Chapter 7 Checkpoints

The crescent moon is curved and the stars are dotted. The mountains covered by night are peaceful and quiet.

At one o'clock in the morning, the Taohua Mountain Village was brightly lit, and people were waving torches to see off Gao Han and others who were about to set out.

In the middle of the yard, 20 warriors stood in two rows, and torches reflected their young faces, their eyes flashed with rays of tension, excitement, pride and perseverance.

These warriors are elite warriors selected from the parody, representing the parody to complete this arduous task. Looking at the people who saw off, they felt a strong sense of mission in their hearts.

Gao Han stood in front of the team and did not mobilize before the war. The leader’s lead was the best way to inspire morale.

With a relaxed smile on his face, he said to the people who saw him off: "Don't worry, after we come back this time, there will be nothing missing in our village."

Gao Han's relaxed expression and confident words greatly encouraged the morale of the soldiers who were about to go to the battle, and also gave great comfort to the people left behind in the village.

With the capture of the last battle, Feng Xiucai's expectations this time were higher. He said: "One of the boss, after going out this time, weapons, ammunition, food, and ocean cloth are the best. However, don't forget to bring back some medicine. It is best to bring back a few doctors, not only can you treat the wounded, but you can also see everyone in normal times."

Gao Han smiled and said, "Uncle Feng, don't worry!"

Wang Sanniang said: "One of the boss, this time I not only brought you scallions and bacon, but each of them also prepared 4 eggs for you to fill you up.

After going out this time, I brought more cloths to come back, make some new clothes for everyone, and bring some floral cloths and other things back, so I and Xiuqin are also two-pieces." Xiuqin is another woman in the village.

Gao Han smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will bring you some when I see rouge and water powder, and I will dress you up like a bride, and I will rarely kill those bachelors."

Gao Han's words caused laughter and the atmosphere became even more relaxed.

The team set off, and the people in the village watched their distant figures and refused to leave for a long time until the light of the torch they were swaying became weaker and weaker and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

There is a fork on the country road outside the mountain, leading to Taoyuan Town at one end and Qingxi Town at the other end. There is no one guarding it here. Not long ago, the Japanese army in Shoucheng County received a notice from their superiors asking them to cooperate with the capture of escaped prisoners of war. The Japanese garrison garrison was insufficient, so they handed over this task to the security army in the county. The security army sent a squad to establish a temporary checkpoint here, and came over every morning and retreated to the county town in the evening.

For the security army, those war uniforms were not lost in their hands, and they had no responsibility. They were just collaborating on inspections, and setting up checkpoints here was just a gesture and dealing with errands.

That morning, it was not until 10 o'clock that the puppet soldiers came here lazily. There were very few cars passing through here. They didn't even have roadblocks. They just sat on the side of the road and chatted. When they saw the visitor, they stood up and checked.

The squad leader of the puppet army saw that there were very few people passing by and felt very bored. He took out a few dice and said, "Erbazi, Lao Hu, Shunzi, come here to play for two."

The puppet army, known as Erbazi and Shunzi, was very happy and immediately came over. The older man, who was called Lao Hu, was a little reluctant. He muttered: "Squad leader, the money he just sent at the beginning of the month has been lost before he was sent home. Where can I still have money?"

Erbazi said, "Old Hu, don't install it. When you searched the Li family's grocery store last time, you stole the money from someone's box. Do you think I didn't see it?"

Lao Hu had a few big shots in his hands and liked to bet. But he felt that the squad leader and Erbazi and others colluded, and he lost every time he bet with them, but he was unwilling to be fooled again.

He shook his head vigorously and said, "My mother is in poor health, so she has to save money to go back to see her."

Seeing that Lao Hu was not taking the bait, the squad leader said to a big puppet army: "Li Erniu, come here."

Li Erniu was not good at gambling and was a little reluctant. He sat there without saying a word. The squad leader was anxious and stared at him and cursed, "What's wrong, I'm giving you a face, right? Come here for me!"

At this moment, a puppet army in charge of keeping watch discovered something. He was thinking about his toes, and looked at the awning for a while, shouting: "Squad leader, if there is a situation, a team came over there."

The squad leader of the puppet army stood up and looked towards the finger of the puppet army who was keeping watch. Sure enough, he saw a team coming, with the people holding weapons.

The puppet army squad leader became alert and said to his subordinates: "Prepare for battle."

The puppet soldiers all loaded bullets and looked vigilantly at the direction of the visitor.

Soon after, the team approached. Three Japanese soldiers led a team of puppet troops, escorting seven or eight national prisoners of war, and were walking towards this place.

The Japanese officer led by the army is considered to be more prominent among the Japanese army, which is generally not tall. If you pay attention to it, his trousers' legs are a little short. He is dressed in Gaohan.

Regarding the attack on the Liu family courtyard, Taohua Mountain was insufficient in personnel and weapons, so Gao Han formulated a plan to make a plan. In the last battle, they seized the uniforms of three Japanese and eleven puppet troops. He decided to use the uniforms of these Japanese and puppet troops to pretend to be people from the prisoner-of-war camp of the 63rd Regiment of the Japanese and puppet troops to form a commando to carry out the raid.

Due to the small number of military uniforms and weapons, Gao Han and others had 21 people in total, and 9 others did not have military uniforms. Gao Han asked them to wear their original ragged clothes and pretend to be captured prisoners.

In the notice received, the squad leader of the puppet army learned that some of the military uniforms of the Japanese and puppet army had been lost. When he saw this team, he was a little suspicious at first. However, they saw that the Japanese and puppet army were escorting prisoners of war from the national army. In addition, this area has always been safe, and believed that those prisoners of war who fled were too late to escape and would never dare to appear here in broad daylight. Therefore, they relaxed their vigilance.

However, he was still worried and asked his six Weijuns to stand a little farther away from both sides, holding guns to guard him. He and the remaining people stood there.

The puppet army was very afraid of the Japanese devils. Seeing the Japanese officer leading the team, the puppet army squad leader hurriedly came forward and saluted respectfully.

Gao Han raised his right hand and the team stopped. He whispered to the puppet army squad leader.

A guy wearing a black cloth jacket and a top hat standing behind him came forward and said, "Taijun asked you, who are you and what are you doing here?" This guy pretending to be a translator is Zhang Quan.

The squad leader of the puppet army said: "Report to Taijun, we are from the Shouyang County Public Security Brigade, and we are ordered to cooperate in investigating the escaped prisoners of war in the National Army."

Zhang Quan also said nonsense and translated the words of the puppet army squad leader. As for what he was saying, he couldn't even understand.

At this time, Gao Han had already seen the arrangement of the puppet troops clearly. There were 11 puppet troops, 5 people in front of them, and the other 6 stood far away. If they took action at this time, those people would have the chance to shoot and resist. This place was only five miles away from Taoyuan Town. Once the gun was fired, it might alarm the people in the town. Once the enemy was prepared, the attack would be considered a failure.

Gao Han had to gather these people together and solve them at the same time. He decided to check these people using the excuse of someone pretending to be a puppet army. However, they had not rehearsed this play in advance. If he spoke Japanese, Zhang Quan might not have reacted. So he simply pointed at the squad leader of the puppet army and said directly: "You, call all the people."

Zhang Quan's reaction was clever, and he immediately understood Gao Han's meaning. He said to the puppet army squad leader: "Taijun said that the escaped prisoners of war may pretend to be public security forces. Taijun caught not enough people, and there were also those who missed the net. You must check."

Hearing this, Jia Liu and Sun Yongan, who were disguised as Japanese soldiers, immediately pointed their guns at the puppet army squad leader.

The six puppet soldiers standing in the distance became nervous when they saw this. They all raised their guns, but they were very hesitant and did not dare to point the gun at the Japanese devils, so they had to look at the puppet army squad leader. They had already placed their index fingers on the trigger, and as long as the puppet army squad leader sent a signal, they could shoot immediately.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.

However, facing the shaking bayonets and black muzzles in front of him, the puppet army squad leader was already scared. He didn't want to die at the hands of the Japanese devils because of a misunderstanding. In the eyes of the Japanese devils, the puppet army was just a dog, and it would be useless to die. No one dared to say anything.

He hurriedly accompanied the smile and said, "Taijun, please don't get me wrong. I'll call them here." He waved to the puppet soldiers standing outside and shouted, "Come here quickly! Let Taijun check it."

In order to eliminate the puppet army's vigilance to prevent accidents, Gao Han waved his hand, and Jia Liu and Sun Yongan put away their guns.

Gao Han took out a piece of paper from the seized bag of Ichiro Watanabe and looked at it in a pretentious manner. He said a few more words.

Zhang Quan said: "You all stand in a row, Taijun wants to check."

The puppet soldiers were unprepared and all felt relieved. They knew that they were innocent and were definitely not those escaped prisoners of war, and the Japanese officers would not cause trouble for them. So they all carried their guns on their shoulders and stood in a row in a regular manner.

The squad leader of the puppet army was with Gao Han, first pointing at his face, and smiling flatteringly: "Taijun, look, we are really from the Public Security Army, and we are definitely not the prisoners of war you are looking for."

Gao Han looked at him, nodded, and then looked at the puppet soldiers. Seeing that the squad leader was fine, the puppet soldiers also smiled at Gao Han.

Gao Han suddenly shouted: "Take it."

He grabbed the puppet army squad leader's neck with his left hand, quickly pulled out his gun with his right hand and pressed the gun against his head.

The members of the commando team who had already made secret preparations immediately raised their guns and pointed them at the puppet soldiers standing in a row, shouting: "Don't move! If you move, you will kill you. Put the guns on the ground, and squat down with your head in your hands."

Faced with the threat of death, the puppet soldiers were all shocked. No one dared to resist stubbornly, and they obediently obeyed the order.

The people from Taohua Mountain cheered and stepped forward to grab the weapons on the ground.

The checkpoint of this puppet army must be destroyed, otherwise, the commando will encounter great trouble when they capture the Liu family compound and return.

The battle ended smoothly. The puppet soldiers were stripped of their military uniforms and tied up. They were taken to a nearby canal, guarded by two people who had changed into puppet military uniforms. They wanted to stay here, guard the intersection and observe the situation, and go to Taoyuan Town to report to Gao Han at any time.

Guo Hengming, Du Shengxi and others who pretended to be prisoners of war were very excited. The victory of the battle made them feel refreshed for a long time since they were captured, and they became more and more admiring Gao Han.

Now the remaining 19 people have all had military uniforms and weapons. The smooth progress of the battle greatly improved the confidence of the team members. Under Gao Han's leadership, they headed towards Tao Town.

Taoyuan Town.
