Rise from the sword

Chapter 131 Wang Xikui's Waiting...
"This devil..."

"A bunch of beasts."

On a hilltop, Wang Xikui, who was covered in green branches all over his body, was lying in the grass. Through the scope, he looked at the devil's gun tower under construction in the distance. After observing silently for a long time, the old hunter cursed.

With the Devil's Pagoda as the center, the mountains and forests within one kilometer of the vicinity were barren, the thick trees were cut down, and the small bushes were burned. Even many winter wheats that were about to be harvested in the fields were trampled and burned.

There are some fire traces that extend far, far along the mountains and forests.

"To cut down the surrounding mountains and forests, and even burn the winter wheat. Didn't this fucking cut off the livelihood of the common people? You fucking devil."

On the side, the observer Shunzi who was holding a binoculars was also watching with gritted teeth.

Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water.

Right now, the village where the devils are building gun towers and roads is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The village as a whole is in a depression. The three nearby mountains are lined with layers of dry land. There are many fruit trees and chestnut trees in the fields. The people in the surrounding villages are all Live on this mountain.

The devils chopped and burned, the forests disappeared, and most of the fields that the common people had planted not long ago were also destroyed.

Without fields and crops, how do these ordinary people survive?
"Hmph, where are these devils still propagandizing that it is because of our Eighth Route Army that they burn fields and forests."

Wang Xikui's tone was gloomy.

The blue veins in his hands popped.

For an old hunter who has driven mountains for more than 20 years, there is nothing he hates more than burning mountains and cutting down trees.This is completely cutting off the livelihood of hunters and ordinary people.

"Do devils really think that ordinary people are fools?"

The observer Shou Shunzi scoffed at the devil's sophistry, and his tone was extremely disdainful: "They came to the village to burn, kill, loot and torture, and they didn't give people a way to live. Why do you blame us for resisting?"

It's been so long, the devil wouldn't think that there are still people who believe in this?
In the beginning, this set of rhetoric that confuses black and white can really deceive a few people. At that time, there were still many people who resisted the Eighth Route Army. But now, the nature of the devils is exposed, burning, killing, looting and torture everywhere. How many people will believe these nonsense?
Wang Xikui did not speak, but sneered.

The devil had a very good idea. He burned the surrounding trees and haystacks, making the Eighth Route Army lose its hidden ambush site, and then built a large number of bunkers around it, arranged a large number of sentry posts to prevent shelling, and sent small patrols to patrol nearby .

But is the method of the independent regiment just bombarding this?

Innocent!

Moreover, the only place to hide in the mountains is the woods?

Can you devil dig all the ravines?Can it break rocks?

joke!

It was noon at this time, and the sun was fierce and hot in May. Many devils who patrolled and guarded the hills were dizzy from the sun.

On the top of a mountain near the village, a Devil Mountain Cannon was lying in the bunker, and the gloomy muzzle could still be seen here. From time to time, dozens of devil patrols haunted the nearby mountain road.

On the open space at the entrance of the village, the foundation of the gun tower has been leveled and compacted. Several devils are pouring reinforced concrete for the gun tower and laying bricks and stones. Widen the trench.

Judging from the scale, the devil obviously intends to build a cannon building here, a cannon building that can station nearly a hundred people.

Looking into the distance along the entrance of the village, two mules and horses paved with bluestone slabs extend to the distance. The devils are forcing the villagers to widen the roadbed so that the horses can pass cars.

This village is the intersection of two nearby horse trails. A large number of mule and horse caravans pass by every year, so this village is quite prosperous, no worse than ordinary towns. This is the fundamental reason why the devil chose to build a gun tower here.

Controlling here is equivalent to cutting off a channel leading to the base area, which can prevent the flow of materials to the base area.

"There are no devils hiding near us."

Holding up the binoculars and looking around for a long time, Shunzi said.

After being severely beaten, the devil also became cunning, and set up a lot of hidden sentries nearby, which caused the independent group to suffer a few losses. Yesterday, several soldiers who came to investigate were hit by the devil.

"Walk···"

Taking advantage of the little devil being dazzled by the sun, Wang Xikui bent over, holding a sniper rifle tied with gray cotton cloth in one hand, and walked towards the devil's bunker in the distance.At the same time, he waved his hand, motioning for Shunzi to follow.

The two hunters, one old and one young, followed the shadow of the rock wall to a bunker of the devil.

The two came to a rock and took shelter. It was about three miles away from the gun tower and about 500 meters away from the devil's outer security position.Because of the long distance, there are still many forests left here, which are not easy for devils to find, and there is a mountain road behind, which is convenient for retreating.

"410 meters..."

By measuring the distance with the reticle on the scope, Wang Xikui obtained the precise distance to the nearest devil bunker.

That was his goal this time.

There are six devils hiding in the bunker.

Take out the silencer from the carrying bag and install it, pull the bolt, load the bullet, put your eyes close to the scope, and look through the lens to a devil's security position in the distance. a sculpture.

There are ghost patrols nearby. The devils even set up a cannon on the mountain. It is very dangerous to shoot here. Once found, the devils will immediately surround them. It is difficult to escape, so he has to wait...
wait for a chance...

With more than 20 years of hunting career and more than a year of actual combat experience, this old hunter who is nearly forty years old is full of patience.

Behind him, Shunzi was covered with branches, wearing a halo of grass on her head, holding up binoculars to look around for vigilance.At the same time, the other hand took out a grenade from his waist, gently unscrewed the back cover and placed it in front of him.

The breeze blew across the ground, raising a cloud of dust, and the leaves rustled. Occasionally, there was the sound of cicadas and the crackling of branches. After the devils burned down the nearby forest, these noises became more and more frequent.

Although the mountains and forests are peaceful, there is never peace in the mountains and forests.

······
"Major, Your Excellency the Captain ordered us to speed up the construction, and we must complete the construction of the gun tower the day after tomorrow."

In the village, in a masonry house, the radio staff was talking about the latest orders he received.

There are still two and a half days... After hearing the order, the captain in charge of building the gun tower here nodded.

The project is nearing completion, two and a half days is enough.

"How about the other teams?"

asked the captain.

The staff officer quickly replied:

"Xiangshuitan, Shilibao, and Dongzhuang gun towers have all been built. Your Excellency, the captain, has issued a blockade order to prohibit anyone from passing. All caravans leading to the Eighth Route Army base area have been intercepted and all materials have been confiscated."

"The artillery building in Wangzhai Township was attacked by the Eighth Route Army today. Although the attack was repelled by the patrol and dozens of attackers were killed, the construction progress will be delayed for half a day due to the attack."

"madness!"

The devil's captain snorted coldly.

After the imperial army is prepared, the attack will have no effect, and any resistance will be futile, even if the so-called main force of the Eighth Route Army, the Li Yunlong Independent Regiment, is stationed here.

so what?

The so-called elite of a mere regiment is meaningless in the face of the huge gap between the two countries, the powerful imperial army, and the general situation.

The mantis arm is the car.

call····

Suddenly, a gust of wind whizzed past, and the whistling wind could be heard in the room.

The mountainous area of ​​Jindi is windy, and it is a strong wind.

The captain didn't care, this situation is very common.

suddenly,

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Two sharp whistling sounds sounded,

Before letting the captain of the devil figure out what the sound was, he followed.

Da da da····

There was another burst of intensive gunfire.

This is the sound of machine guns mixed with rifles, and they are our own Type [-] machine guns and rifles, but there are not many of them.

The enemy came to harass? ····The gunfire did not make the captain panic. He stood up, adjusted his military uniform, and then walked out calmly. When he walked out the door, the gunfire had stopped.

"Report."

Soon someone reported the situation to the captain: "A position on the left wing was attacked and two soldiers were killed. We..."

Having said this, the reporting devil paused, and then continued:

"We didn't find the attacker's location, so..."

"idiot···"

Hearing this, the devil captain immediately slapped him.

·····
"Walk·"

Covered by the sound of the wind, the two devils were shot dead with three shots, and Wang Xikui left without looking back.

Although the sniper rifle in his hand has a silencer, which can greatly reduce the explosion sound and muzzle fireworks when shooting, so that the devil cannot find the position of the shooter in the first place, but the supersonic bullet itself has a sonic boom , that is, the 'swoosh, swoosh' sound when the bullet is fired, which is still very obvious.

Therefore, the old hunter Wang Xikui used the whistling sound of the wind to cover up the screaming sound of the bullets.

However, there is a gain and a loss. The violent wind obscured the gunshots, but also affected the bullets.

He fired three times, one missed and two hit.

"All right."

After hiding the grenade in their hands and making it into a simple mine, Shunzi and Wang Xikui quickly left along the mountain road.

Only a bunch of devils are left searching like crazy wasps.
