The War of Resistance

Time passes quickly or slowly. Another week has passed, and there is still no news about Shang Zhen.

Wang Laomao and the others have temporarily garrisoned with the large army.

Because there was no news about Shang Zhen, everyone became listless. Sometimes Bai Zhan deliberately flirted and tried to liven up the atmosphere, but he stopped when the veterans said, "Are you so annoying?"

In fact, isn't Bai Zhan's antics his own way of diverting emotions? He just felt that Shang Zhen was not panicking in his heart.

Little Dustpan is still recovering from his injuries, and he lives not far from Wang Lao Mao and the others. This is probably the only thing that makes Wang Lao Mao and the others happy.

Gao Yuyan was still in love with Shang Zhen, but as time passed, she felt that she was afraid that Shang Zhen would never come back again, and she was naturally frightened.

This time, he was moving with a large army, and Mr. Wang couldn't find a separate house to live with Ju Hongxia.

In the evening, Ju Hongxia was able to chat with Gao Yuyan.

In the night, women were whispering among themselves, and at this time, someone in a broken house who didn't know how far away was also whispering.

They probably talked for a few minutes before the puppet soldiers shouted at them outside, so everyone stopped discussing and left the smelly room.

"Creak", the door was pushed open, and with the light generated by the fire as the background, a person stood at the door.

And just as the man turned around and squeezed into the room, the firelight gave his face a faint halo, and it was clearly Shang Zhen.

At this time, three more people squeezed in from behind, causing a commotion in the room.

Because there are many people "packed" in this room, although the light is dim, you can still see that these people are in ragged clothes. It turns out that they are common people who were captured by the Japanese army to repair fortifications, in other words, strong men.

Shang Zhen squatted by the wall. He felt that his place was still a bit small, so he squeezed in, and then he heard complaints.

The room was large, but there were more people inside. For the sake of convenience, the Japanese and puppet soldiers who imprisoned them would naturally try to cram them into as few rooms as possible.

"Why is it so crowded?" That was the voice of the old fool.

At this time, Qingfeng Li's voice came from behind the old man, and there was only one word "crowd".

So the three of them, Shang Zhen, Li Qingfeng, Old Man and Stupid, squeezed into the house together.

There was a "bang", and before the door was closed outside, another person was forced in. That was Wang Xiaodan.

The appearance of Shang Zhen and the others was like throwing stones into the pond. After the sound passed, everything finally calmed down.

A moment later, Shang Zhen was squatting by the wall. On his left and right were captured young men. Although it was winter, Shang Zhen could still smell the sweaty smell.

Life's circumstances are unpredictable. Shang Zhen never dreamed that he would be captured by the Japanese!

A few days ago, Shang Zhen and his new recruits Qingfeng Li and Wang Xiaodan took advantage of the darkness to escape from the Japanese army.

But after dawn, when they entered a village to look for food again, they were surrounded by Japanese soldiers in a village.

In the previous battle, Shang Zhen's box cannon had been run out of bullets, as had the rifle in Li Qingfeng's hand.

Guns without bullets can only lead to death, so Shang Zhen and the others could only hide the two weapons, one long and one short.

Then Shang Zhen didn't forget to use a bayonet to remove Qingfeng Li's Taoist bun that was originally tied on the back of his head.

But if that wasn't enough, Qingfeng Li and the big boss were rolling all over the floor again, making the Taoist robes they wore no longer conspicuous.

Fortunately, from Shang Zhen's point of view, Qingfeng Li was not a regular Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, and Big Ben was not the kind of monk with a heritage in famous mountains and temples. As far as the difference between their monks' robes and the clothes worn by ordinary people was concerned, Not very big.

What's more, their clothes were old clothes and had lost their original color a long time ago.

It was precisely because of this that the Japanese soldiers who besieged the village regarded them as ordinary people and captured them.

Then they were taken by the Japanese army to a place on the south bank of the Huaihe River to build fortifications for the Japanese army!

Shang Zhen could only tolerate this.

If a small person gains power, there will be times when chicken feathers fly into the sky. If a big person loses power, there will also be times when a tiger falls on the plain and is bullied by a dog. What's more, Shang Zhen doesn't think he is a big shot at all.

All he could do was look for opportunities to escape.

Once it involves escape, it also involves an escape plan.

The escape plan also involves the topography, the balance of power between the enemy and ourselves, etc.

Now that Shang Zhen had no gun in his hand, and even threw away the bayonet he used to prevent himself from being recognized by the Japanese and puppet soldiers, he had to be even more cautious.

The place where they are working now is less than 100 meters away from the Huaihe River in the north.

It is still winter. If you want to cross the Huaihe River north, you must have a boat and consider whether there are Japanese airboat patrols.

A few hundred meters to the south, where Shang Zhen and the other strong men now rest, is a dilapidated village, and further south of this village is an open land where you can see straight to the sky.

If you want to escape, you can only run south.

But Shang Zhen also observed that the Japanese and puppet troops here had a troika.

If they ran south on foot, the Japanese army could chase them in a horse-drawn carriage.

Shang Zhen didn't think that he and the others could outrun the carriage.

What's more, the so-called "shooting the first bird" is on the paddy fields with no water in sight. If I and the others ran to the front, they would definitely be shot by the Japanese army first.

This is natural. If it were Shang Zhen who was guarding the prisoner, he would definitely jump and run as fast as he could when he saw the prisoner escaping!

So running south during the day was not a good idea unless it was dark, but the Japanese army took very strict precautions against these strong men every night.

When a few of them went out just now, it was just an excuse to go out to poop, and there were puppet soldiers following them.

As soon as they came back, they were locked up in the house by the puppet troops. The doors and windows outside were all held up with wooden poles or tied with horizontal bars.

The Japanese army captured hundreds of strong men this time!

Qingfeng Li and Wang Xiaodan had to take them with him. As for the other strong men, Shang Zhen had not made up his mind.

Of course he wanted to save the other strong men, but he also knew that whether he could be rescued or not would depend on the situation.

The able-bodied men are ordinary people, or they can be said to be a mob. It is unrealistic to get all the able-bodied men out. Moreover, the Japanese army has now activated traitors. If you dare to instigate an escape among these able-bodied men, I guess your plan will be as good as just mentioned. If he is halfway there, he might be betrayed!

He is not a savior. He should keep a low profile and never overestimate his own strength. This is Shang Zhen's usual style.

There were fifty or sixty Japanese soldiers watching the strong men work every day, but Shang Zhen knew that there was a Japanese army group ahead, so running south was not a good choice.

Because of this, he delayed and did not run away.

And just when it was getting dark today, Shang Zhen realized that he had an opportunity to escape, because the Japanese army drove an airboat along the river, followed by a small boat, and each boat stopped during the day. The place where Shang Zhen's eyes can reach while working.

Just when Shang Zhen was leaving, he looked north specifically, and with the eyesight of a gunman, he was sure that he saw a small flashing red dot by the river. That was someone smoking.

Therefore, the Japanese airboat must not have been withdrawn, otherwise no one would be there to watch.

If things were just like this, then that would be it. Shang Zhen originally planned to take action at night.

But before he told the puppet soldiers guarding him to go out and untie the tub, another person was also clamoring to go out. As a result, a large group of people came out, and the puppet soldiers felt something was wrong and called out to several people. The companions looked at them together.

Of course they wouldn't let strong men like them squat there and shit while they smell the smell, but it was impossible for Shang Zhen to escape without making any noise.

But just when the strong men who went out to shit were squatting there, the man who later also went out to shit told them all, they said, let's run away tonight, if we don't run away from the Japanese As soon as the fortifications are completed, why not throw us all into the Huaihe River!

In this way, Shang Zhen became interested in that person, huh? There are really some people who don't want to be slaves to the subjugation of their country. Since they are planning to let the strong men "blow up the camp", they have no reason to object.
