Chapter 206 Chen Erniu is injured
206
Xu Hongchang grabbed Tang Shengkai's hand and said, "Old Tang, it's not the end yet. Don't do anything stupid."
Tang Shengkai was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Battalion Commander, you misunderstood. The number of Japanese soldiers on the other side has never been determined, and it's not a good idea for us to just wait here. So, I thought of a way."
"What method?"
Tang Shengkai looked at the others and said, "Everyone, hold the position first. I'll be back soon."
After saying this, Tang Shengkai ran directly into the dense forest. Seeing Tang Shengkai's speed, several people found it incredible. No matter how many times they watched, they still felt that this speed was truly beyond the reach of humans.
"With Old Tang's speed, even if we can only reach half of his speed, it will be fine."
Chen Erniu expressed his feelings again. Bu Mancang didn't even look at him. "If we have the chance to go back, we must train like Old Tang and fight to the death."
The others thought it made sense. How long had Old Tang been in the army, and he had already trained to this level? If he was given more time, maybe he would be even better.
Chen Erniu shook his head. "I think Old Tang is different from us. Even if we work as hard as he does, we may not get the same results."
"The enemy has started building bridges again."
After Bu Mancang finished speaking, he began to prepare. The enemy had become smarter and didn't always build bridges at the shortest distance. Tang Shengkai used to be fast, but their speed was no match for him. If they built a bridge farther away, Bu Mancang felt uneasy.
Fortunately, Tang Shengkai's speed just now was too fast, and now it was dark, so the other side didn't seem to notice that Tang Shengkai was gone, and they were ready to increase their firepower and attack again at the nearest place.
When the wood was delivered to this location, Bu Mancang had already clenched the wooden stick in both hands. As long as those guys got on the wooden bridge, he would immediately take action.
Chen Erniu followed Bu Mancang and grabbed the stick together. Bu Mancang felt the change in the strength in his hand and looked back at Chen Erniu. Chen Erniu chuckled and said, "I'll come over and help."
“Here I come!”
Bu Mancang and Chen Erniu exerted their strength at the same time, holding the wooden sticks in their hands and hitting the wood on the abyss. With a "beep", the wood on the abyss was knocked away half a meter by the two men.
The enemy standing on the abyss swayed, but did not fall.
"These cunning guys are actually fixing the wood over there. Come on! Try harder."
Chen Erniu gritted his teeth, Bu Mancang said nothing, and the two dodged the bullets and pushed hard again. With a "beep", the two pushed hard again, and only a small edge of the wood was left above the abyss.
Chen Erniu smiled and said, "It's fully stocked. If you keep pushing, it will go down soon."
When Chen Erniu exerted his strength again, all the veins in his body popped out. Bu Mancang was not much better than Chen Erniu.
This piece of wood doesn't look thick, but it is a big tree after all. It is really wet and heavy. The two of them have to hit the wood in the abyss with great force every time, which shows how quickly their physical strength is consumed.
The more time passed, the more they admired Tang Shengkai. They really didn't know where that kid got so much strength from.
The enemies on the abyss saw that the wood on this side was about to be knocked down, and knew that it was unlikely that they would come over, so they quickly ran back. They were tied with ropes to prevent themselves from falling into the abyss and being smashed to pieces.
So Tang Shengkai killed forty or fifty Japanese soldiers on the first day. After that, they learned their lesson and the casualties became smaller and smaller.
After finally using up all their strength, Chen Erniu and Bu Mancang had just pushed the wood into the abyss. Before they could catch their breath, Fei Shuwen spoke anxiously, saying that they had built a bridge upstream.
Several people looked in the direction of the voice and their eyes turned red.
Bu Mancang didn't have time to rest and wanted to rush forward dragging the wood.
Chen Erniu grabbed Bu Mancang and said, "Mancang, what are you doing? Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Bu Mancang had no intention of stopping at all. "We must hurry over to stop it. It will be too late if we delay any longer."
Several people pulled Bu Mancang, "No, that's beyond the defense range of the stone stall we built. Going over there would be like going to die."
The abyss over there was more than one meter farther than this side, and it would take some time for the enemy to build a bridge. Bu Mancang looked back at the few people, and smiled on his muddy face, with dirt falling down from his face.
"Battalion commander, political commissar, and brothers, my life has been worth it." After saying that, he rushed forward.
The enemy was always paying attention to what was happening on their side. They were building a bridge over there and were trying to prevent them from causing trouble.
"Full warehouse!"
Chen Erniu did not let go of the wood, and raised his foot to rush out with Bu Mancang. As soon as Bu Mancang showed his head, the enemy's bullets fired towards them like they were free.
Bu Mancang was determined to die, but he couldn't die before he could stop them. So he quickly squatted down, and the stones and sand they had piled up just blocked him.
But Chen Erniu was not so lucky. On the one hand, he had to go and help Bu Mancang, and on the other hand, he was a little excited and dizzy because of Bu Mancang's words, and was rushing forward desperately.
Xu Hongchang and the others didn't even have the chance to say a word to stop it. Seeing a bullet about to hit Chen Erniu's head, Xu Hongchang used all his strength to pull Chen Erniu back, but it was too late.
Just as a bullet was about to penetrate Chen Erniu's head, someone suddenly pulled his arm hard, causing him to fall to the side. His other arm was raised, and with a "pop" sound of the bullet entering the flesh, Chen Erniu didn't even grunt.
Bu Mancang felt Chen Erniu following him, and when he squatted down, he instinctively turned around to pull Chen Erniu's arm, but his grab was empty. In this gap, Chen Erniu's left arm was hit by a bullet.
Chen Erniu endured the pain and looked at Old Tang who was looking at him gloomily, grinning, "Old Tang, you saved my life again."
Tang Shengkai said nothing, but his face looked very bad. He stood up and went back halfway to carry the wood he had brought back. Everyone had time to look over, and then their breathing became heavy again.
The trees Tang Shengkai brought back this time were thicker and longer than before, and he brought back four of them. If it were someone else, these four trees would have crushed them to death.
But Old Tang carried it as if nothing had happened.
Taking advantage of the fact that the firepower was not here, Tang Shengkai dragged in the two outermost trees that attracted bullets and placed two larger trees there. He had other uses for the remaining two trees later.
Looking at the tree riddled with bullet holes, Xu Hongchang frowned, then slowly relaxed his brows. "We have to split the tree open, otherwise it will be difficult to get the bullets out."
The enemies in the distance had slowly pushed the wood onto the cliff on their side. Tang Shengkai picked up a large stone and when the five enemies walked to the middle, he threw the stone directly at the wood.
Before the enemies could react, the wood on Tang Shengkai's side was hit and sawdust flew everywhere, and then fell into the abyss.
The Japanese soldiers' cries of "Ah Ah" were heard, and Tang Shengkai did not hold back this time. They tied ropes around their waists, thinking that their companions could pull them up the cliff.
Tang Shengkai took off the slingshot hanging on his waist, picked up some stones on the ground and shot them directly with the slingshot. With a few "bangs", he sent several Japanese soldiers into the abyss.
The Japanese fired a lot more fire in this direction, but with the new defense, their safety factor was much higher.
Tang Shengkai used a big rock to smash the tree full of bullets into pieces. Several people quickly picked up the fallen bullets.
The remaining Tang Shengkai lit the wood directly and ran to a distant place to get back a bison. The Qinling Mountains were really rich in resources. Although their situation was very critical, they were not really hungry.
Wang Junhui was bandaging Chen Erniu's wound. Chen Erniu didn't say a word the entire time. Only when he saw Tang Shengkai bringing back a bison did he howl twice, "Oh, Old Tang, my wounded soldier needs to eat more beef to replenish his body."
Tang Shengkai looked at Chen Erniu and asked, "Does it feel good to be shot through by a bullet?"
