Chapter 61: Welcome to the Mannerheim Line (3)

Too often, plans never catch up with change.

Zhang Heng waited until the gunfire was far away before touching the initial firefight, reducing the risk as much as possible, but he didn't expect an accident to happen, and the first batch of Soviet soldiers came back much earlier than expected.

At this time, there was no point in regretting and complaining, Zhang Heng could only lower his body and flee in the opposite direction.

And as soon as he moved, he was immediately discovered by those Soviet soldiers.

At this time, we have to boast about the logistics department of the Soviet Union, the winter war in the Soviet soldiers' uniforms are mainly khaki, in the vast white snow is as dazzling as the beetle in the land, it is difficult not to be shot, such a high casualty rate of the Soviet army is not unrelated to this.

Zhang Heng didn't need to look back to know that those Soviet soldiers must have picked up their guns and loaded, but fortunately, at this time, the long-distance running exercise he had been insisting on came in handy, and the distance was quickly widened after a burst, plus there were trees in the woods to block it, although there was a gunshot in his ears, the landing point of those bullets was far away from his body.

Zhang Heng didn't dare to take it lightly, and ran wildly all the way, until his physical strength was about to be exhausted, he stopped, holding on to a cedar tree and panting.

He knew that he should be safe for the time being, compared to those Soviet soldiers, who carried more weight than him, and he was afraid that he would not have much strength left after chasing a wave, so he should not be able to catch up in a short time.

Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Heng opened the rucksack and checked the results of his adventure, from top to bottom, there were personal hygiene items, spare footwraps, cutlery, and combat rations...... Footcloths are considered to be the special equipment of the Soviet army, which can play a certain role in keeping warm and reduce foot wear, as for the combat rations, they are mainly black bread, as well as sausages made of unknown meat and a small packet of black tea.

In addition, Zhang Heng also found two boxes of canned beef and a lighter, these two things, especially the latter was quite rare in the Soviet Union, where the light industry was relatively backward at that time.

Another dead Soviet soldier does not seem to have a red star on his cuffs, so it seems that the owner of this backpack is likely to be an officer.

It's a pity that on the battlefield, bullets are not high or low, or the more officers they are, the more likely they are to become the enemy's first target, and the unlucky man has received at least three or four bullets in his face, and he can't die more thoroughly.

Zhang Heng has always avoided looking at the bloody face when he picks up his clothes, but no matter what, he is still quite satisfied with this harvest, at least solving the most urgent cold protection and supply problems at the moment.

Then he checked the gun in his hand, China's gun control is extremely strict, except for some special professions, the vast majority of people have only seen the corresponding props in the movie, Zhang Heng is no exception, he doesn't know the name of this gun, he can only barely see that this should be a revolver, there are seven slots in the revolver, but it has been fired twice before, and now there are only five bullets left with bullets.

Only then did Zhang Heng realize that he had run too quickly just now, and he forgot to pick up the bullets on the armed belt when he took the gun.

But five shots are better than nothing.

It's a pity that there are only handsome shots of the protagonist loading and pulling the trigger in the movie, and the real pistol structure is much more complicated, Zhang Heng fiddled for a while, and he didn't know how to take out the two empty bullet cases, so he could only put the pistol close to his body first.

After opening the tin kettle and taking a few sips of water, his strength also regained some.

Because he was worried that the ghosts of the Soviet soldiers behind him would not be gone, Zhang Heng did not stay long, and continued to trek into the depths of the woods until night fell, and he was sure that he was basically out of danger.

The view at night was poor, and it was impossible for the Soviet soldiers, who were unfamiliar with life in the forest, and who were worried about the elusive Finnish partisans, to continue the search.

So Zhang Heng also stopped and decided to eat something first and trim it up.

He opened his backpack and pulled out a piece of brown bread.

This kind of bread first originated in Germany, and later spread to Eastern Europe and Russia, it is not really black, but the color is baked darker, don't underestimate this thing, the staple food of the German army and the Soviet army in World War II is black bread, according to records, this thing saved at least 400,000 Soviet lives, maintained the combat effectiveness of nearly 10 million troops, of course, the taste is another matter.

Zhang Heng cut a slice with the knife in the bag and tasted it, it felt sour and salty, the taste was very rough, and it was as hard as the legend, a little difficult to swallow, fortunately, he also experienced a period of lack of materials on the desert island at the beginning, if you don't consider the danger of war, the current environment is still much better than his first round start.

The only trouble is that he can't make a fire, it's not a technical problem, even if he doesn't have a lighter in a rucksack, Zhang Heng has the same way to raise the fire, but the fire in the dark night is too conspicuous, in the final analysis, he is too unfamiliar with this forest, whether it is the distribution of the Soviet army or the Finnish partisans, he is blind.

Zhang Heng didn't know where the enemy would emerge from, and he didn't even know whether his current direction was getting closer or farther away from the combat zone between the two sides, so far he was fully aware of how cruel the reality was, and how difficult it was for a person to survive this war.

The only thing that comforted him was the [Shadow Moment] in his arms, the three-minute shadow state was his hole card to save his life, but unfortunately there were only two chances, and Zhang Heng didn't plan to use it easily until the last moment.

He found a place to shelter from the wind, wrapped himself in a military coat, and was woken up three times in one night, and the winter of 1939 seemed to be one of the top 10 in Finnish history.

If it weren't for the Soviet sheepskin military uniform on his body, Zhang Heng was very suspicious that he wouldn't be able to survive even one night.

Finally, the sun rose the next day, and he didn't care about the danger, so he picked up some branches around him, and lit a small fire with a lighter, warming his hands and feet that were about to lose consciousness, and there was still half a pot of water left in the kettle, but after a night it had been completely frozen into an ice lump.

So Zhang Heng also threw the kettle to the fire, and by the way, he also roasted an unknown sausage in his backpack.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Heng reluctantly got up, extinguished the fire with snow, and at the same time picked up the sausage on the shelf and took a bite, probably because of the black bread base, the taste of the sausage was not as bad as imagined, and the inside was ...... It's not a common pork, beef and mutton, but it's still quite swallowable.

Zhang Heng was eating bread and sausages while thinking about his next plan, but unfortunately he didn't come up with any good solutions to his current situation until breakfast was over.

ps: Look at the message everyone is interested in yesterday's machine gun, that gun is a 7.62 mm caliber Degtyarov DP-28 squad light machine gun, designed in 1926, equipped with the Soviet Army in 1928, and appeared in the Winter War.
