Indiana Jones

Chapter 529 Bloody Fight (09)

Si Xuanyi hasn't had time to calculate how much casualties have been paid for this mission so far. In fact, he also knows how heavy the casualties are, but this is not a simple understanding. After all, it is a lot of lives , It is not a matter of detailed statistics. After all, human life is not a number, not simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Whether he wants to or not, he has to face the result that he does not want to face.

In fact, they are still unable to accurately count the losses this time, and the known death toll has exceeded [-]%, but this does not mean that they still have some manpower, because there are still a large number of people who can only be defined as missing and killed , these people are scattered in this forest, whether they are alive or dead can't be determined, so there are only seven or eight people around them now, and almost everyone except Lin Feng is injured to varying degrees, and the few who can walk are few. Most of them need to be lifted to walk.

"Those missing people have little hope of surviving." Lin Feng said straightforwardly, "We killed about fifty or sixty devils and puppet soldiers at such a high price. Of course, these should be mainly attributed to that damn magic circle. We It's not easy to go out there. There must be devils in the woods around the stone city. We have to be prepared for encounters. Even if we don't run into these devils, they are no threat to this place. These devils It will be digested by this forest soon."

"There are also our own people in this forest." Si Xuanyi said.

"Yeah, but we don't have the ability to look for it." Lin Feng said frankly, although it is not pleasant, it is a fact. It is difficult for them to get out of this forest alive in their current state, let alone find someone.

"Although we have suffered a lot of casualties, and although all of us are tired and seriously injured, we still have to get out as soon as possible..." Li Siming said, "We have only completed half of the matter, and there are still a group of devils outside, although there are not many , but still a threat."

Indeed, although they have reached the current point, their task has not been completed. They just stopped the recent devils, and there are still some in the camp outside. That is to say, they have paid such a high price, and they are only half done. It's just a mission, no one knows how to deal with the enemies outside, but they know better, if they can't get rid of the devils in the camp outside, then everything they have done now will be in vain, so there are more difficult tasks ahead Waiting for them, this is not a question of whether they are willing to face it, but something they must do.

"With our current state, let alone fighting those enemies, it will not be easy to survive." Zhao Chenggong always wanted to say whatever he said.

"Let's think about this issue after we go out. Now we have to find a way to leave. The road is not safe. We still have a large number of wounded to be transported out..." Si Xuanyi is very clear that the problem in front of them has been regarded as such It is easy to solve the problem, but it is difficult for them to take care of themselves.How to get out of so many wounded who cannot move on their own?
Not long after Liu Xiaotian came back, he made a detailed casualty report to Si Xuanyi, and put forward some suggestions for evacuation, but none of them could really solve the difficulties they were facing now, but they were considered feasible solutions. They set off as soon as the daylight dawned, and they had to pass through the forest before noon. They didn't want to face the white mist bug again, and they had no ability to fight against it.

Although it was still early in the morning, they basically had no time to rest. They had to make preparations before leaving tomorrow morning. The number of stretchers and brackets needed by so many wounded people was enough for them to be busy for a while. After all, there were not many people who could move now. There are even fewer who can work. It can be said that they are really time-crunched and task-heavy.

Fang Yuanshan and the woodcutter are not in good condition, the patriarch is somewhat better than when he was in the cave, but being unconscious all the time can be regarded as hanging by a thread.

This experience hit Xiaolu very hard. Yin Lu died, and the patriarch was seriously injured. The only ones who came in were her and the other three wounded. She was the only one who could walk. It's hard to say whether the few people other than her will survive in the end. All of a sudden, almost all the young and middle-aged people are folded here. Does their race, which lives in the mountains, really have a future?

After making a series of preparations, it was almost dawn. They lit torches, took the wounded and began to trek through the woods to the entrance at the other end. Nothing happened along the way. They didn't meet any ghosts who got lost here, and they didn't see a single person of their own. It's just that they walked very hard along the way, but their hearts were also extremely heavy.

There are too many wounded, most of them need to be carried, and there are very few people who can walk, so this is definitely a big challenge for the few of them, and it takes more physical strength to transport them repeatedly. these wounded.

Xiaolu just lit the fire silently, without saying a word, she hasn't said a word since she woke up, although she looks like an adult, although she looks young and mature, she is still a child after all, and she can't bear such a situation. Si Xuanyi once comforted her. Now she may be the most important person besides the patriarch. The burden of revitalizing the race will eventually be on her shoulders. No matter what difficulties you encounter, you must persevere, but this burden Can she really afford it?
After crossing the woods, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost noon, and their physical exertion was too great. They had to stop and rest. Although they didn't know what would happen later, they finally passed the most dangerous level. They were just checking When the wounded were wounded, it was found that two of them were already dying. After a lot of effort, some of them couldn't hold on.

"We can't save everyone..." Si Xuanyi looked helplessly at the two wounded who were no longer able to survive, and a sense of powerlessness struck his heart.

"Just do your best..." Li Siming patted him on the shoulder, "There are some things we can't influence or control."

"If you can't go back this time..." Si Xuanyi shook his head halfway through speaking and did not continue.

"Why do you have the idea of ​​giving up?" Li Siming felt a little strange.

"No..." Si Xuanyi denied, "It's just a sigh; take a breath and continue walking. Damn, even if you die, you can't die in this ghostly place."

After a short rest, they set off again. To everyone's surprise, they found devils inside not long after they returned to the entrance. People have guns, and this battle is not easy. Although there are only three devils on the opposite side, they are stuck in a key position, and they cannot get through.

"Damn it..." Zhao Chenggong had nothing to do but curse, the gun in his hand had only two bullets left.

"I went over...Lin Feng observed the environment...Everyone is waiting here for my signal."

"Be careful..." Si Xuanyi said, at this point, they could only rely on Lin Feng's abnormal performance.

"With this little stuff, what are we going to use to fight those little devils?" Zhao Chenggong complained recklessly. Although it was very unpleasant, it was indeed a difficult problem for them.

"Why do you think about this? Go out and talk about it first." Li Siming didn't like this kind of words that shake the morale of the army, but he also knew that what Zhao Chenggong said was right, but if they couldn't even get out now, it would be a bit self-deprecating to worry about those It's too early.

"I hope the ammunition we left outside is still there." Si Xuanyi said, "Although it is not much, it is at least ten thousand times better than what we have now."

Now they really have run out of ammunition and food. The average combatant has less than five rounds of ammunition. There are no grenades or explosives, but a bayonet can be done. It is impossible for this little devil to have a gun and bullets to fight with them Fight bayonet.

"Although there are not many, it is more than enough to equip the few of us." Liu Xiaotian said, "Actually, on the way back, we just searched and killed the devils with a lot of ammunition. We basically didn't collect ammunition when we had enough ammunition before."

"Let's kill the three devils on the opposite side first. Anyway, our team has no combat capability now. At most, we are fleeing. These wounded people will probably have to recuperate in Xiaolu's village for a while." Si Xuanyi said.

"If we can't do anything else, we don't have any problem taking care of her." Xiaolu finally spoke. The girl had been silent for too long.

"Hmm..." Si Xuanyi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that this little girl should be fine, "Don't worry, after a period of cultivation, your group will become more vibrant."

"I know... we are an immortal race for a thousand years, and it is not so easy to perish." Xiaolu said very firmly.

Suddenly there were two gunshots from the opposite side, followed by another silence, and after a while, Lin Feng called them over there.

"Let's go..." Si Xuanyi waved his hand and ran over first. After arriving, he found that Lin Feng had already killed three devils. It turned out that these three devils were all wounded, and two of them could not walk any longer and could only lie down. Shooting here, no wonder they are stuck here and can't go, it seems that they can't go.

"They don't use much medicine, but it is also a good supplement for us." Lin Feng has already confiscated the ammunition of the three devils, there are about 30 rounds of bullets and two grenades, which is much better than the one they shot. , although it is not sufficient, it can be regarded as supplementing their consumption.

"Let's go..." Si Xuanyi looked at the dark cave. Although the road ahead wasn't too long, it would still take quite a long time. After all, they had to transport so many wounded now.

"You should leave the one who can move for us to be a coolie." Zhao Chenggong said while wiping the sweat from his brow, "Killing these bastards is an advantage for them."

"Let's forget it, kill it and worry about it." Si Xuanyi did not agree with the bad idea of ​​success.

In fact, it didn't take long for them to arrive at the mass burial cemetery full of holes. Xiaolu felt uncomfortable. Facing so many ancestors, she really felt ashamed. Now it is certain that their race is growing The irreversible posture is declining, and if she can get enough time to recuperate, she may be able to thrive again, but now she sees no hope.

On the way back, they found a wounded man who was unconscious. This kid was lucky to meet them. After checking, they found that the man was not seriously injured, but he hit his head and seemed to have fallen from a high place.

"I really hope to see that more people are still alive." Si Xuanyi said a little lonely. This time, dozens of people came back and forth, but now they are the only ones who can confirm that they are still alive. I always feel sorry for these people. People, although it was too commonplace in the war years, after all, he was the one who brought these people here, and it is impossible not to care about dozens of lives.

"I don't know if Fengshi is still under our control. If it is really occupied by devils, or if Fengshi is put down, we have to find another way." What Li Siming is really worried about is whether they can get out of here. After all, there were still many enemies scattered here when they came in. Although there were people from the Yin Lu tribe staying behind along the way, there was no other way to deal with those little devils and these natives except to fight with their lives.

Everyone went out in such a state of anxiety. They didn't know what was waiting for them ahead, whether this road could be passed through, and how many devils they would face in the end. How unfavorable this situation is to me.

The front is where Feng Shi is, and they didn't approach rashly, after all, that position is easy to defend and not easy to attack, so it's better not to be too blind before finding out who occupies that position.

"Let me go first!" For this kind of thing, Lin Feng has always taken the initiative, because no one in this team is more suitable than him.

"In front of him, I always feel like a child who can't keep up with adults." Ye Feng said later.

"Actually, we are all the same, we will never be able to keep up with his rhythm." Si Xuanyi said.

"I hope the front is still under our control." Xiaolu said silently, this place is of great significance to her race, but after going through so many things, it no longer has the sense of mystery it had before, but After all, this is still a holy place in their minds, but although it has been discounted, it is very difficult to completely change this deep-rooted concept.

Soon, Lin Feng greeted them from the front. There seemed to be no danger there, and everyone was relieved, but after they rushed over, I realized that something was wrong here, although it was not too different from when they came in There is a difference, but there is nothing here. The natives who stayed behind have disappeared. The devils they killed before are still there. On these devils, they searched for some ammunition and continued to move forward. It's getting closer, but their moods are extremely complicated, even a little apprehensive, no one knows what is waiting for them outside...
