The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2129 New Plan

As night fell, some people in their houses sighed quietly: "Alas, I don't know if we can still live at home tomorrow."

"Then why can't they stay at home? Didn't that group of people say they wanted to join the Eighth Route Army? Aren't they also standing guard at the entrance of the village?" asked the woman.

"What do you know? No matter how powerful they are, they can't withstand a large group of Japanese devils. You see, there will be news tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. The Japanese devils will not come to settle the score. Did the more than ten Japanese devils at the entrance of the village die in vain?

"Okay, go to sleep!" the man said decisively.

The woman didn't dare to say anything, and so their home fell into the silence of the night. But no one really knew whether the village would still be so quiet tomorrow. Maybe there would be constant gunfire and burning houses, or maybe there would be corpses lying around and people crying heartbreakingly!

Also in the dark, someone was whispering to his companion: "Why are you stamping your feet? Are you afraid that the Japanese won't hear you?"

"Isn't it cold? Besides, how could the Japanese come here in the middle of the night?" His companions disagreed with him.

"It's not cold at all! How can the winter in Shandong be compared with the winter in our hometown? Stay quiet!" the person who was giving the lecture said again.

So there was no sound in the darkness here.

These two people were also sentinels sent by Chu Tian.

However, the two sentinels were very far away from the village, almost two miles away, because they were next to the highway.

Even ordinary people knew that the Japanese devils would come to retaliate after they suffered losses, so how could Wang Laomao and Chu Tian not think of it?

So they posted sentries at both ends of the road leading into the village to prevent the Japanese army from attacking.

There was nothing they could do about it. This time they killed all the dozen or so Japanese soldiers, but there were still dozens of puppet soldiers. Since they had to join the Eighth Route Army, they had to follow the Eighth Route Army's discipline. They couldn't kill those puppet soldiers. All they could do was educate them and let them go.

But before those puppet soldiers were released, Chu Tian said these words to them: "After I release you, you'd better not continue to work for the Japanese devils. Think about it yourself. If you lead the Japanese devils to the village to take revenge in a few days, you will definitely be the first to go.

We can let you go this time, but next time you walk in the front, you won’t even have the chance to surrender.”

This was all Chu Tian could say to the puppet soldiers. As for whether they listened to him or not, that was unknown.

The night passed like this.

When it was daybreak, the Japanese and puppet troops who came for revenge did not come, but the middle-aged man successfully brought back the Eighth Route Army. When that man stood in front of Shang Zhenying and his men, there was a burst of "boom". The reason was that the Eighth Route Army soldier who came was actually an acquaintance of Chu Tian and his men, and that man was Xiao Axe!

Leng Xiaozhi and Sun Baoer were unknown whether they were alive or dead. The person the people in Shang Zhenying knew best in the Eighth Route Army was only Xiao Axe. They were close friends who had known each other for a lifetime, so who wouldn't be happy to see an acquaintance? This way, they wouldn't have to worry about not being able to find a way to join the Eighth Route Army!

The excitement only lasted for a short while, and then everyone in the room fell silent again.

That's because when the two met, they naturally asked each other what they knew. However, there was no news about Shang Zhen in Shang Zhen's camp, and the Eighth Route Army didn't know the whereabouts of Leng Xiaozhi and Sun Baoer. It was as if the three people disappeared out of thin air.

Everyone has their own opinions about the three missing people, but no one will say it out loud and no one wants to comfort themselves by deceiving themselves, so doesn't that mean they have to keep quiet?

After a short silence, Chu Tian spoke first: "Xiao Fuzi, do you know where the Japanese puppet troops who came here yesterday came from? You have to come here to take revenge today, right?"

The past is over, so let’s face reality. Chu Tian successfully shifted everyone’s emotions to the present.

"They must have come from Ma Ling Town. The Japanese were heading towards Bao Du Mountain, where they left a squadron. Ma Ling Town is an important location, so the Japanese sent troops to guard it. But we did a good job of clearing the countryside, so they sent people down here to rob us."

It's more than 30 miles away from our village. If the two Japanese soldiers you let go rush back overnight, the Japanese soldiers in Ma Ling Town should have received the news and might have come here by now." Xiao Fuzi began to explain the situation.

I have to say that Little Axe has matured a lot over the past year and described the enemy situation in an orderly manner.

"If that's the case, the people in our village will have to hide in the wild today." The middle-aged man said hurriedly.

Just as Chu Tian said when talking to him yesterday, it is useless to say anything else. The Japanese devils died at the entrance of this village. Did the Japanese devils need a reason to kill Chinese people?

What's more, this time the Japanese army came back to take revenge, to the Eighth Route Army's anti-Japanese base, so the fate of this village can be imagined.

There was a question raised by a Japanese on a certain question-and-answer platform in later generations. The question was: There were many countries that invaded China in history, such as the Eight-Nation Alliance, which consisted of eight national armies. Then why do the Chinese hate the Japanese the most?

The answer with the most likes is that other countries use killing as a means and stealing as a goal, but Japanese militarism is different. They want the Chinese to be destroyed as a nation and exterminate their race!

From this perspective, we can see how many Chinese civilians were killed by the Japanese army during the war of aggression against China!

"A squadron of Japanese devils is a bit too many!" Chu Tian ignored the middle-aged man and said thoughtfully.

"What do you mean by more? They can't all be sent out. Someone has to look after the house." Qian Chuan'er said, and then he asked Xiao Fuzi, "Do you know how many more puppet troops there are?"

"That's really not clear." replied Little Axe.

Chu Tian has said all this, and Xiao Axe still can’t guess what’s going on?

"You want to ambush the Japanese?" He looked surprised, but then he gave himself an explanation, "Yes, there is nothing you guys dare not do."

"It's not even a start yet." Chu Tian said, "It seems a bit late. If we wanted to set an ambush, we should have started yesterday.

But it's hard to say, what if the Japanese don't come today? How about we go check out the terrain first?"

After Chu Tian finished speaking, he looked at Wang Laomao who had been standing aside without saying anything.

Bringing Wang Laomao back would allow them to make the decision, but his mouth was injured and it hurt when he spoke.

But ever since Wang Laomao was rescued, he has tried to say as little as possible but he still says a lot. There is nothing he can do about it since he is the one in charge.

For example, now Chu Tian’s idea is to ambush the Japanese army, but Liu Keqiang and Cheng Peng are beside him, so he has no authority, so Wang Laomao has to give the order.

"Go ahead, go ahead. Who cares how you fight? Save some ammunition. We're going to have a hard life in the future." Wang Laomao hummed like a mosquito.

He really wanted to curse but couldn't, because it was his injury and also because their camp chose to eat horse meat this time!

Horse meat is not like pork, the meat shreds are coarse, and the soldiers were anxious to eat the horse meat because it was stewed so that it was not very mushy. But he was also hungry, so in order to fill his stomach yesterday, he had to eat it. He was in constant pain and happiness.

The pain is because my mouth and cheeks hurt.

Happiness comes from the fact that your stomach is gradually being filled.
