The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2300 Chapter 2 Backfire

On the top of Qingfeng Mountain, Chinese officers and soldiers could not find where the two infantry guns were placed by the Japanese army even with binoculars.

But now Shang Zhen, who was hiding in the woods, could see it clearly.

The two Japanese infantry guns were no longer in their previous positions, but had moved forward and to the right.

Moving forward, it is now only more than 500 meters away from Qingfeng Mountain.

You know, the distance is quite far. When Shang Zhen did not return, the two Japanese cannons were at least three or four miles away from Qingfeng Mountain!

Moved to the right, originally the two cannons were close to where they were hiding, but after moving to the right, they are now more than 300 meters away from them.

Of course, it can also be stated that the two Japanese guns were more than 300 meters in front of them.

The Japanese army also dug two pits as artillery shelters, and the muzzles of the guns were just above the mound in front. At least until now, the companions on Qingfeng Mountain have not discovered that the Japanese army moved the artillery here. It is estimated that the Japanese army did it at night.

It is estimated that the 224th Regiment guarding Qingfeng Mountain did not expect that the Japanese army would move the artillery so close to them.

This time, Shang Zhen and his men brought a few grenade launchers.

However, the grenade launcher was only prepared for emergencies, and Shang Zhen did not intend to use it to destroy the Japanese artillery positions.

First, even if his level of using grenade launchers was compared with Chu Xiong and his men, it was still a little worse, and now none of his soldiers were good at using grenade launchers.

Second, the lethality of a grenade launcher is ultimately limited.

Even if the missile hit the target, it would only kill or injure the Japanese artillerymen. But if they wanted to blow up the Japanese infantry artillery, that would be unlikely.

No matter which country the artillery comes from, there is still a certain distance between the large pile of shells at the back and the guns in the front.

Shang Zhen didn't dare to guarantee that even if he used a grenade launcher to hit the Japanese artillery box, he would be able to detonate it.

If he only killed the Japanese artillery but failed to destroy their cannons, it would be a bit unworthy for him to take such a big risk and bring people to launch a surprise attack.

Shang Zhen thought of tying the grenades he brought into cluster grenades to directly destroy the Japanese artillery.

This involved close-range blasting, and they had to sneak up on the Japanese artillery positions in the dark.

But man proposes, God disposes. How could he have imagined that the Japanese army would move their artillery positions?

Not to mention that it is not dark yet, even after dark it would be unlikely for them to reach the artillery position directly.

There was a pile of rocks between them and the Japanese artillery position, which was a place they had to pass through directly. Did they really think the Japanese were blind and deaf?

Now Shang Zhen is observing with a telescope, looking for new opportunities.

But this opportunity is not easy to find.

Shang Zhen had been looking through the telescope for more than half an hour, but still couldn't find any flaws in the Japanese army.

It was impossible to cross it.

Shang Zhen turned his head and looked at the rear of the Japanese army. There were mountains and trees there, but he did not find any signs of Japanese activities on the mountains or in the woods.

But now we can only see from a distance, who knows if there are really Japanese troops there?

I don’t know if the Japanese will fire flares at night.

If the flares are not fired, can he lead his men through the open ground in front and go around to the artillery position on the right?

After looking for a while, Shang Zhen couldn't see anything special. He could only regard crossing the open area as a possibility for his battle this time. He turned the telescope back and continued to observe the artillery position.

The Japanese artillery position was between the rocks and a forest. The forest was quite close to the Japanese army, only about 50 to 60 meters away.

However, Shang Zhen did not find any signs of Japanese military activity in the woods.

Perhaps he could lead his men to the woods and get close to the Japanese artillery positions in the woods.

So, how to get to that grove? Shang Zhen thought of the open space behind the Japanese army that he had just seen.

It is not possible to go straight through, so you need to lead people to the right, and then cross the open area after reaching the corresponding location, and then go around to the woods.

Thinking of this, Shang Zhen pulled his body back and walked to the right under the cover of the woods with the soldiers hiding behind him.

No soldier asked why, and no soldier spoke. This was of course because the Japanese army was very close to them. Even after they detoured here, several Japanese soldiers were only a few dozen meters away from the woods.

After walking some distance back, when Shang Zhen looked outside the woods again, they had reached the opposite side of the open area he had observed before. He was a soldier, monitoring the enemy in front, while he and Hu Sheng moved back along the woods again.

Shang Zhen, who has rich combat experience, knows that the more anxious he is at this moment, the more anxious he should be.

No matter how much effort you put in now, you must return to the ideal position. Only in this way can you succeed in one strike and retreat calmly, then all the efforts will be worth it.

More than half an hour later, Shang Zhen was pleasantly surprised to find that the Japanese army had not set up any guards in the woods and mountains behind him!

The Japanese army paid the price for their unfamiliarity with the terrain. Perhaps in their view, the surrounding mountains were insurmountable, and they did not expect that a small Chinese force like Shang Zhen had already cut off their retreat.

Shang Zhen whispered a few words in Hu Sheng's ear, and Hu Sheng returned the same way. Not long after, their platoon of soldiers met Shang Zhen again.

When dusk fell and visibility decreased, Shang Zhen and his men covered each other and ran quietly to the other side.

When the visibility was still a few dozen meters, Shang Zhen and his team actually entered the woods he had discovered earlier, which was only a few dozen meters away from the Japanese artillery position.

Was this all going too smoothly? Shang Zhen himself felt unbelievable.

However, as the saying goes, the truth cannot be false. Now Shang Zhen and others can hear the voices of the Japanese soldiers not far away.

Shang Zhen whispered something to Hu Sheng, and Hu Sheng then whispered Shang Zhen's orders one by one.

As for Shang Zhen himself, he moved forward very carefully with only a box gun.

However, just before he came out of the woods, he suddenly heard the voices and footsteps of Japanese soldiers coming from the other side of the woods, and even some strange sounds mixed in.

Judging from the sound, there must be three or five Japanese soldiers.

This sound is the kind that is sandwiched between the sounds of the Japanese soldiers' voices and footsteps. Why does it sound so disgusting?

Shang Zhenzhen suddenly realized something, his nostrils twitched a few times, and he finally confirmed it!

For a moment, even at this tense moment, Shang Zhen felt a little amused.

The Japanese army moved their artillery positions farther away and closer to the Chinese positions. This was undoubtedly a disadvantage for Shang Zhen, who was planning to launch a sneak attack.

But what he didn't expect was that according to the original position of the Japanese artillery, they should not have used the water source here, but they used it in advance!

I just threw croton seeds into the water source where the Japanese army got water as a prank, and it actually worked!

But the Japanese soldiers I made were all suffering from diarrhea, and they couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, so it would be very difficult for me to launch a sneak attack!

Alas, it really backfired!
