Angel

It was the first time Tang Anqi found her way into the cemetery at night—it was still a messy graveyard, with graves scattered here and there, and her feet were uneven.

The first two big men, one is Sun Baoshan's second cousin Chen Liangwu, and the other is Adjutant Li.These two were very courageous, they didn't shy away from anything, they were not afraid of anything, they walked forward in the dark.The rest of the people lined up in a neat line and followed them silently—on a dark and windy night, they dared not have light around them, if they walked around freely, half of them would fall into the grave It is impossible to go into the pit.

Xiao Maozi tightly grasped one of Tang Anqi's arms, and was extremely careful along the way. Unexpectedly, Tang Anqi's body suddenly tilted, and then there was a "boom" under her feet. The sound was very clear in the quiet night, as if it could spread far and wide.

Before Tang Anqi lowered her head to see clearly, Xiao Maozi pulled him up with force and brought him forward.Tang Anqi knew that she was stepping on the coffin plank, her heart was trembling, and she didn't dare to turn her head.When everyone in the rear saw it, they automatically avoided it, and at the same time quickened their pace.

Platoon leader Zhang stood behind with a pistol in his hand, and stepped on something soft with his feet. He didn't say a word, knowing that it was a corpse.Chinese people are executed every day on the checkpoint. If the corpses are not thrown here, where should they be thrown?

Lights flickered in the air ahead, and Chen Liangwu held his breath, knowing that he was getting closer to the village.

Of course they did not dare to enter the village openly, all they could do was to pass through the cemetery between the two villages.The newly built gun towers of the Japanese army stood on the edge of the two villages, and the beams of the searchlights flashed occasionally, which could illuminate far away.

Chen Liangwu is not afraid of searchlights, he is afraid of dogs.Although the wolf dogs of the Japanese army can't run wild, once the Japanese patrol team catches up, they can hide from the eyes of the Japanese army, but they can't hide from the nose of the wolf dogs.

In the late autumn night, the ground will be covered with frost.These twenty or so people were wearing tattered single clothes, sweating as they walked together.Chen Liangwu bent more and more as he walked, and suddenly stopped and lay down on the ground, his rear was affected, and he also fell down together.

After a while like this, Lieutenant Li got up first, turned around and said in a low voice, "It's okay, will-o'-the-wisp."

The team climbed up again from front to back.A bright green flame was still jumping and flickering in front of him, Chen Liangwu let out a sigh of relief: "I thought it was a fucking wolf!"

Before the words fell, a burst of fierce dog barking suddenly sounded.And the lazy searchlight beam became lively and began to sweep towards the graveyard quickly.

Chen Liangwu was a wild child since he was a child, he grew up wandering in the mountains and forests, but at this time he was more clever than others.Pulling out a sharp saber from his waist, he raised his hand and said in a low voice, "Wild dog, run!"

After saying this, he took the lead in striding forward, stooping and galloping forward. Seeing this, the people behind also hurriedly followed.Tang Anqi ran wildly with one foot deep and one foot shallow. At first she didn't understand what a wild dog was so afraid of, but after running less than ten meters, he discovered the danger around him.

It is indeed a wild dog, there is nothing wrong with it, it is not a wild dog, but a group of wild dogs with an unknown number.The wild dogs have been used to eating human flesh here recently, and they broke into the wild dog's territory!

The dog's barking seemed to be contagious, and it spread one after another, and instantly rang out on the graveyard.A black wild dog rushed forward to bite Chen Liangwu. Chen Liangwu turned around to hide, and the dog's mouth and fangs rushed directly to Lieutenant Li next to him.Lieutenant Li drew out his pistol without thinking, smashed the dog's head with one shot, and immediately splashed red and white all over the two of them.Chen Liangwu wiped the blood on his face, and became anxious on the spot: "Who the hell made you shoot? Are you looking for death?"

After Lieutenant Li pulled the trigger, he realized that he was a bad thing.The beam of the searchlight suddenly fixed on him and Chen Liangwu. He shouted loudly and started to run.

A string of flares and gunshots broke the night, and the bullets rushed into the soil in front of Adjutant Li.Lieutenant Li risked his life, did not hide, and rushed forward bravely.Everyone in the rear also dispersed and fled into the darkness together.A force grabbed Tang Anqi's calf, and he ran recklessly, only to hear a "嗤啦", a piece of trouser leg was torn away by a wild dog.

The light beam shook violently in a large area, and the sound of gunfire accompanied by barking dogs surrounded them.The sound of motorcycles came from far and near, and the platoon leader Zhang was behind. At this time, he took a few brothers to lie behind the grave, kicked the wild dogs, and aimed his gun at the same time.

He started shooting at the approaching Japanese motorcycle squad.As expected, the motorcycle team was forced to stop, and fought back against the vast darkness ahead.

The rest of the people seized the opportunity and continued to flee forward.

In the early hours of the morning, they entered a forest.

Tang Anqi counted the number of people, and found that now including herself, there were only fifteen people left.

They sat on the ground panting heavily, and it took a long time before they gradually calmed down.The group of platoon leader Zhang did not catch up, and no one asked a question about it, because everyone tacitly knew that those people must be dead.

The forest is still safe for the time being, because the Japanese army is not familiar with the terrain here, so they dare not rush into the mountains and through the forest.A small soldier, who was originally Sun Baoshan's orderly, was only in his teens, and a wild dog tore off a large piece of flesh from his leg at night, and he ran over with support.But now he obviously couldn't stand it anymore, and sat down against the big tree without saying a word, his lips were as white as paper.Xiao Maozi tore off a strip of cloth from his military uniform, and tied it tightly around the base of his thighs.

The wound must be rotten. After it rots, the poison will go up the blood, and it will be over when it reaches the heart.Xiao Maozi used the simple method of drinking poison to quench his thirst, preventing the blood from flowing in his leg.

In the afternoon, the little orderly leaned against the big tree and died.

Nobody had the strength to dig a hole to bury him.After nightfall, everyone supported each other to stand up and continue walking. Tang Anqi looked back and saw the little orderly sitting there with his head tilted, alone, as if he had fallen asleep.

He suddenly burst into tears, looking at the little orderly, he seemed to have seen his end.How much he likes to be lively, but one day in the future, he knows that he will die alone like this, alone, leaning on the big tree.Others thought he was just dozing off, but in fact he was dead.

Raising his dirty hand to wipe his eyes, he went to hold Xiaomaozi's hand.Others are physically stronger than him, he eats less and has less strength.If it wasn't for Xiao Maozi who was always pulling him, he would definitely fall behind.

That night, everyone walked smoothly, passing another village without a sound.Chen Liangwu traced the route very accurately, and at dawn, they entered the wild forest again.

They were met by a villager who was about to go into the mountains to fry foxes.As if never expecting to see the Chinese army now, the villager looked excited and gave them all the dry food on his body-eight cornbreads the size of a sea bowl-.Tang Anqi asked him about the situation at the foot of the mountain, which meant that he wanted to go south, but the villagers' description made him quickly dismiss this idea - he couldn't go out at all.

Since you can't go south, you have to go to Tianjin.Eight big cornbreads saved their lives and gave them the strength to continue to drag their legs.

On the third night, Adjutant Li died, accompanied by several brothers.

In this land, the Japanese army has been everywhere.Although they were careful enough, it seemed that every inch of the ground stretched the nerves of the Japanese soldiers. If they wanted to walk freely, it seemed that they could only become ghosts.

In order for the majority of people to escape, a small number of people must stay behind to cover them, and if people stay, their lives will also stay.

On the fifth night, they were pursued again.

This time the quartermaster was also dead.When the number of people was counted at dawn, there were only seven people left, and two of them suffered gunshot wounds.

They settled down in an abandoned shack. Chen Liangwu took out two pieces of ocean from his body and stuffed them into Tang Anqi's hands: "Traveler, get yourself a pair of trousers and jacket, and go by yourself."

Tang Anqi was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Chen Liangwu replied: "You are like a young master, and the Japanese devils can't see your identity. Wen County is in front of you. Let's go."

Tang Anqi threw two big oceans into his arms: "I'm going to leave early, why do I have to wait until now?"

Chen Liangwu looked at him, and said in a low voice, "Traveler, the few of us, I'm afraid... it's too much."

Tang Anqi waved her hand, then turned around and went to Xiao Maozi to ask for water: "It's enough to be enough, I don't care. I have lived for more than 20 years, and I have eaten and played. I enjoy more happiness than you, and I am not bad if I die."

He took two sips of cold water, turned his head and turned to Chen Liangwu: "In the future, if I die ahead of you, don't let me die in vain; if you die ahead of me, I won't let you die in vain either."

After walking for another two nights with the two wounded, they actually arrived outside Wen County.This time they had to stop—Chen Liangwu was not very familiar with this area, so he couldn't determine the night travel route.

Both wounded suffered flesh wounds and were not fatal if they could be treated in time.Tang Anqi decided to go to Wenxian County to buy medicine—by herself, without even bringing her little hair.Xiao Maozi's appearance is between soldiers and civilians, which makes people look a little suspenseful.If the Japanese soldier's eyes are sharp, he will not even have a chance to make up nonsense to save people.
