When two dull explosions came from the depths of the jungle, heavy rain began to fall without any warning. At the same time, Wei Ran swam across a stream that was about to swell as fast as possible.
The heavy rain that was enough to obscure his vision came suddenly, but it was also a good thing for him. At least it was enough to wash away the traces he left along the way, and after the stream swelled, it was enough to block the small chance of catching up here for a while.
of pursuers.
Accordingly, he wanted to continue on his way, but it was no longer possible. Even if he was in a hurry, finding a place to take shelter from the rain as soon as possible at this time was undoubtedly the most correct choice, not to mention...
Neil and the indigenous soldier Kaikai were obviously dead. Even if he rushed over in a hurry, it would not help at all. If he stayed here for a while, he might be able to buy some time for Hugo and Valoro.
Deliberately walking to a higher ground, Wei Ran found two trees next to a huge boulder. He hid under the tree and took out the sailor bag in the metal book. He took out the canopy made of umbrella cloth and tied it up.
On two trees, the other side was tightened, and a sharpened wooden stick was passed through the wire loop and nailed to the ground.
Finally, he took out the hammock and tied it together. Wei Ran immediately took off his clothes, first used a lit mosquito coil to burn off more than twenty fat locusts all over his body, and then inflicted wounds on his head and legs.
After changing the medicine and using a condom to make it waterproof again, I twisted the clothes and hung them on a tree branch to dry, and fixed the direction of lighting the whole plate in the cover of the white copper mosquito coil tube, and placed it
Right below the hammock.
He took out the telescope that belonged to Captain Evans and stared at the swollen river in the distance with vigilance. Only when the rapid water flow was enough to stop all the pursuers did he relax completely and recapture the boulder again.
Under the canopy on one side.
Lying on the dry hammock with his bare buttocks and holding the shotgun, Wei Ran did not forget to take out a blanket from the sailor bag that was used as a pillow to cover his stomach to avoid catching a cold. Only then was he in the mood to play with the camera he had just obtained, while secretly thinking about it.
He asked whether the timed booby trap he had just set up with human heads had hit the Japs, and if so, how many Japs had been killed.
At any rate, the mission of killing the 20 Japs should be completed... I still have to take 10 photos...
Wei Ran put away the camera and muttered something, and pulled the blanket to cover his body, but he didn't dare to close his eyes at all.
I rested in the hammock for three hours, and the rainstorm stopped at a certain moment without any warning.
After putting away the canopy and hammock, and extinguishing the mosquito repellent incense that was quite effective, Wei Ran put on clothes and shoes that could still squeeze out water, carried a Japanese backpack containing grenades and other items, and carried a shotgun carefully.
Walking towards the direction where Neil was last seen.
However, he searched back and forth until it got dark, but he still couldn't see Neil's body. Not only Neil, but also the body of the indigenous soldier Kaikai was missing.
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Wei Ran carefully touched the edge of the path. Soon after he raised the telescope, Wei Ran clenched his fists.
At this time, just on the edge of the trail, the heads and limbs of Neil and Kaikai had been nailed to the trunk of a big tree with wooden wedges, and their disemboweled torsos were randomly discarded on the edge of the trail.
On a big rock.
Not only that, there were no enemies on the trail at this time. There were only muddy puddles accumulated in the intermittent ruts due to the heavy rain just now.
Instead of leaving the forest rashly, Wei Ran went against the direction of the Kokoda Trail and quietly headed towards the airport. At the same time, he was secretly worried about where to find Hugo and Valoro.
After walking like this for two hours, the sky turned completely dark, and what was even worse was that it started to rain heavily overhead again.
Wei Ran had no choice but to brave the rain and use the dim light emitted by the ugly and ingenious square box flashlight that was seized together with the camera. He walked deep into the jungle for a distance of about five or six hundred meters and managed to find it.
A canopy and hammock were set up again to provide shelter from the wind and rain.
I reluctantly found a few pieces of dead wood and chipped off the rain-wet outer surface, and then chopped the dry parts inside into thin strips. I pulled out a ball of cotton soaked in kerosene from the lighter, which was very laborious.
lit a bonfire.
Carefully caring for the bonfire, which was smoking thick white smoke, and burning it up a little, Wei Ran, who had not eaten much all day, took out the satchel in the metal book, dug out the American lunch box, poured it into his socks
I washed the rice carefully, filled it with water and placed it beside the campfire.
The use of socks to hold rice is indeed a special feature of the Japanese soldiers in World War II. According to Japanese standards, one sock filled with rice is almost five days of rations.
Of course, even a Japs like an animal would not easily use worn socks to hold rice, so they would not be dirty if they were dirty, not to mention that he had specially checked the rice socks when he was searching for supplies.
In the backpack he seized at this time, there were two pairs of socks filled with rice, totaling four. According to the Japanese standards, this was enough for half a month's rations.
He lit the mosquito incense again and burned the locusts everywhere on his body. Then he took off all his soaked clothes and placed them beside the campfire. Wei Yan took out the British Army P44 kettle filled with beer before entering this period of history.
As expected, there wasn't even a beer smell left in the kettle. Fortunately, Wei Ran didn't care. After taking off the outer canvas cover, he took out the set cup, filled it with rainwater, and placed it on the
Beside the campfire.
It wasn't until the British P44 kettle that he took out of the metal book and the British enamel kettle that was already empty at his waist were filled with boiling water, and an extra cup of water was boiled, that Wei Ran took out a can
He opened a gap in the canned Japanese food, placed it on the lid of the lunch box and heated it slowly.
After waiting patiently for a moment, when the steam coming out of the lunch box took on the rich aroma of rice, Wei Ran immediately took it to the moss-covered stone on one side, opened the lid, and took the heated rice.
Open the can and pour it all on top of the rice.
While he was drying himself by the campfire, Wei Ran also finished the filling rice bowl one by one.
After cleaning the lunch box, he stuffed it back into his satchel and took back the metal book. He folded the dried clothes and put them into a waterproof canvas sailor bag, and then re-bandaged the wound. Then he raised the shotgun at hand to push up the canopy above his head.
The rainwater accumulated above poured down, extinguishing the bonfire that had been painstakingly lit with a "chi" sound.
In the blink of an eye, it was early the next morning. The heavy rain that had raged in the middle of the night had long since stopped. Wei Ran also packed up all his things before the sky became completely bright. He carried his backpack and shotgun and returned to the edge of the trail to continue heading north.
Moving forward, trying to find any traces left by Hugo and Valoro.
After walking and stopping, the sun above his head soon reached its highest point. Wei Ran, who was originally planning to stop and rest, heard the faint sound of grenade explosions and Sten submachine guns in the distance.
The unique sound when strafing.
After being stunned for a moment, Wei Ran immediately quickened his pace and rushed over.
Soon, the sound of the firefight got closer and closer, and he finally saw a small Japanese team with their backs to him, each relying on trees and rocks for cover, facing off in the direction of a creek in the distance.
In addition to a machine gun team responsible for suppression, this team was also reinforced by a two-man grenade team.
At this time, the man in charge of firing the grenade in this group was holding his weapon horizontally against the trunk of a tree and aiming the muzzle at the other side of the creek.
After the other Japs stuffed the grenade into the grenade, the Japs immediately pulled the firing lever and accurately fired the grenade towards the opposite side in a flat shot.
Is it possible to play like this?
While Wei Ran was muttering secretly, four of the eight Japs with rifles began to suppress them one by one, while the other four, together with the machine gun team of the same four, were led by the leader of one team.
Then the outflanking began.
Seeing that the only ones responsible for attracting firepower and attention at this time were the two-person grenade team and the four rifles using 38-cap guns. Wei Ranjing, who was hiding behind the tank, waited for a while and then raised his weapon.
He picked up the shotgun in his hand.
Almost at the same time that the two-person grenade team fired a shell, Wei Ran also took advantage of two of the four suppressing Japanese soldiers to press bullets into their rifles, aiming at the other two and firing.
Pulled the trigger!
"Bang bang!"
Two gunshots were fired in succession, and the hearts of these two Japanese soldiers suddenly turned red as big as a bowl.
"Bang bang!"
Two more gunshots rang out, and the two Japs who had already loaded their bullets were immediately hit in the face by shotgun blasts at close range.
After a while, the Japs who had already taken out a grenade and were about to put it into the grenade dropped the grenade in panic and hurriedly tried to pull out the pistol from the hard cowhide holster on his waist.
"boom!"
Wei Ran even waited for half a second, until the Japs unbuckled the holster, and until the Japs in charge of firing dropped the grenade in their hands and prepared to hide behind the tree, then he pulled the trigger!
"boom!"
After the second gunshot, Wei Ran, who had also completed the flanking attack, appeared with a slender Mauser bayonet in his hand. With a few cuts, he cut off the grenade carrying bags on the two Japanese soldiers, and then pulled off two more grenades.
He pulled out the safety pin and placed one on the tree trunk, and threw them one after another in the direction of the Japs who had just left to outflank them.
Before the two grenades exploded, Wei Ran had already picked up the carrying bag containing the grenades in one hand and his shotgun in the other, turned around and ran diagonally towards the downstream of the distant stream!
Almost before and after, Hugo, who had been suppressed just now and couldn't even raise his head on the other side of the stream, also had his eyes lit up. He waited for a moment and saw that the suppression disappeared, and there was a unique sound of a shotgun from the downstream direction. He immediately called to Vallo.
Luo supported him and limped towards the downstream direction!
