Chapter 962 The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind
The torches were beeping and burning, and hundreds of rifles were pointing at each other face to face. The personnel on both sides were tense and breathing heavily, and even the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
"Liu Heitan, I respect you as a man. Put down the gun. Don't hold it to death. I have more people and more guns than you. If we really fight, none of you will survive!"
"Zhang Baozi, at worst, we will fight to the death. If I die, I will have to take your back!" Liu Heitan, who fell into the trap, now regrets it endlessly.
He heard that Zhang Baozi set up a card in front of them to collect money, cutting off their financial path, so he led his men and rushed over aggressively, wanting to teach Zhang Baozi a lesson.
But who would have thought that this was a killing round. Zhang Baozi recruited dozens more people at some point. Now they are surrounded by guns and are already at an absolute disadvantage.
If he were asked to put down his gun and surrender, Liu Heitan would never have been treated with such cowardice. The so-called hanging around outside was just a shameless thing.
If he, Liu Heitan, gave in today, regardless of whether Zhang Baozi could bypass him as he said, he would not be able to stand up anyway because his reputation was ruined.
So now he would rather fight to the death with Zhang Baozi and others than suffer humiliation and lose his reputation.
Moreover, Liu Heitan felt that if there was a real fight, the gap between the two sides was only a few dozen people, so he might not lose. He had already quietly sent people to prepare hidden grenades, ready to blast a bloody path.
Zhang Baozi was not in a hurry. Liu Heitan and the others were already in trouble. If he hadn't wanted to recruit Liu Heitan's men, he wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense and just ignored them.
The reason he is now persuading him with sincerity is to divide and win over the people under Liu Heitan, thereby increasing his own strength.
Regardless of whether Liu Heitan surrendered or not, he was not prepared to let Liu Heitan go. He knew how to eradicate the roots. Now he had the upper hand. If Liu Heitan regained his strength, he would be the one to suffer.
.
While the two sides were pointing their guns at each other, in the distant fields shrouded in night, a group of Northern Jiangsu guerrilla officers and soldiers with guns and live ammunition were lurking, like poisonous snakes spitting out poison, ready to give their opponents a fatal blow at any time.
Blacksmith, the lieutenant colonel and battalion commander of the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps, was ordered by Yang Ling to find the local armed forces, integrate them, and assist them in fighting.
As soon as the blacksmith led his people out of Jieshou Town, he heard people fleeing from the south saying that someone was setting up cards to collect fees on the highway. They should be the local armed forces.
The blacksmith was worried about where to find the local armed forces. When he heard this, he led his brothers along the highway without saying a word.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, they did not come forward directly, but prepared to observe secretly to see the other party's situation.
Not long after the secret observation, he discovered such a scene of gangsters and gangsters. The blacksmith did not expect that the leopard would secretly ambush someone.
If they had just approached openly and openly, they might not have integrated the other party, but would have been tricked by the other party. This also made the blacksmith secretly wary of Zhang Baozi.
"Battal Commander, I have taken the brothers to see. There are no more ambushes in the surrounding fields. Their people are all over there."
Assault reconnaissance platoon leader Sun Liang, who had returned from his injury, emerged from the darkness with a squad of guerrilla brothers, and approached the blacksmith to report.
Nowadays, various forces are complicated. Blacksmith and others are acting behind enemy lines, so they have to be careful and make sure that there is no danger around them. Only then can they feel at ease.
"The first platoon went up from the left side of the highway, the second platoon from the right, and the third platoon blocked the south side of the highway... We must catch them all!" The blacksmith quickly formulated a strategy.
The guerrilla officers and soldiers of an infantry company quickly dispersed into the darkness and surrounded Zhang Baozi and Liu Heitan who were facing each other from all sides.
Just when Zhang Baozi was talking dry and impatient, suddenly countless guerrilla officers and soldiers wearing uniform gray cotton uniforms and holding 38-type rifles rushed out of the darkness around him.
Yang Ling and his guerrilla brothers in the Northern Jiangsu Corps were self-reliant, so most of the military uniforms produced by their newly built uniform factory were made from captured Japanese and puppet uniforms.
It was dark, and the guerrilla brother was holding a Sanba Daigai in his hand. The shining bayonet was longer than the Chinese bayonet. It was easy to distinguish. At first glance, Zhang Baozi was so frightened that he thought it was a Japanese army.
come over.
"The devil is coming! Run!"
Zhang Baozi saw such a group of soldiers rushing out of the surrounding area silently, shouted, turned around and ran towards the forest.
Those who were in the confrontation also saw the people rushing up from the darkness. They didn't see clearly. When they heard Zhang Baozi shouting, they didn't care about the confrontation. It was important to save their lives, so they ran away one after another.
Although they used the banner of anti-Japanese guerrillas and usually showed off their power, they were deeply afraid of the Japanese. They did not even dare to fight the puppet soldiers, let alone fight the Japanese.
Now the Japs were actually under their noses. Thinking of those Japs who were so murderous, their legs became weak and they ran away.
"Brothers, don't move. It's the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army is coming! We surrender!" Liu Heitan was usually very arrogant and could never defeat the cunning Zhang Baozi and the others.
This time he was unusually smart. When he saw the people who looked like Japs rushing out around him, he knew that there was no way to escape, so he simply refused to do anything and surrendered to the Japs. Maybe he could still survive.
"Taijun, Taijun, ours are good people, they are guerrillas!" Liu Heitan saw the guerrilla officers and soldiers rushing towards him with bayonets in hand. Liu Heitan wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife. While explaining himself, he pointed at Zhang who was running away.
Leopard they shouted.
"Liu Heitan, you are a bitch and you will die!"
Zhang Baozi, who was running for his life, had always been good at calculations. When he heard Liu Heitan's shouting from behind, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood and turned around to curse.
"Bitch traitor!"
When Sun Liang, the leader of the assault reconnaissance platoon, saw Liu Heitan actively asking his men to put down their guns as a sign of goodwill, he raised his foot and kicked Liu Heitan hard.
The burly Liu Heitan was caught off guard and was kicked to the ground, but what made him even more confused was how the other party spoke Chinese.
"Taijun, Taijun, you..." Before Liu Heitan's head turned around, why did the imperial army speak Chinese?
Sun Liang knelt down and grabbed Liu Heitan's collar and pulled him up. He pointed at his armband and said, "Open your eyes wide and take a look. I am from the Guerrilla Corps of Northern Jiangsu, specializing in fighting Japanese and traitors!"
"Ah!" Seeing the opponent's sewn guerrilla armband, Liu Heitan was so shocked that he couldn't bear it. He knew that he was finished. He had just welcomed the imperial army. If this traitor was labeled as a traitor, he would never survive.
"Tie them up and take them back for interrogation!" An angry Sun Liang ordered to the brothers behind him.
Hearing this, Liu Heitan knew that if he was kidnapped, he would have to beat him up. Even if he was not labeled as a traitor, he would be dead for pretending to be a guerrilla.
A fierce look flashed in his eyes, he raised his hand and shot the guerrilla officers and soldiers who were about to kidnap him, and then he rolled and crawled into the darkness beside the road, preparing to escape.
"Catch him!" Sun Liang did not expect that something unexpected would happen. When he saw his brother lying limply on the ground, his eyes immediately turned red.
