"Take the machine gun and return to the town to report to the regiment commander, and then go to bed and rest!" The guard platoon leader did not want to stay here for a minute longer. After confirming that the machine gun was intact, he ordered with a frown.
And the moment he turned around and retreated, a sneer flashed across Li Hao's serious face.
As soon as the torches held by the guard platoon disappeared, Li Hao took off the rifle he was carrying, loaded the bullets, and began to issue orders.
"Chen Bing, take them to carry the two wounded and retreat immediately. Don't tell the wounded our true identities until we come back!"
"Li Jie, follow me. Bring enough weapons and ammunition. Set off now and rush in front of Bai Gouzi!"
Without the two wounded Red Army soldiers dragging them down, the guards could move back significantly faster.
The platoon leader ran with a box hanging on his waist, shouting as he walked: "Brothers, speed up, we can go to sleep after we get back! Go back early and rest early, there are too many mosquitoes in the forest, it is simply no place for people to stay!"
"Don't worry, platoon leader, we'll be out of the woods in more than half an hour!" the squad leader next to him said comfortingly.
The already fast marching speed accelerated a lot at this time.
"boom……"
An explosion suddenly sounded not far in front of the platoon leader.
"Bang bang..."
Before he could recover from the shock, two consecutive gunshots rang out in the woods nearby.
The platoon leader opened his mouth and was about to speak when a bullet flew over and pierced his chest like a long eye.
The stinging feeling from the chest quickly spread throughout the body, and the physical strength was like blood flowing out of the wound quickly, draining away quickly.
In the blink of an eye, all the strength in his body was drained away. He didn't even have time to let out a scream for help, and fell to the ground with a thud. His eyes were wide open, with a look of death.
The machine gunner carrying a light machine gun next to him also suffered the same fate. Before he could understand what was going on, he was smashed to the ground with his gun, and he died with his eyes open.
"The enemy is attacking, everyone, take cover!" A scream of fear quickly sounded in the forest.
The first squad leader stepped forward in time and took over the command: "The platoon leader is dead, everyone hide quickly, follow my orders now!"
The chaotic situation had not stopped yet, and Li Hao and Li Jie opened fire again.
Two gunshots rang out from different locations, and the two militia soldiers fell down and lay motionless on the ground.
"There are only two enemies in the forest, fight back and kill them!" A squad leader gave the order while judging.
"Put out all the torches. We will be living targets when the torches shine on us! Extinguish the torches and then fight back so that the enemy cannot see us!"
"Bang bang bang..."
Taking advantage of the large number of people, more than 20 militia groups opened fire quickly, and the crackling sound of gunfire soon rang out.
In the forest, branches were constantly broken by bullets and fell to the ground.
The squad leader frowned, looking at the woods dozens of meters away where bullets were flying, and quickly realized something was wrong.
"Everyone stop shooting!"
"There's not a single gunshot in the woods now. There are only two enemies who attacked us. They must have escaped!"
"Each squad will count the casualties immediately and prepare to continue on their way!"
In the forest dozens of meters away, under the cover of night, Li Hao and Li Jie held rifles in their hands and shuttled forward like ghosts.
Li Jie followed behind, frowning, and asked as he ran: "Platoon leader, why did you retreat so quickly? I haven't fought enough!"
"The enemy has just been disrupted by us. If they stay there, they will definitely have a chance to shoot. Maybe we can kill two militia groups!"
"It's too dangerous!" Li Hao replied with a serious look on his face.
"Bullets don't have eyes on the battlefield. As long as the enemy fires back, we may be hit!"
"We only have this little capital and cannot afford to lose, so no one can be killed or injured in tonight's operation, even if we are injured!"
"The next battle will be the same as before. Knock it back with one blow and never give the enemy time to counterattack!"
Li Jie's face showed an expression of sudden realization.
But soon he frowned again: "But if we hit and run like this, can we recapture the light machine gun before the militia comes out?"
A strong sense of confidence flashed across Li Hao's serious face again: "I can definitely get it back!"
"The militia group suffered at least six casualties in the raid just now and the grenade explosion. Carrying them while marching will slow down the speed. There are still three kilometers from the mountain here. If you have one sneak attack every mile, you can also sneak attack them five or six times. Not to mention...
If we take the machine gun back, we can even kill them!"
"Also, the enemy just put out all the torches, and they can't see their fingers on the mountain road. It's hard to fight them if they stay. It's easier to find another place to sneak attack them again!"
The casualties of the militia were greater than Li Hao's judgment.
The four people hit by the bullets were killed on the spot, and the booby trap arranged by the grenade killed one and injured two. In total, there were seven casualties. It took fourteen people just to carry the corpses and wounded!
The squad leader who took over the command had mixed feelings.
Now that he is the acting platoon leader, as long as he can bring everyone back alive, the acting platoon leader will probably become a full-time official. This is something he has longed for. Now that it has happened, he must be happy from the bottom of his heart.
But the screams that kept ringing in his ears, the dark woods around him, and the fear on the faces of his subordinates made him full of worries about the next section of the mountain road and worried about what kind of accident would happen next.
He frowned and ordered: "The troops have to hurry up and hurry up. It's too dangerous in the woods. We have to rush out as soon as possible. Only after we get out of the woods will we be safe!"
"boom……"
The thing he least expected to encounter happened.
When the explosion sounded, his nerves were tense and he subconsciously lay down on the ground, and then shouted.
"The enemy is attacking, take cover, extinguish all torches, and prepare to shoot back."
"Bang bang..."
Two gunshots followed immediately, interrupting his order.
Not far away, two soldiers were shot and fell to the ground before they could move.
"Bang bang bang..."
The remaining militia soldiers finally reacted, lying on the ground and shooting in the direction from which the gunfire had just come.
"withdraw……"
Seeing that the torches on the mountain road were extinguished, Li Hao gave the order decisively without any hesitation.
Li Hao left, but the squad leader who got up from the ground was desperate and wanted to cry without tears.
In the blink of an eye, three more of his subordinates were dead and one was injured. Adding the previous casualties, the number was eleven.
The number of guards who entered the mountain was only thirty-one. After taking into account the casualties, there were not even enough people left to carry the wounded and corpses.
