"Captain, there is movement ahead, Xiaoshui said that they found a place where bandits were hidden." It took more than an hour, exhausted Tang Cheng They appeared on a hill full of miscellaneous trees. After crossing the first hill, Tang Cheng divided his 25 regiments into three parallel arrangements on the left and right wings and the middle as he expected, and when most of them were exhausted, the regiments who had been walking on the right flank came with the news that their efforts were not in vain, and the regiments on the right wing finally found the traces of the bandits.

found the traces of the bandits, which somewhat made Tang Cheng, who was at a loss, a little happy, and left a signpost for Liu Goat who followed behind, and Tang Cheng moved to the right flank of the route with the group around him. "Xiao Shui originally wanted to find a place to, but he found that a piece of turf not far in front of him suddenly moved, this kid thought that his eyes were wrong, so he called Lao Zhao who was with him, but Lao Zhao saw that the piece of turf that Xiao Shui said was peeled by someone, and Lao Zhao said that there were people hidden under the turf." The group who came to report the news explained to Tang Cheng all the way, so that Tang Cheng could have a pre-understanding in his heart.

There are still such masters in the militia group who can see that there is something wrong with the turf in the field, Tang Cheng really didn't expect it, but if what the group said is true, then does this bandit hiding under the turf want to continue to attack his own wave of people? Didn't he know that Lu Dao was just one person attacking more than 100 people, and they were just joking? With a full stomach full of questions, Tang Cheng and the others moved to the position of squatting on the right wing of Tuanding, and looked in the direction of the finger of the Tuan Ding surnamed Zhao, Tang Cheng saw a weedy field with low bushes.

"Follow the leftmost bush to the right of the bush 2 meters, which is slightly above the ground." Tuan Ding, surnamed Zhao, pointed out the location for Tang Cheng, but Tang Cheng couldn't see anything abnormal. "Don't worry, keep staring at it and don't change positions, you should be able to see the fame." Under Lao Zhao's guidance, Tang Cheng stared at the piece of turf that he pointed out, and sure enough, two minutes later, the grass slope that Tang Cheng had been watching slowly bulged, and the grass slope that was originally slightly above the ground now turned into a bulge.

"Are there any other discoveries? You use this to look around. Tang Cheng lowered his voice and looked at Lao Zhao beside him, and handed over his binoculars, while signaling the surrounding group members not to make a sound. Lao Zhao took the telescope handed by Tang Cheng in the envious eyes of the surrounding people, and carefully searched the surroundings at an extremely slow speed, and after confirming it again and again, he shook his head and returned the telescope to Tang Cheng, who was waiting for an answer.

"Just one is fine." Tang Cheng, who didn't think too much about it, slowly aimed his rifle at the bulging bulge, and after the target was put into the crosshair, Tang Cheng pulled the trigger. The bullet that "snapped" out of the chamber drilled into the bulging bulge, not looking at the result of his own shooting, Tang Cheng, who was lying on the ground, quickly pulled the bolt to push the next bullet into the chamber, and before the regiments around him woke up, the second bullet fired by "snap" Tang Cheng also accurately hit the bulge.

"I'll go" Before Tang Cheng got up, Lao Zhao beside him had already rushed over with his rifle, and at a distance of less than 100 meters, Lao Zhao, who was nimble with his hands and feet, only took a short time to run to the bulge. Pulling out the bayonet to uncover the piece of turf that he had identified, Lao Zhao dragged out a black-clothed corpse that had been shot twice from under the turf, and after squatting down to inspect the corpse, Lao Zhao turned around and waved at Tang Cheng's side.

"This person shouldn't be a bandit from Beishan" looked around the corpse on the ground, and Tang Cheng, who was squatting on the ground, was a little suspicious that this black-clad corpse was not a bandit from Beishan. The corpse dragged out by Lao Zhao from under the turf did not find anything that could identify it, and all Tang Cheng could find was a Mauser rifle and 50 rifle bullets issued by the national army, the rifle was eighty percent new and without any markings, and the only thing that Tang Cheng could suspect was the corpse's dress.

Taking off the mille-feuille cloth shoes on the corpse's feet, Tang Cheng looked carefully at the socks on the corpse's feet, "This guy's socks are foreign goods, this kind of socks are sold for almost a big ocean in Shanghai, and it is impossible to sell this kind of socks in a small place like Mengcheng." No one trafficked these socks to the city, and the bandits in the northern mountains could not obtain them by robbing the road. Besides, bandits are used to walking mountain roads, so they won't wear this kind of mille-feuille shoes to wander around the mountains, this guy must have come from outside the mountains, and he is not a native of Mengcheng. ”

Just with the shoes and socks on the corpse's feet, Tang Cheng said such a big thing about Balabala, and Liu Goat, who arrived later, did not expect that while he was quite relieved, Liu Goat suddenly remembered the horseshoe prints he found on the fork in the road. "Remember those horseshoe prints we found on the fork in the road? Is it possible that this person is one of those riders? The guy coming from the direction of Bengbu. Tang Cheng also somewhat agreed with Liu Goat's opinion, which just confirmed the surprise of the corpse and the bandits.

"Wait, take off his socks" Tang Cheng, who had already turned around and was about to leave, suddenly stopped, Liu Goat suspected that the black-clothed man hiding under the turf might be from the direction of Bengbu, and the suspicious Tang Cheng suddenly remembered those Japanese spies who were intercepted outside the Zhonghua Gate. Tang Cheng had already encountered Japanese spies and infiltrators disguised as Chinese civilians more than once, and these Japanese soldiers disguised as Chinese could speak fluent Chinese, and no one would have thought that they would face a Japanese without careful identification.

Tang Cheng's words also made Liu Goat stunned, he was also present when he intercepted the group of Japanese spies at Zhonghua Gate that day. "Do you suspect that he was disguised as a Japanese soldier?" Liu Goat didn't dare to say his suspicions out loud, but just stood with Tang Cheng and whispered quietly. These regiments around them are so strenuous and useless to fight bandits, if they really knew that the corpse lying in front of them belonged to the Japanese army, they would be able to disperse and flee back to the county seat now.

Tang Cheng did not directly answer Liu Goat's inquiry, but nodded gently, he was only doubting the identity of this corpse, and Tang Cheng could not answer until he got definite evidence. The two nimble Tuanding had already stripped off the corpse's shoes and socks at this time, and a pair of thick calloused feet were exposed in the sight of Tang Cheng and Liu Goat. "This guy is used to walking long distances, you can see this calloused skin on his feet." Liu Goat picked up a piece of wood on the ground and played with the corpse's feet, and Tang Cheng naturally saw those calluses.

Taking the wooden branch in Liu Goat's hand, Tang Cheng slowly inserted the wooden branch between the thumb and two fingers of the corpse's left foot, and the result made Liu Goat and Tang Cheng look calm, the gap between the thumb and two fingers of the corpse's left foot was exactly the same as those Japanese spies intercepted by Tang Cheng outside the Zhonghua Gate, it seems that Tang Cheng guessed correctly, this guy may have something to do with the Japanese army. "This gang of bandits is really damned, for what is flying and mixing with the little devils." Liu Goat got up and looked at the mountains in the distance, and the hatred in his eyes was clear.

"Strip off his clothes" Tang Cheng threw away the wooden branch in his hand, and ordered his subordinates to pull out the clothes of the corpse, and the regimental members who didn't know what was going on looked at Liu Goat, who looked up and was silent, and it was okay to peel off the shoes and socks of the corpse, but they were indeed a little puzzled about the stripping of the corpse's clothes. "Get out of the way" Seeing that the group members didn't make a move, Tang Cheng used his shoulders to push away a few group members standing beside him, and peeled off the clothes on the corpses by himself.

After carefully examining the pig-like corpse, Tang Cheng's face was as ugly as Liu Goat's, and the clothes worn by the corpse were no different from ordinary Chinese, but his pants were not wearing big pants like Chinese, and Tang Cheng saw a crotch cloth unique to the Japanese. The crotch cloth is only worn by Japanese men, and the Chinese will never wear such a thing, and the bandits in Beishan will actually collude with the Japanese soldiers, and Tang Cheng is dumbfounded.

Tang Cheng was not afraid of fighting with the Japanese army, he was really worried about the regiments brought out from Mengcheng around him, these guys had never fought at all, nor had they seen the cruelty and bloodshed of the battlefield. Tang Cheng turned his face to look at Liu Goat, he hoped that Liu Goat would order the retreat to the county seat, although he knew that Liu Goat might not make such a decision, but he still had a glimmer of hope.

The word "beat" Liu Goat obviously popped out from between his teeth, and Tang Cheng Zhilu said that Liu Goat made this decision with great determination, and led a group of novices who had never been on the battlefield to face the possible Japanese army, and any officer of the national army would probably not make such a decision. In battle, we are not afraid of losing, but we are afraid of a rout when we exchange fire with the enemy, and once the advance is in a rout, then the entire defense line may become a mess, and when the time comes, as long as the enemy continues to move forward, what awaits them can only be a rout and massacre on the whole line.

"Okay, then fight." Knowing that he couldn't make Liu Goat change his mind, Tang Cheng immediately dispelled this idea and began to select people from the more than 50 people in the front team he commanded to reorganize into a team. "I'll take these people first, and the rest of the front team will walk on my flank, in case of bandits, there will be a support for each other." Tang Cheng concealed the news of the possible Japanese troops in Beishan according to Liu Goat's instructions, and left first with the 24 regiments he selected, while Liu Goat, who commanded the rear team, would follow up 300 meters away from them.
