In the darkness of the night, a group of cavalry stopped beside a small river. "Captain Jie, we can only send it here. The front enters the Russian military area, which is called Ma Wan, and further on is Kuitun, which is about 200 kilometers away. Jie Zhenguo shook the hand of the cavalry officer and said, "You have been fortunate along the way. Our military operation is secret, and the Russian army must not be allowed to discover our intentions, so go back! "I wish you victory and victory!" The soldiers on both sides reluctantly took their leave.

The special combat team can no longer ride horses, the goal of riding is too big. The creek happened to run east-west, and the special operations team advanced westward along the creek. Each member of the team was overloaded, and most of the weapons and ammunition they carried were weapons, because they had to fight in the enemy's rear for two months, and the weapons and ammunition had to ensure the needs of the battle, so the troops marched slowly. After a few hours in the dark, "everyone keep up and don't fall behind, hold on until dawn and then rest." Jie Zhenguo gave a low command in front.

In order to prevent the exposure of targets, the special operations team had to march at night and rest during the day. The sky was bright, and a forest appeared in front of him, and Jie Zhenguo decided to camp in the forest in front. Entering the woods, the team members put their things on the forest ground, and they fell to the ground one after another, as if they had lost their strength. Jie Zhenguo gathered several captains together and said: "The four of us will act as guards first, let the team members sleep first, they are too tired to carry weights." The three of you go to bed first, and I'll keep watch. ”

"Captain, you better sleep first, let's keep guard!" Hao Bisheng is the best. "Execute the order!" Jie Zhenguo's tone is unquestionable. Ouyang Tie looked at Jie Zhenguo, full of admiration in his heart. Even in an independent cavalry division, it is unlikely that the commander will stand guard. It is no wonder that the Wehrmacht is invincible and brave in battle. The commander is like this, how can a soldier not sell his life.

Soon, everyone fell asleep. A trace of sleepiness struck, and Jie Zhenguo immediately became alert. He shook his head vigorously, then stood up to keep himself awake. Jie Zhenguo began to observe the surrounding scenery, this forest is not dense, it belongs to the alpine broad-leaved forest, due to the high latitude, the growth is very slow. Raise your eyes and look far away. Out of the forest, to the northwest and southwest is an alpine meadow, with grass at least half a meter high and full of unnamed flowers. The dots are very cute.

The terrain is at the bottom in the southwest and high in the northwest, forming an undulating state. Jie Zhenguo knew that the next step was to move in the southwest direction. When you enter the pasture, you enter the Kuitun area. According to the information learned by cavalry reconnaissance. Kuitun garrisoned a division of Russian cavalry, and the special operations team had to go around from the south side of Kuitun and then advance towards the Ili River valley. Before reaching Huocheng, no battle can break out with the Russian army, otherwise it will be troublesome to attract the attention of the Russian army too early.

Suddenly, on the playground to the northwest, there was the neighing of war horses. Jie Zhenguo was stunned for a moment, only to see a team of Russian cavalry appear on the high post. The distance between the high hill and the forest is about 500 meters, and the alpine broad-leaved forest is not dense. This distance is easy to spot. At this time, an exclamation came from behind him: "Captain, it's the Russian cavalry!" Jie Zhenguo hurriedly waved his hand to signal not to move. At this time, there was a Russian officer on the high post. Ride your horse and look into the woods.

Jie Zhenguo thought to himself, the Russian military officer must have found himself, but he didn't move. Because the Russian officer's telescope shifted direction, it looked very calm. This inevitably made Jie Zhenguo a little confused. He subconsciously glanced behind him and saw that the soldier's camouflage uniform almost blended into the surrounding scenery, playing a very camouflage role. Jie Zhenguo knew that the Russian army did not find himself, and it turned out that this dress played a covering role.

Sure enough, the Russian officer observed, and then led his headquarters to the northeast, obviously this is the Russian army's reconnaissance cavalry. Jie Zhenguo turned around and saw a burly team member behind him half-squatting on the ground, holding a rifle in his hand and smiling at him. Jie Zhenguo looked at the team member and saw that he was carrying a bow and arrow behind him, and there was a quiver box around his waist, which was full of iron bows and arrows. "What's your name? Which unit was brought in? Jie Zhenguo asked.

"Report to the captain, his subordinate is called Zhang San, and he is the squad leader of the first platoon of the third company of the first battalion of the 9th regiment of the independent cavalry division!" "You don't sleep?" "Report to the captain, my subordinates have been fighting immediately for a long time, and I have developed the habit of taking a nap, I slept last night when I was resting on the march, and I only slept for an hour." At this moment, there was a slight movement in the grass on the right. The two turned their heads to check, only to see a fat hare with its head exposed, and its three-petaled mouth kept squirming.

said that it was too late, and then it was fast, I saw Zhang Sanzhang with a bow and arrows, dazzling, and an arrow feather broke out of the air. The hare reacted quickly when it heard the sound, but the arrow feathers were faster, and the hare was shot in the back and began to struggle desperately. Zhang San walked over and picked up the hare's ears and said, "Captain, you go to sleep, I'll keep guard, and by the way, I will hunt some game." I found that there are a lot of hares here, and I will eat a roast rabbit meat for a while. Jie Zhenguo saw that Zhang San was very clever, so he leaned under the trees and closed his eyes with confidence.

A few hours later, Jie Zhenguo was awakened by the noise and saw that the soldiers had already woken up and were happily busy. "You see, because you should pick the rabbit skin like this, that is, it will save trouble and be clean." As he spoke, Ouyang Tie held a sharp dagger in his hand and quickly took off a rabbit skin. At this time, Hao Bicheng led his subordinates to set up a firewood pile happily, and Fu Jian led his subordinates to raise firewood and grass everywhere. Jie Zhenguo got up and walked over to the pyre.

"Captain, you're up, Zhang San, this kid has beaten 6 rabbits, we can have a full meal." Hao Bicheng said happily. "No fires, the smoke will reveal our whereabouts!" Jie Zhenguo categorically ordered. "Captain, how can you eat this rabbit without a fire?" Hao Bicheng was confused. "Eat it raw, the first lesson of survival in the wild starts now." After Jie Zhenguo finished speaking, he walked to a pile of firewood and grass, and a bloody rabbit was already hanging on the stand.

Jie Zhenguo sat on the ground, took out the salt from his arms, and then cut off a piece of rabbit meat with a dagger, dipped the salt and began to chew it. The captain personally took the lead, and several squad leaders were naturally not far behind. Some soldiers vomited immediately after eating a few bites, and the fishy smell of rabbit meat was indeed unbearable. "We have to eat it, otherwise we won't be able to survive in the wild. We have to eat not only raw rabbit meat, but also raw snake meat, toad meat, fish meat, and even bugs. "A few more members of the team vomited, and the meal was hard to swallow.

Two days later, on the edge of a small river in the Ili River Valley, the team members were eating raw fish. Fu Jian cut off a piece of fish meat with a dagger, dipped it in salt and put it in his mouth. “haha！ This fish is so delicious! Others chimed in. After two days of field training, the team members have adapted to raw food.

Jie Zhenguo and the translator of the Kazakh nationality Yeerkenla. "Ye Erken, you speak Chinese very well, where did you learn it?" Jie Zhenguo was a little curious.

"Captain, I am from Huocheng, there are many Han people living in Huocheng, I learned from them." Ye Erken replied. Jie Zhenguo nodded and asked: "You Weishenme joined the National Defense Force?" Ye Erken said hatefully: "A Russian soldier raped my sister, and I killed the Russian soldier in a fit of rage. The Russians arrested me and ran to Urumqi. Later, when your army came, I joined the Wehrmacht. "It's great that you are from Huocheng, tell me about the situation in Huocheng."

Jie Zhenguo and Ye Erken were talking, and Fu Jian hurriedly ran over and said, "Captain, a soldier in our detachment was bitten by a poisonous snake, I'm afraid it won't work!" When Jie Zhenguo heard this, he hurriedly followed Fu Jian to the soldier, only to see that the soldier was shirtless, and his left arm was already black from his chest to his chest. The soldier shuddered. Jie Zhenguo's face turned blue and said, "When did you find out?" "Shortly after I found out, the soldier fell asleep, unaware of the snake bite." Fu Jian replied.

Soon, the soldier stopped trembling and couldn't move, Jie Zhenguo touched his neck and said: "He is dead, bury him immediately, do not leave any traces." "After the soldiers were buried, there were no grave bags. All the team members stood in silence in front of the grave. After a long time, Jie Zhenguo said: "Danger is with us at all times, this is a non-combat attrition that should not occur, the responsibility lies with me, and everyone must learn a lesson." Be careful, teams, I don't want this to happen again. ”

At dawn on the 8th day, the troops arrived in front of a stone cliff, and Xiangshang looked up, and there was a cave in the middle of the stone cliff. Jie Zhenguo instructed two good climbers to go up to check, and soon two soldiers came down to report, and the stone cave above was very spacious and very hidden. Gan Zhenguo took the lead in grabbing the rope and climbed up, and everyone also climbed up to the stone cave one after another, and then transported weapons and ammunition to the cave. Shandong is really spacious. Everyone didn't have to speak, they looked for a place to lie down and fall asleep.

Maybe it's because of the high safety factor in the cave, or maybe it's because it's more comfortable in the cave, everyone sleeps very deeply. It wasn't until the sun set in the west that everyone got up one after another. The ventilation of the cave was very good, and Jie Zhenguo ordered a fire to be made and cooked, and everyone ate a decent cooked meal. After eating, Jie Zhenguo said: "Brothers, this place is about 50 kilometers away from Huocheng, and this cave is temporarily used as our secret base. ”

Jie Zhenguo continued: "We put the ammunition we carry here, and every 10 days we come back here to replenish the ammunition, and at the same time we meet and communicate." I've decided to make a big move together tonight, to rest for a while, and to set off at midnight. After Jie Zhenguo finished speaking, he discussed the target with several captains. Because Ye Erken was familiar with the local situation, Jie Zhenguo decided to attack a grain depot of the Russian army, and the bigger the movement, the better.

Subsequently, Jie Zhenguo said to Hao Bisheng, Fu Jian, and Ouyang Tie: "Regardless of whether the grain depot has hands or not, after we complete the attack mission, each squad must fight independently." I followed the third squad. Remember, there is no limit to the target, as long as the attack can achieve the goal and make it difficult for the Russian army to sleep. Don't take any chances, safety is a top priority. (To be continued......)
