The little dog Shiro was carrying the 38-meter cap and was searching forward extremely nervously.
Inu Shiro is from Kumamoto and is a reservist. The so-called reservists refer to paramilitary personnel who have reached the age of service but have not been recruited to serve in the field division. Although reservists do not need to serve in the army, they must accept Military training is no different from active duty soldiers.
This strategy of raising troops is also related to Japan's national strength.
Because Japan's national power is limited, it must concentrate resources as much as possible to develop its navy, so the resources left for the army are extremely limited. In order to save money and update weapons and equipment, the army must raise as few troops as possible and spend as little military pay as possible. Except for the seventeen permanent divisions of the Japanese army, the others are basically shelf divisions.
The so-called shelf division has a complete organizational structure, but insufficient soldiers.
The shelf division can save money, but in wartime, the shelf division is useless.
Therefore, the Japanese Army Headquarters came up with a clever idea to shorten the service period of the conscripts and train as much as possible.
In this way, when the war begins, we only need to recruit a large number of reservists who are no longer on the payroll or retired soldiers who are in the countryside, and then add these reservists and soldiers in the countryside to the shelf divisions. In the blink of an eye, these shelf divisions will become The Chengman division and the Iijima division were replenished after the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, and their combat effectiveness is not much worse than the permanent division.
Although Inu Shiro is a reserve soldier, his fighting spirit is no worse than that of any active soldier.
However, at this time, Inu Shiro clearly felt that his upper and lower teeth were constantly fighting.
Inu Shiro was extremely nervous at the moment, more nervous than any of his comrades walking beside him.
Things have to start three hours ago. Three hours ago, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng attacked a Japs search team, killed ten Japs and let four go. One of the Japs was Shiro Inu. After luckily rescuing a life from Xu Rui, the puppy Shiro suffered from a severe phobia.
Xiao Inu Shiro, like all the little devils, has been brainwashed by militaristic ideas, but this does not mean that he will no longer feel fear. When he encounters a strong soldier like Xu Rui who has exceeded the limit of his imagination, Xiao Inu Shiro Shiro still feels fear instinctively, and it has nothing to do with whether he is afraid of death or not.
This is a fear that comes from the depths of the soul and from the level of faith.
Yes, the appearance of Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng made Inu Shiro shake his belief that he had always believed in. He suddenly felt that Japan could not win this war.
Inushiro Inu's nervousness was all seen by Yamada behind him.
Sergeant Commander Yamada Kazuki is a real veteran. He participated in the 128th Shanghai Anti-Japanese War five years ago.
According to Yamada's qualifications, he should have entered the 6th Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and he should have become a second lieutenant after graduating from the 6th Army Non-commissioned Officer School. However, because he made serious mistakes while serving in Korea, his admission qualifications were revoked. As a result, he is still just a sergeant commander.
Compared with Inu Shiro, Yamada appears to be much calmer and more composed.
"Young Inu-san, you are too nervous." Yamada lit a cigarette and walked forward slowly while saying to Inu-san, "It is necessary to be vigilant, but it is not necessary to be nervous. Once you are nervous, your tactical movements will be It can transform. At a critical moment, this will kill you. Let me tell you a story."
Inushiro the little dog didn't say anything, but his ears perked up.
Yamada grinned and continued: "Xiaoquan-san, you are luckier than me. When the infantry regiment I was in was transferred to the Shanghai battlefield, I had only joined the army for less than two months and had not even trained as a recruit. It was completed, and as soon as we arrived on the battlefield, everyone was immediately confused."
"At that time, our team was responsible for guarding a bridgehead position, and happened to encounter a counterattack by the Chinese Army. Taking advantage of the cover of night, the Chinese Army unknowingly touched the front of our position. When our sentries spotted them, the forward of the Chinese Army They are all approaching within twenty meters."
"Soon, the Chinese army rushed to our position, and the defense of the position became a close combat. A tall Chinese soldier rushed towards me with a bayonet. I was so nervous at the time that I raised my gun and shot , only four or five meters, at such a close distance, I actually missed, Xiao Quan-Sang, can you believe it?"
Inu Shiro said in astonishment: "You can miss it from such a close distance?"
"You don't believe it? I don't believe it either." Yamada said cheerfully, "But the fact is the fact. I just missed the shot. The shot didn't hit the China soldier, but the China soldier stabbed me with a bayonet. body, leaving a hole in my shoulder forever."
As he spoke, Yamada took off his cotton military uniform, revealing a scar on his left shoulder.
Showing the scar to Inu Shiro, Yamada closed his military uniform again and said, "Just a little bit, the Chinese soldier's knife failed to hit my heart. Otherwise, the grass on my grave would be half a meter high and I would no longer be able to stand on it." Talking to you here.”
"Commander, thank you for telling me this." Koinushiro smiled at Yamada and said, "But the two Chinese soldiers we hunted this time are really different. They..."
"Koinushiro, they are the same, they are all Chinese soldiers." Yamada chuckled and interrupted Koinushiro.
However, the next moment, the smile on Yamada Kazuki's face suddenly solidified.
Inu Shiro saw Yamada's expression was different and asked: "What's wrong, Sergeant Commander?"
"Shh!" Yamada suddenly changed his expression and made a silencing gesture to Inushiro.
Ko Inushiro's heart suddenly trembled, but his eyes quickly fell on Yamada's hands.
Yamada Kazuki faced Inu Shiro and used his hands to type a series of tactical sign language, which meant: There is a person behind him at six o'clock, and it is very likely that he is one of the two Chinese soldiers!
Yamada also asked Inu Shiro to keep quiet and pretend to know nothing, and then reported the news to the squad leader, asking the squad leader to send two infantry teams to bypass from both sides, go around behind and sneak attack the two Chinese soldiers.
Inu Shiro paused slightly, and just turned around to report to the team leader, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a ghostly black figure standing behind Yamada Kazuki. At this time, the sky was not completely dark, and in the deep forest, , there was still a certain degree of visibility, so Inu Shiro got a clear look.
"Sergeant Commander!!!"
Inushiro the little dog immediately yelled, trying to remind Yamada to pay attention to what was behind him.
Seeing the look of fear on Inushiro Inu's face, Yamada Kazuki instantly realized the danger. Although he had heard a slight sound just now and recognized that it was not a bird or animal, but a person, he never expected that this The person had actually gotten close to him, less than half a meter away from him!
At the critical moment of life and death, Yamada Kazuki did not turn around, but took a big step to the left and forward, then lay down. While stepping forward, Yamada Kazuki also took out the tortoise box from his holster. .
Yamada's reaction is not bad, and the speed of firing the gun is also extremely fast.
However, unfortunately, Yamada met Xu Rui this time, and he was destined to become a tragedy.
Before Yamada lay down, almost the moment Yamada took out the tortoise box, Xu Rui had already approached behind Yamada like a ghost. Yamada was unaware because his back was to Xu Rui, but Inu Shiro could see clearly. Chu, that figure was so fast that it looked like Yamada's shadow. As soon as Yamada moved, he immediately followed him.
All this may sound slow, but actually it only happens in a blink of an eye.
In other words, Shiro Inu had just shouted "Sergeant Commander", and before the Japanese in front had time to look back, Xu Rui had already approached Yamada's back, pressed his hands on Yamada's top door and chin with a strong force, and only heard With a click, Yamada's head immediately turned around at a weird angle.
When Xu Rui let go again, Yamada's head drooped softly.
At this time, the Japanese in front heard the scream of Inu Shiro and turned around, and then happened to see the unconscious Yamada Kazuki falling straight down.
It was also at this time that the second half of the sentence stuck in Inu Shiro's throat came out loudly: "Be careful! There is a soldier behind you!!!"
The Japs in front quickly formed a fighting formation and turned back.
However, before the large group of Japanese soldiers turned back, the ghostly black figure simply somersaulted back and merged into the boundless darkness, disappearing without a trace.
The few Japs at the front squatted on the spot and fired randomly into the surrounding woods.
"Yamada-san!" Captain Ikeda squatted down, stretched out his hand to feel Yamada's breath, and then cursed, then turned his eyes to Inu Shiro, and asked with a gloomy face, "Inu-san, what happened just now?"
Because everything happened so fast and the light was poor, the team leader Ikeda and the entire team of Japanese soldiers did not see clearly what had just happened. They only saw Yamada falling.
Inu Shiro's eyes were dull, as if he was still immersed in fear.
Ikeda shouted several times, but there was no response from Inushiro. Ikeda became angry and slapped Inushiro in the ear. He cursed angrily: "Baga, Inushiro, wake up!"
This big slap finally woke up Inu Shiro.
Inu Shiro shivered in excitement and shouted: "Captain, ghost, there is a ghost here."
When he said this, Koinushiro's teeth chattered, and his spiritual beliefs had completely collapsed.
"Baga, what kind of ghost is that? It's a Shina soldier!" Captain Ikeda slapped Inushiro twice, and then asked, "Which direction did the Shina soldier run to just now?"
"Running this way." Koinushiro first pointed to the six o'clock direction.
Just as Captain Ikeda was about to give the order to pursue in the six o'clock direction, Inushiro Kogi's direction suddenly changed.
"No, it should be over here." Inushiro Kogi quickly changed his mind and pointed to nine o'clock, and then eight o'clock.
Team leader Ikeda's face immediately darkened, and he wished he could slap Inushiro again.
At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded from behind everyone. It was as pitiful as the desperate cry of a chicken when its wings were bitten by a weasel.
Ikeda and a group of Japanese soldiers turned around and looked back, but did not see anything unusual.
A moment later, a Japanese soldier who was lagging behind suddenly shouted in horror: "Captain, Qingshui-san is missing. I don't know where Qingshui-san has gone!" (To be continued.)
