The continuous gunfire was accompanied by the rising firelight, and the face of Harumoto Kumamasa in the barracks kept changing, and at this time he finally figured out one thing, that is, the other party was coming for the granary in the city.

"Yaga Yalu, damn the people of China, their target is our granary!"

Harumoto Kumashi slammed his fist on the table, and now he finally understood that the other party was coming for his granary. But what he couldn't understand was that the other party spent so much effort, was it just for the grain in the granary, how could this be explained differently.

Harumoto Kumamasa is a very orthodox Japanese soldier, in his concept the most important thing in fighting a war is to destroy the enemy's living forces, tonight's enemies are poisoned and raided, their goal should undoubtedly be to occupy Shigu County, is that his first reaction after learning of the attack is to hold the military camp in the center of the city, as long as the military camp is held, and the reinforcements can arrive after dawn to defeat the enemy, and for the granary located next to him he just sent more than a dozen wounded soldiers to defend, But the development of events was beyond his expectations, and the other party actually went straight to the granary, but turned a blind eye to the military camp that was close at hand, which made him feel a great shame.

After learning that the other party's target was not his own barracks, Harumoto Kumamasa's originally worried heart also began to liven, and he thought for a long time and said to Lieutenant Murakami on the side: "Murakami-kun, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Lieutenant Murakami, who had been busy for most of the day, looked a little tired now, and he replied without thinking: "Your Excellency Shaozo, since the other party is coming for the granary, it proves that it is not the regular army of China that attacked us tonight, but it is very likely that it is their local armed forces, otherwise they would not have made such a big fight for less than twenty tons of grain, if this is the case, then I am sure that once they occupy the granary, it will not take long to connect and withdraw, So I think as long as we hold the headquarters and wait until tomorrow the reinforcements arrive, we will be safe. ”

"Safe?"

Lieutenant Murakami's intentions were good, but it seemed so harsh to the ears of Haramoto Kumamasa, when would the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire pray for safety because of the local armed forces in China.

He listened carefully to the gunfire outside, and found that most of the gunshots that rang out were the sound of the empire's standard rifles and eleven-year-old light machine guns, and occasionally there were a few muffled gunshots.

"Local armed forces?" Harumoto Kumamasa's teeth gritted loudly, and he shouted: "Murakami-kun! ”

Lieutenant Murakami strode forward and said loudly: "Please give orders from Your Excellency Shaozuo!" ”

"You immediately lead two squads to attack from behind the headquarters, and you must wipe out this local armed force on the opposite side!"

"Nani?" Lieutenant Murakami was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, now our troops are already insufficient, and if I lead the troops to attack again, the command will be undefended." ”

"What are you afraid of!"

Harumoto Kumamasa suddenly became furious, and he roared and shouted: "We are officers who graduated from the Imperial Army University, not those ronin who wander the streets all day long, how can we be frightened into retreating in the headquarters by a group of local armed forces, now I order you to immediately take the warriors to attack and kill the intestines of those people on the opposite side with your bayonets, do you understand!" ”

Looking at Harumoto Xiong's face that had become distorted by anger, Lieutenant Murakami knew that his boss couldn't stand it immediately after learning that it was only the local armed forces of Huaxia who attacked him, a dignified imperial army was beaten like this by a group of local armed forces, if it was tracked down by the superiors in the future, it would not only be a matter of being sent back to the mainland, maybe it would be possible to be ordered to be disemboweled, so for the sake of today's plan, only the local armed forces of Huaxia in front of him could have the possibility of escaping.

It's just that although Murakami understands Harumoto's concerns, he doesn't support his actions much, after all, their current strength is too tight, and if they lead their troops to attack again, there will be no one in the headquarters.

Thinking of this, Murakami couldn't help but persuade bitterly: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, you better think about it again, the number of people in the command is already tight, if I lead my troops to attack again, there will be no one around you!" ”

"Smack!"

A crisp voice sounded, and Lieutenant Murakami immediately received a hot slap in the face.

Immediately, Harumoto Xiong's roaring voice sounded: "Yaga, are you the commander or am I the commander, when have you begun to question my orders, I now order you, immediately lead the troops to disperse the group of Zhina forces, otherwise I don't mind shooting you and personally leading the team to attack!" ”

"Hay!"

Seeing that Harumoto Xiong was Wang Ba's iron heart, Lieutenant Murakami could only obediently obey and turned around and walked towards the gate.

Looking at the figure of Lieutenant Murakami disappearing at the door, Harumashi muttered, "This idiot doesn't understand my situation at all. If I let Dazuo know the day before yesterday that I was actually defeated by the local armed forces of China, he would have sent me to a military court even if he didn't let me have a caesarean section, so it would be better to give it a go. ”

When Lieutenant Murakami led more than 20 Japanese troops to rush out of the headquarters, all the Japanese troops guarding the granary had been cleared, and Zhang Xiuniang was leading hundreds of men, women, and children from Erlongshan to come over to transport grain. For tonight's action, Zhang Xiuniang also let go, she not only brought all the people who could move on Erlong Mountain, but also asked these people to bring all the baskets, carts, carts and other means of transport, and what made her even happier was that after occupying the granary, Su Jin also found a stable in a courtyard, which contained more than 30 horses and dozens of carts, plus after opening the granary, the grain that filled several rooms was even more Zhang Wanniang's heart.

Her little maid Xiaoyu was even more happy: "Miss...... You see, there is a lot of food here, which is enough for our people in Erlong Mountain to eat for a long time. ”

Although Zhan Xiuniang was happy, it was still a relatively good situation, she ordered: "Now is not the time to be happy, Xiaoyu, you quickly let the brothers put on the cart and pull everything away!" ”

"Bang Bang ......"

Just when everyone was rejoicing, another burst of gunfire was heard in front.

Soon someone shouted: "Big boss, it's not good, another group of Japanese have come out of the barracks in front, and they are killing them!" ”
