Chapter 1259 Escape in the Night
After dark, Shang Zhen returned to the village. To his surprise, there were villagers waiting at the entrance of the village.
When Shang Zhen answered the villagers' questions, he heard the joy in his tone when the villagers heard it was him. It seemed that the villagers had already regarded him as their backbone.
When he briefly introduced the situation he had found in the investigation and expressed his thoughts and put forward his own opinions, the villagers quickly reached an agreement after a brief discussion.
That is, the village should not be left first. Everyone in the village followed Shang Zhen to leave the village first in the dark and avoid the Japanese troops around.
And at this time, in the night, Shang Zhen laughed silently.
It is undeniable that Shang Zhen is a very smart person, but generally speaking, a smart person is a person with complex minds, and a person with complex minds often complicates simple problems.
For example, Shang Zhen’s previous idea of worrying that the people were unwilling to leave the village was a bit overwhelming, and the villagers were not so unreasonable.
Since an agreement has been reached, the next thing will come naturally.
Shang Zhen and two volunteer villagers walked in front and acted as pioneers, and then the entire village followed.
And the two villagers were Xiaojiu's two brothers.
They were familiar with the situation on the surrounding mountains. They were led by them in the way of leaving the village and blockade by the Japanese army. Shang Zhen could provide them with protection.
But the villagers are villagers after all. When the township organizes these villagers and walks out of the village, it will be two hours later.
After all, there are still elderly people and children here, and children who are being held in their arms by women and breastfeeding.
Fortunately, the fear of death has become the invisible discipline in the minds of all villages, although many of them may not yet know what discipline is.
At this time, Shang Zhenzhen said that this was a marche that he had never experienced before.
There were stars in the sky, and the ground was filled with trivial sounds but they walked very slowly. He had never led the people to carry out such a marche.
Such a team will naturally not move fast, not to mention that after Xiaojiu's brothers led Shang Zhenke out of the village, they quickly stepped onto the fine sand.
The subtle rustling sound when stepping on the fine sand is even more negligible.
But at this moment, the people behind suddenly let out a "wow" cry of a baby.
This cry came so suddenly and loudly that everyone was shocked in the quiet night.
This is so scary!
Shang Zhen knew that he could not go back to care about the child, so he instinctively opened the gun in his hand and pointed it at the darkness ahead.
At this time, the villagers' downward voices came from behind. The sound was nothing more than "Stop the child's mouth", "Why are the child still crying?" "Hurry up and feed the child" and so on.
After a while, the child stopped crying, and Shang Zhen guessed that it must be that the child had eaten his mother's milk.
Alas, is it easy for a mother to raise a child? Shang Zhen sighed silently and thought, fortunately, the Japanese shouldn’t arrange people here just after leaving the village!
It is said that there are many unknowns in life, and there are also many unknowns in battle. Since sometimes it is not something that people can control, then you can also give your destiny to God.
The team moved forward again, still in the waterless river.
Shang Zhen guessed that it was raining in summer, and the water flowing from the surrounding mountains gathered and rushed out in a low terrain. However, the rainfall this year was light, so there was no water in the river channel.
But the Japanese army would never be ambushed in this river. Shang Zhen followed Xiaojiu's brothers and imagined the situation of the Japanese army ambushing while walking.
What is certain is that the Japanese army never dreamed that the villagers would kill the killer they sent, and then the villagers would take advantage of the darkness to walk out with the familiar terrain.
As a soldier, Shang Zhen followed Xiaojiu's brothers out while imagining the Japanese ambush.
Shang Zhen had a lot of dealing with the Japanese army. In the afternoon, he noticed that the Japanese army was disguised. So those Japanese soldiers would definitely hide in the woods and shrubs when they were ambushed on the hillside. Who would lie on a river without water in disguise clothes?
What's more, the night is dark now, and the Japanese army does not need to hide.
I hope that along this currently dry river, the villagers can walk out of the Japanese ambush circle safely!
The village is surrounded by the hills outside, which is three or four hundred meters away.
So, although their escape team walked slowly, Shang Zhen still saw the black shadow of the mountain under the stars after more than half an hour.
In later generations, a thermal imager that utilizes ultraviolet rays was already used in the military. Although the night could not be transparent, the heat source could be discovered after all.
But in terms of today's wars, if the Japanese army did not fire flares, who would know what would happen in the dark?
The darkness has become the best curtain to block the sight of both the enemy and us.
Under the darkness, people with noble character are doing good things, while those who are not so good are doing some miserable things, but in the darkness, they are fair, and they do not care about the good and evil of the world.
As he approached the mountain ahead, Shang Zhen became more and more careful. He didn't know what the Japanese army on the mountain was doing.
During the day, the mountains are not high, but at this time they are very dark and very tall.
If there were birds and animals hidden on this mountain in the past, today there were people-eating jackals hidden on the mountain.
I don’t know whether the jackal on the mountain is sleeping at this time, or whether she stares at the village with blue eyes and thinks of eating the people in the village.
Thinking of the jackal, Shang Zhen became worried and increased his attention even more.
Fortunately for him, one of Xiaojiu's brothers gently pulled him, which was to signal him to turn the corner.
The white riverbed in the dark night appears to be a faint color, like a gray-white band.
When he came out, Shang Zhen had already asked the villagers in detail the route they were going to take. They were walking along this river where there was no water or only sand for the time being.
Shang Zhen agreed with this. The river was between two mountains. If people walked on the fine sand surface that was thinner than the ground white flour, there would be no sound.
He didn't believe that this group of Japanese soldiers who were good at hiding their traces would hide under the fine sand. After all, this was a river channel. If there was fine sand on it and no water, it would not mean that there was no water below it. If the Japanese devil had not been kicked by a donkey, it would be impossible for him to hide under the sand in the middle of the night.
According to villagers, the terrain on both sides of the river is relatively flat, and the hills closest to both sides are each sixty or seventy meters away.
Thinking about the Transposition, if Shang Zhen was a Japanese army, he would not set up a guard post on the river, and the people should be placed on the commanding heights.
But even so, when Shang Zhen walked between the two mountains, he whispered a few words to one of Xiaojiu's brothers and then flashed to the side.
Who told him to cause trouble for himself that he had to care about these people whom he had never known? Then when he passed the Japanese blockade line, he naturally had to stay and cut off the rear.
The villagers walked past Shang Zhen, and Shang Zhen pressed his box cannon against the shadow of the black mountain in front of him. At this moment, Shang Zhen was undoubtedly silent and focused, as if he was the patron saint of this village.
