Chapter 45: A Soldier's Family Affair (10)
"Company commander, do you think Li Guangzu will make a false shot and run north first, but in fact, he has already secretly gotten on the southbound train?" Crowded in the wooden hut at the hunting spot, everyone was cooking a fire and talking at the same time.
"There hasn't been a car at all in the past few days, where does he have a car to get on. Hiding in the car in this weather, it is really going to freeze to death. Captain Qi Rui answered everyone's questions. In winter, the minimum temperature in the United States and Central Province has reached about minus 10 degrees, and you dare not move when you hide in the carriage. If you don't dare to move, you will be frozen, or even frozen to death. After three winters in North America, Captain Qi Rui was fully aware of this.
It made sense for the soldiers to think about it, so they changed the question, "Li Guangzu won't commit suicide in fear of crime, right?" If he finds a place where no one is around, how can we find it if the snow is so thick. ”
Hearing this question, Captain Qi Rui's face became a little ugly. It's not that he has led his comrades to search one place after another in the past two days, and he has fully felt the horror of the winter snow. It was Captain Qi Rui who felt that his subordinates did not have the thinking of a field army at all.
After personally experiencing the battlefield, Captain Qi Rui's view is completely different from that of those who have never fought. It's easy to die on the battlefield, stand on the battlefield and don't move. It won't be long before they are killed by the enemy. The reason why he moved was not to die, but to live. If Li Guangzu really wanted to die after killing someone, he would stand in place and let people arrest him casually. That's the quickest way to die. Since he can run, it means that he doesn't want to die. Asking someone who doesn't want to die to commit suicide is really a difficult thing.
Although North America is known as the region most likely to have war, Captain Qi Rui felt the atmosphere of peace that filled it with just a few words. Even a fleeing criminal will remind the soldiers of suicide, and this kind of warm thinking will not be able to stand it after going to the battlefield.
However, Captain Qi Rui did not criticize everyone, he personally went to the battlefield, personally killed the enemy, and personally commanded the troops to kill the enemy. After experiencing something like that, Captain Qi Rui felt the preciousness of peace. As long as you go to the battlefield, there is no place that is safe, the enemy will suddenly appear from unexpected places, and everyone must be nervous and ready for battle at any time. Recalling the battle in Ceylon, Captain Qi Rui only felt that the battle was too childish. The enemy in North America was far more fierce than the British and their colonies, and if they had maintained such a mentality, God knows how much the troops would have suffered in the brutal battles.
However, Captain Qi Rui couldn't say for sure, "Don't worry, Li Guangzu will not commit suicide." It is true that Lee Kwangjo will not commit suicide, and he may not survive in this harsh natural environment. If nothing else, what does Lee Kwangjo eat for a living? There was no chance of him finding food in the winter fields. If you accidentally die while hunting, it is really very difficult to find.
"We must act quickly, and we must take advantage of the heavy snow to find Li Guangzu before he can't move." Captain Qi Rui gave the order. At this time, he found that collective action is very similar to military action, if there is a small army of the enemy on the opposite side, Captain Qi Rui will also give the same order, when his own number and equipment are superior, the first priority is to find the enemy first, keep an eye on the enemy.
It was much easier to discover Lee Kwang-jo than the troops thought. Qi Rui was most worried that Li Guangzu would not live at the hunting spot, but would use the snow survival techniques taught by the army to build a snow hut or something. It was a technology developed by the Eskimos, and although the temperature inside the house was around freezing, there was a snow room in the middle of a vast forest, where so many people could search the forest. When the snow is thick enough and carefully observed, Li Guangzu can calmly spend the winter from the forest to the uninhabited hunting spot. In addition, the igloo can also be used as a hunting base, so if you can't return to the hunting spot that day, you can spend the night in the igloo.
But lying on the thick snow, it can be clearly seen through the telescope that Li Guangzu came out of the house at the hunting spot with his neck bent and carried a few pieces of firewood into the house. And the smoke coming out of the chimney is even more distant to let people know that there are people in the hunting spot.
"Be careful, walk around slowly, and make sure there's no one in the house. In case there are people, don't let this kid jump over the wall and take hostages. Captain Qi Rui gave the order.
The platoon commander volunteered to go to investigate, and after a while, he came back as quietly as possible, "Report to the company commander, he is the only one in the house." But I saw that the door was closed very tightly, and I guess something was used to resist it. ”
"Then let's set up an ambush first, and block him when he comes out again." Captain Qi Rui gave a new order.
"Didn't he just get firewood?" The platoon commander didn't want to wait too long outside.
Captain Qi Rui continued to analyze: "Look at the smoke, Li Guangzu, this kid is afraid of the cold. That bit of firewood can burn for as long as it lasts. Moreover, the comrades at the station said that Li Guangzu asked for half a sheep from them, and he must have eaten it all in the past few days. There was no food in his stomach, so he had to make the house warmer. ”
Everyone marched, searched, cold and tired. After listening to the company commander's analysis, he could be considered to understand. The platoon commander scolded in a low voice: "This kid is quite good at enjoying it!" ”
After all, you have to do what you have to do. Quietly approaching the wooden house, everyone continued to hide in the snow. If you don't move in the ice and snow, it's really cold to death. Although they only waited for less than an hour, everyone felt more painful than three or four hours in the summer.
Just then, there was the sound of the door opening. Li Guangzu shrunk his neck again and came out of the house to get firewood, which was built by the wall, and as soon as the platoon commander saw Li Guangzu, he immediately jumped up from the snow and pounced on him.
When Li Guangzu went out, he looked wilted, and it could be seen that the platoon commander pounced on him, and he had a spirit as soon as he was excited. Seeing that the platoon commander grabbed his military coat, Li Guangzu directly pushed his arms back and rushed forward. Soon, the platoon commander grabbed only the military coat in his hand. Li Guangzu swooped forward like a frightened rabbit.
However, at this time, comrades in other positions had already surrounded them, blocking the door of the house and blocking Li Guangzu's escape route. Li Guangzu was surrounded by another pile of firewood, and he picked up the woodcutter on the stack.
When the comrades of the troops saw that Li Guangzu was going to resist, everyone raised their rifles one after another, and the muzzles of the black holes were pointed at Li Guangzu.
Seeing that he had no possibility of escaping, Li Guangzu suddenly put the knife on his neck. He shouted, "You ......, don't come." Don't come here, come here again, I'll kill myself to show you! ”
The comrades were all stunned, they didn't expect Li Guangzu to come to this hand.
"Phew!" Captain Qi Rui spat loudly, he took two steps forward and pointed a pistol at Li Guangzu, "If you really have a kind, after you kill someone, you should be arrested, and if you want to kill someone, someone will do it." You're just afraid of being killed by others now, but you don't want to die! ”
These words knocked out a lot of Li Guangzu's arrogance, and he shouted almost in despair: "Company commander...... You're right, it's a death anyway, so it's better for me to die myself! It's kind of a pleasure. ”
Captain Qi Rui strode forward, saying as he walked, "Okay! You're going to kill yourself. ”
Li Guangzu saw Captain Qi Rui keep approaching, he wanted to swing his knife to scare, but he was worried that the soldiers would shoot. He could only shout: "Don't force me!" Don't push me! "He kept backing away.
At this time, the soldiers who went around to the back pounced and pressed Li Guangzu into the snow.
Captain Qi Rui walked up to the subdued Li Guangzu and spat again, "Phew! You put the knife against your neck, you show me a suicide! Coward! ”
