War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 97 Flags
Under the cover of the rumbling artillery, the gunshot did not attract anyone's attention at all, but the soldier running behind staggered and fell on the ice, clutching his buttocks and screaming.

The soldier running in front hurriedly looked back, and then not only did not stop, but even accelerated his pace and rushed towards the shore.

The old hunter pulled the bolt to reload the bullet, and fired another bullet at the figure jumping left and right on the ice.Just like just now, this shot also hit the Soviet soldier in the ass, directly making the other party incapacitated.

Putting down the gun in satisfaction, the old hunter Ino waited for a while, then shook the reins, yelled at the reindeer to pull the sled and ran up the ice, circled around to the last soldier who was hit, and stopped slowly.

Without needing to know, Wei Ran and Mika each took a piece of buckskin rope, tied his hands and feet, and carried him to the sleigh.

After drawing a circle and returning to the edge of the forest, they threw the captive under a pine tree. The three of them returned to the ice again, followed the same pattern and brought the No.2 captive back to another pine tree more than fifty meters away. under the pines.

He opened the man's sack and took a look. It contained all kinds of food, even a half bottle of vodka and a few gold rings.

Throwing all these things into the sleigh cart behind him, Wei Ran put the muzzle of the submachine gun on the wound on the opponent's buttocks, and asked the most critical question directly, "Is your division commander Zelentsov in the forest?"

"No, he left last night!" The prisoner screamed and replied, while twisting his body, trying to avoid the gunshot wound.

"Where did he go?" Wei Ran continued to ask.

"The frontal battlefield! He went to the frontal battlefield!" The prisoner quickly replied, "Last night, many Finns attacked our camp. Comrade Commander was worried about the danger, so he drove to the front line near the village of Suomusalmi overnight. !"

"Where are you two going to drive?" Wei Ran continued to ask, and while speaking, poked the other's wound with the barrel of the gun.

"Back to the Soviet Union!" The Soviet Union almost collapsed and replied, "We have been surrounded, and we plan to escape back to the Soviet Union!"

"Trash" Wei Ran muttered, turned around and got on the sleigh, circled around the screaming prisoners who were still tied up, and finally stopped beside the first prisoner.

Also first take off the sack that the other party is still carrying on his shoulders and open it. Wei Ran's eyes light up immediately when he sees the contents inside. There is a camera in a leather case and a green plastic notebook.

He opened the camera leather case and took a look. It was a Feide camera with a brass casing. The counter on it showed that the film inside had only taken a dozen shots.

This camera was originally a copy of the Leica 2, Wei Ran naturally knew how to use it, wrapped it in a leather case and hung it around his neck, rummaged through his backpack, found a box of unopened film and put it in In his pocket, he opened the plastic book that he had thrown aside.But after reading a few pages, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Victor, what's written on it?" Mika, who was on guard on the sled with a submachine gun, couldn't help asking.

Wei Ran shook the plastic book in his hand, "This person is in charge of propaganda work, and here is his work plan, planning how to carry out propaganda work after Oulu is occupied."

"Occupy Oulu?"

Mika and the old hunter Ino laughed out loud, "We will be able to take back the whole of Karelia soon, and they are still delusional about occupying Oulu?"

Wei Ran was stunned when he heard the words, and then shook his head dumbfounded. At this time, I am afraid that only he knows that not only the desire of the Soviets to occupy Oulu has completely failed, but the Finnish wish to take back Karelia is also wishful thinking. Temporarily regained with the help of the Germans, it eventually became part of the Soviet Union.

Throwing the plastic leather book in his hand to the prisoner, Wei Ran repeated his tricks by placing the barrel of the submachine gun on the prisoner's wound and asked the same question.

After getting the same answer as the previous prisoner, Wei Ran went back to the sleigh, waited for the old hunter Yinuo to yell at the reindeer and ran a hundred meters away, and then told the two of them the result of the torture.

"On the frontal battlefield?" The old hunter Ino frowned, then shook the reins again, "Since he is on the frontal battlefield, let's go to the frontal battlefield to find him!"

"Father, do you want to go back to the camp to treat your wound?" Mika asked with the goggle on his face, grabbing the old hunter's shoulder.

"Didn't Victor help me sew it up?" the latter replied impatiently, "And at this time, the people in the camp must have gone to support the battlefield. We can only go to a sauna when we go back."

Mika shook his head helplessly at Chao Weiran, and sat on the sled obediently without saying anything.Under the driving of Ino, two reindeer pulled the sleigh and ran fast in the forest. It didn't take long before they met a group of Finnish soldiers walking through the forest on skis.Among these soldiers, many of them obviously knew the old hunter Ino.

After a few simple exchanges between the two sides, they also roughly understood the current situation. The main force of the 163rd Infantry Division of the Soviet Union was already around the village of Suomus, and it was divided into several pieces by Finland, and they are now being defeated one by one by them.

The news was mixed. The 163rd Infantry Division was doomed to die, but the several breakouts they organized during the period almost broke through the encirclement. Now all available troops have been dispatched to help.But on the other hand, it is completely unknown which encirclement the opponent's teacher is hiding in at this time.

In desperation, the old hunter Ino could only temporarily give up the task of sniping the division commander, manipulated the reindeer sled, and followed the Finnish soldiers to the battlefield that needed support.

As they left the forest, the sound of the guns became closer and closer, and at the same time, they saw several Soviet T-26 tanks lying on the ground after being hit by the artillery.

As the Finnish soldiers on skis rushed to the battlefield located halfway up a mountain, the three of them also took advantage of the terrain to see the besieged Soviet Red Army in the forest below the mountain.

Inuofei bent forward to comfort the two reindeer who were restless under the sound of gunfire, and at the same time kept saying, "You two go to support the battlefield, and I will transport the wounded. After dark, I will come here Pick you up."

"Father Ino, remember to treat the wound again."

Mika said worriedly, and then, together with Wei Ran, he was driven off the sleigh cart by the former holding their own skis, and even threw his sniper rifle to Mika.

"It seems that there is no way to rest during the day." Mika took off the SVT38 rifle on his shoulder and threw it to Wei Ran. He himself held the sniper rifle that belonged to Ino and loaded it. "Victor, survive."

"You too"

Wei Ran hammered his fist on the opponent's chest, took the rifle handed to him, and rushed to a trench at the foot of the mountain.Although he didn't have the skills of the Finns around him, he could hit the target with the sight of the Soviet counter-attack artillery at a distance of several hundred meters.But at least it's okay to support Mika.

And after the two of them jumped into the trench made of watered snow, Wei Ran also saw a bright red flag flying across the battlefield!
