under fire

Chapter 875 Sentinel
Captain Geng, who had just returned to the village, moved his mouth away from the kettle, and muttered directly: "...this is a conspiracy!"

Hu Yi, who was sitting opposite him, was obviously out of state: "What do you mean?"

"Secretary Li was killed by a dog traitor a long time ago, and now he has found a scapegoat to lure us into the bait." While Captain Geng was speaking, the political commissar came down from the roof and entered the door. Captain Geng quickly saluted after seeing it: "Well, political commissar!"

Slap. The political commissar heard the conversation between the two outside the door, and slapped the table: "The source of the news is reliable?"

After the salute, Captain Geng waved his fist vigorously: "We caught the tongue of the puppet army, and the news is absolutely reliable!"

The political commissar was stunned for a while after hearing this, and finally sat down weakly on the stool Captain Geng had pulled over, with an old tear streaming down his face from the corner of his eye.

There was a dead silence in the room.

After a long while, the political commissar finally asked Captain Geng again: "How is the situation of the enemy in the town?"

Deputy Captain Geng hurriedly reported: "Almost a battalion of security forces disguised as ordinary people scattered around and set up ambushes. Once we entered, we would immediately be surrounded."

The political commissar looked serious: "Are you sure there is only one battalion?"

"Judging from the information so far, there should only be so many." Captain Geng didn't get the news that there was a team of devils hiding outside the town.

The puppet army has blocked all the roads to the east of the county seat. The intelligence personnel lurking in the county seat and scouting the news did not realize the importance of the devil's intelligence to the east. Then transfer it to the political commissar, it is estimated that the fastest time will be in the afternoon, and the intelligence will have already expired by then!
The political commissar no longer hesitated: "The whole army is dispatched, at any cost! Take down the Bali Battalion... capture the traitor surnamed Wu alive!"

Hu Yi next to him looked at the map and didn't speak.

Captain Geng, on the other hand, was taken aback: "Political Commissar, we don't have heavy weapons. We can't attack at all. Do you want to think about it?"

"Then find a way to pull the enemy out! Don't ask me how to do it." The political commissar turned his head and ordered to Yi next to him: "Boy Hu, you can think of ways yourself, I just want the result!"

The previous plan was to arrange for people to infiltrate into the town, wait for the opportunity to cooperate with outsiders, and focus on saving people!
Now, plans have to change!
More than ten miles west of Baliying, an almost straight road leads directly to the county seat, and several villages are scattered five miles away, faintly visible in the mist.

One mile to the north of the road, a pile of weeds rose slightly above the ground beside the long-dried ditches in the fields.

The secret sentinel sent by Luo Fugui was hiding under the pile of weeds.

The space below was hollowed out to accommodate only one person's activities. From the outside, it looked no different from other messy weed piles nearby.

The haystack was disguised by Anshao with a devil's steel helmet filled with weeds that are common nearby. The haystack is much larger than a human head, and there are slits on the edge of the helmet, which is equivalent to leaving observation holes for all directions.

If it weren't for experienced scouts, they would never have thought that this haystack would be an observation post.

Anshao lay quietly in the pit, he was very careful, with a towel covering his mouth all the time, he had to prevent the hot breath from turning into fog.

The weeds did not move, and the soldiers occasionally turned their heads under their helmets to observe. The sun in the east had risen high, and everything was calm.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Once again, the secret whistle who poked his head under the helmet and turned around to observe suddenly found that something happened in the northern ditch!

Two people with swords on their backs appeared in his field of vision. Without thinking, he could basically tell that those two were people from the Daoist sect.

Staring closely at the two people who appeared suddenly, Anshao pressed down the nose of the machine with the pistol in his hand.

At this time, the distance from the two people who appeared is still far away, and it should be 300 meters away by visual inspection.

Looking across the field, he stared closely at the two gray figures. He was carrying a shuck gun, and it was useless to shoot from such a long distance.

The two men with the big swords on their backs did not walk towards the team station, but moved slowly southward in the ditch.

Almost directly to where he is now!

Come here before dawn, it should be impossible to be discovered!
The sentinels are quite courageous, and they are not afraid of the wandering soldiers of these two sects!I was just surprised in my heart, what are these two going to do when they come to the south now?
300 meters. The two sneaked in the ditch and crawled south, moving very fast
200 meters. You can clearly see the big swords behind the two
100 meters seems to be able to see the faces of the two.
50 meters. Eyebrows are visible
30 meters. You can hear the sound of two people's clothes rubbing against the ditch.
Ten meters away, I can hear two people exhaling.
The two finally moved secretly to the ditch next to them. Their lowered bodies were lower than the ground in the ditch, so that the two crawled under the eyes of Anshao, but Anshao couldn't see them.

As the distance between the two sides got closer, the palms of the hands holding the shell gun were full of sweat.

The enemy should say that he has not found himself!
Even if he was discovered by these two people, he felt that he would be sure to empty the bullet in the gun in the first time, and the matter would not be over if he didn't smash those two into a sieve.
If you can't hit at such a close distance, you will definitely be sent by the squad leader to sweep the hut for a month when you go back!

Fortunately, the two Daomen are not professional scouts, and they don't care about the occasional haystacks that rise above the ground in the fields.
I just kept an eye on those ditches or pits where people might be hiding, and never thought that someone dug a bunker under the grass next to them, and the black muzzle of the gun in their hand was pointing at the top of their heads.

Timetables count seconds!

Until those two climbed over the sentry post in the ditch. The secret sentry under the haystack also endured and did not shoot!
The duty of the sentinel is to discover the enemy's situation and report it to the commander. When the enemy is not approaching the team, just try to find out the enemy's movement as much as possible!

As the two gradually drifted away.

The dark whistle lowered the muzzle of the gun, and carefully pulled out the binoculars that came from the company commander. His vision kept moving, carefully watching the direction the two were heading.

Soon, those two were already close to the road, and on the other side of the road, next to a ditch about two miles away from him, something seemed to be moving?

Hurry up and hold the binoculars motionlessly and look at the target in the distance. After a long while, a light suddenly flashed at the target!

Gone in a flash.
Anshao's heart tightened, and he quickly put down the binoculars, flash?Absolutely!

Can't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Before he came out, he knew the sentry position on the west side, and the Ninth Battalion did not arrange a sentry post on the south side of the road at all!
Putting the sentry five miles away on the plain has almost reached the limit. No matter how far it is, it should be called reconnaissance instead of sentry. Besides, it seems that the squad leader has not heard that he has arranged for people to reconnaissance in the south.

Could it be a rabbit?Dingo?Or a bird knocking over something reflective?
Could it be that the Daomen just happened to arrange a sentry on the south side of the road?

That location is almost two miles away from me!

If this is the case, it means that there must be more enemies within five miles of that person!
Sentinels must make a preliminary judgment on emergencies!
Look carefully at the direction of the two people in the ditch. Could it be that they are... preparing to meet that person!

Could it be that there is a Taoist team in the village to the south?Is this just their outer guard post?

But it doesn't look like it. If the people from the Taoist sect really want to meet up, they can just make a detour from the farther west. Why do they need to sneak around on the ground like this?

Anshao was puzzled: what do they want to do?
No one thought that there really was a secret whistle in the south!
However, the one on duty is a puppet soldier!
The puppet army that came with the devils last night!

The puppet army's dark whistle had already come to the south of the highway to find a low-lying place before dawn, and simply arranged it as a sentry post.

At this time, his face was full of exhaustion, he closed his eyes for a while, and then opened them again to look at the desolate land. There were no pedestrians on the road at all, Anshao yawned, and closed his eyes again to rest his mind!

The light just now was due to the reflection of the sharply polished bayonet when he moved his body!

The two men from the north kept lowering their bodies and moving in the ditch, and the road from east to west happened to be slightly higher than the ground, so that the puppet sentinel on the south side of the road didn't even notice the two men in the ditch.

If it weren't for these two, it would have been impossible for Jiuying Darkshao to find out that there was something wrong with the haystack in the south!

The two of them crawled for a long time in the ditch, and came to the side of the road. They didn't even see a person on the road, let alone Balu, and they couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

The person behind couldn't help complaining: "I didn't even see a ghost, so I think it's better to go back?"

The person lying on the side of the road looking around suddenly lowered his voice: "Don't talk about the haystack in the south!"

"Hey, there is really someone, could it be Balu?"

"This is Fang, who else can there be besides Balu?"

"Then let's touch the ditch and kill him?"

"But... let's go through the ditch, he should be able to see us!"

"It's better if you see it. Are the guns in our hands vegetarian? Then we'll double flank, and I'll see where he goes!"

The two continued to observe for a while, and finally determined that there should be only one person over there.

After muttering a few words, the two immediately separated along the dry drain on the edge of the road.

There is a stone culvert at intervals under the road that is higher than the fields on both sides. The two of them drilled through the culvert silently, and continued to approach the target along the two ditches.
The puppet army who was dozing off did not realize that the danger was approaching
