Episode 9 Missing, Sniper
The guardhouse is not an insurmountable obstacle for Chen Chen; there are other difficult paths or ways to sneak through the mountains.
After his attack a few days ago, at night, most of the puppet troops did not leave, or just wandered around the guardhouse in the dark, and the space became even bigger.
After walking for a while, Chen Chen hid between the dead grass and the trees. Not far ahead was the guardhouse of the Forbidden Mountain. He had to rest and wait for the night to come.
Leaning against the trunk of a tree, he seemed to relax, but whenever there was a storm, he would listen with his ears. When there was no abnormal noise, he would involuntarily think.
The environment is harsh, but should I be casual and perfunctory?
Chen Chen didn't think this should be done. He felt that only by sticking to the requirements of life and facing everything happening calmly can he find a new turning point in a strange and bad environment.
Without the confusion and helplessness he had just reborn, although his body had changed, Chen Chen's psychological adaptation time had been greatly shortened, and he could soon embark on a path that was not very certain that he was sure of.
Twilight came from the distant mountains and the sky quickly darkened. The forests and fields were shrouded in quietness and darkness, only the sky with the setting sun shone with a little afterglow from the distance.
A figure slowly stood up, walked into the darkness, into the deep forest, and towards the unknown future.
…………………
The night was dark and the moon was in the sky, but I didn't know where I was hiding, as if it had completely disappeared.
There was no oil lamp in the room, only the fire flashed out, reflecting the bright light of Sun Hongshan and his wife's faces.
On the kang, the children fell asleep. The little flower still smiled vaguely in her dream, probably thinking about the joy of eating big cakes.
"Catch three more doses of medicine, buy some food for the rest, and I go out to beg for food and pick charcoal for the second day. This winter is almost over." The little flower girl secretly glanced at her husband's face and said tentatively.
Sun Hongshan didn't say anything, just stroked the crutch in his hand, and after a while, he sighed, "Boy Damei - I'm worried that she will go wrong."
The little flower girl was silent for a moment and said, "No, Damei is not a bad boy. You haven't listened to the second Dan's theory. Damei's dress is like not going on the right path? She has gray and combed her hair, so she is afraid she doesn't want to cause trouble. When your illness is cured, let's go and look for her. Do you think it's good?"
Sun Hongshan blinked his eyes, and after a while, he nodded helplessly, and did not want to speak. He leaned his crutch against the edge of the kang and slowly lay down.
As soon as Damei left, in order to save firewood, the small house did not burn fire, and Erdan also slept on the kang with his uncle and his family.
He heard what his uncle and aunt said, and he seemed to be becoming more and more unfamiliar with this sister.
Although my sister bought him hotpot and tofu soup and gave him money to take care of the family, her eyes were not as warm and kind as before, and there was something indescribable inside.
She was wearing old clothes and had a gray face, but my sister was really rich, but that was more than twenty yuan! In addition to buying medicine, she could also eat.
And the fire burning, it smells so good, it tastes so delicious... Erdan's thoughts turned to his belly and fell asleep in a daze.
…………
In the same village, it was still the dilapidated house, and Lao Zhou and others were having a secret meeting.
"The copper moraine we transported out last time, the arsenal used it to build many landmines, which killed many Japanese and traitors." Lao Zhou's face seemed very excited under the covered light, and his words aroused the low praise and laughter of the people next to him.
Lao Zhou's face became serious, he made a gesture of silence, and said in a deep voice: "Now the mountains are short of coking coal, we need to continue working. Look, what should we do?"
After thinking for a while, someone said, "It's possible to steal coal, but where can you hide it? How can you transport it out?"
"Yes!" Another echoed: "Now Shilangyu and Dufeng are both blocked very tightly, and it is troublesome to sneak in and out by a single person, let alone transport coal."
"Stolen coal and transport coal can be done separately, first doing the easy ones, and finally solving the difficult ones." Lao Zhou said, "There is a secluded place behind Hongshigang, where the stolen coal can be stored; the Japanese are focusing on the mountains and forests in the Shilangyu area, and the surveillance of mines has been relaxed. Stealing coal is a good time."
"I think it's OK." The old man tickled his cigarette holder, and the cigarette pot was shining brightly. "Snap the time, you can carry forty or fifty pockets in one night, and do it in two or three nights."
"It's still like when I was stealing copper moraine?" Someone asked a question.
"I have thought of a better way to deal with the power grid." Lao Zhou's eyes flashed, and his voice slightly increased. "It's just that I need the help of a child and a half. It's not easy to drill for adults."
After a while of silence, the old man slowly said, "I'll find this. It's a settlement in two or three days. You can prepare something else."
…………………
The dark forest casts huge shadows, the howling mountain wind, and the anger of unknown birds and the howling of wild beasts, breaking the brief serene and silence.
The smell of alcohol had faded in the cave. Shen Chen, who had sneaked back to the forest, was sleeping soundly.
The quilt was lifted up half of the corner, and the shirt was unbuttoned several buttons, revealing the white part of the neck and chest. The tall chest trembled slightly as he breathed.
Some of the faces that have developed towards duck eggs, with white and rosy skin, a tall and straight nose bridge, a faint dimples appearing on her cheeks...
"Get out of your mother!" The swearing mouth that was so shameless came from the pursed mouth.
Shen Chen turned over gently, stretched his thighs out of the quilt, and continued to sleep halfway down, but the sleeping position with his butt sticking out was really bold and - very attractive.
What did he dream of? Was he returned to the familiar environment in his previous life and met his relatives who had been away for a long time? Or was he traveling and fighting?
No matter what it is, in this heavy night, some are tossing and turning, some are thinking hard, some are conspiring to discuss, and some are sleeping soundly.
It is also these different people, different thoughts and behaviors that constitute life and the most real history.
…………
The sun is hanging in the sky at noon, and it is almost early winter. It seems that it has lost most of its temperature, but it also gives people a rare warmth.
It's almost time to start dinner? The two puppet soldiers guarding the roadblock outside the guardhouse were wandering more and more listlessly. They looked at the guardhouse from time to time, hoping to hear the greeting for dinner.
The muzzle slowly stretched out, and some weeds were wrapped around the gun. It was a distance of hundreds of meters. Not to mention the naked eye, even with a telescope, it was probably extremely difficult to detect.
"Bang!" A crisp gunshot sounded, and a puppet army raised its head, as if it was punched, and fell down with splashing blood.
The other puppet army was stunned for a moment. No one expected that the cold gun attack would happen during the day, otherwise he would not dare to sway like this. When he woke up, he screamed in horror and wanted to hide.
It took only two or three seconds, and another gunshot, the puppet army's scream stopped abruptly, and its body trembled and fell to the ground depressedly.
The gunshots and shouts in the guardhouse were chaotic, and bullets flew into the woods and grasses, knocking down many dead branches and leaves.
What is elusive and devilish is that it makes people unable to touch the rules; what is unexpected is that it makes you feel that you have found the rules, but you find that it is simply wrong.
Of course, Chen Chen had his own ideas at first and his own prudent approach. Without enough strength and adapting to his current body, he would be more confident and safer to attack in the dark night.
Now, he felt that he had almost recovered and adapted, so he naturally dared to act during the day, making the enemy unable to defend himself.
He took back the gun and hid well. Chen Chen believed that the enemy had not seen him, but he did not show his head, so he hid in a hidden position and listened to the sound outside.
The gunshots became sparse and the voices were getting smaller. The sun shone in the sky, the road, the roadblocks, and the two bodies lying on the ground.
The puppet troops in the guardhouse did not dare to show up, and no one knew whether the gunmen outside were leaving. The chaotic shooting just now, and they didn't even see a figure. Can they beat a ghost?
Time passed by minute by minute, and silence was restored to the surroundings. Even the cries of unknown birds and the brushing of wind blowing branches could be heard clearly.
"Mom, what a slap, what is it like to shoot a black gun? If you are a hero, come out clearly!" Suddenly, curses came from the guardhouse.
Crazy! Chen Chen was slowly crawling backwards. He heard the scolding and paused for a moment, smiled coldly, and continued to retreat.
He really wanted to waste time with the puppet army, so that they could not leave the guardhouse, and they didn't even dare to come out even if they shit and pee.
But this is not just this group of enemies around here. They have attacked several times. Maybe the enemy will make some arrangements, such as surrounding them from both sides when they hear gunshots, searching in the forest, etc.
Be careful to sail for ten thousand years, treat the enemy as a fool, and only suffer the loss. Chen Chen does not want to make such a mistake, because the price of some mistakes is death and there is no chance of correction.
It was not until the trees completely covered the guardhouse that Chen Chen stood up and hugged his waist to speed up.
He was not going back immediately, even if he went back, he would not take a straight route, but would turn around and circle, so that the enemy could not easily determine the true direction he was going if he wanted to track it.
If you want to live a long life, you must be careful and cautious; you must also be elusive so that the enemy cannot touch the mind and find the rules.
Chen Chen took a strange route this time. He took advantage of the fact that the puppet troops in the guardhouse did not dare to patrol for the time being. There were blind spots of observation, so he crossed the avenue not too far away, circled around, and detoured to the other side of the guardhouse.
That's right, the puppet troops in the guardhouse are now on close guard, and the mountains and forests are on the side of the guard. Who would have thought that the attackers would be behind them?
Naturally, this seems more adventurous and may be attacked or surrounded by guardhouses and the strongholds behind them.
But the enemy did not expect it, but instead improved safety. In line with that, the most dangerous place is often the safest place.
Apart from the sound of birds coming from time to time, the surroundings were very quiet. Chen Chen closed his eyes slightly, lay in the dead grass, listening and resting. Suddenly, his ears moved, he turned over and got up, and slowly stretched out his muzzle.
The motor sounds from far to near, from small to large, and two tricycles slowly appeared in Shen Chen's vision.
The sniper position he chose is very good, and it is at the turn of the main road. The sniper position can cover all the targets in the shooting field of vision.
There were small plaster flags on the sideboard motorcycle and machine guns, which totaled three Japanese.
The car didn't drive very quickly. It was driven from the guardhouse, but it was the Japanese stationed in the stronghold behind. Obviously, they heard gunshots and drove a motorcycle to patrol or reinforcements.
There must be no gains and I returned in a bad mood.
Chen Chen's muzzle was motionless and he aimed at a small tree on the side of the road. It was the reference he had chosen. As long as he estimated the speed of the motorcycle and mastered the advance measurement, the Japanese would hit the bullets flying by themselves.
"Bang hook!" The gunshot suddenly rang out, and the bullets shot out of the chamber with the energy and hatred they had accumulated for a long time, and penetrated into the body of the Japanese driver.
The Japanese man's body seemed to be punched, and his body shook violently. The motorcycle lost control and rushed towards the side of the road, turning over and overturning into the snow-covered ditch.
It crunched, and the motorcycle behind it braked suddenly, making a harsh sound.
Chen Chen quickly pulled the bolt, pushed the bullet into the load, moved the muzzle, and aimed calmly again. After training, his breath had become much longer, and he could shoot three times in a row by holding his breath.
"Bang hook!" The bullet shot out again. The Japanese machine gunner on the motorcycle who stopped urgently had just jumped out of the car. It was obvious that he was about to carry the machine gun, and the bullet had hit his chest.
The other two Japanese were much more rapid, rolling and crawling behind the car, using motorcycles as cover, shouting, looking for the attacker.
"Bang!" The gunshot sounded again and the target changed again.
Next to the first overturned motorcycle, a Japanese man was struggling to pull out his pressing leg. A condescending bullet penetrated his chest obliquely, and his strength quickly passed with the blood flowing out.
He barely looked up and saw that the sun was shooting down. The Japanese felt dazzling, and then there was endless darkness.
The bullets that fought back came very quickly. Although they were not sure about the specific location of the attacker, the Japanese still determined the approximate direction and area.
After all, there are not many places that can provide good shooting and concealment. After three shots, the Japanese can also make some basis for judgment.
Chen Chen slowly shrank back and turned over gently, and had already hidden behind the earthblock. He first made a small step, then ran away, and began to accelerate the evacuation.
If he changes the sniper position and continues to spend time with the Japanese, he will be sure to kill the remaining three Japanese.
But time and place were not good for him. This was during the day, in the enemy-occupied area, and there were enemies everywhere. He did not want to be surrounded and intercepted by the enemy who came to hear the news, and fled like a rabbit.
What's more, this place is not a forest, so the space for dodging, hiding, and running away is too small, so the Japanese's combat power cannot be underestimated.
If you fight and run away, and the Japanese can't even see the shadows, that's what you want! Only by using your own strengths and the enemy's weaknesses can you be invincible.
