Chapter 363: Which of You Has Killed a Wolf II
Fushimi Kiyoshi and the third child also saw it. The two of them weren't too scared, they just couldn't make up their minds. How can you be afraid of a wolf with a gun in your hand.
However, this is already the area under the de facto control of the Soviet army. If you shoot, you will be detected by the Soviet army. After shooting and killing the wolf, the four of them will run back with their lives, and it is not certain whether they can escape in this way.
The third child's eyes were rolling wildly. He was thinking about the chances of escaping after the shot. That way you don't have to do any bullshit tasks.
"We're going to walk forward like this, okay?" Fushimi Kiyoshi asked. He asked Xiaobao. He also knew that at this time, neither Hamaguchi Ryosuke nor the third child could be relied on.
"No, it's better to kill." Xiaobao looked at Ryosuke Hamaguchi, who was shaking on the plow, and said.
The wolf also stood still, the cold wind blew on it, but it was like a wood carved clay sculpture, and its two shining eyes looked fixedly at the four people in front of it.
"If he barks, he doesn't know how many wolves will come running." Xiaobao continued.
"What then?" Fushimi Kiyoshi asked. You can't shoot, you can't escape, you can't run away, and people must not run as fast as wolves.
"Which of you has killed a wolf?" Xiaobao still asked calmly.
"Kill or not, I've eaten wolf meat, it's not delicious." The third said. He's made up his mind now, he'd better shoot, and he'll be the first to slip away. He can run out in a dozen miles and half an hour. He doesn't care about anyone, especially if Fushimi Kiyoshi is dead!
"Then I'll do it." Xiaobao looked at the wolf frozen in place and said slowly. He stuck the pistol on his waist, picked up the cotton hand that had fallen on the ice, and put it on. With his left hand, he took off the dogskin hat and put it on the cotton hand of his right hand, pulled out the boning knife and walked slowly towards the wolf.
Fushimi Kiyoshi and the third child both looked at Xiaobao's every move in a daze. watched him walk towards the black shadow without hurrying.
Ryosuke Hamaguchi, who was lying on the plow, also turned his head with difficulty.
Xiaobao walked to a place seven or eight meters away from the wolf and stopped. The wolf's body suddenly fell, only its nose the size of a thumb's belly was moving, a hairy tree rose from its back, and its eyes flashed gray-green.
Xiaobao slowly raised his right hand, kicked his feet, and his body slid out on the ice. The right hand struck the wolf on the head.
The wolf opened its mouth to show two rows of white wolf teeth, and rushed forward to bite the dogskin hat in Xiaobao's right hand.
Xiaobao's right hand struggled to rise, and the wolf's head also rose. With a wave of his left hand, the boning knife slashed through the wolf's neck.
Only half a whimper came out, and the wolf fell to the ice as if it had been pulled out of its bones. Blood spurted out of his neck. The blood flowed onto the ice and froze instantly.
Waiting until the wolf was motionless, Xiaobao turned around and waved his hand to beckon a few people to come over.
"Hurry up and move the snow to cover the blood." Xiaobao bent down and dragged the wolf's tail and said.
The frightened Fushimi Kiyoshi and the third child hurriedly agreed to walk to the shore with Xiaobao.
The third child has also woken up now, and he has untied the sheet draped over his body and spread it on the ground. Hands and feet neatly pulled the snow on the riverside to the sheets.
Xiaobao simply dug a shallow pit and threw the wolf inside, and then kicked the snow to bury the wolf inside.
Fushimi Kiyoshi and the third child dragged the two corners of the sheet to the place where wolf blood was shed, and sprinkled the snow on the sheet.
Ryosuke Hamaguchi just watched from a distance as the three of them were busy. He also wanted to go up and help, but his hands and feet didn't listen.
All four of them accelerated their pace. Now it is the third child who takes the initiative to snatch the work of pulling the climbing plow.
Koho and Fushimi Kiyoshi Hamaguchi Ryosuke followed.
"You've worked in the Manchukuo Army before?" Fushimi Kiyoshi asked with a small smile.
"No, I've been a bandit before." Xiaobao replied.
Fushimi Kiyoshi nodded in a sudden realization.
At the bottom of the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army, in addition to the Japanese, there were Koreans, Russians and Manchurians. However, most of the Manchurians were selected from among the retired Manchukuo soldiers. It's not that there are no people like Xiaobao, but there are very few of them.
"There are still eight or nine hours until dawn, and if there is no accident tonight, we will be able to reach Mingyue Island." Fushimi Kiyoshi looked at his watch and said. It seems that this time the task will depend on the little bandit in front of him, Fushimi Kiyoshi spoke very politely.
"Killing wolves is a trivial matter, and troublesome things are behind." Xiaobao said with a wry smile.
Four or five hours later, a taller wolf trotted along the river.
It will stick its nose to the ice for a while and sniff it for a while before running forward.
Running all the way to the place where Fushimi Kiyoshi and the third two of them threw the snow, the wolf stuck his nose in the blood and kept sniffing, and then there was a whimper coming from the depths of his throat.
Its nose was pressed against the ice, and it crawled towards the shore with its four paws. Climb all the way to the shallow pit where Xiaobao buried the wolf, and stick his nose deep into the snow and sniff.
Raising his head and howling to the sky, the wolf put his two front paws on the snow and kept picking up until he pulled out the wolf's corpse, which had been frozen into ice.
The wolf kept sniffing at the wolf's corpse with his nose. It took a long time to raise the wolf's head and look into the distance.
It ran to the ice again, sniffed around the bloodstains, and then chased in the direction where Xiaobao and the four of them were walking.
The Heilongjiang and Ussuri rivers meet on the edge of Khabarovsk. But the two rivers are actually connected by several other waterways. The largest of these is the Fuyuan Waterway.
Xiaobao and the four of them are now in a small waterway near Kura Island in the middle of the Ussuri River, turning left. Part of a waterway is Meiyue Island.
If artillery is erected on Mingyue Island, you can directly shell Khabarovsk. It is also possible to shell the Trans-Siberian railway bridge across the Heilongjiang River.
This is also the reason why the Soviet army refused to return it even after reaching an agreement after forcibly occupying the Black Blind Island in 1929. Location is too important.
If the Soviets were going to build a fortress, this was the first choice. Xiaobao and the others just went around to the back of Mingyue Island and observed the construction of the fortress from the back to the west.
The Battle of Nomenkan had only been half a year, and the Soviet Union and Japan had just reached an armistice. Both sides are also relatively restrained, and neither is likely to take any military action. The severe cold of more than 30 degrees below zero in winter was not a good time for the Japanese army to send troops. The Soviet army's precautions are generally not too strict, and this is also a good opportunity for Xiaobao to carry out their tasks.
"I've been here ten years ago, and two miles to the east is where the two rivers meet. This is also a relatively high place here, and you can see far away with a telescope to the west. The third stomped his foot and said.
"That's it. How can you take a few days to see the rough. Fushimi Kiyoshi nodded and said.
"Dig snow, snow pits can't do it, you have to dig snow holes. While there's still some time to dig a small one in the first to rest. Dig another big one tomorrow night. Xiaobao said.
