Chapter 592: Reconnaissance Behind Enemy(1/3)
After meeting the boss, Wang Ye immediately led more than 30 members of the Wolf Warrior Team to northern Henan.
Wang Ye and his team went to the Fukou Pass among the eight passes of Taihang. Although the cliffs of the Wolf Warriors were no different from those of the flat road, the horses riding did not have wings, and the team members could not fall down from the cliffs of seven or eight hundred pounds through the zipline, so they could only go to the Fukou Pass.
This is also the reason why the Japanese army was able to block traffic between the Taihang Military Region and the southern Hebei Military Region by relying on the Taihang Mountains.
Because the Japanese army only needed to block the Fukou Xing and the Jingxing in the north to easily block traffic, the Eighth Route Army's mule and horse transport team could not put on wings and fly across the Taihang Mountains.
That is why the head of the headquarters decided to establish an anti-Japanese base in northern Henan.
Because the anti-Japanese base in northern Henan was established, the Fukou Pass was opened, and the traffic line between the southern Hebei Military Region and the Taihang Military Region was opened. The grain from the southern Hebei Military Region continued to flow into the Taihang Military Region and the Taiyue Military Region, and the salt from the Taiyue Military Region could flow into the southern Hebei Military Region in reverse.
In this way, the Japanese army's cage policy was declared bankrupt.
Back to the topic, Wang Ye led more than 30 team members to the east along the main road in Fukou Pass, and saw hungry people all the way along the way.
Some hungry people are staggering forward with crutches made of branches.
However, more hungry people looked dull and sat on the side of the road with expressionless faces, while others simply lay on the side of the road.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves passing by the Wolf Warriors, the hungry people turned their heads mechanically, but after a glance, they turned their heads.
There was no trace of vitality from the expressions and eyes of these hungry people, as if they were walking zombies.
It is the end of November now, and the weather is extremely cold. It can be said that it turns into ice by dripping water. The Taihang Mountains are even colder, but most of these hungry people are thin-clothed.
A very small number of hungry people were wearing cotton coats, but they were so torn that even the cotton wool was exposed.
Many hungry people fell to the ground as they walked, and then never stood up again. More hungry people lying on the side of the road, and their whole bodies had long been frozen and stiff.
What kind of tragedy is this?
Wang Ye felt a feeling of unprecedented heavyness.
A baby's cry suddenly came from the front.
Wang Yeyou looked at him and saw a woman with disheveled hair sitting under the ridge of the roadside.
The woman's hair was as messy as dry grass, the cotton wool from the broken cotton coat had already fallen out, and the cover and inside the clip had been broken into strips of ragged cloth. She couldn't even be able to hide her body when hung on her body.
There is a little boy of three or four years old snuggling under a woman's armpit.
He was looking at them with his big flickering eyes.
The little boy's clothes were quite complete, and he even had a tiger-headed hat.
From the workmanship and materials of the tiger-head hat, we can see that it comes from a wealthy family.
The woman was still holding a baby in her arms. The baby was sucking the woman's breasts exposed in the wind with her red mouth. Because she tried too hard, her face turned red.
But the woman's breasts have already dried up.
The baby started crying again if he couldn't suck milk.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ye completely broke the defense and couldn't stand it anymore.
"Little Huihui." Wang Ye turned around and said, "Give them a bag of dry food."
Wei Xilai said oh, then turned over and dismounted and sent a bag of dry food to the woman.
The woman was obviously stunned for a moment. After she realized that it was food, she immediately opened the cloth bag, then picked up the tube-shaped cloth bag and poured it into her mouth like crazy. It was fried noodles, which was very dry, but it choked.
Seeing the woman lying there coughing violently, Wei Xilai was at a loss.
At this time, the hungry people around suddenly surrounded the woman, trying to steal the dry food from the woman.
People can do anything when they are hungry. In order to survive, what can they count as snatching food from women and children? This has nothing to do with human nature, but instinct, the instinct of survival.
Naturally, the woman refused to let her keep the dry food bag tightly in her arms.
Wei Xilai tried to stop him, but found that it was futile. How could he stop so many hungry people alone?
Wang Ye sighed lightly, turned around and said to more than 30 team members: "Take out all the dry food to satisfy the victims' hunger."
More than 30 Wolf Warriors team members did not hesitate at all, and immediately took off the dry food bag on their backs and placed it on the ground.
The hungry people finally stopped fighting for the bag of dry food in the woman's arms, but instead came to rob the dry food sent by the Wolf Warriors.
More than thirty bags of dry food were quickly snatched away, and some dry food bags were grabbed by several hungry people at the same time. As they tore each other, the cloth bags were directly cracked, and the fried noodles inside suddenly fell all over the floor.
The hungry people immediately picked up the sand and swallowed them voraciously.
No hungry people thanked them, and they could only fight and eat wildly.
These hungry people can no longer be considered humans, but are just beasts dominated by hunger.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ye felt like a big stone weighing thousands of pounds on his chest, and he was almost breathless. This is really a sin. The Japanese have committed sins, and Chang Kaishen also committed sins!
It’s just that I’m pitiful to the 30 million ordinary people in Henan!
When someone found that he gave alms of food, more hungry people flocked to him from all directions.
As a result, a larger-scale scramble began to take place, including the woman's dry food, which was eventually snatched away.
Wang Ye and more than 30 team members could only watch and were powerless to stop them because they only carried portions of dry food for seven days, and they had already given all of them to the hungry people and could not get more dry food.
The hungry people who heard the news did not rob the food, turned their green eyes to Wang Ye and their military horses.
Finally, a hungry hungry man picked up a crutch made of branches and hit Wang Ye's war horse fiercely, trying to kill the horse to satisfy his hunger. The hungry man could do anything.
Wang Ye hurriedly blocked the starving people's crutches with a rifle.
After blocking the crutches of the hungry people, Wang Ye never dared to stay for a long time.
"Let's go!" Wang Ye held the horse's belly with both legs and the horse shook its four hooves and ran forward.
More than 30 wolf warriors urged their horses to follow, and ran for several miles before finally getting rid of the hungry people.
Going further along the Wukou Pass, there were more hungry people, and there were more hungry people starving to death. The corpses of hungry people were lying on the way from Changzhi, which really corresponds to the idiom: starving people are dying.
Before seeing this scene, Wang Ye could not imagine what the starving Taoist would be like.
But after seeing the scene of starving people lying on the road, Wang Ye's heart was broken into pieces, which was a tragedy on earth.
But no matter how distressed I felt, I couldn't help it, because the Wolf Warrior Team did not have more food to help the hungry people along the way.
When they walked to the Guankou Xingkou, the hungry people did not decrease at all, but the Wolf Warrior Team could not move forward for the time being because Lin Han and Duan Peng, who acted as pioneers, were back.
Take the troops into the valley on the side of the road and hide.
Wang Ye called Lin Han and Duan Peng to the front.
"Duan Peng, Lin Han." Wang Ye said, "What's going on before?"
Duan Peng said: "Captain, there is a large market town in front of him, called Shangzhuang. It is said that there are five or six hundred families."
Lin Han said: "There are also walls built outside the town, with a height of six or seven meters. A trench was dug around the wall, which was almost four meters wide and more than two meters deep. Deer antlers were placed in the trench."
Duan Peng continued: "There are also built on the wall. There are puppet troops standing guard at the gate on the wall. Without a good citizen certificate, you will not be allowed to enter or exit at all."
Lin Han said: "And the puppet army in the village is black. A team of hungry people were so hungry just now that they wanted to enter the village to ask for some food, but the puppet army guarding the door directly stabbed it with a bayonet."
"Damn it." Wang Ye cursed with a dark face, "These dogs."
After a pause, Wang Ye turned around and ordered: "Xizi, you can find a hidden place to wait for the first time. Duan Peng, Lin Han and Xiao Huihui, you three stay and come to the village to reconnaissance after dark."
Wang Xikui responded and immediately took the wolf warriors away with his horse.
Wang Ye, Duan Peng, Lin Han and Wei Xilai stayed.
After waiting for a while, it became dark, but Wang Ye did not rush to act.
Instead, they waited until ten o'clock in the night before finally taking Duan Peng, Lin Han and Wei Xilai out of the mountains and came outside Shangzhuang Village under the cover of night.
I saw Shangzhuang standing outside Wukou Xing, and its geographical location was very important.
Although Shangzhuang is not considered a one-man pass for Wukou Xing, it is basically not much different. Anyway, if the Eighth Route Army wants to open up a base in northern Henan, it must first take down Shangzhuang.
Without taking down Shangzhuang, it is impossible to open the transportation line from southern Hebei to Taihang Military Region.
Because it was the end of the month, there was no moon, and the north wind was blowing tightly, and the weather was cold outside, so the puppet troops who were watching the night retreated into the gatehouse.
The wall was pitch black, no lights were seen, and there was no figure.
Behind the hanging suspension bridge, there was a stormy wind lamp hanging at the gate, swaying in the wind and creaking, but this faint light could only illuminate a few meters in a radius.
Wang Ye walked to the edge of the trench and jumped downwards.
Duan Peng just wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
At that moment, Duan Peng and Lin Han's hearts were hanging.
The bottom of the trench was covered with sharp antlers. The captain's feet wouldn't be pierced, right?
It is impossible to pierce Wang Ye’s feet, let alone deer antlers or steel nails, but Wang Ye’s cloth shoes were really stuck several holes.
"Captain, are you okay?"
Duan Peng poked his head out of the ditch and whispered in a low voice.
It was too dark and I couldn't see sign language clearly when it was far away, so I could only use sound.
Fortunately, it was windy tonight, so even if the puppet army plot was avoided on the wall, it would be impossible to hear it.
"It's okay." Wang Ye carefully cleared the antlers under the trench and shouted in a low voice, "Okay, come down."
