Chapter 75 Prediction
Huting stronghold.
Candles were still lit in Kuroshima Morita's dormitory.
Since the Eighth Route Army always took advantage of the night to launch sneak attacks, the Japanese army had to make adjustments.
It is unrealistic to ask the entire Black Island Team to reverse their day and night schedules, but it is okay for some people to adjust their work and rest schedules.
Today is the first day of adjusting the work and rest schedule. The old man set an example by sleeping for a whole day to get enough rest, so he doesn't plan to sleep again at night. He is playing chess with Xi Zhuyi now.
Nishi Takeichi also slept for a whole day, so he was very energetic.
On the chessboard, Nishitake chased a big dragon of Kuroshima Morita from the Tianyuan position all the way to the upper right corner, and was about to form a siege.
Kuroshima Morita fell into deep thought.
Nishitakeichi deliberately looked for topics to disturb Kuroshima Morita's mind.
"Captain, calculate the time, that Tubalu should be here."
Kuroshima Morita ignored him and continued to think with a black chess piece in his hand.
Xi Zhuyi asked again, "What do you think? Will the Tubalu hide at a distance of 200 meters tonight like they did the night before, or will they approach within 50 meters like they did last night?"
Kuroshima Morita still frowned and said nothing.
Xi Zhuyi added: "I think he will hide at a distance of 200 meters, maybe even further."
"What's the reason?" Kuroshima Morita finally lost his concentration and asked with a frown, "Why are you sure that the Tubalu will hide at a distance of 200 meters or even farther?"
Xi Zhu said: "Because there is a proverb in China that says if you are successful, don't go any further, otherwise you will suffer a great loss."
"There is a proverb in China," said Kuroshima Morita, "that the most dangerous place is often the safest, so I am sure the Tubalu will enter within fifty meters."
Xi Zhu said, "That Tubalu soldier is probably dead."
"Xizhu-kun, be more confident." Kuroshima Morita said, "I'm not afraid, I'm sure. Tonight, if that Tubalu doesn't come, it's fine. But if he dares to come, he will definitely die!"
After so many days of hard work, it’s time to get a result.
Such harassment cannot continue.
Otherwise the morale of the troops will be affected.
…
At this time, Wang Ye had already arrived near the Huting stronghold.
The night before yesterday and the night before last, although the lurking distances were different, the directions were the same, both chosen to be directly north of the Huting stronghold.
So tonight,
Wang Ye decided to change direction.
Only a fool would attack the Japanese three times from the same location.
However, Wang Ye did not choose the opposite south direction, but chose the northeast direction.
After tying up his warhorse, Wang Ye tiptoed towards the Huting stronghold from the northeast with his tool bag.
The situation at the Huting stronghold was similar to that of the previous two nights. There were no lights, only a few bonfires scattered around the stronghold, and the sentries could still be seen by the light of the fire.
Everything seems normal.
But Wang Ye smelled a different smell from it.
According to common sense, after suffering two consecutive losses, the Japanese in the Huting stronghold would definitely make targeted deployments, such as not starting another fire.
Or deploy ambush sentries outside the stronghold?
Ambush sentry? Wang Ye's heart moved slightly. It was very likely.
Anyway, if he were Kuroshima Morita , he would definitely deploy secret sentries outside.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Japanese should have ambushed a large number of sentries outside the stronghold, waiting for him to reveal his position and then immediately launch a reverse encirclement from the outside to the inside.
The calculations are quite accurate.
But since I have already predicted it, it’s useless.
At that moment, Wang Ye stopped moving forward and stopped two kilometers away from the Huting stronghold.
First, place the bench quietly on the ground, then tie the musket to the top of the bench and point the muzzle at the stronghold, then tie one end of the silk thread to the trigger of the musket and the other end to the brick.
Then brush the prepared vegetable oil on the bench surface and the bottom surface .
Finally, he placed the brick on the top of the bench, turned around and ran back.
Because the temperature is too low, the viscosity of the vegetable oil increases, so the sliding of the bricks slows down.
Wang Yetu had already rushed into the grove two hundred meters away, and his machine gun had not even been fired.
Just when Wang Ye suspected that the mechanism had malfunctioned and was hesitating whether to go back and check, a dazzling red light suddenly burst out in the darkness ahead, followed by a loud bang!
In order to make the biggest noise possible,
Wang Ye loaded half a tube of black gunpowder into the barrel of the musket!
When so much black powder is ignited in an instant, there is only one consequence, and that is barrel explosion!
So this loud noise was so earth-shattering that it could be heard several kilometers away.
What's more, there was the dazzling red light that burst out when the barrel exploded. It was really a guiding light in the darkness! Wang Ye seriously suspected that half of the Japanese in the stronghold had been awakened.
…
Time goes back a few minutes.
Inside the Hu Tei stronghold, Kuroshima Jiro was hiding in the darkness and blowing air into his palms.
It was freezing cold, and it was really hard to stay outside for a long time, unable to move or make any noise. Kuroshima Jiro felt like he was about to freeze to death.
All he could do was blow air into his palms.
Make sure your fingers don't get frozen due to the cold.
He didn't know how much time had passed in the silence and boredom, maybe a few hours, maybe a few minutes. Just when Kuroshima Jiro could no longer bear it and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly saw a dazzling red light out of the corner of his eye.
When I looked closely, I found that the red light was blooming from two kilometers in front of the right.
A few seconds later, there was a loud bang, as if something exploded.
Although the distance was a bit far, Kuroshima Jiro pressed the heavy machine gun weight without hesitation.
The Type 92 heavy machine gun mounted on the hard ground roared immediately, and a dazzling tongue of fire instantly shot out from the muzzle, shooting towards the ball of red light two kilometers ahead to the right.
Almost at the same time, several other heavy machine guns also opened fire fiercely.
While firing, Kuroshima Jiro shouted, "Two o'clock, fire flares, quick!"
Along with Kuroshima Jiro's roar, three "bang bang bang" sounds were heard not far away, and then three flares rose into the air with a squeaking sound.
This time the Japs reacted much faster.
A few seconds later, three dazzling lights suddenly appeared in the sky.
It was three flares burning fiercely in the air, casting a strong light.
With the strong light from the flares, it can be clearly seen that the ambushing troops outside the stronghold have jumped out of their hiding places and rushed towards two points with roars.
Kuroshima Jiro then turned his gaze to two directions.
However, the next second, Kuroshima Jiro was stunned.
Because there was nothing in the two directions, not even a ghost!
There was a bright red light and a huge explosion just now, but there was still no one at the two o'clock direction? Could it be that the Tubalu could really fly? How else could we explain it ?
No, the Eighth Route Army must have hidden themselves!
The Japanese ambush troops who jumped up and charged also thought so.
In such a short time, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to run far. He must have hidden himself.
The Japanese ambush troops howled and rushed towards two directions.
…
Wang Ye was also surprised.
The Japs were well prepared!
As expected, there were a large number of ambushes lurking outside the stronghold!
With the help of the strong light from the flares, Wang Ye estimated that there were at least hundreds of them!
Just like what he did last night, the Japanese also wrapped himself in a blanket with dirt sprinkled on it, so that when he lay down he could blend perfectly into the surrounding wilderness.
If these devils hadn't run away on their own, it would have been really hard to spot them.
If he had infiltrated from the north like he did last night, he would have been surrounded by now!
Faced with hundreds of Japanese soldiers surrounding him from all sides, with light and heavy machine gun fire inside the stronghold and flares overhead for guidance, he could not fly away even if he grew wings and turned into a birdman.
Seeing this, Wang Ye couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Damn, it was so dangerous, I almost got killed!
However, it was only a hundred million points short, you deserve this bad luck!
Taking cover from a white pine tree, Wang Ye quietly raised his Type 38 rifle with a silencer installed and aimed at the enemy soldier closest to him, but he did not shoot immediately.
Wang Ye was waiting, waiting for the moment when the flares went out.
The Japanese flares were fired from mortars.
Normally, the hovering time is 20 seconds.
After 20 seconds, the flares in the sky dimmed one after another.
The wilderness, which was originally as bright as day, suddenly became dark, and human eyes became blind.
Because human pupils will contract when the light is bright, they will not have time to expand when they suddenly enter a dark environment, and the amount of light received will become less. The direct consequence is temporary blindness.
It's not a good time to shoot.
Because when humans lose their eyesight, their hands will shake.
But Wang Ye doesn't know how to do that, he has received professional training.
The moment the light dimmed, he pulled the trigger.
