Yuesong and his brothers retreated all the way to the northeast, and they only walked two or three miles. Xiaoyong, who was walking in front, suddenly raised his right hand and stood there, listening carefully to the movements in the woods not far away.
Yuesong and the others also stood still. At this time, Xiaoyong made a squatting gesture, and Yuesong and the brothers all found cover on the spot. Yuesong raised his sniper rifle and searched carefully through the sniper scope.
The target in the bushes in the distance. Sure enough, a New Fourth Army soldier holding a gun appeared in the sniper scope.
"Captain, you are just a grassroots person." Murong also saw it.
"Hide yourself and don't make a sound." Yuesong ordered.
Minghe and the others looked at the captain with puzzled looks, but they didn't dare to say a word.
Cao Gen'er, who was walking in front with a gun in his hand, continued to move forward.
Yuesong picked up the sniper rifle and aimed at the grass roots.
Minghe quietly approached the captain and whispered: "Captain, what are you..."
Yuesong turned around and glared at the Whooping Crane, then continued to aim at the grass roots.
Suddenly, Brother Chao stepped out from behind a tree and pulled the grass roots aside. The two of them took cover under the cover of the tree and hid themselves.
Xizi and Murong kept staring at the captain's finger touching the trigger of the rifle. Their hearts were beating wildly, wondering what kind of medicine the captain was selling in the gourd.
Just when the brothers were wondering why the captain was aiming a gun at their brothers, Yuesong suddenly stood up, threw the sniper rifle over his shoulder, and shouted: "Come out, Brother Chao!"
When Brother Chao and Cao Gener heard the captain's voice, they quickly stood up, took steps and ran towards this side.
Minghe and the others couldn't hold back their joy at seeing their brother, and rushed over shouting and jumping.
"Brother Chao, how are you doing? How many Japanese have you killed?" Xizi asked, holding Brother Chao's hand.
"Haha, I can't remember clearly, I guess there are seven or eight." Brother Chao said with a smile.
"Oh, the sun is out in the west today. Brother Chao not only laughs, but also brags, isn't it?" Minghe patted Brother Chao on the shoulder and said.
Xiaoyong took the newly captured Meichuan Type 99 sniper rifle from his back, handed it to Cao Gen'er, and said: "Brother Gen'er, look, look, the captain said this is Type 99, so the Japanese sent it to us.
Yes, how's it going?"
Cao Gen'er reached out to catch the Type 99 sniper rifle, put his eyes close to the sniper scope, took aim at the trees in the distance, and kept making "tsk tsk" sounds from his mouth.
"Minghe, your arm is injured? Is it serious?" Brother Chao asked with concern.
"Brother Chao, I was also injured. Why didn't you ask me, are you biased?" Xiaoyong said before he could speak.
"Aren't you partial? Brother Chao likes sniper rifles so much. Why don't you show Brother Chao the Type 99 you are carrying? Brother Chao?"
"Haha, we are all brothers. Whoever looks first is the same." Brother Chao said when he saw the captain walking slowly with a sniper rifle, "Captain!" Brother Chao saluted Yuesong.
Yuesong stepped forward, stretched out his fist and hit Cao Gen'er's chest, and said: "You boy, if the muzzle of the gun just now belonged to the Japanese, would you not have seen the King of Hell?"
"Haha!" Cao Gen'er touched the back of his head and giggled.
Yuesong turned around and looked at Brother Chao with a smile and said, "Brother Chao, you have some free time. You have to teach these wild boys a lesson. You can't fight with only courage."
"Yes, Captain!" Brother Chao replied loudly.
Yuesong looked at this brother, then at that brother, and suddenly asked Brother Chao with a stern face: "Where is Zheng Hai?"
"Yes, where is Zheng Hai?" Ming He also looked at Cao Gen'er and asked.
"Zheng Hai..." Brother Chao turned away before he finished speaking.
Yuesong turned around and looked at Cao Gen'er again and said, "What's wrong with Zheng Hai?"
Cao Gen'er lowered his head, his eye sockets were hot, and he didn't dare to speak.
Yuesong raised his leg and kicked the grass root, shouting loudly: "Tell me, what happened to Zheng Hai?"
"Captain," Brother Chao turned around, pulled Ye Yuesong and said, "Zheng Hai died. The Japs had a sniper in ambush in the north. It's all my fault for not discovering it in time."
Yuesong tapped Brother Chao's forehead with his finger, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "You, you, you are already an old sniper, how can you fall into someone else's ambush?"
"Captain, please hit me. It's all my fault for not protecting Zheng Hai." Cao Gen'er said with a cry.
Yuesong glanced at Caogen'er, angrily leaned the sniper rifle against the tree trunk next to him, walked to Whooping Crane, pulled out the big knife from Whooping Crane's back, and held the handle of the knife with both hands, "Ah!"
With a shout, he chopped off an arm-thick poplar tree next to him with a knife.
The branches of the poplar tree fell down with a click, and hit Xizi. Xizi grabbed the poplar tree and broke the branches with great force.
Yuesong walked forward a dozen steps, sat down on the ground, leaned his back against the tree trunk, took out his cigarettes, took out one, lit it, and smoked hard.
Seeing the captain's sad look, Brother Chao didn't dare to say anything, so he went to the side to keep a lookout with his sniper rifle.
After Yuesong smoked two cigarettes in a row, he stood up, walked to his brothers, grabbed a sniper rifle, and said to Cao Gen'er: "Let's go, take me to find Zheng Hai?"
"Looking for Zheng Hai?" Cao Gen'er looked at the captain in confusion, thought for a while, and then said, "Two teams of Japanese soldiers attacked us just now. I can't figure out where they are?"
"You are so stupid, you know the general direction, right?" Yuesong said, staring at the grass root.
"Captain, I know." Just as he was talking, Brother Chao came over and said. After Brother Chao finished speaking, he held the sniper rifle and started walking forward.
Yuesong was about to follow Brother Chao when Murong quickly said: "Captain, what if the Japanese set up an ambush?"
"Where are all the chances? My brother died, and you have the heart to let your body be exposed in the wilderness?" Yuesong said to Murong angrily.
"Let's go, you talk so much!" Minghe grabbed Murong and followed the captain forward.
The other brothers did not dare to speak anymore, lined up in formation, and set off one after another.
No one dared to speak along the way. After walking for about an hour, Zheng Hai's body was finally found.
Brother Chao squatted beside Zheng Hai's body and looked at Zheng Hai blankly.
Yuesong ran over and when he saw Zheng Hai's body, Yuesong couldn't help but burst into tears from his eyes.
Yuesong was crying while wiping the blood on Zheng Hai's chest with her sleeves. However, in this weather, the blood had dried long ago and could not be wiped off no matter how hard it was wiped.
Seeing the captain wiping away the blood, Xizi came over and took the captain's arm and said, "Captain!"
Yuesong stopped wiping the blood, and took out a silver hairpin from Zheng Hai's jacket pocket. Yuesong looked at the hairpin, carefully put it into his pocket, stood up, and looked around
What.
Yuesong saw an old pine tree, ran over quickly, pulled out the dagger on his belt, and dug a hole with all his strength.
When Whooping Crane saw this, he also ran over and helped the captain dig the hole with his machete. The other brothers also ran over and helped dig the hole with their bayonets.
Only Brother Chao didn't come over. Brother Chao walked away without saying a word.
In just one pack of cigarettes, the brothers dug out a grave.
Yuesong walked to Zheng Hai's body, bent down and picked up Zheng Hai, and walked slowly to the grave.
Yuesong slowly put Zheng Hai into the grave and carefully arranged Zheng Hai's military uniform.
Yuesong walked out of the tomb, knelt on the ground, and whispered to Zheng Hai: "Brother, after we kill all the Japanese, I will come to pick you up." After saying that, he started to pick up the soil with his hands, bit by bit.
.
The other brothers also knelt beside the grave pit and slowly filled it with soil.
When the grave was piled up, Brother Chao came over, holding a wooden sign that had just been cut with a bayonet in both hands, handed it to Yuesong, and said, "Captain, please carve a few words on it!"
Yuesong took the wooden sign and carved the words "Tomb of Martyr Zheng Hai" on the wooden sign with a dagger. Then he knelt on the ground and inserted the wooden sign in front of Zheng Hai's tomb.
Yuesong took out three cigarettes, lit them, and inserted them in front of the tomb.
Yuesong stood up, took a few steps back, and glanced at the brothers. The brothers immediately lined up side by side with the captain knowingly.
Yuesong and his brothers stood at attention together and took off their military caps.
"Salute!" Yuesong shouted.
Brothers salute together.
After standing in silence for a long time, Yuesong took out his shell gun, raised it high, fired a shot into the air, and shouted: "Brother! Let's go!" Yuesong fired two more shots in succession, and each time he fired, Yuesong
They would all shout "Brother, let's go!"
After burying Zheng Hai, Yuesong led his brothers towards Mulan Mountain.
