Chapter 35: Encounter with the Enemy (1)

Listening to the dense gunfire in front, the two sides were fighting quite fiercely, and Zhao Liang, who was traveling in a roundabout way, rushed to the back of a nest of bushes, and he finally saw the situation of the warring sides clearly in the bushes. The Japanese troops, who had already grasped the initiative in the battle situation, occupied a high hurdle, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers had a light machine gun and a grenadier as heavy firepower, and a dozen 38 rifles as auxiliary firepower. There were only a dozen rifles in the exchange of fire with the Japanese army, and they had been suppressed by the Japanese machine guns, and after a while, it might be a total annihilation.

There are more than 20 expeditionary forces under the ridge, and their weapons are very miscellaneous, including Zhongzheng rifles and Japanese-style 38 rifles, as well as British-caliber rifles, the only thing they have in common is that they are in tattered clothes like Zhao Liang. Seeing that two more soldiers of the expeditionary force were thrown high by the grenades fired by the Japanese grenadiers, Zhao Liang's heart couldn't bear it, and if he waited any longer, he was afraid that the expeditionary force under the ridge would all die. Gently placing the rifle he was carrying at his feet, Zhao Liang took off the grenade on his waist and held it in his hand.

"Wait, it's not the time yet, wait a little longer." A big hand that suddenly appeared on his side pressed Zhao Liang, who was about to get up and throw a bomb, and when Zhao Liang turned his face, a face full of indifference appeared in his sight, it was Hou San. I don't know when, Hou San, who was covered with some grass branches and rotten leaves on his military uniform, had quietly appeared beside Zhao Liang, while the dice and Tan Fei, who were also dressed up, had already held their guns in their hands and were slowly moving forward.

Zhao Liang didn't know why Hou San wanted to stop him from dropping bombs, and seeing that two more soldiers of the expeditionary force under the ridge were shot and fell down one after another, Zhao Liang struggled to break free from Hou San's grasp. "Don't move, the commander has taken people to the flank, we have to wait for their signal before we can fire, or even we will be entangled by these devil soldiers and we will not be able to escape." Hou San's big hand was as firm as a plier that made Zhao Liang, who was struggling with helplessness, under Hou San's clamp, all Zhao Liang could do was to squat honestly and wait for the signal from Tang Cheng's side.

"Boom" and "boom" two explosions, the Japanese machine gun and the machine gunner and several Japanese soldiers, including the machine gunner, were thrown high in the air, without waiting for the other Japanese soldiers to react, Hou San, who reached out to clamp Zhao Liang, had already snatched a grenade in Zhao Liang's hand, and Zhao Liang, who had already reflected at this time, followed Hou San's action and knocked the Japanese grenade with the safety bolt on the butt of his rifle, and threw it towards the Japanese army more than 20 meters away. Zhao Liang was less than 20 meters away from the Japanese army, but he just threw it sideways, and the grenade emitting green smoke fell to the position of the ridge.

"Boom" and "boom" were two more explosions, and Tan Fei and the dice who moved forward also threw grenades, and the two Japanese soldiers screamed and were pushed down under the ridge by the air wave, "Fire, fire" The soldiers of the expeditionary force under the ridge saw that someone was helping them, and the gunfire that had been sparse became dense again, and a few brave guys rushed directly to the ridge with rifles under the cover of their companions, and fought with the surviving Japanese soldiers. Seeing that the battle was almost over, Hou San shook his head, which was a little dizzy from the explosion, and walked towards the 50 grenadier that he had been optimistic about for a long time.

"Hey, I said come first and then come later, don't you understand, you are still saved by me" It's just that Hou San is still a step slower, and as soon as his hand stretches out, the grenadier that he has taken care of was taken away by a big hand. The annoyed Hou San couldn't help but cross his waist and teach the black man in front of him, so he rescued these guys, he didn't thank himself, and grabbed the grenadier with himself, and Zhao Liang, who followed from behind, also stared at the black man who was holding the grenadier.

"Was that the grenade you threw from behind?" The black man looked at Hou San, who was more sturdy than himself, with some confusion, and looked at the military uniform as he was. "Military doctor, military doctor, come here" The black man turned around and shouted a few times under the ridge, and a middle-aged man with a medicine box ran over on his back, "This kid said that they just threw the grenade, you are a scholar, you come and ask, I'll go see the rats and them" The big black man turned around and went down the ridge with a grenadier in his hand.

The middle-aged man with the medicine box on his back shook his greasy head very coquettishly, and winked at Hou San, "I've seen you, you are from the wounded soldier shelter in the east of the city, right?" Without waiting for Hou San to ask, the middle-aged man said quickly, "We are from the new 22nd Division, and we have been separated from the other brothers, and only a dozen of us are left." They all call me a military doctor, and the black lump just now is called Tiezhu, and I have the largest military rank, so they are under my control for the time being. By the way, we have two female soldiers here, but they are from the call room of the military department."

The military doctor only said this to Hou San, and he had already shook his head three times, and Zhao Liang, who was holding back a smile on Hou San's side, had to listen patiently to the people introduced by the military doctor. After two days of going around and around, he finally collided with the people of the new 22nd Division, it seems that it was still a wise choice to follow the new 22nd Division when he retreated, Tang Cheng, who came from the opposite side with a gun, listened to Hou San's narration, and couldn't help but squint his eyes and think to himself for a while.

"Then do you want to go by yourself or follow us, although we are not as numerous as you, but we have already killed at least three groups of pursuing Japanese soldiers in the forest, and you have already seen our combat effectiveness just now." Tang Shuang, who really couldn't see the military doctor continue to shake his hair, directly said his request, this guy nicknamed the military doctor didn't know that among them, Tang Cheng actually only took a fancy to him, the military doctor, and the female soldiers in the two call rooms, and the others were actually dispensable to Tang Cheng.

"Take us along, of course it's okay" The military doctor who shook his head from time to time was certainly not a fool, they were suppressed by the Japanese army just now and had no way out, if it weren't for the grenades thrown by their gang in Tangcheng, I'm afraid that more than a dozen of them would have become corpses. People like Tang Cheng who can fight are naturally as good as possible, and the military doctor immediately agreed, saying that they still have some food, and they don't have to worry about food for the time being.

Seeing that the military doctor agreed, Tang Cheng immediately turned around and went back to get the things he had hidden in the bushes, and when he came back with his things, the battlefield here had already been cleaned. The machine gun was blown up and could not be used, but fortunately, this Japanese light machine gun used 38 rifle cartridges, and the captured machine gun bullets were cheaper than a few soldiers of the expeditionary force who used 38 rifles.

"It turns out that you are from the courtyard in the east of the city, I said that I just quit, why do you look so familiar, but I have been to your courtyard to see the fellows." The big black man who was competing with Hou San for the grenadier walked over with some embarrassment, and threw Hou San a cigarette very familiarly. "My name is Ma Dazhuang, I belong to the artillery company of the new 22nd Division, I was scattered when I retreated, and I followed the military doctor all the way and mixed together, what is your name?" Ma Dazhuang, who looked like a black iron tower, didn't care whether Hou San was willing to take care of him or not, he asked Hou San's name vigorously, and Hou San who was angry rolled his eyes to him.

"Shut up to Lao Tzu, there is movement ahead" walked forward only 2 miles away, and the dice, who had been walking in front, suddenly jumped back, and pulled the two female soldiers who didn't know anything into the bushes with a cold face. Then the guys who were squatting in the bushes closed their mouths and nervously pointed ahead with their rifles, for fear that a group of fierce Japanese soldiers would rush over if they were not careful. After a few minutes, instead of showing up, the expected Japanese army emerged from the bushes, a green wolf, a unique wolf in the Burmese jungles, with a dark blue coat that likes to haunt the jungle alone.

"There's meat to eat," the big black man Ma Dazhuang grinned, they were all eating wild vegetables and tree bark all the way, if they hadn't grabbed food in a village on the way, they would have starved to death. This seemingly vicious green wolf is in Ma Dazhuang's eyes, it is a fragrant piece of barbecue, and the little hand that is about to crawl out of his throat makes Ma Dazhuang forget the ferocity of the green wolf, and he is already wondering in his heart whether he should eat the front leg or the hind leg first for a while.

"Don't speak, lie down" Tang Cheng's eyes suddenly tightened to the size of a needlepoint, and it was the Japanese army who chased the green wolf out of the bushes, and the green wolf that everyone saw was chased by the Japanese army before running over. Ma Dazhuang, who was just about to climb out of the bushes, was pulled down by Hou San beside him, and the military doctor lying on the side covered Ma Dazhuang's mouth stiffly, for fear that his screams would expose everyone's location.

"Pap, pop" two gunshots, the green wolf that Ma Dazhuang regarded as barbecue meat fell straight to the ground, the bullets fired by the Japanese army had penetrated its body, and these Japanese soldiers who also looked like wolves obviously regarded it as a good meal. The green wolf that fell to the ground struggled in pain, its long tongue drooped weakly at the edge of its mouth, its eyes full of despair gradually lost its brilliance with the disappearance of life, and in the face of thermal weapons, the green wolf that had galloped in the jungle was simply vulnerable, its sharp teeth and perfect speed were useless.

The Japanese soldiers who came out of the woods came over with their rifles in their hands, and used the bayonets on their rifles to play with the green wolves that were about to die, and their mouths were still chattering. Zhao Liang, who was lying in the bushes more than ten meters away, had quietly grabbed a grenade in his hand, his heart was beating violently, and he was about to jump out of his chest. They were too close to those Japanese soldiers, and Zhao Liang could hear what they were saying clearly, and Zhao Liang knew from his words that these Japanese soldiers were just sharp soldiers, and there was a Japanese search team behind them.
