Facing the flames spreading everywhere, Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng also panicked. Li Ming was calmer, he took his thumb in his mouth, and then took it out and raised it above his head to determine the exact direction of the wind now.

Then he yelled at Zhong Dahai: "Old Zhong, you and Wang Sheng pull out the hay here, and cut down all the dry branches......

Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng listened to Li Ming's words, and hurriedly rushed over to pull the weeds desperately according to Li Ming's instructions, and also used a simple knife to cut down the chaotic branches one after another, and the fire spread quickly, but fortunately, they responded in time and avoided the fire.

But the fierce fire around him had already set off a raging flame several meters high, and the scorching temperature had made Li Ming's face almost scorched, and even his hair was curled upside down.

Moreover, several large trees around them were also ignited, causing the temperature in their place to rise sharply, and the smoke around them also smoked so that several people couldn't open their eyes and coughed violently.

The woods were not too dense, and in a short period of time, a fierce fire had already spread, and the roar of thieves could be heard outside. Although Li Ming and the others survived the fire, they would have to face the attack of the thieves outside.

Li Ming checked the remaining ammunition, and there were two bullets with a little more magazine, with dozens of bullets, he couldn't stop the crazy thief at all. He glanced at Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng next to him, both of whom were also holding Pu Dao tightly, and their eyes were full of determination.

At this moment, there was a faint buzzing sound in the distance, and Li Ming's eyes froze, followed by incomparable excitement. He was all too familiar with the sound, it was the sound of an airship engine.

It seems that the fire set by the thieves led the search and rescue forces of the Far Eastern Army. Thinking of this, Li Ming did not hesitate at all. Pulling out two red smoke sticks from his waist and pulling them violently, two thick red smoke quickly diffused and slowly drifted into the air.

The two Far Eastern Army search and rescue airships that were cruising in the surrounding airspace were indeed attracted by the smoke in the distance. They lowered their altitude and slowly flew towards the smoke-filled woods.

Several officers and soldiers with binoculars were constantly observing the ground. In the past two days, they have flown almost all over the surrounding airspace. In order to allow the sound of the airship to be heard on the ground, the search and rescue forces in various airspaces also lowered their altitudes regardless of it, which also caused a lot of chaos in Daming.

When did the people of the Ming Dynasty ever see the airships, huge airships flew at low altitudes all over the Ming Dynasty, which made the border troops of Xuanfu Town, Datong Town and Jizhou Town so frightened that they were about to pee.

Many ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty and even the whole village gathered in the open space outside the village, and also made a lot of pulp tribute, kneeling down to the airship swaggering through the air, they thought that this was a god descending to earth.

"Red Smoke...... Red smoke ......"

Suddenly, a non-commissioned officer of the Far Eastern Army suddenly shouted excitedly. The officers and soldiers in the airship pod gathered around, and they all saw the red mixed in the smoke.

"Discover the target...... Nine o'clock direction...... ...... at nine o'clock"

The two huge airships slowly turned their huge bodies, and several engines roared violently, flying towards the direction of the red smoke at great speed.

Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng looked at Li Ming, who was laughing there with two smoke sticks, and couldn't help but worry in their hearts, is this person crazy, now that hundreds of thieves are eyeing him outside, he still has the heart to laugh here. Who believes that he is not sick.

"Come on...... Kill them...... Whoever grabs those two little ladies first......"

As the smoke cleared, the thieves outside the woods came to their senses again. They roared with weapons and rushed into the woods. Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of despair in each other's eyes.

"Brother, I originally thought that begging the adults to take you from your hometown and settle down can be regarded as repaying your father's kindness for saving my life back then, but I didn't think about it, but I hurt you......"

"Master Zhong, don't say that. It's a big deal to die today, but before I die, I have to pull a few back-to-back ......."

Wang Sheng held the Pu knife in his hand stiffly, there was no trace of fear in his eyes, this age is the age of full of blood, once he comes up with desperate energy. Don't care about anything.

Li Ming didn't look at the approaching thieves around him at all, his eyes were constantly observing the air, although the hum of the airship engine was getting louder and louder, but the airship did not appear above his head, and his heart was still unsteady.

Zhong Dahai turned his head and shouted at Li Ming: "Brother, don't be stunned anymore, the thieves are about to come in......"

Li Ming glanced around, the woods had just been lost by the fire, the original dense weeds and messy branches had been burned away, the ground was black and swarthy, and only the big trees that had been burned and only the main trunk were standing unevenly.

Hundreds of ragged homeless people surrounded them with all kinds of weapons, their eyes red and full of violence. These people may have been honest farmers all their lives, but a great drought has driven them to a dead end, and they have become as uninhabited as they are today, with nothing but brutal desires in their eyes.

Zhong Dahai and Wang Sheng yelled to cheer themselves up, but their palms were already full of sweat, and their throats and eyes were dry and almost smoking. Xiaohuan was even more curled up on the ground, crying with horror on his face.

The stout men at the front of the thieves laughed and said, "Brothers, kill them and ...... those two little girls."

Before he could finish his words, the sky suddenly darkened, and the people on the ground couldn't help but raise their heads, and were suddenly stunned by the two behemoths that appeared in the air.

"Bang bang...... Bang bang ......"

With the sound of dense gunfire, the thieves surrounding Li Ming and them were swept to the ground one by one as if they had been cut leeks, and they were beaten into a sieve one by one.

The thieves were already frightened by the two huge airships, and now they were even more frightened and almost urinated, and the ghosts cried and ran away in all directions.

Ropes were thrown from the airship pod, and stout officers and soldiers from the Far East followed the ropes to the ground, and the first non-commissioned officer saw Li Ming, and hurriedly ran forward to salute and shouted: "Comrade commander, the fourth squad of the special operations brigade of the Northwest Army ......."

Li Ming waved his hand, interrupted the other party's report, and said in a deep voice: "Leave me alone, there is a seriously injured person here who needs to be sent back to Shenyang for treatment immediately, let the airship prepare to lift the wounded, and ...... quickly."

The leader of the special operations team was stunned for a moment, but immediately took out his walkie-talkie and shouted: "Fox Shadow No. 3, Fox Shadow No. 3, there are two seriously injured people on the ground, immediately lift the wounded......

After a while, two professional stretchers were lowered from the airship, and the special operations team sent the seriously injured girl and Li Ming smoothly onto the airship. (To be continued.) )
