Chapter 70: Enemies on the back!,
Just now, before Lu Shan got down, he had already chosen a better observation point, which was a dense tree three hundred meters ahead, facing the road at the foot of the mountain, and there were no obstacles in front of him that blocked his sight.
In the telescope, two trucks slowly drove past the foot of the mountain and came towards this side. Although they could not see the people on the car, the "plaster flag" applied to the body clearly showed that this was the Japanese military vehicle, and there was a layer of oil cloth on the carriage[]
Could it be that the Japanese military vehicles are transporting something?
"No, there is someone behind!"
Two trucks turned around and two teams of black heads emerged from behind, both carrying guns and heavy machine guns.
What's going on? The Japanese truck was not the Japanese. Judging from the dress of these people, the guide was a group of bandits?
How did the bandits get in with the Japanese? Could it be that the Japanese who recruited this group of bandits? In the decades when Japan invaded China, recruiting local gangsters and bullies to serve themselves was a common method used by the Japanese.
This is not uncommon!
For a moment, many questions were circling in Lu Shan's mind, but he couldn't figure out the key!
"Brother Shan, look, it's a Japanese devil!" Lei Dong also came to Lu Shan and whispered in his ear.
"Did you see clearly?" Lu Shan asked slightly shocked.
"I saw it. On the right side of the carriage behind, it seemed like an army colonel!" Lei Dong moved his eyes a little and said to Lu Shan.
"Let me see!" Lu Shan only paid attention to the entire team and did not pay much attention to the people in the truck. Lei Dong's reminder made him watch carefully, and the truck was getting closer and closer to their position, making it easier to observe.
Although the light was dim at night, God seemed to be helping. The clouds in the sky only covered half of the bright moon, revealing half of the happy face.
This is really God helping me!
Inside the telescope, a Japanese colonel held a commanding knife in both hands, and his head drooped slightly. Because of the brim of the hat, Lu Shan couldn't see the person's appearance clearly.
How could there be a colonel from the Japanese? Is the people in the car equipped with people or goods? Not only did the Japanese escort them personally, but they also followed a group of mob puppet troops who were incorporated?
"Brother Shan, it's 450 meters away. Why don't we hit him? " Lei Dong gently pulled the trigger with his fingers excitedly. At this time, all the sleepiness was thrown to Java.
"Dongzi, don't be alert to the enemy!" Lu Shan hurriedly stopped Lei Dong's actions. He could fight, and after the fight, they didn't have to worry about getting out. However, they knew nothing about the trip of the Japanese puppet troops at night.
Maybe it is not impossible for you to be at yourself and Yanlong Mountain.
"Brother Shan, why don't you fight with such a good opportunity?" Lei Dong muttered incomprehension.
"The Japanese don't know what the hell is doing, let's figure it out first!" Lu Shan explained in a low voice.
"Yeah!" Lei Dong thought for a moment, felt it made sense, and nodded.
"Let's get closer!" Lu Shan pulled Lei Dong down the big tree, and quietly moved in the forest, trying not to make any sound.
After moving about two hundred meters down the mountain, we were getting closer and closer to the Japanese car. The mountain roads here are uneven. The Japanese car is not as good as a pair of soles. It walks very slowly, giving them plenty of time and opportunities.
Moreover, the sound of mountain wind and car motors also obscured the sound of them walking.
"Brother Shan, look, the car is full of Japanese devils!" Lei Dong saw the Japanese devils sleeping in a gap through a gap, and whispered in surprise.
"See, you're a little quieter, want to lure the Japanese here?"
"So many Japanese, there must be fifty or sixty people!"
"Well, it should be a small team of Japanese soldiers." Lu Shan nodded. He planned. The two trucks, plus the vanguards in the cab, were only fifty or sixty at most.
According to the current organization of the Kwantung Army, most of the troops are not fully equipped, and there are still left-behind people in the country. Such a small team should have about fifty people.
A small team of Japanese soldiers plus more than 200 bandits and puppet troops. At night, where are you going?
Did you really come for yourself?
"Dongzi, map!" Lu Shan shouted lightly.
"Give it!" Lei Dong took the map to Lu Shan.
Lying on the tree branch and taking advantage of the moonlight, Lu Shan carefully looked at the map.
A clear route extends at his fingertips, all the way to Yanlong Mountain!
"No, the treacherous Japanese devils, while sending messages to continue negotiating with us, trying to stabilize us, while sending troops to attack us suddenly, the one who wants to catch us all!" Lu Shan was shocked and sweated. In this era when the information was not smooth, he was a little uncomfortable with relying on quick intelligence information.
"Brother Shan, what should I do?" Lei Dong became anxious when he heard this.
"Dongzi, have you seen this mountain road?" Lu Shan pointed to a very thin line on the map.
"I saw it. This is a mountain path, usually taken by hunters who go up the mountain." Lei Dong learned a lot from Lu Shan, including how to look at the map. He is no longer the Lei Dong who only knew a few big words in the past.
"You can pick up this path and go back immediately and notify Lao Qin to prepare for the fight. I will arrive later!" Lu Shan put away the map and said, "Please take the map. I guess this group of Japanese devils will arrive in Yanlong Mountain tomorrow morning. You must send the news before dawn!"
"Brother Shan, you are not familiar with the terrain, so you should keep the map!" Lei Dong refused.
"No, you carry a map with you. Don't worry, this is a military order, not a joke. If you delay for a while, then you will be engaged in military law!" Lu Shan said sternly, "Besides, I have already remembered the route on this map in my mind."
"yes!"
“Go out now!”
"Brother Shan, be careful!"
After saying that, Lei Dong turned around and disappeared into the forest, leaving Lu Shan to lie alone on the mountainside watching the Japanese and puppet troops pass through under his eyes and nose.
The team of nearly 300 people was lengthened, and it was seventy or eighty meters long. Lu Shan watched them disappear from his sight.
There is no other way on the map. Lu Shan wants to be ahead of the other party, so he can only walk the path that Lei Dong has just left.
Lei Dong had already walked ahead again, and Lu Shan could move along the traces he left behind.
Naturally, the small roads are not as good as the main roads, and the mountain roads are not that easy to walk on, especially at night, when it is dark and the face is painful due to the mountain wind.
This is a huge test of willpower and physical strength for Lu Shan.
However, this is nothing. The life-and-death battle in the Myanmar jungle has come. Do you still care about this little way?
In the end, Lu Shan took the lead and came to the next fork in front of the Japanese and the puppet troops. As long as he determined which road the Japanese took, he could determine whether they were going to Yanlong Mountain.
When marching at night, although there were vanguards and guides in front of them, the Japanese were still very careful when they walked away. They were far away from the villages and mountains, and at night they became a world of beasts and bandits.
Hearing the sound of the car motor, Lu Shan quietly lay on the hillside waiting for the Japanese to arrive.
Two shiny beams of light appeared from far to near, and soon appeared on the mountain road not far in front of Lushan.
This time it was less than fifty meters away, and you could see the abominable faces of the Japanese in the cab without using the telescope.
This is a three-fork intersection. The one on the left is the direction leading to Yanlong Mountain, the one on the right is the direction leading to Shilihe Town, and the one in the middle is the village called Xiaodonggou.
The car stopped at the three-chao intersection, and a Japanese lieutenant got out of a car in front of him, said a few words to the guide, then ran to the second truck, said a few words to the colonel in the car, then stood at attention and nodded again.
The Japanese lieutenant ran up and said to the guide "open the way", and then got into the car again. The Japanese vanguard followed the guide on the mountain road to the left.
Lu Shan's heart couldn't help but sank. Although there were still several forks on this road, Lu Shan couldn't think of which villages would the Japanese go to when they were sneaking around?
He used so many people to arrest the rioters in the middle of the night? Did the Japanese take the wrong medicine?
There is no other possibility. This group of Japanese and puppet troops can only come to Yanlong Mountain.
Lu Shan continued to track for a while and found that the group of Japanese puppet troops ignored the villages along the way, and the target was about to emerge.
At this moment, Lu Shan had no intention of following him, took a small path and rushed back to Yanlongshan with all his strength.
When Lu Shan felt Yanlong Mountain with a white frost on his face, the martial law was already on the mountain, and a tense atmosphere of war enveloped the entire village.
As soon as Lu Shan, the backbone, came back, Qin Shiyu and other main backbone team members breathed a sigh of relief.
If you want to say now, only Lu Shan can be regarded as the Dinghai Sword of this team!
"Dongzi, come and get water, I'll wash my face!" Lu Shan handed the whip to Guo Shuang and said to Lei Dong.
After running all night, he consumed a lot of physical energy and was very tired.
"Captain, everyone is waiting for you. You said, how to fight this battle, everyone will listen to you!" Song Xiaobao said.
"Yes, Lao Lu, we have been discussing for almost an hour and have not yet formed a plan." Qin Shiyu said.
"Give me some food first." Lu Shan waved his hand and said calmly, "Tell me what do you think?"
"All of us tend to ambush. After all, we only have such a few people, and most of them have no combat experience. If we fight head-on, we will definitely not be able to beat it." Qin Shiyu introduced.
"Ambush, where is the ambush position chosen? How are the troops configured?" Lu Shan took a steamed bun, took a bite, and went straight to the topic. In fact, he also wanted to use the ambush method. There was no good way in a hurry. It depends on the commander's ability to respond on the spot!
"Here, Xiaoxigou, the terrain here is like a split ladle. Although as long as these three commanding heights are occupied, it will become a trend of closing the door and fighting dogs, the only disadvantage is that we have too few people. Although we have heavy weapons, we can operate too few and cannot form combat effectiveness. Moreover, the terrain here is very wide. Once the enemy divides the bandits, we can't stop them even if we want to!" Wang Rong pointed to a position on the simple sand table and explained.
"This sand table is good, Lao Qin, you have made a lot of contributions!" Lu Shan glanced at the sand table briefly and said, everything he should have was. Although some places are a little rough, they are much more intuitive than the map.
"This is all due to Shuangzi. He has led people to travel around a radius of more than ten kilometers in the past two days before he made such a sand table!" Qin Shiyu explained.
"Well, remember Guo Shuang for one's sake!" Lu Shan nodded.
"Wang Rong, continue talking!" Lu Shan saw that he suddenly stopped and waved his hand. At this time, Lei Dong brought hot water, and Lu Shan washed it randomly with a towel.
"Captain, we have more than 100 people in total, and only two-thirds of the people who can fight, which means less than 100 troops. Although there are sufficient bullets, only we have practical experience. In addition, we have to keep people guarding the cottage. It is estimated that the ultimate military force can be about 70 people!" Wang Rong explained, pointing to various positions on the sand table and pointing, "We discussed that this battle will mainly focus on defeat, so we will put a heavy machine gun on this commanding height, and the other two will put a light machine gun on each. In addition, here, there will be a good marksmanship. The remaining attacks will be here and here, and the enemy will be attacked!"
Lu Shan stared at the sand table for a while, but did not express his opinion. In fact, he had just come back and thought, but he had to listen to other people's opinions first. After all, no matter how powerful a person's wisdom is, there are still things he cannot consider.
"The Japanese soldiers have an estimated fifty people, plus about 200 puppet troops, and there are a total of four heavy machine guns, twelve light machine guns, and there may be heavy weapons such as grenade launchers and mortars. So for us, this battle can be regarded as the first tough battle since the team was established. Everyone must be prepared for hard and bloody battles!" Lu Shan said hard.
Everyone's expressions tightened. Although they got a lot of weapons and equipment from the Japanese, these weapons and equipment had to develop combat effectiveness for at least three weeks. But now, three days have passed, and many people have not learned to use it yet, let alone fight accurately.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"This is an emergency news from Shahepu Town!" Guo Shuang walked in and handed a small note to Lu Shan.
Lu Shanneng looked at it and his face changed slightly!
The note was written in Japanese and was sent back by Ichiro Hara. The Japanese devils in Liaoyang were dispatched. A small team of more than 150 gunmen, with a total of 200 people, have entered Shahepu Town.
Song Zude also returned to his hometown with the team.
