Agents of the Republic of China

Yazawa Shinichi's laughter didn't last long, because he found that something was wrong with the ground under his feet, a slight trembling came from the depths of the ground, and everyone felt this different feeling at this time, He looked at his feet in a panic, as if some kind of beast was about to break out of the ground.Finally, the rolling thunder that had been pent up for a long time exploded under his feet.Everyone's faces were ashen, and as the land swayed up and down, everyone knew that a lot of explosives must have been buried at the foot of the hillside.

The entire mountain range was shaken, and the hidden birds in the woods seemed to have been ordered to take off, soaring into the sky, chirping and flying to the highest point in the sky, while the beasts lowered their heads and continued to run wildly towards the deepest part of the forest.

The not-too-high hillside seemed to have been sucked out of the cornerstone suddenly. The thick smoke and dust from the bottom surrounded the entire hillside, and the billowing gray storm stained the verdant forest in a radius of more than ten miles.

After a long time, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the hillside disappeared without a trace, while the ground was blown up uneven, the green vegetation disappeared without a trace, and even part of the underground river under the ground was blown out, exposing it on the surface Above, it merges with the river channel that was buried by the situation before, flowing to the distance of the mountains and forests.

Ergou frowned, he didn't expect the explosives left over from that year to have such power.Scarlett was let go by Ergou. He didn't want to kill Lin Xiaotang's acquaintance, but confiscated her Springfield rifle. Ergou wanted to keep her, but Scarlett insisted on being with his subordinates, so Ergou had no choice but to let her go. .Just when it was dawn, Ergou saw everything that happened on the hillside. He saw the proud Japanese officer at a glance. He was extremely familiar with that face. Before Lin Xiaojun and his wife died, Ergou and Fang Rou were at Lin's house I have seen the same smile in my little yard.This made him very impressed.Because, the third uncle who single-handedly raised him died at the hands of this Japanese.

Therefore, he ignited the explosives that the Gendarmerie brothers had buried under the hillside. He didn't care who those people were on the hillside. Everyone who came to Tianmu Mountain for gold!

But Ergou did not expect the power of the explosives. He couldn't help leveling the entire hillside, and even blasted out the underground river.Looking at the direction of the water flow, Ergou couldn't help but feel a little worried. Because of the explosion and the boulder, the flow direction of the river has been changed. In this way, wouldn't it be poured into that place.

Er Gou stomped his feet, and felt that he was really a little reckless. He whistled, "Sai Hu!" Hei Lang jumped up from the grass shaking his head and tail, and galloped towards the depths of the dense forest behind Er Gou.

……

Two hours later, Lin Xiaotang, Huoyan, Guo Zhui and a dozen of his subordinates rushed to the place where Ergou had stopped before.The mountain road was completely blocked, the river changed its course, and it was impossible to travel along the line of sky. Everyone had to climb up the mountain ridge and look around for a new route.

Last night, Lin Xiaotang and others had already arrived at the camp where the rescuers had been rescued, and they also found the traces of the people who had been stationed, as well as the three tombs left behind.Then they searched all the way to the vicinity of Yixiantian, and couldn't help but find the bodies of those Americans. Along the way, they also found the remains of the black shirt army and Jiecao troops.

At first, just in case, Lin Xiaotang and others did not get too close to Yazawa Shinichi's pursuit team. Lin Xiaotang's plan was to follow behind them and act when they needed to make a move, but once they entered Tianmu Mountain, things became a little weird .

Lin Xiaotang was also secretly careful, so he didn't enter the first line of sky immediately. He didn't take his subordinates into the battle area for field observation until the gunshots rang out nearby.But the night was too dark and the distance was too far, so the whole battle process was not clear.

It wasn't until early this morning that the gunfire gradually subsided, and Lin Xiaotang and the others sneaked into the first-line sky, but just after they entered the first-line sky, they encountered the earth-shattering explosion. Although Lin Xiaotang and the others were still far away, they were also affected. So he had no choice but to pause until everything returned to calm before carefully climbing up the mountain ridge.

"Brother Seven, are you still chasing him?" Huoyan observed the surroundings and the environment on the mountain road through the scope. "The Japanese have suffered heavy losses, and Li Shiqun has not been left alone. The losses of both sides are not small. Maybe they will die together here."

Guo Zhui nodded, "After looking for a long time, I didn't find any alive!"

Lin Xiaotang remained silent. From the bottom of his heart, he did not believe that Li Shiqun and Yazawa Shinichi would simply die here. Moreover, there was Xia Zhiping. Lin Xiaotang would never give up without seeing their bodies.

One of his subordinates ran up, "Sir, there are traces of people's activities in the woods, but it's strange, there are still some things found inside."

When they saw what their subordinates brought over, Lin Xiaotang and the others were stunned. It was clearly a Belgian-made fnbar machine gun, but it was already rusty and had two conspicuous bullet holes. What was left was a few An official rifle in the shaft, also very old.

"In addition to these, there are the German-made steel helmets that ** used before, and the little devil's [-]-type rifles and military water bottles, etc."

"Could it be that this was a battlefield before?" Guo Zhui raised his head and looked around suspiciously.

Lin Xiaotang took the machine gun, looked at it carefully, and looked back at the flattened hillside, and asked Huoyan, "Can you see what was used to blow it up?"

Huoyan nodded, "Just checked, a lot of TNT explosives with German-made detonators, and a lot of ammonium nitrate explosives!"

An idea suddenly popped up in Lin Xiaotang's mind. Over the years, the matter of Zhou Chaojian, his elder brother Lin Xiaojun and Ergou has always been lingering in his mind. Although the general context has been outlined, many details still need to be clarified.

Just like the five hundred gendarmes and the large amount of gold they transported, where these people and things went is still a mystery.Tianmu Mountain is just a rough outline. It straddles the two provinces of Anhui and Zhejiang, and the ground area is astonishingly large. Where can we search for a hidden hiding place?

To this day, Ergou still wanders in this forest. Sometimes, Lin Xiaotang also doubts, what is his purpose of staying here?What did the eldest brother tell him before he died?Is he guarding this batch of gold?Still waiting for something?

But last time, the two dogs were close at hand, but they still chose to avoid meeting each other. What made him give up his affection for the other party and resolutely hide here for so many years?

Lin Xiaotang was in a state of confusion, looking at the dense forest stretching to the horizon, he gave an order decisively, "Go, walk along the forest, we must find Ergou's whereabouts!"

……

According to this, under the cliff several miles away, the water flows slowly into a mountain depression, surrounded by green trees, surrounded by cliffs and cliffs, as if all connections with the outside world are cut off, only birds and agile beasts can visit here .

Due to the increase in the amount of water, the lake water gradually overflowed and slowly soaked into the surrounding grass.

Li Shiqun poked his head out of the lake with his mouth wide open. Because of the lack of oxygen, his complexion was extremely pale, and he greedily breathed in the fresh air.It took a long time before the violently heaving chest slowly calmed down, and his eyes turned around.

A few more figures were washed down from the upper reaches of the water, and Li Shiqun ran over with difficulty, inspecting them one by one, and gave up the breathless body with a sigh.Not long after, Xie Yunchao swam over with his hands thumping, and Li Shiqun grabbed him.

Xie Yunchao spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and then regained his composure.

Li Shiqun grabbed his collar, "Fuck, where's Zhiping?"

Xie Yunchao looked blank, "I don't know, I fell into the water when I fell from the mountain, and it took me a long time to swim to get here!"

Li Shiqun let go of him bitterly, and continued to search in the lake.But a voice sounded from the shore, "Here!"

Li Shiqun turned his head and saw that Xia Haoming and two black-shirted soldiers had already lay down on the grass supporting Xia Zhiping.

Xia Haoming's face was frighteningly pale, and the wound on his leg was bleeding again.

Li Shiqun was inexplicably pleasantly surprised, and ran to the shore in three steps at a time. Mei Xiping had fallen into a coma again, his forehead was still a little hot, and the wound on his abdomen was a little cracked.

Li Shiqun hurriedly took off his shirt, wrung it dry, helped Xia Zhiping wipe off the water on his body, took out a handkerchief, dipped it in some cold lake water, and put it on Xia Zhiping's forehead.

Xie Yunchao and Xia Haoming looked at each other and smiled wryly.

"Where's the military doctor? Where's the military doctor?" Li Shiqun suddenly called out loudly.

"He was beaten to death a long time ago!" Xia Haoming replied holding back his breath.

"What should I do, Zhiping's wound is infected, what can I do without a doctor!"

Xie Yunchao couldn't stand it anymore, and grabbed Li Shiqun's arm, "Brother, you are our backbone, you can't mess up your mind for a woman, don't forget, the brothers in Hangzhou are still waiting for us to go back!"

Li Shiqun calmed down after waking up the dreamer with one word, "Yes, yes, that's right, as long as we return to Hangzhou, we still have a chance, and Zhiping will be fine!"

Xia Haoming pressed the wound and looked at the surrounding environment, "Let's find the way out first. There are cliffs on all sides here. We were washed here by the underground river. Whether we can go out is still a problem. The current is so fast. , the waterway is impassable no matter what, and besides, the water keeps staying, the mountain depression we are in is like a mouse hole, it will be submerged sooner or later, we must find the way out as soon as possible!"

In just a few minutes, a few more people came out of the river, some from the wrong troops, and some from the black shirts. Without saying a word, Xie Yunchao shot a few bursts and killed the Japanese soldiers one by one.After staring for a while, everyone's physical strength has almost recovered, and no one emerged from the water, so they dispersed and searched for a way out separately.
