Chapter 8 is in hot pursuit

Wading through the snow, Dong Ku and his party finally arrived at the black wind outlet.

Arriving at Taniguchi, Junko and Yazi put down the mountain dog's egg, drew their thick-backed sharp knives, and headed straight for the bushes next to them.

Huzi put the guns that the two put down together, and followed, and after a while, he picked up a handful of smooth tree strips and threw them in front of Shanzi and Goudan, who were sitting there, and reflexively ran in the direction of Junzi and the others.

Dong Ku didn't understand when he saw this, just now Junzi stopped and asked if it was okay to rest here, he didn't pay much attention to it, anyway, he had already arrived at the Black Wind Mouth, and it was okay to rest, so he agreed casually, and now it seems that they intended to stop.

Retracting his gaze from the back of the tiger who had disappeared into the bushes, Dong Ku saw that Goudan and Shanzi had taken off their cotton gloves and made things there.

After looking at it for a while, the oval-shaped, heel basket bottom thing made Dong Ku suddenly understand that they were weaving snowshoes, which were used to walk on the snow, increase the area of gravity, and avoid stepping on the collapsed snow. Looking at those tree slivers again, Dong Ku remembered a kind of basket called earthen basket sold in the Northeast Market when he was a child, wasn't it made of this kind of shrub and locust flower slivers called broom slivers?

Thinking of the snowshoes he wore when he was a child, Dong Ku remembered what Liu Zhong said on the road at that time, the black wind is strong, and the snow that floats (four sounds) is four or five meters deep.

Just thinking about it, the three of them hugged a broom strip and a locust flower strip, and came back from the snow in the woods.

"Brother Dong, we will be fine in a while, and we will finish making it up in a while, let's send Shanzi and Goudan through the black wind first, and then come back, let's wait for Brother Zhong and them together."

Shunzi skillfully twisted the strip to make it soft so that it would not break, and said to Dong Ku.

"Snow nest in the black wind?"

Dong Ku didn't answer, but asked directly.

"Snow Nest?"

Shunzi was surprised, pondered for a while, and said: "I don't know about Xue Dao, we are called snow hats here, I don't know if Lu Dao is the same thing as Brother Dong." ”

"Snow cap?"

Dong Ku's eyes lit up. In the Wanda Mountain Range area, the snow hat is the same as the snow nest and the snow shell, that is, the snow is very thick by the wind, and there is a shell on it, and people can walk on it.

Knowing what was inside, Dong Ku hurriedly took off the 38 big cover on the bag, handed it to Huzi, who was also weaving snowshoes, and said, "Huzi, you pay more attention to the back, I'll go in and take a look." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Huzi and Junzi to speak, Dong Ku quickly ran into a mountain pass with a width of more than 2,000 meters.

The Black Wind Pass is the location where the two peaks are connected at the foot of the mountain, and the location of the mountain pass is facing the north, and the terrain is on the high side, so it is not a watershed and there is no river. In the black wind, the wind blows snow particles and rolls on the bare rocky ground, blowing all the way inside.

Entering the black wind outlet, Dong Ku walked briskly on the ground where the snow particles were rolling, and after two or three minutes, he saw the snow.

The snow starts seven or eight hundred meters along the tuyere, and gradually increases all the way until it is out of sight; The gradually rising snow ridges are as flat as a lake, with no trees or shrubs, only rolling snow particles that roll on the snow shells that can already support people, all the way up to the ground. Visually, if the bottom is flat, the thickness of the snow should be more than five meters, or even ten meters is normal.

"That's it!"

After looking at the surrounding environment, this valley of Ma Pingchuan made Dong Ku's idea just now solid, and he turned his head and ran back......

Liu Zhong and the four of them were very embarrassed at this time. After four hours of running wild in the snow, several people no longer had the strength to run fast before; The family of four carried only one gun and one in their hands, and threw away everything else, even a grenade into the snow to lighten the load. That's it, they couldn't pull away from the little devil behind them, and they could still vaguely see the chasing figure.

"Chase! The pig's strength is about to run out! ”

Yamaguchi Yokoji was ruthless, spewing more than a foot long, desperately urging the soldiers to follow.

Along the way, he saw the guns and grenades discarded by the fleeing mountain people in front of him, and he knew that these mountain people were exhausted. Yamaguchi Yokoji, who vowed to catch these mountain people, ordered the soldiers to eat the No. 3 Yuan Qi Food and the grain essence that they only ate during the emergency march to maintain their physical strength, and if they were tired, they would also exhaust these people.

"Brother Zhong...... I can't run......"

Sun Tao's steps were a little staggering, and he was out of breath when he spoke.

"Taozi...... Work harder, climb over this mountain beam and you can enter the ...... The black wind is out......"

Mengzi dragged Sun Tao forward with one hand, drumming up.

"Work harder...... The little devil has no strength......"

Liu Zhong gasped, glanced back at the figure in the distance, and cheered.

Several people also knew that the road could not be stopped, and if it stopped, it must be dead, so they all moved their stiff legs by will, dragged the bushes, and climbed the trunk to the mountain beam.

In less than half an hour, when they were still more than a thousand meters away from the top of the mountain, the little devil behind them had already seen their backs through the cover of the woods.

"Shoot!!"

Yokoji Yamaguchi saw the figure in front of him and immediately ordered to shoot.

Let's hook......

The crisp sound of gunfire shook the trees as snow fell, and snow mist drifted in the north wind.

"Quick! The little devil caught up! ”

As soon as the gun rang out, Liu Zhong and the others were startled, like a frightened hare, burst out with their greatest potential, and they didn't even bother to go back, and tried their best to launch the most rearly sprint.

With a distance of six or seven hundred meters, plus the shelter of trees, even the Kwantung Army, which was very accurate in marksmanship, would not be able to fight Liu Zhong and them; But the sound of this gunfire gave Liu Zhong and them a strong sense of crisis, they had been chased for so long, and the little devil who was chasing them again shot and shot, which showed that they were not far behind.

"Yaga! Catch up!! ”

Seeing the sound of the gunshot, the figure that had been climbing step by step suddenly accelerated, and Yokoji Yamaguchi cursed loudly and ordered to speed up the pursuit.

On the hillside, chasing and fleeing, both gangs of people are desperate, and they all know that once the road is over the mountain beam, the downhill sprint will open or shorten the distance between the two sides. Especially the day. Army, as long as they go up the mountain beam, four or five hundred meters away, and have a wide field of vision, they will be sure to shoot down the target in front of them.

The gunfire also made Dong Ku and Junzi, who stayed at Taniguchi, extremely nervous.

As soon as Shunzi grabbed the gun in his hand, he was about to rush to the direction of the gunshot, Dong Ku stretched out his hand, shook his head, looked at the surrounding terrain, and said softly: "Shunzi, you stay here, take care of the good things, I will pick up your loyal brother and them." With that, he rushed to the direction of the gunshot.

Liu Zhong and the four of them worked hard, squeezing the most stubborn physical strength, and climbed the mountain beam with both hands and feet.

As soon as they got up the mountain beam, everyone saw the black tuyere. Liu Zhong gasped sharply, took off the 38 big cover on his back, took off the military coat, tightened the bullet wrapped in the little devil's shirt around his waist, put two 38 big covers on his back, spread the coat on the ground, and sat on it.

The three of them did the same thing, taking off their coats and putting them under their buttocks, pulling the collar of their coats with their hands, stretching their legs apart and stretching out to the front, and sliding down a hillside with few trees and shrubs.

The four of them rushed all the way up the snow waves, knocked down the shrubs and trees along the way, and opened a snow trail on the mountain slope, and rushed down a steep slope of more than 500 meters in less than two minutes.

Ignoring the fact that their faces were cut by tree strips and the blood flowing from the melted snow particles, the four of them stood up with their strength at the moment when the downward rush was a little slow, and they didn't even shake the snow on their coats, and while running, they put their coats on their bodies and ran all the way down the mountain.

Dong Ku ran forward quickly, the sound of the tree slatting made him judge Liu Zhong's accurate location, he changed the direction slightly, and after running for more than 30 meters, he quickly climbed a oak tree, poked out his gun, and searched in the general direction.

Soon, he saw the four people running wildly in the snow in the forest, and when he saw that the four of them were fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, the muzzle of the gun dropped, and he looked up the mountain along the clear trace.

The scope moved left and right, and did not find the figure of the little devil, Dong Ku completely relieved, quickly came down from the tree, and greeted the four people diagonally.

Liu Zhong and the four of them burst out at the maximum speed, squeezing the only little strength in their bodies cleanly, wading through the snow with their will, and running wildly with the inertia of the downhill.

Suddenly, Liu Zhong, who hit the head, hugged a tree all of a sudden, and his body popped on the trunk of the tree, he didn't care about hitting his chest tightness, shook his shoulders back, and the moment his coat slipped off, his hand was smooth, and he held a 38 cover in his hand, and just about to raise his gun, Dong Ku, who was 100 meters away, shouted: "This way!" ”

"Brother Dong Ku!"

"Brother Dong!"

"Brother Dong, they have nothing to do!"

The moment he saw Dong Ku waving his hand, Liu Zhong and the few people who had just gotten up due to the sudden stop and fell all shouted in surprise.

"Quick, this way!"

Dong Ku shouted again, then raised the gun and aimed it behind Liu Zhong and the others.

"Hurry!"

Liu Zhong took the gun round, put it on his back again, and dragged the coat that fell on the snow while running and urging.

"Let's go, Junko, they're fine!"

Mengzi shouted, dragged Sun Tao with his hand, and ran in the direction of Dong Ku.

The other two were not slow, they didn't care about wiping a handful of snow on their faces, and followed behind Liu Zhong without looking back......

"Let's go! Junko is waiting at the Black Wind Mouth! ”

After letting Liu Zhong and the four of them, Dong Ku still raised his gun and stared at the top of the mountain, until Liu Zhong and the others ran out of the mountain for a hundred and ten meters, he put away the gun and turned over to chase after the four people.

The moment Liu Zhong and the four saw Dong Ku, they already knew that they were fine, and while they were relieved, the excitement of the hope of escape made the four of them forget about their sore legs for the time being, and they ran wildly along the footprints that Dong Ku walked out, not even caring about the situation.

Just as Dong Ku and his figures disappeared into the woods, Yokoji Yamaguchi and his soldiers climbed the mountain beam.

"Yaga!"

Not seeing the figure being chased, Yamaguchi Yokoji panted, cursed, pointed to Liu Zhong where they slid down and shouted: "Slide down!" Slide down! ”

In the command, it was also a very tired day. The army couldn't take a breath, and like dumplings, he rolled over, and went down the mountain beam along the passage that Liu Zhong and the others slid out.

The moment the little devils went down the mountain, Dong Ku caught up with Liu Zhong and them, and said as he ran: "They have nothing to do, you hold on for a while, and we will eat these little devils immediately!" ”

"Eat...... Fall? ”

Liu Zhong panted, not understanding what Dong Ku meant.

"Hmm. Eat. Dong Ku said with certainty: "Since they dare to step into the land of China by force, then stay here and use the trees as fertilizer!" ”

"Fertilizer ......"

Although Liu Zhong and the others felt that Dong Ku's words were a bit full, the previous strong killing picture and the strange gun that could not shoot all bullets made several people not doubt that Dong Ku had this ability. Chewing on these words, they worked harder under their feet, running, expecting to see with their own eyes and clean up these man-eating jackals with their own hands......

PS: Genki Food No. 3 (made of chocolate + granulated sugar + green tea powder) grain essence (skimmed milk powder + sugar). This was the military rations of the Japanese Kwantung Army at that time, which was to maintain physical strength with food during the march, and did not fire and rebel during the march.
