Chapter 139: Each Performs His Duties
Our squad of 31 people wrapped our clothes, pants, and ammunition by the Nu River and tied them to our shoulders. Shirtless in the water, holding a carbine with one hand, fortunately carrying a carbine, even with an ordinary rifle on the way, it was tiring to hold one hand.
With the help of Suodu, our team walked silently in the upriver water, and no one spoke, because a mouth was about to be choked to death by the turbulent river. From time to time, he has to reach out and pull a guy who didn't hold Suodu, so as not to kill him in the Nu River before he crosses the river.
In the early morning, the west bank was even quieter, and the Japanese army did not find the most dangerous place in the Nu River at all, and there was a group of Chinese soldiers floating on the river like ducks lined up, one by one.
After more than 40 minutes of confrontation with the rapids, 31 of us finally saw the tidal flats on the west bank. Cui Manzi was the first to climb ashore, he turned around and dragged the exhausted Tan Weimin, and the two of them worked together to drag Carol ashore, one after another, supporting and dragging each other to pull everyone from the Nu River to the beach.
Carol was lying on the ground on all fours, muttering a sentence repeatedly, I glanced at Tan Weimin and said, "What did this guy say?" ”
Tan Weimin was also exhausted, leaned on his package, and said, "He said this is too fucking crazy!" ”
I laughed and said, "That's really the label of our trip, we're just going to have a crazy adventure!" ”
The men of the detachment lay on the beach on the west bank and walked in the Nu River for more than 40 minutes, which was no less than running for 40 minutes, and even more exhausting than running for 40 minutes.
"Get up, get up, you have to rest in the woods, lie here and wait for the Japanese to get up and pee, and when they see you, they will lose their lives here!" I scare them.
So, more than 30 people stumbled into the forest on the shore, and then I sent two people to stand on guard, and the rest of them hurried to recover their strength, and at the same time to check their guns and ammunition equipment.
I asked Shangguan Yusi beside me and said, "Doctor Shangguan, have you been here before?" ”
Shangguan Yusi shook his head and said: "I haven't been here, this is the main position of the Japanese army, I was too late to avoid them at that time, and I wouldn't stick to the devil's pile at all." ”
I sighed, "I thought you could be a ready-made guide, but it seems that you miscalculated......"
Shangguan Yusi smiled: "Do you want to disassemble each person into several functions before you stop." ”
I was told to break my mind, and said with a dry smile: "Make the best use of things, we have few people, and if we don't use it like this, we will be tired to death and delay time." ”
"All up, go!" I gave the order in a low voice.
A Qiu Ba muttered while carrying the gun on his shoulder, "I just took a breath......
I took the butt of a rifle to his back and scolded, "When you have taken a breath, we will all be dead!" If you don't want to go, turn around and go back now! ”
Qiu Ba didn't dare to say much, and hurriedly ran into the team. We formed two columns and marched along the woods by the river, so that we would not be discovered by the Japanese troops at our heads, and even if we were discovered, we could hide in the woods at any time.
After walking for more than half an hour, Ani leaned over and said, "Brother An, if we go further, we will go the same way as the last time Captain Huang crossed the river." ”
"The team stops advancing!" I took out the map of the West Bank from my body, turned around and asked, "What about Staff Officer Liang of the military headquarters?" Call here, call here. ”
Staff Officer Liang is probably the most embarrassed one in our team, he has been following the commanders in the military department all the year round, and he doesn't need to practice like Qiu Ba at all, his body is not a little worse than ordinary Qiu Ba, he is walking at the end of the team with a wooden stick at this moment.
I hurriedly greeted him, unfolded the map, and said, "Staff Officer Liang has worked hard. If I want to go around the back mountain of Moyunling and go up from their side and back, what is the best way to go? ”
Staff Officer Liang is a lieutenant, and he is just an ordinary operational staff officer, and it is not as simple as a level and a half inferior to me, and the military chief officer has unlimited promotion possibilities, and if an operational staff officer wants to be reused, if there is no one to help, it is really difficult.
I guess this unlucky guy was sent to us by the military department to participate in such a dangerous operation, he must also be an ordinary combat staff officer who is not powerful and has no background, and I have a natural sense of sympathy for such a person.
Staff Officer Liang looked at the map carefully and said: "Sir An, look, this is the Nameless Peak, the right side of the Nameless Peak is Moyunling, we go up from the fork in the front, and the Nameless Peak is Wujia Village, and then we can reverse from Wujia Village and then turn back to the flank of Moyunling, which should be accessible in all directions, and you can go wherever you want." ”
I nodded, the road that Staff Officer Liang said was basically the same as I thought, and even more thoughtful than I thought, such as turning back from Wujia Village, it is a very wonderful hand, ordinary people will think that Wujia Village is already a dead end, where to go? When we turned back, we could see another road, leading directly to the flank of Moyunling.
I called him here just to confirm whether my judgment was correct, but because of this, I no longer have doubts about his ability, at least this is a real material combat staff officer.
I packed up the map and said, "That's it!" Just follow the route of Staff Officer Liang! Wang Sibao, Qian Xiaoliu, you are the vanguard! Qian Xiaoliu, pay attention to the soles of your feet! ”
Qian Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sir An, you don't have to be afraid of any thunder with me." ”
I continued to instruct and said, "Zhai Meng, Ani, Cui Manzi, you are the second team." Your mission is to clear the way for us and pull out the Japanese outposts! Remember, try not to shoot! ”
Cui Manzi pulled out a spear from his trouser tube and grinned: "Sir An, use this?" ”
I said, "As long as you can silence the Japanese soldiers, you can use anything." ”
Tan Weimin was eager to try, I stopped him and said: "You should be your translator, not only a translator, but also a bodyguard, Carol is very important to us, so you have to ensure his safety!" ”
Carol finally understood one of my words, he shook his head and said, "Trouble, I need a translator, I don't need a bodyguard." ”
I didn't look at him, waved the carbine in my hand, and said, "It's not up to you...... Now do your job and go! ”
Our squad is in the thorny bushes, cautiously moving forward, if we only need to guard against being swept away by the Nu River in the Nu River, here we need to guard against the hidden killing opportunities in all directions.
This fork in the road is just the way that hunters usually go up and down the mountain, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may take the wrong road, because there are too few people walking, and you can't see that this is still a road when it is covered by fallen leaves.
Thankfully, we have two people who are walking on the ground in the mountains, and Ani and Zhai Meng have made sure that we will not lose our way in the mountains and jungles again.
