Chapter 508 Wounded

Mei Ting has been observing, when she and the division commanders caught up from behind, the front had already started, Tang Qiu was not at the command headquarters, the battle situation was unknown, so he could only wait anxiously, from the messages that came and went, from the nervous expressions of the staff officers, he probably guessed that the front was not going well.

She heard that Tang Qiuli personally went to the front line, her heart has never been calm, her husband has not experienced the battlefield for a long time, as the supreme commander of the independent division, there is really no need to take such a risk, Mei Ting believes that the mountain tiger and the soldiers of the Special Guards will definitely be able to protect her husband's safety, but, I don't know why, her heart has never calmed down, and she has a very bad feeling for a while.

After witnessing the Sucheng bloodbath, Mei Ting sensitively found that her husband was like a different person, the sunny big boy in front of him in the past was gone, and the whole person fell into an extreme self-blame and suppressed anger, his temper became irritable and irritable, taciturn, his eyes were cold from time to time, and the murderous aura on his body was terrifying, and Mei Ting felt very uncomfortable when she was with him.

And today, she witnessed the other side of her husband again, her mind was blank with shock, and the strangeness made her a little scared, but she had a deeper understanding of Tang Qiuli, under her husband's confident and strong appearance, the weakest part of her heart was the weakest, and she suffered great pain and self-blame, but Mei Ting didn't know how to comfort him, his heart was closed to everyone, including as his closest wife.

Mei Ting couldn't believe it, after countless wars, on the battlefield of life and death, fighting for several years, accustomed to seeing corpses all over the field, rivers of blood, and the slaughter of 3,000 civilians in Sucheng, she could change him, Mei Ting would never believe it, but her husband had indeed changed, his heart had been filled with revenge, and the wisdom and calmness of the past were gone.

The husband has changed, and the mountain that has given her stability and reliance has shaken slightly, and Mei Ting doesn't know what to do.

The mountain tiger walked towards her, Mei Ting knew what he meant, at this time, only she could say a few words, she nodded lightly towards the mountain tiger.

At this time, everyone in the command headquarters was silent, they didn't know how to face the anger of the division commander, this anger was the product of losing their minds, Mei Ting came to Tang Qiuli's side, and looked at her husband gently: "Qiuli, you should consider the opinions of Brigade Commander Ma and Brigade Commander Jiang, you are too calm?" The last sentence is reproach.

Tang Qiuli glanced at Mei Ting coldly: "This is the battlefield, please call me my position, you are not the person in charge of the combat department, you have no right to ask about military affairs, Director Mei, you have exceeded your authority" These words were unceremoniously, Mei Ting's body shook, and she didn't hold back her tears and didn't come out of her eyes, her husband became unreasonable, in front of so many people, embarrassing herself, it was the first time, Mei Ting groaned in her heart and asked herself, what happened to Qiu Li?

In the command headquarters, there was an unbearable silence, and the sound of artillery outside became more and more intense, and the chief of staff of the Second Brigade broke into the headquarters full of gunsmoke, "Brigade commander, the Japanese army launched a counterattack on our forward position, and the Japanese artillery who had never shown their faces, with fierce artillery fire, covered our position, and the front-line troops suffered heavy casualties, I have ordered the troops to withdraw to the second position, and ask the brigade commander to indicate the next action target" As soon as he finished speaking, a few shells fell near the headquarters, like the lights and shadows of beans swaying, Stretch and deform everyone's shadow.

Tang Qiuli gave an order with a blank expression: "The Second Brigade and the Huangyadong Garrison Brigade can evacuate the battle, and the guard brigade will follow me to continue the attack," After speaking, with a swift movement, he grabbed the Tang Dragon gun on the table and stepped out of the command headquarters, the others did not react, and Mei Ting rushed out of the house after him.

In the night, the Japanese artillery fire, as fierce as a volcanic eruption, covered the position of the troops, the Japanese army cautiously stepped across the frozen river, however, the number of Japanese troops involved in the attack was not very large, thanks to the Japanese artillery, the frozen river, blasted out of ice holes, slowed down the movement of the Japanese army.

Tang Qiuli ran quickly, behind him, was Mei Ting, who was in hot pursuit, and then behind, a team of guards led by the mountain tiger, the cannonball exploded nearby, blowing up the dirt and splashing all over the body, Mei Ting didn't consider her danger at all, she was worried about her husband, and shouted desperately: "Qiuli, be careful"

shouted a few times in a row, in the deafening cannon sound, he vaguely heard his wife's anxious call, thinking it was a hallucination, and inadvertently glanced back, under the light of the fire of the shell explosion, his wife's figure flew over lightly, her long hair fluttered like a flag, her mouth was shouting, and the dust of the shell explosion sometimes cut off Tang Qiuli's sight.

"Mei Ting, lie down quickly, it's dangerous" Tang Qiuli shouted desperately, turned around and ran over to meet his wife.

At this glance, he saw the situation that made him unbelievable and his heart and gall were broken, it was his lifelong pain and self-blame, and it also made him be blinded by hatred.

"Mei Ting" Tang Qiuli let out a heart-rending scream, a sharp pain in his left arm and cheek, and then lost consciousness, his body was crooked, completely ignored, and continued to run, the smoke and dust dispersed, and he could no longer see the running, beautiful and youthful figure, the shrapnel whistling around, the huge explosion, and the shouts of the mountain tigers who came later, all of them could not be heard.

In his ears, it was like millions of bees roaring, Venus was flying in front of him, and he couldn't see a single qiē, only the figure of his wife before she disappeared was firmly imprinted in his mind, Tang Qiuli was almost collapsed by great fear, and his body seemed to have lost its weight, wandering lightly in the air.

He and the mountain tiger arrived at the place of the explosion just now almost at the same time, on the ground, except for the huge crater or crater, Tang Qiuli was sleepwalking on the ground, subconsciously looking for it in the soil, he didn't believe it, his youthful and energetic wife disappeared in front of his eyes like this, why was God so cruel, he lost a beloved woman, and after loving again, he was cruelly taken away.

No, still no, Tang Qiuli's fingers were already oozing blood, but he didn't feel it at all, the mountain tiger couldn't bear to see him lose his soul, and wanted to pull him up, but he threw him away, the strength was so great, even the mountain tiger was pushed back two steps, and looked at him silently, with helpless regret in his eyes.

"Captain, I've found Director Mei" The shout of surprise suddenly sounded on the side, and the soldiers of the special guard team found Mei Ting, the huge shock wave generated by the explosion mercilessly flipped her to the ground, and the splashed dirt buried her body, if it wasn't for an exposed hand, it would not be easy to find her.

Tang Qiuli was like a mortal man, hearing the news of the amnesty, his steps staggered, but he ran over quickly, the soldiers had already pulled Mei Ting out of the dirt, Tang Qiuli suddenly rushed to his wife's side, Mei Ting's situation was not optimistic, her beautiful eyes were closed, her face was pale, and her arms and body were scratched by shrapnel in many places.

The most lethal thing is that on her back, there is a piece of shrapnel stuck diagonally, extremely irregular corners, as hideous and sharp as shark teeth, Tang Qiuli carefully picked up his wife, feeling as light as a cloud, weak as a willow branch, and carefully wiped the mud on his face for her, the blood flowing from the wound on his left arm and face, and the blood of his wife, soaked his military uniform.

The mountain tiger had already ordered the soldiers to hurry up and find the doctor with the army, and the remaining guards built a human wall around Tang Qiuli and Mei Ting, and the cannonballs exploded like crazy near and far, Tang Qiuli didn't dare to move, afraid that his wife's extremely weak heartbeat would suddenly stop with his movements.

The military doctor rushed over and gave Mei Ting a hemostatic injection, and dealt with other wounds on his body, the piece of shrapnel, the doctor didn't dare to move, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, looked at the division commander who was already in a state of numbness, and said cautiously: "Division commander, Director Mei's situation is very dangerous, the hemostatic needle can only temporarily relieve the speed of bleeding, we must do surgery immediately, take out the shrapnel, and urgently need a large amount of plasma, but we don't have the conditions." ”

After speaking, he hung his head deeply, as if he was very derelict in his duties, feeling guilty for his powerlessness, he couldn't bear to look at the eyes of the division commander, those eyes like dead ashes, made the heart of the military doctor contract violently a few times.

At this moment, he had calmed down, and his wife's unstoppable blood washed his senses, "Mountain Tiger, convey my order, the troops immediately get out of the battle, alternate cover, get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese army, and enter the Huangya Cave base area, Liu Chun's cavalry brigade, immediately stop moving closer here, turn to the direction of Matian, hide and standby, guard brigade, immediately escort Mei Ting to Huangya Cave, telegraph to them, immediately prepare for surgery, go"

Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming, who received the order, breathed a sigh of relief, the division commander finally changed his mind, it was not too late, the encirclement of the Japanese army had not yet been finally formed, and the road to the direction of Huangyadong had not yet been cut off by the Japanese troops who had made a roundabout, but the shape was not optimistic, and there was only a passage less than ten kilometers wide.

If they are entangled by the Japanese army in front of them, the troops are bound to forcibly break through, and in the face of the Japanese troops pressing from all directions, they will not be able to retreat at all, if they withdraw from the battlefield like this, the Japanese troops behind will pursue frantically, and the troops will fight and walk, and there will be more and more Japanese troops chasing after them, and they will not be able to retreat, they will not be able to get rid of them, and the troops will be scattered again.

Three cars, the soldiers of the two detachments of the guard brigade, under the leadership of the mountain tiger, were responsible for escorting Mei Ting, sitting on the car, the eight soldiers held the stretcher tightly, and used their bodies to alleviate the pain of Mei Ting's bumps, Tang Qiuli looked at the mountain tiger fixedly: "Mountain tiger, use your life as a guarantee, you must send Mei Ting to Huangya Cave safely, please"

Shanhu didn't say anything, just nodded heavily, this kind of heavy trust, he can afford it, the car disappeared into the night, Tang Qiuli's heart has been taken away, just now, the military doctor solemnly told him, the division commander must go back to Huangya Cave with us, your injury is not optimistic, and you must operate immediately, otherwise, the wound is infected, and there is a risk of amputation.
