Chapter 52: Battle Preparation

A shrill cry suddenly came from the entrance of the village. As everyone turned their heads suddenly, a man cried out in anger while pushing a large flat cart into the small mountain village.

Looking at the face that was completely covered with blood, dust and tears, every muscle of it was trembling, as if it was so ferocious that it seemed like a ghost. The villagers stared at each other for a long time before someone finally screamed: "Oh my God, it's Old Li!"

Not all villagers are willing to accept the help of Master Miaojie and become heavenly soldiers and generals with endless magic power. In order to avoid the disaster of bandits, some people choose to temporarily leave their homes.

And this person who is known as Lao Li is one of them!

No one knew what Lao Li had experienced, but as long as he looked at his body, all the villagers couldn't help but gasp.

On his body, there were marks left by horse whips, dragging on the ground, and even muscles were scratched by rough ground and rocks. On his skin exposed to the air, the size of fists was also covered with semicircular and purple dents, and the terrible and serious injuries left by horse hooves stepping on human body.

Old Li was so seriously injured, his eyes were already dissipated. No matter how hard the villagers shouted in his ears or how loudly they shouted, his pupils were so dull. In his mouth, he just muttered a few words: "Children, Daniu, Erniu, Nier..."

When a villager finally couldn't help but reach out and lift Lao Li even though he was seriously injured and tried his best to push the straw mat on the wooden cart that was loaded out of the mountain village with the top, suddenly more than a dozen villagers around the flatbed cart, regardless of gender, age and age, gathered around the flatbed cart and vomited.

Lao Li's wife, Lao Li's two sons, Lao Li's daughter who is only thirteen years old. Their bodies are placed on a flatbed cart.

Lao Li's wife and his daughter were naked, and on their faces, they were even more painful to be unable to dissolve even if they died. Just look at the purple and burns left by their fingers and cigarette butts all over their bodies, and then look at their silly bodies, and you can see that they must have been the most inhumane gang rape and torture in their lifetime.

And Lao Li's two sons...they were actually broken open, their hearts.

Their livers were cut off with a knife. Seeing such a terrible scene, even Lei Zhen frowned. It was no wonder that the honest villagers would vomit together.

"It's over, it's over, it's over. Our family is over!"

Old Li, who was pinched hard by someone and poured a bowl of hot water into his stomach, finally recovered his mind a little, and his burning tears gushed out of his eyes that had already dried up, "They are so cruel, so cruel! Our whole family just wants to avoid them.

I just wanted to find a place to be a true farmer. Where did I mess with them? Where did I call them? In front of my ground, more than 20 people took turns to ruin my wife and daughter, my Nier.

Not thirteen years old yet! And my two sons, I just couldn't help but pick up the stones on the ground and hit them, they..."

Speaking of this, Lao Li couldn't breathe, and his eyes flipped and fainted again. At this time, Lei Zhen also pulled out a dagger with a piece of cloth from the flatbed cart.

On this piece of cloth, someone used the blood dipped casually, leaving four big blood words: No chicken or dog left!

Looking at such a piece of cloth that was torn from a certain corpse.

Lei Zhen's brows were beating gently. His steps have really gone through the vast country in China in recent years. He has also had many times dealing with people from the Green Forest in the Jianghu. Lei Zhen clearly knew that such a blood letter was a killing order issued by a bandit led by Zhang Huzi to this small mountain village.

Their purpose is undoubtedly to kill the chicken and scare the monkey, and to set an example with bloody means. To completely dispel the will to resist other mountain villages that are still in their infancy!

"We immediately withdraw from this small mountain village. We still have time to avoid this war!"

"Although these bandits are fierce, they are not fools after all. Seeing a well-equipped private army like us, they always have to think twice before thinking about whether it will be worth the loss!"

"The most important thing is that during the period when we are confronting the bandits, the Japanese intelligence forces will meet with Chen Gongbo's men. Even if we can win these bandits, we will never be able to resist the accumulation of energy. We are stronger than ours!"

...

Lei Zhendi quickly calculated in his heart, but when he turned his head, Lei Zhen was stunned, he was really stunned.

I don’t know when, Luo Sanpao, Zhang Cheng, Gui Cai, Sun Shangxiang, Uncle Jiu, Doctor, Monkey King, Rabbit, Zhao Da Plague God, everyone stood behind Lei Zhen.

Each of them looked at the four bodies that carried, and even more, a flatbed car that was once perfect but now broken, and each of them pursed their mouths.

"Master, you often tell me that those who are great generals must know how to judge the situation and must not be blinded by emotions and make irrational judgments."

The last one spoke was not the Jiangdong Sun Shangxiang who had always been jealous of evil and could not get any sand in his eyes, but the genius. He looked at Lei Zhen and said sincerely: "I have been following Master these days. I have learned a lot of useful things from you. I also know that if I am smarter and more rational at this time, I should recommend you to withdraw from this small mountain village immediately, and even think of a way to attract the fire of bandits and the Japanese intelligence forces chasing us.

But... I can't do it, I really can't do it! I'm still a mortal, I can't become a Buddha and enter the Tao, and I can't clearly know that there are 100 or 200 people in the village, men will be cut open, women, including children without adults, and I can still leave for granted!"

"Master, you often tell me that the reason why we stand up and resist the Japanese invasion is that we know that the enemy's strength is a hundred times stronger than ours, but we still have to fight bloody battles. It is not because I am stupid, but because the Japanese have occupied our homeland, they slaughtered our brothers and ruined our sisters.

You tell me about the Nanjing Massacre.

Let me tell us about the atrocities of the Japanese in Lushun. You tell us that in order to enable every Chinese to stand proudly on the top of the world, and for the civilization and indomitableness of our Chinese nation that has flowed for five thousand years, we must fight to the death! I agree with the knowledge you taught me, and respect your spirit of self-improvement!"

Speaking of this, the genius suddenly felt his knees weak and he knelt heavily in front of Lei Zhen.

He looked up at Lei Zhen, and he pointed to the four corpses placed there, and blood was dripping all the way. In this mountain, a flatbed truck with blood was drawn out, and shouted wildly: "But Master, look at these bandits, all this they have.

What is the difference between them and the Japanese? They want to keep the whole village without leaving any other people. How much better can they be compared to the Japanese Nanjing Massacre? Just as the Grand Master said, how can they wipe out the world without cleaning a house?

If we cover our eyes today and walk away as if we are deaf and dumb, then we are the most shameful deserters! Why do you want me to tell everyone with confidence in the future that I am just to resist foreign humiliation?

Is it just to let more compatriots live a good life and to go to the battlefield?"

"Master, please take the master's wife away. We stay here to help the villagers. In this way, both the Japanese and Chen Gongbo's subordinates will be firmly attracted to us. If you take the master's wife, you can take the opportunity to escape from their pursuit!"

"Bang!"

The genius' head hit the ground so hard under their feet. It was so generous and so generous.

The genius bent his waist deeply and lowered his head to the man standing in front of him. He shouted with all his might: "Master, I want to be an excellent soldier like you. I know that soldiers take obeying orders as their duty, and I know that your decision is right.

I know all the hard work and hope you bet on me! It’s... Please, let me choose the last path myself! Even if I die, I will be grateful to you!"

Lei Zhen looked at Guicai quietly. Although Guicai knelt on the ground and lowered his head, at this time, he could really be called the blue sky above his head and the earth. If it weren't for seeing it with his own eyes or hearing it with his ears, who would have known that behind his always smiling face and cynical cynicism and likes to make fun of others, there is such an upright and brave heart hidden?

Lei Zhen quietly recalled what the ghost had just said, and suddenly a big, proud smile threw it from the corner of his mouth.

As long as it is right and correct, what's the harm even if you know that there is a tiger in the mountain and go to the mountain? Even if you have to fight to the core, you will die if you fight with your back and forth. If you fight for the best, you will die. What's the harm if you fight for the best of your country and the darkness of your country and the brightness of your country?!

Lei Zhen turned his head suddenly, and he looked at the village chief and raised the blood letter in his hand, siring: "You all saw that the way out of the mountain has been blocked by bandits. Maybe it's today or tomorrow, they will visit. At that time, whether you kneel down and beg for mercy, or you serve all your property, including the food for the next day, they will kill all your old and young villages, and there will never be a second possibility.

In other words, you are dead! But even if the dog is anxious, you can still jump over the wall, and if the rabbit is anxious, you dare to eat meat. Do you dare to take you villagers who are not protected by the magic power of the Supreme Laojun to fight with us to fight to the death and survive?!"

Before the village chief answered, Lei Zhen continued: "However, there is no free lunch in this world, and it is even more impossible for me to lead my brothers to work for you in vain.

I must tell you in advance that behind us, there is a powerful and well-armed army, chasing us.

Once we stay in this village to help you resist the bandits, we must work together to face our common enemy!”

The village chief looked bitter. He really didn't want his mountain village and his home to become a battlefield, but does he have any other choice?

Lei Zhen was right. Once Zhang Huzi issued a killing order to them with his body and blood letter, no matter how they beg for mercy, they would never be able to get a life from the bandit's butcher's knife.

It is absolutely impossible to escape! Once they walk out of this small mountain village, the villagers who are honest and seldom who will leave their homes will not be familiar with this endless mountain. The familiarity of the bandits who are born and raised and live in this area for many years may not be greater than that of the bandits who have been born and raised in this area.

And relying solely on their own feet, they have to take care of their families and the elderly and the young. It is even more impossible for them to be able to escape the bandits' horse team.

What's more, just look at the flatbed cart and look at the bloody corpse, and besides the human and ghosts, and only one breath left, everyone felt cold.

Under everyone's gaze, the village chief finally nodded vigorously. The village chief looked at Lei Zhen, and he knew clearly that from this time on, his fate with the entire village had been closely linked to this man.

If they want to survive, the only way is to follow this man and fight him to the death!

...

Under the command of the village chief, a total of 123 young and middle-aged people over 14 years old and under 45 years old in the village gathered together. Nearly half of the women were also included.

These villagers who had never received military training and lacked the awareness of teamwork took five minutes to barely form a loose team, and the weapons they brought were even more diverse.

This place is surrounded by mountains. Wild beasts are everywhere, so many villagers have hunting rifles at home. It may be because of the inevitable loss of military guns to the people after years of war.

Two of the villagers even held a formal rifle in their hands!

Luo Sanpao walked over and carefully checked the guns in the hands of these villagers. Although a considerable number of guns have a considerable history, it is obvious that they have been carefully maintained and can be used at any time.

Seeing this scene, Lei Zhen and the genius couldn't help but frown together. They looked at each other and saw each other's concerns in each other's eyes. These honest villagers could have such weapons in their hands.

Zhang Huzi's group of bandits who specialize in fighting for family robbery should of course be better at controlling ground weapons.

This group of villagers who were holding guns and mastering gun techniques, even a few villagers who were holding bows and arrows, were said to be able to hit a few preys in the mountains by relying on such tricks. They were all assigned to Luo Sanpao's men, and the name sounded good, but the actual effect was.

A fire support team that cannot be determined without actual combat tests.

There is also that local cannon. It is not powerful, but it is too heavy. It cannot be moved randomly in actual combat, and can only be used as a fixed turret.

It can only be used to defend the entrance of the village, and the firing rate is too slow, so it is estimated that the first two or three launches can have a little bit of surprise effect.

But when Lei Zhen saw that the rabbit was instigated by Sun Shangxiang, he tried to stretch out his hands and easily picked up the local cannon. He jumped three feet high on the ground in a big way, which shocked all the villagers, Lei Zhen immediately changed his view just now. With a wave of his hand, he also put the rabbit into Luo Sanpao's fire support team.

More than fifty strong villagers who had no guns and did not know how to shoot were selected by Lei Zhen and handed them over to Zhang Cheng, who trained these villagers with the simplest but practical close-range killing skills.

"The best use of cold weapons is the spear! It is convenient for stabbing, and when facing bandits, it can play a role in resisting rifles.

Moreover, the narrow and long gun body can keep the enemy a few meters away, and can also help those villagers who have never participated in actual combat or killed people to find a sense of security."

Lei Zhen pulled Zhang Cheng to a remote corner and told Zhang Cheng this way: "The time is so short, don't teach them what block, what parry, and what dodge.

As long as they learn how to stab the target with all their might, they can kill the enemy most effectively, and how to prick the enemy when facing the impact of the horse team, it is enough."

Zhang Cheng turned around and looked at the various weapons in the hands of the villagers, and replied in a low voice: "But in such a short time, where did you ask me to find more than fifty spears?"

"I counted it. There were eleven pitchforks among them. This thing itself is an enhanced version of the spear. What's wrong with one more spear head? As for the forty spears that are missing, there are trees and bamboo around them anyway. You can lead them to make it yourself!"

"You choose some wooden sticks that are thick and straight, peel them off the bark and flatten them into a gun bar, and then search from house to house, collect all the scissors for women to do needlework together, take them apart, and tie them to the gun bar, isn't it just a sharp and even iron head that can be pierced by iron?" Facing Zhang Cheng's stunned gaze, Lei Zhen said: "If it really doesn't work, every family has a kitchen knife, right? Remove the handle of the kitchen knife, and then install the knife head on the gun bar.

Let some of them practice spears, and some of them practice big swords!”

Seeing Zhang Cheng walking towards his spear and the sword team with an understanding look on his face, commanding them to set up several straw targets in an open area called the training ground. The genius asked: "Master, half of the members of this melee unit you choose are women.

I think those women may become weak all over once they see blood.

It is not suitable for close combat combat at all. Mixing them in it. Once someone loses control of his emotions on the battlefield, it is likely that the morale of the entire fighting team will plummet, and even trigger an irresistible big escape!"

Listening to the words of the genius, Lei Zhen shook his head gently, and he narrowed his eyes and after a long time, he said, "Genius, have you not noticed? These villagers who were selected into the fighting team by me are all couples. Some people often say that the brothers who beat the tiger.

When the father and son soldier are in battle, I just want to see what the husband and wife soldier will look like. "

What would a husband-and-wife soldier look like when he goes into battle?
