Chapter 2056 Entering the Artillery Tower at Night

The night was getting late and it was almost midnight. The puppet soldier responsible for guarding the suspension bridge was sitting on a stool and taking a nap with his rifle in his arms.

He couldn't drink much wine, so today he finally had a meal of blood sausage that could only be eaten during the Chinese New Year and drank some, and the result was what he was like now.

His head had already dropped, but just when he was about to fall asleep, the rifle he held in his arms fell to the ground with a thud, and he woke up.

At this time he heard a "crash" sound.

The suspension bridge is right on the edge of the moat, and the "squeaking" sound means someone is peeing into the moat.

This is definitely not allowed in normal times, because the Japanese won’t allow it.

But today the Japanese also drank too much.

"Who?" He finally asked.

"Me." The man replied, "Your sixth uncle."

"Uncle Six." The puppet soldier responded, and then he vaguely remembered that Uncle Six, the leader, had stayed here after delivering pork to the gun tower today.

No one would regard their leader, Uncle Six, as an outsider. We were all too familiar with each other, and today because of the smell of the meat he stewed, the Japanese squad leader even gave Uncle Six a thumbs up and said "Yo Xi".

"Are you in class tonight?" Lao Liu asked.

"My class." The puppet soldier answered and then asked with concern, "Uncle Six, why aren't you sleeping?"

"Why are you sleeping? Everyone is snoring and gritting their teeth and farting." The sixth child complained.

The puppet soldier laughed "hehe".

The artillery building has three floors, with the Japanese troops living on the upper floor and their puppet troops living on the lower two floors.

It was a big bunkhouse where everyone slept together.

Naturally, it’s weird to sleep when there are many people. Isn’t it normal to snore, grind your teeth, and fart?

"Okay, you go back to sleep, I'll watch for you for a while." The sixth uncle said.

"That's not good. If you watch for me, the boss will know that it's time to train me tomorrow." The puppet soldier replied.

"I'll tell you then, you're so scared that you won't change the post right away. How big a deal will it be for me to do it for you later?" The old man said disapprovingly.

"Hey, that's great!" The puppet soldier beamed with joy upon hearing this.

To be honest, he had nothing to worry about when he showed Lao Liu this suspension bridge.

These puppet soldiers were so familiar with Lao Liu that even when they were together, they wouldn't care about Uncle Liu playing with their guns.

Besides, what can happen to this turret? It is close to the county seat. If there is a real situation, the gunshots will be fired, and the reinforcements from the county seat will soon arrive.

"I won't leave the gun for you." The puppet soldier said.

"What do I want with that thing? It's going to go off the rails again." The old man said disapprovingly.

So the puppet soldier went to the gun tower, and Lao Liu sat down on the bench.

There was a sound at the door, and everything fell silent again.

At this time, the moat made a "ding-dong" sound, indicating that stones were thrown into the water.

Next, the "ding-dong" sound rang two more times in succession.

After a while, there were two more "ding-dong" sounds in the water.

There was a murmuring sound on this side of the moat. It was the old man who was untying the rope of the suspension bridge.

There is as much starlight in the sky as there is in the calm moat.

But slowly, the starlight disappeared in a place in the river. That was where the suspension bridge on the moat was slowly lowered.

The moat is only about ten meters wide, so people can't just jump over it.

However, the wooden suspension bridge must have weighed nearly 200 kilograms anyway, and it was very difficult for the old man to pull the rope and lower it down alone.

Usually when the puppet troops lower the suspension bridge, it is only for two people.

And just on this side of the moat, someone was looking up at the starry sky blocked by black shadows.

Finally, someone stretched out his hand to catch the slowly falling black shadow. The person was so strong that the wooden bridge fell extremely slowly, and the uncle Liu on the other side of the moat became lighter.

Another person stepped forward, and the wooden bridge was finally quietly placed on the shore by a few people. Then someone stepped on the wooden bridge to cross the moat while holding on to the railings.

There was a rustle of footsteps, and it was obvious that there were many people crossing the bridge.

In normal times, the door into the turret would be bolted inside, and the door would be unlocked only after the men who were changing the guard got up. The door would also be bolted shut after the men who were leaving the guard entered the house.

What if the fortress is always breached from within?

Today, Uncle Six came out of the bunker to relieve himself. All the puppet soldiers in the room were fast asleep. Who would care if he didn't open the door?

It only took a moment for those individuals to enter the room and light the kerosene lamp on the table. What they saw was a group of puppet soldiers snoring and farting through gritted teeth!

And at the moment when the kerosene lamp was lit, the several people who entered the room each had their own division of labor. Some directly walked over and gathered all the guns against the wall, some pointed the box cannon in their hands at the puppet soldiers, and some Go directly to the stairwell from the first floor to the second floor. How to deal with these puppet troops? They are just appetizers. If you deal with the Japanese troops on the third floor, that will be the feast!

Although there are two levels of puppet troops, the Japanese army on the third level cannot be ignored.

To say that these puppet soldiers had eaten well, drank well and slept well today, it was really nice. Only now did one of them sleepily mutter, "Why are you lighting the lamp?"

But when he opened his eyes, he saw a black muzzle pointing directly at his face!

He was about to shout, but he felt a chill on his neck, and felt like a sharp knife against his throat!

Instantly, he finally woke up, staring with frightened eyes, but he didn't make a sound.

It turned out that it was almost midnight, and this was the puppet soldier who was supposed to change his post.

The one who should have made a noise didn't make a noise, and the remaining puppet soldiers were still sleeping, which made Qian Chuan'er, who had rushed into the house, laugh and cry!

The leader of the puppet army here called the old six of that family "Sixth Uncle", and the puppet soldiers under him had a certain relationship with him more or less.

Qian Chuan'er had no intention of killing these puppet soldiers. He originally planned to wake up the puppet soldiers after they entered the artillery tower, and then prevent them from making any sound.

But who would have thought that except for the one who just woke up, the other puppet soldiers were still sleeping soundly!

Now Qian Chuan'er couldn't shout loudly to wake up all the puppet soldiers. What if one of the puppet soldiers saw his group of people entering the house and shouted loudly with a knife or a gun, and then alarmed the Japanese soldiers upstairs!

Qian Chuan'er and his men didn't expect the puppet soldiers to sleep so soundly, but that didn't mean the Japanese soldiers on the third floor would sleep so soundly. If they were to alarm the Japanese soldiers on the third floor, the gunshots would turn their sneak attack into a strong attack, and it would be difficult to capture the Japanese squad leader alive!

At this time, it was Lao Liu who had also entered the room who saw Qian Chuan'er's embarrassment, so he walked to the inside of the big bunk bed, then bent down and gently patted the man inside, whispering, "Big Nose, wake up, wake up, I'm your sixth uncle!"

It turned out that Big Nose was the nickname of the puppet army leader.

When Lao Liu went to call for help, a Northeast Army soldier followed him.

After Lao Liu patted twice, the puppet army leader finally woke up, and in a daze, he really heard the voice of his sixth uncle, and asked, "What's the matter, sixth uncle?"

"Don't shout first, something happened." That was all the sixth uncle could say.
