Chapter 9, Remnants
In Dawang Village, after dinner in the evening, Lu Qiang found that the monkey was unstoppable, and he seemed to have something on his mind.
"What's wrong? I haven't been able to give up. Lu Qiang shouted at the monkey in a daze.
"Ah, nothing." The monkey replied casually.
"Nothing? To whom do you say this? ”
"It's really nothing, I just don't know why, I always feel as if something bad is about to happen, it feels weird." The monkey is also full of doubts.
"Bad things?" Lu Qiang repeated, lowered his head and turned his head, "Could it be that the little devil is going to do something?" ”
"I don't know, or I would have told you a long time ago."
"Let's be on guard these days, just in case."
"That's all it can be."
In the forest, two figures fled, followed by the Japanese army in pursuit, and the two were still discovered by the Japanese army.
The two of them were Er Laozi and Li Lao, and after being discovered by the Japanese army, they drilled in the woods in an attempt to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese army.
The entire guerrilla army, more than 300 people, is only one of the second slippers left (Li Lao is not a guerrilla person, so it is not counted).
The Japanese army followed closely behind, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the ghost is not gone.
"Smack! Smack! The gunfire that followed closely behind meant that the Japanese army was chasing after them all the time.
"Whoosh~~" The bullets that flew over their heads from time to time made the two people who ran shrink their heads, and if they were not careful, they might be cut by the bullets.
As a wolf in the jungle, he is very familiar with the environment here, opening the way in front, leading the two to run forward, stopping from time to time to wait for the two of them.
"Whoosh~" A 6.5mm bullet rubbed against a tree, and the trajectory was deflected, and it went straight into Li Lao's waist.
Suddenly attacked by a stray bullet, Li Lao stumbled and fell to the ground, and even the second slipper was taken down.
"Old Li, what's wrong?" Erluozi hurriedly got up and pulled Li Lao up.
"I've been shot, leave me alone, you go quickly, take Da Mao away." Li Lao Hu opened Erzi's hand and pushed him away.
"Everyone is dead, I, how can I live alone." The second slipper cried and choked.
"You are now the only species of the Songzhuang guerrillas, you must live, and you have to avenge everyone." Li Lao said sharply.
"I ......"
"Get out, get out." Er Laozi was just about to say something, but was interrupted by Li Lao.
Erzizi opened his mouth, said nothing, and then wiped away his tears and turned to run.
"Whew~~" Da Mao in the distance suddenly screamed, and his voice was full of desolation.
Li Lao sat up with difficulty, leaning against the tree, the bullet hit the lower back, shattered the spine, the bullet stuck in the bone, every time he moved, his eyes hurt with gold.
Li Lao, who was leaning on the tree, took out a packet of unknown medicinal powder from his arms and sprinkled it in the air, "Erluozi, this is the last thing I did for you, damn it, big girl, second girl, dad and I will accompany you, little monkey, I know you are still alive, where are you?" I don't want you to avenge us, I just hope you can live well and continue the incense of the old Li family......"
When Li Lao Niannian was broken, under the leadership of a team leader, more than 20 Japanese soldiers surrounded him, carrying guns and vigilantly looking at the black shadow leaning against the tree, not daring to step forward, afraid that the other party would hide a grenade on his body, and when he went up, he would pull it off, and this matter was not once or twice.
"Kiln~"
Suddenly, there was movement in the surrounding grass, which startled these Japanese soldiers, thinking that there was an ambush, and quickly turned around to pay attention to the surrounding grass. They didn't find anything, though, but the sound of rustling was getting closer, more and more.
What's going on? What the hell? The team leader who led the team was shocked, he had already drawn his command knife and paid close attention to everything around him.
A Japanese soldier suddenly felt as if something was crawling down his legs on him, but he didn't care, thinking it was an illusion, and shook his legs casually.
"Ah~" Suddenly, a Japanese soldier screamed, especially prominent in the quiet team, "Bugs, a lot of bugs." The Japanese soldier said in horror, jumping and slapping the insects that crawled on him.
The other Japanese soldiers also sensed that something was wrong, and the stumbling on the ground was like many insects crawling, and then another Japanese soldiers screamed, and the sound was like a contagion, one after another.
The team leader looked at his subordinates who were screaming and jumping, with a look of fear on his face, and then as if he had thought of something, he turned his head to look at the figure leaning against the tree, and said incoherently, "It's you, it's you, it's you, ah~~"
Before he could say a word, his body was covered in worms at the sound of his screams.
Li Lao, who was leaning against the tree, tilted his head, he didn't know when he was dead, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to be very happy when he left, but there was a trace of black blood hanging on the corner of his mouth, which seemed to be poisoned to death, or he himself poisoned himself, maybe he had expected this, just because of the packet of medicinal powder.
The miserable screams of the pursuing Japanese soldiers echoed in the mountains, and Yamada Kamishi, who had lit a bonfire, faintly heard this sound, and a trace of misfortune rose in his heart, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to go and see it anyway, so he immediately rushed over with his team.
Lighting a dozen torches, Yamada Kamian chased along the road with the remnants of the soldiers, and with the torches illuminated, their speed was much faster, but it still took more than twenty minutes.
"There's a lot of bugs here." One of the Japanese soldiers at the head of the platoon stopped and said in a somewhat frightened voice.
"Bugs?" Yamada Kamishi, who was in the middle of the team, was puzzled and stepped forward to take a look.
"Suck ~~" The scene made Yamada Kamishi gasp and was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, but he was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
Insects, all kinds of insects, ants, centipedes, snakes, scorpions and other poisonous insects that are rarely seen on weekdays, are all gathered here now, crawling everywhere, you squeeze me, I step on him, he presses you, these poisonous insects that will fight to the death as soon as they meet, are so entangled at the moment, and they do not kill each other, which makes people feel cold all over the body.
Yamada Kamian and the others stayed by the side in a daze, looking at the entangled poisonous insects, their minds were already blank, and the matter of giving orders was thrown out of the clouds.
It took them a long time to wake up from their fear, and the poisonous insects everywhere had slowly dispersed, revealing the clearing they had covered.
This small open space, out of place with the surrounding scene, is surrounded by lush greenery, but in such a small area, it looks extremely barren and dilapidated.
The bark of the trunks of several trees was gnawed away, revealing the heart of the tree, and in the center of the clearing, dozens of corpses of various shapes were placed, and the flesh and blood of the limbs were missing, leaving only snow-white bones. The yellow rags hanging on the wreckage and the steel helmet on the side of the head all indicate that these wreckage belong to their Japanese army.
"Withdraw, get out of here." Yamada Kamishi said with a little horror.
The Japanese withdrew, but the wreckage remained in place.
In Dawang Village, the monkey felt as if a thread was broken, and this inexplicable feeling made him a little irritable, tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.
Erluozi followed closely behind Da Mao, stumbling, none of his body was good, and his clothes were also hanging on his body. The 38 big cover that was selected by thousands of people has long been lost.
Already very tired from running, he tripped over a tree root sticking out, threw himself on the ground, and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, early in the morning, Lu Qiang got a message about the monkey, he had a cold and fever.
Hearing the news, Lu Qiang hurriedly got up from the bed and went to the hospital to have a look.
The monkey with a somewhat haggard face was lying on the bed, already asleep, so Lu Qiang did not disturb and ordered the people in the hospital to take care of the monkey.
was called up, Lu Qiang didn't have the heart to go to sleep, he usually got up at nine or ten o'clock, it was rare to get up early in the morning, and he had to find something to do.
So some of the things that were usually handled by the monkey were handed over to him......
After three days, the monkey's cold has been cured, and he can actually come out in the afternoon of the same day, but he was forced by Lu Qiang to be in the hospital and stayed until today.
However, he didn't let him be idle in the past two days, and the things that Lu Qiang handled on his behalf returned to the hands of the monkey again, so he worked in the hospital bed for the past two days and worked for Lu Qiang.
On the bank of the Yangtze River, a man and a dog walked upstream along the bank of the Yangtze River, and the man seemed to have not eaten for some time. The dog was a little better, but he was also following the man with his head down. The two of them are also Erluozi and Da Mao.
Eryozi woke up after a day of fainting, and then followed Da Mao out of the mountains and forests, and went upstream along the Yangtze River, he didn't know how he was blockaded by the Japanese army, but the month went upstream, the fewer Japanese troops he encountered, and the lower the number of appointments. Every time before meeting the Japanese army, Da Mao will give an early warning, which makes Erchuzi sigh thanks to Da Mao.
Although the Japanese army is getting fewer and fewer, Erluozi still hasn't met a family, he hasn't eaten for almost three days, he is already exhausted, Da Mao is a little better, after all, it is a wolf, and it is okay if he doesn't eat or drink for a week.
After walking for more than two days, he finally stepped into the scope of Tongling City, and also met people, who were regarded as asking for food, and finally ate a hot meal.
After a full meal, Erluozi now rested for a while in the small village of more than a dozen families, and continued to set off after Da Mao came back and marched west along the Yangtze River.
It stands to reason that as a member of the guerrillas, after losing the team, he should have gone to the headquarters, but instead of looking for the early guerrilla headquarters, he went west.
There are also reasons for this, first, he doesn't know the connection method of the guerrillas, nor does he know the route address, and he goes rashly, it is likely to be discovered by the Japanese army, and second, he has heard Gou Xiangdong instill in him some things about the 41st Group Army, through Gou Xiangdong's indoctrination, a vague impression has been formed in his mind, that is, the 41st Group Army is very strong, he wants revenge, relying on the guerrillas do not know that he will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey, so he went to the 41st Group Army, hoping that the other party can help, in Gou Xiangdong's words, The relationship between the 41st Group Army and their New Fourth Army was not bad.
He was relatively simple-minded, he didn't think too much, he just wanted revenge, and he didn't think about it at all, why did the 41st Group Army help him?
