33 The devil shows the way
Psychological attacks are far more violent and hurtful than physical attacks.
When Adjutant Zhan left the village, he ordered the local security team to arrest An Xiaosan's family and use them as hostages to blackmail the elder Wei and his party on the top of the mountain.
Elder Wei continued to look down the hillside, Adjutant Zhan had already ordered Battalion Commander Fan to lead his troops to set up machine guns and aim at An Xiaosan's family, and he himself also took a rifle to aim at the place where Elder Wei was hiding, and pulled the trigger as soon as the other party appeared.
The security captain pressed An Xiaosan's family to his knees, and his men pointed their guns at the people.
Lu Er continued to shout: "An Xiaosan, if you don't come out and surrender, I'll kill your mother first!" ”
An Xiaosan, who was hiding behind the boulder, was held down by Sun Deqiang, a gunshot rang out, Xiao An's mother was killed by a bullet, Xiao An's father and two brothers struggled desperately, but they were held down by the soldiers of these security regiments.
Sun Deqiang covered Xiao An's mouth, and anger also appeared in Pang Hutou's eyes, and he looked at the elder Wei.
Elder Wei held his rifle and wanted to pull the trigger, but he didn't know who to shoot?
He suddenly saw a ghost behind these soldiers of the security regiment, taking the soul of An Xiaosan's mother into his pocket.
"Sun Deqiang, Lao Pang, hurry up and take Xiao An away, I'll stay to cover you!" Elder Wei opened his mouth and ordered.
Pang Hutou asked rhetorically: "We have no way back?" ”
Sun Deqiang said: "It's better for us to fight with the enemy, and if we can kill one, it's one!" ”
"No, as soon as the enemy discovers our numbers, they will launch a pursuit of our comrades, and it is not yet time for us to give our lives!" Elder Wei said with a solemn face.
The gunshots under the hillside rang out again, and An Xiaosan's father was also shot, and now An Xiaosan couldn't bear it anymore, broke free of Sun Deqiang's hand, and wanted to shout, but as soon as his head emerged from behind the boulder, he was knocked unconscious by the butt of a gun by the elder Wei.
Sun Deqiang looked puzzled, and Da Lao Wei continued to order: "Lao Pang, you quickly take Xiao An to the top of the mountain and retreat, Deqiang, you stay and help me!" ”
Pang Hutou hurriedly responded, picked up Xiao An and retreated to the top of the mountain, Sun Deqiang took a spear and aimed at the enemy at the bottom of the hillside.
After Lao Pang carried Xiao An away, Da Lao Wei pulled the trigger on the captain of the security regiment and shot him dead, and the remaining soldiers of the security regiment immediately made a mess and wanted to flee down the mountain, but Battalion Commander Fan had already shot a warning, and his soldiers also fired at the other party where Da Lao Wei was hiding.
The bullets whistled and fired, so that the elder Wei and Sun Deqiang couldn't raise their heads.
Some of the soldiers took the opportunity to throw grenades at the elder Wei and them, but the grenades landed on the hillside and exploded.
Elder Wei closed his eyes, pointed the muzzle of the gun at Adjutant Zhan's right thigh, and pulled the bolt.
Battalion Commander Fan commanded his soldiers to attack the top of the hill, getting closer and closer, and soon came into the range of grenades.
A gunshot rang out, and a bullet came out of the barrel of the Mauser rifle, passed through the enemy on the hillside, and into the right thigh of Adjutant Zhan.
Adjutant Zhan screamed, Battalion Commander Fan immediately turned his head to investigate, but Adjutant Zhan shouted at him: "Leave me alone, throw a grenade on the top of the mountain!" ”
Battalion Commander Fan personally pulled down the string of a grenade and was about to throw it towards the top of the mountain, but another bullet hit, hitting the grenade in his hand, and it exploded, leaving Battalion Commander Fan with only half of his head left, and these soldiers trembled with fear.
"Keep attacking! Pull the mortars up and shoot at the bandits at the top of the hill! Adjutant Zhan endured the severe pain and scolded loudly.
A military doctor rushed over and used gauze to stop the bleeding from the wound on his thigh.
Adjutant Zhan said to the military doctor: "Is there a painkiller injection, hurry up and give me one!" ”
The military doctor said: "Sir, I only have one procaine here, and the pain-relieving effect is average, and the effect of the medicine can only last for an hour!" ”
"Inject me!" Adjutant Zhan ordered.
Lu Er grabbed him and asked, "Sir, what about these family members of the bandits?" ”
"Kill, kill, and shoot at the mountain!" Adjutant Zhan shouted.
Two soldiers took out the improvised stretcher, placed it on it, and carried it down the hill, while two artillerymen rushed up the hill with a mortar.
There was a loud roar of gunfire on the top of the mountain, and the old Wei fled towards the top of the mountain with Sun Deqiang, and joined Lao Pang, and the boulder they had just hid in was blown into stone powder in an instant.
The elder Wei protected Lao Pang and Sun Deqiang under him, and then shouted to the ghost in front of him: "You won't just watch me being blown up, will you?" ”
This ghost cha did not change his face in the artillery fire, and asked calmly: "This is all self-inflicted, besides, the descendants of the ghost sect are not here!" ”
"But if I die, I'm afraid that the descendants of the Ghost Sect won't live long!" Elder Wei argued.
The ghost pointed to the hillside below.
Elder Wei hurriedly closed his eyes and looked at the hillside, and saw that this steep hillside had been blown out by a cannonball with a basin-sized hole, and it was pitch black inside.
As soon as he said that, he drifted down the hillside, and a gust of wind wrinkled and blew up the weeds and stone chips on the mountain, and the soldiers could not open their eyes.
Da Lao Wei took the opportunity to say to Sun Deqiang and Lao Pang: "You hold on to my back coat and take Xiao An, I know there is a safe hiding place!" ”
The two were busy, Sun Deqiang carried Xiao An, grabbed Lao Pang's left hand, Da Lao Wei held a rifle, Lao Pang's right hand grabbed the back of his coat, and rushed forward and slid down the steep hillside.
When Xiao An was also dragged into the cave by Sun Deqiang, the wind outside stopped, but the gravel and weeds on the top of the mountain slid down the hillside, and soon buried the cave.
Thinking that the enemy was still hiding on the top of the hill, the artillerymen continued to fire at the top of the hill.
The debris from the shells fell, burying the hole in the hillside even more realistically.
After daybreak, the top of the mountain had been blown half a foot away by shells, revealing a bare mountain rock, as white as bones.
Guo Jianquan, the deputy commander of the first battalion, led his soldiers to rush to the top of the mountain and began to search for traces of the enemy.
An artilleryman said to him: "Battalion Commander Guo, our mortars are so powerful, let alone the enemy, even tanks will be blown up by our shells, and there is no other way down the mountain on the top of this mountain, these bandits must have been blown to pieces!" ”
Battalion Commander Guo had a thin face, dark eyes, a big nose, and affirmed: "Impossible, even if these chaotic parties are blown to pieces by shells, there will be a smell of blood left in the air and on the ground, and no matter how powerful the shells are, it is impossible to blow up people's bones without leaving traces!" ”
The little fat artilleryman said: "Battalion Commander Guo, the brothers have fought all night, and now we haven't even seen the enemy's hair, should we eat some dry food first, rest for a while and then continue the search?" ”
Battalion Commander Guo said angrily: "We haven't even seen the remains of the enemy, how can we report the results of the battle to our superiors?" ”
The artilleryman hurriedly said: "Then we can't be blamed all, the top of the mountain is so big, if they were still alive, they would have escaped down the mountain a long time ago!" ”
