Mi Xaing 'er got into the Jeep. She was nervous the whole way and did not know how they got up the mountain.
When they were halfway up the mountain, she saw about half of the soldiers sitting on the rocks by the roadside. Their heads were lowered, and their faces were solemn. Although there were many people, they were silent and orderly. It was obvious that they were well-trained.
The more it was like this, the more serious the situation was. Mi Xaing 'er felt. Her heart tightened.
The Jeep drove past them. After a while, a few people came out from the front. Wu Zhifei saw them and quickly stopped the car. He opened the door and jumped out. "Xiao Liu, how's the situation?"
Mi Xaing 'er followed behind him. She looked up and saw the person in front. He was the Second Platoon Leader, Liu Shaoxi, who had helped her move.
Liu Shaoxi's face was still covered in mud, and his uniform was also covered in mud. However, he did not seem to care so much. He could not suppress his excitement. "Political Commissar, I … he …"
Wu Zhifei was calm. "Speak slowly."
"We set up 11 cannons on the mountain." Liu Shaoxi's eyes involuntarily looked at Mi Xaing 'er. He paused for a while and went straight to the point. "As usual, the regiment commander followed us. At the beginning, everything went smoothly. Nine cannons were successfully detonated. However, the remaining two cannons were duds."
Wu Zhifei frowned. "Why are there so many cannons?"
They did not detonate.
Duds.
Those were the most dangerous cannons.
No one knew when the cannons would explode, and no one knew how many casualties it would cause. They had to be eliminated in time.
Liu Shaoxi lowered his head. "We followed the procedure and waited for a while. However, there was no movement. That's why I suggested to bring people up the mountain to investigate."
Mi Xaing 'er could not help but look at him in a new light. On the day they moved, he was all smiles and looked like a young child. However, as a soldier, he rushed to the front in the face of danger. How could she not respect him?
However, what he said next made her have mixed feelings. "The regiment commander was afraid that I would be in danger, so he stopped me. He went up himself."
Yun Jingting went up the mountain.
As a regiment commander, he took the lead.
As a soldier, he was not afraid of death.
Yun Laohu was an indomitable man. He should be the most admirable.
However
Concern leads to confusion
Mi Xaing 'er felt a "boom" in her head. It was as if a sledgehammer had hit her chest. Her body swayed and she almost lost her balance.
She forced herself to take a deep breath, straightened her small shoulders, and quietly waited for him to continue.
Wu Zhifei asked sternly, "How many people are still on the mountain?"
"There are three team leaders, Gu Dalong and Chen Jiefang. He was the one who buried the cannons. He understands the situation the best."
As soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard. The deafening sound of a cannon reverberated through the mountain. Then, rocks rolled down from the mountainside. Although Wu Zhifei knew that they were at a safe distance, he still couldn't help but push Mi Xaing 'er to the side. "You guys retreat first."
Liu Shaoxi sounded both surprised and surprised. "It's exploding! It's exploding!"
Explode
Everyone's eyes were on the mountainside, praying for their safe return.
Finally …
A figure staggered out of the dust and smoke.
Liu Shaoxi immediately ran over.
Gu Dalong had come out.
His face and body were covered in blood. He was carrying someone on his back. That person's arms were hanging limply over Gu Dalong's shoulders. Fresh blood mixed with mud slowly dripped down from his rough fingertips. In an instant, it condensed into shocking blood droplets on the ground.
Mi Xaing 'er's heart raced. She rushed over and her voice changed a little. "Dalong, is this Head Of Yun?"
She immediately lowered her head to confirm.
She saw that the injured person wasn't Yun Jingting. It was an unfamiliar young man. His military cap had fallen off, revealing a head of thick, crew-cut hair. There was a pool of sticky blood mixed with fine dust and sand. It was a terrifying sight.
Liu Shaoxi exclaimed, "Jiefang, Jiefang!"
She immediately took the injured person from Gu Dalong's back. Wu Zhifei also rushed over. The few of them carefully placed Chen Jiefang at the side.
Hsu Mingwei took out all kinds of first-aid equipment from the medicine box and began to examine and bandage the injured person.
The scene was a little chaotic.
Gu Dalong was covered in blood. He stood at the side with his hands tied. Mi Xaing 'er looked up and asked him, "You're injured too. Where are you injured?"
"Yes, I don't know."
Sometimes, when people were in a life and death situation, they would be overly nervous and unable to feel the injury or pain.
Mi Xaing 'er glared at him and immediately began to examine him.
Wu Zhifei turned and asked, "Gu Dalong, where's Head Of Yun? He didn't come down with you."
Gu Dalong stood up straight. "Reporting to the political commissar. There was only one cannon just now."
He swallowed hard. Due to his nervousness, he stuttered a little. "When we arrived at the location where the cannon was set up, we didn't expect that there would be an accident. Head Of Yun was originally at the front. When he heard the cannon, he immediately turned around and pushed Chen Jiefang down. After that, he ordered me to carry Chen Jiefang down."
Mi Xaing 'er's voice was trembling. He didn't have the time and energy to pay attention to the wording. "Head Of Yun was at the front. Chen Jiefang was already in such a state from the explosion, but he … he still talked to you. He wasn't injured!"
Gu Dalong pondered for a moment. "It happened too suddenly. At that time, there was dust everywhere. I didn't see it clearly. Anyway, Head Of Yun's body and face were covered in blood. I don't know if it was Chen Jiefang's or his own blood."
Mi Xaing 'er took a deep breath and looked at the mountain that was still filled with smoke.
There was still one cannon that hadn't exploded.
Yun Jingting was left alone on the mountain. Would it be dangerous?
