The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 1970 Cowards Are Not Welcomed

Finally it was dusk, and only a hint of red remained in the western sky.

At this moment, a man walked cautiously towards the edge of the mountain top. It was Xu Lang.

  When he got here, Xu Lang not only found that everyone was resting here, he even saw more than a dozen puppet soldiers!

Since he had not been to the front during the day, he had no idea what was going on with these dozen puppet soldiers.

"Are they the prisoners we captured?" Xu Lang asked a district squad soldier beside him.

But the soldier looked up and saw that it was him, but did not answer. Instead, he lowered his head and continued to organize the rifle in his hand. It was a Japanese Type 38 rifle, which must have been captured in the battle.

If it were any other time, if a soldier didn't answer Xu Lang's questions, Xu Lang would definitely reprimand him.

But this time he felt that he was in the wrong, so he didn't ask any more questions but continued walking forward.

At this time, he saw several wounded members of the district team sitting next to a big rock.

The reason why they were called wounded was that they had rags wrapped around their heads, arms, or other parts of their bodies, which were stained with blood. It was obvious that they were injured in the fighting during the day.

And they were not the worst injured. The worst injured was a wounded man lying beside a stone, groaning softly.

"How is he? Is he seriously injured?" Xu Lang walked towards the seriously injured man and asked with concern.

However, when the wounded soldier who was groaning with his eyes closed opened his eyes and saw that it was him, he turned his face away and even clenched his teeth to stop groaning!

At this time, everyone who was still alive in the District Team looked at Xu Lang, but no one paid any attention to him.

So Xu Lang became embarrassed.

Since the soldiers ignored me, I should go find Wang Chuan and Captain Zhang.

Xu Lang continued to walk forward. At this time, he heard someone whispered, "Who is this person?"

Xu Lang did not turn his head to look, but based on the position from which the man was speaking, he could conclude that the person asking the questions must be a puppet soldier.

He couldn't understand why these puppet soldiers and the soldiers of District Squad were so familiar with each other. Where did these puppet soldiers come from? They didn't look like prisoners!

But the puppet soldier asked the question, but still no one answered him.

Xu Lang continued to walk forward. He felt his steps were weak, but he understood more clearly that it was actually his heart that was weak!

Although the soldier of Qu Squad did not answer the puppet soldier's question, in his heart he had already answered for the members of Qu Squad.

  When the puppet soldiers asked who this person was, the answer would definitely be five words: "a coward"!

Xu Lang walked forward again, and this time he came to the deep ditch that he passed when he went up the mountain in the morning.

A long wooden board was laid across the ditch.

As it was already dusk, the ditch, which was originally five or six meters deep, now seemed somewhat unfathomable.

But Xu Lang knew that even though everyone was not talking to him, they were all looking at him.

So he gritted his teeth and walked onto the wooden plank, and finally walked across it, although he quickened his pace when he had only two steps left.

After crossing this ditch, Xu Lang could see the narrow mountain road when he looked up again.

This discovery gave Xu Lang a big shock!

What made him even more panicked was that he saw that there were so many people piled up on that mountain road! No! There were so many corpses piled up on top of each other.

Whether they were Chinese or Japanese, they must have been alive and kicking in the past, but now they have all turned into cold corpses in the afterglow of the sunset! Xu Lang squatted down instinctively, and he felt his heart pounding!

He was not stupid. He could see the bottom of the mountain, so the Japanese devils at the bottom of the mountain must be able to see him, and then they would shoot him dead!

  At this point, Xu Lang felt that he really shouldn’t have come up!

But reason still told him that he had to come up. Otherwise, when it got dark, it would be hard for Shang Zhen and the members of Qu's team to act in unison. What if they broke through and left him alone on the top of the mountain? That would be the most terrifying thing in the world!

Xu Lang squatted on the spot and took several deep breaths before he calmed his violent heartbeat.

Since we can see the bottom of the mountain from here, this is the forefront.

Even when Xu Lang was about to go back, he suddenly heard whispers in front of him.

Could it be that the Japanese devils have come to visit? This thought frightened him again, but then he realized that although he couldn't hear what they were saying, it was clearly the sound of Chinese people talking.

After taking a few deep breaths again, Xu Lang walked forward with his back bent. When he walked around a rock taller than him, he saw several people lying on the rock in front of him.

Xu Lang knew all those people. They should be Shang Zhen, Qian Chuaner, Wang Chuan and Captain Zhang.

Xu Lang didn't dare to speak. He always felt that the Japanese devils were not far away from him, so he could only stand there quietly and watch those people.

Maybe they were discussing how to break out? Xu Lang thought so.

Because it was obvious that if they continued to hold on to Wujiaopo, they would be doomed and the enemies would only gather in greater numbers.

Xu Lang naturally also thought about how to break through.

He doesn't think he is stupid, he can figure it out, breaking through is difficult!

There was only one mountain road to the south, and they knew that if they guarded the top of the mountain, the Japanese would definitely be guarding at the foot of the mountain.

If they tried to break out from the mountain road in the south, as soon as gunshots were heard and the Japanese fired flares, they would have nowhere to hide!

But if you want to break out from any of the east, west or north sides, you can only climb down from the top of the mountain using a rope.

But even with such a long rope, would people be able to reach the bottom of the mountain? What about the wounded? Should they leave the wounded they had just seen to die on the top of the mountain, or wait until the Japanese army attacked and die together with them?

There has been only one road to Huashan since ancient times, and the same is true for Wujiaopo.

Holding on to such terrain is an advantage, but when you want to break through, the advantage turns into a disadvantage.

Xu Lang was just thinking about this when Shang Zhen in front of him suddenly moved. He crawled back and then jumped down from the big rock.

Just as Shang Zhen landed, stood up and looked up, Xu Lang and Shang Zhen's eyes met.

But Shang Zhen clearly saw him but his face showed no expression, as if he didn't see him. He turned around, walked around the big rock and went forward!

Looking at Shang Zhen's back, Xu Lang, who originally felt ashamed, felt another emotion in his heart, and that emotion was called shame!

Only a short while later, suddenly a gunshot rang out!

  When the gunshot was heard, Xu Lang felt his brain go blank at first, and then he suddenly fell to the ground. Because he was so violent, his face almost hit the ground!

At this time, gunshots continued to rang out, including the sharp sounds of Japanese light machine guns and Type 38 rifles.

What is this for? What is this for? Xu Lang was confused.

  Does Shang Zhen want to break out at this time? No, if he wants to break out, Shang Zhen should take the people from Qu Team down the mountain!

Xu Lang was lost in thought, and when he looked up, he saw a red line of bullets flying to the top of the mountain in the approaching dusk. Some bullets even hit the big rock in front of him, making a "clang clang" sound!

Xu Lang could no longer suppress the fear in his heart. He finally turned around and walked back, hunched over, like a prisoner who had done something wrong.

To his surprise, more than ten minutes later, Shang Zhen and his friends came back from the front, and Shang Zhen and Shang Zhen were actually carrying the body of a Japanese soldier!
