Chapter 13: The Sudden Sound of Gunshots
"The Japanese devils have the cover of planes and artillery, plus the combat effectiveness of the devil soldiers is much stronger than our soldiers, if it weren't for the German-style automatic equipment in our hands, it is estimated that even if we go up, we will not be able to solve any big problems, even if our equipment is good, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness is, but after all, the number of people is too small, it is impossible to rely on our few German armament regiments and German armament divisions to solve the fundamental problem, I said don't be too sad, how can there be immortals in the war as soldiers, as long as the dead are valuable." Fu Zhiyong also took a deep breath, looked up at the night sky shining with a little starlight, and said lightly.
"I'm sad not because my people died in battle, but because our country is too poor, what are our soldiers like? All of them are skinny and skinny, you look at the sturdy physique of those Japanese devils, hand-to-hand combat can only barely deal with a Japanese devil by three or four of us, this is a war, it is a death squad of tens of thousands of people in the entire division, and they will be discarded by the peak in the end, and my brothers who died in battle are really blind to death. Zhang Weidong spat angrily and scolded.
"Our country has been in civil war for many years, and warlords from all walks of life have been fighting year after year, and it is understandable that the national strength is declining day by day, but I just hope that we will have another prosperous scene after we pass this hurdle." Fu Zhiyong really didn't know what to say, so he could only cheer himself up.
"If it continues to develop like this, it is a miracle that the country will not die, and it will be prosperous! You really have a big heart, hum ......" Zhang Weidong sneered twice and said.
Fu Zhiyong didn't talk to Zhang Weidong again, but stroked the Type 79 Zhongzheng rifle in his hand alone, he didn't know what the future would be, he only knew that he was now losing the capital Nanjing.
"What are you thinking?" Zhang Weidong saw that Fu Zhiyong didn't speak for a long time, and couldn't help but push him and asked.
"I'm thinking about my brothers...... and Commander Shaw. Fu Zhiyong put the gun on his lap and said.
"I also have deep admiration for the heroic spirit of Commander Xiao who died for his country, eh...... I just remembered, you're a masterless now, right? Who will build it in the future? Zhang Weidong suddenly remembered this as he spoke, and hurriedly asked.
"I don't know, maybe I'll be assigned to other troops by Shangfeng." Fu Zhiyong shook his head and said with a confused face.
Fu Zhiyong's heart is more confused than anyone else about what will happen in the future, but he never tells his brothers, because even if they say it, they can't help themselves, and if it is not good, it will break people's hearts, which is really troublesome......
The night was very peaceful, and after eating some food early the next morning, Fu Zhiyong found Zhang Weidong and Liao Peng to discuss the next specific action plan.
At present, several important towns along the Yangtze River have been completely controlled by the Japanese army, and they are even more surrounded by the hinterland of the Japanese army.
Liao Peng and Zhang Weidong looked at the map for a long time and nodded in agreement with Fu Zhiyong's idea, and then after the three of them agreed, they gathered people and set off immediately.
Since there is no intelligence to understand the specific operation and deployment of the Japanese army, Fu Zhiyong and the others can only continue to walk the mountain road, trying to avoid encounters and encounters with the Japanese army, but fortunately, Li Qiusheng is a native of Nanjing and is familiar with the situation in this area, otherwise he would rely on the rough marked map in Fu Zhiyong's hand to get out of this vast primeval jungle, which is basically almost like seeking death.
Besides, Fu Zhiyong is holding a military map, and the main marks are towns and roads and bridges, who will come in to explore the terrain in this primeval jungle, and it is even more impossible to make a detailed map.
Fu Zhiyong They went all the way over the mountains and mountains, and chose to travel far away from the roads and villages in the deep mountains, although the hardships were abnormal, but everyone was very down-to-earth, coupled with sufficient grain, rice and fresh water, and from time to time they could also hunt some game to eat, the soldiers' bodies were not thin, but they were also a lot stronger, and their spirits gradually recovered, changing the previous appearance of defeat.
"Battalion commander, let's go about five miles further to Jurong County." This morning, Li Qiusheng looked at the surrounding terrain and the direction of the sun, and reported to Fu Zhiyong.
"Battalion commander, what kind of place is this, except for the forest and the mountain, there is not even an easy place to get footed, when do you have to go." At this time, Yu Hua followed behind Fu Zhiyong and complained about wiping the sweat on his head, and from time to time he shook the dirt and rotten leaves on his shoes.
Yu Hua was originally from Henan, and he was very unsuitable for the mountainous environment in southern Anhui, and he was about to have a nervous breakdown by climbing and descending the mountain all day long.
"I said don't complain about you, kid, look at the two little girls who didn't say anything, you are a big man with a gun and embarrassed to complain, give Lao Tzu a ......" Zhang Dali pulled Yu Hua with a Czech light machine gun, asked him to stabilize his body and not slip down, and then threw his light machine gun to him after he went down.
"It's really not that I'm hypocritical, you see that my two big feet are all blistered, and they hurt when they break." After Yu Hua jumped down the hill, he raised his hand to catch the light machine gun thrown down by Zhang Dali, and easily supported Zhang Dali to calm him down, and then said complainingly.
"Fuck you have a lot to do, you go and ask a few brothers, except for Li Qiusheng, who doesn't have a bubble on his feet, isn't it a ninja, Lao Tzu let you see me first, it's really not me blowing it with you, my bubble is about to grow to my feet and neck......" After Zhang Dali stood firm, he wanted to take off his shoes and let Yu Hua see the big blisters on his feet.
"Okay, Brother Zhang, don't take off your stinky shoes, they smell weird, when you rest at night, you find some water to wash your feet well, and I'll give you some medicine, and you won't bubble after a few days when you get used to it." At this time, Liu Mei, who was in the middle of the team, shouted softly to Zhang Dali and Yu Hua, and her little hand symbolically fanned the front of her nose, with a really unbearable expression.
"Uh...... How embarrassing this is, hehe......" Zhang Dali immediately put his foot down when he heard Liu Mei's words, and quickly took the light machine gun and carried it on his broad shoulder, and smirked a little embarrassedly.
Zhang Dali is a typical northern man, he came to the Jiangnan boundary from outside the border because he fled, at that time he always couldn't eat, plus he was tall and big, the whole person was hungry like a big chicken steak walking straight away, if it wasn't for the fact that the gendarmerie was reorganizing and recruiting new people to join the army, seeing that he was tall and big enough to accept him, it is estimated that Zhang Dali would have starved to death in which alley, usually he is seven disobedient to anyone and eight are not angry, and only he can't see girls stubble with him, this mouth is red before he opens his face.
Yu Hua usually has the best relationship with Zhang Dali, and whenever he is free, he teases him with this, and he deserves to be cheap, Zhang Dali beats him half to death every time, but these two people still remember to eat or not, and after a while, they stick to each other and mutter together, which makes others see a lot of jokes, which can be regarded as a kind of team entertainment for these people.
"Battalion Commander Fu, do you want to let the brothers rest first, it's been almost two hours." Zhang Weidong also jumped down from the hillside at this time, and quickly caught up with Fu Zhiyong in front of him and asked.
Because his people carry too many things, although it is not difficult for them to walk the mountain road, but this physical strength is really unable to keep up, and the big bag of silver dollars alone weighs more than 20 catties, not counting the messy equipment on the body.
"Okay, let the brothers rest for a while, but this march speed is too slow, tell the brothers in a while, we have to speed up......" Fu Zhiyong looked back at the people who came one after another, and his eyes also looked left and right again, and then nodded helplessly and said.
Walking the mountain road is time-consuming and laborious, plus everyone has a lot of loads, no one can do this if they want to ensure safety and not waste time, and it is already good to be able to rush to the vicinity of Jurong County in a few days.
"Stop and rest! Everyone put their things down and rested for a while before leaving. As soon as Zhang Weidong heard Fu Zhiyong agree, he hurriedly turned around and waved his hand to everyone and shouted.
Fu Zhiyong had just put down the binoculars at this time and wanted to turn around and find a place to sit down and rest, but before he could sit down, he suddenly heard a long muffled sound from the valley.
"Everyone, spread out and hide, there is a situation!" Fu Zhiyong was stunned for a moment and carefully identified the source of the sound, but no matter how he heard it, it felt like the sound of a gun firing, and without saying a word, he grabbed the 79-type Zhongzheng rifle on his shoulder, and yelled at everyone under a big tree nearby.
"Hide, quickly hide...... Zhang Weidong's reaction was not slow, he picked up his rifle and lay down beside Fu Zhiyong, and ordered the soldiers behind him who didn't know why.
For a while, everyone who was about to relax suddenly became alert, scattered and separated, each looking for trees and grass to hide their figures, Zhao Hu's position was closest to the two little girls of the medical guard, and he hurriedly went up and pulled the two of them to lie behind a big tree and hide.
"Battalion commander, it doesn't sound like the gunfire of the Devil's Type 38 rifle, as for which direction the gun was fired, I really can't hear it, the echo in the valley is too loud." Liao Peng also distinguished for a while, shook his head and said.
"Li Qiusheng! Can you tell where the gunshots are coming from? Fu Zhiyong couldn't hear which direction the sound came from after listening for a long time, because this is a mountainous depression, the echo is very messy, and people who don't live in the mountains all year round can't tell it at all.
