Chapter 270: Poor Kuroki

?“ Senior, how long are we going to stay here, I have lice all over my body, I really want to eat hot rice balls and take a hot bath now" Kuroki leaned sideways on the trunk of the tree and shouted to Ono on another tree. "Green" He and Ono are both from Osaka, and the two of them studied in the same school before joining the army, but Ono is one grade higher than Kuroki, so Kuroki has always called Ono Senpai, even though Kuroki is now a soldier, and Ono is still an ordinary soldier.

"Shut up, idiot, do you want us to be discovered? There is still half an hour before the change of guard, and then listen to your nagging when the guard changes, now it's best to shut your mouth first" Ono reprimanded Kuroki quite helplessly, it is said that as an ordinary soldier, he should not reprimand Kuroki, but they are now on a forest guard mission, if the officers who come to check the post find that they are chatting, they will be severely punished. Ono didn't want to turn his dinner today into a piece of banana root because of Kuroki's involvement, Ono's unit was on guard duty on the periphery of Myitkyina, and the officers found soldiers who violated military discipline, and they usually didn't punish them in person, but just canceled their dinner and replaced it with a piece of banana root that was difficult to swallow.

"Okay, I know, senior, you really like to preach" Kuroki changed his posture boringly, the taste of being tied to the tree by a rope was really uncomfortable, it was only half a day's work, Kuroki felt that he was about to fall apart, and he began to look forward to the time to pass faster, and he could quickly change the guard and return to the camp to sleep well. There were 12 other Japanese soldiers who had the same idea as Kuroki, and the Japanese soldiers who were also tied to the trunk of a tree with ropes were all soldiers of Kuroki's squad.

This is a common method used by the Japanese army in the jungles of Burma, where soldiers with weapons on their backs are tied to branches or trunks of trees to guard the mountains and forests, and as long as the enemy is found in the mountains and forests, they can rely on the high ground to raid the enemy army. In this way, the Japanese army once pursued the expeditionary force through half of the mountains and forests of northern Burma, and repeatedly succeeded in a hundred attempts. At present, the expeditionary force that counterattacked Burma has broken through the Hukang Valley and is gathering forces to attack the Mong Gong River Valley, and Myitkyina, which is located behind Mong Gong, has also begun to prepare for battle, and Kuroki's squadron has been sent to guard the northern flank of Myitkyina.

"It's coming, the changing of the guard is finally here" Kuroki, who was bored and looked around with a telescope, saw a group of Japanese soldiers coming over from the lens, and the one in the lead was Suzuki, who he knew, and it seemed that today's suffering was coming to an end, Kuromi began to be happy, gesturing to the soldiers on the trees next to him. This is the person who notified everyone that the guard change is coming, Ono and the other soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately there was no situation when he was serving as a police post, and this time there was no abnormal smoothness after all. Loosening the rope tied to his body, Kuroki, who was in a good mood, slipped down the rope and gathered together with everyone to wait for Suzuki and his party, who came to change the guard.

"Ha, you can't wait to come down" Suzuki is a cheerful guy, greeted Kuroki warmly, and threw his half pack of cigarettes to Kuroki, anyway, you can't smoke after going up the tree, instead of being soaked in sweat, it's better to cheapen Kuroki. "Let's go back, the camp has caught a wild boar today, I guess if you go faster, you can eat a few pieces of meat, it tastes very good" Suzuki began to grab the rope and climb up the tree, not forgetting to tell Kuroki about the meat eaten in the camp today.

"Then we really have to go faster, if we go back late, those guys will eat all the meat" Kuroki took a cigarette in his mouth, and led the way in the direction from which Suzuki came, but they had been tied by ropes for a long time, and this time they were not walking very fast. Kuroki finished smoking a cigarette, and they were just a hill away, just out of Suzuki's sight. "I'm tired, let's rest here, drink some water and then go" Kuroki sat on the edge of a mountain stream and didn't leave, Ono and the others shook their heads helplessly, every time Kuroki this guy walked here, he had to soak his feet in the mountain stream, which had become a routine.

"Then I'll go fetch water, and you guys pay attention to your surroundings" As the only veteran in the class besides Kuroki, Ono volunteered to carry a few kettles to the upper reaches of the mountain stream to fetch water, anyway, he has been doing this, Kuroki has never cared about these things. "Ouch, it's really comfortable, you can also take a dip" Kuroki took off his shoes and socks, and put his feet into the stream, the cold stream made Kuroki shiver, and then a chill ran down his legs and straight to his body, until his head, Kuroki was stimulated by the cold stream and couldn't help but sit on the side of the mountain stream.

After each change of guard, Kuroki would soak his feet in the cold stream water when he passed by, not only to relieve fatigue, but more importantly, to keep himself a cool head, if it wasn't for his cool head, how could he have crossed Ono to become the youngest soldier in the squadron. Fighting a war is not only about courage, but also about having a cool head, and Yano, the current squadron leader of Kuroki, admires Kuroki very much and believes that he will definitely become the youngest warrant officer in the squadron in the near future.

In his class, even Ono, who is a senior, doesn't know Kuroki very well, and the soldiers think that Kuroki is a giggling guy, even during the sentry process, he jokes with Ono, and he is really a leader who gets along very well. In fact, they are all wrong, Kuroki is a very scheming guy, usually in front of everyone is some disguise, the real Kurogi is ruthless, there are no less than 20 Chinese soldiers killed with bayonets in his hands, Yano is an officer who was born as a teacher, so Kurogi who likes him pretends to be a big grinning and has no city to please Yano, just so that he can become an officer as soon as possible.

"Why hasn't Ono come back since he went to fetch water?" Kuroki muttered in his heart, according to the usual speed, Ono should have come back to fetch water at this time. There is a small waterhole in the upper reaches of the mountain stream, where Ono often fetches water, and it is not very far from the place where he soaks his feet in the black wood. "Inoue, you go with Makino to see if Ono has caught the prey, you go to help" Inoue with big eyes smiled and led Makino up the mountain stream, they also expected Ono to catch any wild things, so that they didn't have to go back to the camp and those fierce veterans to grab wild boar.

Ten minutes passed, not only Ono Makino came back, but even Inoue and Makino, who had just gone to help, there was no news, Kuroki felt a little wrong, but this was the heavily defended perimeter of Myitkyina, and he still didn't believe that there would be a Shina person, so he sent two soldiers to check the situation again. If Kuroki could know in advance what was going to happen next, he would never have sent out all the soldiers behind him several times, and after the second batch of soldiers sent out did not hear from him, there were only 8 people left by Kuroki's side, and Kuroki had already begun to break out in a cold sweat at this time.

It's weird.,That's how Kurogi's mood is now.,Including Ono.,The five people who went up the mountain stream seemed to disappear out of thin air.,No news of the bird.。 Kuroki, who had had many encounters with guerrillas in China, realized the danger, he had encountered an ambush, and the other party was still a group of people who were good at ambushes, at least so far he had not noticed anything unusual around the mountain stream. Kuroki didn't jump out of the stream and flee into the mountains and forests right away, he couldn't mess with himself at this time, the muzzle of the hidden gun must have been aimed at him, and as long as he made a big move, he would definitely be knocked down by the whistling bullets.

"Kameda, Shigeru, you two also come to soak your feet, we can still talk" Kuroki seemed to easily turn his head and shouted the two soldiers closest to him, only he knew that his back had long been wet with sweat, and the hidden killing intention was a kind of torture for Kuroki, and it was also an oppression, and he was almost out of breath when he was forced. Kameda and Shiozawa didn't know that Kuroki was trying to use them as cover, so they just took off their shoes and socks and sat next to Kuroki, following Kuroki's example, leaning on the stones by the stream, enjoying a moment of peace and comfort.

"Do you two smoke?" Kuroki pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his jacket pocket and gestured towards Kameda, while the other soldiers sitting around the stream only turned their heads a few times and didn't come, their hands holding lit cigarettes. Kameda was very interested in the cigarette in Kuroki's hand, and seeing that Kuroki didn't mean to throw it over, he waded through the water and walked to Kuroki and reached out to pick it up, and at this moment, Kuroki suddenly shouted, "Enemy attack". Kameda was stunned by Kuroki's shouting, and at that moment, Kuroki sprang out of the stream with a quick movement, and went straight to the woods by the mountain stream with his bare feet.

However, at a distance of 7 or 8 meters, the mountain stream is only 7 or 8 meters away from Kuroki's favored forest, but this distance has become the last road that Kuroki has walked with his own legs in his life. "Collapse" "Collapse" "Collapse" The sound of a bowstring suddenly sounded in the grass on the other side of the mountain stream, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows flashing black light were shot out, rushing towards the Japanese soldiers who were stunned on the other side of the mountain stream because of Kuroki's shouting. Kuroki, who thought he was moving quickly, was not favored by his Amaterasu, and at least two crossbow arrows hit his body at the same time.

As Kuroki fell to the ground with the crossbow arrows on his body, the corner of his eye swept over the other soldiers, and it seemed that his hunch was right, this was a well-planned ambush, and the soldiers sitting around the stream smoking had fallen like himself, and no one was spared, including Kameda and Shigezawa, who had been tricked into the stream by themselves. At least 20 sharp crossbow arrows were shot from the grass on the other side of the mountain stream, and there were only 9 people on his side, which means that everyone was shot with at least two arrows.

Kuroki was not killed by the crossbow arrow, but the crossbow arrow that was shot deep into his back made it difficult for him to breathe, and he couldn't even move his hands and feet. "Cough, cough" Mao Ze, who was lying on his back in the stream, suddenly coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, and his body began to twitch, it seemed that the crossbow bolt did not kill him, and he woke up after a short shock. "Collapse" and "collapse" were the sound of two bowstrings, and two crossbow arrows from the grass flew into Mao Ze's chest, this time Mao Ze was lifeless, his body stopped twitching just now, and there was no movement in the stream.

Kuroki's body couldn't move for the time being, but his hearing was still there, and his eyes could still move and see. At least three of the soldiers who were shot by the crossbow arrows by the mountain stream were still alive, but they did not dare to move, for fear of ending up in the same fate as Maoze. According to the Japanese infantry drills, when they were resting here in the mountain stream, the rifles were set together, next to a stone not far from Kurogi, but Kurogi, who was limp on the ground, was now like a dead man, and he couldn't get the rifle at all.

"Brush, brush" There was a sound in the grass on the other side of the mountain stream, and Kuroki knew that it was the sound of the people who ambushed them walking through the grass, and turned his eyes slightly to see that more than a dozen grass balls stood up in the grass on the other side of the mountain stream, grass balls camouflaged with thatch. Kurogi's pupils contracted sharply, and he knew by looking at the military boots on his grass feet that they were damn the Shina people, and it seemed that it was right for them to strengthen the defense of Myitkyina's periphery, and the Shina people had really touched here.

The grass balls crossed the mountain stream and began to stuff a clump of thatch into the mouths of each soldier, whether dead or alive, Kuroki did not know what they were doing, only that he had also been stuffed with thatch, and then stripped of all his clothes like the others. The black wood and the corpses were placed in a clearing by the mountain stream, which gave him a chance to see the people who ambushed him up close. The grass balls had already taken off their thatched clothes, and Kuroki was surprised by their youth, almost all of them were in their 20s, and everyone was shaved and swarthy, and their bodies were strong, which was different from the Chinese soldiers Kuroki had seen in China.

A young man who looked like an officer took something out of his collar and put it in his mouth and blew it a few times, and a crisp birdsong came out of his mouth. After a few minutes, the same birdsong sounded in the opposite mountain forest, and it seemed that the ambushers still had companions, Kuroki's eyes widened as much as he could, he wanted to know how many of these ambushers there were.

Before Kuroki lost consciousness due to massive blood loss, he finally got his wish to see all the ambushers, and out of the woods on the other side of the mountain stream came a large number of people, at least six or seven hundred people. All the American equipment, the American uniform, the yellow skin, a reinforced battalion of Shina soldiers, this was Kuroki's last thought before he lost consciousness forever, and until he took his last breath, he didn't know where these Shina soldiers came from. ~ To see the first ad-free, please go to "Green"
