    Chapter 461 Autumn Harvest and Winter Storage 19

    "Click, click, click", the light machine gun behind him roared, "Swish, swish, swish" Watanabe could feel the hot bullets passing by him.  At this time, Watanabe no longer dared to pretend to be a "Japanese samurai". He dropped his gun and the sergeant's command sword. He no longer ignored his comrades around him and fled to the fields outside the village.

    As expected, Watanabe, who has been in battle for a long time, has rich combat experience, and his escape skills are not weak. After a while, Cao Chang Watanabe disappeared into the heavy dusk.

    Because the attack was launched in a hurry, the Sixth Squadron did not make a careful plan for the attack. It was carried out entirely based on the brave spirit of the soldiers, so there was no time to completely surround the village.  After the attack of the Sixth Squadron, although many Japanese and puppet troops fell on the ground, many enemies still followed Watanabe and ran away at dusk.

    Among the fallen enemies, there were surprisingly those two Japanese soldiers. One of the two Japanese soldiers was dead and the other was wounded.  The injured one was naturally upright and dead, while the injured one was lying on the ground crying and screaming.

    The enemies seemed to have been beaten away, but the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Squadron did not dare to be careless. These beaten enemies might be hiding nearby. For the sake of safety at night, the officers and soldiers began to search everywhere for enemies who might be hiding in nooks and crannies.

    In this short period of time, all the villagers in the village rushed out, holding hoes and sticks in their hands. They hit the Japanese and puppet soldiers as soon as they saw them falling on the ground, regardless of whether the Japanese and puppet soldiers fell on the ground.  Dead or not.

    The Japanese who was howling just now was beaten to death by the villagers three times. Some soldiers were about to stop him, but Shen Zengshun said: "These beasts deserve to die, let the common people vent their anger."

    The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, and the puppet troops ran very fast. In the end, the Sixth Squadron picked up a lot of guns and ammunition, but there were only two puppet prisoners alive.

    These two prisoners are also puppet soldiers. One of them was injured and the other was lost. Both of them are veterans. Although they were captured by the Japanese, they still looked like they didn't care.

    The battle was over. Shen Zengshun ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and at the same time sent people to report the battle to the rear overnight.

    This time the battle was small, the enemy's resistance was weak, and they escaped very quickly.  Shen Zengshun had dealt with the Japanese many times, and he knew very well that the Japanese were bound to retaliate. In order to prevent the enemy from retaliating late at night, Shen Zengshun set up many hidden sentries around Zhongguo Village at night.

    Shen Zengshun did not know that the Japanese and puppet troops attacking the New Fifth Army this time were not very strong. Their front troops had already protruded to a very long distance because their "attack" on the New Fifth Army was progressing too smoothly.

    Night shrouded the earth, and everything was pitch black. Watanabe and some of the puppet soldiers who escaped did not know how far they ran. The place where they finally stopped was a small forest.

    There are no more pursuers behind you, but that doesn¡¯t mean everything is safe.  When they escaped from the village just now, Watanabe and the others didn't have time to identify the direction. In fact, even if they determined the direction at that time, they had to make many twists and turns during the escape. Watanabe and the others still don't know where they are now.

    There is a village not far from the grove. The village does not look too small. You can see dots of lights here, and a few barking dogs can be heard from time to time in the village.

    There are people living in the village, which is very tempting to the tired and hungry Watanabe, but Watanabe does not dare to enter the village.  After running for so long, Watanabe was not sure whether this was a Japanese-occupied area or a Kuomintang-controlled area. To be on the safe side, these people resisted their hunger and thirst and hid in the woods all night.

    Early the next morning, these people found their way through the direction of the sun rising from the mountain, and they hurriedly fled to the east.

    For fear that they were still in a dangerous zone, Watanabe and the puppet soldiers did not dare to enter the village to find food and drink even though they were tired and hungry. They ran like bereft dogs until late in the evening, when Watanabe and the others suddenly saw an interloper.  The stronghold with plaster flags stopped.

    After Watanabe and others broke into the stronghold, they had a feast and reported the attack on themselves to the Japanese troops stationed in Shuizhi by phone.  In order to make their escape not too embarrassing, Watanabe and his friends exaggerated the size of the opponent's army. They reported that they had received an attack with a large force.

    The New Fifth Army has received strong support!  Shuizhi's Japs came to this conclusion after receiving Watanabe's report.

    The Japanese are not fools. After looking at the map and analyzing some intelligence, they knew that Li Qinglin's ninth detachment had taken action.

    Standing in front of the one-fifty-thousandth military map, the Japanese commander Ishihara broke into a cold sweat after thinking about it for a while.

    This time, it was Ishihara who was the first to attack the New Fifth Army.Obviously, attacking the New Fifth Army is just a cover, the purpose is to attract everyone's attention to this area.  Ishihara, the Japanese commander who is accustomed to dealing with the Japanese troops, knows the secrets between the various Japanese troops. He has always believed that the Ninth Detachment and the New Fifth Army are not from the same faction, so even if the Ninth Detachment sends troops to support them, they will not  Go all out, so the number of troops sent by the Japanese army to attack the New Fifth Army is not considered to be very large.

    The Ninth Detachment does not have many troops, and the territory it occupies is not large. The Japanese have fought against the Ninth Detachment several times, and they have also suffered several losses after the fight. Therefore, they know that the Ninth Detachment is not a general in the ordinary sense.  Guerrilla troops.

    The Ninth Detachment is a guerrilla force and is said to have no deep friendship with the New Fifth Army. The decisive attack of the Ninth Detachment this time proves that the First Theater Command issued a fatal order requiring the Ninth Detachment to fully support the New Fifth Army.  Moreover, to deal with a small force like Watanabe, the Ninth Detachment dispatched a large force, which means that the Ninth Detachment may have deployed all its forces.  If the Ninth Detachment is really dispatched in full, then the escape route for the Japanese and puppet troops to attack the New Fifth Army is very likely to be cut off by the Ninth Detachment; at this time, if the New Fifth Army concentrates its forces to give the Japanese and puppet troops a head-on blow.  , the troops in front are in danger.

    Confused by the intelligence that Watanabe was attacked by a brigade, Ishihara immediately issued a new combat order: the Japanese and puppet troops that had advanced into the New Fifth Army positions were to shrink across the board, and the withdrawing troops gathered in the direction of Zhongguo Village;  A mobile force was immediately prepared to start attacking in the direction of Zhongguo Village tomorrow; the two forces moved toward each other, striving to entangle the main force of the Ninth Detachment near Zhongguo Village, and eventually capture the Ninth Detachment.  A main force was wiped out on the spot.

    Ishihara's order was quickly sent out via the radio. The mopping up troops that had penetrated deep into the New Fifth Army's positions also followed the orders and prohibited them. They packed their luggage overnight and tried to force a march toward Zhongguo Village early tomorrow morning.

    Shen Zengshun was not idle either. The battle they took away Watanabe's small force was very small. The casualties suffered by Shen Zengshun and the others were naturally very small, but they had to deal with a lot of things after they settled down, and these things were all  It¡¯s about the common people.

    In fact, the people in Zhongguo Village did not go far. When Shen Zengshun and others marched over, these people thought that there was hope for returning home. They all ran out of their hiding places and returned to Zhongguo Village with the large army.

    When the battle was over, the family of the peasant woman killed by the Japanese was naturally grief-stricken. They spent the night building a coffin to bury the dead person the next day.  After the other two women who had been defiled by the Japanese were rescued, they felt that they were shameless. If their families didn't pay attention, they would either hang themselves with ropes, commit suicide with knives, and even once tried to commit suicide by jumping into a well.

    The two living beings were fighting for life and death, and the village was noisy and peaceful.  The villagers are generally illiterate, and this is the first time they have encountered something like this, especially if it involves a woman's reputation. It is difficult for others to come forward to persuade her. In the end, the old patriarch of the village was really helpless, so he  Find Shen Zengshun and ask the army to help persuade the woman who insists on committing suicide.

    Shen Zengshun is also a veteran. During his time in the army, some of his comrades or his subordinates were captured and humiliated. He deeply understands the despair of those who have been humiliated.  However, this matter was related to civil affairs, which was not the scope of the traditional military forces. Shen Zengshun expressed his helplessness at first.  But the old patriarch did not give up. He repeatedly emphasized: "You are the army sent by the central government. You are all sensible people. Your words are more convincing than us."

    Looking at the pleading old patriarch, Shen Zengshun softened his heart and finally agreed to the matter.

    Following the old patriarch, Shen Zengshun arrived at the home of one of the women.  There are five people in this family, old and young. The woman's parents-in-law are still alive, and she also has a child who is over one year old.  Because there was such a big scandal in the family, and the woman was still crying and wanting to commit suicide, except for the humiliated woman who hid in the back room and cried, the rest of the family gathered in the yard and sighed.

    As soon as Shen Zengshun entered the house, he saw the child. The child was a boy, fat and fat.  He was probably very tired during the day, and now he was lying in his grandma's arms and fell asleep.

    Seeing this child, Shen Zengshun had an idea.  Before entering the house, Shen Zengshun said to the old patriarch: "Women care about face, so you don't have to go in. I will explain the truth clearly by myself and the matter will be solved."

    The old patriarch nodded repeatedly and said: "Sir, as long as you can keep her alive, we will do whatever you say." At this point, the old patriarch sighed and said, "It is difficult for us villagers to get married.  ah."

    Shen Zengshun entered the house and saw a dim oil lamp lit in the back room. A young woman was lying on the kang and crying sadly.

    Shen ZengshunWithout immediately speaking to persuade her, he found a bench and sat down, took out a cigarette, lit it on the oil lamp and started smoking.

    After a while, the crying woman started laughing, and Shen Zengshun said, "Sister-in-law, you gave birth to the child outside, right?"

    The woman on the kang did not answer. Shen Zengshun continued: "This child has a tiger-like head and a tiger-like brain. How cute he is."

    I don¡¯t know where Shen Zengshun¡¯s words touched the woman¡¯s sadness, but she burst into tears.
