhan buried his head lower. At this moment, he felt that he was the bird with his head stuck in the sand. He must not be noticed by others!
"Why are you still pretending to be a Japanese devil? It's okay to come here once in a while, but it will kill people if you do it too much!" At this time, Shang Zhen spoke.
Shang Zhen's words certainly made Shi Xiaowan show a regretful expression, but they also made Bai Zhan secretly let out a sigh of relief.
After Shang Zhen disagreed with Shi Xiaowan's proposal, he raised his box cannon.
Shang Zhen's action was indeed a bit strange.
From their current position, they could overlook a field road more than 200 meters ahead, and that field road was the only way between the small port and the village where the brigade headquarters was located.
However, there was gunfire from the other side of the village, and the soldiers didn't know if Shang Zhen saw the Japanese army with his binoculars. Anyway, they didn't.
So what does Shang Zhen do with the box cannon?
But at this moment, Shang Zhen suddenly pulled the trigger, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed diagonally in the air.
"Pah", "pah", "pah", Shang Zhen fired bursts, short bursts and bursts.
With the box gun's rate of fire, even though Shang Zhen's gun had twenty shots, he emptied the magazine in a matter of seconds.
All the soldiers looked at Shang Zhen in surprise. Naturally, they couldn't understand what Shang Zhen was doing.
At this time, Shang Zhen once again raised the telescope and looked towards the village. After observing for a moment, he held the telescope in one hand and fired several short bursts of fire into the air with the gun in the other.
"Okay, it's almost done. Let's pick the most suitable place for shooting. The kid has already returned from the other side of the village." Shang Zhen, who started observing with the telescope, suddenly said.
It was only then that the veterans figured out what Shang Zhen was up to.
It turned out that Shang Zhen wanted to create the illusion of the arrival of reinforcements from the Northeast Army, so the Japanese troops who were attacking the village would definitely withdraw if they were afraid of being cut off. However, they could just use the terrain here to attack from that field road. The Japanese troops who ran past carried out an ambush.
However, there is a premise here, that is, there will not be too many Japanese troops attacking the brigade headquarters.
Shang Zhen and the others did not know how many Japanese troops were attacking the brigade headquarters, but the intensity of the gunfire they heard on the flanks suggested that the number of Japanese troops should not be too large.
It's just that none of them guessed that Shang Zhen had other motives for doing this.
Shang Zhen really wanted to break the siege of the brigade headquarters, but since he had already led people to form a death squad to fight against the Japanese army, he didn't want to repeat the same tactics again.
How can I not get my shoes wet when I often walk along the river? Now he doesn't care how many Japanese troops are attacking the brigade headquarters, but he wants to use his gunshots to induce the Japanese troops attacking the brigade headquarters to allocate some troops again, and he himself can use the terrain to ambush the Japanese troops. This can be called breaking the Japanese army into pieces!
Shang Zhen didn't know if his judgment was right or not, but he looked at it for a while and then gave another order, and this time he gave the order in a loud voice and even with excitement: "The little Japanese should have withdrawn their troops. Everyone should spread out, and don’t set the target too high. If one person can kill three or two, that’s a profit!”
Upon hearing what Shang Zhen said, even though there were not many people in their group, they still let out an extremely excited "buzz" sound, and at the same time they spread out to find a suitable position to hide and shoot at the Japanese army.
They are now on a mound, and the field road ahead is the only way for the Japanese army to retreat.
Not to mention the road, the fields on both sides of the road are also open. They can shoot from a high position, and now is undoubtedly an opportunity to take advantage!
A few minutes later, the Japanese troops really showed up.
At this time, all the soldiers except Shang Zhen were sure that the Japanese troops who attacked the brigade headquarters had indeed retreated.
Even though the Japanese army had formed a long column on that field road, the Japanese army was still limping along. Those were the wounded of the Japanese army!
The closest distance between the hill where Shang Zhen and the others were located to the field road was about 200 meters, but when the Japanese army was still about 400 meters away from them, Shang Zhen's rifle rang first.
With the sound of his gunshot, although one Japanese soldier was shot and fell down on the field road, other Japanese soldiers also fired bullets at the mound where Shang Zhen and the others were.
For a moment, the mound where Shang Zhen and others were hiding was filled with the sound of "chirping" and "chirping" of bullets entering the soil, but so what, Shang Zhen and the others were not many people and they did not gather in groups, no matter how dense the bullets were. But it doesn't work.
"Did you see, the kid didn't use a machine gun, they started to charge forward!" Suddenly Ma Tianfang shouted, "Be careful, don't let the kid bite us again before they die!"
Ma Tianfang's left arm has been amputated. He can barely control the rifle with only his right arm, but if he can hit targets within a hundred meters, he is really helpless at any distance, so he can only do it to himself. His companions were encouraged.
What he shouted, don't let the little Japs bite us again before he dies, is undoubtedly a reminder to his companions, even if the Japs retreat, it is not something that we can't stop.
Just like what Shang Zhen just arranged, everyone can kill a few more Japanese soldiers, and don't risk your own life!
Now that Shang Zhen fired, others also started shooting.
They were very patient in shooting. After shooting once, they would change their shooting position no matter whether they hit or not.
There is no doubt that the Japanese army's marksmanship is very accurate, but no matter how accurate the Japanese army's marksmanship is, they still need to stop and shoot.
But at this moment, gunshots suddenly rang out again just to the north of the Japanese army. It was the security company guarding the brigade headquarters who also judged the situation at this end, and they also chased them out of the village.
As a result, the Japanese troops who had lost their fighting spirit retreated even more urgently. Just when they rushed to the position closest to the mound, the exchange of fire between the enemy and us finally reached the most intense level.
At this time, Shang Zhen had already thrown away the ordinary Type 38 rifle he had used before, and instead grabbed the sniper rifle.
The Japanese army was about 200 meters away from him. Oh, let alone, at this distance, the little Japanese rifle with a single-hole telescope was really useful!
In just five minutes, the Japanese army finally broke through Shang Zhen's blockade and withdrew towards Xiaobengbu. At this time, there were twenty or thirty more soldiers on the field road. I don't know whether they were dead or not, but they were all already dead. It was the Japanese soldiers lying there.
