Chapter 206 Duan Dashan
Chapter 206 Duan Dashan
After hearing what Taniguchi Mayu said, two military policemen rushed to the ground and dragged Harada to the other side of the mound.
"Get ready for battle!" Miyaji Teru also found a place to lie down and shouted at the top of his voice.
Upon hearing the order, the gendarmes quickly found shooting positions, pulled the bolts of their guns, and were ready to shoot at any time.
Harada was dragged all the way to Taniguchi Mayu before being released by two military police.
"Lieutenant Taniguchi, how could this happen! This shouldn't happen! How dare the security corps attack us!" Harada was stunned, still looking incredulous.
"How would I know what happened? I've always been with you!" Taniguchi Mayu said helplessly, but he was very happy in his heart. The acting skills of his gendarmerie were getting better day by day.
At this moment, Miyadera Teru shouted, "Attack! Protect the safety of the squadron leader and Commander Harada! Shoot!"
All of a sudden, the surrounding gendarmes pulled the triggers of their rifles. . . .
Harada, who was lying on the ground, couldn't help but look up in the direction of the security soldiers opposite.
But just as he raised his head, a bullet flew past his head. Harada was so scared that he immediately lowered his head and buried it in the mud.
A few hundred meters away from the small mound, Zhang Xianchen slowly put down the rifle in his hand and then made a gesture to stop moving forward.
Seeing the military police on the opposite mound shooting wildly at the open space next to him, a complex thought surged in his mind.
The Japanese's execution ability is really amazing. They agreed to shoot where they wanted, and they shot there. Even at such a long distance, not a single bullet missed the target.
"Xian Chen, it's almost time, we should retreat. If we don't leave now, it will be bad if we are discovered by the security team."
On the other side, Chen Hexuan, who was wearing a Security Bureau uniform and holding a Type 30 rifle in his hand, whispered and fired another shot into the sky.
Beside Zhang Xianchen and Chen Hexuan, there were more than twenty people also wearing security uniforms, but these people obviously had no experience in using rifles.
When some people fired shots into the sky, the recoil would cause their arms to swing wildly, which made Zhang Xianchen feel frightened.
They were afraid that these people who were used to using pistols would swing their guns and shoot their own people.
"Okay, we can retreat now." Zhang Xianchen quickly agreed with Chen Hexuan, and then continued, "Old Chen, you lead the comrades to retreat first. I'm worried about Duan Dashan and the others, so I have to go over and keep an eye on them."
"Okay, I feel more relieved if you can go over. Dashan and his men are good at fighting the Japanese, but I'm also worried that they won't be able to resist and really fight the Japanese. You go over and keep an eye on them, and when they're almost done, quickly lead them to retreat. You should also pay more attention to your own safety."
Chen Hexuan gave some instructions and then asked the people around him to follow him.
Zhang Xianchen stayed where he was, continued to raise his rifle, aiming in the direction of the mound, and occasionally found a position far away from the military police and fired a few shots.
He waited until Chen Hexuan and the others walked away before putting away his rifle and heading towards the security team's ambush position.
Zhang Xianchen had undergone rigorous physical training, and despite taking a detour, he quickly returned to the site of the firefight between the Security Corps and the 16th Regiment.
Right at the point of exchange of fire, on the left side there is a small hilltop that is not high but is covered with larch trees.
Duan Dashan and a dozen of his companions were lying on a commanding height, watching hundreds of Japanese soldiers below who were using the terrain to slowly advance forward.
They also fought effectively with a security group of more than 2,000 people.
"Deputy Captain! Let's just stand there and watch. If it's your opinion, we can just launch a surprise attack on these little devils. They won't be able to detect us!"
A young man lying next to Duan Dashan said dissatisfiedly while aiming at the Japanese soldiers below.
These dozen people were actually from the Anti-Japanese United Army, and the so-called deputy captain Duan Dashan was Xu Ziping’s husband. . . .
"Erwa is right. This is a good opportunity. The security team has attracted all the attention of the Japanese soldiers below. If we launch a sneak attack, we can definitely kill a lot of them." Another person echoed, looking eager to try.
"Yes, even if the Japanese below discover us, they can't catch us! We just need to retreat to the woods behind us, and these little Japanese can only dream of catching us." There were quite a few people who wanted to fight the Japanese, and another person came out to persuade them.
However, there were also some cool-headed people who immediately objected, "What are you talking about! What did the political commissar tell us before we went down the mountain? Once we get to Harbin, all actions must be obeyed by Secretary Chen! We can't act recklessly!" An older, bearded man said in a calm tone, which was completely different from his bold image.
"That's right! Besides, my sister-in-law hasn't been rescued yet. If we are exposed like this, we have to retreat back to the mountain. What about my sister-in-law and Huihui?"
"I heard from Secretary Chen that Sister Xu and Huihui were captured by the military police. We should think more about how to rescue them and not fight the devils here."
Two more people came out and agreed with the bearded man's opinion and disagreed with the sneak attack on the Japanese below.
"Hey, I didn't say I wouldn't save my sister-in-law. I meant that we should launch a surprise attack and not waste such a good opportunity. We will retreat after the fight. It won't have any impact, right?"
Duan Dashan listened to what the people around him said and felt a little tempted. The backs of the Japanese soldiers below were completely exposed to his and others' guns.
But Xu Ziping and Huihui really needed to be rescued by himself. Although it was extremely difficult to rescue people from the gendarmerie, if he was exposed here and attracted pursuit, there would be no hope at all.
"The rendezvous time has passed, why haven't Laogui and Huzi come back yet! We want to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese down there, but with just a dozen of us now, we can't kill many!" Duan Dashan didn't say whether to launch a surprise attack or not in the end, but asked about another matter instead.
"Old Ghost and his men sneaked over to the security corps and shot at the Japs. I hope nothing will happen!" someone said worriedly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the dozen or so people at the scene fell silent. They stopped arguing about whether to launch a sneak attack and started to worry about Lao Gui and the others.
Just when Duan Dashan couldn't help but want someone to go and take a look, a few bird calls suddenly came from the forest on one side.
"It's Lao Gui and the others who are back!" one person said in surprise, and then he joked to his companions: "Speaking of the devil, here he comes. We were just worried about their safety, and now they're back."
Everyone smiled.
Soon, a group of more than a dozen people wearing security corps uniforms came over.
"Old ghost, how are you? You haven't been discovered, have you?" Duan Dashan stood up and went to greet him.
Although there is an "Old" in his name, Lao Gui is not very old, only about 30 or 40 years old. It's just that because he has been living in the open air for many years, his face is weathered and looks old, so everyone calls him Lao Gui.
