After attacking the Japanese troops in the wooden house area, Tang Cheng not only had to avoid being entangled by the Japanese army, but also carried out the orders of the command to attack and harass the Japanese army, which made Tang Cheng clash with Mike in terms of strategy. After the heavy damage to the Kawada brigade on the red clay slope, Mike was no longer accustomed to the tactics of Morning Glory formulated by Tang Cheng, and instead asked Tang Cheng to find a suitable terrain to hold on, wait for the Japanese army to arrive, and use strong firepower to defeat the invading enemy in one fell swoop.

Tang Cheng did not rely on and fantasize about American equipment like Mike, and after fighting the Japanese army for several years, Tang Cheng knew the tenacity and combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. If the materials promised by the headquarters cannot arrive on time, once they are entangled by the Japanese reinforcements, they will not be able to leave when they want to. Instead of being forced to fight with the Japanese army, it is better to follow the old method, first use the jungle to walk the Japanese army like a dog, and then find an opportunity to overthrow them.

After all, Mike couldn't compete with Tang City, so after the car got into the wooden house area, more than 200 people from his direct company reflexively entered the jungle like a swarm. This forest has been walked twice by Tang Cheng, and compared to the Japanese troops stationed here, Tang Cheng is no stranger to the brothers here. "Stop and rest for a while, and we'll be off in half an hour." The exhausted Tang Cheng finally ordered to rest in place under Mike's pleading, seeing that the soldiers under his command had already staggered, and they could not rest any longer.

In the past two days, I hardly slept in the past two days, and everyone took advantage of the short break to hold their guns and squint for a while, and the tripping thunder used for the guard a few miles away in the back would be triggered from time to time by the pursuing Japanese troops. Run, keep running, everyone has only the same thought in their minds, this is the real rush. Finally, it was time to rest again, everyone sat and lay staggered, this is tired and hungry, some veterans will have already held their weapons and closed their eyes to take the opportunity to take a nap.

Although everyone has been trained to survive in the jungle in Ledo, and it is not the first time that they have marched in such a jungle, this kind of forced march is unbearable for individuals. There were wild beasts in the jungle, but they couldn't fight, and to shoot was to remind the Japanese of their location. There was dry wood in the jungle, and they did not dare to light a bonfire, for fear that the smoke would expose them during the day, and at night they were afraid that the light of the fire would expose them, and for two days, everyone could only rely on compressed biscuits and cold boiled water to satisfy their hunger.

If it weren't for the hard persistence and Tang Cheng's coercion, they wouldn't have had the body to run here, everyone would have hurried to rest, but Tang Cheng took people to the back to arrange the thunder, this tireless guy seems to have an energy that can never be exhausted. Doctor Yue was changing the dressing for Hou San's wound, the wound on Hou San's leg was not very strict, the shot only penetrated the muscles, not the bones, and the military doctor was only worried that the wound on Hou San's leg would become inflamed due to the dampness and heat in the jungle.

"Doctor, you can't be light!" Hou San wow wow ghost scream. The military doctor with a calm face ignored him, but only forced him to apply medicine to the wound on his thigh, and stuffed it with a small stick wrapped in a cotton wool. Originally, the military doctor wanted to give Hou San a morphine injection, but Hou San said that he couldn't give him morphine, and someone would carry him away if he did. The military doctor was very disdainful of Hou San's insistence, they were chased by the Japanese army for two days, and during these two days, Hou San, who was wounded in the thigh, was carried away by the soldiers most of the time.

Seeing that the military doctor was not ready to take care of himself, Hou San had no choice but to shut his mouth and grit his teeth to endure the military doctor's rectification. Even if he was in pain and his forehead was in cold sweat, he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word until the military doctor finished bandaging the new first aid, and waited for the pain from the wound to ease a little, and Hou San, whose lips were white, opened his mouth to take the cigarette handed by Tan Fei and took a shuddering puff. Tan Fei squinted at Hou San, who was enduring the pain, and said in a low voice, "Call it out, the devil soldiers are still far away, and they can't hear our voices." ”

Hou San shook his head and asked how far the Japanese army behind him was, Tan Fei didn't know how far the Japanese army behind him was, so he just replied with a general answer, "Come on." Tan Fei had just answered Hou San, only to hear a "pop" gunfire that broke the tranquility of the jungle, followed by two shots in the other two directions. Tan Fei stretched out his hand to pick up his rifle, but his eyes looked at a bush moving with the wind in the jungle not far away.

The three gunshots were still some distance away from Tan Fei and them, and they had been chased by the Japanese army for two days, and the people in the direct company knew that it was the Japanese army who was chasing them and was using gunfire to communicate. Listening to the direction of the gunshots, the pursuing Japanese troops had roughly formed a fan-shaped plane, and were approaching the current position of the directly subordinate company. Everyone quieted down, looked in the direction of the gunfire, and was chased by the Japanese army for two consecutive days, and they also understood the Japanese army's jungle combat ability.

No matter how they ran or how they eliminated the traces of their passing, these Japanese soldiers could find them and catch up with them, like a pack of wild dogs that could never get rid of them. "It won't be more than three miles." The rock dragon in the bushes looked at Tang Cheng fixedly. According to the terrain when they walked this forest a few times last time, there will be a river not far ahead, if they keep this distance and be chased by the Japanese army to the river, the direct company will not have to cross the river, Tang Cheng, as the commander, must have an idea.

Tang Cheng withdrew with his guards from the direction where the gunfire came, and saw that his soldiers were all looking at him, and now if he wanted to ensure that most of the people in his direct company could cross the river safely, someone had to stay behind to contain or divert the Japanese troops who were following behind. In order to buy time for most people to cross the river, those who leave can live, but those who stay after being frightened may die, but who goes and who stays, who lives and who dies? Tang Cheng began to be confused, he is not a god, and he has no power to decide the life and death of people, not to mention that these are his subordinates, his brothers.

"I'll take people to stay and lure away the devils, I'm familiar with the terrain of this area, and after you all cross the river, I'll take people around the river to meet you." The head of the rock dragon stepped forward one by one, this situation did not need to be said by Tang Cheng, he knew what to do. Compared with the others, Yan Long, who has been serving as a scout, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate for the direct company to stay, and among the remaining 200 people in the direct company, there is no one who is more familiar with the jungle than him, and besides, those who stay may not die here.

"I'll stay too, anyway, my leg is injured, and I won't be able to get wet at that time, so it's better to stay here and fight with the devil soldiers." It was Hou San who spoke, and Hou San, who was biting a cigarette in his mouth, was unwilling to leave Tang Cheng and run by himself at any time.

"That's one of me." Tan Fei, who was sitting next to Hou San, also stood up.

"And me!" Liu Shishi raised his hand happily, as if he was participating in a hunt. "And me!" "We!" The soldiers who had been lying crookedly and resting all stood up. Tang Cheng was moved, but now was not the time to be moved and express his feelings, as a commander, he had to make a rational decision right away.

"Yanlong, you lead people to continue to explore the road in front, and you want to take your beloved across the river, I will stay behind the break, Dice will take a few snipers to stay and help me, and the others will cross the river first, this is an order." Tang Cheng did not hesitate to make the final decision, although Liu Shishi and they were very reluctant, but this was Tang Cheng's decision, even Mike couldn't reverse it, and a few of them could only express their resentment, and obediently acted according to Tang Cheng's orders.

The cans in Tang Cheng's backpack were opened one after another, and without the tools at hand, everyone could only pick a piece with a bayonet and swallow it, and they were about to meet the enemy, and the people who were left behind could not have enough body. Along the way, Tang Cheng strictly forbade them to make a fire, and canned meat without heating could not be considered delicious, but it was better to be unpleasant than not to eat it, and if you wanted to have a body to meet the Japanese army, you could only forcibly fill your stomach like this. Wiping the oil stains on the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, Tang Cheng carried his carbine and walked in the direction where the Japanese had fired before, "If you don't block the Japanese army, Mike and they won't have time to cross the river." ”

The first step to intercept the pursuers is naturally to arrange the mines first, and the direct company left too many traces after passing through the jungle, which was originally a means for Tang Cheng to lure the enemy, but now Tang Cheng does not want the Japanese army to find these traces, but it is an impossible task to completely eliminate these traces. Whether people or animals pass by in the jungle, they will leave some traces, footprints, broken plants, overturned leaves, and clothing fibers under thorns, these details are like magnifying dozens of times in the eyes of experienced people, like street signs in the city.

No matter how these traces were concealed, the two of them could see them at a glance, so Tang Cheng didn't dare to hope that the Japanese army wouldn't be able to see it, it was too risky. Therefore, Tang Cheng chose to go back a little along the route of the retreat of the direct company, and then arrange simple but effective mines around these traces. The trick mine laid by Tang Cheng is very simple, a wooden nail cut out with a short knife is used to fix it into the soil, and the grenade is buried in a place where the wooden nail is not willing, and the pull ring of the grenade is fixed on the wooden nail. As soon as the short-sighted pursuer touches the wooden nail or the grenade ring attached to the wooden nail, the thunder will explode.

The mines arranged in Tangcheng were not evenly laid, but were dense and sparse, and they were paved for a long distance along the route taken by the direct company, and then with the dice, they hid far away and waited for the Japanese army in the middle to appear first. According to the speed of the Japanese army's pursuit, the Japanese troops walking in the middle will appear first, Tang Cheng does not plan to march directly to the river crossing point after actively exposing himself, he plans to take the pursuing Japanese troops to make a few more turns, so that the trackers can not determine in advance where they want to cross the river, which brings convenience to Mike and them.

Tang Cheng didn't have to worry too much about the Japanese troops behind him at that time to bypass the treacherous section of the road and go straight or detour to the crossing point, after he took the initiative to expose his position, the Japanese troops who followed him would definitely only chase him around in the jungle, and would not go to the river in the direction of the retreat of the direct company at all.
