Completely ignoring what Staff Officer Li said, Fang Zhan ordered again. After hearing his order, everyone looked at each other hesitantly, only Lao Deng raised his rifle without hesitation.
"Let's see who dares." Staff Officer Li was obviously very angry and raised his light machine gun at Fang Zhan. The conflict between the two sides seemed to be about to break out.
"Captain, I think killing ordinary people is a bit..." Yan Wei didn't know where he got the courage. After pondering for a long time, he finally stood up and said.
"What? Do you think they are ordinary people?" Fang Zhan asked with a strange smile.
"Well, we are dignified Chinese soldiers, not indiscriminately killing innocent little devils. If we kill ordinary people, what is the difference between us and the little devils?" Now that he had said it, Yan Wei simply continued.
"I propose a show of hands. If everyone agrees with your order, I have no objection. Now, those who agree with Fang Zhan's order will raise their hands." Before Fang Zhan could speak, Staff Officer Li intervened again.
After hearing his words, several people looked at each other and hesitated whether to raise their hands. Only Lao Deng raised his hands resolutely and solemnly to express his opinion.
"Raise your hands if you agree with my opinion." Seeing this, Chief of Staff Li exhaled and said again.
Obviously there are many people who have the same idea as Yan Wei. After seeing Yan Wei raise his hand, several other people looked ugly, but they all lowered their heads and raised their hands.
"It's up to you." Seeing this, Staff Officer Li put down the machine gun in his hand, turned to Fang Zhan and said.
"Withdraw!" Fang Zhan, with no expression on his face, ordered loudly.
The silence along the way made people feel extremely depressing. After what happened before, everyone seemed to have a sense of trust between each other, and the eyes that occasionally looked at each other were a little more guarded and worried. And just now
In this atmosphere, the team quickly entered the area of another village.
This time, facing a village of a similar size as before, Fang Zhan did not issue an order to encircle it again. On the contrary, looking at the sun hanging in the middle above his head, he unexpectedly issued an order to rest.
What is the difference between resting under the eyes of the enemy and committing suicide? After hearing Fang Zhan's order, everyone looked at each other in surprise, but in the end they knew enough not to ask.
Hot food was unavailable. Being so close to the enemy, all he could do was chew biscuits and drink some water. The monkey in charge of the guard focused almost all his attention on the civilians coming and going not far ahead.
But even the tense rest time in front of him did not last long. Soon, a more tense situation appeared again.
A group of enemy soldiers dressed exactly like regular troops soon appeared in the center of the village. All the residents were pushed and pulled by the soldiers and gathered in the open space in the center of the village. Immediately afterwards, a series of roll calls and searches began in the village.
There was a sound in the room, and the originally peaceful atmosphere was suddenly broken by a burst of chickens and dogs.
"Hmph, let's see, these are the civilians you call them. We have only been away for less than an hour, and the enemy has followed us. What does this mean? It means that those civilians you keep saying you want to let go, did not even waste a minute.
They betrayed us. This is war, not a monastery of mercy. We are soldiers. Although we are not executioners, we are not good men and women." Fang Zhan said angrily as he looked at the dull-looking men who gathered around him.
In the face of the evidence, no one said anything to refute. At this moment, everyone was more worried about their own safety than commenting on the character of others.
Captain Fang Zhan seemed to want to emphasize his correctness. Although he camped in such a dangerous place, he had no intention of leaving.
Seeing everyone's uneasiness, he seemed to be enjoying himself and sat alone under a big tree with a smile. It wasn't until Staff Li finally couldn't restrain his doubts and walked over that he stopped smiling and turned to him.
"What do you want to do? Defend the authority of your commander?" Seeing the other party's nonchalant look, Staff Officer Li asked with a face.
"I have authority in my own right and don't need to defend it. I just want these compassionate Buddhas to know that their compassion for their enemies is their own sin. Look at those enemies, they are the consequences of our compassion!
"
Fang Zhan said calmly.
"I hope you really think so. If that's really the case, even if you act arbitrarily, I will still carry out your orders. What I'm only worried about is that you mix personal feelings in the task." Hearing Fang Zhan's answer.
, Staff Officer Li said again.
"Integrating personal feelings? Do you think I would be so despicable? I will not use the convenience of work to seek my own personal gain." Fang Zhan immediately counterattacked sarcastically.
"Shut up, what kind of place is this?" Just when the two were about to get entangled again, Lao Deng suddenly stood up, got in between the two, and stopped him in a low voice.
"Big blow, be careful... Do you think it's interesting for you to be like this? Gentlemen, tell me what you have done to make your parents and the country proud? Yell a few times to pretend to be a man, and cry.
Is it interesting to shout about rights, opportunities, etc.? Everyone is pretending to be like a pretty girl on the stage. I think it would be bad enough for any girl to really fall in love with someone like you. Tell you two, I don’t care
No matter how many stars you have hanging on your shoulders, I will not take anyone who blocks the mission here seriously." After giving instructions, Lao Deng criticized harshly.
Silence fell again, just like before. Although there was a sign, it was still not welcomed by everyone. Except for Da Chui who was lurking in the grass and paying close attention to the enemy's actions, everyone felt extremely embarrassed in this silence.
"Everyone is here, turn back and march with force." The first person to break the silence was Fang Zhan's unchanging command. After hearing the order, everyone packed their backpacks and trotted back towards Fang Zhan.
Yan Wei felt that all this was like a drama
But he didn't know where the trouble was. Looking at Lao Deng who was walking at the end of the team, Yan Wei deliberately slowed down and prepared to go over and strike up a conversation.
"What?" Seeing what Yan Wei meant, Lao Deng raised his thick eyelids and asked in a low voice.
"Captain, what's going on with Staff Li?" Yan Wei asked in a low voice immediately after hearing Lao Deng chatting with him.
"What big deal can you do for a girl?" Lao Deng glanced at the two people walking in the middle of the team with disdain, and then said.
"Counsel Li stole someone's wife?" Yan Wei asked again.
"You are a kid, your eggs and hair haven't even grown yet, why are you asking?" Upon hearing Yan Wei's question, Lao Deng immediately scolded him angrily. Yan Wei's face turned red after being scolded, and he lowered his head and quickened his pace.
He got rid of Lao Deng and caught up with Da Chui in front.
"Landmine!" Before anyone could react, Lao Deng shouted in a low voice, jumped to the side, and carefully observed his surroundings.
The mine was indeed a mine. Following the location pointed by Lao Deng, Yan Wei could clearly see a pull ring with a slight metallic luster hidden under the turf. A tripwire was firmly tied to the pull ring.
Above, the other end is tightly tied to the trunk.
"Be careful not to touch it!" When he heard that there was a landmine, the monkey was the first to rush over to see what was going on. When he saw the monkey approaching, Lao Deng immediately pounced on him, knocked him down, and reminded the others loudly.
"Bang!" At this moment, a gunshot rang out.
There are always sacrifices in war. For those who are lucky enough not to go to the battlefield, the sacrifices are just the numbers reported in newspapers, or some percentages and some dots represented by red circles, but for the soldiers on the front line
To put it bluntly, it is a real bloodshed and sacrifice.
Whether it is the string of non-verbose characters after the battle, or the stacks of certificates and medals handed out in the summary report, in fact, what people deliberately avoid is the meaning they represent - each number is a once fresh line.
living life.
The opponent used sniping methods that were very similar to Lao Deng's, including mines along the way, and a precise shot from a distance.
The bullet hit Lao Deng, but not his vitals. While knocking down the monkey, Lao Deng also flashed his own vitals out of the opponent's sight. The bullet only made a gash in his thigh, but even so, the bright red
The blood still soaked Lao Deng's military pants in an instant.
"Yan Wei, you stay, and the others should retreat immediately. The sound of gunfire will attract the enemy's large forces, so retreat quickly!" Lao Deng climbed down from the monkey and said to the others without resting.
Upon hearing his words, Fang Zhan and Staff Officer Li instinctively looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Blow the leader, everyone else, leave the battle immediately." Under Fang Zhan's instructions, the rest of the people turned their heads and strode away in the other direction!
"Remember, we will rest at point b for thirty minutes, and we can only wait for you for thirty minutes at most." Fang Zhan, who was walking at the end of the team, suddenly pulled Yan Wei over and said. After hearing Fang Zhan's instructions, Yan Wei
Wei nodded silently, then grabbed the submachine gun in his hand and fell next to Lao Deng.
"There is no one. I'm afraid that guy will change places after just one shot." Seeing Yan Wei coming to his side, Old Deng looked around with a telescope and whispered immediately.
"Leaved?" Yan Wei asked.
"I'm not afraid of leaving, but I'm afraid of not leaving. The captain made so much noise when he left and didn't even see this kid show up. I'm afraid he didn't leave. He might be waiting for us." Old Deng said worriedly.
"What do you think if I leave you here?" Feeling that his words might bring a burden to Yan Wei, Lao Deng spoke again.
"No idea." Yan Wei asked strangely.
"Nothing? If something happens later, remember, you don't have to collect the body for me, just help me take the bag back from my coat pocket." Lao Deng said with a serious expression.
"Is it not that serious? Are there many people on the other side?" Looking at Lao Deng's serious expression, Yan Wei immediately asked nervously.
Lao Deng's eyes became deep and he said quietly.
"The less crowded people are the next best thing. The problem is that I'm afraid we'll run into a tough fight this time!"
