At the gate of the city, four Japanese soldiers stood on both sides of the doorway holding rifles. In front of them was Luzhai, a bunker built with sandbags, and a machine gun was set up there. However, the Japanese soldiers behind were obviously a little lax and were following the Japanese around them.
The soldiers were talking in low voices.
In their opinion, this is the safest place. Unless their brains are short-circuited, those Chinese who are being pursued will definitely not fall into a trap here.
Two puppet soldiers wore their hats crookedly and held rifles in their hands. They stood beside the Japanese with a shaky look. They were responsible for checking the pedestrians entering the city. From time to time, they wiped oil on some young women and then laughed wildly.
There was a loud noise, but those pedestrians did not dare to break out and could only endure it.
There were quite a lot of people entering the city today, and there were many queues. The few puppet soldiers still walked leisurely and unhurriedly, checking the things of passers-by.
At the end of the team, seven or eight people looked anxiously toward the city gate. They seemed to be dissatisfied with the puppet army's procrastination. Two of them were about to step out of the queue, but they were stopped by a handsome middle-aged man behind them.
The young man was restrained and had to retreat.
Zheng Xiao appeared silently behind them, lined up with them, and walked towards the city together. The other two special forces members who came together to investigate did not show up. They were probably observing and guarding in secret, and protecting Zheng Xiao.
Safety.
The team moved forward slowly, and Zheng Xiao also moved forward. He pretended to accidentally bump into the big man in front of him, and his arm happened to be on the opponent's lower back, and he touched the hard handle of the gun.
.
The big man was startled. He turned back suddenly and stared at Zheng Xiao with his bright eyes. His right hand had already been inserted into the lower back, and it seemed that he was holding the guy.
Several of the companions around him had obviously noticed what was going on here. They all made some moves, reaching their arms into their arms or tucking them into their sleeves. They all seemed ready to take action at any time.
The handsome middle-aged man also noticed the sudden appearance of Zheng Xiao. He stretched out his hand to signal to those people, and then walked towards Zheng Xiao, as if he wanted to ask Zheng Xiao.
Zheng Xiao didn't intend to get into trouble with them. He took his right hand out of his pocket, shook his palm at a few people, then turned around and walked away in the direction he came from.
The handsome-looking middle-aged people and others all saw what was in Zheng Xiao's palm. Their expressions changed drastically. They didn't care about queuing up, and they all turned around and chased after him.
Zheng Xiao was very fast. They watched Zheng Xiao disappear at the corner of the avenue, so they followed him without any hesitation.
There was no one on the road in front of them, and several people couldn't help but be confused, thinking that they had just been dazzled.
The handsome middle-aged man said to the big man who was next to Zheng Xiao just now, "Qu Hu, please check your gun."
Qu Hu responded, then pulled out the box gun, only to find that the magazine in the gun had disappeared at some point, leaving only an empty gun.
"This man is so fast." The handsome middle-aged man praised, but he was not too worried because he knew that the other party was not hostile.
Otherwise, just by shouting at the city gate, the Japanese will discover the abnormality of people like them, and then it will be a dream to enter the city.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man clasped his hands and shouted into the surrounding green gauze tent, "I don't know which friend is here, Ma Zhenshan, an anti-Japanese volunteer soldier."
With a roar, the green gauze tent on the left shook, revealing Zheng Xiao's figure. He smiled and cupped his hands, "I am Zheng Xiao, please take a step to speak."
Without any doubt, Ma Zhenshan led people into the green gauze tent and came to Zheng Xiao. Only then did he realize that there were two other people on the other side, both dressed in strange and weird clothes and holding guns in their hands.
Just by looking at each other, he realized that the two men were experienced warriors and had a strong evil aura about them. None of the people he had brought with him were any match for them.
Moreover, as someone who was born in the military, he could see the strong military aura of his subordinates, which could not be concealed no matter how hard he tried.
"Such an outstanding soldier, even though he was rare in the Northeastern Army at the time, should have been a general with a heavy hand. How come I haven't heard of it?" Ma Zhenshan was also an important general in the Northeastern Army at the time.
He has a wide range of contacts, and he knows almost all the senior generals of the Northeast Army, but he has never met this young man.
However, this prevents him from interacting with the other party, which may be beneficial to the future of the Japanese Volunteer Army.
"I'm sorry for the offence." Before Ma Zhenshan could say anything, Zheng Xiao first clasped his fists, then threw a magazine to the big man, and said with a smile, "Having no choice but to make this move, Zheng Xiao
.”
Ma Zhenshan laughed loudly and waved his hand boldly, "It doesn't matter, we don't know each other until we fight."
These people are generous people, so it was easy to get over it and talk about it together.
After talking for a few words, Zheng Xiao looked at Ma Zhenshan and then asked the main topic, "Commander Ma, why did you enter Dongyang County this time?"
Although Ma Zhenshan was only in his thirties, he was already the column commander of the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, with more than 7,000 men under his command. He was the most serious problem for the Japanese invaders in the three eastern provinces.
When Ma Zhenshan heard Zheng Xiao ask about this, he smiled, "This time we have organized a part of the troops in the Guandong Mountain area to prepare for a raid on Dongyang County, dealing a heavy blow to the Japanese and boosting the anti-Japanese fighting spirit in the three eastern provinces."
It turns out that since the Japanese invaders occupied the three northeastern provinces, the anti-Japanese struggle has never stopped, but they were all suppressed wildly by the Japanese invaders.
The bloody actions and high-pressure tactics of the Japanese invaders affected the rising anti-Japanese sentiment. In addition, the Japanese invaders deliberately released some attractive profit conditions. Some unsteady resistance forces could not resist the temptation and finally surrendered to the Japanese.
embrace.
In the first three months of this year alone, more than 170 anti-Japanese forces surrendered to the Japanese and became their lackeys and accomplices, in turn killing their own people.
Therefore, the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army decided to launch a major counterattack in the Kanto Mountains area where the bandits were the most powerful. By severely damaging the Japanese troops, they would boost the fighting spirit of the anti-Japanese comrades and reverse the unfavorable situation.
Ma Zhenshan was the last to arrive with a few guards this time. The troops participating in the Dongyang Riots had already entered the county and were ready to launch at any time.
After hearing his plan, Zheng Xiao was really surprised and happy. He didn't expect that Ma Zhenshan's appearance would alleviate the crisis he encountered.
Originally, he planned to make a sneak attack on the county town, attract the Japs' attention, and then turn around and use the Japs' opening to escape, but now he has a new plan.
Now that we have caught up with the Dongyang riot, we will play a big game and cooperate with Ma Zhenshan to eliminate the Japanese in Dongyang County. This will not only inspire people's anti-Japanese fighting spirit, but also advance their previous plans.
When he told Ma Zhenshan his thoughts, Commander Ma was naturally very happy. The more people who can participate in the riot, the better. This shows that it is a good thing that more people have joined the anti-Japanese torrent.
In this way, Ma Zhenshan and Zheng Xiao finalized their plan, deciding to sneak into the city first and then command a riot.
