The War of Resistance

Chapter 1722 Shock

Shang Zhen was ready to stand still and wait for help, but the next development of the situation was much more serious than he imagined.

One after another, soldiers came over and reported that signs of activities of the security division troops were found in the north, south, and west directions.

"It seems they are trying to encircle our camp!" Shang Zhen muttered to himself, and the expressions of the three company commanders who had been summoned to the meeting by him became serious.

"Aren't they afraid of making things worse by doing this? They don't want to be traitors, right?" Cheng Peng guessed.

Is the matter obvious here? If the security division attacked their battalion in a large scale, it would be impossible for their battalion to surrender, and there would be a fierce battle.

But Cheng Peng couldn't see what benefit the security guard would have from doing this.

If the security division really did this, it would be tantamount to completely breaking up with the 113th Division and even the 51st Army.

After all, the security guard started the internal strife. Even if this kind of lawsuit goes to the top, it is unlikely that the security guard will not get any benefits.

So after thinking about it, Cheng Peng could only think that the security guard was going to surrender to the enemy. Is this a way to make a profit before surrendering to the enemy?

Shang Zhen did not express his position on Cheng Peng's speculation. Even if the security guard wanted to be a puppet army, it would be a matter of the future. He had to face the current situation.

After a while, Shang Zhen sneered and said: "If they want to devour us, it depends on whether they have the guts to do it!" Then he said in a louder voice, "Send my order to add security posts at the surrounding commanding heights! Look! Have you reached that hill?"

What Shang Zhen was referring to was a small hill about 60 to 70 meters away from the road on the rear left side. Although the hill was not high, only about 40 to 50 meters high, it was the highest place around.

Gather all the carriages to the road next to the hill, form a defensive formation, and then untie all the horses pulling the carriages. If the security division's men approach, use the carriages as cover to stand still and wait for reinforcements.

Set the warning range to 800 meters, and the security guards will fire warning shots when approaching 800 meters. If they enter 500 meters, they will start shooting!

We must set up a guard post first, and we can't let the security guards see us making any moves. Before we have even finished setting up our formation, they will attack us in a chaotic manner.

The alert squad must send soldiers with the best marksmanship. If they can frighten the security guards for a while, then our reinforcements may arrive.

Okay, you go! "

Shang Zhen's order made the three company commanders tremble in their hearts and said "yes" in unison and went off to act separately.

Qiu Bo and the three of them already understood what Shang Zhen meant.

They couldn't escape from the situation in their camp now. Even if they could escape, they would definitely not be willing to part with the food and ocean they had already obtained. Why would they give so many good things to the security guards?

People die for wealth and birds die for food. At worst, fish will die and the net will be destroyed!

And why did Shang Zhen want to untie all the horses pulling the cart? After untying the horse from the carriage, the carriage shaft was immediately placed on the ground.

Shang Zhen did this because he had no intention of running away at all, or it could be said that he had no intention of breaking out.

And why did they expand their defense circle so much? That's for two reasons.

One, terrain.

Except for the few commanding heights here, there is basically an open area with a clear view of both the enemy and ourselves. No one can hide any big moves from the other party.

Because there was no danger for Shang Zhen and his team to defend, they smashed the carriage to the ground, and then the soldiers used the food on the carriage as a cover to shoot at the security guards. At the same time, the horses were untied to prevent them from getting injured and running around.

On the contrary, as the attacker's security division, there is no terrain to use, so they will definitely take advantage of it!

Two, weapons. Most of the rifles used by Shang Zhen and others were Type 38 rifles, while the guns of the security division were much tattered.

From the effective range of the gun, the Type 3 rifle can completely suppress all kinds of domestically produced no-name rifles with mixed quality.

If you, the security guard, want to snatch this batch of food, you must first bear the consequences of you not being able to hit me, but I being able to hit you!

Just do it. Under Shang Zhen's order, the whole battalion started moving, and Shang Zhen himself went straight to the hill.

When Shang Zhen just ran to the top of the hill, a gunshot sounded from the left side of the hill.

Shang Zhen followed the sound of gunshots and saw the figures of security guards appearing more than a mile away. The position those people had reached now had undoubtedly reached the cordon he had designated previously.

So the guard post of their camp fired a warning shot without hesitation!

"Telescope." Shang Zhen stretched out his hand, and Shen Mugen hurriedly handed over the telescope.

Shang Zhen looked around with the telescope, and then he made a calculation in his mind. Then he gave orders one after another, and his orders were passed on one after another.

In this case, one messenger under his command, Shen Mugen, was not enough. He had a communications squad instead.

Shang Zhen and his battalion came from the west, and the terrain was relatively flat. Neither the enemy nor we had any terrain to rely on, so they had four or five light machine guns set up on their side.

If the men of the security division attacking from the west want to rush over, they must first rush into a fire net. Shang Zhenliang's security division's firepower is not stronger than that of his own battalion.

There are patches of bushes on the south side of the road, although the bushes can serve as cover for the security division's attack.

But after all, it is a bush that has grown for many years, and the bush will restrict the security guards from attacking them.

Everyone can imagine this. When charging forward, the bushes will tug at the attacker's trousers, as if they are stumbling.

So you can shoot in that direction, but you can't attack too fast.

Since there is no big problem in those two directions, the hilltop where Shang Zhen is now is on the north side of the road, and this has become the focus of defense.

As long as the security division occupies this hilltop, it is equivalent to breaking through their defense.

So Shang Zhen also moved, and he ran to the northeast edge of the top of the hill so that he could take care of both the east and north.

"Prepare more rifles for me." Shang Zhen gave another order after arriving.

Who in the entire battalion doesn’t know that the battalion commander has the best marksmanship? This is when Shang Zhen wants to personally use his marksmanship to scare the security guards.

At this time, gunfire sounded all around, but the gunfire was very sporadic. It was the warning sentry from Shang Zhen camp.

Shang Zhen looked around again. After all, the enemy who came out of Guozhuang was the fastest. Now they were only more than 600 meters away from him.

"Qiu Bo, aim your company's machine gun at 500 meters and listen to my order before shooting!"

After giving another order, Shang Zhen took his rifle and aimed it at the enemies coming out of Guozhuang.

After a moment, Shang Zhen decisively pulled the trigger.

His shot was aimed at a dozen meters in front of the security guard.

He only shot based on his own feeling at more than 600 meters, but his marksmanship was indeed not bad.

The officers and soldiers of the security division who were advancing heard a "chirp" and then saw the white gas rising from the impact point in front of them.

That was the result of the hot bullets directly vaporizing the moisture in the ground.

The officers and soldiers of the security division were secretly shocked by Shang Zhen's shooting skills, but Shang Zhen fired a second and third shot one after another.

And even though these three shots were all shot in front of their feet, they were almost the same.

If one shot hits that position blindly, then if the second shot and the third shot can hit the same position, then it means that the marksmanship is like a god!

In this way, the warning meaning of these three shots is already very strong. The implication is undoubtedly that if you continue to move forward, don't blame us for being rude!

The officer in charge of the security division hesitated and ordered his soldiers to move forward.

He also wanted his team to start shooting at the opponent, but he knew the performance of the weapons they used. Nine out of ten shots would miss them, so what's the use?

But despite this officer's new order, the steps of the dozens of soldiers in front became timid and slow.

Anyone who steps forward will be shot. Who do you think is not afraid?

"Move forward! Don't be cowardly. Whoever attacks the Northeastern Army first will be rewarded 100 oceans!" the officer shouted.

Money moves people's hearts. What's more, they also have a supervising team behind them!

Under coercion and inducement, the soldiers moved forward cautiously, holding their rifles and hunching their waists.

But then, the shooting on the opposite side changed again.

Their security guard walked forward for more than 20 meters when they heard a sudden burst of "chug, chug, chug, chug, chug," the sound of short bursts of light machine gun fire.

The sound came suddenly and violently, and when gathered together, it was like a sudden violent surge between heaven and earth!

Everyone in the advancing security division, whether they were officers or soldiers, instinctively fell down amidst the sound of gunfire.

But when they all lay down, they found that they were all safe and sound. When they looked forward again, they saw that dozens of meters ahead were covered in dust from machine gun bullets!

The fine dust directly blocked their way forward, and then the gunshots stopped ringing, and the dust fell again, and in the end it was as if nothing happened.

But at this time, no one was moving forward, and even the officer following at the end remained silent.

They knew that if they dared to move forward, what would greet them would not be the scattered dust, but a deadly barrage!
