Chapter 213: The Long Overdue Alliance
After discussion, the captain of the seventh and eighth squads decided to report to the commander for reinforcements.
But I have to reply: no reinforcements for the time being!
In order to reinforce the armed army, it will need to send in more soldiers.
At this time, it was almost noon, and it would take time to transfer manpower from outside, not to mention, the transferred manpower would meet the Allied forces that had come to support, and in this case, the armed army had no power but to choose to retreat.
But the reply also said that whatever they did here, the armed army would smooth it out.
The captain of the seventh squad looked pensive, figuring out the meaning of the commander's "smoothing".
The Captain of the Eighth Team grinned, "He's dripping into the sea, just those of us can't find him in these few hours!" ”
"But we can find a team of survivors here and threaten him with these survivors..."
The proposal of the eighth squad leader was directly interrupted by the seventh squad leader, "He will never show up with a soft heart, he just needs to hide quietly in a dark corner, and wait for the arrival of the alliance forces, and then he can get out of here smoothly." ”
Maybe they will laugh at their whimsy, stupidity and naivety.
He is the superior, and the leader cherishes himself the most, and will not fight for... Sacrifice yourself.
Moreover, their actions have also shown limitations.
Including his appearance in the Inner Asia region, it is all a secret thing, and this kind of thing cannot be generously announced to the public.
Then they will not be able to coerce him into showing up to take responsibility for the survivors and tarnish his reputation.
The eighth squad leader put away his smile and glanced at the seventh squad leader coldly, "We have no better way to find him!" ”
The informant did not know which way his heart fell, let alone whether he was alive or dead.
Without the guidance of an informant, they are like headless flies scurrying around, only stepping into the trap of "he" ambush for no reason.
If nothing happened to the other six soldiers, they might have joined forces and reluctantly formed a search blockade, searching for him block by block.
It's a pity that they trust the informant who doesn't know life and death, and they trust their own force too much, so they will enter the trap deliberately set by others and be broken one by one.
The Captain of the Seven Squad closed his mouth, they really didn't have an effective way to deal with him.
He only said, "It's up to you to decide how you act." ”
The Eighth Squad Leader sneered, as if he was stubbornly resisting for the Seventh Squad Leader's psychological shortcomings, and as if laughing at his hypocrisy.
But he still quickly took over the rights given to him by the captain of the seventh team, "All of them, follow me!" Find the survivors in the Inner Asia region! ”
He rallied two squads and turned in the direction in which he had previously found the trail of the survivors.
Zhou Tang and the three of them also took the first step, and they found the priest's team.
But Iha chose to avoid them at the door, and in his words, they didn't see me, which was also a different way to protect them.
The armed army is good at torturing people, and the untrained ordinary, whether they want it or not, will soon be revealed to themselves.
It is said to protect ordinary people, but also to protect himself.
Zhou Tang glanced at him with a smile, this high-sounding reason, who believes who is a little fool!
If Aha wants to protect the people, as he says, why not sacrifice the ego to protect the ego at the first moment?
Besides, there is another sentence, belated affection is cheaper than grass! At this time, he thought about the people, and his previous ruthlessness was even more revealed.
Zhou Tang nodded, "Then you find a place to hide first, and we will go and negotiate with the priest, and he will come forward to appease the survivors and let them disperse and hide." ”
Aiha nodded, but added another sentence when Zhou Tang turned around, "You don't need to tell the priest about me." ”
Zhou Tang casually obeyed, "As you wish." ”
The two of them also removed their chest guns, keeping only their close-fitting pistols and grenades before striding away.
The priest watched Zhou Tang and the two disappear around the corner of the street, he only stood still for a moment, and then hid in the house next to him.
Zhou Tang and the two quickly approached the team, and the people in the team saw the two of them again without any ups and downs, they were just dispensable people on the surface, they did not have the spirit of leadership, and they were not the spiritual pillars in everyone's hearts.
Leaving or showing up is common, and the survivors are more concerned about whether they will survive? If you can't survive, everyone will be reduced to a piece of loess in a few days.
The two soon came to the leading priest.
The priest turned his head to look at the person with tired eyes, but his eyes lit up the moment he saw Zhou Tang.
"You guys!?"
Zhou Tang stretched out his index finger to his lips, and after the priest calmed down a little, she said softly and quickly, "Find a place for everyone to rest, we have something to discuss with you." ”
The priest couldn't hold back, "Did you find him?" I..."
Zhou Tang looked left and right and shook his head slightly.
The priest gave her a look, immediately turned to the nun's side and whispered a few times, and then said aloud, "Let's rest here before we go on our way." ”
The team had actually rested an hour before, and according to the original plan, and the practice of the previous two days, it should have been a break every two to three hours.
Only now, although the interval is too short, no one raises any objections.
The priest asked the nun to inspect everyone's state, and he turned around and came to Zhou Tang and the others.
Zhou Tang said softly, "We have found 'him'." He called himself Aha! ”
The priest's face was slightly strange.
Zhou Tang was puzzled, "Isn't his name called?" He deceived us? ”
The priest rubbed his cheeks, "No! Aha was the name of his youth! It's been so many years... I just didn't expect him to tell you the name. ”
Zhou Tang copied and pasted the priest's previous strange expression, as if asking why the priest knew "him" so well.
The priest was speechless and turned his face away as if he were evading.
It's just that there is no time to waste on such trivial things now.
Zhou Tang ignored the priest's subtle emotions and got straight to the point, "The armed army has sent a team into here to find him since last night. ”
"We used our strengths to frustrate them, but they won't pass up this great opportunity to kill Ahha."
"I think they can't find Aha, and in a hurry, they'll find us!"
The priest failed to understand what Zhou Tang meant by "we".
She explained empathetically, "The armed forces wanted to use the survivors to coerce him into showing up. ”
The priest blurted out directly, "How is that possible?" How did he show up? ”
Zhou Tang nodded in agreement, "Yes!" He won't show up, not because—" she looked up at the people around her who were slumped on the floor, resting against the corner, "None of us deserve his life, including you. Right? ”
The priest shut his mouth suddenly, because he clearly understood that Zhou Tang had not said a wrong word.
He is such a cold-hearted and cold-blooded person, since he has been constantly climbing up and sitting in a high position, the whole person is not the same as before.
He was a little flustered, a little unbearable, and asked himself, "Then what should we do?" Waiting to die? Is everyone here going to die for him? ”
Zhou Tang stretched out his hand and landed on his shoulder.
The priest's shoulders were thin, and his bones were sticking out...
In the past ten days, not only materially, but also spiritually, I have been under tremendous pressure, and I have been beside the two of them before.
"Nope! We can't sit still! That's why we're back here. We need you to disband the party temporarily. Wait until the Confederates arrive in the evening, and then come out to assemble. ”
The priest raised his head in confusion, as if to confirm what Zhou Tang said.
Zhou Tang nodded, "Let everyone disperse and hide!" So that the armed army cannot find our trace! ”
"There are only two squads left in the armed army, a total of fourteen people! It may seem like these fourteen people can do a lot, but in fact there is only so much they can do! ”
"Because we had set up an ambush for them, they didn't dare to disperse their movements, and they couldn't search quickly if they were united. We just need to hide! Avoid them. ”
The priest seemed to be ignorant and asked, "Where can we hide?" ”
Zhou Tang said, "This should be asked to you!" Or you can ask them! ”
One person counts short, two people count long, not to mention that there are twenty or thirty people here!
There is always someone who can come up with a reasonable hiding place.
"It's too late! We're going to hurry! ”
Without further delay, the priest got up and walked among the crowd and offered to advance this method of hiding.
Someone suggested the space under the collapsed church, others said that the collapsed field hospital constituted the space, and some people remembered the cellars that some people had dug out in their homes...
The priest immediately arranged, and the physical and uninjured people returned to the church and the field hospital to hide, or hid in a cellar a little farther away.
The wounded took refuge in the nearest house with cellars and storage rooms.
Only when he turned around again, he saw Zhou Tang and Cheng Mu missing.
The priest was inexplicably stunned, but the busy moment continued, and everyone was still waiting for him.
Zhou Tang and the two found Aiha.
Aha leaned around the corner with his gun in his hands.
Zhou Tang said inexplicably, "He has always been excellent!" ”
Aiha raised his head instantly, and looked at Zhou Tang with a wrong look.
Zhou Tang didn't have any evasion, "It's not worse than you!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Aiha's serious expression suddenly relaxed, and he could see that there was a smile on the corner of his eyebrows.
"Yes, he's growing faster than I thought!"
"It's also fun for you to be directly with him, one is dodging at the door, and the other ...."
Cheng Mu suddenly interrupted their specious words to test each other.
"The armed army is coming!"
Zhou Tang immediately changed the topic and said, "There are many injured people in the survivor team, and they can't go fast, so let's buy them more time." ”
Buying time is something like that, and Iha is still willing to do it.
He stood up and handed the gun back to Zhou Tang and the others, "Let's go!" Create some minor trouble for them. ”
Aha was the first to leave the house, followed by Zhou Tang and the others.
The Captain of the Seventh Squad was silent throughout the whole process, like a soldier who perfectly obeyed orders.
The leader of the eighth squad sent out the best scouting soldiers in the team.
"Report to the captain, it was at this fork in the road that we discovered the existence of survivors, and we can catch them by going all the way to the southwest."
The leader of the eighth squad looked around sharply, but found no abnormality, "Let's go." ”
It's just that as soon as they walked into the street, suddenly several explosions rang out one after another, and the already crumbling and loose walls of houses on both sides of the street collapsed directly towards them......
It feels bad, there's a feeling of being buried.
The captain of the eighth squad could only say sternly, "Retreat!" Step back! We've been ambushed! ”
Just a little, they walked in the middle of the street, and the houses on both sides had collapsed, and some had just smashed and broken bricks, which left them room and time to breathe.
The captain of the eighth squad was one of the less lucky, because he was the leader, he was hit by broken bricks and stones, lying on the ground, and before he could be protected, he was crushed by a large boulder and his leg was crushed, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull out his leg.
Several more soldiers were wounded, and two were completely buried under the rubble.
After the explosion stopped, the Captain of the Seventh Squad stepped forward and instructed the intact soldiers to remove the stone that was pressed against the thigh of the Captain of the Eight.
There are also people on guard around...
"Damn it!" The captain of the eighth squad gritted his teeth and couldn't hold back his painful exhalation.
The tyrannical aura in his eyes was boiling over.
The soldiers were not slow, and quickly dug out the eighth squad leader, who had no wounds from thigh to calf, but was severely bruised...
The Seventh Squad Leader was slightly relieved after a closer inspection, and immediately arranged for the soldiers to dig up the people buried under the stones.
The leader of the eighth squad sat on the rocks, watched the soldier deal with his injured leg, and put forward a very bold idea, "You don't have to worry about us, he must be around here!" Hurry up and take someone to chase it! ”
The Captain of the Seventh Team had a different idea, "He's in the dark, we're in the light!" "These houses will be his weapons against them!
Now they don't have any advantage! Forcibly catching up will only divide their ranks! Fall into the trap he has set!
They had long guessed that there were at least two more helpers by his side! And the shooting skills of the helper are not weaker than him!
The captain of the eighth squad did not relent, "Don't forget the mission of our soldiers!" Even if the road ahead is a cliff, we can only rush forward, not backward! ”
The Captain of the Seven Squads was silent, only this was a meaningless struggle!
The more they struggle, the more they fall into a desperate situation.
But...
The Captain of the Seventh Squad stood up, "If you are not injured, follow me!" ”
He led the men to turn and leave, leaving the wounded three soldiers gathered around the leader of the eighth squad.
The captain of the eighth squad said, "Keep digging!" Leave me alone! ”
He leaned against the wall, his gun gripping alertly.
Zhou Tang and the three ran away after throwing the grenade, who was stupid to stay where they were and be caught?
With years of combat experience and perception, the Captain of the Seventh Squad led people to the route where he and the people around him were most likely to retreat.
It's just that everyone is a good hand, and the good hands make moves between them, and there are few flaws.
The captain of the seventh squad led the people to chase for a while, stopped, frowned slightly, "Spread out slightly, look for traces......
Time went back minute by minute, the sun was shining so high that it was gradually setting westward, but they did not make progress!
The Captain of the Seventh Team looked up at the sky and felt that the general trend had gone!
By the time the Armed Forces sent bombers to bomb the Inner Asian region in turn, but still let him escape, the Armed Forces had already been defeated!
But there's still a chance to save face!
But when their eight teams entered here, there were only more than ten people left, which was a fiasco!
The priest and the wounded man hid in the cellar under the house, their ears pricked up nervously to distinguish any noise coming from overhead!
