Chapter 315 Climbing the Cliff
But who would have thought that at this moment, the artillery behind suddenly fired two more flares.
Moreover, the two flares were heading towards the direction of the two Japanese devils.
The flares exploded, and the Japanese area in both directions became brightly lit.
The Japs were running fast.
With the help of the light from the flares, Fatty and Monkey had seen the position of the devils through the telescope, and then quickly passed the coordinate table to the artillery behind them.
"Bakayaloo! Another flare! Scatter! Everyone, scatter and detonate!"
The Japanese felt something was wrong and were so scared that they quickly scattered and roared, looking for places to hide from the shells.
Soon, shells whizzed towards them.
The shells exploded in the Japanese army, creating dazzling flashes of fire.
At the Flying Eagle Fort behind, all the artillerymen stretched their necks to look at the situation here.
Seeing the flames from the exploding field artillery, all the Japanese soldiers felt something was wrong.
Because they already knew that at the same time that Captain Tian Nei Lian was defeated, a field artillery battalion had been wiped out by the Black Wolf Army.
So there were no field artillery in the team in front of them.
And now the field artillery is bombarding continuously. It is definitely not them who are bombarding the Black Wolf Army, but the Black Wolf Army is bombarding their troops.
"Bakayaloo! Damn Black Wolf Army!"
"Bakayalu, why hasn't Tianshui sent the coordinates yet?!"
All the Japanese artillerymen were complaining angrily.
All the devils' attention is focused here.
Although they also arranged people to defend the back mountain, these defenders had already turned around and were looking in front of Feiying Fort.
At this time, Yuan Shuai had already led his men to the foot of the back mountain under the cover of dense woods.
The back mountain is relatively steeper, and there are many forks in the road.
Not to mention at night, even in broad daylight, you will get lost without a guide.
However, Yuan Shuai's team had Xiao Shitou and Goudan leading the way.
Although both of them could no longer walk, Xiao Xiami and Xiao Zhuzi from the Black Wolf Army carried them on their backs and walked on the road.
With the guidance of Xiao Shitou and Goudan, the team climbed up the mountain quickly.
However, when they reached halfway up the mountain, the marshal at the front suddenly stopped.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
Xiao Zhuzi lowered Shenyang's voice and asked.
"There is danger ahead. The Japanese have occupied Feiying Fort for so long, they must have conducted a comprehensive reconnaissance of the entire Feiying Fort. Therefore, it is impossible for the Japanese not to defend the road to the back mountain! Shitou, Goudan, are there any other ways?"
"Yes, but it's a 30-meter-long steep cliff. Goudan and I have climbed up it before."
"But it's night, and..."
Xiao Zhuzi and Goudan gritted their teeth and lowered their heads.
If there was nothing wrong with their feet, they would have climbed up the cliff from the other side at all costs.
But now, they can't even get down to the ground or walk, let alone climb the cliff.
"Go the other way! Lead the way!"
Yuan Shuai did not hesitate at all and let Xiao Zhuzi guide him to the bottom of a cliff.
The cliff is really steep. Although it is not 90 degrees, it is probably at least 70 degrees.
Late at night, even with moonlight and starlight, the steep cliff is still dark and it is difficult to see the specific situation on the cliff wall.
There are occasionally one or two small trees on the cliff, but other than that, it's all rock.
Looking at the steep cliff, everyone couldn't help swallowing.
"It's so high it's a cliff!"
“It’s so steep, there’s no way I can climb it at night!”
"Or try throwing a hook!"
"Nonsense! If there are Japanese soldiers up there, they will find you even if you throw it up there. Then, every one of us will die here!"
"Boss, why don't we take another route!"
Everyone's eyes turned to Yuan Shuai.
Yuan Shuai had already started taking off his weapons and equipment while speaking.
"Give me the rope! I'll go up first!"
"Boss, I'm coming!"
"I come!"
Xiao Zhuzi and Xiao Xiami quickly grabbed Yuan Shuai's hands.
Yuan Shuai pushed their hands away and smiled.
"You have already used up a lot of energy carrying people up the mountain. You don't have the strength to climb. Besides, who among you can beat me in climbing a mountain? Don't worry, I'm fine!"
"But……"
"Shut up, this is an order!"
"Then be careful!"
Xiao Zhuzi and Xiao Xiami gritted their teeth and stopped talking. They could only hand the rope to Yuan Shuai.
Xiao Shitou and Goudan spoke quickly.
"Go up ten meters and turn right. Go up five meters and turn right. Go up eight meters and turn left. Remember, don't make any mistakes!"
"Do remember this, otherwise... Boss, be careful!"
The two were quite familiar with the terrain here and also with this cliff, and they quickly told Yuan Shuai about their experience.
Yuan Shuai nodded and began to climb up.
Everyone below looked up at Yuan Shuai, and prayed in their hearts, hoping that their boss would reach the top of the cliff safely.
Fortunately, the light of the moonlight is bright enough.
In addition, Yuan Shuai's eyesight and night vision are quite strong.
He climbed up while observing, changing direction according to the instructions of the small stones.
There was actually a small group of Japanese soldiers at the top of the cliff.
However, the Japanese thought that it was impossible for anyone to climb up from here in the middle of the night.
So these devils were either looking at the artillery fire in the other direction or sitting against the rocks and smoking.
Some people even hummed their Japanese songs proudly, looking relaxed and contented.
"It's your turn, go over the cliff and check out the situation!"
Suddenly, the squad leader shouted at one of his men.
"Don't look at it. No one would climb such a high and steep cliff, let alone at night, even in broad daylight, unless he really wants to die!"
The subordinate exhaled a puff of smoke in dissatisfaction.
"Don't talk nonsense. The Black Wolf Army is full of reckless people. Who knows if they will come from here. Let's go and check it out!"
The men had no choice but to turn around and walk to the edge of the cliff.
But the mountain in Feiying Fort is high and the wind is strong.
When he was two meters away from the cliff, the guy stopped, picked up a stone and threw it down the cliff.
Listening to the sound of falling stones and hearing no other sounds, this guy laughed evilly, clapped his hands, and turned away.
Yuan Shuai was furious.
Because the stone accidentally hit his right hand, and it was bleeding.
If he hadn't been so strong and hadn't been holding on tightly to the protruding rock on the cliff, he would probably have been knocked down by the rock.
You damn Japanese, just wait, I’m going to kill you soon!
Listening to the footsteps fading away, Yuan Shuai continued to climb up with gritted teeth.
Finally, he poked his head out from the edge of the cliff and looked at a small group of Japanese soldiers gathered around a fire not far away. Yuan Shuai gritted his teeth, slowed down and climbed up.
