under fire

Chapter 295

The sun had just emerged, and the sky was full of red clouds. Wisps of extremely thin mist appeared on the ground in the village, and slowly dissipated as the sun shone.

Needless to say, another extremely hot day.

Captain Meng was in a bad mood, sitting on a sloping field in the north of the village, coughing and knocking the burnt cigarettes on the gray Japanese military shoes.

Ashtrays were scattered on the ground.

Vice-captain Meng is actually not very old, in his early 30s, he was originally an honest farmer, he didn't join the army for a long time, and his body is a bit thin, so to be a vice-captain, he naturally has extraordinary skills.

Leading the guerrillas around to recruit soldiers, beat devils, and kill traitors, I didn't expect to be tricked by devils and sneak into a white-eyed wolf. If I hadn't met Jiulian, the entire army would have been wiped out in Shilidang. Before the arrival of Jiulian , the captain tried to break into the devil's encirclement, led the team to break through, unfortunately sacrificed, after being rescued by Jiulian, he followed Jiulian to make a big circle in the mountains, ran all over the southeast half of Taihang, and returned to the familiar place again. Things have changed.

Until last night, a soldier dug a trench and dug up a corpse.

A dozen or so soldiers in front were digging a bag of soil in a field. He hadn't figured out where so many ordinary people had gone. Even if they went into the mountain, it was impossible not to see a single person.

It is impossible for ordinary people to leave a bag of soil in the middle of the ground, so they feel frightened at first glance.

Thinking of what might happen under the soil bag, my whole body trembled.

The few female soldiers in the distance looked around at the entrance of the village, talking a lot.

Except for those on duty and those who were injured and unable to move, all the people left in the village and those who had just returned had arrived.

As a shovel of soil was shoveled away, a piece of tattered clothes stained with black stains was exposed, a gray mist was faintly released, and the stench began to permeate. set aside.

The soldier wielding the engineering shovel gave a strange cry, dropped the engineering shovel, and ran out quickly, his stomach churning, and he ran to the side with one leg and vomited acid water on the ground.

The crowd of onlookers spread out, and Lao Meng outside the circle trembled in his heart, hoping that it would not be the case. In the end, he leaned feebly on the small tree next to him, tremblingly took out shredded tobacco from his pocket, finally It is easy to stuff it into a smoke pot and light it with a match.

His brows were frowned together, as deep as a knife. He was obviously a middle-aged man, and he looked even older. He took a breath into his lungs desperately, and two wisps of smoke came out from his nose. He squinted his blood-red eyes slightly, Looking at the gray and smelly soil bag that keeps coming out of the land bag.

More than ten meters away, the stench penetrated fiercely into the nostrils.

A bad feeling came.

I have seen a lot of life and death, but it shouldn't be like this. Lao Meng finally gave up his fantasy. The folks in the village where he once stayed should have been found, but they didn't appear in front of him alive. Don't think about it, they are all in front of him. In the pit under the bag, there is a soil bag with a diameter of seven or eight meters, and the highest point is about one meter. He seems to be able to hear the children running.

I can also feel the simple and wrinkled old man calling, the aunt is calling the livestock home, and I can hear the middle-aged woman scolding her child for being disobedient, and the girl whispering shyly to the boy.

Everything is so real.

A soldier on duty hurried over from the north, shouting as he ran: "Captain, go and see, Ma Liang and Tian Sanqi are back!"

Old Meng stood up abruptly, ignoring the disgusting feeling and the shouts of the sentries, and staggered towards the dirt bag.

Seeing this, the two soldiers next to him hurried forward, pulled, struggled, hugged again, and dragged Lao Meng back.

The retreated people were slowly entering the village. The two were on a stretcher, and more than a dozen soldiers entered the woods outside the village, panting and exhausted.

The wounded Ma Liangtian Sanqi was there, and the soldiers carried the wounded and ran south from the time they discovered the devils until now.

With one hand in a bandage, Ma Liang managed to force a smile, breaking the gloomy atmosphere in the village: "What's the matter with you, what are you doing with such a sad face? The company commander and the others came back right after."

A soldier hurried forward and whispered a few words to Ma Liang and the others.

"What? Don't be dazed, hurry up and help!" After speaking, with a gloomy face, he immediately directed the female soldiers who were watching anxiously from a distance to come up to settle the wounded.

Regardless of the injuries on his body, he swayed and walked towards Captain Meng.

A fire was lit on the mound of soil, and Lao Meng knew that there was no other way but to use fire to burn the gray mist that kept coming out.

The mound was dug open bit by bit, and the firewood continued to increase the burning area.

It was no different from Lao Meng's imagination, tears blurred his eyes, and a trace of blood slid down his face mixed with teardrops.

The clothes have not all rotted, and among the gray and white bones are children who are only five or six years old, as well as old women who should be grandmothers, and some corpses with separated heads, people with incomplete limbs, missing legs, and hands, can be seen everywhere.

Nails were nailed to the bones of some corpses, and wires were tied with bullet holes. The upper and lower jaws of a middle-aged corpse were open, and something must have been stuffed in its mouth before death. To keep her from shouting and protesting when she was spoiled;
A young woman was not wearing pants, and there were obvious bayonet marks on her skull and pelvis. Perhaps after she was insulted, the Japanese army stabbed her with that sinful bayonet...

Captain Meng had heard of it, but it was the first time he saw it. He was on the verge of physical and mental collapse, kneeling on the ground with his mouth wide open.

Mouth issued a "woo woo." mournful whining.

Although he was mentally prepared, Ma Liang's heart tightened suddenly because of the crying. War is so realistic and cruel. He will not let anyone who is powerless just because of his age, gender or whether he is a soldier, no matter what. Whether you are willing to accept it in your heart, you have to accept it.

The atmosphere is sad, angry.

There are always a few big-hearted people at the scene: "Did this devil do it?"

"Don't talk nonsense, who else is there besides the god damn devil? How can they do it?"

"I want to kill someone now."

"I also think, who to kill?"

"Devil!"

"Now?"

"Correct!"

"then go"

"If you dare to speak out, I will kill you." A voice warned He Gensheng next to him viciously.

After finishing speaking, the two figures ignored the depressed and distressed crowd, disappeared to the east and slipped out of the village. Looking at their backs, one of them was a bandaged monkey.

There are many places with devils, and there are too many devils in the north, so I dare not go there. Isn't there a devil blockade in the east?Try your luck, maybe there will be an order?

"Stop, monkey? What are you doing here?" A female soldier stood up from a single soldier hole covered with weeds, holding a gun.

"I. Hey, I just want to go out for a walk."

"No, there is no order, and you are injured, so you are not allowed to leave the village without permission."

The monkey looked at the female soldier and suddenly smiled, feeling a little creepy.

The female soldier turned her head quickly, and a figure emerged from the ditch behind, with a rope on her shoulders, and rushed forward.

The female soldier tied up by the five flowers was shy and anxious, staring at the two guys in front of her with wide eyes, watching her rifle being lifted, the bullet box being taken away, and the water bottle hanging on the big man, whining Crying and struggling desperately.

"Don't waste your energy, I have never heard of anyone who has been tied up by me, who can break free. You can remember it for me. Grandpa went to the east to fight devils. Do you understand? Let the people in the village know that I am not just a deserter. "Big Yang smiled smugly.

"Hey, if you yell again, why don't I knock you out with the butt of a gun, you ugly bastard."
