Chapter 111: After the Break

"What now?" Running three or four hundred meters deep into the woodland in one breath, Tang Cheng slowed down his speed, and Huang Chengzhong, who was carried on his shoulders by Lao Dongbei, was already like gold paper. Handed Huang Chengzhong over to the people of the Dian army to watch, Lao Dongbei came to Tang Cheng's side, let Liu Shi take a flashlight, and Lao Dongbei began to check the wound under Tang Cheng's ribs.

"What else can I do, keep walking, only by getting rid of these devil soldiers can we really stop and take a breath." Tang Cheng raised his hands and let Lao Dongbei clean up the wound under his ribs, and then fiddled with the map with Liu Shishi's flashlight. "Out of the forest and go directly south to Wanjiaqiao, let's cross Fushui from Wanjiaqiao, and it may be really safe to cross the Fushui River." Finally found a way out from the map, but as soon as Tang Cheng's words fell, the dice ran over, saying that the Japanese army behind had chased after him.

Run, pursue, run, pursue, as long as the exhausted Tang Cheng and they stop to rest, the Japanese army, which has been falling behind them without hurry, will speed up, forcing Tang Cheng and them to continue to run, and they will chase Tang Cheng and others to death in this forest. "No, this won't work, everyone's body will not work, if you continue like this, you will be exhausted to death if you can't run far." Tang Cheng, whose legs were like falling lead lumps, was slumped on the ground, and others sat crookedly beside him.

"Old Northeast, you take them to continue south, first rush to Wanjia Bridge to prepare to cross the river, and Hou San and I will leave it for you to break off." Seeing that Lao Dongbei seemed a little reluctant, Tang Cheng finally glared, "Now is not the time to grind and chirp, if not, none of us may be able to escape," I know Japanese, Hou San has learned a few words with me these days, it's really not good, we can still pretend to be Japanese soldiers and run for our lives, what can you do if you stay behind." ”

After deciding that he and Hou San would stay, Tang Cheng called Lao Dongbei aside again, and whispered, "The stone has gold bars on it, and those gold bars are the capital for a few of us to settle down in the future, I don't care what method you use, give me the stone." "Seeing that Tang Cheng already loved you and decided to stay behind the broken queen, Lao Dongbei couldn't say anything, so he could only pick out two of the newest ones from a dozen rifles and leave them for Tang Cheng and Hou San.

A gust of wind blew, blowing and swaying several slender tree trunks, and the leaves were even more blown, blowing the grass branches used for camouflage on Tang Cheng and Hou San's bodies to a corner. "I hope they can run farther away," Tang Cheng muttered in a low voice, and then said to Hou San, "Leave you behind, do you blame me?" ”

"What is this, as long as I can kill the little devil, I will do whatever you want me to do." Hou San, who was also lying on his stomach, replied in a deep voice. Tang Cheng gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand and patted Hou San's shoulder gently, and moved straight to Hou San's left hand, behind Tang Cheng was their retreat route in the old northeast. The best way to get out is to go around a few trees and then turn a nest of bushes into the dense grass that can directly cover people, and behind the grass is a path that leads directly to Wanjia Bridge.

They had already gone far from the old northeast, but Tang Cheng and Hou San could not take this road to Wanjiaqiao, they had to block the Japanese army following here, and then use gunfire to distract the attention of the Japanese army, so that he and Hou San could move in the direction of Wanjiaqiao. After Tang Cheng was sure that there was no problem again, he returned to Hou San's side, "Did you find anything?" Tang Cheng leaned down and asked in a low voice.

"I guess the devil soldiers are around here, but there's no movement yet!" Hou San replied in a deep voice. Tang Cheng suddenly missed the wooden-handled grenades issued by the national army, if there were a few wooden-handled grenades, he would be able to arrange a treacherous mine defense line in front of him, no matter how the chasing Japanese troops hid their figures, the treacherous mines arranged in the forest could make them have nothing to hide.

Hirakawa Ichiro had a cold face all the way, what was originally an easy encirclement and suppression was turned into a pursuit battle, Hirakawa Ichiro, the Japanese army Shaozo, was greatly furious, especially those soldiers who rushed out of the encirclement actually shot more than 20 imperial soldiers under him, which made Hirakawa Ichiro angry, so he personally led the team to chase into this forest regardless of the prevention of his cronies. Although it is not known how many Shina soldiers broke out of the encirclement, but they have found the bodies of three opposing soldiers in the forest after chasing them all the way, and the other party does not dare to turn around and fight with him, so Hirakawa Ichiro concluded that the number of the other party will not be large.

Hirakawa Ichiro, who was also wearing a steel helmet and holding a rifle, did not know that Tang Cheng and Hou San were ambushed in front of him, probably because of the intuition of the officers, and when he was less than 50 meters away from Tang Cheng and Hou San, Hirakawa Ichiro suddenly ordered to stop advancing. There was still a period of time before dawn, and although it was not pitch black in the forest, everyone's sight was not very good, staring at the darkness in front of him, Hirakawa Ichiro did not give the order to continue the pursuit.

The purpose of Tang Cheng and Hou San to stay was just to delay the speed of the Japanese pursuit, Hirakawa Ichiro ordered to stop the advance and Tang Cheng's mind, the Japanese army did not appear, Tang Cheng and Hou San just lay down in the grass to recuperate. More than ten minutes passed, Tang Cheng had almost closed his eyes, and Hou San was still paying attention to the movements around him energetically. Hirakawa Ichiro finally couldn't bear the order to continue advancing, and as soon as their side moved, Hou San heard the sound of Japanese soldiers stepping on dead branches.

"Company commander, here, I don't sound right, the devil soldier seems to be thirty or forty meters in front of us." Hou San used his elbow to push against Tang Cheng, who was napping with his eyes closed, and the latter reached out and rubbed his sour eyes, and stood up against the dwarf tree beside him. Tang Cheng, who was standing against a low tree, listened to the movement in the forest, although Hirakawa Ichiro had told his soldiers to be a lot more careful, but the sound of the Japanese soldiers stepping on the dead branches was still heard by Tang Cheng.

"If the grenade explodes, you will shoot, and if I tell you to withdraw, you will run with me." Tang Cheng slowly pulled off the ring of the grenade, squatted down and whispered a few words in Hou San's ear, and without waiting for Hou San to nod in response, Tang Cheng knocked the grenade on the butt of the gun and threw it far away. Tang Cheng was squatting, so the grenade thrown was not very high, and a fireball was released from the dark forest, and the dozen or so Japanese soldiers with rifles on the cat's waist were clearly covered by the firelight.

"Bang" Hou San firmly remembered Tang Cheng's advice just now, and forcibly endured the discomfort that suddenly appeared in the firelight, and took the lead in firing a shot. Of course, Tang Cheng was not idle, and he raised his rifle against the dwarf tree next to him and "snapped" with one shot. Hirakawa Ichiro Where could they have thought that the enemy army like the lost dog they were chasing still had the strength to ambush Tang Cheng threw the grenade, and Hirakawa Ichiro, who heard the movement, just stopped, originally thought that someone was walking in the forest, but he didn't expect it to be a grenade thrown by the other party.

"Bang" "Bang" Tang Cheng and Hou Sanyou each fired a shot, Tang Cheng turned around and left with a low shout, and Hou San also followed into the forest with a rifle. "Ba Ge Yalu, damn the Shina people, chase them and kill them." Hirakawa Ichiro, who was stretched out by his soldiers, had his eyes wide open, and the thick smell of blood in the air made Hirakawa Ichiro lose his previous calm, if he could calm down and carefully recall the attack just now, he would find that there were only two people on the other side.

"Quick, quick, fast" Tang Cheng and Hou San ran lifelessly in the forest, the fast running made them look like mountain beasts jumping in the woods, and the good body that they usually trained was reflected at this time. I finally got out of the woods, but a hillside appeared in front of me. Tang Cheng, who was running in front of him, shouted, and then the whole person fell down the slope, and the bullets fired from behind whistled over their heads when the two of them fell down the hill, and a nest of bushes on the top of the hillside seemed to have been plowed over, and the sawdust hit by the bullets flew wildly.

The two men who slid down the hill glanced back, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief. "Company commander, what should we do now? Do you go directly to Wanjiaqiao? Hou San looked at Tang Cheng nervously. The two of them have been walking around the forest with the Japanese soldiers behind them for a while, the old northeast they may have rushed to Wanjiaqiao a long time ago, Hou San is now a little worried that he and Tang Cheng will be separated from the old northeast, Tang Cheng looked behind him, he had vaguely heard the constant shouts of the Japanese soldiers, it was obvious that the Japanese army following them did not give up the pursuit. "Not yet," Tang Cheng got up and said, "Don't look at the map there is only a short distance, but there is still a long way to really walk, they still have injured brothers in the old northeast, and the speed will definitely not be fast, we have to buy them enough time, and then take these devil soldiers around a few times." ”

Hearing Tang Cheng say that he would continue to wander around here, Hou San couldn't help crying, Tang Cheng slapped his arm, and urged repeatedly, "Hurry up, we are tired, and the devil soldiers chasing us are also tired." With that, Tang Cheng quickly ran forward, and the helpless Hou San only followed closely behind and kept chasing Tang Cheng.

As Tang Cheng has always believed, fighting a war requires not only courage and alertness, but also a certain amount of luck. Hirakawa Ichiro's anger created Tang Cheng's luck in a certain way, and the grenade that Tang Cheng threw in the forest almost made Hirakawa Ichiro a corpse, if it weren't for the Japanese soldier walking in front of Hirakawa Ichiro who took most of the shrapnel after the grenade exploded, maybe Hirakawa Ichiro would have been flying blood gourd by the flying shrapnel.

It is precisely because of this that Ichiro Hiragawa, who claims to be wise, lost his former calmness, regardless of the command of his soldiers to closely pursue Tang Cheng and Hou San, completely ignoring the dissuasion of several veterans under him. Hirakawa Ichiro's persistence made him lose the opportunity to intercept Lao Dongbei and others, and followed Tang Cheng around the forest for a long time, whether it was Tang Cheng or Hirakawa Ichiro, they had lost their sense of direction, if it weren't for the rising sun, Hirakawa Ichiro might not even be able to find the north.
