Chapter 60: Escape from the Pursuers
Seeing familiar faces walking in front of him, Liu Hong couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, like a lost child finally returning home.
But now is not the time to catch up, Liu Hong looked at the little devil in the distance again, the originally blazing gaze cooled down again, just saw a devil officer waving a command knife is shouting loudly, thinking that he is directing his troops to pursue, Liu Hong didn't say a word, and raised the 38 big cover in his hand is a shot.
A crisp gunshot rang out, and the bullet instantly hit the devil's head, only to see a dog's head burst open like a rotten watermelon, and the devil's eyes suddenly widened, his face was full of disbelief, and he fell to the ground with his head up.
The little devils around were so frightened that they lay on the ground, and the angry little devils raised their guns one after another and shot at the pear grove, but no one dared to continue the pursuit for a while.
Liu Hong quickly hid behind a big tree and shouted at Zhao Lei: "Retreat~!" Zhao Lei nodded, turned around and ran into the distance with Bai Ling, Wu Feng and the others.
Liu Hong raised the rifle in his hand again, aimed at a little devil who stood up, decisively pulled the trigger, and smashed his dog's head with one shot, and the other little devils who tried to stand up were so frightened that they lay on the ground again and didn't dare to move.
After a while, the little devils dared to get up cautiously, but at this time, Liu Hong and the others had already disappeared into the forest, and the little devils were annoyed and angry, and they shouted loudly and chased after them.
In fact, at this time, there are only more than 20 little devils left, and it is not difficult for Liu Hong and them to eliminate this group of little devils, but since there is a group of little devils here, there must be other little devils, once the gunfire attracts more little devils, the consequences are unimaginable, so they must transfer as soon as possible, get rid of the pursuit of this little devil, and are making plans.
However, in the plains, and during the day, it was not so easy to completely get rid of the pursuit of this little devil, but the two sides had already opened a distance of six or seven hundred meters, and it was difficult for the little devil to catch up.
However, at this moment, Wu Feng suddenly shouted loudly: "There is a little devil in the east. ”
Liu Hong's face changed slightly, he looked up, and sure enough, he saw a group of little devils coming towards this side due east, and it was roughly estimated that the number of people should be more than a hundred, Liu Hong couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat to the northwest~!" ”
Wu Feng did not hesitate and immediately ordered the troops to retreat to the northwest. However, this is not a solution, Liu Hong ran to Zhao Lei's side and asked loudly: "I am not familiar with the nearby terrain, do you know any special terrain nearby that can get rid of this little devil?" ”
Zhao Lei thought about it while running, and then said: "There is a village in front, there is a small river in the north of the village, only more than ten meters wide, the water in the river should be very deep after the rain just now, if we cross the river, we should be able to get rid of this little devil." ”
"Is there a bridge?" Liu Hong asked loudly.
"There is a wooden bridge at the edge of the village, but I don't know if it has been destroyed." Zhao Lei said with a frown. When the Eighth Route Army retreated, in order to prevent the devils from pursuing, it often destroyed some bridges.
"Hope is not ruined!" Liu Hong nodded, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, work harder, our Eighth Route Army is a famous iron footboard, if we can't beat the little devils, wouldn't it be a discredit to our Eighth Route Army?" Keep moving forward quickly. ”
Liu Hong and the soldiers ran out for more than two miles, and sure enough, they saw a village in front of them, but Liu Hong did not enter the village, but under the leadership of Zhao Lei, they bypassed the village from the north, and when they arrived at the north of the village, they saw a small river, fortunately, the wooden bridge on the river was still there, and the soldiers were naturally overjoyed.
Liu Hong shouted: "Brothers, hurry up and cross the river, prepare a high-speed grenade, and blow up the bridge!" ”
Soon the fighters all crossed the river, and two of the fighters prepared two cluster grenades, pulled the leads, and threw them on the bridge, only to hear 'Boom! Boom, two violent explosions sounded, and the rudimentary wooden bridge was instantly shattered, and the broken planks and wood fell into the river one after another, floating away along the river.
After crossing the river, Liu Hong led this group of people to run north for more than two miles, and then turned along a small road and advanced westward, and ran out for seven or eight miles, and finally did not see the little devil catch up, and the soldiers dared to stop and rest.
At this time, the soldiers were all tired and out of breath, and got into a forest on the side of the road, and sat on the ground one by one, leaning against the big tree and panting.
Wu Feng sat next to Liu Hong and asked breathlessly, "Liu Hong, did you really blow up that forward base of the devil?" ”
Liu Hong nodded and said: "It's a pure fluke, in order to blow it up, Lao Tzu almost put his life on the line." ”
Wu Feng showed a hint of joy on his face, punched Liu Hong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's really yours, you did a good job, and you can be relieved when you listen to it." ”
Liu Hong waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this yet, what's the matter with you, have you also been separated from the big army?" ”
"Not for you?" Wu Feng's face was pale, and he said angrily: "The commander received information that you blew up the devil's advance base, so he sent us over to meet you, but I didn't expect to be careless, and let the little devil surround you, but this is all your fault, so you saved us, and we won't be grateful to you." ”
Liu Hong frowned and asked, "Who are you talking about as commander?" ”
"Who else? The permanent commander of our Eighth Army Division has died, and the headquarters has also suffered heavy losses, and it has not yet been rebuilt! The commander I'm talking about is, of course, Commander Lu of our Jizhong Military Region. Wu Feng said breathlessly.
"Commander Lu! Are you saying that Commander Lu asked you to pick us up? Liu Hong asked with a look of surprise.
"That's right! When Commander Lu heard that you had blown up the devil's advance base, he was going crazy with joy, and issued an order to bring you back to the headquarters at all costs, no matter what. I heard that the three of you sent back a message to the commander, saying that there is a special mission, what special mission? I think you guys are dying, there are little devils everywhere around Lijiazhuang. Wu Feng asked with some puzzlement.
"It's nothing, it's just an old devil who just killed him." Liu Hong said casually.
"You kid is just unreliable, in order to kill an old devil, you don't even want your life." Wu Feng said dissatisfied.
At this time, Bai Ling next to him suddenly interjected and said: "This old devil is not an ordinary little devil, it is Lin Fangtaro, the commander of the Seventh Independent Brigade, who was killed by Liu Hong with a shot this morning. ”
