The War of Resistance

To put it in a more roundabout way, one thousand people fighting against two hundred people should have been a big victory, but it only ended up being a small victory. However, the people who turned a big victory into a small victory thought it was a big victory.

This is the helplessness of the Chinese people in their current anti-Japanese war. They have been poor and weak for a long time. Although it is only a small victory, they can still accumulate confidence and see another possibility.

This is just like the great victory of Guan, which seemed to be nothing compared to the great battles that killed thousands of invaders and later killed thousands or even tens of thousands of invaders.

When the members of the independent brigade evacuated the battlefield and were talking about their unprecedented glorious achievements, Shang Zhen and his company of new recruits were marching quickly through the mountains.

"Can this road really lead to the stronghold you mentioned?" Shang Zhen asked Qian Feng while walking hurriedly.

"Of course we can!" Qian Feng answered, but then he asked worriedly, "There is a gun tower over there, how can we take it down?"

"Let's talk about it when we get there. There is always a way." Shang Zhen replied.

So the two of them and the company of new recruits continued to travel through the mountains and fields.

More than an hour later, Shang Zhen and his men hid in a woods and looked at the artillery tower on a hill across the road.

The base of the turret was made of concrete and the top was made of stone. It did not look impressive, but the location where the turret was located was very important. The terrain on both sides of the road was low-lying, and within a radius of nearly a thousand meters there was only the woods where the recruit company was located and the hill with the bunker.

At least in this area, this bunker guarded by the puppet army can be called a strategic location.

Fortunately, Qian Feng was familiar with the terrain here, and he led the company of new recruits to take a detour to avoid the sight of the puppet army sentry on the artillery tower and reached the woods.

Now Shang Zhen’s idea is to take down the artillery tower guarded by the puppet army, and then their people will ambush there and launch another attack on the Japanese army that will return soon.

Shang Zhen is not a fat brigade commander. He does not have the idea of ​​"stopping after a brief fight" when fighting the Japanese. He always uses a combination of punches to fight the Japanese, whether it is to kill them when they are sick or to beat them when they are down, it's all the same!

"Look at that thing, it looks like a turtle shell, how can we take it down?" Qian Feng was worried and looked at Shang Zhen.

Although he admired Shang Zhen very much during the time they fought side by side, he really had no idea about taking over this artillery tower.

Let’s not mention the Central Army, nor some powerful miscellaneous troops. After all, they have cannons, and mortars are still cannons.

However, it cannot be said that the Chinese army is without artillery other than the two mentioned above, but those artillery pieces are also very few.

So one can imagine how difficult it would be to take down a turret that looked like a turtle shell as Qian Feng said.

That’s why there’s a classic line in a certain anti-Japanese war drama: “Second Battalion Commander, bring me my Italian cannon!”

As long as we have a cannon, we can blow the lid off that bastard's shell with one shot!

But without a cannon, it would be difficult to shoot that bastard!

"Either there is someone on the inside, or they use wits." Shang Zhen's answer did not surprise Qian Feng.

"Don't look at me, there's no one inside!" Qian Feng said hurriedly.

He did pass by here twice when he was doing work for the fat brigade commander, but that was just passing by.

He did know quite a few puppet soldiers, but none of them were on this artillery tower.

Besides, even if he had acquaintances in the artillery tower, he couldn't let the puppet army act as an accomplice!

If the fat brigade commander knew that he really did that, he would definitely skin him alive!

Because doing so would implicate Commander Wang, and that would destroy the tacit understanding between the Independent Brigade and the Wang Puppet Army!

Shang Zhen smiled, as if he had anticipated Qian Feng's answer, and said, "Then let's use our wits to defeat him!" He turned and looked at the soldiers behind him.

The successive victories have boosted the morale of these new recruits. When they saw the company commander turned around and looked back at Shang Zhen, they were naturally greeted with eager glances.

"You, you, you, and you." Shang Zhen suddenly stretched out his finger and pointed at people, "Do you four dare to pretend to be Japanese devils? And then go and knock on the door of the artillery tower?" Shang Zhen said something strange.

"Ah?" Two of the soldiers who were named were stunned, but the other two answered without hesitation, "Dare!"

"Then, what if those Japanese devils don't open the door for us?" a soldier asked after hesitating for a while.

"You are the mighty Imperial Japanese Army, they dare not refuse to open the gates." Shang Zhen replied.

"What if they talk to us?" another soldier asked.

"Ask the Imperial Japanese Army what they want to do?" Shang Zhen suddenly sneered, "There is nothing that can't be solved by a big-eared hammer!"

Shang Zhen's answer stunned the soldiers again.

But after a moment, a soldier answered loudly: "Report to the company commander, I dare to go!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

As soon as he finished speaking, another soldier responded in the same way: "I dare to go too!"

After the two of them said this, the other two, although still a little worried, also said: "At worst, we'll die, and we'll go too!"

Shang Zhen smiled, but he pointed at the four soldiers one by one and said, "Xing Lei, Li Shunyi, Gao Erwa, Ding Zhaocai."

When they heard Shang Zhen call out all four of his names, the four soldiers, including the two who had hesitated before, became excited.

There are more than one hundred recruits in Shang Zhen’s company, but Shang Zhen can remember the names of four of them. This in itself shows that Shang Zhen values ​​them. The company commander actually knows me!

And this is the difference between Shang Zhen’s leadership and that of the independent brigade.

People are kind-hearted, and the soldiers are not stupid. If they were in other combat units of the independent brigade, at most their names would be on the roster, but it is unknown whether they would be on the roster at all.

If they die fighting in an independent brigade, they are just cannon fodder. To their superiors, their lives are like the lives of untouchables, not lives at all!

It would be better to bury it under a plum tree and let it become fertilizer. If it grows big plums and is eaten by people, you will be criticized!

But Shang Zhen is really different from other leaders. He trains first and fights first, and even remembers their names after the battle. Where can you find such a leader? I would even die for him!

Look, the Chinese people are so kind. When they are humiliated by those in power, they will repay the kindness with their lives!

The two thieves in "Chicken Stealing and Dog Stealing" and Jing Ke in "The Emperor and the Assassin" actually came into being this way, because they received courtesy from those in power!

The matter was settled. When the four soldiers began to change into Japanese military uniforms, Qian Feng realized that Shang Zhen had planned this in advance, otherwise how could he have carried with him those Japanese military uniforms seized last time.

But he didn't know that it was a tradition for Shang Zhen to lead people to pretend to be Japanese devils. In Qian Feng's eyes, Shang Zhen's behavior was very risky, but Shang Zhen and his group of old people had done this more than once or twice.
