The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2137 Someone brought a ladder to the upper room!

"You two stay here and find a place to hide. If you see any Japanese soldiers running back into the town, shoot them!

Pay attention to your own safety. No matter how fast those Japanese soldiers who want to return to the town are, they can't be faster than our battalion. As long as you hold on for a while, our battalion will arrive." Qian Chuan'er arranged for Gu Xihuai and Hu Jiuchen to stay where they were.

Qian Chuan'er brought a group of people and came in another carriage. Now they have met up with the people in Wang Xiaodan's carriage.

Maling Town is already in sight, and they can't just drive the carriage directly to the town entrance. Qian Chuan'er still feels regretful halfway. In fact, they can let the puppet army pretend to be back, and then they can catch the Japanese army by surprise.

He didn't know whether Chu Tian had thought of this, but he thought again, maybe Chu Tian was worried that the puppet soldiers would not be willing to come forward, so he didn't want to make things worse!

This is how combat works. In a battle, there may be several options at a certain moment, and sometimes the commander may not be able to find the best one.

In order to prevent the Japanese troops who were definitely rushing back from giving a warning, Qian Chuan'er needed to arrange two people to delay the time for the Japanese troops to enter the town, and during this time they could do some tricks.

The two carriages continued to move forward, but this time they got off the highway and circled around the town of Maling to the northwest, where there was the gap in the wall that Sun Zhian had mentioned.

The gap in the wall is not close to the ground. The lowest point is more than one person's height from the ground.

However, there are some waste bricks underneath, so I guess the townspeople or children here want to take a shortcut and walk through here.

There is nothing strange about this. It is a common human tendency to take shortcuts instead of detours.

There were less than twenty people in Qian Chuan'er's group, so it didn't take much effort for them to climb up.

Qian Chuan'er asked Zhao Wenxi to lead the group to the east gate of the town.

The east gate of the town is the direction that the Japanese and puppet troops took when they went out to seek revenge on their camp. Although Qian Chuan did not make an agreement with Chu Tian, ​​it is likely that Chu Tian and his men would also head to the east gate, after all, it is the closest.

Sun Zhian took Wang Xiaodan's group to the town. According to their idea, of course, they hoped to ambush the compound guarded by the Japanese army in advance.

Judging from the current comparison of the enemy's and our own military strength, and with the support of Qian Chuan'er and the others, it should not be a problem for Shang Zhen's battalion to attack the town. What they want more are the supplies stored here by the Japanese army, especially guns and ammunition!

Although they have now joined the Eighth Route Army, to be honest, they really don't want to live the hard life of the Eighth Route Army with only three guns. The more guns and ammunition, the better.

Moreover, since they want to join the Eighth Route Army, they must have some proof of their allegiance. They have killed so many devils, which is a great victory. If they can also seize the supplies stockpiled by the Japanese army, it will definitely be a great honor!

Perhaps this is the marginal area of ​​the Baoduihu Anti-Japanese Base, and the Japanese army did not carry out a massacre in the town, so there are still civilians in the town.

There was a middle-aged man who was drawing water from the well in front of his house. When he saw Qian Chuaner and his men running by with guns in their hands, ready to shoot at any time, his face became surprised.

At his age, who is the national army and who is the puppet army? He can still tell the difference in the clothes they wear.

He couldn't understand why the Japanese devils had already occupied the town, but there were still Nationalist troops and the Japanese invaders here.

Wang Xiaodan stretched out his hand and made a gesture to the middle-aged man to keep quiet. They didn't take it seriously and continued to move towards the Japanese army's supply storage compound under the leadership of Sun Zhian.

But just as they bumped into the man, they heard a "thump" and they instinctively turned around and raised their guns.

"I, I accidentally dropped the bucket!" the middle-aged man explained quickly.

It turned out that he was so busy watching Qian Chuaner and the others that he lost his concentration and the rope in his hand loosened, so the bucket of water that was almost drawn up fell back into the well.

It turned out to be a false alarm. Wang Xiaodan and his companions continued to move forward, but at this moment they heard gunshots coming from outside the town.

The gunshots were coming from the east side of the town, and there were only a few sporadic shots. Wang Xiaodan and the others guessed that some Japanese soldiers must have run back and were shot by Gu Xihuai and Hu Jiuchen.

As for whether Gu Xihuai and his men could defeat the Japanese army, they no longer cared. Taking over Ma Ling Town was a foregone conclusion. Now it just depended on what they could gain.

Soon, Sun Zhian and Wang Xiaodan hid in a corner and then pointed out that the courtyard was just ahead. Wang Xiaodan carefully poked his head out of the corner and looked forward, and he saw the gate of the deep courtyard.

There was a corner tower next to the gate. A Japanese soldier was holding a rifle with a plaster flag on the gun, looking to the east on the corner tower.

"Fuck!" Wang Xiaodan, who retracted his head, couldn't help but curse. He had a complete sight of the wealthy family.

The reason why he cursed was that this wealthy family was extremely large. The wall of their house was even higher than the wall outside the town!

"How do we get in?" Sun Zhian couldn't help but ask.

"Is there a guardhouse behind this house?" Wang Xiaodan asked back.

"There's nothing behind it, it's just this wall..." Sun Zhian meant that the wall was too high, and if one wanted to climb up, they would have to form a human ladder with several people.

"Go around, go behind this house!" said Wang Xiaodan.

There are still 140 to 50 people left in Shang Zhen’s camp, plus another 140 to 50 puppet troops. Chu Tian has no intention of attacking all of them together, and he will certainly not do so now that Wang Xiaodan is leading only a few people.

Shang Zhen and his battalion have formed their own combat style, which is basically to observe the situation before taking action, conceal combat intentions, resolutely not attack by force if possible, not attack easily, and after attacking, output the maximum firepower!

This kind of fighting style has been integrated into the bones of all their veterans!

Wang Xiaodan and his men began to circle around the wealthy family's house, and when they reached the back wall of the house, they suddenly heard intensive gunfire and grenade explosions from the east end of the town.

Wang Xiaodan exchanged glances with the others. No need to ask, this was Chu Tian with a large army. It would be quick for Qian Chuaner to lead his men to attack the town.

"Stacking people, building a human ladder!" Wang Xiaodan said in a low voice.

However, when one of them was squatting by the wall and the other was lifting that person's legs to stand on his shoulders, they suddenly heard movement behind them. The one who had no ladder turned around hurriedly and raised his gun, while the soldier who had already jumped onto the other person's shoulders also jumped down.

The gun was pointing at an open gate of a house. A woman in her 30s was looking at them in shock, holding a swill bucket in her hand.

"Don't be afraid, we are the Eighth Route Army!" Wang Xiaodan reported in time.

Wang Xiaodan certainly understood that in the minds of the common people, the Eighth Route Army was much more useful than the National Army. The National Army not only fought the Japanese invaders but also harmed people, while the Eighth Route Army only fought the Japanese invaders but did not harm people.

When the woman heard what Wang Xiaodan said, her expression relaxed.

"Be alert!" Wang Xiaodan said to the soldier next to him with some dissatisfaction.

We are out here to fight, so how could there be people climbing the wall here, without even a guard nearby, and everyone just "watching the fun"?

But just when Wang Xiaodan and the others started to build the human ladder again, there was movement behind them. When they looked back, they saw that the woman who had already returned to the house came out again.

She was actually holding up one end of a ladder with her hands, and behind her was an old lady who looked to be at least 50 years old!

Who knows whether these two women are mother and daughter-in-law or mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? Seeing that the Eighth Route Army was about to fight the Japanese, they brought out their own ladders!

"You must not harm the common people in the future. Look, when you are sleepy, your lover will send you a pillow. When you need to climb up to the roof to fight the Japanese, someone will send us a ladder!" Wang Xiaodan whispered to Sun Zhian.

Wang Xiaodan just said it casually, and then he went to get the ladder. He didn't notice that the woman blushed when he said that!
