Chapter 1266 Forced to Take Action
Shang Zhen stepped on a branch as thick as a bowl, held his left hand against a slightly thinner branch, and held his box cannon in his right hand.
It was really difficult to hold him in this position. He had to work hard to maintain the balance of his body. He didn't dare to let go of his left arm holding the branch. Once he did, the branch would bounce back.
The branch was about to bounce back, and he wouldn't be able to see clearly what was going on below.
And the box cannon in his right hand was already on fire.
After he climbed up the tree, he unloaded the box cannon and the wooden box.
This is a bit troublesome, but I have to say that the wooden box of the box cannon can be used as a gun stock after being connected to the box cannon.
When Shang Zhen was being chased by the Japanese army or fighting, he connected the box cannon to the wooden box, and only turned off the safety of the box cannon.
In this way, if you need to shoot, open the safety and shoot over the shoulder.
Shang Zhen is a master of using box cannons. Of course he knows the advantages and disadvantages of box cannons. It is a powerful weapon in close combat. However, if there is no gun stock, that is, the wooden box cannon shoulder as a support for shooting from a distance, then the marksmanship will be greatly compromised.
The advantage of him doing this is that he can shoot as quickly as possible and ensure a certain accuracy against targets in the distance, such as 200 meters left and center.
When not in use, since the gun is slung across the shoulder, you only need to turn off the safety and throw the gun away without putting it in the box.
But this time he couldn't stay in the tree. The gun would easily hang on the twigs of the tree, which would be very troublesome, so he put the gun in the wooden box.
This time the situation suddenly required him to use a gun, so naturally he needed to take the gun out of the wooden box.
But having the gun in his hand reflects the foresight that he is using a wooden box now.
There are wooden boxes and leather boxes for box cannons. Which one is more beautiful and lighter? Needless to say, which one is better? Of course, the leather box looks taller and lighter.
But the leather box has a disadvantage, that is, although it can be connected with the gun and used as a gun stock, it is a bit light. If you want to pull the box gun out of the leather box, you have to use both hands to hold the leather box with one hand. Draw the gun out with one hand.
Otherwise, what should you say when you draw a gun? It's like a cannon is set up and ready to fire, but the gun coat cannot be removed. So how do you think the cannon should be fired?
Due to the heavy weight of the wooden box, there is no need to press it with another hand when pulling out the gun, so the gun can be pulled out with one hand.
Therefore, even though a small action of drawing a gun does not have any technical content, it is definitely a summary of the combat experience of veterans.
Otherwise, given the situation Shang Zhen is in now, wouldn't it be very fatal if he gets in a hurry because of drawing a gun?
But even though Shang Zhen was a veteran of many battles, he knew he was in big trouble!
All this was just because, when the child below was peeing, he clearly saw a head emerging from the branches and leaves above the root of the tree that the child had touched!
How far is this? He recognized it as a Japanese soldier at a glance.
Although that guy is not dressed like a regular Japanese soldier, the guy's head is wrapped in black cloth and his face is covered with black cloth, which reveals a pair of evil eyes. Then this guy is not a member of the group of Japanese soldiers who behave strangely and reveal their evil nature. ?
It turned out that they really chased me here, and then they even guessed that they might be hiding in this area. Otherwise, how could they hide here?
Fortunately, the tree I climbed was high and dense enough, and I tied myself in the thick leaves. Otherwise, if I were discovered by this group of Japanese soldiers who were behaving weirdly, it would be a big joke.
He climbed a tree and tied himself up. Wouldn't he, an anti-Japanese warrior, become a lamb to be slaughtered in front of the Japanese devils?
It's just that the above are all part of Shang Zhen's own sighs. It was just a passing thought, but it had nothing to do with the current situation of life and death. Then he focused his attention diagonally below.
The little boy had no idea that there was a murderous demon on his head. He shook his head after urinating. At this time, Shang Zhen, as a bystander, felt lucky.
Since this group of Japanese devils wanted to kill or arrest him, they wouldn't attack an innocent child even if their target was exposed, right?
At this time, the child lifted his pants. He didn't know how he did it, but the pants wouldn't fall off anyway. He turned around, picked up the basket on the ground, and ran forward to catch up with his friend.
Shang Zhen saw that the Japanese soldier on the tree did not move, and he felt slightly relieved. He thought that the target of the Japanese army was him, and in order to avoid exposing their concealment, they would not attack a child.
But at this moment, something unexpected happened. Shang Zhen suddenly heard a shout from the Japanese army in the woods.
Naturally, Shang Zhen didn't understand what the Japanese were talking about.
But he could see the actions of the Japanese without understanding Japanese. In the midst of the shouting, he saw the Japanese soldier who was hiding in the tree move and jump out of the tree!
Oops, no good!
Shang Zhen screamed secretly and jumped down from the tree like a reflex!
But his jump was not blind. He climbed up the tree and hid himself in order not to be discovered by people on the ground. He was about ten meters away from the ground.
Even if his physical fitness is very good and the forest glade is very soft, if he jumps from a height of more than ten meters, it cannot be said that he will be killed directly, but he will definitely fall half to death.
So when he jumped down, although a few twigs were broken and leaves fell, but halfway through the jump, his legs had already stepped on another thick branch that he had spotted in advance.
There was a Jin Daxia who wrote a lot of martial arts novels in later generations. In those fairy tales for adults, the martial arts master fell on a soft branch, and his body could dance with the bounce of the branch. That would never fall. Go down.
Unfortunately, Shang Zhen did not have such ability. His more than one hundred kilograms plus the force of his fall hit the branch directly.
Although Shang Zhen felt the rebounding force of the branches in summer, his falling force was not empty.
With a "crack" sound, the branch that was nearly as thick as the mouth of a bowl was cracked close to the root, and Shang Zhen's body pressed against the branch and fell down again.
This time, Shang Zhen fell directly to the ground. Although the branches blocked the downward force, his knees weakened and he stumbled forward.
Now Shang Zhen knew that the lives of those children who had just passed by were in danger, so how could he dare to stabilize his body again?
When he used the force to pounce forward, his right index finger was already on the trigger.
By this time, his elbows had already touched the ground.
Shang Zhenren jumped down from the tree, but his eyes were always focused on the ground.
He had already caught a glimpse of the Japanese soldier's black figure running towards the child in front of him when he emerged from the thick shade of the tree.
At this time, you still care about whether you can hit it accurately? Let's first attract the Japanese army's attention to him. Shang Zhen immediately pulled the trigger!
