A large group of soldiers in white uniforms and black leather boots poured out of the verdant mountains and forests on the side of the road, urged by several officers in navy blue uniforms, across the road, and rushed to the opposite hill.

"Rush over!" Yang Shengji shouted at the driver, pulled out the pistol on his waist, and didn't want to immediately spew out several blazing tongues of fire in the mountains and forests, and a circle of sparks suddenly burst out of the car. A few bullets broke through the car window, and the broken glass and the driver's blood and brain splattered, Shangguan Huaiyuan couldn't dodge, and hit the road with Yang Shengji, his blood red brain was white and his face was white.

The truck lost control, the front of the car was crooked, and it ran into a half-human-high bush, although it did not overturn, but it really became the target of the other party, and the more blazing fire was concentrated and strafed, and the bullet easily passed through the canvas canopy in the rear compartment, and shot the ** people inside into a sieve along with the radio......

"Are you still alive?" Yang Shengji poked Shangguan Huaiyuan beside him with the barrel of his gun.

"If you live, I will live." Shangguan Huaiyuan spat on the blood-stained saliva, trying to wipe off the plasma that was covering his eyelids.

The two cats were in a small puddle on the side of the truck, and the bullets were still clanging on the truck, or whizzing overhead, or knocking down a few locks of branches and leaves of the bushes next to them, but they couldn't hit them, for the time being.

"Isn't there a post on the top of the mountain? So many hairs came over and didn't see an alarm! Shangguan Huaiyuan said indignantly, and his hand reached into the puddle, and the entire water surface was dyed red at once.

"Maybe I fell asleep, maybe I was erased by the Maozi Scout before dawn."

"Looks like I'm asleep, look—"

Looking at the nearest hill on his side, he saw a puff of gray smoke rising into the sky, and occasionally one or two dazzling red flares were raised.

"The smoke grenades alone can't make that big puff of smoke, they must have burned the pine branches—don't worry, the mobile combat team we just passed. When you see a signal, you will rush to the ground immediately. Yang Shengji gave Shangguan Huaiyuan and cheered himself up.

Shangguan Huaiyuan glanced back at the truck that was still ping-pong, and his expression was gloomy: "My people don't know if there is a living ...... in the road."

Yang Shengji didn't care about this: "Don't worry about this, you can't stay here for a long time, it's bad if Maozi comes to search for loot - do you have a codebook or something left in the car?" ”

"The codebook is in my head." Shangguan Huaiyuan nodded his forehead.

"Alright, now I'm going over there—do you see the big fir tree?"

"See."

"There's a bigger bush over there, go take shelter first, wait for help to come - we can't go together, we have to have someone to cover behind."

"I'll cover." Shangguan Huaiyuan replied very simply.

Yang Shengji wiped the sticky mustache on the side of his mouth with his sleeve, shook his head and smiled: "No." You have to get to Shelikhov alive, the commander is waiting for you, not me. I count to five, and you rush over. ”

"You go first, I'll cover." Shangguan Huaiyuan insisted.

"One, two......" Yang Shengji put a pistol against Shangguan Huaiyuan's nose while counting, "I don't need someone to die with me, and besides, those who stay behind may not necessarily die." ”

Shangguan Huaiyuan gritted his teeth: "Take care, brother!" I'll wait for you. ”

"Five-run for me!"

Under Yang Shengji's sharp urging, Shangguan Huaiyuan had tears in his eyes, and lowered his head and leaned over, like an arrow off the string. Jump out of the puddle and step on the summer flowers and reeds. Stumbling and tumbling, it felt like an hour, or two, or an instant—at last we reached the bottom of the great cedar tree, which was a large thicker and wider thicket than before.

The sound of gunfire came from behind, and Shangguan Huaiyuan reflexively fell behind the tree, hurriedly pulling out the gun at his waist, but he couldn't help but shake his hands and couldn't pull out the gun.

Hands in front of the map. At this time, it turned into an electric chaff sieve, and Shangguan Huaiyuan was even sweating and tearful.

For what? Why is it that his face is covered with blood, but he doesn't feel anything, but he wants to draw a gun to defend against the enemy. A puddle of soft mud? Shame on the emperor! Garbage, garbage – poke me to death!

Just as Shangguan Huaiyuan was ashamed and blamed himself, several figures flashed from the bushes. The muzzle of the black hole pointed at it together.

—

"Kill me."

As soon as the words came out, Shangguan Huaiyuan had already recognized that the other party was his own person.

"Lieutenant, you're alone?" The leading submachine gunner was clearly not short-sighted either.

Shangguan Huaiyuan's body was shocked, and he got up like crazy: "Quick, go to the car!" Yang Shengji...... Hurry up and save Staff Officer Yang! ”

……

After 3 o'clock, Shelikhov, equipped with the headquarters of the 4th Army.

Army Commander Xing Xiaoqiang glanced at Shangguan Huaiyuan, who was still covered with blood in his hair, and asked lightly, "Just you?" ”

"Yes, Counselor Yang ......"

"Sit."

After saying this, Xing Xiaoqiang raised his hand, turned around, and looked up at the colorful map on the wall.

"I and Counselor Yang's father are friends of life and death."

"Commander's ......"

"But it doesn't matter at all right now." Xing Xiaoqiang said categorically.

"I understand."

"Do you really understand?" Xing Xiaoqiang tilted his head slightly.

"The enemy is trying to get back behind our army with lightly armed troops, and the enemy force I encountered just now was only exploring the way."

"Then you can also see that they can't succeed." Xing Xiaoqiang said disapprerovingly.

"They almost succeeded. The method of setting up sentinels at the commanding heights seems to be effective, but in fact, the view is obscured by the forest, and the enemy is approaching and may not be visible in front of him. Shangguan Huaiyuan was blunt.

"Are you commanding me on behalf of the Front?" Xing Xiaoqiang was angry in his words.

"Don't dare, I'm just talking about things."

After being silent for half a minute, Xing Xiaoqiang raised his hand and snapped his fingers, signaling Shangguan Huaiyuan to approach.

"Look at the wall, the enemy's three armies are approaching here from the south and west."

"I know it."

"Arshan's side has stopped issuing supplies for his own army, and the Praetorian Cavalry Corps and the 3rd Infantry Corps, as well as the 5th Infantry Army and the 3rd Cavalry Corps, which are scheduled to be reinforced in the second stage, will have to receive supplies from the Baikal side in the future. The 40-kilometer carriage road from Shelikhov to Baikal is our lifeline, which will never be cut off by the enemy. ”

Xing Xiaoqiang turned to face Shangguan Huaiyuan, his eyes were like torches: "My arrangement may not be able to completely block the infiltration of the enemy, but it can definitely ensure the smooth flow of the line of communication, my task is to crush the enemy's main force in the encirclement, not to build an iron wall, and not a single ant will be allowed to slip through!" ”

After speaking, he sighed and patted Shangguan Huaiyuan on the shoulder: "Yang Shengji, that kid, is too impatient, if you come back with the baggage convoy, maybe there will be no trouble, the convoy is guarded by chariots, even if you encounter enemy brigade and regiment-level lightly armed troops, it is enough to protect yourself." This is also fate, each mobile combat team will regularly send a patrol team composed of two or three vehicles to patrol the defense area under its jurisdiction, and if you encounter a patrol group at that time, you will not ......."

Shangguan Huaiyuan bowed his head and said: "I have witnessed the strength of the mobile combat team, in the face of the Russian infantry without artillery support, it is a unilateral slaughter of the battalion-level troops, and it should be enough to defeat the regiment-level troops, even if it is a whole brigade and a whole division, as long as there is no artillery, a mobile combat team alone can drag on for several hours." ”

"Want to see more?"

"Of course, that's the fundamental purpose of my trip."

As he spoke, there was a rumbling sound outside the window, which became more and more rapid, beating on the eardrums of everyone in the room, and exhilarating the cranial nerves connected to the eardrums......

"Young man, go wash your face first, drink saliva, and the show is about to be staged."
