In 1943, the expeditionary force retreated to India to rest, but found the local guide Mang Kun trembling and fearful eyes.
"Munchon, what's wrong with you?" Fang Siguan said to Mang Kun with a submachine gun.
Mangkun turned his head to look in the direction behind them, shook his head, and said, "When I woke up this morning, I felt very bad, like I was in the jungle before, and I was stared at by a beast!" It always feels like someone is staring at us behind us and is catching up with us! ”
After Fang Siguan listened, he was reminded by Mang Kun, and suddenly he also had a little such feeling, his sixth sense was very spiritual, he had full confidence, after these months of action, he had already confirmed this, but today he was only busy with the rush, a little ignored this feeling.
Now listening to Mang Kun, he also suddenly had this feeling, Mang Kun grew up in the jungle, often for the danger of approaching, has a superior keen sense of foreboding, this is sometimes not a sixth sense, but a kind of their instinct, from a lot of natural clues, can find something that seems very ordinary, but in essence is unusual.
"What did you find?" Fang Siguan looked back in the direction behind him and asked Mang Kun.
Mangkun frowned, staring in the direction behind, here is a mountainside, you can see through the top of the dense forest, see the upper part of the jungle far away, Mangkun looked at it for a while, and then said: "Do you see those birds in the sky?"
When we came over, the birds flew up, but we had been here for so long, and the birds still wouldn't fall!
When we used to catch in the woods, when we looked at these birds, we sometimes knew where there would be deer or wild boars! These birds are our friends! They will tell us where there is something and where there is danger! ”
Fang Siguan also noticed these birds, and it was true that some birds were circling in the distant sky, but they refused to fall into the forest, and in their direction, some birds were flying from the forest.
So he immediately changed his face slightly, and said, "We are being watched by devils!" This time the visitor is not good! Among the devils are guys who are good at tracking in the jungle! There are still a lot of them, and I am afraid that there are more than a hundred people! ”
After the other brethren who were on the way heard this, they all stopped and looked back, but they couldn't see why, but they all believed Fang Siguan's judgment, and they didn't expect that there would be ghosts staring at them so soon, and they could catch up in the jungle.
Fang Siguan took out two mk2 grenades, this thing is not less powerful than the devil's ninety-seven grenades, it belongs to the defensive grenade, the cast iron shell is reserved for prefabricated engravings, originally it should be loaded with tnt, but because the United States is not prepared for the coming of the war, when Pearl Harbor was attacked, it was hastily dragged into the war, announced that it joined the ranks of the Allies, and began to declare war on Japan and Germany, and the domestic production of tnt explosives in the early stage of the war could not meet the needs.
Therefore, in order to save the amount of tnt explosives used temporarily, they filled the grenade with nitrified starch, and the explosive power of nitrified starch is also quite impressive, this thing has an explosion killing radius of five to ten meters, but the fragments can still be lethal at fifty meters away.
So Fang Siguan liked this thing very much, and it was the most suitable for arranging booby traps at present, so after observing the surrounding environment, he climbed up the tree like a monkey, hung two grenades on the tree, and then led down a rope and arranged a trigger device underneath.
This time he did not have trouble, the trigger device was very delicate, the rope that pulled the safety plug was hung on a branch, but under the branch, there was a very thin steel wire.
Whoever touches this wire will immediately bounce off the branch, and the branch will drive the rope and trigger the two grenades on the tree.
And this trigger device is an indispensable device, even if anyone finds this trigger device, if they want to eliminate it, they will pull the branches, and they will still trigger the two grenades hanging on the tree.
And after the grenade is triggered, it will not fall to the ground when the safety grip is opened, but will explode directly in the tree, and the ghosts passing below will be happy.
This method of arrangement of booby traps looks more troublesome, but the effect is far more than the ordinary booby traps arranged with tripwires, and more importantly, it is not excluded, whether it is touching a tightrope or touching a branch, it will definitely trigger two grenades on the tree, under normal circumstances, Fang Siguan will not bother to use this means.
Now that the devils behind them have already caught up with the smell, and there are also jungle tracking masters among them, today he will fight with this group of devils and see what they are saying.
After laying out this mine, Fang Siguan immediately led the crowd and changed direction, no longer heading in the direction of The Mangkun tribe, but turning south towards another valley.
Meng Kun also told Fang Siguan that he had taken the wrong path, but Fang Siguan shook his head and said, "I didn't go wrong!" If we continue to return to your tribe, we will bring disaster to your tribe, and we can leave, but your tribe will be retaliated against by the Japanese in the future! So we have to lure these devils away! ”
The group quickly entered this valley, and Fang Siguan deliberately left some scattered footprints, but eventually led the traces to this valley.
Mang Kun stood in the forest, looking at Fang Siguan and their group, and suddenly a strong impulse arose in his heart, and he gritted his teeth and chased after them.
Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian had a hard heart last night, leading a squadron of Japanese troops, flashlighting along this mountain path, chasing wildly for half a night before stopping to rest, and at the beginning of their entry into the jungle, they encountered some traps left by Fang Siguan in the jungle.
However, when he entered the depths of the jungle, he did not encounter any more traps, so Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian boldly adopted the night march to continue the pursuit, trying to drive back the time.
Shortly after dawn, they chased after Fang Siguan where they had camped last night, and although Fang Siguan habitually dealt with the camp, Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian, as a master of jungle warfare, still found the camp, and found the campfire and some unburied excrement that Fang Siguan had buried before leaving.
Through the residual temperature of the buried bonfire, Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian judged that Fang Siguan and his gang had not been away for long, so they immediately continued to pursue them.
When they reached the fork where the two valleys met, a Japanese soldier who was walking in the front continued to habitually probe the trap in front of him with a wooden stick, and when he swept under a small tree, he touched a steel wire, and then a branch that was bent down was bounced up, and a rope was immediately brought out from the side of the trunk.
Lieutenant Inohara only heard two familiar sounds, and immediately judged that this was the sound of the grenade pulling ring being pulled off and the safety grip being bounced off, so he was shocked in his heart and immediately shouted: "Lie down!" There are booby traps! ”
The Japanese troops who had already walked under the tree heard the warning sound of Lieutenant Inohara Kaneki, so they quickly fell to the ground and lay on the ground and hugged their heads.
However, when Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian was lying down, he found that a safety grip of a grenade had fallen from the tree, which immediately frightened Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian's soul and scattered, and he realized that the booby trap encountered this time was not on the ground, but on the tree.
So Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian instinctively rolled on the spot, and before he could even warn the soldiers around him, he rolled first behind the trunk of another tree, using the trunk to cover his figure.
Only then did he shout loudly, telling the soldiers who were lying on the ground to quickly get up and flee to find cover, but the five-second delay had arrived.
Only to hear two booms, sounding above the trees, and suddenly the shrapnel that flew out of the air like rain scattered from the air to the ground.
The Japanese troops who were lying under the trees had not yet had time to figure out what was going on, but they were very unlucky, and if they were standing, they might be better, after all, the explosion was above their heads, the shrapnel flew down from top to bottom, they were wearing steel helmets on their heads, and the bullet surface would be much smaller.
However, they chose to lie down, and this time their whole bodies were just within the range of the explosion, and dozens of pieces of flying shrapnel fell from the sky and directly nailed into their bodies from their backs.
Suddenly there was a scream under the tree, a total of seven Japanese soldiers were hit by shrapnel, almost all of them were injured by shrapnel on their backs or thighs, although they did not die on the spot, but one by one lying on the ground in pain was screaming, and some people were still rolling on the ground, making a mess.
Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian broke out in a cold sweat, if he hadn't seen the safety grip that had fallen from the tree just now, he would have been lying on the ground at this moment, and he had already been hit.
The last time he was injured, he was injured by an empty grenade thrown by the enemy, he was hit by several pieces of shrapnel on his leg, which almost killed him, and now there is a piece of shrapnel left on his back, because it is too dangerous to take out, and the long road is long, and his back hurts badly.
Yesterday, after he left Binbao, he rushed all the way here, and his back had begun to hurt, but he still endured the pain and continued to pursue.
Unexpectedly, taking advantage of their relaxation work, the enemy actually left another shady booby trap here, and unlike before, he actually set the booby trap on the top of the tree, which became an empty bomb, and lying on the ground became the best target.
The enemy who arranged this booby trap is obviously a guy who is very proficient in human psychological activities, and the booby trap set up just takes advantage of the habit that they will find that after triggering the booby trap, they will immediately lie on the ground, and as a result, today they have been hit again.
Lieutenant Inohara Jumped Out of the Tree with a palpitation and commanded the soldiers to rescue the wounded, but after examination, it was sadly found that five of the seven wounded were seriously injured, and the other two were injured in the thigh and shoulder blades, which were not fatal on the spot, and the remaining five seriously injured people who were shot in the back were all not saved.
Lieutenant Inohara's body was slightly trembling, and the back of his hand grasping the handle of the command knife burst out of the old green tendon, he didn't know why the enemy suddenly arranged a booby trap here, was it because the enemy had already discovered their tracking?
Lieutenant Inohara Hanjian was a little puzzled, he thought that this possibility was very small, the enemy was now twenty kilometers deep into the jungle, there was no reason to find their tracking, but why did the enemy arrange such a tricky booby trap here?
Lieutenant Inohara Washizu was vaguely uneasy, and while ordering the treatment of the wounded, he immediately went to the front to check the search himself, and it was not long before he found a messy footprint and headed towards a valley.
Lieutenant Inohara Immediately ordered two Medic Japanese Standard Squadrons, with four Medics, to be left behind to take care of the wounded or to temporarily bury the fallen soldiers, while the rest of the men continued to follow him down the valley.
Fang Siguan listened to the roar of the two explosions coming from behind him, and a bad smile appeared on his face again, and now he was completely sure that a group of ghosts had caught up behind them, and this booby trap was a prop used to test these ghosts, and now he had received a satisfactory answer.
So Fang Siguan smiled at Liu Baotian and said, "Baotian, take out the grenade we prepared before!" ”
"Good!" Liu Baotian agreed, unloaded the backpack, took out an mk2 grenade from the small bag on the side of the backpack and handed it to Fang Siguan.
After Fang Siguan took over, he casually used this grenade to lay out a booby trap on the path, but people who had seen Fang Siguan Bray found that fang Siguan's tripping mine arranged this time was very careless, and the rope went directly through the path, as long as you were a little careful, you would find this rope.
Fang Siguan did not explain much, after arranging this booby trap, he immediately continued to lead the crowd forward, and began to lay out various traps along the way.
In laying traps, Mang Kun finally showed his talent, as a local who grew up in the jungle and lived by catching, they knew better than Fang Siguan how to lay traps that were not easy to be found, and they would use the ready-made things in the jungle more than Fang Siguan, and they could lay out a very inconspicuous but effective trap at a very fast speed, which can be called an upgraded version of the trap.
Fang Siguan was full of praise for these traps laid by Mang Kun, and he also stole some new tricks by the way, which made him very satisfied.
The devils kept being recruited, the casualties were more and more, before they saw where the expeditionary force was, it was dark, and now, the devils no longer dared to pursue, who knew that Fang Siguan did not camp at night, but continued to march, and when it was dawn, the expeditionary force had completely disappeared, and when the devils re-found the traces left by the expeditionary force, the expeditionary force had already entered India.
Hats off to the heroes!
