After resting for a few hours in the only intact chapel in Muonio, when Wei Ran and others woke up, Markla had already ordered a sleigh to pull back a reindeer and a car full of food from the forest outside the village.
A load of firewood.
At Conon's urging, Markla and his son carefully broke the reindeer into pieces and buried them in the snow outside the church. Then they bid farewell to the old priest and followed the other's instructions.
It wasn't until Muonio behind him was completely blocked by the coniferous forest that Markla said, "According to the old priest, Muonio was burned before the two armored vehicles we were chasing arrived, but those two
The armored vehicle did not enter Sweden, but drove northwest. If nothing else, they probably wanted to enter Norway directly."
"There are two armored vehicles?" Weiran was the first to frown. With the few weapons the four of them had, it would be difficult to deal with one. Now that there are two armored vehicles, the four of them may not be enough for each other.
Stuffed between teeth.
“It’s really two cars.”
Markla wrapped the bearskin blanket tightly around her body. "Based on the old priest's description, one of them should be a half-track armored vehicle carrying four anti-aircraft guns, and there is also a half-track ambulance. There seem to be two more people lying inside."
A wounded person."
"How many are there in total?" Conon asked.
"About nine people"
Markla counted on her fingers, "According to the old priest, there is a doctor, four wounded, and two pilots among these people. Maybe there are only two people with real combat effectiveness. Even if you add the two pilots and
There are only five doctors."
"Even if there are only five people, it is enough for them to operate a quadruple anti-aircraft gun."
Karl, who was in charge of driving, took over, "Our sleds have no armor, and our anti-tank guns are no match for their anti-aircraft guns."
The fast-moving sleigh fell silent for a moment. Although the armored vehicle they were chasing had almost lost its combat effectiveness, it could still easily crush the four of them.
"Dad, we have been chasing this rut for at least a hundred kilometers since the last time we surrounded and annihilated their retreating troops. If the other party's car is really just wounded, how about we let them go?"
Karl thought for a while and continued, "Anyway, Muonio was not burned by the wounded."
Markla did not rush to answer his son's question, but turned to look at Konon, who was sitting opposite. The latter pondered for a moment, and said stubbornly and resolutely, "At least we must destroy the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun before we can go back!"
Markla waved her hand tiredly, "Let them run faster."
Karl glanced at Konon behind him, and in the end, without saying anything, he shook the reins vigorously and shouted at the reindeer to speed up.
In the snowy coniferous forest, although the heavy snow that stopped not long ago covered most of the traces, you can still vaguely see the ruts left by the half-track armored vehicles. Moreover, the path in this forest is only
There are only a few of them, and it's not easy to lose them even if you want to.
However, when the reindeer chattered until the sky got brighter and the aurora above their heads completely disappeared, after the sleigh turned a corner, an armored vehicle suddenly appeared directly in front!
Karl, who was in charge of driving, reacted very quickly and pulled the reins hard, controlling the sled to stop in a circle in an almost drifting manner. Before that, Conon, who was in charge of the vigilance, also slapped Wei Ran and Markla awake.
"Quad anti-aircraft guns," Carl said in a low voice while comforting the two reindeer. "There seems to be a fire near the front of the car. They are probably in the car."
Markla and Weiran each raised their telescopes, and then they saw a half-track armored vehicle diagonally cutting through the forest path and stopping in the middle of the road. The other side blocked by the front of the vehicle was indeed still steaming with flames.
But they didn't see anyone's shadow.
"Karl, turn around"
After Markla finished speaking, he opened the anti-tank gun covered with a rabbit fur blanket, and Karl also led the two reindeer to move slowly, aiming the tail of the sleigh at the half-track in the distance.
"Turning around a little, okay, here it is."
When Markla, who was lying on the sled taking aim, signaled, Karl immediately took out two wooden drills from the sled that were as thick as a wrist and about one meter long, passed them through the iron rings on both sides of the sled and stabbed them hard.
Into the thick snow.
"Armor-piercing bullets," Markla continued to whisper, while vigorously shaking the crank on the right side of the anti-tank gun to open the bolt.
With a soft "click" sound, the ejection window cover automatically popped open. Markla immediately shook the crank on the right side of the anti-tank gun in reverse while taking a huge magazine handed over by Karl.
The moment the magazine was loaded into the chamber, the thick, retracted barrel jumped forward slightly to complete the loading action.
However, Markla did not shoot directly, but gave up the position to his son Karl, "I will go to the armored vehicle to take a look first, you guys wait here."
"I'll go with you," Wei Ran said proactively.
"Let Mark and I go," Conon said while pulling out the pistol on his waist.
"Let Conon follow me. His pistol has an advantage over your rifle at close range."
As he spoke, Markla loaded the submachine gun with bullets. She and Konon, who was holding the pistol, covered each other and cautiously walked toward the half-track armored vehicle blocking the road more than a hundred meters away.
Under the gaze of the telescope held by Wei Ran, the two men were getting closer and closer to the half-track armored vehicle. After they walked around the vehicle, Markla directly put the submachine gun behind him and pointed at it.
He waved to them. Conon, who was beside him, also put away his pistol, picked up his camera and walked around to the other side of the armored vehicle.
"Let's go over there!" Weiyan said, putting away the telescope.
Upon hearing this, Karl immediately skillfully removed the magazine of the anti-tank gun and ejected the bullets from the chamber. After Wei Yan pulled out the wood drills on both sides of the rear of the sleigh, he immediately shouted to the reindeer and ran over.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, when the distance between the two sides was only twenty or thirty meters, there was a sudden sound from the other side of the half-track armored vehicle.
Explosion! Then they heard Konon's screams!
"It's broken!" Wei Ran's heart sank. When Karl told the reindeer to stop, he immediately jumped out of the sleigh and rushed over!
When he walked around the half-track armored vehicle carrying a quadruple anti-aircraft gun, he saw at a glance that Markla, who had run over a step ahead, had already hugged Konon, whose face was covered in blood!
"What's going on?" Wei Ran asked nervously.
Markla pointed to the opened right armored door of the half-track armored vehicle. In addition to a large amount of blood remaining in the cab, there was also thick smoke. The right tire under the door was still on fire.
, but on the inside of this tire, just below the front of the car, a big hole had been blown out of the thick snow, and the lubricating oil leaked from the blown engine had dyed it black.
Turning around to look at Konon, who was lying in Markla's arms, Weiran had guessed that the half-track armored vehicle had probably hit a mine. After the mine blew up the engine and axle, the vehicle could only
It was abandoned, and the German soldiers who abandoned it by the way installed a booby trap in the cab. It is obvious that Konon was the unlucky guy who was caught after letting down his vigilance.
After coming back to his senses, Wei Ran quickly helped Konon check his injuries. At this time, his face was covered with a large number of small wounds. The most serious wound was undoubtedly his right eye, which was bleeding profusely.
Seeing this, Wei Ran frowned. If only his limbs were shot or even if he was shot in the chest and abdomen, he would be sure to cure him, but the injury to his eyes was an area that he had not yet had time to learn at the Hongqi Forest Farm! However, unfortunately,
Fortunately, maybe it was because of the resistance of the armored car door, but at least Konon still had the strength to scream in pain for the time being. It was obvious that he would not die for a while.
"Do we have a first aid kit?" Wei Ran turned to Carl who was running over and asked.
"Yes! I'll get it!" Karl heard this and ran back to the sleigh, and soon retrieved a small bag that was not too big.
"Press him!"
While Wei Ran was talking, he took out a pair of tweezers from the first aid bag and roughly cleaned off the copper fragments embedded in the small wounds on Konon's face. But he didn't dare to do anything to his injured eye.
It can be temporarily wrapped with dressing and gauze.
"Markla, we must find a doctor who can treat eye injuries as soon as possible!"
Facing Weiran's request, Markla frowned, "The nearest hospital from here is at least 70 or 80 kilometers away. He may not be able to hold on for so long."
"Dad, those Germans," Karl said without thinking, "didn't the old priest say there was a doctor among them?"
"Looking for them?" Markla hesitated.
"No, we can't find them." Conon tremblingly rejected Karl's proposal.
But the latter didn't stop at all. He helped Wei Ran carry him into the sled and said, "Remember? Last winter I accidentally stepped on the animal trap and they helped me heal it. I believe they must still be there."
Willing to help us."
"It's better than watching Kanon die of pain, isn't it?" Karl pointed at Kanon who had fainted, "Or do you think he can hold on until we rush back to the hospital?"
Markla glanced at her son, then at Wei Ran, who looked calm, and finally gritted his teeth and sat at the front of the sleigh, shook the reins vigorously, and shouted loudly as the two reindeer started running, "Sit down."
alright!"
Amid Markla's shouts, two reindeer pulled the sleigh into the coniferous forest on the edge of the trail, followed the track marks not far away, and accelerated to catch up.
In the sleigh, Wei Ran used the wolfskin blanket wrapped around him to cover himself, carefully took out the medical kit in the metal book, took out a few morphine tubes and put them in his pocket, and then immediately put them back into the book.
.
While Karl, who was sitting in front of him, wasn't paying attention, Wei Ran injected one of the morphines into Konon's body to help him relieve the excruciating pain caused by his eye injury.
