Chapter 58: Fierce Battle at the City Gate

  Remember in one second

  "Old Li, quickly, get the grenade launcher up," "Squad leader, I don't know how to use it." "Little Zhao, you've had contact with a grenade launcher before, go teach them. And Little Song, what are you shooting at with that machine gun, mice?"

  Look at the city gate, what a mess! The new recruits brought by Zhang Piao are not familiar with their own weapons, and the old soldiers are no exception. They have had too few opportunities to come into contact with such weapons. Machine guns and grenade launchers were brought in large quantities, but only a few people can use them skillfully. Now, more than 200 meters away from the city gate, both sides opened fire.

  At first, those fake soldiers were shocked. When did the Eighth Route Army have such strong military power? As a result, they took a look and found it was simply unspeakable. Unless you really had bad luck, you would not encounter the muzzle of a gun, let alone the muzzle of a rifle. Machine guns, that kind of weapon is not familiar to ordinary people, so just listen to it like firecrackers. Grenade launchers are even more unknown where the shells were fired, anyway, none of them fell on the fake soldiers' position.

  At this time, Li Lu's scout shot and killed the devil responsible for the searchlight. The searchlight happened to be shining on the main road outside the city gate. Looking at Zhang's team, whether they were old or new soldiers, they all had night blindness, so none of them dared to sneak up from the shadows on both sides. Moreover, they were also afraid of being mistakenly injured. Zhang's team had a lot of ammunition, and Liu He and his men handed over most of the devils' weapons and ammunition they captured to them.

  。

  Especially the ammunition of the grenade launcher and the machine gun, not a single round was left behind, all were given to Zhang's squad leaders. And another thing is that Li Luhui reported that there is a fairly large arsenal in the city, naturally they thought that as long as they could take down the county seat, they would be able to replenish their supplies in large quantities, so they opened fire freely.

  Zhang Paichang also had an idea, just to take advantage of this exercise, after that, there would be no such opportunity, and he estimated that after this time, the soldiers under his command would be able to skillfully use these weapons.

  As for the puppet army, looking at their performance, they really are just going through the motions with the devils. They're hiding in a corner, not putting in any effort, and only occasionally firing a few shots. Some of them are even holding machine guns and shooting randomly, but they don't dare to aim at the enemy's body. Although they have surrendered to the devils, it can be said that their hearts are still with Han. If they were to kill someone on the opposing side now, then they would truly be finished.

  You can surrender now, they don't dare to, and they still don't know what happened to the devils. Maybe the devils are watching the excitement on the side. What they didn't know was that the devils in the city had already seen their Heavenly Aunt, and also, the devils at this city gate were all dead. When the captain heard the gunshots, he looked far away at the devil's military camp and found no devils coming out, so he knew these devils hadn't escaped, they were really annihilated. He naturally hid far away, would he dare to come out? Indeed, this was a mistake of Li Lu and others, not having investigated the situation about this annihilated captain. But fortunately, mistakes have their advantages, if they had investigated the situation about this annihilated captain, maybe now they would still be searching for this captain throughout the city.

  It's worth noting that Liu He would worry about his secretly shooting, not to mention letting him kill someone, even if he just injured a team member, Liu He would be very heartbroken.

  "Go take a look, what's going on at the city gate that's causing such a commotion. And also, get Captain Li Lu over here for me." "Yes, I'll go call him right away."

  Everyone here knows at a glance that Liu He is ordering someone, and it must be the reconnaissance team members.

  "Captain, you called me," Li Lu panted and ran over, "What's going on at the city gate? Didn't you guys kill those devils at the city gate?" Liu He asked with an unhappy frown.

  "They're all dead, the devils are all dead." "They're all dead, then what's with the gunfire?" "That's just Zhang Squad Leader fighting the puppet soldiers, it's quite lively, both sides are wildly exchanging blows. Don't be fooled by the intense gunfire, in fact, no one has been injured."

  "Hurry up, you don't know to warn those fake soldiers, let them either surrender or die. You're not unaware that Zhang Paichang and those people are all night-blind, go quickly"

  。”

  Liu He knew that Li Lu had the idea of watching the excitement, but Liu He also knew what kind of people Zhang Pai Chang and his gang were. Although he didn't want to join them, he couldn't afford to offend them either.

  "Everyone gather." Li Lu went to the city gate, naturally Liu He wouldn't be idle either. The dry rations they had on them were running low and needed replenishment. This place happened to be a warehouse for the Japanese devils, located within the county town. They could take grain and some silver coins from the warehouse to buy meat, salt, and other necessities from the county town after dawn. If there wasn't suitable dry rations, they could make their own on the spot, which would be slightly troublesome but manageable as long as it could be done with money.

  At this time, the gunfire at the city gate had stopped. In fact, it was just a matter of Li Lu's shout: "Listen up, pseudo-military brothers! Your ghostly masters have already been killed by us, so you'd better surrender!"

  To know that this shout was made by Li Lu standing behind the searchlight on the city wall, and Li Lu was also hiding behind a bunker to shout, he was afraid of being hit by stray bullets.

  "What, the devils are all dead, this Eighth Route Army is too powerful, with such strong firepower in front and wiping out the devils in the back. Brothers, let's surrender," "Surrender, how can we say that, look at the guns in front still firing so fiercely."

  "This, I have a way, we just need to raise a white flag and it's done. Who has a white cloth? How come you don't even have a white shirt?" "Squad leader, I, I have a pair of white underpants, will they do?" "Underpants, that'll work too, hurry up and take them off."

  In this way, the platoon leader of this fake army used his bayonet to pick up a white underpants, symbolizing surrender. "Comrades from the Eighth Route Army on the other side, we have surrendered, please stop firing."

  Naturally, the other side couldn't hear this loud voice, but wasn't this under the spotlight? "Loudly, look, they've raised something over there."

  "Alright, let me take a look. This is not clear, who among you has good eyesight? Take a look for me. What is that thing?" "Reporting to the squad leader, it seems like a white cloth." "Could they be surrendering with a white flag? Alright then, stop the guns and get someone with a loud voice to ask them what's going on."

  This night blindness is really troublesome, if it were daytime there wouldn't be such a thing.
