Chapter 275 General Gu is not simple
Matouling was originally a small town, and the train station was just outside the town.
Although Matouling is small, it has a dangerous terrain and is still an important strategic location in military terms.
Therefore, the Japanese army deployed a small team here, with more than 30 people, and more than 200 people from the Manchukuo National Defense Army. The total number was close to 300 people, which was still a considerable military force.
After Ma Zhankui's bandits had eaten and drunk their fill, they followed Gu Wenxuan to Matouling to prepare to transport food.
Gu Wenxuan asked Ma Zhankui to try his best to arrange someone who could drive a car to go together.
Ma Zhankui selected 500 young and strong men to follow Gu Wenxuan.
After all, he is 50 kilometers away from Matouling Town. He has to ensure physical strength to transport the food back. Even when fighting at Matouling, it is unknown whether there will be a tough battle. Ma Zhankui doesn't know now.
After several hours of marching, they finally arrived at Matouling, not far from the train station. It was almost midnight.
Gu Wenxuan took out a German-made military telescope and pretended to look at it.
Then he said to Ma Zhankui:
"There should be no trains coming in during this period, so you can see that the guards at the train station are very lax, with only a few soldiers on duty. But there are two machine guns guarding the sentry tower. I have to take out the machine gunner first before you let your soldiers in."
Ma Zhankui was very envious of the telescope in Gu Wenxuan's hand. You see, here is 2 kilometers away from the train station, and people can see everything clearly there, but my mortal eyes can never see so far.
After taking a look, Gu Wenxuan put the telescope into Ma Zhankui's hand:
"Commander Ma, you can use this telescope. It is very useful for scouting the enemy."
Ma Zhankui happily took the telescope, played with it in his hands for a while, and couldn't let it go.
"Thank you, General Gu. I have never used such foreign goods before."
Gu Wenxuan said nothing more. He took Tan Tai Leng Yue and his dog with him and flashed onto the flat road.
Ma Zhankui's soldiers were still hiding in a bush.
In front of the bush is a flat road with no cover, which is about 2 kilometers away from the train station. This 2 kilometers is the most dangerous distance because the guard tower at the train station can clearly see the avenue, and they can shoot at you with machine guns if they are suspicious.
Miss Tantai, holding her dog, asked Gu Wenxuan excitedly, "Brother-in-law, are we really going to attack the Japanese stronghold?"
Gu Wenxuan: "Of course it's true. Look at those bandits. They don't even have steamed bread to eat. If we don't take down this train station and grab some food to take back, they'll probably starve to death on that mountain if the Japanese don't attack them!"
Miss Tantai: "It's just that the weather in these places is too cold. There's nowhere to hide when winter comes. It's not like us in the south where we can find any place to hide."
"Well, be careful not to talk. Look, that person on the sentry tower seems to have noticed us. His searchlight is sweeping over us!"
There were four Japanese soldiers on this guard tower, two of them were machine gunners, and the other two were lookouts, one in the south and one in the north, observing the situation.
Sure enough, a searchlight shone on Gu Wenxuan and Tan Tai Lengyue.
A Wehrmacht soldier on the watchtower shouted at them with a megaphone:
"Who are you? Don't come any closer, or we'll shoot!"
Although Tantai Lengyue was brave, she was a little scared now in this open space with the Japanese guard towers looking down on her with machine guns pointed at them. She moved closer to Gu Wenxuan and asked him softly:
"Brother-in-law, what should we do now? Should we retreat or charge forward?"
Gu Wenxuan saw Tan Tai Leng Yue standing close to him.
Seeing that this little girl had never been afraid before, but today she acted like a little girl, I couldn't help but tease her:
"What's wrong? My sister-in-law is scared. Does she regret coming out with her brother-in-law?"
When Tan Tai Ming Yue heard Gu Wen Xuan call her sister-in-law, her face immediately flushed. Fortunately, it was the middle of the night and although there was strong light, it was not very obvious and no shyness could be seen on her face.
Tan Tai Ming Yue tried to remain calm: "I will never be afraid when I am with my brother-in-law!"
Gu Wenxuan stopped trying to scare her and said to her:
"What are these little Japanese? It would only take a flick of my fingers for me to kill them. Look, my brother-in-law is going to show you a magic trick!"
As Gu Wenxuan waved his hands, a thin layer of fog rose from the ground and slowly enveloped them.
Even the searchlight could not shine in, and Tan Tai Leng Yue felt that she could only vaguely see within a few feet at most. If it was more than ten feet away, she could not even see the small branches beside the road.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers on the watchtower had seen two people walking about 1 km away from them, but suddenly a fog came and wrapped them up, and they could no longer be seen.
Moreover, the fog seemed to be rolling towards their guard post.
The soldiers on the watchtower were suspicious and didn't know what was going on with the fog. The key point was that the two men were missing.
This happened in the middle of the night and scared the sentries quite a bit.
A soldier raised his rifle and fired two shots in the fog. He fired these two shots purely to give himself courage and had no idea whether he hit anyone or not!
Tan Tai Leng Yue heard the gunshots from the watchtower and the sound of bullets hitting not far from them.
Tan Tai Leng Yue was now excited and scared. She couldn't help but clench her brother-in-law's hand: "Brother-in-law, is this magic? Or a spell?"
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "Don't worry if it's magic or sorcery, as long as it can hide you, then that's good."
"Brother-in-law, I've known for a long time that you are not an ordinary person. This is definitely not magic, it must be a spell. Can you fly? Brother-in-law, can you take me flying with you?"
Gu Wenxuan was excited: "Fly? Of course, but I want to take you with me, and I have to hold you. Don't think that I am taking advantage of you, so I can take you with me."
When Tantai Lengyue heard that she could fly, she didn't care whether her brother-in-law would hug her waist or not, she immediately nodded and agreed:
"Brother-in-law, it's okay. Just hug me around the waist. What's the big deal? I treat you like a big brother!"
Gu Wenxuan saw that the older girl didn't care, so what was he afraid of? He stretched out his hands and hugged Miss Tantai's waist, kicked the ground and flew up. The fog tightly wrapped them and flew towards the guardhouse 1 kilometer ahead.
Tan Tai Leng Yue nervously saw the wind blowing gently under her feet. She was so excited that she almost screamed. She bit her hand tightly with her teeth.
They were afraid that their screams would be discovered by the Japanese and they would be shot with machine guns, which would be troublesome.
Ma Zhankui's soldiers, hiding in the grass and bushes, also saw the strangest scene.
Originally, they could see the figures of the two people in the distance, but suddenly a gust of wind blew a gust of fog over, which wrapped them up, and then they could no longer be seen. They also heard shouts from the watchtower, and then gunshots.
Qi Delong asked Ma Zhankui: "Commander, do you feel that the ancient general seems to have some magic? Look how a fog rose up out of nowhere. And they disappeared."
Ma Zhankui said thoughtfully: "This General Gu is not simple!"
