A commotion had already begun. Shuoyu saw the veterinarian explaining to everyone, "Those were really Japanese soldiers." Da Kui, the guy who had been with them from the beginning, taking the plane all the way to where they were now, said to others with trembling eyes, "They were Japanese soldiers! The dead were Japanese soldiers!"
Shuo Yu covered his mouth with his hand. He looked at most of the faces he was familiar with and said calmly,
"They're the Japs trying to infiltrate us and cross the river with us. It's the same old trick, isn't it?"
He spoke as if it was a matter of course, as if he had seen it many times. In fact, it was not a lie. After all, he had seen such a plot many times, but it was just on TV. This was the first time in real life.
This makes those who are a little hesitant start to doubt themselves, wondering if they have too little experience.
As soon as Shuoyu finished speaking, he heard a gunshot. He turned his head and saw Doubing's legs were red. It was the man from the Wanshou Garden who was frightened by this scene. He shouted "Imperial Army" and wanted to run away without looking back.
Shuo Yu recited a long wind in his heart,
Before anyone could react, this man from Chengde, Rehe, whose real name was unknown, Li Youcai, was turned into a headless corpse. His six and a half kilograms rolled to the ground and rolled all the way to the feet of their leader. Long Wenjian kicked him a little further away like a football, forcing Meng Fanle to swallow the words he had originally wanted to say, "He is a Chinese."
In the blink of an eye, Changfeng had been wiped clean by Shuoyu and put back on his back. He looked around at the guys who were obviously not in good shape, clapping his hands to attract everyone's attention.
"Alright, alright, there are no more Japanese fighters left. It's time to cross the river. It's time to cross the river. The wounded go first!"
The leader finally came to his senses, jumping and shouting,
“Go home, go home!”
This sentence was like turning on a button, making them start moving and coming alive again.
The veterinarian treated Doubing's gunshot wound. Fortunately, the bullet went straight through his leg without injuring any bones or tendons.
"It's all wrapped up, that's all."
When Shuoyu and his men were organizing the wounded and the elderly to cross the river first, the enemy's artillery shells had already hit them.
Several Japanese scouts ahead fired bullets, which penetrated the leaves and hit the area around them.
“Get down—!”
The sound of cannon fodder was so close to them that everyone, like rats that were stressed by the sound of artillery fire, lost their ranks and order and began to swarm and rob the few bamboo rafts.
Bu La and Yao Ma dragged Dou Bing, who had injured his leg, while Veterinarian and Fan La protected Mi Long's wife and children. They walked quite fast. A Yi had been frightened out of his wits. His mind had been in a mess since he was asked to kill the Japanese invaders.
Milong was watching from the other side, worried about his wife and children. He couldn't row across by himself, so he thought of the best idea he could think of. He held a big rock in his hand and walked across the turbulent river with his own body.
The Nu River has drowned countless people, including Milong.
Everyone was running, everyone was thinking about survival. Their leader was the fastest runner among them, but he was not running to seize the bamboo raft before others, but to make these guys turn around and fight back.
He held up the butt of his gun, standing on the bank of the Nujiang River, violently knocking at all the bodies close to the bamboo raft, forcibly creating a vacuum zone for himself. Shuo Yu stood in front of him, holding Changfeng in his hand, and looked at the crowd with him. Both sides looked at each other.
There were only two people on Shuoyu's side, him and the team leader, but there was a group of people opposite him, that is, everyone except the two of them.
The ones facing them in the front were the brothers who had just come out of the pork, cabbage and vermicelli stew pot with Shuoyu. They stared at each other with wide eyes, and no one wanted to retreat.
Not spicy. The veterinarians blinked their eyes as they watched their leader and Shuo Yu standing together. They had seen the power of guns, and they had also seen the sword in Shuo Yu's hand that could cut through iron like mud and chop off people's heads like tofu. So the two sides were in a stalemate.
The Japanese artillery fire was hitting all around them, stirring up a cloud of gravel and dust, making it impossible to open one's throat or eyes. Along with the sound of the artillery fire was the sound of death.
“Ah! Why are you running? Why are you running?!”
The smoke and dust from the magazine of bullets fired by Long Wenjian made those closest to him step back involuntarily and squat down.
Now everyone's heads could finally listen to something. Shuo Yu held a light machine gun in his other hand, with a full box of bullets ready to be fired at any time. He looked at these guys who stood on the opposite side of him with a serious expression.
"Look back, those are some Japanese scouts. Are you going to take their bullets with your butts? Sniping! Do you understand what sniping means? We have come all the way from Burma and are about to reach home. Do you want to stay here forever?"
"Why would you be afraid of a few zombies who are just as busy going home as you are?!"
"Want to live? After we cross the river, we can all go home, but we have to kill those scouts first. Have you ever seen an idiot who took a bullet with his butt and survived?!"
Shuo Yu said nothing, listening to the roar behind him. He felt like a child being scolded by his parents. He followed the leader because the leader was right and the right thing should be done.
He looked at the group of guys who were looking at him and said only one sentence,
"Listen to him, or we'll never be able to go home."
At this moment, Milong might really be "immortal" as he said. The fast-flowing Nujiang River did not wash him away. He just relied on his strength to swim back with a big rock, and swam back to his wife and children.
