Strongest Worker

"This minefield is too sparsely buried and the geographical location is wrong. It should not be used to deal with the Longxi army." Deng Shi shouted slowly as he walked, "But the one who buried the mine is an expert. Look... This is the mountain road. He buried the mine on the foothold of the mountain. As long as 90% of the people take this road, they will step here. However, this little trick will deceive those fledgling fools. If they change their old hands, they can't detect it at all. They can see the clue at a glance."

Zhong Ruoxi whispered, "I really should ask you to give lectures to the Longxi army and give urgent training to those engineers."

Master Deng pulled the corners of his mouth: "the female soldiers are OK, but the men are not interested."

Wen Yang looked puzzled: "do you think these mines are used to deal with the Longxi army? What are they buried here for? Can they be used to fry wild boars?"

"You don't understand that," said master Deng proudly. "The political environment in Longxi is complex. Many private private armed forces will take the initiative to attack the army because of smoke, soil, arms or just religious beliefs. If I expected it to be right, this line of defense is mainly prepared for them."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden explosion from the mountains and forests in the distance.

"Shit." master Deng's body suddenly stiffened, "won't it really kill a wild boar?"

"It's a big trouble now." Yang Xun frowned. "There's a mine detonating in front, which will surely lead the Xilong army. We have to change our direction and go another way."

"It's really unlucky. Which bastard wants to pull me on the back when he doesn't want to live." master Deng scolded angrily, and then turned around, "withdraw."

"Wait a minute." Zhong Ruoxi blinked her beautiful eyes and suddenly said, "according to the original plan, Huang Jingyuan will arrange Jiang Demao to go deep into Xilong to meet us."

"You mean..." master Deng suddenly stared round his eyes and immediately shook his head. "It's impossible. Didn't the original plan say they would arrive at shaping? How could they go so far?"

Zhong Ruoxi hesitated and whispered, "they will continue to go deep."

After pondering for a moment, master Deng nodded and put Zhong Ruoxi down: "well, you wait here. I'll go ahead and have a look. Stay here honestly and don't walk around at will."

Master Deng told him again. Then he dived into the depths of the woods and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After sneaking forward for a while, he gradually heard the sound of gunfire between the two sides. Division Deng was convinced that there was indeed an armed force that broke into the defense area of the seventh infantry brigade. It would not be a wild boar that had just been killed.

Slowing down his speed, Deng Shi slowly approached the battlefield, then flashed out from the shadow behind the tree, fell a sentinel soldier to the ground, and then drew a dagger from the soldier's waist and put it on his neck.

"Which part do you belong to?" master Deng asked coldly. "You just need to answer my question. Don't talk too much."

The soldier looked up and down at division Deng, then shouted in Mandarin, "come on! Come on!"

"Shit!" master Deng's cheeks turned blue. He pulled the soldier up and put him in front of him as a shield. Looking at the more than a dozen soldiers rushing over, he looked helpless, "it's really you fools..."

"Commander! The South and North are surrounded! We can't rush out!"

"Shit!" the middle-aged man threw his hat to the ground and grabbed the light machine gun around him. "These animals don't give me a way to live, they fight with them!"

"Captain, we have to meet director Zhong and brigade commander Shi. We can't work hard here."

"Why don't you go west."

"Fart!" the middle-aged man glared, "there is a minefield behind. If you withdraw, you can't tell who will answer who!"

"Commander! The Rockets are running out! There is no ammunition supply, and the South can't hold it down."

The middle-aged man looked down at the luminous watch and said angrily, "a group of bastards! It's only been playing for dozens of minutes and can't hold up!"

At this time, a company commander under the middle-aged man hurried over: "commander, our people caught a spy behind, which was touched from the minefield."

"Really?" the middle-aged man flushed a happy face and quickly waved, "come and ask if we have a good Xilong language here? Call me right away!"

After a while, master Deng was brought to the middle-aged man. However, the dagger he held in his hand was still against the young sentry's neck.

The middle-aged man glanced, and his whole face was black: "shit! You little bastards said you caught a spy! Why does he still have a knife in his hand?"

The captain of the company said carefully, "Captain, we did catch him, but he still had a hostage in his hand..."

"Come on, stop talking nonsense." the middle-aged man pulled aside the soldier who temporarily acted as an interpreter. "Tell this bastard how he came here. As long as he can take us out, let him go. Translate quickly."

The soldier kowtowed his words to the middle-aged man. Master Deng raised his eyebrows and then returned to a Xilong language, which was very short and refined.

The middle-aged man was impatient: "what did he say?"

The interpreter took a hard blow from the corner of his mouth: "he said... He said that the Japanese commander your mother..."

"I'm his ancestor!" the middle-aged man suddenly got angry, pulled out his pistol and glared at master Deng fiercely: "little bastard, do you believe I shot you?"

"Well, I don't have time to make jokes with you." master Deng turned his eyes, took the dagger and pushed the sentry aside. "Are you Jiang Demao, head of 361 regiment?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and immediately habitually nodded: "yes."

"My name is Deng Shi. I'm a member of Shenjing plan action team. Take your people with me. Director Zhong Ruoxi is waiting for you not far from here."

Master Deng said, turned and left. Jiang demiao followed closely and asked warily, "wait a minute! Why should I trust you?"

"Believe it or not." master Deng shouted angrily, "Huang Jingyuan sent you to meet us, but asked me to save you. It's really... Hum, I'm so angry."

Master Deng turned and left, but no one dared to stop him.

"Captain, shall we go?"

Jiang demiao hesitated and quickly waved his hand: "let the brothers withdraw and go with him."

After the command, Jiang demiao quickly followed up with Deng Shi: "brother! Brother, please slow down. My people haven't come down yet. I'm sorry just now. There was a misunderstanding. I apologize to you."

"Let your people follow me." master Deng said in a deep voice, "wherever I go, you go."

Jiang demiao looked at the minefield in front of him: "are you sure?"

Master Deng didn't speak, just nodded, and then walked in. Jiang demiao, together with his soldiers, formed a snake like team behind Deng division, carefully following him.

"Count it and I'll see how many people are left." Jiang demiao turned and said.

"One."

"Two."

“…”

From the head of the team to the end of the team, and from the end of the team to the head of the team. Finally, the company commander behind Jiang demiao whispered, "one hundred and sixty-eight."

Jiang demiao's face changed: "there are only 84 brothers left. When I left Longxi, I took 200 people and hit here all the way from shaping. There are only 84 left."

"Is there anyone else?" master Deng asked in a low voice.

Jiang demiao replied, "there are two teams in another direction. In addition, commander Huang has also arrived in Xilong. Now he should have arrived at the headquarters of the third infantry division. After seeing director Zhong, we will take a radio station with us and contact commander Huang quickly."

"Huang Jingyuan really has the courage to come to Xilong?"

Jiang Demao seemed to be sarcastic when listening to Deng Shi's words. He replied unhappily: "if commander Huang doesn't come, we can't get out even if we pick you up."

"I understand this truth. I don't need you to remind me." master Deng calmed down and said, "what we lack most now is medicine, and the rest is still second."

"Someone is injured?" Jiang Demao asked hurriedly, "is it brigade commander Shi? How is brigade commander Shi?"

Master Deng's body stagnated slightly and said in a low voice, "why do you care so much about Shi Yinghui?"

Jiang Demao's voice is loud: "Brigade commander Shi is my old leader. I was a soldier subordinate to the guard brigade at the beginning. Later, after the great reform of the military system in Longxi, I was transferred to the 49th army with a group of brothers. Last time you left, brigade commander Shi knew that I was the receiving force for this mission. Before leaving, he patted me on the shoulder and said that he would have a few drinks with his brothers when he came back."

Master Deng's face sank and remained silent for a long time before he whispered, "you can't drink this wine. Shi Yinghui is dead."

"What!" Jiang demiao jumped up directly from the ground, his eyes scarlet, and stretched out his hand to pull master Deng's back collar, "tell me again!"

"Little special, give me this!" master Deng scolded, turned and slapped Jiang Demao, and threw his whole face on the wet grass.

The troops behind stopped. Jiang demiao raised half his body, raised his head and stared pitifully at Deng Shi: "brigade commander Shi... Really sacrificed?"

"You don't have the right to know the specific details." master Deng said faintly, "the only thing I can tell you is that Shi Yinghui's hand was seriously injured and left early this morning. We buried him under a hillside on the West Bank of the Yao River."

"Brigadier Shi is dead... Why don't you bring him back? He has to be buried in our own land."

"Dead is dead. Don't be too pretentious. You've lost so many soldiers. Have you ever thought of where they are buried?" master Deng turned and looked back. "Get up and continue on the way. Our time is wrong. Don't waste time here."
