Chapter 8 In the battle of sparrows
"hateful"
Yan Laosi missed the target with one shot, and he was so angry that he broke the curse.
Experience told Yan Laosi that he must decisively transfer his position. If he fires again, he will most likely expose his position. He may not be able to lose the Japanese at that time, but he may be defeated by the Japanese in turn. Lao Gao and Li Mu repeatedly warned them that the Japanese's shooting skills are good, and underestimating them will have to pay a price.
But Yan Laosi was a little unwilling to accept it, and he wanted to try his luck again.
Through the sight, Yan Laosi continued to lock in the little Japanese officer, but the little Japanese officer was already alert. While hiding his body to the left of the horse's belly, he hid to the right again, while also circling around the place while playing horses. This brought great difficulties to Yan Laosi's aiming. This little Japanese is cunning enough.
But Yan Laosi still had no intention of hunting.
At this time, more than a dozen Japanese cavalry had already caught up and surrounded the officer. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers raised their rifles on their horses and fired randomly at the woods around them. Several bullets were shot at the cypress tree where Yan Laosi was hiding, and flew over his head with a whizzing scream.

While reeling on the spot, Sato flew over from the horse's back, trying to avoid leaving the time interval for the opponent's sniper to lock the aiming. It was not until the cavalry of this team followed that Sato ordered them to disperse and carry out firepower inspections on all the suspicious targets around.
The fire reconnaissance lasted for several minutes, and Sato did not dare to sit up from the horse.
This little Japanese never takes other people's lives seriously, but he cares about his own lives very much.
"You, you, and you go to the left, you go to the right, and you go to the front, don't let go of any suspicious targets. As long as you find living things, no matter people or animals, you will be killed." Sato was still worried and ordered more than ten cavalry of this team to expand the scope of inspection to ensure safety around them.
More than ten riders scattered and expanded their reconnaissance.
(Split Line)
Seeing three Japanese cavalry coming straight towards the cypress tree where he was hiding, Yan Laosi became a little anxious.
This century-old cypress tree has dense needle leaves, with more than a dozen people hiding under the canopy. It can't be found in the distance, but if you look closer, it will be easy to find.
The militia responsible for seducing the enemy greeted Yan Laosi and hid in a tree hole.
There is a tunnel directly under the tree hole, and the following is an authentic network of tunnels.
The Japanese cavalry were getting closer and closer, and they could find themselves ten meters ahead. Yan Laosi couldn't help but hold his breath and aimed at the Japanese officer in front of him. However, he still failed to hit the target. He only hit the Japanese war horse, and tore a blood hole as big as a bowl on the neck of the war horse.
As soon as the gunshot sounded, the location where Yan Laosi was hiding was exposed.
The three Japanese cavalry who searched for it raised their guns at the same time and fired continuously according to the direction where Yan Laosi was hiding. The little Japanese gunshot technique was really not vented. Although they had not yet discovered the direction where Yan Laosi was hiding, they basically judged the exact direction just by relying on the sound of gunfire, and almost dropped Yan Laosi.
At the same time, Japanese cavalry from other directions also roared.
Yan Laosi rolled down from the hiding branches, then plunged into the tree hole among the branches below. Almost as he plunged into the tree hole, the three Japanese cavalry also arrived. One of the Japanese cavalry raised his hand, and a grenade had already flew up with blue smoke, and finally landed accurately into the tree hole.
After the violent explosion, the century-old cypress suddenly burst from the middle, and the flying wood chips sprayed out dozens of meters away. The tree that had already died half could no longer bear the heavy crown. With the harsh crunch, the old cypress broke from the middle.
"Captain, there is an authentic tunnel under the tree."
A Japanese soldier came forward to check the broken mouth of the old cypress tree, turned his head and yelled at Sato.
Sato was shocked and roared at the Japanese soldier with gritted teeth: "Blast them to death with grenades."
Several Japanese soldiers untied the melon grenades on their waists, knocked the fuse and threw it into the dark tree hole. After a few seconds of delay, a few dull explosions came from the depths of the tree hole. Then, a rippling of blue smoke escaped from the tree hole. As for whether there were any Chinese soldiers hiding in the hole, only God knew.
At this time, Kono Toshi followed with a squad of cavalry, staring at Sato and said coldly: "San Sato, now you should know that I am not scared to hear it, right?"
Sato groaned and turned his gaze elsewhere.
Although he was still unwilling to accept, Sato must admit that the Chinese army is more cunning than he thought. If he hadn't been his life just now, then he would have been broken for His Majesty the Emperor. Thinking of this, Sato couldn't help but look down at his beloved horse again. The war horse was still not breathing its breath and was lying in a pool of blood.
He squatted down and touched the forehead of the war horse. Sato felt sad and sad. The war horse had been with him for more than three years, but he didn't expect to block bullets for him as soon as he set foot on China.
But Toshiko Kono took out the turtle box from the gun holster and shot Sato's warhorse on the forehead.
After this shock, Sato finally realized that war was not a joke, so he was much more restrained.
After that, the cavalry team continued to search and advance, and were attacked by the anti-Japanese and national salvation troops in southern Anhui, but after learning the lessons, the cavalry team did not easily divide their troops to pursue them.
The cavalry team successfully advanced outside the town of Yanjia Town.
There is a small river outside Yanjia Town, and close to the river is a large area of paddy fields. At this time, the rice in the fields has matured, and the heavy rice ears bent to the ground, making it golden.
It is also a purpose for Japanese to choose this time to attack Longkou.
Because the rice harvest in southern Anhui is in sight, the Japanese army will immediately collect enough military rations after occupying Longkou.
Kono Toshi ordered the cavalry to spread along the river bank, and it was strictly forbidden to trample on the farmland. Then he raised his telescope to observe the movements in the town from afar. The town was quiet, and he could not hear the chickens crowing and dogs barking, nor could there be smoke rising in cooking. Kono Toshi had been on the Chinese battlefield for two years and knew that behind this calmness, there must be murderous intent.
If you can choose, Kono Shun really doesn't want to enter the town.
But there is no way. The main task of the cavalry team is to reconnaissance on the battlefield, find the main force of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui, and bite them tightly, rush to arrive for the main force, and encircle and annihilate them to win time.
Shun Kono put down his telescope and turned his attention to several team leaders.
Sato pretended not to see it, and led his horse to the river to drink water. The little Japanese was frightened by the horror just now, and he has not yet come back to his senses.
Kono Toshiko had no choice but to order two teams to stay outside the town to guard the situation. He personally took another team and got off the horse and entered the town to reconnaissance. Although Yanjia Town is a big town, the streets and alleys in the town were very narrow. The cavalry followed the dense forest when they entered, and they couldn't move away at all. It was better to walk more neatly.
When you enter the town, you will immediately see a archway, and when you pass through the archway, you will immediately see a fork.
Shun Kono chose the main street in the middle, and the entire team unfolded in combat formation. An infantry team opened the way forward, and an infantry team covered him behind him. An infantry team and fire support team responded in the middle. Everyone was alert and arched their waists and tiptoed forward.
A grenade was smoking and suddenly threw it out of the street yard.
Before Shun Kawano's order was made, dozens of Japanese soldiers fell to the ground at the same time.
The grenade hit the ground and bounced twice, and continued to smoke out. After a few seconds, it did not explode. After a dozen seconds, the smoke stopped coming, but it still did not explode. Toshiko Kono made a Japanese soldier's mouth. The Japanese soldier had no choice but to pluck up the courage to go forward, pick up the grenade, but found that it was just a lump of wood with a fuse.
"Bagayaru." After seeing it, Kono Toshiro threw the lump of wood aside angrily.
At this time, an infantry team that broke into the door had completed the search for the small courtyard. What was strange was that there were no ghosts in the small courtyard. The lump of wood seemed to fly out by itself just now. Kono Toshi didn't believe in evil, so he personally led the people to search inside and out twice, but he still found nothing.
"Opening the road" Kono Shun had to give up in the end and evacuated the courtyard with Japanese soldiers.
However, as soon as the little Japanese returned to the street, he threw out another grenade from the yard.
All the Japanese, including Toshiko Kono, fell to the ground again. In just over ten seconds, the grenade did not explode. After inspection, it turned out to be another lump of wood with a fuse inserted.
Kono Toshi was so angry that he rushed into the courtyard with an infantry team again.
The doorman, the main house, and the east wing carefully checked it, but there was no discovery. When it was the west wing, the vigilance of the Japanese soldiers had obviously decreased. Obviously, they believed that this search would be like the one just now, and there was no gain. A Japanese soldier walked forward with a bayonet and opened the door curtain at once.
