"Mr. Shicun, look, there are wheel marks here." A short man with shifty eyes pushed aside a patch of grass and shouted at Shicun.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Are you trying to tip off the person in hiding?" Shicun cursed as he walked over. He lowered his head and saw wheel marks and a lot of footprints. It seemed that the person had definitely entered the mountain.
"Chase him..." Shicun didn't want to let go of the fat sheep in front of him, so he immediately took his men to chase after it.
At this time, Lin Jue had led his men to climb halfway up the mountain. Seeing the people below sweating in the cold winter, he did not dare to stop to rest because he knew that those people would catch up with him. What he had to do now was to find a suitable place to defend as soon as possible to fight the enemy.
"Captain, why don't you go first? I'll go behind to see if anyone catches up." Du Qiao stopped and gave Lin Jue his suggestion. If no one caught up with them, then they would have climbed the mountain in vain and would have to return to the foot of the mountain in the end.
"Okay, be careful and don't go head-on with them alone! I'll leave a mark for you, and you can just follow the mark to find us." Lin Jue did not refuse, because he thought so too, but he couldn't think of a suitable candidate for the time being. Since Du Qiao proposed it himself, he agreed because he knew that Du Qiao was the most capable among these people and should be able to deal with some emergencies intelligently.
"Got it, Captain. I will ensure that the mission is completed." Du Qiao saluted Lin Jue and walked back quickly.
Du Liang in the crowd saw this and wanted to follow several times, but in the end he just looked at them helplessly and then pushed the cart forward.
At this most critical moment, he must not hold everyone back.
So Du Qiao went down the mountain alone to check the situation, while Lin Jue led the rest of the people and continued up the mountain!
Du Qiao walked down the mountain step by step. Suddenly, he heard a gibberish conversation in a language he could not understand. He knew that he had met some Japanese people, so he immediately started running back.
Maybe the noise was too loud, and the people not far below heard it, "Ishimura-kun, look, there's someone over there."
"What are you still standing there for? Go chase him quickly!" Ishii-kun looked like he had seen his prey, with unstoppable excitement in his eyes. As long as he could complete the task perfectly this time, he would not only be able to avenge himself, but also gain the appreciation of his superiors. It would be like killing two birds with one stone!
The people brought by Shicun started chasing them without saying a word. Du Qiao looked back and was shocked to see the Japanese chasing them. He knew that he had alerted the enemy. In order not to lead the Japanese to Lin Jue and the others, he immediately made an important decision, which was to lead these people in another direction.
So Du Qiao gritted his teeth and started running in the opposite direction of Lin Jue and the others. After running for a while, he stopped to see if the people behind him were catching up. He felt relieved when he saw that those Japanese people were still chasing him.
Du Qiao led Shi Cun and his group of eighty people around in circles in the mountains. However, because Du Qiao himself was not familiar with the mountains here, he was almost surrounded by Shi Cun and his men several times. Fortunately, he managed to avoid danger every time, which made Shi Cun so angry that he scolded him.
"I didn't expect this brat could run so fast. He has already run halfway up the mountain! We haven't caught him yet. It seems to me that he is deliberately playing tricks on us!" Shicun leaned against a big tree, panting heavily, and looked hatefully at the direction where Du Qiao fled.
Wait? What did he just say? He wasn't really kidding me! Could this be the Chinese military strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain?
At this moment, Shicun suddenly became smart. He realized that Du Qiao was trying to divert them and he almost got away with it. He immediately wanted to go back.
"Everyone come back with me, stop chasing." Although Shicun really wanted to catch the person who tricked him and cut him into pieces, he had a more important task to complete, so he had to give up the plan of continuing to chase.
So under the leadership of Shicun, a group of people rushed back.
Du Qiao ran another kilometer in one breath, but when he turned around, he was shocked to see that no one was chasing him. It seemed that those islanders had seen through his plan. Now he could only pray that those people would not find the path that Lin Jue and the others had taken.
Seeing that no one was chasing him, Lin Jue did not return the same way he came. Instead, he went around from the other side in the direction that Lin Jue and the others were going up the mountain, hoping that he could find the captain and the others before those islanders!
Thinking of this, Du Qiao ignored his physical fatigue and continued running through the mountains, not daring to rest for a moment, just to find Lin Jue and the others as soon as possible.
Seeing that Du Qiao had not returned for a long time, Lin Jue stopped going up and found a relatively flat place to rest and wait. Little did he know that the Japanese people were getting closer and closer to them!
"Captain, how about I go down the mountain to look for Du Qiao?" Du Liang, who was extremely anxious, spoke again and asked to go down the mountain to look for someone.
"Wait a little longer." Lin Jue looked at the way down the mountain silently, never giving up.
It's not that he didn't want Du Liang to go down the mountain to look for it, but there weren't many of them. If they all went down the mountain one by one, there wouldn't be enough manpower here, not to mention whether they would encounter an attack. For the sake of this mission, he could only cruelly reject his request.
"But..." Du Liang wanted to fight for it again. That was his cousin! He couldn't just watch and do nothing. Maybe he was in danger!
"You don't even listen to my orders?" Seeing that Du Liang was not giving up, Lin Jue had no choice but to bring up his status as the head of the regiment. Although he never liked to use his status to pressure others, he had to do so under the current circumstances.
"Got it, Captain." Du Liang replied angrily, then sat aside with a dark face to rest. Wang Song and Shi Liang immediately surrounded him when they saw him.
"Don't worry! Du Qiao's ability is obvious to everyone in the team. Don't you still believe in his strength? You should worry about yourself! You have offended the team leader, and you will suffer in the end."
"Yeah, he's right." Shi Liang agreed with Wang Song's words. This was also what he wanted to say.
Although their meeting was not very harmonious at the beginning, after spending some time together, they became not only comrades-in-arms, but also friends.
"Okay!" Du Liang still looked unhappy.
As time passed, Lin Jue became anxious, and kept praying in his heart that nothing would happen, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Suddenly, there were faint footsteps coming from the right. Lin Jue vigilantly took out his gun and whispered, "Be alert!"
"Hey! It's me, it's me, don't shoot." Du Qiao bent down and pushed away the weeds, then walked out.
"How did you get here? And you made yourself so miserable!" Lin Jue saw that Du Qiao's body was covered with grass fragments and his face was cut with several cuts. He looked very miserable.
"There's no time to explain. Hurry up, those people are about to catch up with us." Du Qiao didn't even have time to drink a sip of water, and told them to leave quickly in a hoarse voice.
"Let's go..." Lin Jue didn't ask any more questions. He realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately asked people to leave.
"Bang bang bang..." Lin Jue and his companions had just taken two steps when they heard bursts of gunfire. They knew without turning around that those people were catching up with them.
"You guys push the cart and leave quickly. The rest of you stay with me to block the way and buy time for others to leave safely."
"Yes, Captain."
In this way, Lin Jue stayed with ten people, and the remaining ten people pushed the cart and continued to move forward.
As the sound of "bang bang" continued, Lin Jue knew that those people were getting closer, and immediately started fighting with the Japanese people with others.
But the other side had more people and more power, their numbers were several times greater than theirs. Although they knocked down several Japanese people, they were still forced to retreat by Shicun and his men. Seeing this, Lin Jue and his men had no choice but to fight while retreating.
"Captain, this is not a solution! They are fighting so closely, we can't pull away from them!" Du Qiao spoke loudly while fighting.
"Hold on for now, it would be good to buy more time." Lin Jue knew this truth. Besides, they had almost used up all their bullets and had no supplies. They couldn't hold on for long. But now they could only take one step at a time!
Suddenly Lin Jue stopped moving because he had run out of bullets. The gun in his hand was no different from a toy gun, and the guns of others also ran out of bullets after firing a few times.
"Retreat quickly..." Lin Jue had never thought of using his comrades' lives to delay time, so he immediately started to let everyone evacuate.
Shicun, who was fifty meters away, saw that Lin Jue and his men had not fired any more shots, so he knew that they had run out of bullets. He immediately became excited, "Everyone, hurry up and chase them. They have run out of bullets. Don't be afraid of them, just chase them."
So Shicun and his men chased after them, firing a few shots from time to time, as if they were playing a game of cat and mouse. Several times when they were about to catch up, Shijing deliberately asked his men to stop. After Lin Jue and the others ran away for a distance, he asked his men to chase after them again, as if he was enjoying this kind of fun.
"Captain, commander, here!" Lin Jue and his companions were running when they suddenly heard a familiar voice.
It turned out that Shi Liang was waving at them, "Why are you here? Where are the others?" Lin Jue didn't dare to ask if the others had been killed.
"They are all fine, waiting for us downstairs!" Wang Song pointed to the ground.
"Are you saying they are all dead?" Lin Jue's voice trembled. He couldn't believe this was true. They had not been apart for long, how could they be separated by the Yin and Yang?
"Pooh, pooh, pooh... What are you talking about, Captain! What life or death? This is a huge misunderstanding." Wang Song was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He also realized that it seemed that he had said something wrong that caused Lin Jue to misunderstand.
