Du Man and Wang Laomao ran back at the same time. They had walked a few hundred meters straight but had just rounded a corner.
Wherever the mountain road turns, it is mostly because there are mountains blocking it.
Du Man and Wang Laomao ran to the corner and took advantage of the cover of the mountain to peek at the road. Sure enough, they saw a dozen Japanese soldiers appearing on the road.
The Japanese soldiers they saw were coming towards them with their rifles with bayonets bent and their waists bent.
"That's it, let's fuck him for a while!" said one of the soldiers who stayed on the spot.
After discovering the Japanese army, he had been hiding here. At this time, all the Japanese soldiers emerged from the cover of the mountain.
This soldier's statement is not unreasonable. There are only a dozen Japanese troops in total, but there are more than 20 of them now. They are laying an ambush and suddenly attack the Japanese troops. Even if they cannot wipe out all the Japanese troops, the other side will definitely attack them. Not good enough.
But after the soldier finished speaking, he saw that the faces of Du Man, Wang Laomao and Han Liancai had become serious, and no one paid any attention to him.
"The devil's head is like a toad's eye. At first glance, it is the spearhead of the Japs, and there is a large army of Japs behind them." Old Mao Wang said in a deep voice.
Old Mao Wang's judgment immediately made the soldier's face turn red. Only then did he realize that his thinking was too simple.
Du Man and Han Liancai are both veterans of the reconnaissance company, and Mr. Wang is over forty, so he must also be a veteran. They see things further than he does!
"Stop staying here, let's run before the devils notice!" Du Man said immediately, and then he turned around and ran away. At the same time, he also shouted in his mouth: "Run! Run!"
Just now Han Liancai went to Du Man to report the news out of breath, and others naturally noticed it. Now that Du Man said to run quickly, don't others know what's going on?
Everyone started running, but because of the two wounded soldiers, the two wounded soldiers needed to be supported by two soldiers, one on the left and one on the right. In this way, their marching speed could not be too fast after all. .
"Fuck, the little devil was behind us when we took the main road, but we didn't even see him!" Mr. Wang analyzed as he ran.
Since this is a mountainous area, the mountains and hills block the sight of both the enemy and ourselves.
In addition, neither the enemy nor ourselves made a sound, so they both walked this road without even noticing the other party.
"Let's see if there is a mountain fork or something. Let's hide for a while!" Du Man was also helpless.
You may not be able to outrun the Japanese army by running, because they are carrying wounded soldiers, and the only way is to find a concealed place to hide.
But Du Man looked forward and saw that although the mountains on both sides were not too high, the walls were so steep that even good people could not climb them, not to mention that they had brought wounded people with them.
Looking at the terrain ahead, they had to run straight for more than three hundred meters before they could hide behind the mountain without being discovered by the Japanese army.
"Hurry up before it's too late!" Du Man said as he ran.
What he meant by being in time was that the Japanese troops behind them were still some distance away from them. He estimated that there would always be about 400 meters away. The Japanese troops would not appear until they all ran to the end of the straight road and hid.
As for the terrain after turning the corner and being blocked by the mountain, he naturally didn't know what kind of terrain lay ahead, but at least they were safe on this stretch of road.
What Du Man thought was definitely not wrong, but could they really be safe for the time being?
Just when all of them were running out of breath, with white breath coming from their mouths and noses, and were about to rush to the corner, gunshots suddenly rang out.
In the sound of gunfire, Duma turned around and saw that the shot was fired by Han Liancai, and at the end of their road, at the same corner as before, the Japanese army had appeared!
When Han Liancai heard the gunshot, it might not hit the Japanese soldiers because they were too far away, but he saw all the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground with a "swish".
"Run! Run!" Han Liancai shouted.
Han Liancai didn't forget that Du Man asked him to stay behind, so he looked back while running. When he ran here, he saw the Japanese troops emerging from behind.
Then he shot instinctively, because he heard Shang Zhen and the others said that those stupid Japanese were good at shooting.
Therefore, he must not be wrong to fire a warning shot to block the Japanese army.
With the blocking of Han Liancai's shot, everyone finally rushed through the corner. The Japanese gunshots rang out almost at the same time, and the bullets hit the rocks with a "dang" and "dang" sound. .
"How did the little devils find us? How could they run so fast?" asked Mr. Wang, who had escaped.
But before Du Man could answer, Wang Lao Mao had already asked and answered his own question: "Footprints, it's crazy to see our footprints!"
Only then did Du Man remember that although the Northwest Army was not well-dressed, the shoes they were wearing were also standard.
The shoe prints of this standard are naturally different from the shoe prints of the shoes worn by ordinary people. Just as they had previously discovered that there were no Japanese soldiers in front of them, they also judged by looking at the shoe prints on the snow.
They ran from a small road to the main road. It must be the Japanese soldiers who noticed the extra shoe prints. Then they saw that they were not ordinary people. So they didn't chase them?
But at this point, it's useless to talk too much, so it's better to run for your life.
Fortunately, this mountain road is not long, and the range of sight is only more than 200 meters. Everyone continued to run panting, and the breath they exhaled had condensed into frost flowers and hung on the collars of their hats, ears, and jackets. But by this time Who can care?
It's just that they really underestimated the Japanese army's marching ability.
Just as they ran all the way to the end of the road and turned around the mountain again, Han Liancai, who was running at the back, turned around and saw the Japanese army showing up behind him again!
Although they ran a little slower because they had wounded soldiers and two of them supported them, in the same time, the Japanese army also ran nearly one-third more distance than them!
Thinking about it, just like most of the people in Duman's reconnaissance company were veterans, the top soldiers of the Japanese army must also be elite veterans.
How can this be done?
Then run forward? But then everyone saw the road ahead, which was a mile long this time.
At the current running speeds of both the enemy and ours, they only need to run more than a hundred meters before the catching up Japanese troops can see them, and then it will be time for both sides to shoot at each other.
If that was the case, they might as well just leave someone behind to stop them.
But just when Du Man and Wang Laomao had this idea, they discovered that another person was coming in front of them. A group of people had already rushed out of the mountain blocking their view and ran towards them.
The Japanese are not coming again. There are tigers and wolves blocking the way, and there are enemies chasing them behind. What should they do this time?
