After delaying for a while in Dashanzhuang, Shen Han led the military special agents to evacuate from the tunnel before the Japanese tried their best.
However, it is not easy to retreat quickly and get rid of the entanglement of Japanese soldiers.
Because the length of the tunnel was relatively short and the location of the tunnel entrance was relatively close to the encirclement of Japanese soldiers, Shen Han and his party were in great trouble.
Shen Han, who carefully led the military command agents and slowly evacuated to the southwest, was still hoping that Huang Shijie and the people from the independent detachment would arrive quickly.
Because Shen Han knew that if they wanted to get rid of the Japanese completely, they would definitely have to use force. Now they were cautious and could only delay for some time and put some distance between them.
It's not that Shen Han is not confident, but it's not dark now, and the Japanese pursuers are also chasing along the tunnel, and they will be spotted soon.
But what Shen Han didn't expect was that they were discovered by Japanese soldiers not far from the tunnel entrance.
This group of Japanese soldiers, consisting of only a dozen people, was a combat team sent by Yasuken Kawasaki. They had been searching around for suspicious targets.
"it's here!"
After discovering Shen Han and others, the Japanese sergeant immediately shouted and ordered the Japanese soldiers to chase them.
While chasing, the Japanese soldiers naturally kept firing, and the location of the tunnel entrance was quickly noticed by Kawasaki Yasuki.
This situation surprised Shen Han, because he did not expect that he would be discovered by Japanese soldiers just not far from the tunnel.
Moreover, there was still a feeling of regret in Shen Han's heart, because if he could have guessed that he would be discovered so quickly, he would definitely throw a few grenades down the tunnel.
Now not only has the goal of leaving quietly not been achieved, but the Japanese pursuers in the tunnel have also been able to catch up with them very smoothly.
"Fight and retreat at the same time!"
At this point, there is no use regretting it. Shen Han is a calm person and naturally knows what to do, so he issued this order.
Military agents were not fools. When they were discovered by the Japanese, they would fire back as soon as possible.
The distance between the two sides was 100 meters, so the exchange of fire would put the military commander at a great disadvantage.
Because the distance of 100 meters is all open area, the pistols of the military commanders are naturally unable to defeat the rifles of the Japanese soldiers.
As soon as the two sides exchanged fire, Kawasaki Yasushi, who was outside the village, heard a large number of gunshots from the southwest, and immediately gave an order: "Take half of the troops and go to reinforce, and the rest continue to surround the village."
Yasuken Kawasaki was no fool. The reason why he issued this order was because he was worried that something might slip through the net, so he sent half of his men to chase him.
After all, in the eyes of this Japanese army major, the combat effectiveness of Chinese agents was very poor, and their fighting ability with open swords and guns was simply not comparable to that of the Japanese army.
"Hi!"
The Japanese squad leader immediately nodded in agreement, and then led thirty or forty people to the southwest for support.
As for Kawasaki Yasuki, a Japanese major, because he was greedy for life and feared death, he did not go to the front line. Instead, he stayed in place to command and interrogate the ordinary villagers he captured.
On the other side, Shen Han led the military special agents to fight and retreat, but the situation became worse and worse.
Because the Japanese soldiers in the tunnel came out quickly, and when the two groups of Japanese soldiers came together, they began to suppress the military commanders and fight.
Originally, the military agents were at a disadvantage in terms of weapons, but now they did not have an advantage in numbers, so they were naturally at a disadvantage.
Suddenly, they were suppressed so hard by the Japanese soldiers that the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
When the distance between the two sides was only seventy or eighty meters, Shen Han saw dozens more Japanese soldiers appearing behind the pursuing soldiers.
These dozens of Japanese soldiers were chasing very quickly, and they were divided into three groups and surrounded in a fan shape.
It is estimated that if this continues, within ten minutes, the military command agents will be completely surrounded.
"Leave a few people behind and break up with me, while the rest retreat quickly!"
The current situation was too dangerous, so Shen Han issued this order and planned to survive by cutting off his arm.
After all, the Japanese soldiers are surrounding us, and I'm afraid no one from the military command can leave.
As for alternating cover and retreat, it is also impossible. After all, the military commander's firepower is insufficient and the numbers are at a disadvantage.
The most important thing is that this is an open area, more than 100 meters away from the small woods with many shelters.
"Team Leader Shen, I'll stay behind for a while, and you can lead the people to retreat!"
Immediately, a military reunification agent made a request for a break. After all, there were many good men among the military reunification agents, so naturally they were not afraid of death.
"Be careful, I'll meet you in the woods. I'll just block you for a few minutes and then I'll retreat immediately!"
There was no need to fight for it at this time, so Shen Han told him that if he retreated to the woods, his side would have a glimmer of hope.
What's more, although Huang Shijie's independent detachment has not arrived yet, Shen Han estimates that the time will be soon.
"good!"
The person who spoke was not an idiot, and naturally knew what to do, but the last few minutes were also the most dangerous, and he didn't hold out much hope.
Because everyone can see the purpose of the Japanese soldiers, which is to encircle them and defeat them all.
In this way, after five or six agents were left behind by Juntong, the rest quickened their pace and retreated towards the woods more than a hundred meters away.
The Japanese soldiers who were chasing the military agents discovered this immediately, especially the Japanese team leader, who had already guessed that Shen Han and others were going to retreat towards the woods.
"Speed up, we must keep them out of the woods!"
The Japanese squad leader's military rank was not high, and his ability to command battles was not bad. Naturally, he knew that the military commander's running into the woods would cause trouble for the arrest.
Especially as the sky gets darker and darker, if the person cannot be caught before dark, the outcome may be uncertain.
Under the command of the squad leader, several Japanese soldiers on the side sped up and ran towards the woods.
But the Japanese were farther away, and because they were going in a detour, they couldn't match the speed of Shen Han and others.
"Bagaya Road, grenade squad, fire towards the front of the woods!"
The squad leader immediately issued this order,
The tone was very vicious. After all, he couldn't just watch as Shen Han and others ran into the woods.
"Sir, if we fire, we won't be able to catch many alive!"
Immediately, a Japanese soldier reminded the squad leader, with a hint of caution in his tone.
In fact, Shen Han and others were able to resist for such a long time without injuring a few people, which was also the reason why the Japanese army showed mercy.
After all, Kawasaki wanted to capture a few more people alive and then pry open their mouths to achieve more results.
So the squad leader felt a little bit pressured and ordered the Japanese soldiers not to make a fatal blow during the battle.
Otherwise, depending on the combat effectiveness of the Japanese soldiers and the fighting with open swords and guns, the military commander's agents would have been finished long ago.
"Baga, I know, fire!"
The team leader naturally knew the result, but he also knew that it would be very troublesome if Shen Han and others were allowed to run into the woods.
After all, it was easy for the military commander's agents to escape when there was a cover, so instead of running away with a few people, the team leader decided to open fire, because it was better to capture a few less alive than to run away.
Following the squad leader's order, the Japanese grenade squad immediately opened fire at the front of the grove.
Several "rumbling" explosions sounded, and a cloud of smoke and dust appeared in front of the woods. Shen Han and others who were running towards the woods suddenly fell into danger and fell into a dilemma...
