Chapter 23 Evacuation from Zhouzhuang

In the Zhou family courtyard, a large cart was surrounded by several team members and entered the front yard.

The cart was loaded with a few large boxes and covered with rain cloth, and it was obvious that it was a good thing.

"Captain, I've brought all the things you want..." Xiang Feng went to Donghui Town stronghold in person to trade with Zhang Fugui. When he walked into the yard, he was excited to report.

"In addition to the two Czech light machine guns you requested, two thousand light machine gun bullets and one hundred grenades, Zhang Fugui also gave us fifty more grenades."

Zhou Cheng smiled: "It seems that Zhang Fugui has gained a lot of benefits from this transaction, otherwise he would not have been so generous."

After saying that, he walked to the cart, lifted the rain cloth, and skillfully pried open a long wooden box.

A light machine gun protected by wheatgrass appeared inside.

Zhou Cheng's face was happy. There was a very thick gun oil on the gun, which showed that the machine gun was well maintained.

With a look of expectation, I pulled the machine gun out of the box, and after checking it over and over again, I quickly pulled the bolt and pulled the trigger...

The crisp sound of impact came from the barrel of the gun, and Zhou Cheng's smile became stronger: "This light machine gun is at least 70% new, and there are three spare barrels. There is no problem with firing thousands of bullets."

After checking the other light machine gun, supporting bullets and grenades, the order was ordered: "Xiang Feng, except for the guard post, everyone else came to the front yard to gather. I have something to announce."

"Yes, captain..." Xiang Feng ran out of the front yard.

With the sentinels removed, the remaining twenty-four members of the village protection team stood in front of Zhou Cheng, and the two light machine guns he had just obtained were placed next to him, one left and one right.

Most of the team members carried rifles on their bodies, while a small number of team members carried big knives and grenades on their bodies, all of whom looked at Zhou Cheng and the light machine gun on the ground.

Zhou Cheng didn't say nonsense, and looked at everyone talking bluntly, saying, "Comrades, I'll tell you a good news. Our village protection team has added another weapon."

"Did you see these two light machine guns beside me? Their firepower is far greater than that of rifles. When they go to the battlefield, a light machine gun can at least meet ten rifles."

"I decided to use these two light machine guns to form a firepower squad."

"Our village protection team is reorganized into two infantry squads and one firepower squad."

"Xiang Feng serves as the squad leader of the first squad, Li Yifang serves as the squad leader of the second squad, and I personally serve as the squad leader of the firepower squad."

"The infantry squad, including the squad leader, each squad has ten soldiers and is equipped with ten rifles."

"Because there are not enough guns, each infantry squad temporarily has eight guns and two big knives."

"The firepower squad consists of two machine gun teams and one sharpshooter team. Each machine gun team is equipped with a light machine gun and two big knives, with a total of three soldiers. The sharpshooter team has four soldiers, with four rifles..."

"This is how our village protection team will be organized for a long time."

"Now I'll choose a machine gunner: the first condition is to have strong strength and good physical strength..."

"The second condition is that the gun is accurate and the reaction is flexible enough..."

As time passed day by day, the abnormality in the Zhou family compound gradually attracted the attention of some interested people.

It has been almost a month since Zhou Xuhui claimed to be injured and was in a closed door to thank the guests. The Zhou family's guard and servants have never walked out of the Zhou family's courtyard.

And whether it is day or night, there are often shouts of killing in the yard.

When did a bunch of nursing homes become so hard and motivated?

This is completely opposite to their previous style.

Zhou Xuhui was injured and could not move by himself, but the guards and servants in his hands were not affected. According to the principle, he would patrol several villages every few days to prevent anyone from making trouble.

But they didn't do this and stayed in the Zhou family courtyard and stayed in the door.

If something happens, the Japanese will hold them accountable, and the Zhou family will definitely not be able to bear it.

At first I found out that the abnormality was the traitors around me who were working hard for the Japanese like Zhou Xuhui.

They were all tied to the Japanese chariot, sharing honor and disgrace between each other, and their lips were lost and their teeth were cold.

If something happens to one of them, the others will definitely not be alone.

So these traitors began to send people to the Zhou family, staring at Zhouzhuang's every move, hoping to find something strange!

"Captain, there is something wrong..." Xiang Feng, who was alert in Zhouzhuang, hurried into the yard.

"We found several strange faces in the village, and asked Tang Shengbo to take a look at them and make sure they were all servants sent by several traitors around them."

"Hidden in the village, staring at the Zhou family compound, I must have noticed something was wrong and came to monitor us."

"The Zhou family can't stay anymore!" Zhou Cheng stood up from the chair and said with a serious look on his face.

Xiang Feng felt something in Zhou Cheng's words and asked tentatively: "Are we exposed?"

Zhou Cheng shook his head: "Whether there is exposure or not, we must leave here as soon as possible. Only in this way can we take the initiative in the battlefield in the next matchup, rather than being chased and beaten by the Japanese and puppet troops after exposure."

Zhou Cheng fell into deep thought after he finished speaking.

After this month of training, although the training of the village guard team has not ended, everyone has learned to shoot, move the battlefield, crawl forward, throw grenades... several basic tactical actions.

Although he did not have the strength to fight head-on with the Japanese and puppet troops, he at least had the strength to fight back and was no longer passively when facing them.

In this case, the best way to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops is to take the initiative in the battlefield, lead the enemy to the battlefield you have prepared, and to respond to changes in the future and catch them off guard.

"We do this!" Zhou Cheng thought of the combat ideas and orders that had gradually formed his mind.

"A group of prisoners will continue to garrison the Zhou family courtyard. When will it be exposed and when will it retreat? The day before the retreat, the remaining food from the Zhou family can be taken away, and the people who cannot be taken away will be distributed directly to the villagers in the village."

"Second Class 2 and Firepower Class evacuated the Zhou family compound tonight. We went to Jinshan to build a new camp, bringing three trucks of 5,000 kilograms of grain, and bringing some other supplies to ensure that the village protection team can survive in the mountains for three months."

Xiang Feng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why don't you go back to Xiaoling Village?"

Zhou Cheng explained: "Until there is enough strength to protect the villagers, the village protection team will not enter any village. Otherwise, it will not only not be able to protect them, but will also bring them a lot of trouble and increase their risks."
