Chapter 273 Snowy Night Jungle
Chapter 273 Snowy Night Jungle
Those Japanese soldiers who were not killed quickly got up and followed the footprints.
However, due to the lesson just learned, they dared not follow the footprints again, but chased on both sides of the footprints to avoid encountering booby traps again.
When the Japanese captain ran up the mountain and looked at the corpses, wounded soldiers and footprints on the ground, he became so angry that his eyes were blazing with fire and he cursed with gritted teeth.
Because the footprints were left by war horses, and there were only fourteen war horses.
In other words, there were only 14 people from western Zhejiang who attacked their train.
Just 14 people caused more than half of his team to be killed or wounded.
Although only dozens of people died, many of the wounded suffered internal injuries, such as broken legs or feet or broken ribs.
There are estimated to be two to three hundred such wounded people.
Moreover, with such an injury, he will not be able to go to the battlefield for at least three months.
After all, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, and without three months of rest, it would be impossible to fight.
He was originally going to report to the front battlefield, but now, he has suffered so many casualties. If he doesn't kill these fourteen people, how can he have the face to stay in the military.
He was so angry that he could only continue to chase forward with his 14 men, determined to kill these guys.
Yuan Shuai and others were riding war horses at a very fast speed, and their transfer had left the Japanese far behind.
However, Yuan Shuai soon stopped again.
He rode on his warhorse, looking through a telescope at the Japanese soldiers in the snow in the jungle, and snorted coldly.
"Damn it, you know to avoid footprints and walk on both sides, do you really think you'll be safe by walking on both sides? Brothers, place mines on both sides of your footsteps!"
The order was given, and everyone dismounted and went to both sides to set up booby traps.
It is more concealed to lay booby traps in the snow. Just bury the booby trap line in the snow, place the booby traps on both sides of the snow, and clean up the traces. Because the snow is white, it is difficult for the pursuing Japanese to discover the existence of the booby traps.
Sure enough, the Japanese stepped on a booby trap again while chasing.
Ten cluster booby traps exploded in the Japanese army's ranks, killing more than thirty people on the spot and injuring more than twenty.
A squad of Japanese soldiers fell down in an instant.
The Japanese were so angry that they gritted their teeth and cursed, but they had to slow down their pursuit and disperse the troops to avoid encountering the minefield again, which would cause more casualties due to the crowded population.
As a result, the Japanese pursuit speed slowed down.
The speed of Yuan Shuai and others did not slow down at all.
When it was getting dark, Yuan Shuai found a windy valley and started a fire.
Except for a few sentinels, everyone else gathered around the fire to warm themselves.
"General Yuan, why don't you continue to retreat? Fatty Shanwa and the others should be on the way. If we continue to retreat, we can meet up with them and bring them with us to kill the Japanese!"
Jiang Feiyan looked at him with confusion on her face.
Yuan Shuai said as he baked sesame cakes.
"It took us two days to get here from Qinglong Mountain. Even if Monkey and his men are fast, they will still need a day to get here. We need to stay here and keep track of the Japs' movements. Otherwise, how are we going to kill them in the future?"
"What about Fang Hao? Are we not going to save him?"
Jiang Feiyan's eyes were full of worry.
After all, Huangying City had been occupied by the Japanese, and she didn't know whether Fang Hao was dead or alive.
There was even a gleam of tears in his worried eyes.
Yuan Shuai said as he chewed a hot baked pancake.
"Don't worry, we will definitely go to rescue them, but now we need to destroy the railway again to prevent the devils from entering Huangying City. Otherwise, there will be more and more devils in Huangying City. Even if we send all of us to Huangying City, we may not be able to rescue them!"
"Hurry up and eat, Xiao Xiami. You take the two brothers to stay and take good care of Miss Jiang. The others will follow me in an hour!"
"I don't need anyone to take care of me. I can shoot, and I even brought a revolver with me! I want to join the battle, too!"
Jiang Feiyan retorted unconvincedly, biting her teeth and taking out the revolver from her waist.
She had trained with the team in the county before and her shooting skills were pretty good.
This time she also brought a German twenty-gun with her. It was confiscated by the bandits when she was caught before, but after being rescued by Yuan Shuai, her German twenty-gun returned to her hands.
Moreover, during the previous battle, she had fired a gun and hit a Japanese soldier.
She was extremely excited at that time, feeling that she had finally killed the Japanese.
Now, of course, she doesn't want to be protected like a vase.
She also knew that Yuan Shuai already had few men, and if three more brothers were left behind, the number would be even smaller.
Yuan Shuai did not appreciate it and directly retorted.
"You don't have enough stamina and can't keep up with the speed. You will only hold us back. Stay here so as not to distract the brothers!"
"No, I'm going to kill the devils. I killed a little devil before!"
Jiang Feiyan raised her head and chest proudly.
Xiao Xiami said quickly.
"Boss, we are already few in number. If we leave three brothers behind, we will be even less manpower. Although Miss Jiang is unruly and willful, her marksmanship is still decent. Why not take her with you!"
"Yes, Boss. There are at least 500 Japanese soldiers. We don't have many grenades left. We can only rely on guns. One more gun might not be a bad thing!"
Hu Dacai also echoed.
Yuan Shuai glanced around, his eyes fell on Jiang Feiyan, and said.
"Then listen carefully. When you move, stay within three meters of me. Three meters!"
"Got it, Sanmi, Sanmi, I'm not deaf!"
Jiang Feiyan rolled her eyes, but she was still very excited.
After all, she had always wanted to kill the enemy and serve her country, and now, she had another chance.
Although she really wanted to save Fang Hao right now, Yuan Shuai was right.
There are too many Japanese invaders in Huangying City, so the railway must be cut off. Only after the troops in Huangying City are reduced will they have a chance to rescue the people.
Otherwise, even if they entered Yellow Eagle City, facing so many devils, not only would they not be able to rescue the people, but they would also lose the brothers of the Black Wolf Army...
The Japanese soldiers were exhausted after chasing us all the way in the snow.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers had already built many bonfires, and they gathered around the bonfires to warm themselves and eat, while complaining non-stop.
An hour later, Yuan Shuai's team extinguished the fire, rode their horses in reverse and headed towards the Japanese.
In the darkness, the ground is covered with white snow, and there is a certain amount of light at night.
In addition, war horses have night vision, so Yuan Shuai and others can make good use of them and move through the snow and forest without using flashlights.
Soon, they saw the Japanese's campfire from a distance.
Looking through the telescope, Yuan Shuai saw the Japanese resting next to the fire and a wicked smile appeared on his face.
"Good fellows! All gathered together! Then I won't be polite! All of you go around to the side, and open fire after you get 400 meters close to the enemy!"
After saying that, Yuan Shuai led his men to quickly detour towards the Japanese flank.
