Chapter 62: Ambushing the Ghost Patrol Team

  "Alright, we've agreed on that. We'll go back with you to rob the silver dollars, but we must divide this wealth equally!" Han Yingchang said immediately after hearing Chen Shaoqin's words. His purpose was very simple: this wealth was an astronomical figure for them, and he didn't want to swallow it all by himself, but at least he should share it equally with Chen Shaoqin and his men. Since their numbers were more than Chen Shaoqin's, they would naturally do more work, so now he just wanted Chen Shaoqin to share the wealth equally with him, which was already his biggest concession.

  "Alright, I'll do it!" Chen Shaoqin hesitated for a moment before continuing resolutely in front of Han Yingchang, "But during this period, you must ensure that all your brothers follow my arrangements. Otherwise, neither of us will get the silver!"

  Chen Shaoqin pretended to be hesitant in order not to arouse the suspicion of Han Yingchang and others. He was very clear that the whole story about the silver dollar was fabricated by Xue Yumei, and it was a completely made-up thing. However, since these brothers were interested in the silver dollar, he decided to take advantage of the situation and deceive them into following him on the road first.

  "This is naturally, our brothers have no objection!" The battalion commander Han was deeply attracted by the so-called wealth and didn't care about anything else. Therefore, when Chen Shaoqin proposed this requirement, he would not say much, as long as he could let him and his brothers get the silver coins, everything else was meaningless to him.

  "Alright, first put on the little devil's clothes and equipment!" Chen Shaoqin saw that Liu and others had already gathered the devil's weapons, equipment, and clothes, and placed them in an empty space. He then gave his first command to Han Ying and others, telling them to change into the new attire according to his instructions.

  "Platoon leader, these are the devils' clothes, how can we wear them?" One of the squad leaders said with disgust as soon as he saw the clothes brought by Liu and others. They were here to fight against the devils, which was a righteous thing to do. The devils in front of them were not human beings but monsters, and killing them was their duty. But now they were asked to wear such disgusting clothes, he himself couldn't accept it.

  "Listen to him, put it on!" The battalion commander Han was quite cooperative. After seeing his own company commanders protesting, he immediately rushed to the small company commander and said, "We joined the army just for promotion and wealth, didn't we? Now the opportunity is right in front of us. As long as we follow this Officer Chen, we will definitely see that large sum of silver dollars. Think about it, you can't spend it all your life!"

  "But..." The little Lianchang still looked very displeased, although he was as greedy for wealth as Han Yingchang, with an ugly face full of greed. However, the national dignity in his chest made him unable to accept the fact that he was wearing a Japanese uniform, so he looked at Han Yingchang with difficulty, hoping that Han Yingchang could change his mind.

  "You are a soldier, and a soldier's duty is to obey orders!" Captain Han began to bellow, then turned around and shouted at all the brothers behind him, "Everyone, listen to my command, change into combat gear!"

  Under the order of Captain Han, all brothers took off their original clothes and put on those little devils' clothes, even daring not to miss any accessories that needed to be worn on their bodies. This was Captain Han's order, if they didn't listen, it would be disobedience, disobedience would be shot, so from the small company commander down to all soldiers, including those captured militiamen, all changed into devils' clothes.

  "You guys change clothes too!" Chen Shaoqin saw that his brothers had already followed his orders, so he turned around and looked at the brothers beside him, telling them to put on the little devil's outfit as well. In Chen Shaoqin's eyes, this was not just a simple matter of changing clothes; it hid the purpose he wanted to achieve, because it directly affected the success or failure of his plan this time.

  Xue Yumei and Liu they basically did not hesitate, just followed Chen Shaoqin's instructions, although they all did not know what medicine Chen Shaoqin was selling in this gourd, but they were all very clear that Chen Shaoqin had a reason for doing so. Since none of them could guess Chen Shaoqin's true purpose, they would follow Chen Shaoqin's orders and execute them. They believed that there would be time to figure out what this thing meant.

  Liu Huan changed into a new outfit and brought a set of clothes to Chen Shaoqin: "You should change too! Otherwise, you're too conspicuous among us, the brothers won't be able to accept it!"

  "Whose clothes are these?" Chen Shaoqin carefully examined the clothes, then his eyes fixed on the bloodstain, which immediately made him feel a wave of nausea and almost vomit.

  "Yamada's, this kid was blown up by our mortar during the charge, fortunately his command knife and clothes are still relatively intact!" Lao Liu introduced the origin of the clothes and handed them to Chen Shaoqin again, gesturing for him to put them on.

  "This little devil deserves it, who let him leave the comfortable life in Japan and come to China to be a bandit!" Chen Shaoqin suppressed his disgust, put on his clothes, and brought all of Yamada's equipment. From the front, if you didn't know better, you would think that another little devil had appeared here.

  "Alright, let's move out!" Chen Shaoqin saw that everyone had finished changing and immediately ordered them to follow him back along the same route they came from. They didn't rush, but instead maintained a steady pace in formation, looking just like regular troops on the march.

  They walked over the small hill, walked through the trenches blown out by hand grenades, and walked along the small road in the big mountain, all the way towards Xuzhou. When they were about to leave the forest and enter the Xuzhou blocking battle position, they saw a group of devils' patrol soldiers walking from their front, with a little devil carrying a flag at the forefront, followed by twenty or thirty little devils behind, without heavy weapons, all with Type 38 rifles.

  The brothers all gripped their guns tightly, and with an unconscious movement of the right hand, they loaded the bullets into the chamber, ready to fire.

  "Don't be nervous, everyone. We're currently wearing Little Devil uniforms, so they definitely won't know our identities. When they approach us, they'll definitely ask for our unit numbers to confirm our identities. None of us understand Japanese, so at this time, brothers will split into two groups and hide in place. Take advantage of the time when I'm facing off against the Little Devils, one-on-one quickly lock onto your targets, and use bayonets to take them out as fast as possible. Don't fire the guns in your hands, not even if they misfire. Got it?" Chen Shaoqin immediately said to the brothers behind him.
