Beichen Shishiro inspected several discovered tunnel entrances and found that the entrances to these tunnel entrances were very cleverly designed. It would be difficult to detect them without using the current destructive and violent methods.
"Farmer's wisdom", Kitami Shiichiro commented, and found it interesting again.
In fact, the Japanese and puppet troops who are wreaking havoc in Zhangzhuang now have a treasure-hunting mentality, and finding tunnel entrances has become their fun.
Anyway, as long as they don't risk going in, those people hiding in the tunnel will not cause harm to them.
What bothers them now is how to dig out these people hiding in the tunnels. The Japanese and puppet soldiers are also very imaginative. The Eight Immortals cross the sea and each show their abilities. Fire attack, smoke, and bombing with grenades. A group of smart people just go along with it. It was a great time walking along the tunnel towards the large-scale construction project and directing the puppet troops to dig.
A few Japanese engineers carried a water pump and passed in front of Beichen Shiichiro. He stopped and asked, "What are you carrying the water pump for?"
An engineer stood at attention and replied: "We found a tunnel entrance, not far from the well. We plan to pump water from the well to drink out the people hiding in the tunnel."
Beichen Shishiro laughed loudly: "What a great idea. Take me to see it."
"Hi", several engineers carried the water pump and led Bei Chen Shiyilang to the yard of a grain store on the roadside.
The grain store has been set ablaze by the Japanese and is still burning, and the warehouse house behind the courtyard wall has been reduced to rubble by tanks.
The tunnel entrance that the Japanese discovered was in the stable of the grain store. It was originally the location of the manger. The manger was pushed down and the tunnel entrance was exposed.
Beichen Shishiro walked to the entrance of the tunnel, looked down, and asked, "Are you sure there is someone down here?"
Several Japs guarding the entrance of the tunnel nodded: "Make sure. When we entered this yard, someone was hiding here and shot at us. Second Lieutenant Shigeo Oshima was hit by him and is rescuing him."
The corners of Beichen Shishiro's mouth twitched slightly. Another officer was sneak-attacked. So far, it seemed that four or five officers had been shot inexplicably.
"Drink him out, don't kill him, I want to interrogate him personally." Beichen Shishiro ordered.
Although the Japanese have discovered many tunnels in Zhangzhuang so far, Beichen Shiyilang has not realized that these tunnels are connected to each other. He thinks that the tunnels under these tunnels are independent, just like many tunnels. It's like the vegetable cellar that everyone has, with a larger space inside for hiding people.
The engineers were busy setting up the water pump, extending two water pipes, one into the tunnel entrance and the other into the well. They started the water pump, and a steady stream of water was drawn out of the well and poured into the tunnel.
Beichen Shishiro watched with interest for a while, knowing that it would take a while for the water to be filled up. He nodded and praised the engineers a few words, then walked to the stone grinding plate in the courtyard and planned to sit here for a while and wait for the tunnel to be filled. people were poured out of the water.
As a result, he had just taken two steps when a crisp gunshot suddenly came from the direction of Shi Nianpan. A captain next to Beichen Shishiro was directly hit in the head, and blood spurted out on Beichen Shishiro's face.
Beichen Shishiro was startled and hurriedly took out his weapon to fight back. The Japanese around him also opened fire, sending sparks flying from the stone grinder.
It is normal to have a stone grinding plate in the courtyard of a grain store. Didn’t you see that the livestock track next to the stone grinding plate has been trampled down? Who would have thought that there are people hiding under that big grinding plate.
The Japanese quickly surrounded the stone grinding plate, and two grenades were thrown under the stone grinding plate. The stone grinding plate collapsed with two bangs, and the stone rollers on the grinding plate rolled down and rolled away.
The Japanese rushed over and fired a series of shots at the collapsed grinding plate. Several people worked together to lift the grinding plate and set it aside.
With a loud bang, the mill plate fell over, revealing a dark tunnel entrance under the mill plate, but no one was anywhere.
Beichen Shishiro wiped off the blood splattered on his face, furiously pulled out two grenades from a Japanese soldier beside him and threw them into the tunnel.
The Japanese captain who was killed was the younger brother of Beichen Shishiro. He was originally stationed at Yanmen Pass. The two brothers rarely got together because of this operation. As a result, his younger brother died in front of him after being reunited for only a few days.
The tunnel entrance under the rolling plate was directly destroyed by these two grenades. Beichen Shishiro was still furious and ordered his subordinates: "dig him out for me, I will cut him into pieces."
In the underground passage, a soldier excitedly ran to Xie Tian who was patrolling to claim credit: "Commander, I killed a Japanese official."
Xie Tian smiled and patted the soldier on the shoulder: "Well done, your name is Cai Xiaobao, right? Tell me, how big of an officer are you capable of killing the Japanese?"
Hearing Xie Tian call out his name, Cai Xiaobao excitedly pointed to his shoulder and said, "Here is a yellow bar and three stars."
Xie Tian patted Cai Xiaobao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Hey, you are really not young. You are a Japanese captain. Keep working hard and you will be promoted to squad leader by such a powerful man."
Cai Xiaobao nodded repeatedly: "Teacher, just take a look. There were several Japanese high-ranking officials outside just now. I saw that only one shoulder had more stars, so I beat him. There were several others with stars beside him. But those few stars are not as many as his, but he has one more yellow bar than him..."
Xie Tian, who had a black hair on his head, grabbed Cai Xiaobao's neck while he was still talking. He raised his fingers and hit him hard on the forehead several times without any politeness. Go ahead and hit the captain, this is a real-life version of accidentally hitting the passenger car, I’m so angry.”
Tiedan laughed so hard on the side that he stamped his feet: "Oh my god, Cai Xiaobao, you are such a damn talent. Do you know that the yellow bar is worth more than the stars? One major is worth several captains."
"Ah?" Cai Xiaobao was dumbfounded. He rubbed his head that was so painful from Xie Tian's knock and turned around and ran back: "After all, there was a guy with two bars and two stars next to the captain just now..."
Xie Tian hurriedly stopped Cai Xiaobao: "You fucking stop here, you will die if you run back now. I give you a task to convey your glorious deeds to every class, so that everyone will remember it. How are the military ranks of Japanese soldiers distinguished?"
Cai Xiaobao had a dark line. The commander's order was too harsh. This time he was so embarrassed that everyone knew about it.
In fact, to be honest, it is difficult for people who are not familiar with them to distinguish the military rank of the little devil from the epaulettes. At first glance, the little devil's epaulettes are almost the same. There is almost no difference between the sergeant's and the lieutenant's, and there is not much difference between the lieutenant's and the assistant officer's. It's big, it's all red and yellow bars and stars, so it's easy to get confused.
Only the difference between the armbands is more obvious. There is a bar on the top and a star on the bottom.
The Japanese refer to ranks as classes, and classes represent status levels.
It's just that Cai Xiaobao's shot was so accurate for nothing, otherwise Beichen Shiyilang's journey to Zhangzhuang would have ended here.
