Chapter 1773 Shang Zhen Is Here! (Part 3)
The Japanese advancing team at the entrance of the alley saw clearly that a grenade was thrown out of thin air from the wall.
But everything happened so quickly that they had no time to react, so they could only watch the grenade blow up their own people, and they subconsciously lay down.
"..." Who knows what order the Japanese officer gave, the advancing team got up and rushed forward with guns.
But when they ran to the place, they saw that the four people, two Japanese soldiers were all hit in the vital parts by hand-shock fragments, and they were obviously dead, but the two puppet soldiers were only injured by the grenade.
When they got here, the Japanese commander saw that there was actually a small door under the door.
Since they were enemies, they were not afraid of death, and a grenade would not scare the Japanese.
So this time, without waiting for the commander's order, no matter whether they were Japanese or puppet soldiers, as long as they had grenades on them, they would unpin the grenades and throw them into the yard.
In a moment, the explosions in the yard became continuous, and even the fragments produced by the explosions directly penetrated the tin-wrapped gate, flew out of the yard, and hit the opposite wall with a "clang clang" sound!
With the explosion of this grenade, let alone a person, even a chicken in the yard would definitely be killed.
When the explosions stopped, the Japanese and puppet troops pushed and pulled the gate that was riddled with holes and tried to rush into the yard.
But no matter how loud their explosions were, the lock was much smaller.
The fragments of the explosion did not hit the lock, and even if there were fragments that really hit the lock, who knew whether the lock could be broken?
Seeing that this door was blocked, the Japanese and puppet troops used the butts of their rifles to smash the gate, and the clanging momentum was no less than when the grenades were thrown just now.
The gate was finally smashed open, but before the Japanese army rushed in, the sound of box guns suddenly rang behind them again.
At the entrance of the alley where the Japanese and puppet troops had just rushed, Shang Zhen was already squatting there, with a box gun jumping in his hand, and the lead bullets he fired flew through the alley with the posture of killing all living things in seconds!
Ten more Japanese and puppet troops were knocked down in an instant without any preparation.
By the time the remaining Japanese and puppet troops reacted, Shang Zhen had already put away his gun and ran away to another place.
It turned out that Shang Zhen had already found a way out when he planned to ambush the Japanese troops here.
When he entered the yard earlier, he saw a ladder lying on the wall of the house.
So he directly put the ladder on the wall between the two houses.
This house is a high-walled courtyard with a door covered with foreign iron sheets, but the house next door is not bad either. The walls around the courtyard are also the walls of the house. In other words, the house next door is like a courtyard with a patio in the middle!
After throwing the grenade, Shang Zhen climbed the ladder to the wall, that is, the roof of the house next door, and then ran directly to the entrance of the alley under the cover of the roof ridge.
Shang Zhen had no idea of fighting the Japanese army with a house.
It happened that he ambushed the house and no one was in it and it was locked. Otherwise, Shang Zhen really couldn't ambush the Japanese army here. He didn't want to implicate innocent people.
As for the grenades he used, they came from his spoils of war.
After Ma Erhuzi died, a puppet soldier left a satchel on his body. Shang Zhen opened it and found that there was a Kowloon belt and two grenades inside.
Shang Zhen disguised himself as a civilian many times, so he didn't wear the Kowloon belt very often.
But it is undeniable that it is indeed convenient to fight with the Kowloon belt on his body.
No one is a mobile ammunition depot. First of all, it is impossible for a person to carry a lot of ammunition with him. Secondly, if all he carries are shotgun shells, it will definitely be inconvenient, and the tactical movements of jumping high and low will be affected.
The Kowloon belt has achieved a perfect combination of the ammunition carried and the convenience of movement.
After Shang Zhen succeeded in two sneak attacks on the Japanese army, he stopped attacking and climbed onto the roof of a house's outer room and hid on the slope facing the main house of that house.
After throwing a grenade and firing another round at the devils, Shang Zhen's anger subsided and he calmed down.
When he was angry, he thought that he must not let this group of devils run away!
When his anger subsided, he suddenly realized that the devils could not run away!
The devils could not run away, not that he must have the ability to keep them, but that they would not run away, and they did not want to run away at all!
The reason is very simple, he put a battalion outside the town.
He felt that he had something to rely on and did not run away, so how could there be no large group of Japanese troops behind this group of devils? So why would they run away?
When the enemy and I fight, no one can say who is more afraid of death than who, so are the Japanese devils afraid of death? Now look at the puppet troops they brought, they are not afraid of death either.
Since there are reinforcements behind them and they are not afraid of death, why should they run?
If they have to run, it is probably Zhao Mingxuan and his men under Zhao Tieying, and those of the security division, right?
And the development of the battle was really just as Shang Zhen expected. Those Japanese and puppet troops really walked carefully in the streets and alleys of Shuiquan Town, trying to find Shang Zhen's location.
In the entire Shuiquan Town, Chen Laocai's village protection team did not dare to appear.
They have been scared by the Japanese and puppet troops. When have ordinary people ever died in 20 or 30 people at once?
Chen Laocai just hoped that his village protection team could hold on until these Japanese Japs retreated.
Naturally, the people did not dare to go to the streets. They all closed their doors and hid in their homes.
As for the people harvesting grain outside the town, they no longer harvest wheat. They listen to the frequent and scattered gunshots in the town. Even though they feel uneasy, who dares to come back?
But having said that, if you think that the Japanese advancing troops want to run rampant in Shuiquan Town with just a few dozen of their remaining people, that is impossible. At least the dozen or so veterans under the businessman will not be able to pass this level!
Shang Zhen gave orders to the veterans not to let the Japanese and puppet troops leave this area.
Then the veterans guarding the streets and alleys would naturally shoot after discovering and confirming the Japanese troops.
But how nagging are these veterans under Shang Zhen? Every loach is slippery. After a few shots and knocking down one or two of them, they will scratch their sticks and run away. How can they be willing to fight with the Japanese and puppet troops?
But if that's the case, that's it, but there are more than just the Japanese army and Shang Zhen in Shuiquan Town.
Zhao Mingxuan and his men didn't want to have a head-on confrontation with the Japanese army, so they found a place to squint. The reason was not that he was afraid of the Japanese army, but that he felt that if he beat the Japanese army, he would be helping Shang Zhen.
Logically speaking, shouldn't it be their duty to help merchants who are both Chinese soldiers and Northeastern troops to defeat the Japanese?
But Zhao Mingxuan knew that if he helped Shang Zhen fight the Japanese, he would not be happy if he returned to the regiment leader Zhao Tieying.
But when he had the opportunity to take advantage of Shang Zhen before, he didn't do it because only he knew it. He didn't want his men to know that he let Shang Zhen go.
You must know that among his men, there is also leader Zhao Tieying!
In addition to Zhao Mingxuan, the team sent by Zhao Tieying to cause trouble for Shang Zhen, there are also security guards.
The sporadic gunshots ringing out from time to time made the security guards finally understand.
That is, they originally came here for food, but then they got into troubled waters!
It's okay for the security guards to bully the common people, but their blood as soldiers has long been wiped out by this war-torn era.
The company commander who led the team saw that Shuiquan Town was becoming more and more chaotic, and finally decided to withdraw from the fight for food.
But there is a saying that goes, "The more you fear something, the more it will come to you"!
The company commander led his men carefully out of the hiding place and turned into an alley. But when he led his men to the middle of the alley, gunfire suddenly rang out, and it was another battery of box artillery. Shoot!
The bullets traveled through the alley, some hitting them directly, and some hitting the wall, turning into ricochet, and then hurting the people behind.
In an instant, more than a dozen people in the team were knocked down, but then there was a cry: "What should we do? The company commander is killed!"
