"Sun Lei, you kid deceives people too much. I've taught you all the grenade throwing skills I've worked so hard to learn in exchange for a small bite of fried noodles, which is already a huge advantage for you.

"You really know people and don't know your heart, not only do you not know how to repay your kindness, but you even took an empty ration bag and gave it to me as a good person, saying that there are a lot of fried noodles in it. There's nothing in it but air, and you'll be given back the food bag, so you can keep it and eat the air inside. ”

The angry Sun Mancang first pointed to Sun Lei, who was standing in front of him and smiling from ear to ear, and condemned him with righteous words, and also slammed the ration bag in his hand on the snow under his feet, and said in an angry tone.

Looking at Sun Mancang's angry look, Sun Lei, who was standing opposite him, felt even more funny, in his opinion, teaching him the skill of throwing grenades, this is what his son and grandson Mancang promised yesterday, he himself was so hungry that he couldn't do it, how could he be willing to give him fried noodles that could be used for preserved fruits for nothing.

What's more, Sun Lei's ration bag only had those two mouthfuls of fried noodles at that time, and he had already eaten them clean, even if he wanted to help Sun Mancang now, he couldn't take out the fried noodles now.

Anyway, the skill of throwing grenades has been basically mastered, in Sun Lei's opinion at this time, Sun Mancang is now stealing chickens and rice, losing his wife and breaking soldiers, and he is not like him.

Sun Mancang, who was already hungry and growling, spent a lot of effort just now to teach Sun Lei to throw the grenade far and accurately, and he was already exhausted, so naturally he didn't have more strength to scold Sun Lei.

No, Sun Mancang, who had just opened his mouth and scolded a few words, was tired and hungry, seeing that Sun Lei directly ignored his existence, he felt that it would be in vain for him to continue scolding, it was better to save some effort, so he had to close his mouth, and he was really angry in his heart.

After the two of them had stopped, the hillside on the right side of the road immediately fell into silence, except for the soldiers in charge of patrolling and guarding, walking on the thick snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the soldiers resting on the spot, falling asleep with their eyes closed, and snoring one after another, no sound could be heard.

Whether it is on the hillside on the left side of the highway or on the hillside on the right side, the soldiers of the third company have already eaten the few remaining mouthfuls of fried noodles in the snow, but they still can't suppress the hunger that emanates from their stomachs like a tide, wave after wave.

Therefore, they chose a good way to resist hunger, that is, to close their eyes and sleep, only in a state of sleep, can the soldiers forget about hunger, and in their dreams to draw bread to satisfy hunger and hope for plum thirst.

The problem is that the soldiers who are resting in place can temporarily forget about hunger by sleeping, while the other part of the soldiers who are responsible for patrolling and guarding cannot resist hunger.

They had to grab a handful of clean snow from the ground and eat a few bites when they were on patrol, but they could only quench their thirst, but they still couldn't keep people from being hungry.

After three hours passed, it was soon their turn to patrol and guard in three companies and one platoon, and this time, Sun Lei and Deng Sanshui were assigned to a group, which made Sun Lei immediately feel relieved.

If he was assigned to a group with Sun Mancang again, he really couldn't imagine how embarrassing the scene would be if the two of them were almost inseparable for three hours, and how embarrassing it should be.

Although Sun Lei finished eating his only two small mouthfuls of fried noodles early this morning, which can be regarded as filling his stomach, when he was patrolling with Deng Sanshui, his shriveled stomach made a "gurgling" sound very uncompromisingly.

I don't know if the hunger is contagious, or something else, when Sun Lei's stomach "gurgling" for a while, and finally stopped abruptly, Deng Sanshui's stomach began to "gurgle" again.

After the two of them stopped and glanced at each other, Sun Lei took the lead in asking in a tentative tone: "Lao Deng, we don't have anything to eat now, in the past, when you were fighting devils in the deep mountains and old forests in the northeast, if you encountered this situation, what methods did you take to solve it?" ”

As soon as Sun Lei's words fell, Deng Sanshui, who was so hungry that his stomach growled, first shook his head and replied in a helpless tone: "When I participated in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation to fight the little devils, I hid in the deep mountains and old forests, even if the snow closed the mountain, I could still find some wild vegetables and fruits to eat on the mountain."

"You may not imagine now that we ate bark and grass in our hardest times. And in the place where we are now, this grass is also bitter grass, most of this tree is mainly pine and cypress, so the grass is not edible, and the bark of this tree is even more inedible, we can only be hungry, waiting for the enemy to retreat here from Guitou Cave. ”

Sun Lei, who was starving, heard this, and continued to inquire in a curious tone: "No, Lao Deng, we don't have anything to go hungry, what does it have to do with the enemy who retreated to us from the direction of Guitoudong?" ”

Hearing Sun Lei's question, it was unbelievable to Deng Sanshui, how could this guy with a smart and clever brain ask such a stupid question.

It is said that he has been stupid for three years after being pregnant, and the current situation is that Sun Lei, who is hungry from morning to noon, has a very worrying IQ.

After sighing lightly, Deng Sanshui replied: "How can it be okay, think about it, if most of our volunteers capture Guitoudong, will the US-South Korean coalition troops originally stationed in Guitoudong retreat to our place."

"And we have set up a roadblock of more than 200 meters on the road they must pass to evacuate, and the US-South Korean coalition troops who retreated by vehicles, under the pursuit of most of our volunteers, they will definitely abandon their weapons and equipment and flee in a hurry.

"In addition, they will also leave a large number of military supplies and food here, then our third company just happened to be guarding here, as the so-called near the water tower first got the moon, when we rushed down and cleaned up the battlefield, we will definitely collect a lot of food and rations that are only concerned about the escape of the United States and South Korea coalition troops."

It was not until this time that Sun Lei, whose brain was in the water, suddenly realized that the soldiers who were not only patrolling and guarding, were all sleeping on their marching backpacks one by one, and they were all waiting for the enemy to retreat here from the direction of Guitou Cave.

In this way, after changing shifts twice every three hours, it was already nightfall, and the soldiers who had endured hunger and slept with their eyes closed during the day were all very energetic as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Because the soldiers of the Third Company knew better than anyone else that their volunteer army was the best at fighting at night, and at this time, it had already entered the night from daylight, and they were recuperating during the day, so they naturally cheered up their spirits and waited to hear the sound of the battle of attacking Guitoudong five kilometers west of the city.
