Chapter 246: Old Cannon's Choice
? The old cannon was depressed, and Zhao Zhi was trapped in a minefield, less than 10 meters from the bottom of the slope. If it was at a distance of 10 meters in normal times, it would be a matter of a few heels at most, but now that Zhao Zhi was suppressed in that crater by the enemy's heavy machine gun, he didn't dare to show his head at all, let alone do anything about somersaults.
The two snipers on the cliff kept killing the enemy heavy machine gunners, but the enemy was not slow to react, and after losing several machine gunners in quick succession, they somehow got a few steel plates from there to block the front of the machine guns. The machine gunner reverses the direction of the shot through the hole in the steel plate, and there is no way for the sniper rifle's bullet to hold the steel plate. And the enemy troops in the supply point did not take the initiative to attack, so they hid behind the steel plate and kept shooting with machine guns, it seems that they are determined to suppress Zhao Zhi who hid in the crater, and they still want to catch it alive.
"If Lao Tzu has a grenadier, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you little devils" The old cannon lying on the cliff punched the rock in frustration. The original battle plan was only a surprise attack, in order to bring more ammunition, the old artillery did not bring grenadiers, if he had known that it would be like this, the old artillery said that he would also bring grenadiers. Almost all the people and things on the cliff were driven away by the old artillery, and only the assault team of the old artillery was still waiting to pick up Zhao Zhi and the two snipers below.
Zhao Zhi didn't know that the old cannon was worried about him, and at this time he was lying on his stomach in the crater, desperately lowering his body and smoking. Fortunately, it was not far from the crater opened by the mine, otherwise Zhao Zhi would have been beaten into a sieve by the heavy machine gun, even so, Zhao Zhi's waist was still grazed by the bullet, and he was bleeding nonstop. It's not that Zhao Zhi can't bandage his wounds, but he gave his first aid kit to Kanyama Kazuo, but he didn't have a first aid kit.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" You have already reached the bottom of the slope, you have been to the submachine gunner shouted Zhao Zhi without giving up, the Japanese heavy machine guns were strange, most of them were aimed at Zhao Zhi's side, but the three people who stayed at the bottom of the slope were very safe, at least there were no machine gun bullets to scatter them. After a rough thought, the three of them came to a conclusion that their commander must have been suppressed in that crater by the Japanese machine guns, otherwise why did the Japanese machine guns keep blocking that crater?
"Fortunately, I can't die for the time being" Zhao Zhi replied with a tuft of voice, accidentally lying too low and sucking a mouthful of soil, choking Zhao Zhi coughed again and again, and the Japanese machine gun was splashed with a burst of bullets, splashing a lot of ash on the edge of the crater. "Dog, wait for Lao Tzu to go back and bombard you with a cannon" Zhao Zhi vented his dissatisfaction viciously, but he was thinking of countermeasures in his heart. It has been another half an hour since the first gunshot, but less than half of the people in the supply point have come out, and the rest have gone, so don't they care?
The answer is naturally no, Zhao Zhi, who is familiar with the character and combat style of the Japanese army, knows that the Japanese commander of the supply point will definitely not give up. Early in the morning, someone made a fuss in his own camp, and no one could swallow this breath, not to mention that the commander of the supply point was a Japanese who was sure to take revenge. Thinking of this, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, if he was blocked by the Japanese army under the cliff, wouldn't he force himself to abandon his hard-earned radio station and prisoners to forcibly break through, this trip would not be in vain.
"Damn, I almost forgot that I still have 4 grenades" Zhao Zhi was burned by the cigarette butt handle, and when he leaned over and pulled the cigarette butts that fell off his body, he realized that there were still 4 grenades hanging on his waist. Picking off all the 4 grenades and placing them in front of him in turn, Zhao Zhi cautiously aimed at the path a few meters away. There is less than 3 meters between the crater and the trail, and it only takes a few steps to step over, Zhao Zhi estimates that if there is a mine, it will look like there is one, and he wants to see if he can use a grenade to detonate the mine.
"Boom" The grenade thrown by Zhao Zhi exploded, and before the smoke dissipated, an explosion was heard several times louder than the grenade, and a mine was detonated. Without waiting for the smoke from the mine explosion to disperse, Zhao Zhilisuo threw the remaining three grenades out in turn, but in the opposite direction, he didn't want to be hit by other detonated mine fragments when he rushed out of the crater. "Boom", "Boom", "Boom" three explosions sounded one after another, and Zhao Zhi carried his submachine gun and ran out of the crater quickly under the cover of smoke and went straight to the trail.
The machine guns in the fence wall went off again, but because of the smoke, the machine gunners only pulled the trigger, not even knowing where their bullets were going. "Boom" "Boom" From time to time, mines were exploded by bullets from heavy machine guns, and the minefield was full of smoke and flying mine fragments, but it was too late, and Zhao Zhi had already slid down the slope with a roll, intact. "Don't fight, let's go, let's go, when the smoke clears, we won't be able to go up" Zhao Zhi hurriedly grabbed a rope and tied it around his waist, the two snipers and the submachine gunner glanced at each other, and they were also anxious to tie the rope to themselves.
The slope is about 20 meters long, and there is a person tied to each of the 4 ropes that hang down, and the impatient old cannon who has been waiting for a long time is desperately pulling the rope on the cliff, and in an instant, Zhao Zhi and them are dragged up the cliff like dead pigs. "Old cannon, you dog's light, Lao Tzu was not killed by their bullets, and he was about to be dragged to death by you" After Zhao Zhi was dragged up the cliff, before he could breathe, he was carried by the old cannon and a soldier and ran violently. Zhao Zhi, who was caught off guard, was directly dragged down by the two, and the dirty military pants had been hung in many places by the dead branches of the bushes on the ground.
"You shut up Lao Tzu and follow with him, or Lao Tzu will shave you with big ears" The old cannon glared at Zhao Zhi viciously, and Zhao Zhi, who was angry, only rolled his eyes. The wishful thinking of the Japanese army in the supply point, how could a veteran soldier like Lao Cannon not see it, everything was put down the cliff, and only Zhao Zhi and the four of them were left. Now that the people are safely up, all that remains is to safely jump out of the encirclement of the Japanese army, and the only way to escape is to speed up, otherwise it will be a dead end.
Running and running the old cannon felt that Zhao Zhi who was being held by him was a little abnormal, and the whole person began to soften and kept falling to the ground, at this time Zhao Zhi would not joke with himself, the old cannon stopped and turned his head to look at Zhao Zhi. I don't know if I don't look at it, I was startled, Zhao Zhi was already closed his eyes at this time, his face was pale and even his lips were bloodless, and then he looked at Zhao Zhi's body, half of his body was stained red with blood, and there was a long blood line behind him, which was all blood flowing down Zhao Zhi's trouser legs.
"You're fucking dead, huh? Can't you say you're hurt? "The old cannon was in a hurry, put Zhao Zhiping on the ground, tore open Zhao Zhi's military uniform and looked for the wound." Get out, you all hurry down, just leave a few first-aid kits for Lao Tzu, hurry up, don't rub it" tore open a pack of hemostatic powder, the old gunner hurriedly sprinkled on the wound on Zhao Zhi's waist, and waved his hand to signal the others to hurry down the rope ladder to the bottom of the cliff.
The blood from the wound on Zhao Zhi's waist had been stopped by the old cannon, but it didn't hit the vital point, but it was torn open in the waist by a machine gun bullet, and it didn't hurt the bones and organs, but the excessive blood loss caused Zhao Zhi to temporarily fall into a coma. Wrapped the wound on Zhao Zhi's waist a few times with gauze, and the old cannon grabbed Zhao Zhi and carried it on his shoulder, Zhao Zhi's current condition did not expect him to be able to walk down the rope ladder by himself, but the old cannon could only carry him down the rope ladder one by one.
When the old cannon carried Zhao Zhi to the edge of the rope ladder, he could already see the Japanese soldiers who rushed out of the fence wall, and after several rounds of machine gun fire did not meet with a return fire, the Japanese troops in the fence finally couldn't bear it and rushed out on their own initiative. With a distance of about 200 meters and a 20-meter slope, and counting their caution, it would take only three minutes for the Japanese to rush up the cliff. The cliff is more than 30 meters high, and there are more than 90 rope steps in the rope ladder, and the old cannon carrying Zhao Zhi must finish these more than 90 rope steps within three minutes, otherwise he will die, but the old cannon's current situation is obviously impossible.
Submachine guns, grenades, steel helmets, spare ammunition, all the things that are not needed now but take up weight were thrown away by the old artillery, and they were thrown directly down the cliff, he couldn't carry these things anymore if he wanted to carry Zhao Zhi, and the old cannon finally left only a pistol as a precaution. The old cannon gritted his teeth, the horizontal flesh on his face had become a little hideous, and one of his hands wanted to protect Zhao Zhi, who was unconscious on his shoulder, and he could only grasp the rope with one hand and prepare to slide down the cliff.
It was too late to walk the rope ladder normally, and in his eagerness, the old cannon withdrew the ropes on the slope and connected them together, and he wanted to take Zhao Zhi to slide down the rope directly. The military uniform on the old cannon's body has been wrapped around his hands layer by layer, otherwise, after the old cannon grabs the rope and slides down, his hands will be useless. But even so, when the old cannon slipped halfway, he still felt that his hand was hot and painful.
The snipers waiting at the bottom of the cliff have already started shooting, and the Japanese army has already reached the cliff, and they are covering for Lao Cannon and Zhao Zhi. Less than 100 meters away, the submachine guns under the cliff can also hit the bullets on the cliff, which means that as long as the Japanese soldiers on the cliff dare to show their heads, they may be hit by the submachine gunners under the cliff.
The salvo of the submachine gun was spectacular, but the guys of the direct company had already played a different trick - alternating fire with automatic fire. This is the same as Zhao Zhi's first cover attack, the two submachine guns are divided into a firing section, before the submachine gun in this firing section has not run out of bullets, the other submachine guns are in a state of preparation, once the submachine gun in the first firing section runs out of bullets, then there is a submachine gun in the second firing section to continue firing. The submachine gunners came up with this method of firing in an effort to maintain the consistency of the shot, and to achieve the goal of suppressing the enemy's fire by continuing to fire.
The sound of submachine gun fire was incessant, the cliffs were filled with gray smoke and sparks, and the fire coverage of automatic weapons was by no means comparable to that of bolt-action rifles. The uninterrupted bullets completely suppressed the Japanese army, and the Japanese soldiers who were in a hurry to chase the enemy did not bring machine guns at all, so they had to lie on the cliff and watch the old cannon slide down the cliff little by little, and then carry Zhao Zhi out of here safe and sound, out of their line of sight.
The old gun's hand was very painful, but he didn't dare to stop, and as soon as he slid down the cliff, he carried Zhao Zhi and ran away along the mark left by the machete, and the few submachine gunners who left cover followed closely behind with two wooden boxes. The machete only took away three wooden boxes and prisoners, and he had to go first, because of Daguo, Zhao Zhi did not come back, Daguo was extremely irritable, only if he had a machete, Daguo could still hear some of it, so he had to go first, and go first with Daguo.
"Old cannon, you put me down on a dog day" Zhao Zhi had actually woken up a long time ago, but it was still sliding down on Lao Cannon's shoulder. Zhao Zhi didn't dare to move, he was afraid that he would affect the balance of the old cannon, and both of them accidentally fell. Zhao Zhi woke up, the old cannon didn't have the joy he should have, he just changed Zhao Zhi's posture, moved Zhao Zhi behind his back, and became Zhao Zhi's temporary mount. It's not the first time that the old cannon has carried Zhao Zhi, but there has never been such a danger as this time, and the Japanese army that pursued to the cliff came a little earlier, and both the old cannon and Zhao Zhi might die on the cliff.
Although it is said that it is temporarily separated from the pursuit of the Japanese army, the half of the enemy troops that have not been seen are a thorn in the heart of the old artillery, in case they really bypass the cliff and block the front, what can they do? Lao Pao was thinking about countermeasures while running, and Zhao Zhi had always been in the direct company, but now Zhao Zhi was extremely weak, and Lao Pao had to use his brain to find a way, otherwise not only himself and Zhao Zhi, but even the brothers behind him would be in danger.
has no culture, can't speak foreign words, and the relatives at home have long since died, but in addition to being able to fight, Lao Cannon really doesn't know what else he can do. The officer of the old artillery was barely doing it, if it weren't for Zhao Zhi's tricks when he reported his military merits, I'm afraid the old artillery would still be just a big soldier. Lao Pao is a rough man, but he knows a truth, to be a man, to be a man of conscience, the grace of dripping water should be reciprocated.
Thinking about it, when he didn't have a trick in his heart, Lao Pao finally made up his mind, since Zhao Zhi regarded himself as a brother, then he was accompanied by his life to save Zhao Zhi's thoughtfulness. The formation of the retreat had changed somewhat, with the thatched snipers walking in the front, the submachine gunners carrying the boxes following the snipers, and the old guns carrying Zhao Zhi and the other submachine gunners walking in the rear. The only advantage of this is that when he is ambushed, the old cannon can flee with Zhao Zhi on his back in the first time, at least that's what he thinks. ~
