Chapter 2228 Ambush

"I think our company commander must be an extraordinary person!" When Sancai praised Shang Zhen, it was already the afternoon of the second day after they won the surprise attack on the cabin.

"Do I need you to tell me that? Didn't he alone kill all the Japanese soldiers who were still able to move when they came up yesterday?" Tang Xiong, who was with Sancai, said disapprovingly.

"Do I need to talk about what happened yesterday? I'm talking about what happened today." Sancai retorted.

"What happened today? Didn't the Japanese devils not come today?" Tang Xiong was puzzled.

"Just because the Japanese didn't come today, it proves that our company commander is different from ordinary people.

You see, we have been guarding here since yesterday afternoon, but the Japanese haven't come.

I am standing here and can still move around. Those people hiding in the woods halfway up the mountain are the same as you. They can lie down if they want, and they can lie down for a while when they are tired.

Looking at the class across the road, I can see clearly that those guys have never been honest.

But you see the place where the company commander stayed was right by the road, and I was watching him the whole time, but he didn't move." Sancai explained patiently.

"Maybe it's lying down too?" Tang Xiong did not agree with Sancai's statement.

"Come on, I can see it clearly, if he moves I can see it clearly, he didn't move at all.

I came back when it was dark and ate something, and stayed there all night.

No one can match our patience.

If you were in my place, you would try it, wouldn't you be swatting mosquitoes and chasing away horseflies?" Sancai continued to speak for Shang Zhen.

"That's true." Tang Xiong admitted that Shang Zhen's staying there without moving was a real skill.

But Tang Xiong couldn't stand up to look, because Sancai was pretending to be a Japanese devil. If he stood up, a 1.8-meter-tall man like him might be seen by some Japanese devils who appeared out of nowhere.

Even wearing the Japanese military uniform is not okay. Where are the Japanese who are 1.8 meters tall?

At this time, Shang Zhen, who was admired by Sancai and Tang Xiong, was sitting cross-legged in the dense bushes on the side of the road. He had made sufficient camouflage on himself. Since he had nothing to do anyway, he smeared his face with grass juice.

Although my body was weakened during the period after my injury, my endurance has definitely improved, Shang Zhen thought to himself.

How did he develop such endurance? It was because when he was sitting cross-legged in meditation, he remembered the words from the Diamond Sutra that Da Lao Ben had told him. He didn't remember the original text, but he did remember the principle.

The general idea is that there is no point in recalling the past because nothing can be changed.

Take him for example. He was a battalion commander, and most of his soldiers were veterans. For example, did he need to take action in the battle yesterday? His soldiers took care of it directly.

There is no point in thinking about the future because there are too many unknown factors.

Shang Zhen has been through a lot and has fought in many battles. He certainly understands that no matter how well-designed a combat plan is, when it is implemented, there will be more or less changes in the enemy situation. It is useless to think too much about it.

Because he understood this principle, Shang Zhen only looked at the current reality, and after sitting for a long time, his mind naturally calmed down.

When his mind calmed down, he found that his ears and eyes became sharper. He guessed that this was how Da Laoben developed his ability.

During the three days when he went back to mobilize troops, Qian Feng had already scouted the surrounding area and heard from the people he met that there were no Japanese strongholds within seven or eight miles around.

It is also because of this that although he opened fire yesterday, he was not worried about the Japanese army coming to support. Of course, if there happened to be Japanese troops passing by on the road at that time, there would be nothing he could do.

However, in order to prevent any further complications, he had made up his mind before he ambushed here. If the trucks delivering supplies to the Japanese stronghold on the mountain did not arrive today, he would lead his troops back tomorrow.

Shang Zhen just sat there, allowing the ants to crawl over his crossed legs. But now he felt his legs were getting numb again, so he finally uncrossed his legs.

Sitting cross-legged in meditation is another experience in life.

Before recuperating from his injury, Shang Zhen had never sat for such a long time.

But when he was sitting there meditating seriously, he found that after sitting cross-legged for a certain period of time, he felt unusual pain in his legs and feet.

It was a pain that went straight to the heart, as if someone was drilling into the soles of my feet.

When the pain became unbearable, he relaxed his legs. But once he relaxed his legs, the pain was gone and they became numb instead.

Shang Zhen couldn't describe the numb feeling, but once the energy came up, he felt like a corpse even though he had already let go of his legs and was lying on the haystack, and his body involuntarily tensed up like a bow!

Shang Zhen was afraid of that feeling.

Now he had been sitting for another afternoon, and his legs were going numb. He didn't dare sit any longer this time. What if the Japanese truck carrying supplies arrived? He had just stretched his legs when he heard a noise in the distance. It was - he identified it again and was sure it was the sound of a car engine.

The Japs are coming!

Shang Zhen quickly got up, grabbed the telescope that had been beside him and looked at the car.

When he was conscripted by the Japanese devils, he even threw away his 20-shot gun, so how could he have a telescope? This telescope was seized just yesterday.

He quickly found the target he wanted to see using the telescope.

He was certainly not looking at the Japanese army's cars, as there were only low hills and mountains here and no roads could be seen farther away. However, he did set up a lookout in the direction of the Japanese army.

When he found a small hill diagonally in front of him, a soldier appeared on an open space on the top of the hill soon after, holding a wooden stick in each hand and starting to gesture up and down.

As soon as he saw the agreed signal, Shang Zhen felt relieved. There were only two Japanese trucks in total, so at least there wouldn't be too many Japanese troops.

Shang Zhen put down the telescope, knelt on the ground, and began to pull the pins of several grenades beside him.

However, he did not throw away the pin he had pulled out, but carefully put it in a pile.

He hasn't seen the Japanese army's cars yet. If there is a special situation and he can't fire, he will have to put the pins back into the grenades.

The sound of the car engines became louder and louder. After a few minutes, a Japanese car finally came around a hill, followed by the second one soon after.

Two? It stands to reason that two cars are not needed to deliver supplies to a dozen people. I wonder what is in one of the cars?

Shang Zhen crouched down, loaded the box gun, placed it next to him and stopped moving.

Since he was very close to the road and the path leading up the mountain was about twenty meters ahead, he had to be careful, so he lay down like this, and his body was also "covered" with bushes!

But there was no way around it. His arm strength was limited and he was afraid that if he was too far away from the intersection, he would not be able to throw the grenade.

Soon, the two Japanese cars drove over.

Shang Zhen, who was lying on the ground and moving, could even feel the shaking of the ground and the dust raised by the passing truck.

The two cars stopped not far after passing him. Shang Zhen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that the two trucks were really delivering supplies to the Japanese troops on the mountain.

As soon as the car stopped, Shang Zhen heard the Japanese soldiers talking, and then some of them started shouting.

Since he didn't understand Japanese, Shang Zhen guessed that it must be the Japanese army calling on the Japanese soldiers on the mountain to come down and carry the bags of grain.

At this point, Shang Zhen could no longer pretend to be dead, he had to move.

He picked up a grenade and stood up slightly until he saw the Japanese car.

Two covered cars were actually parked at the intersection leading up the mountain.

The situation of the car in front was blocked by the car behind, so it was impossible to see, but in the hood of the car behind there were Japanese soldiers holding Type 38 rifles.

The Japanese soldier was sitting in the carriage without moving, his eyes -

Shang Zhen slowly lowered his head and then stopped moving.

He was too close to the Japanese troops, and he didn't dare to make any big moves unless he took action, because the Japanese soldiers sitting in the car were higher than him.

Even if the Japanese army did not see him, they saw the bushes here moving, then he would be exposed.

From yesterday afternoon till now, twenty-four hours have passed. Shang Zhen did not feel that the wait was long. But now, the wait under the noses of the Japanese army has become long. He must wait until his own people take action first.

The reason was that he could attack the Japanese soldiers in the carriage, but he could not see the Japanese driver. Although he could hit the Japanese soldiers in the carriage, he could not hit the driver.

If the Japanese army drove away, no matter how many deaths were left behind, their whereabouts here would be exposed.

If they were accompanied by veterans, they wouldn't be afraid, but they were accompanied by new recruits! The Japanese army was chasing them closely, so it was impossible for them not to suffer casualties!

Shang Zhen didn't dare to move, just waited there neither high nor low.

He heard the Japanese soldiers' shouting getting louder. Maybe the Japanese were angry because the people on the mountain didn't come down to take the food?

Shang Zhen was just thinking about it when he heard gunshots, the sound of a volley gun!

At this moment, Shang Zhen's body seemed to be out of control of his thoughts. He bent down and knocked the grenade in his hand onto a stone that he had prepared in advance. After a pause, he stood up and threw the grenade into the compartment of the truck behind him.

When the explosion sounded, when he raised his body again, his right hand was already holding the box gun, and the gunshots of "bang", "bang", and "bang" rang out like a machine gun.

The reason was that just when he threw the grenade, some Japanese soldiers had already jumped down from the carriage!
