Chapter 520: Cao Mingzhe is gone
PS: PS: First of all, thank you Mr. Liu for your tip.
Tomorrow Monday, please continue to support.
================================================================
You can't lie on the ground and wait to die. I scrambled to my feet, swatting the bugs around me with my torch and shouting, "Come close to me, light up the fucking flamethrower!" ”
The first to respond to the call was squad leader Liu, who was pale and limped to me. When I saw that the flamethrower he was carrying behind him was gone, I was so angry that I yelled, "Grass, where is the flamethrower?" ”
Squad leader Liu said with a white face: "It's broken." Didn't you break your walkie-talkie too? ”
I glared at him and shouted, "Then don't stand stupidly, incendiary bombs, signal flares, whatever he lights the fire first!" ”
I'm embarrassed to say that the walkie-talkie wasn't broken, but I threw it away. I'm stupid, carrying dozens of pounds of things to the ground, doesn't that increase the chance of death for myself? In order to keep the landing craft balanced, I threw away the walkie-talkie.
I waved at Jack and yelled, "Yankee, come here if you're alive, you've got bugs on your ass." ”
Jack was already on his feet, staggering around the wreckage of the landing craft looking for someone, and when he came over a man on his shoulder, I saw that it was a soldier and the European physicist.
Soon everyone gathered around me, and everyone who could move was lighting torches or holding flares. We huddle together like a hedgehog, and let the torches and phosphorus fire become our extended thorns.
The only person I could see who wasn't around was the fighter who had fallen flat. A fighter went to check and was out of gas. The brains are all flowing out.
But soon the warrior's body disappeared from view. The swarming mosquitoes block our vision and livelihood.
"Shoot a flare and see what's going on here!"
The noise of mosquitoes is too loud, and even if you talk to the people around you, you have to shout at the top of your voice.
"Brother Qiang, my arm is broken." A San, a Vietnamese, squeezed to my side and said.
"It's okay." I turned my head to him. "It doesn't affect the run. Wait a minute, follow me. We're probably going to run away. ”
"But what if I break my leg?" Squad leader Liu suddenly became nervous when he heard this.
"That's better, you're in charge of covering."
"Grass!" Squad Leader Liu cursed and pressed a flare on the flare gun.
'Bang'
A flare flickered and flew high into the air, and in a moment, a white light lit up above us.
The first thing that catches your eye is the cloud of insects pressed down from above, impermeable, like a whole piece of lead. Because there are so many of them, we can no longer see their gray-white individuals, only a piece of leaden gray with an astonishing density and thickness approaching us.
Relative to the swarm in the sky. The mosquitoes around us are simply stragglers, and the density and number are worth trying to break through.
However, I did not see a way out, nor did I find a way to break through. The number and density of mosquitoes around us are not large, compared to the army of mosquitoes at high places, and the actual number is still large enough to block our vision and make us invisible. At least I can't see the distance clearly.
I can see that this place is very large, definitely larger than the area behind the Hakka embankment. I couldn't see the sight in the distance, though. But there was nothing tall in the area where the flares could be seen. In other words, I don't see the edge of this space.
"Over there." Squad leader Liu suddenly shouted, "There's a hole over there." ”
I looked in the direction of squad leader Liu's finger, and at the end of the flare aperture, there really seemed to be a silver-gray bright spot.
"Radar Man!" I shouted and realized that the title was only in my imagination. The Hakka who has the ability to hear will not know that I am calling him.
"Miss Tang, ask your people to see what the highlights are over there!"
"He's not here!"
"Damn!"
I'm going crazy. Although we have not landed for a long time now, as far as the current situation is concerned, the people who have not gathered here will definitely not be able to withstand the big mosquitoes besieging from all sides.
And. Except for the fire burning in our circle like a fireball, there was no fire around us. Scattered into fragments of the landing craft, it is impossible to provide protection to anyone. People who are not with me at the moment will never be able to reach me.
"Count your own people and see who else is left behind!"
As soon as my shouting fell, Tang Yumo shouted, "We have one less person." Everyone else is. ”
Squad leader Liu also shouted: "We have one less person." ”
Jack: "The Europeans are still alive. ”
"Captain Cao is gone!"
Hearing Ah San's exclamation, I almost sat on the ground.
Cao Mingzhe is a very low-key person, even if he is the leader of this expedition, it is rare to see him giving orders, but I, a marginal person, have been exercising his duties on behalf of others.
But this does not mean that he is not important, on the contrary, his ability is the guarantee for us to survive.
I don't know what danger we're going to face next, but if we can't get out of the gate of eternal life in the end, then we'll have to go back the way we came. I estimate that there will be no second person who can climb the embankment from here, except for Cao Mingzhe.
Although I haven't seen the edge of this space yet, the space behind the Hakka embankment can be used as a reference for me. The endless mountain wall I didn't think I could climb.
"Lao Cao!" I shouted at the wreckage of the landing craft not far away, still faintly visible.
I knew there could be no response, I was just venting my grief. I also knew that we couldn't wait here, and that we had to move that way, whether that bright spot in the distance was a hole or not. Because to stay where you are is to wait for death.
The light of the flares lasted for a short time, and the space quickly returned to darkness.
"Gotta get out of here!" Jack and Tang Yu shouted at me in unison.
"I know!" I shouted and turned my face to Jack. "Throw a Molotov cocktail, I'm going to clear the way."
Jack looked at me in surprise. "I don't have that thing. I only have rope in my bag. ”
Depend on. Forget about it. The fat man was so angry with Jack that he didn't prepare a weapon for him.
I pulled an incendiary grenade out of my backpack and handed the pistol to Jack.
"If you see the fight, we don't have a few incendiary bombs. Liu Jizi, shoot another flare. ”
"Grass." Squad leader Liu was very dissatisfied with this title, and cursed and reloaded the flare gun.
"Brother Qiang, I don't have a guy either." Ah San looked at the M9 pistol in Jack's hand, and his eyes immediately widened.
"Aren't you crippled?"
"I've hurt an arm, but my right hand is fine."
"That's good, grab the torch and don't lose it."
"I ......"
I said to myself, there's only one arm left, what a mess for me. Besides, I don't have any extra to rob you.
'Bang'
As the flares lifted into the air, I shouted and threw the incendiary bombs into the air.
With just one shot, the incendiary bomb was detonated. This marksmanship is better than mine! (To be continued.) )
