Chapter 2067: Torch in the Dark
"Hey, bosses, why are you here again?" In the small shabby house near the city gate tower, this time it was not the old woman who was crying, but the stubborn old man who was almost crying!
He himself couldn't figure out how many times the Japanese puppet troops had come to search his house.

The puppet soldiers had stomped on the ground and climbed onto the roof of the house. No one knew how many tiles on the roof had been broken by them.

"Don't even think about staying in peace until the Eighth Route Army catches you." A puppet soldier snorted.

What could the old man say? He just leaned his body against the wooden wall inside and acted helpless.

But this time the old man didn't notice that it was only puppet soldiers who came, and no Japanese soldiers followed them. Moreover, there were puppet soldiers vigilantly scanning the outside right at the door of his house.

"Okay, stop pretending here." At this time, the puppet soldier who spoke earlier suddenly walked to the old man.

But his next move made the old man's heart suddenly rise to his throat.

Because the puppet soldier suddenly reached out and knocked on the board he was leaning against: "Brother inside, come out, we are Uncle Six's men, we knew you were in there a long time ago."

After he said this, the stubborn old man was already confused.

It turns out that people already know that the anti-Japanese Eighth Route Army soldier is hiding here!
But the puppet soldier hadn't finished speaking yet, and the other person continued talking, and his words were like chatting with friends: "We are in the same group with you, so don't shoot, of course, if you have other guns besides the lost 20-shot gun.

We brought you a set of our clothes, and we are going out of town tonight."

It is just as the saying goes "There is no wall that is impenetrable", not to mention that the old man's house is just a wooden wall, and the only support of this wooden wall is the wall of another household.

But even if the searcher doesn’t know the answer the first time or the second time, he will eventually discover something.

At this moment, in an unknown dark place in the county town, someone was talking.

"No, hiding like this is not a solution. I'd better go look for Ma Er and the others." That was Lao Liu's voice.

"Can we get out of the city by finding them?" This was Qian Chuaner's voice.

"We have to find a way. If the Japanese devils keep searching like this, we will be found by them sooner or later." Lao Liu said.

"Wait a little longer. I think it's quite safe here. If your brothers move, their families will be in trouble." This was Chen Hanwen's voice.

After Chen Hanwen said this, the three of them remained silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Lao Liu spoke again: "This is the third day, right? I have never suffered such a hardship since I was a child!"

"It's the same. I've been a soldier for more than ten years and I've never stood so straight." Qian Chuaner continued.

"Very good." Chen Hanwen suddenly smiled.

"Why is it so good?" the two people asked puzzledly.

"It's not good that I can't even pile it up. " Sun Hanwen said it was good, but his voice was filled with fatigue that could not be concealed.

"This joke is not funny at all, alas." Qian Chuaner sighed.

The reason they did this was that, like Qin Chuan had done before, the three of them also hid inside the wall to avoid being hunted down by the Japanese and puppet troops.

It was just that the family they were hiding in was a wealthy one, and the board walls were bricked, so they were not discovered by the searching enemy.

They had nowhere to hide.

When Da Biaozi started to search the first cellar, some puppet soldiers secretly passed a message to their people.

Of course, the puppet soldiers couldn't find them, but they would pass the message to people they knew Lao Liu knew, and the news would naturally reach the ears of Lao Liu and others.

So the three of them had no choice but to hide in the mechanism of the board wall, otherwise, they might really be blocked in the cellar by Da Biaozi.

Another noisy, chaotic and even bloody day has passed, and as night falls again, the county town tonight is both similar and different from the previous two nights.

Similarly, fires were lit at the city gates and in the streets.

There were more sentries at the city gates, both Japanese and puppet troops, and the streets were constantly patrolled by Japanese and puppet troops with guns. However, the Japanese and puppet troops were tired and did not search the houses again, but they would inevitably do so tomorrow.

"Everyone, be alert. I will lead you on patrol tonight, and you can have a good sleep tomorrow.

"When this storm is over, I'll take you to visit brothels, and I'll pay for it!" Da Biaozi, who had already changed into an officer's uniform, said loudly to his men who had been following him.

With Da Biaozi's promise, the dozen or so puppet soldiers following him became excited.

Birds of a feather flock together. At least in Da Biaozi's opinion, all the subordinates who can follow him now are loyal.

Then he had to expand the puppet army and find ways to send those guys who followed Lao Liu to the front to serve as cannon fodder.

Of course, this is all for later.

Da Biaozi was so active that he led his patrol team to patrol the streets and alleys of the county town. When he got tired, he would find a place to rest for a while and then continue patrolling!
It was almost midnight.

"Everyone, be alert. If anything happens, it will happen in the second half of the night!" Da Biaozi reminded his men again.

He really wasn't stupid, he was just blinded by greed. He didn't know that as midnight approached, his death was approaching.

There was also a fire burning on the west wall of the county town, and under the firelight were several Japanese and puppet soldiers holding rifles.

Although they are collectively called the Japanese and puppet troops, the Japanese and Chinese certainly would not stand together.

At this time, Ma Er from the puppet army glanced at the Japanese soldiers. Seeing that the Japanese soldiers were huddled together to smoke, he took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and gestured. Then, several puppet soldiers tacitly moved behind a battlement.

However, the city wall has two sides of battlements, and they walked to the side facing the county town.

As he was lighting a cigarette, Ma Er whispered, "Da Biaozi is here."

Following Ma Er's gaze, these puppet soldiers saw a group of puppet soldiers with guns coming towards the west gate under the light of a torch.

That's Da Biaozi coming to patrol. He comes here at this time every day these days.

"Let's do what we agreed upon!" Ma Er said, holding the cigarette sideways in his mouth.

So he moved first, turned around and went straight to the fire burning on the city wall. He pretended to look at the fire, reached out and picked up a burning wood.

As he moved, the other puppet soldiers also moved. Of course, the puppet soldiers with him turned around and used their bodies to cover their guns and either pushed the bolts or pulled out the box guns on their bodies.

Just next to a house below the slope leading to the city wall, a puppet soldier suddenly emerged from the darkness, holding two grenades tied together in his hands.

Of course, the Japanese soldiers were not just on the top of the city gate tower. More than 20 Japanese soldiers were resting in this house.

At the same time, on the top of the city gate tower, a man holding a box gun carefully climbed up the ladder to the city gate tower.

After Qian Chuan'er and his men attacked the city, in order to prevent another attack, the Japanese army placed a secret sentry on the city gate tower. There is no doubt that this secret sentry was the best shooter among the Japanese army.

Because the city gate tower is the highest point in the entire county, higher than the city wall.

If a battle breaks out again this time, the Japanese soldier on the city gate tower can use the advantage of the commanding heights to fire at the anti-Japanese fighters that appear.

It’s a pity that the Japanese army knew about the sentry Ma Er.

Ma Er led the puppet soldiers up the slope, but at this moment, Ma Er, who had come over to see what was going on, walked back to the fire and suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed another burning piece of wood and waved it in the air.

He grabbed it so hard that sparks fell and splashed on his hands as he lifted the wood above his head.

But he seemed unaware of it and just shook the wood violently.

Just then the wind blew, and the flame of the burning wood was blown up, like a torch in the darkness, a torch of the Chinese people's unyielding anti-Japanese war!
And at the moment when the torch was shaking, gunshots suddenly rang out, followed by a loud explosion!
