Chapter 343: Ambush
"There's an ambush." Wei Jin also said.
There is an ambush? How so?
Although it is close to the battlefield, it is at the rear of the battlefield.
Even if there are thieves, there are only local bandits and robbers, or people who are forced to helpless.
But these people would never dare to touch the things of the army.
The people led by Xu Zhengyong were dressed in military uniforms and had the banner of the army standing tall high, how could they ambush them?
Just when Xu Zhengyong was suspicious, several arrows shot out from the mountains on both sides of the front, heading towards their team transporting grain and grass.
Xu Zhengyong subconsciously turned around to protect Wei Ruo, but there was a figure that moved faster than him.
Wei Ruo didn't even realize what was happening, and his body fell into a sturdy embrace.
Wei Ruo raised his head and saw Wei Jinyi's side face.
Immediately afterward, he saw that the knife he had drawn out of nowhere was resisting the arrows that were being fired, and the piercing sound of the metal arrow and the knife colliding sounded in Wei Ruo's ears.
Xu Zhengyong glanced at Wei Jinyi and found that his martial arts were extremely high, and after making sure that Wei Ruo was safe by his side, he had no worries.
Xu Zhengyong drew his saber and ordered the soldiers he brought: "Break through with me!" ”
After speaking, Xu Zhengyong took the lead and rushed to the hillsides on both sides of the road.
The soldiers followed closely and drew their swords to meet the battle.
Wei Ruo, who was protected by Wei Jinyi, hugged Wei Jinyi's waist tightly with both hands, and his body was close to Wei Jinyi's chest.
She knew that what she had to do now was to be obedient and not to make a mess.
Although he couldn't do much physically, Wei Ruo's eyes looked at the slopes on both sides to determine the location and approximate number of ambushers.
There were about twenty men on each side, and they were condescending, occupying the vantage point.
If you forcibly break through with your physical body, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses.
After understanding the general situation, Wei Ruo had a countermeasure in his heart.
"Second brother, there is a red wooden box on the first carriage with black spherical things in it, you set them on fire and throw them on the mountains on both sides." Wei Ruo also said to Wei Jin.
After listening to Wei Ruo's words, Wei Jinyi's eyes glanced at the first carriage behind him.
Then he jumped a few times with Wei Ruo in his arms, came to the carriage, and picked up a knife to split the ropes and linen wrapped in the carriage.
In addition to containing grain, there is also a red wooden box.
After opening the box, it was the spherical thing Wei Ruo said, black and with a line on each one.
Wei Jin also put Wei Ruo down and let him hide under the car.
Wei Ruo obediently squatted on the ground, took out a fire fold from his arms and handed it to Wei Jinyi.
"Fire fold, light that lead."
Without hesitation or questioning, Wei Jin also quickly took the fire fold handed over by Wei Ruo, lit the fuse, and then threw it, a flying kick, kicking it towards the ambush position on the mountain.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "bang", which shook the entire sheep intestine path.
Xu Zhengyong, who was charging, and the soldiers of the squad he led were blindfolded.
When everyone was shocked, Wei Jin also kicked out the second and third ......
One explosion after another rang out.
The sound was so loud that it was like a landslide cracking the ground.
This place is located between two mountains, and the two mountains have a magnifying effect on the sound, making the sound of the explosion particularly loud.
After a while, there was no movement on the hillsides on both sides.
Wei Jin also stopped, holding a bomb in his hand, his eyes fixed on the hillsides on both sides.
Wei Ruo poked her head out from under the car, Wei Jin also motioned for her to wait, and Wei Ruo hid her head again.
Then Xu Zhengyong led people to rush to the slopes on both sides, and after making sure that all the people in ambush had died, he greeted everyone.
Wei Jin also pulled Wei Ruo out from under the car.
Wei Jin also took a closer look at Wei Ruo's body and made sure that she was only stained with some dirt and was not injured.
"Second brother, aren't your feet swollen?" Wei Ruo asked Wei Jinyi.
"Nope."
"This bomb is quite heavy, you kick it, I feel like normal people can kick themselves and break their bones." Wei Ruo looked at Wei Jinyi's feet and said.
Wei Ruo thought that Wei Jin would also throw it with his hands, but he didn't expect him to choose to kick with his feet.
If everyone has a foot kung fu like the second brother, there is no need to specialize in projectors.
"It's fine." Wei Jin also replied.
"Don't lie to me, take off your shoes and show me in a while, if you have a broken bone, I'll give you some medicine."
"It's really fine." Wei Jin also emphasized.
In order to divert Wei Ruo's attention, Wei Jin also asked Wei Ruo: "What is this ball?" ”
"This is a bomb, and the principle is similar to that of firecrackers and fireworks that we set off during the New Year's holidays, but this one is much more powerful." Wei Ruo explained.
As he spoke, Wei Ruo picked one up and put it in his hand and said, "I specially put it on the grain cart, originally thinking that it was just in case, but I didn't expect to really use it." ”
Xiaobei, who ran back with Xiumei, happened to hear Wei Ruo say this, and hurriedly asked, "Miss, where did you get such a powerful thing?" ”
"I borrowed it from the gods." Wei Ruo replied.
"Huh?" Xiaobei's eyes widened dumbfounded.
Then he looked back at his young master stupidly.
Wei Jin didn't speak, but he already knew it in his heart.
Wei Ruo and their speech, Xu Zhengyong came down from the hillside.
"Ruo ......" Xu Zhengyong almost said something, and after a pause, he changed his words and asked Wei Ruo, "How are you?" Are there any injuries? ”
"I'm fine, what happened to the ambushers?" Wei Ruo asked.
"It's all dead."
Saying that, Xu Zhengyong handed Wei Ruo something.
"It's the weapon they just used."
Although the thing had been blown up to only half of it, Wei Ruo still recognized at a glance that it was a donkey she had designed.
"Is this thing equipped by people from other places besides the anti-Japanese army now?" Wei Ruo asked Xu Zhengyong.
Xu Zhengyong shook his head: "Only the anti-Japanese army in Taizhou Mansion is equipped." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
If so, then aren't these people who ambushed and attacked them......
Xiumei couldn't help but ask: "This is the grain and grass for the anti-Japanese army, is there still anyone in the anti-Japanese army who hopes that the grain and grass will not be supplied?" ”
Her question was answered by no one for the time being.
Xu Zhengyong said: "It wasn't necessarily someone from the anti-Japanese army who did it, maybe someone stole our donkey, or stole the design of the donkey." ”
Xu Zhengyong still hopes in his heart that this matter has nothing to do with the anti-Japanese army.
He didn't want to believe that anyone in the anti-Japanese army would choose to betray his comrades-in-arms who fought bloody battles with him, betray his country and the people of Li who they swore to protect.
After being silent for a while, Wei Ruo asked Xu Zhengyong: "How many people in the military camp know about the food I came to deliver today?" ”
