Hu Yi's face was dark as he quickly entered the bunker on the top of the mountain. Even though the little girl and Luo Fugui in the bunker were looking at him with a smile as he came in, Hu Yi's expression remained unchanged, still looking stern and serious; it was not because he was hit by a volley of bullets from his own people, nor was he pretending to be serious, but it was just Hu Yi's own battlefield habit.
He looked around the bunker in silence. The Japanese soldiers to the west were still more than 300 meters away and did not move. He could not see the situation to the south, but he could still hear occasional gunshots from the hillside. Hu Yi then shrank his body, looked carefully at the bunker, and said in a low voice: "Why are you here?"
"Originally the political commissar said..." Luo Fugui grinned and prepared to answer.
The little girl knew that Hu Yi was unwilling to let her participate in the battle easily, so she quickly answered: "The political commissar ordered the ninth squad to stay here to block the Japanese."
When Luo Fugui saw that the little girl had snatched up the conversation, he looked at her in surprise. Then he reacted, chuckled twice and said nothing more.
Hu Yi looked expressionlessly at the still smiling little girl, then looked at Luo Fugui, nodded slightly, and asked again: "Who dug this bunker?"
Since Hu Yi had a dark face and no expression, the little girl couldn't tell whether he was dissatisfied with the bunker or not, so she simply said, "It was dug by an idiot. I said he was not good enough. If I were to dig it, it would definitely be better than this."
Hu Yi nodded again, looking down at the large number of shell casings scattered on the ground inside the bunker. There were quite a few of them. He picked one up and fiddled with it between his fingers, then asked, "Who fired the machine gun?"
Luo Fugui panicked, and then he remembered the volley of bullets just now. He couldn't avoid it. It seemed that the evil star was going to settle the score. He felt his legs a little weak, and he stammered, "Well, I, Boss Hu, you, can't kill me, at least I..."
"That's not what I'm asking." Hu Yi interrupted Luo Fugui: "I'm asking who has been suppressing and shooting at the Japanese?"
The little girl immediately jumped out again, raised her little hand and pointed at Luo Fugui: "Him! He beat me up. I was hiding behind and didn't dare to show my head. I was scared to death just now." Being clever is the little girl's strong point. She knows that Hu Yi cares about her safety the most. She doesn't want to show off in front of Hu Yi, otherwise, Hu Yi might not let her do whatever she wants in the future. So she has to act like a good girl at this moment.
"You—" Luo Fugui was about to get angry when he heard the little girl say such shameless things, but suddenly he thought, this can be admitted, this is not a bad thing! He quickly patted his chest and immediately changed his words: "That's right! Without you, Boss Hu, who can take the responsibility of the ninth class? Only I, Luo Fugui, no doubt!"
Hu Yi looked expressionlessly at the two men of different ages in front of him. He understood the situation clearly. He threw away the empty shell in his hand, climbed out of the bunker in the doubtful eyes of the two in front of him, picked up the helmet next to the Japanese corpse outside, came back, put the helmet on the little girl's head, raised his fingers and knocked on the helmet, and said to the girl: "You don't need to shoot so accurately now, be careful, just suppress them and can't get up. In addition, the bunker is well dug, but you didn't dig a transfer channel and a backup bunker, so you still failed." Then he ordered Luo Fugui: "From now on, you not only have to load bullets, but also always observe the other three directions of your side and back. Even if there are your own people covering in other directions, you must pay attention and leave no blind spots. If you don't want to die too early, you must develop this habit in the future. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I remember!" Luo Fugui nodded quickly. As long as it was about survival, he was very focused.
Hu Yi picked up his rifle and said, "Get in position now and keep fighting." Then he climbed out of the bunker and ran towards the south slope with his back bent.
Hu Yi thought that Ma Liang and Liu Jianqiang were together. After running a few dozen meters south, he saw two Japanese corpses and heard faint knocking sounds. The gunshots in the south should be on the mountainside, so what was going on
Hu Yi slowed down his pace, held the rifle steady, pointed it in the direction of the sound, concentrated his mind, moved carefully, went around a boulder corner, and then suddenly moved sideways.
In the earth pit behind the boulder, Liu Jianqiang's face was covered in blood, his body was dirt-colored, and his military uniform was tattered. He was riding on the body of a Japanese soldier lying on his back. He was holding a stone in his hand and kept hitting the head of the soldier, which had already been half broken, again and again. The sticky and broken brain matter was mixed with the mud on the ground, and the white, gray, yellow, red, purple and black brain matter formed a large sticky pool. He didn't even know that Hu Yi appeared beside him, and continued to grit his teeth and act fiercely.
Hu Yi had experienced this kind of scene too many times on the battlefield. Liu Jianqiang was in an unconscious state. Hu Yi did not want to offend him, so he raised his foot and kicked Liu Jianqiang's shoulder, causing him to fall down. Liu Jianqiang dropped the sticky stone and fell into the pit. Liu Jianqiang looked up blankly and saw the people at the edge of the pit. He jumped up with his teeth bared and stretched out his bloody fingers to grab Hu Yi.
This time Hu Yi exerted all his strength, raised his foot, and kicked Liu Jianqiang hard in the chest. With a thud, Liu Jianqiang fell back into the pit. His internal organs were churning and he coughed violently. He slowly raised his bloody face and finally saw the person in front of him clearly. He was stunned for a moment, then grinned, revealing his blood-red teeth, and began to whimper softly.
Hu Yi looked down at Liu Jianqiang, who was crying hoarsely in the pit, and said calmly, "The battle is not over yet. Go pick up your gun and follow me."
Ma Liang was determined to fight these two devils to the end, otherwise the people on the mountain would be in trouble. If I can't stick my head out from this position, I will retreat a little, change my position and stick my head out again to return a shot. When you turn the gun around to greet me, I will change my position again. The three of them were between the southern half of the slope and the low hill, firing long-range shots back and forth, unable to do anything to each other.
Bang! Suddenly, gunshots were heard from the top of the mountain. Ma Liang, who was hiding on the low hill to the east, was startled. Since the four grenade explosions, there had been no other sounds on the mountain except for the occasional machine gun fire. Ma Liang thought that Liu Jianqiang and the three Japanese soldiers who went up had died together. After such a long time, gunshots were heard again. God bless! It seems that Runny Nose is not dead. This wooden-headed man has finally come to his senses. He should be coming down to help, right
Bang, bang—gunshots were heard again. Ma Liang hurriedly and cautiously poked his head out and looked carefully towards the top of the mountain. There were actually two people! Who was that? A mule? Wasn't he as big as him? He didn't care about that anymore. He put his guns on the counterattack. It was time to fight back. The two sides crossed. I want to see how you two survive this time!
After more than a dozen gunshots, the target stopped responding. Hu Yi reloaded his rifle with bullets, waved to Liu Jianqiang who was about ten meters away to the side, then crouched down, and dodged down the slope using the terrain as cover.
When they arrived at the target location, they found that the two Japanese soldiers were already dead. This position was used to attack Ma Liang in the east. The fire suddenly came from the direction of the mountain and there was no way to dodge. One of them was killed on the spot by the first few shots. The remaining one tried to move to another position, but was killed on the way by the cross-fire from two directions.
Ma Liang held his gun and ran at great speed until he got closer and could see clearly. He couldn't help but shout excitedly: "Brother, you, you are back. You don't know, we..."
Hu Yi looked at Ma Liang, who was running up to him breathlessly, and spoke directly before he could finish his words: "I know everything. Now follow me over here. We will fight back the way the Japanese fought us. Tooth for tooth!"
