Yuesong was sitting by the stream, smoking a cigarette and thinking.
"Captain!" Murong suddenly shouted softly.
Yuesong dropped the cigarette butt, grabbed the rifle and ran over.
"There are ghosts." Murong said, staring ahead.
Yuesong picked up the sniper rifle and found a group of Japanese soldiers coming quietly towards this side. Judging from the equipment of the Japanese soldiers, it was not Meichuan's special team. There were thirty or forty people in total. They were all moving lightly, and the speed was relatively fast. Each one was light.
Lightly, the one at the front of the queue moved forward while searching, followed closely by a major. The one at the back was always paying attention to the rear of the team.
Yuesong thought to himself, a squad of thirty or forty people, led by a major, looked like it was no ordinary squad. Moreover, looking at the tactical proficiency of those Japanese soldiers and their coordination with each other, they were not ordinary people.
Minghe also came over and handed the kettle to the captain and Murong: "What's going on?"
"If I'm not mistaken, they may also be coming for our special team." Yuesong said.
"What to do?" Minghe asked.
"Evacuate!" Yuesong said and led his brothers to retreat toward the northwest.
It took Umekawa more than half an hour to arrive at the station where Colonel Murashita was stationed at Mitsufengxia. After entering the station, Umekawa immediately went to see Colonel Murashita.
Just outside Colonel Murashita's camp, four corpses were covered with white cloth. Umekawa walked over, opened the white cloth and saw that it was Eto and three of his men.
At this time, Colonel Murakami walked out of the tent.
"Umekawa-kun, your opponent is not the ordinary New Fourth Army." Colonel Murashita said to Umekawa.
Umekawa saluted the military commander Murakami and said, "Looking at the wound, it was caused by a sniper rifle."
"As you said, I didn't pursue it on a large scale. I don't know what Umekawa-kun can do." Colonel Murashita said.
"Colonel, I have my own way of dealing with the Chinese special forces." Meichuan said.
"Well, I hope you achieve something this time." After saying this, Colonel Murakita turned around and entered the camp, continuing to study his marching route.
Umekawa led seven or eight of his special team members and pursued them in the direction where Yuesong and others had withdrawn.
Brother Chao and the three of them came all the way, but did not find the Japanese motorcycle team again.
"Captain Chang, why have the Japanese disappeared?" Cao Gen'er asked.
"The sound of the motorcycle has disappeared!" Zheng Hai also said.
"With so many hills and woods, it's normal that you can't find them. No matter how many there are, just keep going forward, but you can't find the Japs. As long as the Japs start fighting with the captain and the others, we can sneak over to support them," Brother Chao said.
.
"That's all we can do." Cao Gen'er said.
"Then let's go." Zheng Hai said eagerly.
"Well, let's go!" Brother Chao said, leading the two brothers to continue heading north.
Meichuan led people to the top of the hill where Murong sniped Jiang Teng. The hilltop was full of craters blown up by mortars. Meichuan checked on the top of the hill and found traces of fallen leaves that had been trampled on and small branches that had been trampled on.
Looking at the traces of tripping, Meichuan judged that the members of the New Fourth Army's Special Forces sniper team were heading north.
Meichuan waved his hand, and several Japanese soldiers carrying hundreds of rifles followed the trail. Meichuan grabbed a sniper rifle and followed quickly.
Yuesong led Whooping Crane and others to evacuate in the northwest direction. After walking two or three miles, Whooping Crane who was walking in front suddenly raised his hand and squatted down.
Yuesong and Murong also squatted down. Yuesong walked gently behind Minghe.
"Over there!" Minghe pointed to the dense forest in front and whispered.
Yuesong took a look with his sniper rifle and saw that it was another small group of Japanese. Because the forest was too dense, the number of people was unknown, but judging from the equipment and movements, they were similar to the group of Japanese in the northeast.
While he was observing, a Japanese major appeared in Yuesong's sniper scope.
"Another small group of Japs, Meichuan wants to double-team us." Yuesong said softly.
"How about we retreat and leave the Japanese confused?" Minghe said.
"No, I can't bear to say that Meichuan is already behind us now. We don't want to bump into Meichuan when we go back," Yuesong said.
"Wouldn't it be better if we bumped into Meichuan, who destroyed Gori?" Minghe said.
"How many bullets do you have left?" Yuesong asked.
"Not much more, just one magazine." Whooping Crane said.
"This is over. After you finish shooting this magazine, you can take your big knife and fight the Japanese." Yuesong said.
"Fight as hard as you can, I'm just trying to chop off Gouri's head." Minghe said.
"Shut up!" Yuesong said, glaring at Whooping Crane.
The whooping crane squatted there and did not dare to make a sound.
Yuesong observed the Japs' movements for a while and said, "Go due north."
"Yeah!" Whooping Crane replied.
"You're with Murong, I'll take the lead." Yuesong said, holding the sniper rifle and walking forward.
When Minghe saw the captain leaving, he said softly: "If you start, you can do it!" After saying that, he waved to Murong Yi, who followed him, and the two quietly walked into the forest.
