under fire

Chapter 820
The sudden and dense gunfire behind the fire in the bandit camp in the east of the village shook the night.

Immediately aroused the attention of everyone inside and outside the village.

The bandit soldiers who shrank in the open field in the north of the village, using the ditches and ridges as cover, looked eastward in the darkness.

The burning fire on the eastern position hardly changed, only occasionally a screaming black shadow appeared in the bright light of the fire, and then fell directly to the ground.
The heart of Sidang's family sank, and after years of wandering in the rivers and lakes, he immediately understood that something must have happened to Lao Qi who was in charge of the east!

Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at the team coming from the north. Just now the spies said that reinforcements from the security regiment came from the north!

First, there was an attack on the small headquarters in the south, and then there was a gun battle at Lao Qi's place in the east. He was not stupid, and immediately realized that there was a problem in between.

Could there be someone in the east pretending to be a reinforcement?Or because this is not Huang County!Could it be that the security team of Pu County deliberately played dirty tricks to cheat?

"Fourth brother, look, why is it so lively at the Seven Heads of the East? Fourth brother...fourth brother..." the first subordinate asked a little uneasy.

The gunshots in the east gradually became thinner, and the battle might be coming to an end?The pensive fourth child came back to his senses with a jolt, no, the seventh child was probably cheated by someone!

At this time, he didn't even think about going to the rescue, and now he has to protect himself first!Immediately ordered: "Everyone is ready to fight, let me point the machine gun at the team in the north, and let me watch carefully, keep an eye on it, and immediately let all the brothers who are approaching in front retreat back, and then retreat to the commander in the west. .”

The two light machine guns in charge of suppressing fire among the bandits turned their muzzles, and twenty or thirty guns were spread out, all pointing at the team approaching with torches in the open area to the north.

The position of the Sidangjia is close to the north, and you can see more details of the team coming from the north. As the torches approach, the field of vision gradually becomes clearer. Finally, it seems that the team that came is No. 30. It is not clear how many people are behind. And the team is less than 300 meters away from him at this time, and is approaching him quickly.
If the people from the security team really came from Pu County, how could they still maintain such a fast speed?

Something unusual.

A faint flash of light in the distance flashed quickly in the eyes of the fourth child, and then disappeared.

Sidang's heart sank, he guessed that someone was watching him with a telescope!
A dark figure, as the range illuminated by the torch moved towards him quickly, became more and more obvious.

It's a common thing for bandits to eat gangsters, even if it's really the Pu County Security Corps who came, they have to be put down here first!
Sidang's family was about to give the order to start the fight, when a bandit trotted up to him: "Go back to Sidang's house, the brothers who entered the south have all retreated!"

The Sidang family looked at the crowd of brothers behind him, hesitated for a moment, preserving strength is the foundation of the foothold!

It's just a legend!
Can a person who knows the situation is not good and still runs away be called a bandit?

The fourth leader popped out a word between his teeth: "Retreat!"

In the darkness that was a hundred meters away from the north of the village, there was a blurry figure lying on the ground. The group of people who were planning to attack the north, the bandit soldiers who were caught off guard, got the order of the fourth master, and immediately got up from the ground in a panic, holding The wounded soldier carried the corpses of the brothers who had died before, let go of his feet, and ran straight to the west!
As the torches lit by the northern team emitted balls of light, and continued to approach, the open area in the north of the village suddenly became much brighter.

boom.
A muffled gunshot sounded in the village, and a soldier holding a torch was hit by the flying bullets and immediately fell to the ground.

"Hurry up and throw down the torch!" Ma Liang, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was startled, and immediately understood what was going on!At this time, the distance from the village is only more than a hundred meters, and the enemy is indistinguishable from the enemy with a torch in the dark!

So why not directly become the target of the Eighth Route Army in the village?
Careless!Ma Liang blamed himself a little. How wronged was he to be hit by his own people?
The soldier next to him was scrambling to bandage the arm of the soldier who had been shot!
Fortunately, he was only shot in the arm, so he couldn't die. As for whether the bone was injured, I don't know yet. If the bone was really injured, that arm might have to be disabled.

Ma Liang frowned. As a commander, a soldier was accidentally injured by his own people on the battlefield. He felt that he should bear this responsibility!
This is also a lesson. On this kind of battlefield where the enemy cannot be identified, one must be vigilant at all times, and one should not stand on the enemy's position in the dark and make low-level mistakes such as lighting a torch as a target.

This is the battlefield!Be careful with everything!
The soldier in charge of reconnaissance ran up to Ma Liang: "Report, all the bandits here have run westward, and there is not even a single corpse left behind!"

Ma Liang came back to his senses: "Let's go, we have to contact Li Huanzhang who is guarding the village immediately!"

the village.

Seeing that all the torches in the open field to the north were extinguished, a soldier leaned his gun against the wall and said to his comrades beside him, "Is it true that those bastards really treat me like me?"

"Pay attention to concealment!" The squad leader on the wall next to him turned his head to remind the soldier who shot the "enemy" Huoba in the north just now.

The squad leader was a little surprised, only then did a group of enemies run west from the darkness.

Earlier, as long as the village opened fire, it would immediately attract bullets from the bandits to retaliate, but this time when the enemy's torches were destroyed, the "enemies" in the north did not fire a single shot!
Earlier, there was a fierce fight in the east of the village, and the militia commander Zhou was in charge. He wanted to worry about it, but he was powerless.

The squad leader began to think hard about how to deal with the enemy's attack.

In an instant, a voice came from the darkness in the north: "Comrades in the village don't shoot, we are the Ninth Battalion of the Independent Regiment!"

The voice reached the ears of the soldiers at the entrance of the village, and the squad leader was taken aback for a moment, the Ninth Battalion of the Independent Regiment?
This guy actually said he was the Ninth Battalion of the Independent Regiment!

The reinforcements from the Independence Regiment were more than sixty miles away. The comrades in arms went to ask for help, and they came back and forth. Can he get there in five hours?

Hmph, these bandits want to pretend to be an independent regiment!

Do you really think I am a fool?
"Then come here, let me see what your independent group looks like!"

Another voice came from the darkness: "Hurry up and call Li Huanzhang, Qin Damao, the leader of your first squad, and Sai Kongming, the leader of your second squad."

Hearing the person in the dark mentioned the platoon leader and his own name, the squad leader was overjoyed, this is definitely one of his own!Although he deliberately referred to Qin Dahu, the squad leader, as Qin Damao!It's also his own nickname.
No more hesitation: "Hehe, I am Sai Kongming, you are really an independent group? Quickly light the torch and let me see who is running so fast. By the way, what is your name?"

Ma Liang asked the soldiers next to him to light a torch and stood up from the darkness: "I am Ma Liang, hurry up and call Li Huanzhang, those bandits here just ran to the west!"

Sai Kongming looked at Ma Liang's figure in the distance, although he was pleasantly surprised, he was still vigilant: "Come closer so I can see clearly!"

Ma Liang reached out to take the torch from the soldiers, took a squad of soldiers, and rushed straight to the village.

Sai Kongming was lying on the wall, unable to restrain the ecstasy in his heart: "It's really Company Commander Ma! You guys are here!"

After speaking, he immediately ordered to the soldiers next to him: "Hurry up and notify the platoon leader, and say that the independent regiment reinforcements have arrived!"

The soldier jumped off the wall and ran out of the yard like flying. Sai Kongming hurriedly turned his head again and asked, "Company Commander Ma, the movement in the east just now was caused by you, right?"

Ma Liang only led a dozen people into the village, and it didn't make much sense for all of them to enter the village now. He had to figure out the current situation in the village, put the troops outside the village, and prevent those bandits from making small moves.

Moreover, why those bandits in the north of the village ran away before he came, I still haven't figured it out yet.

Thanks for the reward from Brother Jirufeng while fleeing
