Chapter 179: The Beard
I don't know how long it took, when Zhang Xiaoguang woke up, he found that someone was rubbing his face.
"Am I not dead yet?" Zhang Xiaoguang listened to his voice much smaller than he imagined.
"Captain, the commissar is awake!" This is Lei Gang's voice. Only now can Zhang Xiaoguang be sure of one thing, it was Lei Gang who massaged himself.
Then there were more disturbing sounds around, and Xiaoguang's thoughts slowly became a little clearer. By the way, it looks like we fell from the sky!
Trying to open his eyes wide, it took Xiaoguang a long time to adapt to the surrounding environment. This is an igloo with a bonfire in the middle, and Cao Laili also walked over.
"Commissar, are you feeling better?"
"Ah, I'm much better!" In fact, Zhang Xiaoguang can't feel his body at all now, and his whole body is numb. "Everyone's all right!"
"It's okay, the place where we landed is exactly a slope, plus there is thick snow, and people are there. It's just that when the rice porridge falls, it's head-down, and as a result, the arm is broken, and it's good to rest for a few days! ”
"It's okay!" Zhang Xiaoguang sat up, and only now did he feel that his soul and body were reunited. "How do I feel my face is swollen?"
"Haha, political commissar, you are more unlucky, an ice cube from the sky smashed into your face, knocked you unconscious, and even smashed one of your teeth!" Lei Gang smiled and handed over a tooth, "This is what I pulled out of your mouth, but I didn't rub it off for you!" ”
Listening to this stupid big man's words made Zhang Xiaoguang cry and laugh.
"Where's the pursuer?"
"They didn't come, I guess they're almost dead. I didn't expect the avalanche to be so scary! Cao Laili was also a little afraid when he talked about this, he hadn't experienced it, and he never knew the horror of the sky falling.
There were also Hoshino and Sun Le in the snow room, and both of them nodded with apprehension.
"Okay, everyone is fine, hurry up and eat something, let's take a rest!" Cao Laili chatted a few more words and went out.
Zhang Xiaoguang ate something and lay down again, and after about two hours, he felt a pain in his head, and he didn't know how long it took before he slowly fell asleep.
They didn't know that those pursuers were buried by an avalanche of more than 3,000 people, and the people behind rushed to rescue them for a long time, and only dug out more than 1,000 people, of which there were less than a fraction of the living people! Without tools, it was impossible to dig under the deep snow, and a whole two thousand people disappeared like this, including three division commanders.
Under the leadership of the deputy division commander, the rest of the people spent a week digging the entire basin, but they couldn't find Zhang Xiaoguang and others, they couldn't imagine that Xiaoguang and they were taken out of the basin by an ice sheet. A week later, the pursuers retreated, reporting to Tang Hongshen that the enemy had died in an avalanche.
Tang Hongshen was furious and asked them to come back and continue to look for it. People can't find it, but they have to find it. But the information is not here at all, where do they look for it? In the end, Tang Hongshen could only secretly send people to lurk in Weihai to spy on the news of Zhang Xiaoguang and others.
……
Early the next morning, Su Sanwa, who was standing guard, woke everyone up, Guo Jiming and Wang Dalong caught a few mice and a fox last night, and let everyone open the meat.
"Where are we going now?" All of them are now like beggars, all in disarray. The instruments on my body are broken, what night vision devices, compasses.
Cao Laili smashed open the broken watch in his hand, poured out the compass, and put it into the water, "It's Nan over there." ”
"Are we going south?" Zhang Xiaoguang had a headache when he thought of the seemingly boundless mountains and forests in the south, and he didn't know how everyone had come over these days.
"Let's wait until dawn to see, we don't know where we are."
……
A few hours later, when the day dawned, everyone climbed a high mountain, only to find that this seemed to be the west of the entire Great Xing'an Mountains.
"I propose that we go west, into Inner Mongolia, and then south, and return to our place from the west." Guo Jiming said as he looked at the tattered map.
Everyone agreed with this statement, first, there was no need to continue walking in the mountains and forests, and I don't know how many pursuers were searching for them in the mountains and forests; second, Tang Hongshen can be bypassed; Third, it is estimated that it is now possible to be very close to Inner Mongolia, of course, where it is necessary to go hard.
The people got their way and began to walk west, hoping to find a place to live. At the very least, look for an obvious landmark so that you know where you are.
Two days later, the beggar-like group finally came to the bottom of the mountain. Of course, except that the ground is a little flatter and the trees are gone, there is not much difference from being on a snowy mountain.
"Company commander, I think I hear the sound of horses' hooves?" Lin Tianhao said to Cao Laili.
Cao Laili was stunned for a moment, quickly snapped down, and put his ear on the ground to listen carefully. It's ten o'clock in the morning, and it's just starting to dawn, and it's not far away.
"There are a lot of horses ahead, and I can't tell how far away we are!" Cao Laili hadn't heard of the ground on the snowfield, "Let's find a place to hide first!" ”
But as soon as the words fell, everyone found that there was a person running in front of them!
Can one person run out of the sound of a herd of horses? Everyone was confused.
This man ran closer, lying on the ground and panting! Let's take a closer look, this is a bearded man, who doesn't seem to be very old, wearing a down jacket, which makes people feel relatively young, and behind this bearded man, there is the rumbling sound of horses' hooves that can already be heard!
"Prepare for battle!" Cao Laili ordered loudly.
All of them raised their bayonets and other weapons. The bullets were gone, the guns were actually broken during the avalanche, and only the bayonets were still faithfully defending their owners.
Lei Gang and Lei Tong were at the front.
Soon, the figure of the cavalry ran through the dim light!
There were a lot of cavalry on the opposite side, estimated to be forty or fifty, and they were actually wearing blue and red clothes, the blue ones were shoulder pads and heart goggles, and the shoulders and chests were red, and there was a pointed golden hat on the head, how did you look like the dress of the emperor in the past!
"Have we crossed over?" Even Lin Tianhao's brain couldn't turn around!
"They are Mongolian cavalry!" Cao Laili turned around and shouted, "This is not Inner Mongolia, we have arrived in Mongolia, everyone be careful, they are not friendly to us Chinese!" ”
It was too late, but it was too fast, and the cavalry quickly ran over, with swords in their hands, and surrounded them in the middle!
A man who seemed to be the leader, Ili said in a hurry, and two soldiers got off their horses to take the bearded young man away. But the bearded young man resisted fiercely and scuffled with the two soldiers!
What is surprising is that these two soldiers are actually no match for this exhausted bearded man, and he was knocked down by the bearded man in three or two strokes!
Three more soldiers came down from the horse to help, but this time the bearded man was even more ruthless, snatched a knife, and slashed two soldiers to death!
Zhang Xiaoguang and the others felt that this bearded man was dead, and it was estimated that the other party would chop him into pulp!
But what was surprising happened, as if the soldiers did not dare to hurt the beard, finally used the rope of the horse, and forced the beard to be put up, and then tied up and let him sit on the horse of a dead master!
After the beard was placed, the leader of the cavalry turned around to look at Zhang Xiaoguang and the others who had been affected by Chiyu.
Obviously, the guns in the hands of Zhang Xiaoguang and others made them have some scruples, after all, I don't know why, these cavalrymen didn't bring guns.
"Erie whoa!" The leader said loudly to Zhang Xiaoguang and the others, as if he was asking something.
Everyone did not dare to answer, Cao Laili had already said just now that the Mongols were not friendly to the Chinese, and no one knew that this leader would suddenly attack because they were Chinese.
Guo Jiming's eyes rolled and he stepped forward, "Ahh While pointing to his ears and mouth, he pointed out some sign language!
Zhang Xiaoguang, Lei Gang and others saw that Guo Jiming was pretending to be deaf and mute, and they were very surprised that Guo Jiming could use sign language. Cao Laili and the others were very calm, it seemed that they had known for a long time, and Xiaoguang and the others hurriedly cooperated and did not speak.
The cavalry didn't expect these people to be deaf and mute, so he was taken aback, frowned and thought about it, and said a few words while gesturing. Now everyone can understand by looking at the gestures, it turns out that this cavalry leader is going to take them back!
Everyone looked at each other, and Cao Laili nodded to Zhang Xiaoguang. Zhang Xiaoguang thought about it and nodded.
The cavalry leader nodded in agreement when he saw that the strangers were all in agreement, and gestured again to ask them to hand over their weapons. This Cao Laili and the others couldn't bear it, and they all shook their heads desperately.
I don't know what the cavalry leader cursed a few words, gestured for them to follow, and began to ride back.
While the cavalry was not paying attention, Lei Gang asked Guo Jiming softly, "Company commander, do you know sign language?" ”
"What is taught in the army when you are on a mission, don't talk." Guo Jiming said softly.
"Attention, everyone, our purpose is for them to take us out of the snowfield, and when we reach the road or a human settlement, we will sneak away." Cao Laili secretly took care of everyone, so that everyone was psychologically prepared.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and everyone followed the cavalry back for less than three hours, and they encountered a lot of cavalry, surrounded by a luxurious carriage. This made Cao Laili's face ugly, and it seemed that it was not so easy to slip away.
The cavalry leader brought the bearded man to the front of the carriage, and the door of the carriage, which looked like a yurt, opened, and a rich middle-aged man stuck his head out of it, pointed at the beard, and cursed loudly!
The bearded man seemed to be very unconvinced, and he also yelled at the rich middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man who provoked him got out of the shed, raised his hand and gave the bearded man a big slap!
"It seems to be a family matter!" Qin Yun said softly.
"Don't talk, watch out!" Cao Laili shouted in a low voice.
Everyone watched the two quarrel for a while, and for some reason, the two suddenly began to point at Zhang Xiaoguang and others and quarrel.
"What's the situation? What does this have to do with us? Zhang Xiaoguang suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart.
