"Lao Hu, wake up quickly. We are about to arrive at Tonghua City."
When Hu Biao was sleeping soundly, he suddenly felt someone pushing him hard and calling him loudly in his ear.
After opening his eyes, Hu Biao could see that in the entire stuffy tank car, all the team members had woken up and were preparing to get out of the car.
Seeing this, Hu Biao put the backpack he had put on the back of his head and used it as a pillow on his back.
Then he opened the car door a little, and after checking that no one noticed him, everyone jumped down one by one.
After landing, Hu Biao skillfully rolled on the thick snow, easily taking off all the force of his jump without suffering any damage.
What! They have had too many experiences of climbing and hopping on trains in the recent past, and they have long been able to make perfect mistakes.
After getting up, Hu Biao still felt a little confused in his head.
That is the result of long-term lack of sleep, hunger and satiety, and malnutrition.
In terms of specific performance, in addition to looking quite depressed mentally, Hu Biao has now lost a lot of weight, at least 20 pounds.
In fact, this is a common situation among the entire Zhongzhou team.
Everyone has lost weight, like Fei Falcon and other middle-aged men, who originally had somewhat of a belly, have basically disappeared under such consumption.
If you pull down the mask, you can see the unshaven faces of these gentlemen more clearly.
Fortunately, according to the situation analysis, the follow-up of this system task will not take too long, and everyone can return to the modern plane for a month to repair...
Soon after, everyone who jumped off the train gathered around, waiting for a commander like Hu Biao to decide what to do next.
At this moment, it is already around 2 o'clock in the morning on February 17th, and in less than 3 days, it will be the final deadline for the third phase of the mission.
On the surface, it seems that nearly 70 hours is enough time.
After all, according to a map that Hu Biao and the others grabbed from the Japanese, it was more than a hundred kilometers from Tonghua to Mengjiang County.
The problem is that Tonghua City is already the nearest train station to Mengjiang County where General Jingyu and his friends are active, and they can only rely on their legs for the rest of the journey.
In this kind of ice and snow, relying on the speed of running with your legs, such a speed can be said to be completely sad.
In addition, after arriving at the place, Hu Biao could only barely determine the general area where General Jingyu and others were currently operating based on the information left by later generations.
At least one or two days should be left to look for someone in the vast old forest.
Even so, whether Hu Biao and the others can finally find someone depends on their luck.
For this reason, Hu Biao rubbed his cheeks vigorously with both hands, hoping that he could be more awake, and at the same time asked everyone:
"Brothers, it seems like we are running out of time if this continues, what should we do?"
After hearing this, Yang Dongli suggested:
"Let's get some other means of transportation to get on the road. It would be best to have trucks. If not, we need to get some sledges and horses. Otherwise, if we just rely on our legs, we will probably be exhausted and not be able to catch up with the task."
Regarding Yang Dongli's suggestion, the middle-aged warehouse manager asked about his worries.
"Horses and sledges are better. Trucks and other things can only be obtained from the Japanese. But if we do this, won't our traces be exposed immediately?"
In response to this point, Feifan gave his own opinion:
"Exposed, just exposed. In the past, we were worried that after being exposed, the Japanese would intensify patrols on the railway, which would affect the speed of our arrival; now that we are almost there, we are still worried about nothing.
Maybe if we make a big fuss, we can attract some firepower from the Japanese and relieve General Jingyu and others from some pressure."
"It makes sense. Let's just do it. When the time comes, we can catch a few Japs to lead the way and save some time."
After hearing this, Hu Biao accepted this statement.
The main reason was that during these many days, in order to hide their whereabouts, they had been hiding everywhere; they were already so frustrated that they wished they could do something.
After saying this, everyone started to move forward with their heads covered with heavy snow.
It’s a strange thing to say. I don’t know how long winter has been like this in the Northeast, or whether it’s been particularly snowy in the past 40 years. Anyway, whenever they are active, there is always such a heavy snow scene...
******
After about 40 minutes, Hu Biao and the others stopped and silently looked at the place in front of them.
Originally, according to their plan, they planned to find a Japanese army camp, work for a while, and then leave.
If there had been a calculated and unintentional surprise attack, the Japanese would have had a squadron of troops stationed there, and Hu Biao and the others would still be sure to defeat them.
However, as the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes.
After walking for a long time in such a dark night, they did not find the Japanese garrison, but they found another target:
The Japs' pioneering group.
By the way! Even though the Japs' pioneering group has such a peaceful name on the surface, in essence, it cannot escape the fact that it is a paramilitary organization.
During the entire occupation of Northeast China, the Japanese dispatched more than 860 pioneering groups with a total of more than 330,000 personnel.
The purpose of this is nothing more than to increase the proportion of the Japanese population and achieve the dream of completely occupying the Northeast and possessing such a treasure land.
So these Japs from the pioneering group will work honestly and farm the land?
Impossible! They directly expropriated some of the best land from the original owners of the land, or at extremely low prices.
These lands were then leased to their original owners for cultivation, and they could live an easy life by collecting rents.
Even the surrounding old forests were occupied by these devils' pioneering groups. The original owners had to pay taxes to them if they wanted to cut some firewood.
Therefore, the devils of these pioneering regiments who got something for nothing usually trained with rifles in the morning.
Wearing a ferocious mask on his face, he screamed like a pig butchering, practicing assassination and shooting techniques.
Therefore, these people are just guys who eat steamed buns with human blood and do not deserve any mercy.
Therefore, after it was not such a difficult decision, Hu Biao waved his hand vigorously and issued a battle order:
"Let's start here. Any Japs with any weapons, even a bamboo sword, will be treated as enemies and will be killed immediately~"
After hearing this sentence, the AT and others in the team were a little hesitant. After all, in their opinion, the people in this place were just civilians.
Seeing this, Hu Biao only said: "Think about what these people eat, wear, and use..."
Braving the cold wind and heavy snow, the Zhongzhou team took action.
The middle-aged warehouse manager was at the back and found a shallow snow nest to set up a sniper position. Bai Xiang found a small dirt slope and set up the MG42 in his hand. The criminal served as the assistant shooter temporarily.
Got up.
The remaining 12 people swarmed around and slowly approached the pioneering group's station.
What the heck! The Japs in these pioneering regiments are quite afraid of death, and they have built their garrison with considerable defensive capabilities.
In other words, such a residence was the old residence of a certain landowner. In order to prevent bandits from attacking, it had a symbolic circle of high walls.
And on the four corners of the wall, there are several fort-like existences.
At this moment, there were four members of the Japs' Pioneer Regiment, standing on top with Type 30 rifles in their hands, and their vigilance was quite high even in such a cold weather.
So the middle-aged warehouse manager was assigned a task: to kill these Japs as soon as they discovered Hu Biao and the others.
