What are people most afraid of?

There is no standard answer to this question, and 10,000 people may have 10,000 very different answers.

Maybe birth, old age, sickness and death, maybe mediocrity, and so on.

But in fact, as long as you generalize, everything that people fear has a striking resemblance in the core, and that is the unknown......

There is no idea what the future holds.

Coming to this era, although Zhang Ran is sad and sad in the face of those sacrifices, he is more determined than anyone else for the future, and he has to be calm - because he knows what the future will bring, and knows that no matter how difficult it is in front of him, it is temporary.

Therefore, he can be indifferent to everything he encounters at the moment, so he will never be lost for any reason, and he can face it with a smile most of the time.

But this time, he really couldn't laugh!

Things had changed that he had never expected, and he didn't dare to wonder if Chief Zero would go the way it had happened in the future!

Therefore, when Zhang Ran and his entourage finally entered the Gaolin area, connected with Lei Xiao at the joint location secretly set up by Yang Quanlin who woke up, and saw Lei Xiao, whose eyes were red, handing over the shocking casualties transmitted from all sides, and looking at himself with tears in his eyes, Zhang Ran still did not waver in the slightest!

Chief Zero, he wants to see people alive and corpses when he dies!

Before these are done, let alone casualties, even if everyone and even themselves are dead, this saturation rescue plan must be fully implemented!

"Captain, do you really think it's worth it to let tens of thousands of people die because of it for the sake of a chief? Do you really think that the life of a leader is more precious than the lives of thousands of comrades? Lei Xiao asked sadly.

"It's not worth it to change someone, like me!"

Zhang Ran said: "But if it's this chief, it's definitely worth it, not to mention thousands of people, even if it's tens of thousands, as long as I can save him, I won't blink an eye-I know that you will definitely think that I am cruel to say this, and feel that I only have those high-ranking chiefs in my eyes and ignore the fact that ordinary soldiers are also raised by their fathers and mothers...... But I still say that if you have the opportunity to live for a long, long time, then one day in a few decades, you will definitely understand my decision! "I will definitely try to live and see if the day you said will come, captain!"

Lei Xiao took a hard breath, then took out the map and began to report to Zhang Ran.

The last place where Chief Zero and his entourage appeared was two days ago, and the address was in the Wulian area at the junction of Pingtongguan and Gaolin.

As soon as he received Zhang Ran's order, the captain woke up, and the political commissar Yang Quanlin divided his troops into two routes, one way to the Wulian area, and the other way, rushed to the direction where Chief Zero and others were most likely to appear after throwing off the enemy - the Chihua area!

"When we left, our Gaolin guerrillas totaled more than 400 people, and now there are less than 200 left......

Lei Xiao's voice sounded a little muffled: "Especially the team led by Instructor Yang, in the direction of Chihua, was chased and beaten by the devil puppet army led by Kobayashi Qing, and suffered heavy casualties, although Captain Su and they have not yet encountered a large-scale encounter with the devil puppet army, but now they continue to look for the traces of the zero leader in the devil occupation area, I am afraid that sooner or later they will have to bite the little devil ......"

"So, Chief Zero, they haven't heard anything until now?" Zhang Ran asked.

Lei Xiao shook his head.

While observing the area where Leader Zero and the last one appeared, the terrain around Wulian, Zhang Ran asked where the guerrillas led by Sun Hongzhong, Tu Jinjun, Zhu Junlin and others had arrived at at the moment, as well as the situation of coming from the Longyuan Mountains and forcibly breaking through the defense line between Dingzhou and Pingtongguan......

The casualties of all the departments were extremely heavy.

But the distance between them and the Wulian area is still far away and terrifying, I am afraid that in two or three days, they will not even have a chance to reach the vicinity of Wulian, let alone the street should reach the head of the zero leader!

In fact, this is the reason why Lei Xiao is so puzzled - because these teams have made such a huge sacrifice, and in the end, what they may do is useless!

"Wasted?"

Zhang Ran looked at Lei Xiao, stretched out his finger and drew a circle on the map and said: "We have mobilized so many forces, and the devils have to draw a lot of strength to deal with them - I know that the devils are taking this opportunity to eliminate our living forces as much as possible, but haven't you noticed that while the devils are doing this, they don't have enough strength to carry out a large-scale search and arrest of the area where the zero leader and they may be......"

After Zhang Ran's reminder, Lei Xiao suddenly came to his senses, but the look on his face became even more sad because of this-he originally thought that the troops were risking such a heavy price to move closer to this side in order to save the leader of Zero.

What he didn't expect was that in Zhang Ran's plan, their role was only to use death to contain the devils and prevent the devils from concentrating in the Wulian region on a large scale!

He didn't know if the soldiers who were fighting bloodily, the soldiers who had died for it, would feel like knives in their hearts when they heard the news - he only knew that when he heard the news now, his heart was really like a knife.

"You don't look like you're thirty now, do you?"

Zhang Ran saw the flame of anger in Lei Xiao's eyes, stared at him and said: "You remember, you must work hard to live, don't die, at least live to be seventy or eighty years old, or even a hundred years old, as long as you live to that time, you will definitely understand why I gave such a cold-blooded and ruthless order today......"

After finishing speaking, he no longer cared about Lei Xiao, but looked at Jia Quantao and the others: "The horses are all fed, right?" Let's go as soon as we're fed and we're going here right away......"

As he spoke, his finger slammed into the area west of Wulian, the area around Hanyang Town!

Jia Quantao and the others were all looking at Zhang Ran's pants, and Zhang Ran's pants had already formed a thick layer of blood scabs.

Their eyes were full of unbearable, because they had experienced that kind of injury themselves, and they knew how painful it was!

However, Lei Ming pointed to the terrain around Hanyang Town, and resolutely opposed it, saying that if the leaders of No. 0 had not been murdered at present, they would definitely not go to the direction of Hanyang Town!

Because the area of Hanyang Town does seem to be mountainous and forested, it is easy to hide, but this area has a fatal weakness, that is, because there are many mountains and forests, there are fewer roads that can be taken!

And over there, almost every traffic artery has been guarded by devil soldiers!

Chief Zero and they go that way, once they get in, they won't be able to move an inch!

"Since the guards around Chief Zero have been sent out to protect Chief Zero to our base area, it is impossible not to understand the enemy's troop deployment in the surrounding area, as long as they are not stupid, it is impossible to go to Hanyang ......"

Lei Xiao said with great certainty, this is not only his own intuitive opinion, but also the conclusion reached after discussing with Yang Quanlin and others.

Therefore, Su Xing and Yang Quanlin will divide into two routes, all the way directly into the Wulian area to search, and all the way to the direction of Chihua.

I went to the Wulian area because I was worried that Leader Zero would not be able to get rid of the enemy after their whereabouts were exposed, so they had to hide on the spot and wait for reinforcements.

The reason for going to Chihua is that the direction of Chihua is closer to their guerrilla zone, but as long as the leader of Zero can shake off the enemy's pursuit, he will definitely enter the direction of Chihua and try to contact them and seek protection.

In their opinion, going to Hanyang is simply unreasonable.

But Zhang Ran still insisted on his opinion!

His reasons are very sufficient, on the one hand, wake up, Yang Quanlin is now in the Wulian Chihua region, but these areas have not received the zero leader at all!

If Chief Zero were in these areas, it would be impossible not to know that Yang Quanlin was nearby, and it would be impossible to hide from them!

"But what if, Chief Zero, they've been forced into hiding and can't show up at all?" Lei Xiao was unconvinced.

"That's because you don't know how serious Chief Zero's injuries are!" Zhang Ran said.

Chief Zero is in dire need of penicillin to control his injuries now, and he can't afford the guards around him to continue to delay in order to ensure safety!

Therefore, as long as they are in the Wulian and Chihua areas, even if they are desperate, they will choose to contact the guerrillas - this is also an important reason why Zhang Ran firmly believes that the leader of Zero is more likely to be in the Hanyang area!

In the Hanyang area, it is true that because the mountains are too high and the forests are too dense, the devils control the traffic arteries, which is equivalent to locking that piece indeed!

But don't forget, once they actually pass through the Hanyang area, they will go straight to the Cheongpyeong border area!

That direction is obviously closer than passing through Chihua to the detachment's base area!

Lei Ming was not convinced, but he also had to admit that there was indeed such a possibility - provided that the guards around Chief Zero were really as brave as Zhang Ran said, not only bold, but also brave to take risks!

Zhang Ran stopped the idea of Lei Ming's awakening and Yang Quanlin's move in the direction of Hanyang, and he needed them to continue to hold off the enemy.

On the Hanyang side, it was enough for him and Jia Quantao to go over.

They're all on horseback, and they're fast enough!

Looking at the backs of Zhang Ran and the others who were gone, Lei Ming, who was originally hating Zhang Ran in his heart, was suddenly relieved - he couldn't forgive Zhang Ran for letting so many soldiers die for a leader, but now, he saw Zhang Ran himself risking his life for such a glimmer of hope......

At least he didn't just send others to their deaths!

"Six sons!"

Then Lei Xiao screamed and said to Wang Liuzi who came over: "How many people do we have in our hands?" ”

"Although they are all activists, there are only about forty of them!" Wang Liuzi said.

"Copy guy, come with me, go to Hanyang!"

Lei Xiao roared, he didn't know if it was too late for him to wait for someone to rush over, he just hoped that if he could use himself, he could at least help.
