Chapter 186: Touching the Whistle
There was no need for a guide to remind them of this, as they had already seen the lights in the distance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
All five of them pulled out the box cannon in their hands in one hand, but they held a dagger in the other, because if they wanted to release the cannon, they had to knock out the Japanese guard post first.
This time, Huo Xiaoshan walked to the front, the guide followed behind, and the fool and the reckless man with the grenadier and grenadier on his back walked at the end.
The speed of the march slowed down significantly, because Huo Xiaoshan had to search for the Japanese army's secret outpost.
There must be a clear outpost, but no one can guarantee whether the Japanese army's secret post will be ambushed in a dark house in advance.
Huo Xiaoshan lowered his waist like a wolf that came out to hunt at night, and his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness of that night.
Fifty meters, sixty meters, seventy meters, Huo Xiaoshan suddenly waved his hand, and the person fell to the ground, and the people behind him brushed the ground like a straw cut by a sickle.
In the quiet night, a small black shadow ran more than ten meters ahead, which turned out to be a wild cat.
There was a false alarm, and Huo Xiaoshan got up again and touched forward.
The five of them are veterans, and each of them has a white towel tied to their right wrist, which is afraid that they will not be able to speak sometimes after touching it, and this white towel can make the gestures clearer in the dark.
Fifty meters, sixty meters, one hundred meters, two hundred meters...... Finally, Huo Xiaoshan stopped, because the nearest light was only a few dozen meters away from them, and they dodged behind a low wall and looked forward.
At the end of the open space diagonally in front of us was a house with a hooded electric lamp on the eaves, and two Japanese soldiers with guns could be seen standing in the dark shadow behind the lamp.
The lights were shining on a road, and more than 300 meters along that road, there were several pillars of searchlights that flickered from time to time across the night sky, and there were more lights there, and it must be the base camp of the Japanese army.
Feeling that the observation was almost over, Huo Xiaoshan and the others retracted their heads and squatted against the low wall.
Huo Xiaoshan glanced at the rest of the people and said in a low voice: "According to the set plan, act!" ”
So Hanzi took out a slender box, but did not open it, but got up and turned around slightly, and aimed one end at one of the Japanese sentries, which was the winged crossbow.
The Gui guide aimed the box gun at the other sentry.
Huo Xiaoshan, Shen Chong, and the reckless man put away his gun, got up with a dagger, and flashed into the darkness of the night.
Of course, if the Japanese army is arrogant enough, they may only set up a clear post, but Huo Xiaoshan and they can't help but guard against it
If the Japanese army has set up a dark outpost, then the bright post must be within the line of sight of the dark post, so that it can play the role of mutual cooperation and vigilance, in other words, that is, it can search along the place where the Japanese army can see the outpost, because there are many houses, the range that the sentry can see is always limited due to shading, which Huo Xiaoshan analyzed before they came, so as long as they are not discovered by the enemy first, it is not difficult to hunt one or two dark sentry.
Huo Xiaoshan walked through the shadows where he could see the whistle, just like a leopard that had become silent because of the thick meat pads on his feet and was about to prey.
Huo Xiaoshan searched the area to the left of the Japanese outpost, but he found nothing after searching for half an hour, it seems that the Japanese army did not set up a secret post in this area, otherwise he would not have found it, so he returned to the place where he started to search - behind the low wall, Han Zi and the Gui soldier were still aiming at the two sentry posts, to Huo Xiaoshan's surprise, Shen Chong and the reckless man actually returned!
In the dark, Huo Xiaoshan couldn't see their eyes, but he saw the reckless man making a pinching and twisting action. Huo Xiaoshan instantly understood, they actually found a secret sentry of the Japanese army, and the action was clearly saying that the reckless man pinched the neck of the secret sentry and twisted his head off!
Although it was in the dark, others could imagine the excitement of the reckless man at this time
Shen Chong pointed in the direction of the two sentinels, which undoubtedly meant hands.
Huo Xiaoshan just wanted to express his agreement, and his heart moved, and he made a wait signal, he poked his head out from behind the low wall and looked at the area he had searched just now for a while, then shrank back, and motioned for the rest of the people to wait a little longer, while he grabbed the dagger and touched it out again.
This time he quickly came to the back of a house opposite the two sentinels, and he remembered that there was a window on this side of the house, and he pushed it lightly at that time, and left without pushing.
This house is the only place in this area that Huo Xiaoshan has not searched, and when he saw the reckless man Shen Chong kill the Japanese army's secret outpost, he suddenly realized that it was necessary to search this house, and he didn't enter the house last time because the entrance to this house was under the light, and it was difficult to enter under the nose of the Japanese army's sentry.
This time he didn't move the window again, but looked at the gables on the left and right sides of the house, but fortunately, the house was not completely facing the lamp, the right side was completely illuminated, and there was a shadow on the left that just enough to accommodate him, so he leaned against the gable of the house, and shrank his body in the shadow and moved towards the front of the house.
Reaching the corner, he took a deep breath and glanced at the two sentinels on the opposite side with the smallest movement he could.
Fortunately, perhaps the two Japanese soldiers had been standing for a long time, and at this time they were pacing in the light with their guns in their hands, and they were facing away from themselves.
Huo Xiaoshan reached out and felt out the bullet of a box cannon, and as soon as he reached out, he threw it out very softly.
The bullet arced in the light, and it hit the lower right of the window of this house, and it fell to the ground with a "click", which was good, not loud, and did not alarm the two sentinels.
But in the next moment, Huo Xiaoshan saw the head of a Japanese soldier poking out of the open window and looking to the right of the window!
When Huo Xiaoshan retracted his head, the Japanese soldier's head also happened to turn to the left.
Huo Xiaoshan threw this bullet with just the right force, and after making a sound, he slid directly to the corner of the wall, the Japanese soldier did not see the bullet, and there were shadows in the left and right visions except for lights.
The two Japanese soldiers on the other side were also turning around and pacing back, seeing that he showed his head and showed a puzzled expression, the Japanese soldier waved his hand to show that it was okay, and then shrank back, and in his opinion the quiet sound was either he heard it wrong, or the wild cat kicked off a stone or a small clod of dirt on the roof.
Huo Xiaoshan silently counted the time, and when he estimated that the two sentinels had turned around and began to pace with their backs to him, he poked his head out again, and saw that the two Japanese soldiers had just turned around.
He did not hesitate, his body was pressed very low, but his feet sprang out at a rapid pace, like a tanuki, which happened to pass under the window, and in a flash he entered the half-open door that had been observed!
The Japanese sentry was still standing responsibly in front of the window and looking out, and he didn't hear or see a sound or see Huo Xiaoshan who slipped into the house from under the window under his eyelids.
But when he felt a gust of wind rush over his head, an open hand was covering his mouth head-on, and at the same time, a sharp dagger had pierced his heart like lightning!
Huo Xiaoshan hurriedly let go of his right hand and no longer cared about the dagger, but stepped forward and stretched out his hand, hugged the body of the Japanese soldier who fell backwards, and the hand covering the Japanese soldier's mouth never let go, allowing the Japanese soldier to struggle more and more powerlessly until he died.
Huo Xiaoshan gently put the lifeless Japanese soldier to the ground, pulled out the dagger on the corpse, and looked out the window again.
The two sentinels were unaware of it, and when they reached the end of this side, they turned around and began the last dozen or so steps of their lives.
Huo Xiaoshan ran out of the house silently, and the Japanese soldier behind him only felt the wind rise behind him, and then when his mouth was covered, the dagger had pierced his heart.
The Japanese soldier in front heard something strange behind him, but before he could turn back, there was a crisp snap not far away, but an arrow had pierced his head!
This is a tacit understanding, Huo Xiaoshan has no reason not to believe that his comrades-in-arms do not always watch the every move of the Ming Sentinel, so he chose the Ming Sentinel behind. (To be continued.) )
