Bright Sword: From Northwest Shanxi to Shangganling

Chapter 266 I'll Let You Run 20 Meters First

The puppet army set up a checkpoint on the road outside the Baijiazhuang artillery tower.

Checking passers-by is also their important task.

However, compared with the people near the county town, the people in this place are extremely poor and have no money at all.

"Damn it, when will this end?" complained the puppet soldier who was on guard.

He bears the infamy of being a traitor just to make some money.

There's nothing you can do in this godforsaken place. You can't even pick up a basket of horse manure.

"Hold on, in half a month, you will have to change your post."

"Next time we should move to the artillery tower near Jiyi Town, and then we should be able to make some money." The squad leader next to him said casually.

As a puppet soldier who has been there for several years, he is very familiar with all the procedures.

He had even been in and out of the Eighth Route Army three times, and he knew the route procedures very well.

"Hopefully."

"Hey, squad leader, is someone coming?"

"Yes, there are people! Everyone get ready!"

The one jogging towards this side is President Huang.

"Stand!"

"Boss! Boss! I have something important to report!" President Huang, who was being pointed at by a gun, stopped.

"It's President Huang, what's the matter?"

The puppet army's food came from nearby villages, so they naturally knew the presidents of the maintenance associations of several surrounding villages.

"Three people came to Xiaohuangzhuang. I feel something is wrong. They look like the Eighth Route Army. You should go and check it out."

"Bullshit! Why would the Eighth Route Army go to Xiaohuangzhuang? Don't talk nonsense!" the puppet army squad leader shouted.

What a joke, they are traitors and they usually wish they could avoid the Eighth Route Army.

Going to Xiaohuangzhuang at this time would be like seeking death, wouldn't it?
"It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly. Those people were all wearing bandages. They were wounded soldiers and they didn't have guns." President Huang hurriedly explained.

"Wounded soldiers? Why are they going to Xiaohuangzhuang?" The puppet soldiers looked at each other.

The wounded Eighth Route Army soldier didn't even have a gun, so this is a great contribution.

"Do you know the old man at the east end of the village? There seems to be a son of his. He should be here to recuperate." President Huang said.

“Your message is very timely!”

"Brothers, let's go to Xiaohuangzhuang and take a look!"

The puppet army squad leader left four people to continue defending the checkpoint, and he took six people with him and ran towards Xiaohuangzhuang in a hurry.

"hurry up!"

After running only two miles, several puppet soldiers were already out of breath.

However, in the face of credit, they still persevered all the way.

"boom!"

"Don't even move!"

The puppet army squad leader kicked the door open and rushed in quickly, followed by the others.

This is a great achievement, and no one wants to fall behind.

However, when the six people rushed in, they were dumbfounded.

be cheated!
There were two light machine guns on the kang pointing at them.

Moreover, more than a dozen people rushed in from outside the courtyard wall, with their guns pointed at them.

"Don't move!" "Don't move!"
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot!" the puppet soldiers shouted hurriedly.

"We surrender, surrender!"

Several puppet soldiers hurriedly placed their guns neatly on the ground.

After the control was completed, several people were pushed into the yard next to them.

"Are you their leader?" Chen Chengxing asked the leading puppet soldier.

"Yes, I am their squad leader." The puppet soldier nodded and bowed.

"Want to die or live?"

"I want to live, I want to live!"

It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. Who would want to die when they can live?

"Well, as long as you cooperate, I promise not to kill you."

"No problem, I'll cooperate, for sure!"

Seeing that the puppet troops were so cooperative, Chen Chengxing gestured to Chao and asked him to lead the puppet troops to set off.

Ma Zhiyuan took two soldiers who had changed into civilian clothes and escorted the puppet troops all the way back to the artillery tower.

To make it more natural, they were allowed to carry the guns themselves, but all the bullets had been removed.

On the road, in order to prevent the puppet army from having any evil intentions.

Ma Zhiyuan decided to add to the fun.

"Do you guys see that bird over there?"

Ma Zhiyuan pointed to a sparrow standing on a tree 10 meters away.

"I saw it, I saw it."

Although the puppet troops did not know what Ma Zhiyuan meant, they still cooperated.

"boom!"

Before the others could react, Ma Zhiyuan swung the pistol in his hand and shot the sparrow down with one shot.

"Is your shooting skill okay?" Ma Zhiyuan looked at them and smiled.

"If you want to run, go ahead. I'll let you run 20 meters first."

"No, no, no, no, why would we run? No, no, no."

Several puppet soldiers shook their heads like rattles.

"If you know what's interesting, then cooperate."

"No problem, no problem."
When they got close to the staircase, Ma Zhiyuan and the other two had their hands behind their backs.

However, the revolvers in their hands were all pointed at the puppet soldiers next to them.

Naturally, no one dared to move these people.

"Let them come over."

Ma Zhiyuan lowered his head and whispered to the puppet squad leader next to him, "You guys! Come over here and take them back!"

"Damn it, we are so tired!" shouted the puppet army squad leader.

The few people who were on guard did not suspect anything and immediately trotted over.

"class"

Before they could finish their words, they saw the muzzles of guns pointing at them.

Several people raised their hands in the air in a flash.

It's not that they don't want to resist, but the rifles have to be bolted and it's too late.

After controlling several people, Ma Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Pushing all the puppet troops into the artillery tower, Ma Zhiyuan ordered the soldiers to go up to the top of the tower to send a signal while giving the order:

"Take off all your clothes! Tie each other up with belts!".
On the hill not far away, Chen Chengxing saw the Japanese plaster flag on the artillery tower moving up and down, and he knew that Ma Zhiyuan had successfully taken over the artillery tower.

"Let's go!" Chen Chengxing put away the telescope and ordered.

It was still quite a distance to the airport and he had no time to waste.

When the cavalry company passed through the artillery tower, Ma Zhiyuan followed.

Only two soldiers were left to control the puppet army.

Now is not the time to kill these puppet troops.

There is a telephone in this artillery tower, and the Japanese may call to check on us at any time, so we need the puppet army to provide cover.

However, after the troops withdraw, these guys will have to die in order to protect Xiaohuangzhuang.

It’s just that these puppet soldiers don’t know it yet.

Chen Chengxing led the cavalry company and marched quietly all the way.

At night, we finally arrived at the outskirts of Taiyuan.

"According to intelligence, there is only one squadron of Japanese soldiers at the Japanese airport, and there are dozens of puppet soldiers as coolies."

"We are outnumbered and cannot attack by force."

"My decision was to select 10 people, put them in puppet army uniforms, and find a way to sneak in."

"Except for the Mounted Scouting Platoon, all other troops were split into two."

"We will attack the strongholds and artillery towers between Nantun Town and the airport, and then go straight to Taiyuan North Gate to block the enemy reinforcements in the city."
Chen Chengxing explained his battle plan to several platoon leaders of the cavalry company on the map.

Among these, the surprise attack on the airport is the highlight.

Therefore, after finalizing the battle plan, Chen Chengxing asked each platoon leader to nominate personnel.

Finally, after discussion among everyone, 10 soldiers with excellent military qualities were carefully selected.

In order to prepare for this raid, Chen Chengxing even asked Chen Dasijin for gasoline and made a Molotov cocktail.

If you want to destroy enemy aircraft, in addition to cluster grenades, Molotov cocktails are very useful.

At 12 o'clock, the commando team officially set out, following the trenches to find an opportunity to sneak into the airport.

"Damn, the commander is right. The Japanese are on high alert." Wang Cunzhi, the leader of the 4th platoon, gritted his teeth as he watched the patrol teams passing by from time to time.

With such tight defense, it was impossible for them to cut through the barbed wire through the trench and enter the airport.

"Everyone! Follow me!" Wang Cunzhi shouted in a low voice.

Before setting off, Chen Chengxing had already drawn a simple map on the ground and told the commandos the movement trajectory of the Japanese.

Although he didn't know where the captain got the information from, based on his observations, the captain's information was correct.

Therefore, Wang Cunzhi planned to go to the back door to check according to the team leader's situation.

After everyone carefully felt their way to the back door, they discovered that the defense here was lax just as the captain had said.

"Get ready for battle!"

After Wang Cunzhi finished speaking, he waved his hand and quietly began to move forward.

When he reached the wire fence near the back door, Wang Cunzhi took out the pliers he had prepared and gently cut the wire.
However, no matter how careful you are, you cannot defeat the unexpected.

At the machine gun firing point at the back door, the Japanese soldier who was lazily smoking raised his head inadvertently.

"what?"

"What's wrong?" The assistant shooter next to him looked over.

"Look, is there a group of people over there?" the Japanese machine gunner said, pointing several dozen meters away.

"Maybe he's a patrolling soldier." The deputy shooter said indifferently.

"No, that's not right." The machine gunner looked a little serious.

"This place has never been patrolled before."

"Load!" said the machine gunner, and began to turn the gun.

"You're crazy! It will be troublesome if someone gets hurt accidentally."

If the one killed was a Locust Alliance soldier, they would be fined three cups of wine, but if the Locust Army was killed, both of them would have to go to military court.

"That's definitely not the Locust Army. The Locust Army isn't that tall. It's not the Imperial Army either. Their formation isn't that neat."

However, no matter what the machine gunner said, the assistant gunner refused to shoot and started shouting instead.

"Hey! Those people over there! Password!"

The commandos who were marching in a line turned their heads and immediately felt that something was wrong.

The Japs' guns were pointing towards us, and I was afraid they would open fire in the next second.

In that case, it is better to strike first.

"Everyone prepare!"

"Fire!"

"Bang, bang, bang." "Bang, bang, bang."
In order to increase their firepower, Chen Chengxing collected all the Mauser pistols of the cavalry company and equipped all 10 people with 20-shot Mauser pistols.

If you switch the pistol to continuous fire mode, it becomes a small submachine gun.

The strafing fire from 10 Mauser pistols knocked the two men guarding the machine gun post to the ground.

The machine gunner looked at the assistant gunner with blood spitting out of his mouth. If he could move now, he would probably jump up and kill him.

What a fucking pit.

However, although the commando team killed two people, they also alarmed the Japanese.

A shrill alarm sounded in the airport.

The team responsible for guarding the back door also rushed out from the barracks next to it.
