The explosion passed and the dust gradually settled. There were still gunshots in the distance, but there was dead silence in front of him. The flares in the sky were gradually falling, the light was dazzling and deserted. Zhou Qingfeng raised his head and looked around, and dirt was flying from his head and face.
Fall.
There was an explosion crater about twenty meters away. The creaking tanks stopped and the mud houses that blocked the view were blown into ruins. The road disappeared and there was only devastation.
The clods of soil turned over, and another head popped up from Zhou Qingfeng's side. The gray-faced 'Old Machine Gun' looked around, and said with surprise and joy: "I'm not dead yet?"
"We are only one step away from death." Zhou Qingfeng stood up straight, pulled out his carbine from the soil and checked it. He felt that the surroundings seemed safe, so he took out a Hershey's wrapped in tinfoil from his backpack.
Chocolate' stuffed into mouth.
After eating more than a dozen hard chocolate bars, Zhou Qingfeng drank another bottle of water. He only heard an abdominal rumble and a few gastrointestinal movements, and everything seemed to be digested.
The hunger was slightly relieved, and Zhou Qingfeng felt that his strength had returned to some extent. So he loaded the gun, waved his hand to the 'old machine gun', and the two of them opened a distance of three to five meters to cover each other and moved forward slowly.
Just now, 'Dou Ding' volunteered to blow up the tank, but Zhou Qingfeng couldn't keep up with him. When he found the 'old machine gun', the explosion happened suddenly, and he was caught off guard.
After advancing more than ten meters, the M4A3E8 Sherman had become a must-hit Lanson lighter. Under the light of the fire, the car body overturned and the turret flew off.
Walking to the edge of the explosion pit, several mutilated corpses were lying down with radioactive signs. Zhou Qingfeng kicked a few times and found that these corpses were all American soldiers, "Where's 'Dou Ding'?"
"Maybe... he died." The voice of 'Old Machine Gun' was low. The veteran who was accustomed to life and death held the machine gun in a vigilant posture, guarding Zhou Qingfeng's rear.
"Fuck me!" The unknown anger in Zhou Qingfeng's heart burst out. There were ten people in the sharp knife squad, except for the deputy squad leader who had left temporarily. Only him and the 'Old Machine Gun' were left. "How many more people are we going to die?
ah?"
"At least we are strong enough." 'Old Machine Gun' was optimistic, "This tank alone is strong enough, let alone the American devils here. I have fought all my life, and now I dare to say that I am not afraid of any enemy.
.”
Compared with the optimism of the 'Old Machine Gun', Zhou Qingfeng is extremely pessimistic. Because he knows very well that a tank is nothing to the Americans - if possible, the Americans would definitely be willing to trade one tank for one of their own casualties.
People can totally afford it.
"It's a pity that 'Dou Ding' is dead..." Zhou Qingfeng sighed and was about to leave with the 'Old Machine Gun'. But a 'corpse' not far from him suddenly moved, got up and shouted to him
Say 'Squad leader, I'm not dead'!
Damn it!
Even though he was extremely capable, Zhou Qingfeng was already depressed after being suppressed and kicked out by the Americans all night. But when he heard this cry, he felt as if he was hearing the sound of nature and was overjoyed.
‘Old Machine Gun’ was also pleasantly surprised and shouted happily: “‘Dou Ding’, you are a lucky boy, you blew up a tank and didn’t die?”
This is really an eye-opener for God!
Zhou Qingfeng took a few steps forward, only to see the dirt-covered 'Dou Ding' rushing over with a dirty face. He quickly grabbed the opponent's shoulders, laughed and said: "Good brother, you can rely on me at critical moments!
If you hadn't blown up this iron bastard, 'Old Machine Gun' and I would have been in big trouble."
Hehehehe...'Dou Ding' kept scratching his head and giggling. 'Old Machine Gun' also stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. Zhou Qingfeng was in a good mood, waving and shouting: "It's better if you're not dead. Come on, we'll leave immediately and continue to give
Americans are causing trouble."
Zhou Qingfeng led the way, with 'Old Machine Gun' at the rear and 'Dou Ding' in the middle. The three of them were in good spirits and quickly evacuated happily. However, less than a dozen steps out, 'Dou Ding' suddenly fell to the ground without warning.
"'Dou Ding', what's wrong with you?" 'Old Machine Gun' stepped forward and pulled it.
"I... can't get up." 'Dou Ding' said with fear in his tone, "I can't feel my waist."
Zhou Qingfeng, who was in the front, had to turn back. The first thing that caught his eye was a conspicuous pool of blood on the back of 'Dou Ding', which had soaked into his cotton-padded clothes.
Damn it..., Zhou Qingfeng quickly cut open the cotton-padded clothes with a knife, only to see that Douding's lower back was bloody and bloody. He quickly said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, it's just a small injury."
"But I can't even feel my lower body. The moment I fell down, it felt like someone had taken away my back." As 'Douding' spoke, he trembled unconsciously, "Monitor, I'm a little bit
Cold, am I going to die?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is not cold in this weather?" 'Old Machine Gun' saw Zhou Qingfeng quickly bandaging 'Dou Ding' to stop the bleeding. His breath became mist and he quickly shouted: "The squad leader said it is a minor injury, it is a minor injury."
But while Zhou Qingfeng was bandaging, his face was ugly. The damage was caused by a .45 pistol bullet, which penetrated the lower back and entered the kidney. Just now, the bullet stuck in the wound like a plug, but now it hurts even after running a few steps.
If it is loose and blood spurts out, it is possible that the liver is broken.
This is not a minor injury... and it is not something Zhou Qingfeng can handle.
'Douding' touched his back, and his hands were covered with warm blood. He smiled bitterly and said: "I was too stupid. I thought about blowing up the tank, so I screamed excitedly, which attracted the enemy's attention. I just remember that I threw it
When he took out the explosive pack and turned around to run away, he seemed to have been knocked away, but it turned out that he was hit by a bullet."
Seeing Zhou Qingfeng scurrying around but unable to stop bleeding, 'Dou Ding' was very calm. He fell to the ground and asked: "Squad leader, I blew up the tank, am I not a coward anymore?"
"No, of course not." Zhou Qingfeng's face was stern, and he poured styptic powder on the wound as if it was free, but the blood that came out directly washed away the powder, "I have never had a coward under my command.
Anyone who dares to say you are naughty in the future will be thrown in front of a tank and crushed into pulp."
At this time, even 'Old Machine Gun' could see that something was wrong. The good brother who was originally good was about to lose his life. This steel-hearted man couldn't help but burst into tears and cried: "I'm sorry, 'Dou Ding!' The elder brother shouldn't say that.
You, you are not a coward, you are more courageous than me. I really wish it was me who got shot."
"Brother Machine Gun, don't cry. Squad leader, don't waste your time. So many comrades have sacrificed their lives. Now I'm here to blow up the tank, and I don't think I can survive."
I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that others will say I'm coward. Although I know that I am indeed quite coward, I can't be coward." 'Dou Ding' was as calm as explaining the funeral, but Zhou Qingfeng couldn't help but feel sour in his nose.
'Douding' continued: "When I joined the army, my mother told me that poor people have a low life, and if they want to live a good life, they have to endure hardships that others cannot bear. That was why my father joined the army, but
Once he left and there was no news, it seemed like there was no such person in our family.
But the situation is different now. We poor people finally have a way out. The recruiter told my mother that if you join the army, you will get preferential treatment, you can get more land, and my younger brothers and sisters will also get benefits.
I just joined the army for the benefits. When I joined the army, I wore a red flower and went to the front line beating gongs and drums. This is better than my father, right? Hahaha... If the deputy squad leader hears this, he will definitely say something about my ideological thinking.
Awareness is low.
But I joined the army just to bring some benefits to my family. I have asked about it, and if I can become a martyr, my family will get better treatment. At first, I was worried about whether this was true? But since I joined the army, everyone has
If you treat me as an individual, I will know that the country will not lie to me.
Monitor, I want to ask you something. You are very capable and you will definitely survive. Tell the leader that I died after blowing up a tank. As long as my family can be taken care of by the government, my younger siblings can go to school, and my mother can
It won’t be a loss if you give me some compensation. I have made a meritorious service, so I must be regarded as a martyr!”
You have to make me a martyr!
You have to make me a martyr!!
You have to make me a martyr!!!
The pleas made people cry blood. When he felt that the body of 'Dou Ding' was getting colder, Zhou Qingfeng beat the ground with hatred in his heart.
