The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2320 Even if there are tens of thousands of enemies, I will still go!

Shang Zhen didn't know that their whereabouts had been exposed. Just as the Japanese troops behind began to mobilize manpower, Shang Zhen was hiding behind the dense leaves and monitoring the front.

The puddle could be seen through the gaps in the trees, and the Japanese army was hiding in the woods opposite the puddle.

After looking for a while, Shang Zhen slowly moved his hand, which was holding a branch of a tree.

It was only after he pulled away the branches that he discovered the Japanese troops.

In order to avoid being discovered by the Japanese army, he certainly would not let go of the branch all of a sudden and cause it to bounce.

He had to "coax" the branch, reducing the strength in his hands, so that the branch would slowly return to its original position.

Finally, when Shang Zhen let go of his hand, the dense branches and leaves naturally closed together, so Shang Zhen's eyes were covered by the green of the leaves.

Shang Zhen whispered to his soldiers. After a while, he left three soldiers alone to monitor the Japanese army, while the rest continued to march towards the saddle.

It was not known whether the Japanese had discovered that they were actually climbing up and down that saddle. If the Japanese sentinels climbed up the trees on the mountain wall again to look out from there, they would be in big trouble!

Shang Zhen was somewhat worried about this.

His wife Leng Xiaozhi once told him that there are two kinds of people in this world, one is called optimists and the other is called pessimists, and you, Shang Zhen, are a pessimist.

Shang Zhen agreed with Leng Xiaozhi's judgment of himself.

But what could he do? This was a habit he had developed from fighting the Japanese for a long time.

The enemy has always been strong and we have always been weak. He and his soldiers don't want to die heroically, so they just want to survive in the cracks. In order to prepare for the enemy's leniency, he has to think of everything.

There is a saying among the people, "Whatever you mutter is bound to come true", which means that people should not think bad things about themselves.

Regardless of whether this statement makes sense or not, it does not apply to Shang Zhen at least.

If Shang Zhen had not been careful, he would have died countless times!

But there was no use thinking about it now, since they were already in the woods.

Shang Zhen’s current idea is that even though the Japanese army is watching from this side of the puddle, and it is not far from the saddle, there are trees everywhere. As long as they don’t make any noise, they can still climb up the mountain under the noses of the Japanese army, no, over the noses of the Japanese army.

The soldiers walked away, and Shang Zhen and the other three followed them.

They didn't know whether there were any Japanese soldiers ahead of them, so they naturally walked very slowly. However, they were completely unaware that behind them, hundreds of Japanese soldiers had formed a line in the woods and were searching from the outside to the inside.

At the beginning, the distance between them and the Japanese army was quite far, but they could not stand the difference between fast and slow!

Finally, Shang Zhen and his team arrived at the foot of the mountain. At this time, everyone, including Shang Zhen, breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they walked very slowly, they were nervous and they were not just strolling in the woods.

"Hurry up the mountain!" Shang Zhen, who finally found no Japanese sentries on the mountain, ordered. The soldiers began to climb the mountain, and Shang Zhen naturally stayed behind to cover their retreat. Tang Li was not in a hurry to climb the mountain. Instead, he whispered to Shang Zhen: "Captain, how did you find out that there were Japanese soldiers hiding on the mountain?"

Tang Li was very curious. He also looked up at the mountain at that time, but why didn't he see any Japanese sentries?

"I didn't see anyone either, but I saw a rope. I guess that's what the Japanese used to climb the mountain or hang themselves." Shang Zhen answered honestly, and then urged him, "Hurry up and get up the mountain!"

"Yes." Tang Li responded and then turned around and climbed up the mountain.

In the end, Shang Zhen was left alone at the foot of the mountain to stand guard.

The trees were very dense, so Shang Zhen naturally didn't notice anything. But when he saw the soldiers climbing up and turned around to climb up, he looked up and saw Niu Jingrui desperately gesturing at him! And his finger was pointing somewhere at the bottom of the mountain!

Shang Zhen turned his head subconsciously, but what could he see? Just green trees.

When he turned his head back, he saw Tang Li anxiously opening his mouth but shouting something silently.

What could he shout? Shang Zhen didn’t know how to read lips, but he could guess that what Tang Li said was “Devil!”

Then, he saw Tang Li leaning against the mountain wall with his hands stretched out to him with his palms facing up, making a come-at-all gesture.

"***" Shang Zhen opened his mouth wide but couldn't make a sound. At the same time, he stretched out his left hand to gesture, one finger, two fingers, three fingers, four fingers, up to five fingers.

He was asking Tang Li how many Japanese troops had arrived.

Then Shang Zhen was shocked to see Tang Li stretch out his palms and shake his hands around!

There were too many Japanese soldiers to count? Shang Zhen was puzzled at first, then he understood.

Since the Japanese troops have come, they must have discovered their traces. So how could there be so few Japanese soldiers coming?

Shang Zhen glanced again at the soldiers who had climbed up the hillside and saw that they had all stopped and some were still touching their guns!

Why are you touching a gun at this time? Shang Zhen was already annoyed. How can you guys shoot at the Japanese while hiding behind the trees?

Judging from the Japs' marksmanship, you are no match for them on flat ground. Now that you are up in the trees with your feet off the ground, how can you still defeat the Japs?

They are shooting you one by one down there, it's like shooting sparrows!

It's not an exaggeration at all. With the marksmanship of the Japanese veterans, it is normal for them to kill a Jiaqiaoer with one shot.

So at this time they all climbed up the steep slope. The problem now was not to let them go to war with the Japanese, but to prevent the Japanese from reaching their current position.

As long as the Japanese didn't reach this position, they would not notice from a distance that there were people in the woods on the hillside!

So, the only way now is to lure the Japanese away as soon as possible!

Realizing this, Shang Zhen looked at the soldiers who had climbed more than 20 meters high, and made a gesture to them to hide and put away their guns. Then he put his hand down and patted his chest, and gave a thumbs up to say "it's over". Then he turned around and headed towards the direction of the Japanese army!

How could the soldiers not understand what Shang Zhen's gestures meant?

Telling them to put away their guns and hide, and patting his chest simply meant that the job of luring the Japanese away was left to me.

That would be fine, but the thumbs-up gesture he gave was just too awesome!

What that means is simply that if I can attract the Japanese, I can do it!

But can Shang Zhen really do it?

How could Shang Zhen know if he could do it? Now was the time to catch up with the fierceness. Even if the enemy was thousands of people, I would go ahead. I had to do it even if I couldn't!
