Hearing Murong's words, the 19 women all panicked, and then they also panicked and picked up the guns that were on the Japanese corpses or scattered aside, and then shiveringly touched the Japanese bullet bags, grenades, and food.
Seeing this, Lin Mingrun and Wu Shang also sped up their movements. They had limited bullets. They had just used some and only two-thirds were left. Moreover, the sound of gunfire attracted the Japanese, so they had to get some guns and bullets as backup. Originally, they had to get some guns and bullets as backup.
, they should have evacuated after exploring the intelligence, and then reported the information. In this way, the Japanese would not know anything, and Zhou Weiguo and the others could take advantage of the situation. But the three of them encountered this incident. The investigation mission cannot be said to be a failure, but it can also be considered a success.
Failed.
"Okay, let's go this way!" Lin Mingrun took the lead and walked towards the way they came. They had climbed from the mountain to this area before, and this was the only way they could go if they wanted to escape the pursuit of the Japanese.
Behind them, the 19 women began to move away and follow Lin Mingrun. Wushang and Murong used Japanese grenades to set up several booby traps, and then followed.
…
"Fortunately, the roads in this area are not easy to navigate," Lin Mingrun sighed, "otherwise, the Japanese would have caught up with us in a car."
"Yeah." Wushang still hummed.
Lin Mingrun was a little helpless. Sometimes he just wanted Wu Shang to say more, but it was always difficult. At this time, they had already reached the low mountain before, and the chasing Japanese were still at the place where they had just fought.
The occasional explosions told a few people that they were the result of booby traps.
…
"Baga! Who is it! Haven't they blocked all the roads in and out?" A Japanese major was furious, "The Chinese people are so cunning that they don't even let go of the corpses of the warriors!"
"Captain, there are still 30 guns left among the warriors, and the pistol on the squad leader is missing."
"Baga! This kind of approach doesn't look like Tubal Road! If it were Tubal Road, everything would be taken away!"
"Is it the national army?"
"It's impossible, we have set up checkpoints outside! It's impossible for the national army to come in."
"Moreover, the gunfire just now was obviously not a firefight between large forces! And based on the situation at the scene and the direction in which the warriors fell, it was obvious that there were attacks from three directions."
"Yalu!" The Japanese Major was angry again. After analyzing and analyzing, he still didn't know who the enemy was. "Continue to pursue for a while!"
"Hey!" So, nearly a thousand people moved forward and continued the pursuit.
…
"Hide well and don't make a sound!" Lin Mingrun said to the crowd. The trees on their short mountain were not dense, and the mountain was not too high either. Lin Mingrun and the other three asked the 19 women to lie down on the ground.
Then they took some branches and grass and started to disguise themselves on these people. Then, they themselves.
At this time, the Japanese also pursued him near Aishan.
"Baga!" the Japanese major gasped and became furious. From the place where the battle took place to Aishan, it was almost 2 kilometers. In addition to the 2 kilometers he ran before, he ran 4 kilometers at once. The Japanese soldiers were a little overwhelmed.
.
"Captain, the enemy must have escaped." A captain said, wiping his sweat. It was already October, but the weather was still very hot. "Besides, the warriors are very tired."
"Yalu! Go back and carry the bodies of the warriors back!"
"Hi!"
As a result, nearly a thousand Japanese troops began to slowly walk back.
Most of the Japanese soldiers wiped their sweat and followed without saying anything, but their expressions betrayed them and they felt very unhappy.
…
After a few more minutes, Lin Mingrun put down the telescope and said, "You can come out now, please keep your voice down!"
"Huh, they're all gone finally." Murong also breathed a sigh of relief. If they were really discovered, it would be difficult for the three of them to fight with so many Japanese.
"Three brothers, thank you." At this time, a woman came out and knelt down in front of the three of them.
"Hey!" Lin Mingrun grabbed the little girl's hand to prevent her from kneeling down, and then her face turned red, "This is what we should do, girl, please go home quickly."
As soon as these words came out, all the women present lowered their heads, and some began to sob again.
Seeing this, the three of them finally understood. It was estimated that all the family members were gone and had been harmed by the Japanese.
"Old Lin, what should we do?" Murong frowned, "If you don't know, forget it, but if you know, you have to let them go back to the villagers to, um, collect the bodies."
Lin Mingrun nodded and said, "Wushang, you go back and report the news to Master Zuo and the others first. Murong and I will stay and go back with these girls to have a look. If these girls have no place to go, we will go to Yongxiu or Nanchang."
Wu Shang nodded, then turned around and went down the mountain.
Seeing this, Lin Mingrun said, "Girl, is your village far away?"
"Just walk about 5 miles further and you'll be there."
"Okay, then my brother and I will accompany you back to take a look."
"Thanks."
Half an hour later, Lin Mingrun and Murong were speechless when they saw the scene in the village. At the end of the village, more than a hundred villagers were dead and lying on the ground. However, there was still a faint cry of a child.
"There is a child!" Murong said immediately, "Don't cry yet!" After listening to the directions carefully, Murong ran to a house in the village. When he came out, he was holding a baby in his hands.
"Brother!" At this time, a woman ran over and took the child.
"Girls, let's search carefully to see if there are any survivors." Lin Mingrun said, "If anyone in the family is hidden in the cellar, maybe the Japanese have not found them."
After hearing what Lin Mingrun said, everyone who had a cellar at home quickly ran home.
…
In the end, only 3 girls and 2 boys were found, all aged 56, 78, plus a child of several months old, a total of 6 survivors.
"You damn little devil!" Lin Mingrun cursed, then took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, went to a room to get tools such as hoes, and said, "Girls, the weather is hot, let's let the folks go to their graves.
Bar."
Murong also took the tools and started digging on the spot. The village was considered abandoned.
And their location was at the end of the village. When they saw Lin Mingrun and Murong, some people stopped crying, returned to their homes, and started to get tools. No matter what, they had to be laid to rest first.
"Sister, are your parents dead?" a boy asked. Although he knew the word "death", he didn't know what it meant.
When a girl heard her brother ask this question, she was stunned for a moment, and then almost cried again. But in front of her brother, she would be the best in the future, "Yes, Tiedan will follow my sister from now on, and my sister will protect you."
It is said that a woman is strong as a mother, and the same is true for a sister.
"It's okay, sister, don't cry. Tiedan will work hard to grow up and protect sister in the future!" The child's words finally made the woman burst into tears.
An hour later, a pit large enough to accommodate hundreds of people was dug out. More than 20 people dug together, and the speed was relatively fast.
…
Lin Mingrun looked at the survivors, kneeling in front of the tomb, and told himself more than once in his heart that next time, he must recover more places and protect more people, so that such a tragedy would not happen. At this time, he
They also remembered what happened when they followed Zhou Weiguo on the way to Wuhan during the Battle of Wuhan last year. Today, such things will not happen in Jiaodong area, but there are still so many places across the country.
"Murong, we must let the little devil pay with blood."
