Chapter 4: Brothers (Nine Ups)

Ran all day against the cold wind. The big guys are exhausted to the extreme. Suddenly attacked by enemy troops. Dengshi was caught off guard. Especially those former horse thieves of the independent battalion. Because of the lack of training. In the first round of the enemy's attack, it was a mess. Some immediately hid their bodies on the other side of the saddle and ran wildly. Some of them pulled out the sabers they had just been assigned to in a panic, ready to fight the enemy to the death. There are also some extremely uncontested ones. Simply roll straight off the ground. Hold your head with both hands. Wait for the enemy to come and take the prisoners.

The partisan fighters behaved slightly better than the brethren of the separate battalion. But also very limited. In addition to the machine gunner, Da Zhou quickly picked up the Czech. With three consecutive point shots, a crooked handle two hundred meters away was knocked out of the way. Everyone else is shooting indiscriminately and unorganized. Although it halted the offensive of the attackers slightly. On his side, four more people were knocked off their horses by bullets from the opposite side. Pour on the cold grass. Die with a grievance or everlasting regret.

"Da-da-da-da. Da da da. Da ......." was another piercing burst of machine gun. On the other side of the line. There are also large groups of puppet armies. Holding a half-new three-eight big cover and an ugly crooked handle. Pouring fire on the partisans and brethren of the separate battalion.

The abdomen and back are attacked. The fighters grew more and more confused. There is simply no way to organize an effective counterattack. Fortunately, Zhao Tianlong woke up quickly. Raised his hand and blew the head of a puppet Manchurian leader. Dial the yellow fat horse. Turn around and run the way you came. While running. shouted loudly. Don't fall in love. Turned. Rush out from the road you came. There are no enemies over there. There's no enemy over there."

Although I was already anxious and my eyes were on fire. Passing by Zhang Songling's side. He still didn't forget to pick up the reins of the Great White Horse. Zhang Songling, who had already been burned unconscious, and another guerrilla who was holding him were protected by his side. The side away from enemy fire.

"Flush back. U-turn and flush back. Wait for this breath to come. Then settle accounts with the enemy." Get Zhao Tianlong's reminder and demonstration. Zhou Hei Carbon also quickly gathered his mind from the shock. Raise two box cannons. Launch a counterattack on the enemy with a bow left and right. While leading his brothers to retreat along the way.

Vice Captain Lu Feng is too old. The reaction was half a beat slower than that of Zhao Tianlong and Zhou Heicarbon. before turning the mount. was hit in the left shoulder by a bullet. His body shook. Tighten the horse's belly with both feet. With his right hand, he pulled out the Walter pistol that Fu Zuoyi had given him. Beat one of the puppet soldiers who tried to rush up and capture him into a rolling gourd.

Walther pistols have beautiful shapes and crisp shooting sounds. It immediately attracted the attention of many puppet soldiers. Including the puppet army that has been chasing the Oriental white horse before. They also turned their heads. Re-identify the goals that can make you stand on your feet.

The machine gunner Da Zhou was furious. Turn Czech." Burst, burst, burst" is another three series of point shots. Clear the barricades for your captain. Then he led several other partisans. Clamp Lao Lu and his war horse between the mounts of the group. One side bullet to open the way. While quickly moving closer to the others.

It was at this time. Yang Xiaofang, the machine gunner under Zhou Hei Carbon, finally relieved a little. Pick up another brand new Czech. Pulled the trigger at the enemy. His marksmanship is far inferior to that of Da Zhou. There is no obvious rhythm at all. Although frightened, the pursuers have to lie down and dodge. The real results are very few. He scared the mount under his crotch and kicked it. Nearly knocked him off the saddle.

"Brute. Coward. Waste snacks." Yang Xiaofang shouted angrily. Had to free a hand. Go pacify the crotch mount. There was a pause in the shooting. The puppet army that had already rushed to the front saw an opportunity. More than 20 rods and 38 styles are raised at the same time. He was beaten into a honeycomb with men and horses.

"Old Yang...", a brother from the independent battalion who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead jumped up. Trying to hug Yang Xiaofang's body. Dozens of sinful bullets staggered. Beat him to the spot and spun him around three times. Open your hands. Lying on his back in a pool of blood.

"Lao Tzu fought with you." Another brother from the Independent Battalion, wounded and dismounted, jumped up from among the corpses. Holding a Japanese grenade in each hand. Shouting and pounced on the swarming Manchukuo puppet army. The puppet army didn't expect the opponent to be so brave. Frightened, they got out of the way. The brothers of the independent battalion were amused by the timid actions of the puppet army. Knock the grenade against each other. Rushed into the most crowded places.

"Boom." Smoke and flames soar into the air. Blowing up the stumps of minced flesh in the sky. More than a dozen puppet soldiers became martyrs. Dragged by the hero's soul to the Yellow Spring. The puppet soldiers, who were lucky not to be affected by the explosion, just straightened up tremblingly. There was another loud cry in my ears." Brethren. Chinese New Year. Don't forget to pour a bowl of wine for little Batu." A guerrilla who was knocked off his horse by a stray bullet. Holding a couple of smoking Japanese grenades. Stumbled into the middle of them.

"Boom."" Boom."" Boom." There were several earth-shattering loud bangs. The hero catches up with his comrades with a smile. Under the Nine Springs. They will gather a hundred thousand banners. Sweep away all the injustices of Hades.

The army of the puppet Manchurians was composed of bandits and the former Northeast Army. Morale and combat effectiveness are already very low. After being counterattacked twice in a row. Immediately dispelled the illusion of capturing the captives and asking their Japanese masters for credit. Under the command of a Japanese "instructor" . Readjust tactics. Concentrated fire from behind and from the flanks pursued the partisans and the backs of the brethren of the separate battalion. Trying to rely on the superiority of troops. Annihilate the prey that has fallen into the trap in one fell swoop. (Note 1)

The enemy is outnumbered. Zhou Heitan and Lu Feng could only command the brothers to fight and retreat. From the thin day to the end of the day, I can't see my fingers. Only with the help of the cover of the night. Temporarily got rid of the pursuers.

I found a sheltered place to count the number of people. Both the partisans and the separate battalions lost more than half. Almost all of the remaining brothers were wounded. I can't muster the strength to fight the pursuers anymore.

Fortunately, the puppet Manchurian minions had a limited grasp of the geography of the vicinity. It may not be able to catch up for the time being. Everyone can take a breath of relief. Gather together to discuss the next course of action.

"The Lama Ditch may have fallen." As the oldest in the team. He is also the most experienced in combat. Deputy Captain Lu Feng sighed. Be the first to speak." Otherwise. Take Captain Wang's as a person. I will never tolerate a little devil setting fire right under my nose."

"Maybe Captain Wang, they're going out to attack the Japanese cantonment. I didn't have time to get back." Heavy Da Zhou is slightly more optimistic about the situation. Thought about it. Retort in a low voice.

As a backbone of the team. When encountering the enemy this evening. The Czechs in his hands played an extremely huge role. Therefore, it has also won the respect of all the survivors. It doesn't matter if it makes sense or not. can make a lot of people nod their heads.

Zhao Tianlong didn't think that the redbeard he had always admired would be taken over by the enemy so easily. Thought about it. Echo Da Zhou's opinion in a low voice on the side." I also think Captain Wang shouldn't be in the camp. He promised to go and help the independent battalion out of the siege. Whether it's going to besiege Wei to save Zhao. Or directly attack the back of the little devil. It's impossible to come back so quickly."

"Yes." Deputy Captain Lu Feng has never been a stubborn person. In times like this, you need to work together. I know how to listen to different ideas with an open mind." Follow the day of our departure. Captain Wang, they sent troops from the camp at the same time. Seven days. It's just enough to walk a round trip. with his character. It is impossible that things have not yet seen results. I'll come back with my men first."

"I don't know if the siege of the independent battalion has been lifted." There was a guerrilla surnamed Han who was covering a wound on his leg. Asked in a low voice. It was a penetrating wound. Thirty-eight big gayer super penetrating blessing. The bullet is not stuck in the body. If you can get treatment in time. A month or two at most. The wound will be able to heal.

"I should have solved it. Otherwise. How can the puppet army free up their hands to make a special trip to the land to block us." Zhao Tianlong put down the unconscious Zhang Songling in his arms. Get up and help the guys with their wounds. The powder that the guerrillas carried with them was prepared with the help of Old Scar. The effect of hemostasis is obvious. The pain-relieving effect is also immediate. But if the bandaging method is not appropriate. It will seriously affect the last healing time of the wound. So. It had to be pointed out by someone who was very experienced with this thing.

"If the devil and the puppet army were not originally targeting the independent battalion in the city. It's our guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army." Another guerrilla fighter surnamed Wei had a whim. Leaned forward and asked loudly.

Hear this. Everyone was stunned. Qi Qi turned his gaze to Zhou Hei Carbon. No way. The Black Rock Village was laid down by an independent battalion. Right now, their strength is also the strongest within a radius of hundreds of miles. Either way. should be the first target of the little devils."

Although stared at by many pairs of eyes. Zhou Hei Carbon is like sleepwalking. Silence. Until the shoulder was gently pushed by the brother next to him. I was stunned. Blankly responded." At this time. What's the use of saying this. Think about where to go next. There are enemies everywhere ahead. Even if the lama ditch has not fallen. Can we go back?"

"That week the battalion commander thought. Where should we go for a break first?" Vice Captain Lu Feng heard that Zhou Hei Carbon was depressed. Deliberately use words to attract his attention.

Most of his brothers are trapped in Heishi Village, and their fate is unknown. There are only a dozen or so left to stay by his side as a spark for a comeback. Zhou Hei Carbon even if he no longer has a heart and lungs. At this time, I was a little overwhelmed. glanced at Lu Feng. smiled wryly and said, "Where else can I go. Detour north. Go drill a nest in the sand. As long as you don't get buried by the storm in the desert. We'll all have the day to come back sooner or later."

"What about the fires in the steppe. We can't watch the little devils burn down all the pastures in Siqin's name. But I didn't help at all." Zhao Tianlong can't stand the decadence of Zhou Hei Carbon. Turn your head. Loud rebuttal.

"When is it? You still patronize your own woman." Zhou Hei Carbon is a belly of evil fire can be sent nowhere. Jump up immediately. Shoot back loudly." Think about yourself first. It's just a few people around us. Sensei said to help put out the fire. It's to meet the puppet army again tonight. They may not be able to escape the heavens of life."

"If you don't want to go, just say it. I went with the partisan brethren. I don't believe it. Among so many herdsmen under Si Qin's rule. I can't find one or two unwilling .......," Zhao Tianlong also jumped up. -for-tat with Zhou Black Carbon. I didn't wait for a word to be finished. He slammed his mouth shut. Keep your head up. Look straight at the sky.

Pitch black night sky. The north wind doesn't know when it has died down. A few flakes of snow the size of goose feathers fell. Falling on people's faces. Cool to the heart.

Note 1: Instructors. After the Japanese annexed the three northeastern provinces. In order to cover your ears and steal the bell. With Pu Yi as a puppet. Manchukuo was founded. The army of Manchukuo was ostensibly led by traitors. The actual control is in the hands of Japanese instructors and consultants. Therefore, every important battle. The instructor will immediately take over the command of the team.
