Chapter 20: The Battle of the Kowloon River (4)
Lying in the water with my eyes open, I could clearly see the victorious smiles on the faces of the puppet soldiers, and one of them was still leaning his hands to his mouth and exhaling hot air, as if complaining that the weather was too cold or something.
Yadi, are you still called cold? You don't look at Lao Tzu! No, no...... Or don't look at it! If I see that my "dead corpse" is still alive, and there are still two zha medicine bags tied to my chest, then I will have the reputation of "dying before leaving the school", and then I will really respond to what Political Commissar Chen Ye said to me - there is the style of Zhuge Kongming back then.
The speed of the water was not slow, and in the blink of an eye the stone bridge was in front of my eyes, and I hurriedly stretched out my stiff and trembling hand to untie the marching belt, and then untie the layer of tarpaulin wrapped around it. Not to mention, the hands were frozen stiff, and it would be surprisingly difficult to accomplish these two tasks that would normally be as easy as drinking water.
I got closer and closer to the stone bridge, and I clearly saw the zha medicine piled up in the second arch, fortunately, the puppet army didn't have time to remove them in a hurry, otherwise with the two zha medicine bags on my body, I am afraid that I can only blow up a small part of the stone bridge.
I nervously touched the lead of the zha medicine, all I had to do was very simple, that is, pull the lead and throw the two zha medicine packets into the arch of the bridge. It's just that all this has to be done under the noses of the puppet army......
"Phew!" At this time, an accident appeared, and a puppet soldier on the bridge casually spit out the chewing gum in his mouth, and the piece of chewing gum fell next to my eyes with a thud, and I subconsciously turned my head sideways and blinked a few times. The puppet soldier didn't care at first, but suddenly realized that something was wrong, and stuck his head out and stared at me with a pair of boss's eyes.
"Hey!" I stretched out my stiff hand to greet him, trying to show myself a very handsome smile, but helplessly, the frozen face was just disobedient.
"Oh......" The puppet soldier was startled, his hands swinged, and he shouted to the other puppet soldiers in Korean: "Alive, there's a living one down there!" β
Suddenly, a few guns appeared on the edge of the bridge, but it was too late, I plunged down and pedaled a few times to the bottom of the bridge, and there was a thumping of gunfire on the bridge, splashing behind me, because of the angle, their rifles could not hit me at the bottom of the bridge.
I stood on the pier of the bridge, unhurriedly pulled the lead of the zha medicine bag, stretched out my hand and threw it lightly at the oblique point, and the zha medicine bag with a smoking tail bounced in the arch of the bridge and rolled near the zha medicine pile. Although my hands were stiff and my body was trembling, I still threw quite accurately......
Watching the zha medicine bag roll into the arch of the bridge, the puppet army immediately understood what was going on, and there was a commotion on the bridge immediately, and I only heard a strange scream on the bridge, mixed with the sound of tank tracks, and I really couldn't hear what they were saying.
I was about to ignite the second zha medicine bag when two round black things suddenly fell from the bridge, a bit like ...... It's a bit like the melon-style grenade commonly used by the Yankees.
What the? Grenade......
I hurriedly threw away the zha medicine bag in my hand, and plunged into the water and swam downstream with all my might. Mother, I scolded twice in my heart, these puppet soldiers still have a bit of brains, and they know how to throw grenades under the bridge. Before I could kick a few times, I felt two muffled sounds behind me, and a strong force pushed towards me, which shook my head and made my head dizzy, and the whole person involuntarily rushed forward like a kite with a broken string.
Then something terrible happened, I don't know if I was frozen or whatever, I suddenly realized that I couldn't control my hands and feet. I tried my best to paddle out of the water, but my hands and feet didn't listen, and what was even more terrifying was that my consciousness was still there and I was still awake. I could even clearly hear a loud bang, and I could clearly see a huge fire erupting from the stone bridge, and then I could watch as pieces of rubble flew around me like bullets. I tried to hide, but I couldn't move, so I could only let the cold, turbid river water continue to pour into my mouth and nose.
"Is that the end of it?" I cried out in my heart, I had thought about how I could die, but I never thought about dying in this state. It turns out that the feeling of death is like this, and it is not as painful as I imagined, but I feel a little tired and a little want to sleep......
At the last moment when I was about to lose consciousness, I heard a familiar voice in a hazy voice: "There! Platoon Leader Choi is there! Hurry up ......"

"Ahem, cough, cough......" I don't know how long it took, but I regained consciousness in a violent cough.
"Wake up, wake up! The platoon commander is awake! β
"It really works!" Huzi said excitedly: "I didn't expect that artificial respiration to really work!" I only blew about a dozen times before and after, and I can really save people! β
"Huzi!" I cried out weakly, "You...... How long has it been since you brushed your teeth? β
With that, another wave of dizziness struck, and I fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I found myself stuffed in a single bomb shelter with three or four marchers, so tightly stuffed that I couldn't move, leaving only a bowl-sized hole for me to breathe. Also, I wasn't dressed yet, and I seemed to have a bandage on my left shoulder.
"Hey! Anyone? I shouted out of the cave, but I was answered by the sound of gunfire, and they were all too busy fighting to pay attention to me. It's good that I can rest here a little longer, it's been a long time since I've slept in such a windless and rainless place and it's still very warm.
But as soon as I closed my eyes, the scenes of my comrades being blown to pieces, being beaten like a sieve by machine guns, and being burned to death by petrol bombs appeared before my eyes one by one. Thinking that they all died tragically because of my idea, I couldn't help but feel depressed in my heart. Thinking about the comrades outside who are still fighting to the death, while I am comfortably hiding here to sleep, I can't sleep at all.
"Anyone? Anyone? β
"The platoon commander is awake?" It was the voice of the old squad leader: "I've been guarding by the side all the time, and I didn't listen to the gunfire just now!" β
"Get me out, whoever stuffs it so tightly will be suffocated to death!"
"Huh!" The old squad leader pulled the quilt out in response, and kept saying, "Isn't it stuffed by Huzi?" This quilt was roasted in the fire for a while before it was stuffed in, saying that it was ......"
"Wait, wait." Only then did I remember that I was wearing nothing, and hurriedly shouted outside: "Old squad leader, go and help me get a set of clothes first......
