Chapter 72 Encountering the enemy
"What? What did you say?" Ma Yuanfang grabbed the militiaman in Chen who was coming to report the news and asked.
"Ghosts, the Ghosts suddenly surrounded the village, and hundreds of young and old were captured." There were still tears in the eyes of the militia, and they hurriedly repeated it.
"What are you doing? Didn't I send someone to deliver the letter and ask the villagers to transfer it? Why didn't I execute it?" Ma Yuanfang asked sternly.
"I said it, I said it all." The militia stumbled, "It's frozen, the villagers don't want to leave. Besides, I didn't expect it..."
"I didn't expect the Japanese to be idle in Zhaojiazhuang. I'll go to Chencun again, right?" Zhao Sihai pushed away the militia who reported the news and said to Ma Yuanfang, "Commissioner Ma, let's think of a way quickly. Zhao Hong helped establish a women's rescue meeting in Chencun. I don't know if it ran out. If it's too late, I can't catch up."
Ma Yuanfang glared at the militia fiercely, "I will settle the score with you in the future." He turned his head and ordered, "The first team continued to harass the enemy, the second and third teams followed me and Captain Zhao to rescue the villagers in Chencun."

Wu Ming was very depressed. Since he failed to run away, he basically lost his freedom. Two people followed him closely everywhere he went. Even when he was sleeping, there were double posts to protect the entrance of the cave.
"Qinglonggou is coming soon?" Shen Min asked softly behind her.
"I have to walk a while. If I hadn't had to take a detour for safety, I probably have arrived now." Wu Ming pointed to Qinglonggou and said.
"Do you remember the scene when we first met?" Shen Min leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "You put medicine on me and bandage it, so naturally and frankly admit that it was your eyes that made me believe you all at once."
"Well, I remember." Wu Ming lowered his head and replied.
"Now is no different from before. Just pretend that I have applied medicine again. Don't always feel sorry for anyone, and don't even have the courage to face me." Shen Min continued, "I hope you are still as scruples and straightforward as before. You can't afford this little thing, but it will damage your tall image in our minds!"
"Am I tall?" Wu Ming raised his chest and asked with a smile, his expression becoming much more natural. "Once this kind of thing starts, I can't stop the car. Be careful that I often give you medicine!"
"That's right." Shen Min looked at Wu Ming with a smile, "I'm willing, why are you pretending to be pretentious? It seems that you have suffered a great loss."
"I'm wrong, I'm guilty." Wu Ming seemed to have returned to his original free and unrestrainedness, "Next time, next time, I will definitely satisfy you."
"Next time..." Shen Min blushed.
"Next time, I will shoot me if I dare to sneak away next time." Wang Ying, who caught up from behind, heard half of the words and immediately raised the gun in her hand angrily.
"I am not loyal and irresponsible." Wang Ying continued to say dissatisfiedly, "Don't blame me as an apprentice for not giving you face. I would rather break my legs and let Amin carry you on my back all day than let you run away."
"Why do you let me carry it on my back? If you dare to shoot him with a gun, you will naturally take care of him." Shen Min said with a smile.
"I think so, but I'm afraid you will fight hard with me." Wang Ying squeezed her eyes at Shen Min meaningfully.
"Nonsense." Shen Min pursed her lips and scolded her softly.
"Shh" Wu Ming suddenly raised a finger, shook his head and listened carefully, "Listen, there seems to be gunfire over there."
Kumamoto and Du Shikun were escorting the common people of Chen Village and moving forward in a mess. Not far from the front of the team were three Japanese vanguards, lined up in a herringbone formation, doing reconnaissance and searching. Behind was a squad of Japanese. Du Shikun gave his horse to Kumamoto, riding a snatched iron-green mule, followed Kumamoto proudly, and lazily whipped his long horse boots with his horse whip while walking.
Behind Du Shikun was a puppet army team, escorting the captured people, constantly yelling and urging them to leave quickly. These common people were tied up with long ropes, some were crying, some were begging, and some were whispering. The puppet troops and spies on both sides were scolding, shouting, punching, kicking, and some were holding butts, messing around, showing their evil spirits. Finally, the two squads of Japanese soldiers and more than fifty puppet soldiers were escorted.
A full Japanese squad had 13 people, including the squad leader, 4 machine gun shooters and 8 riflesmen. There was a light machine gun, which was organized into four people (commander, shooter, and two ammunition-carrying deputy shooters). These four people were equipped with self-defense pistols and sometimes carried rifles in battle (except machine gun shooters); the remaining eight riflesmen each had a single-shot rifle. A squad consisted of three squads and a grenade squad equipped with three grenade trolleys. A total of 54 people.
Kumamoto and Du Shikun placed heavy troops on the back and the two wings at a later date. If the guerrillas catch up, they will hit the gang of Turkish Eighth Route Army head-on. As for the front, there should be no problem with safety. The guerrillas cannot give up wings, so it is unlikely that they will run to the front to intercept.
"There are many people!" Wang Ying took a breath while observing the enemy in the distance from the scope.
"There are not many people in front of you, and the heavy weapon is just two machine guns." Fan Hongfang added.
"Let's fight, how about it?" Wu Ming looked around at the terrain, had an idea, and said with a smile.
"This is a devil, not a bandit, and there are many people." Liu Hua asked with some concern.
"If you fight, run away and let the Japanese stare at you." Wang Ying said with a smile.
"Look at it." Wu Ming pointed to the terrain not far ahead. "The terrain here is very favorable. Although there are many enemies, it is not easy to expand. Especially the large lane ditch in front of us, the small path here is quite narrow. When the enemy passes the ditch, they have to go up and down one by one, and there is no place to hide. We just happened to deal with them."
"That's the matter." Fan Hongfang looked at the terrain and nodded, "With this ditch, the Japanese brigade could not see the situation here, and the number of people rushing over cannot be too many. We have five guns, plus No. 1's magical shooting technique, as long as he dares to show his head, he will hit him in the head. This is enough for the Japanese to have a headache."
"If they want to break through, they have to take a big detour. Let's cause some trouble for the enemy, and perhaps let the common people escape in the chaos!" Wu Ming looked at the Japanese who were getting closer and closer and waved his hand, "You guys go down and find a good position, separate from each other, and the Japanese will hit the slope. Wang Ying and I have better shooting skills. Let's go to the small mound next to us to snipe valuable targets in the Japanese brigade, and observe the enemy's movements by the way."
"Then you have to be careful." Shen Min reminded him worriedly.
"No problem. At this distance, the Japanese don't have that accurate marksmanship, and the grenade can't reach them. They don't have mortars yet. How can they hurt me if they shoot blindly!" Wu Ming said indifferently.
The essence of this week is not enough. If you want it, please leave a message in the top book review. I will add it next week. If you leave a message casually, I am afraid I will be squeezed out and will be out of sight next week. L5, 2i0jmlQbG
