The fourth set: Disassemble the car and leave a flying knife with a message.
He continued proudly: "That day, I don't know where the courage came from, but under the bayonets of the devils around me, I wasn't afraid at all. Maybe it was because I had become an old eight."
Secretary Jiao applauded and praised: "This should be a miracle, directly observing the opponent who is about to go into battle, finding out the weaknesses of the bean war chariot, and coming up with so many ways to deal with it... Old heroes, you are truly worthy of the title of hero."
"Especially the flying knife transmission book on the second morning, it's simply an anti-war legend!"
Nie Pai Chang spoke after observing for a while. He was injured in the leg by an explosion in the mountain valley that day. At that time, he also executed Shang Ban Zhang, who was on the verge of death from madness. After leading the wounded out of the mountain valley and walking for more than half a day, they finally found a field hospital in the county town, where more than 20 of the 77 wounded had died. After simple treatment, more than 10 people followed the team, and the remaining 30 or so wounded who were unable to walk were arranged to be taken care of by villagers near the county town. Gao Lian Chang gave each peasant household that took in wounded soldiers 5 taels of silver, and left 10 taels of silver for each wounded soldier.
Nie Pai's injury was not light, and it took more than half a year to walk on the ground again, leaving him with a lame leg. Originally, he wanted to return to his unit, but later he fell in love with the daughter of the family where he was recovering, and since his own legs were no longer suitable for military service, he decided to stay behind as a live-in son-in-law. However, the Japanese devils did not let him off, capturing him to repair the artillery tower, saying that even though his leg was lame, he could still do sedentary work, and ordering him to quarry stones.
Nie Rongzhen couldn't hide his surprise after listening to Zhang Biao's report: "Recently, the common people have been saying that there is a national army anti-Japanese guerrilla squad that is very powerful, specializing in using machine guns to fight against the devils. I had suspected it was you."
Zhan Biao shook his head and continued to ask Nie Pailang: "What happened to Gao Lianzhang later?" Nie Pailang said: "Gao Lianzhang still insisted on leading the troops away. His arm was operated on at that time, and I don't know what the effect is like. We wounded soldiers are very grateful to him."
Zhan Biao said, "I'll take you to our place and we can fight the devils together." Nie Pailong shook his head, patted his own leg and said, "Look at me now, what else can I do? If I go out, I'll only be a burden to everyone. It's better for me to stay home and take care of my son. After the war is over, I'll take my wife and son back to our hometown, and that's it for this life. Forget about everything else." As he spoke, hot tears welled up in his eyes. San De said softly, "Nie Pailong, what a pity about your marksmanship."
Zhan Biao lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then turned to Nie Pai Zhang and said: "Pai Zhang, tell me the location of your home, we need to protect your whole family. By the way, do you have contact with those 30 or so wounded soldiers?" Nie Pai Zhang shook his head and replied: "I looked for them a few months ago, seven or eight had died, more than ten were injured and then left after recovering, others haven't been found yet because I didn't have time to look. Now only about ten people still keep in touch with me, all of whom are disabled and struggling to make ends meet."
Just as he was saying this, the sound of engines came from the village and two bean carts drove out. Zhang Biao said to everyone: "Let's move forward a bit, pay attention to the toads." Then he hastily added: "I figured out a few moves yesterday, namely pinching the neck, hitting the buttocks, poking the waist, taking off shoes, and stripping clothes - five moves..." The fellow disciples lowered their heads and stifled their laughter.
As they spoke, the tank approached, but the road was blocked by large and small stones scattered on the ground. The tank stopped, and the hatch of a tank in front opened, and a Japanese soldier shouted to hurry up and move them away.
The tank is facing the enemy, which means it's facing its own prey. Continue to whisper to everyone: "Everyone pay attention, pinch the neck and hit the gap between the turret and the body! Hit the butt and concentrate on hitting the middle right position of the rear of the car, where there is a fuel tank and engine! Stab in the waist and hit the 8mm thin side armor, aim at the sun flag! Take off shoes and hit the front wheel of the track, which is the main drive wheel. If the track is damaged, it will scatter! Peeling clothes is the most difficult, which means hitting the corner of the car's surface and flipping up the entire steel plate. Remember, no matter where we hit, we are all concentrated on one point with all heavy machine guns!"
Everyone listened intently to Zhang Biao's explanation, staring at the nearby tank. Xiao Feng also whispered: "Take note, everyone should remember these key points." Nie Pai Chang reminded them on the side: "The forward-mounted machine gun can only fire straight ahead, just look at the direction of the vehicle. We must be careful of the cannon on the turret, fortunately it will remind us when it moves. Also, during the battle, we need to assign someone to use binoculars to check and direct the firing point."
Zhan Biao didn't expect that after repairing the cannon tower for a day, he would end up summoning everyone to the scene to directly strike the target. It was an unexpected gain, otherwise, even if he explained it clearly when he got back, he couldn't avoid blind shooting. Moreover, what made him even more delighted was that he officially acknowledged a junior brother in front of the formation.
Under the urging of the Japanese soldiers, Zhan Biao and others also went to move away the stones on the road surface. He looked at the caterpillar tracks of the tank, then looked at the scattered stones, and suddenly a thought flashed in his mind: this tank has good off-road performance, it's not afraid of ditches, slopes, and trenches, and can even climb walls, but will these large stones all over the ground cause the tracks to fall off?
It seemed to be verified for him, and the tank behind couldn't wait any longer, and opened up on a path with fewer stones. The tracks were pressed down effortlessly on the first few stones, but further ahead, they kept getting stuck on the stones and bouncing up and down as they moved forward. Finally, it stopped on a hard stone slab, and the track slipped out of position. The soldier in the front car scolded the soldier in the back car loudly, and the laborers were chased back to the construction site.
This time, Zhan Biao felt more at ease. He supported Nie Pailong and said: "I will often go to see the old squad leader, you take care of yourself." Nie Pailong took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Zhan Biao: "I saw the blueprint of the artillery tower, this is the rough sketch I drew according to my memory, maybe it can be used in the future. Alas, the occupational disease of being a soldier, people may be disabled but their minds will not."
Zhan Biao looked at Lao Pailang with emotion, then glanced at the 150 or 160 people on site. He had another idea and let Xiao Feng gather the brothers together again. Zhan Biao ordered everyone: "We will now go separately to work on these young men here. When we retreat tonight, bring them along. Those who are willing to take up guns to fight against the devils can follow us. I lost 7 people for Tan Yingchang, and I want to return 70 people to him!"
At midnight, Da Yu pulled out two pistols and two daggers from under the cow cart. San De's flying claws opened the way, and Zhan Biao and his eight brothers took down the eight Japanese guards and the two sentries at the village entrance in less than a quarter of an hour. Nie Pai Zhang and the civilian workers who didn't want to join the army immediately dispersed. More than 100 civilian workers who wanted to join the army each carried an iron shovel or pickaxe, quietly leaving the village on over a dozen horse carts. As they departed, Zhan Biao had five or six blocks of stone, each about one foot square, loaded onto each cart.
Hou, outside the village, hugged 12 light machine guns, Peng Xuefei's team was overjoyed. Without firing a single shot or bullet, they rescued Biao and brought out so many anti-Japanese youths. The two teams quickly disappeared into the night.
Matsuyama rushed to the construction site of the artillery tower after receiving the report in the early morning, surveying the scene where only one old ox cart was left and 10 Imperial Army corpses. At this time, he was still calm and analyzing the situation. Suddenly, he looked up at a large tree next to the artillery tower with a good foundation, shining with cold light. Upon closer inspection, it was a military dagger of his special forces unit stuck in the trunk with a piece of paper attached.
Matsumura pointed to the tree and ordered Captain Fujita, who in turn commanded a special soldier to quickly climb the tree and pull out the dagger. Unfolding the paper, Matsumura's face suddenly changed as he drew his command sword and pointed towards the village, shouting: "All units, move out! Pursue and kill Kanbei!"
It turned out that what was written on that piece of paper was ——
Songshan old ghost, Zhan Biao has arrived.
Do not build a watchtower; if you have built one, dismantle it.
Get back to the island, or you'll lose your life!
Hurry cattle people anti-Japanese guerrilla squad leader Zhan Biao's handwriting
