Chapter 42 Reconnaissance Operations
After running for more than 20 meters, Chen Chen suddenly took a big step forward with his left foot and leaned forward at the same time.
While lying down, Chen Chen sent the gun out in the target with his right hand, and held the guardrail with his left hand, quickly lying on the ground and shooting at the gun.
After shooting in a lie-down position, Chen Chen put the gun in his arms, faced the right, placed it in front of his chest, hugged it tightly, and put his ankles tightly together, and rolled in and out to the side with all his body.
Avoiding the observation of the imaginary enemy, after shooting, Chen Chen went from rolling in and shooting in a lie-like position again. Then, he pulled his gun and crawled forward.
First, crawling in a low position, then crawling in a side position, and finally crawling in a high position, moving forward with the strength of legs and elbows; then rolling in, out of the gun, shooting...
Jumping out of the snow, Chen Chen leaned forward, imagining different terrain and hidden objects, he made three shooting actions: squatting, kneeling, and standing posture, and then stood up and closed his gun, waved to the people in the distance, indicating the end.
"Where do it again!" Zhao Tie waved his hand from afar, wanting Chen Chen to demonstrate it when he went back.
Chen Chen rolled his eyes and pretended that he didn't hear it. He beat his clothes and walked back slowly.
Zhao Tie shook his head in anger. When Chen Chen approached, he scolded: "You lazy girl, you have to come over anyway. Are you still tired if you do it again? Don't pretend you didn't hear it, I shouted twice."
Chen Chen curled his lips and said, "If you don't explain why you have to do that, it's useless to do it ten times!"
"Are you Chang Youli'er?" Zhao Tie said: "I see that your movements are good, and I want everyone to see clearly."
"See clearly?" Chen Chen smiled arrogantly, "You can learn it by just watching the movements? It's not that the case at all. If I don't tell many details, everyone can't do it well."
Lao Zhou smiled and patted Zhao Tie, saying, "Don't argue with this girl, we can't argue with her. She wants to talk about it, so let her talk about it."
Zhao Tie looked at Chen Chen, and saw that he looked indifferent and arrogant, sighed helplessly, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, then you can talk first!"
Chen Chen looked at his watch, shook his head vigorously, and said, "It's almost time to eat, I'm hungry. Besides, I'm just teaching shooting, regardless of other training?"
Zhao Tie also looked at his watch and said angrily: "It's more than ten minutes left to end. You can talk for a while and you won't starve to death."
Chen Chen shrugged his shoulders, walked to the team, raised his gun and said, "The movements can be seen, but the position and way you hold the gun are wrong, and the movements you make will be distorted. Besides, just now, I made a quick move, lie down, roll in, crawl, and shoot. There are differences in holding the gun..."
While talking, Chen Chen demonstrated, he went back and forth several times in front of the team, and he got out, climbed, and trotted...
"This girl speaks annoyingly, but she is very serious when doing it." Old Zhou whispered to Zhao Tie while watching seriously.
Well, Zhao Tie smiled bitterly and said, "This girl is more qualified than us as an instructor. Every move can be said. Even we don't understand the subtle differences in holding a gun, but we just can handle it."
Old Zhou nodded and said, "She is just a little lazy. Oh, let's change it slowly!"
Chen Chen was lying on the ground, still talking, "Imagine that the enemy is shooting at you, or to avoid the enemy's observation, roll in and move quickly. When rolling in, be sure to turn the gun on the safety, hold the gun above the watch ruler with the left hand, hold the gun near the neck of the gun with the right hand or hold the guardrail in both hands..."
Roll left, right, from rolling in to lie down, quickly exited the gun, shot in a lie-shaped position... Then, Chen Chen stood up with the gun, looked at his watch, and smiled and said, "It's time to eat."
Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou looked at each other, and they were both amused and crying.
"Get together, run, go." Zhao Tie glared at Chen Chen and led the team back to the village.
Chen Chen didn't care, ran behind the team, waved his hand at Chang Chunling, signaling her to follow.
Chang Chunling used to be skeptical, but seeing Chen Chen's performance, it can be said that she was convinced. The company captain and the team members had to learn from others, and she was simply an instructor.
"Xiaochen, take the time to teach me more, I have to catch up with others!" Chang Chunling asked Chen Chen while running.
Chen Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, follow everyone to practice and learn it soon. In fact, this is just basic, on-site training and practical training, that's important!"
"You know so much." Chang Chunling smiled embarrassedly and said, "I didn't believe it very much before, thinking about how a woman is so powerful..."
Chen Chen exhaled a long breath and said, "It's nothing. It seems like you have made a big mistake. You will spend a long time together in the future, so don't always do this, so that it makes people feel a gap. If I'm not good, you won't be good friends with me?"
Chang Chunling smiled and said, "It's mine, I won't say such dislikes in the future."
While speaking, the team had already entered the village and headed straight to the ancestral hall.
After a brief tidying up, everyone sat down to prepare for dinner. There was a broken table and a brick was used to cushion the legs. Most people made food, found a place to squat, stand or sit, and stuffed it into their mouths in different positions.
Chen Chen and Chang Chunling received preferential treatment, occupying one side of the broken table, and sitting on a long bench. They ate pancakes mixed with sweet potato noodles and cabbage soup.
Chen Chen gradually got used to this kind of food. He ate about the same food at Juzi's house, just occasionally adding boiled eggs to him, and the vegetable soup has more oil stars.
No matter what he eats, Chen Chen ate a lot. Eating full is one aspect, and he can even feel his body growth. Starting from possessing the big plum, he grew almost ten centimeters in just a few months.
As for strength, although it is not as good as a man who can carry it, he feels that it is not inferior to others when running.
However, after eating a pancake and drinking half a bowl of vegetable soup, it was gone.
"You don't let your meal be full?" Chen Chen knew that this was unlikely. No matter what, he wouldn't be inferior to the people, right?
"Originally, the pancakes were not for you." Zhao Tie swallowed the soup and said, "Look at your quick hand, I didn't say anything."
Lao Zhou smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to come here so soon. The food is not enough. I asked the kitchen to make hot noodle soup and poached eggs for you. I'll just welcome you."
"I've said it a long time ago, I've eaten a pancake." Chen Chen pushed the soup bowl and stopped drinking it. He waited to eat hot noodle soup and eggs.
Zhao Tie teased: "Looking at your appearance, how can you look like a daughter?"
Chen Chen curled his lips and said, "Has there been a decision on it? Should I go back to the mining area or continue to stay here?"
Zhao Tie put down his chopsticks and said, "The decision has not been made yet. Lao Zhou and I have discussed it and are planning to send someone to reconnaissance to find out the forces and movements of nearby enemies. In this case, the superiors also have a reference, and maybe they can make a decision soon."
Chen Chen nodded and said, "When will I go to reconnaissance? I want to go."
Lao Zhou pondered for a moment and said, "The plan is to set off in the afternoon. Two groups of reconnaissance personnel will go to Qijia Town and Zuwang respectively."
"What are the characteristics of these two places?" Chen Chen asked.
Lao Zhou put down the pancake and said, "According to the news, except for a few Japanese consultants, the enemies in Qijia Town are all puppet troops; Zuwang is in an important position and is blocking the main traffic road. There are puppet troops and Japanese garrisons. It is still unclear how much they are."
Chen Chen thought about it and felt that the Japanese strongholds generally would not have too many people, at most a small team. The Japanese were much more powerful than the puppet army, so it would be very dangerous if other team members went there.
At this time, a large bowl of hot noodle soup was served, with chopped green onions sprinkled on the poached eggs and sesame oil, which smelled greatly.
Chen Chen picked up the chopsticks and tasted them, nodded and praised, "Well, this hot soup noodles are so fragrant. Here is me, let's go to Zuwang."
Old Zhou was stunned for a moment. The words and sentences were completely unrelated, which made him unable to react for a moment.
Zhao Tie looked up at Chen Chen and reminded: "You can go, but you should focus on reconnaissance and don't be exposed easily."
Chen Chen nodded and said erroneously: "I understand. If the Japanese don't notice it, I won't provoke them."
"After the meal, I will call the team members of that group. You will get familiar with it and set off." Lao Zhou said: "The kitchen has also made dry food. You can bring it with you. Maybe you can come back tomorrow!"
Chang Chunling opened her mouth. She originally wanted to follow Chen Chen, but she was worried that she would cause burden.
Chen Chen turned his head and said to her: "You stay here first and train with the team members! In the evening, you go to Wei Chuner's house to sleep, and I will take you to meet you later."
"It's a good arrangement." Old Zhou smiled and said, "Looking at this broken ancestral hall, we are all crowded, and there is really no place for lesbians to sleep."
Chen Chen ate very quickly, and then he drank a large bowl of hot noodles. He breathed a sigh of satisfaction. He waited for Chang Chunling for a while, and then took her to Wei Chuner's house after she finished eating.
Wei Chun'er's mother's illness was cured. When she saw Chen Chen, the whole family was very enthusiastic and agreed to the temporary residence of Chen Chen and Chang Chunling.
Chen Chen and Chang Chunling didn't stay for a while, then rushed back to the ancestral hall and received their own tasks.
Erhuzi and Yu Baogen, these two team members are Chen Chen's companions. Erhuzi is quite familiar with him, while Yu Baogen just met him.
As a local, Yu Baogen mainly acts as a guide in this group. In fact, he used to be a guerrilla team, and in terms of combat quality, he was stronger than Erhuzi.
Chen Chen wanted to reconnaissance with the team, just like he asked Ju Zi to lead him around to familiarize himself with the terrain. In the future, the battles would mostly be carried out nearby. If he was familiar with the area, he would have more chances of winning.
Because, free hunting in designated areas will be an effective combat mode envisioned by Chen Chen, and sniping hunting of certain key enemies will often receive inexplicable miracle effects.
White clouds float in the sky, forming fluffy and gentle waves like cotton on the distant mountains and forests.
Chen Chen, Erhuzi and Yu Baogen walked eastward for more than ten miles in one go. Most of them chose remote roads to avoid being discovered. It took more than an hour to approach the edge of the forest.
"You can see Chencun after walking seven or eight miles." Yu Baogen pointed to the front and said.
Chen Chen stopped, raised his telescope and looked into the distance. According to Yu Baogen's introduction on the road, after passing Chencun, he walked seven or eight miles to Zuwang, which was the Japanese stronghold stuck on the main road.
After observing for a long time, Chen Chen asked: "Whether you have bypassed the village, we should avoid the crowds, whether it is the Japanese or the ordinary people."
Yu Baogen looked left and said, "There is only a few miles to walk through the snow, then slide down the ridge and walk along the river!"
Chen Chen looked at Erhuzi, but it didn't matter. He stared at Chen Chen with his eyes straight, waiting for Chen Chen to make an idea.
"Then let's go!" Chen Chen put away his telescope and put on his hood.
It is not easy to walk more than two miles in the deep snow. Lin Baogen and Erhuzi took turns to the front, and Chen Chen stepped on their feet, saving a lot of effort.
After almost two hours of tossing, three people walked up to the river.
This is a small river that flows from west to east. There is a countryside dirt road along the river on both sides. After walking for five or six miles, you will see a wooden bridge.
It is said to be a bridge, but in fact, there is only a bridge deck made of wooden boards, which is more than three feet wide and has no bridge railings. It is supported by a few wooden stakes on the right bank of the river. There are more than a dozen graves on the east side of the bridge head.
"We have bypassed Chencun, crossed the bridge, and walked another five or six miles to the Zuwang stronghold." Yu Baogen said and looked back. It should be Chencun there.
Chen Chen looked around, remembered the surrounding terrain in his heart, and prepared to cross the bridge.
At this moment, several gunshots suddenly came from Chencun. Chen Chen immediately stopped and frowned.
Lin Baogen and Erhuzi also became nervous. If there were enemies behind them, their situation would be a bit bad. Although they could hide, the sudden situation still made people feel stressed.
Chen Chen calculated the distance and could hear the gunshots in Chen Village here because they were only two or three miles away; while in Zuwang, the distance between five or six miles was probably not heard.
Assuming that the enemy is in Chencun, if they want to continue reconnaissance, it is best to hide nearby and wait for the enemy to go back before following them. In this way, the retreat will not be blocked.
"Do you want to take a detour?" Yu Baogen looked at Chen Chen and said, "Continue walking along the river, there is still a bridge, just walk seven or eight miles more."
Chen Chen thought about it and quickly made a judgment that the terrain here was not good, and there was a grave and woods opposite, so it was more convenient to hide.
"Let's go over the bridge first." He pointed to the cemetery and the woods opposite, and Chen Chen said, "Hide there and see if you depend on the situation."
Yu Baogen opened his mouth and saw that Erhuzi had already walked towards the bridge, so he had to follow him.
After crossing the bridge, the three of them hid in the cemetery. Chen Chen observed carefully and found a hidden location. The field of view was wide and convenient for concealment.
