When he opened the barrel of compressed biscuits, in addition to taking out two biscuits, he also took out a first aid kit, several cans of non-staple food, and several 56-pound magazines.

Seeing Wei Ran looking at him with a strange expression, Squad Leader Dao took out a lighter, lit a candle and placed it in a crack on the rock wall. With the weak candlelight, he turned over the stone and explained, "Last time I came here to catch my tongue.

They were seized during the war. On the way back, I discovered this cave and hid these things here."

Before he finished speaking, he opened another stone slab, pulled out another biscuit barrel from underneath, and continued to explain, "There used to be a coffin in this hole. It is probably someone's cemetery in the town."

"coffin..."

"It has long been burned as firewood"

While Squad Leader Dao was speaking, he had already opened the second iron bucket, and what was placed inside was a series of Type 58 anti-infantry mines.

Without any command, Wei Ran took over the two mines and placed them on a small piece of platform they passed by when they were going down the mountain.

By the time he returned to the coffin cave, Squad Leader Dao had already lit a few candles in an empty biscuit barrel, and placed a can of stir-fry and assorted meat on top to slowly heat it.

Because of the few candles inside, this small biscuit barrel did not dare to heat the cans directly above it, and it also provided a vital warmth to the two people who were soaked.

Handing the kettle that he had taken out before entering the coffin hole to the squad leader, Wei Ran turned around and spread his raincoat on a bush outside the hole, and made a basin-sized depression in the middle.

Immediately afterwards, he hung the raincoat of the knife squad leader at the entrance of the cave, blocking the light that was not bright in the first place.

It wasn't until everything was over that he sat down next to the biscuit barrel again, tore open a first aid kit, and helped the squad leader rebandage the slightly bleeding wound.

"Take a three-hour break"

The squad leader rolled up his cuffs and said in a low voice while winding up the Dongfeng brand watch, "Then we can climb at least two mountains while it's foggy. Then maybe we can use the command plane to contact Platoon Leader Luo.

Up."

"Squad leader, where did you get this watch?" Wei Ran asked abruptly.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking up at Wei Ran, Squad Leader Dao was silent for a moment and then said, "The leader gave it to me."

"he..."

"Let's have something to eat," Squad Leader Dao said, handing over a piece of compressed biscuit.

Seeing that the other party obviously didn't want to say more, Wei Ran didn't continue to ask. He took the biscuits and put them aside. Then he took off his clothes, shoes and socks, wrung out the water and hung them on the rock wall, and concentrated on cleaning up with a lighter.

There seem to be endless leech on my body.

After a moment of waiting, the box of canned meat-stir-fried assorted vegetables gradually began to steam under the heat of the candle. The two of them picked up the compressed biscuits, tore open the package, dipped the canned soup into their mouths, and took a rare bite.

Hot meal.

After filling his stomach, Wei Ran took off the cup again and poured in all the remaining water in the kettle, while Squad Leader Dao threw two fruit candies into it.

After getting up and walking out of the cave, Wei Ran saw that the raincoat spread on the bushes outside was full of water, so he immediately pressed the kettle in and filled it up, not forgetting to look at the entrance of the cave behind him.

Only after he was sure that no light was exposed, he got back in and placed the kettle filled with water on the biscuit barrel that had become hot to the touch.

"It would be great if that old guy could survive."

The knife squad leader leaned against the rock wall and said abruptly, "If we find an opportunity in the future, we can ask him where the bodies of Zha Yongfang and Xiao Xifeng are."

"If there is a chance in the future, I will look for it with you." Wei Ran replied, "Go to the back hill of Ganzhu Village to look for it."

"Before departure, Platoon Leader Luo told me that as long as this mission is performed well, he will help me win second-class personal merit when I return."

The knife squad leader sighed and said, "With this credit, I might be able to stay. At worst, I can still stay in the cooking class. Now that I go back, I really can't keep him."

"The task of guiding the artillery is completed," Wei Ran said with his head lowered.

“I didn’t take the person back with me.”

The squad leader smiled bitterly, "Two people were lost, one squad leader and one correspondent, and the college student's foot was also injured."

"That's not your fault," Wei Ran said seriously.

"I am the squad leader, and I lead the way."

The squad leader said worriedly, "What's more, we still don't know whether Lu Yao and Hai Dongqing survived."

Hearing this, Wei Ran couldn't help but be startled. Yes, he didn't know if Lu Yao and the others survived. He had almost subconsciously and wishfully thought that Lu Yao and the others were safe, but...

Especially when he thought about the paratrooper knife and paratrooper pot belonging to Lu Yao among the relics of later generations, his inner uneasiness became more and more heavy.

If Lu Yao had not survived, if Hai Dongqing and Li Dazhai who protected Lu Yao had not survived, even if Platoon Leader Luo and others had not survived...

Thinking of this, Wei Ran raised his head and glanced at the worried Squad Leader Dao. If such a worst-case outcome really happened, it would be too cruel for Squad Leader Dao. That would be... it would be even more uncomfortable than killing him.

Subconsciously looking at the direction of the cave entrance that was covered by the raincoat, Wei Ran and Squad Leader Dao said almost at the same time, "You should rest for a while first."

The squad leader Dao smiled and said, "Let's all go to sleep, and don't keep vigil."

"Okay, I'll go out and set up a warning mine."

Wei Ran said, picked up another anti-infantry mine, bent down and walked out of the cave entrance, and placed it in the bushes on the side of the cave entrance.

After getting back into the cave, the two of them lay down against the rock wall, separated by the warm biscuit barrel.

I don't know how long it took, but the tired Wei Ran was the first to fall asleep under the influence of sleep. On the other side, Squad Leader Dao slowly sat up, leaning against the rock wall with a submachine gun in his arms, listening intently outside the cave.

movement.

When Wei Ran was woken up by Squad Leader Dao again, he noticed that there was a warm kettle in his arms. The kettle's sleeve was also wrapped with a green towel.

Not only that, a pair of dried socks and his Jiefang shoes were propped up on wooden sticks around the biscuit barrel.

“Have something to eat and get ready to go.”

While Captain Dao greeted Wei Ran, he also handed over a piece of compressed biscuit and half a bunch of not-too-large bananas.

"Where did you get it?" Wei Ran said as he broke open a banana and took a bite.

"There is a banana forest in the valley, and on the other side of the banana forest is an almost deserted village."

As the squad leader said, he picked up the can skin on the biscuit barrel, poured out the water inside, and shook out a few unknown bird eggs that were about the size of his thumb.

"You haven't slept all night?" Wei Ran continued to ask.

"Sleeping." Squad Leader Dao smiled, "I woke up an hour earlier than you. Come and eat quickly. We will set off after eating."

"You eat too," Wei Ran said, dividing out half of the eggs and pushing them to the squad leader.

The latter did not refuse Wei Ran's kindness. He picked up a bird egg that was smaller than a quail egg and threw it into his mouth without even peeling the skin.

After finishing breakfast in two or three, they each took a few extra mines, put uneaten bananas and raincoats into their backpacks, put on their bamboo hats, and set off.

"Next is the second mountain"

The knife squad leader pointed straight ahead and said, "You can go up the mountain through the banana forest and then through the village. However, this mountain is not easy to climb. It is high and steep. The good thing is that when we climb to the top of the mountain, we can try to use the command

Please contact Platoon Commander Luo."

Having said this, the knife squad leader paused and added worriedly, "If they are still alive."

"They must be alive"

Wei Ran muttered as if he was brainwashing himself, and followed Squad Leader Dao out of the jungle in the thick fog. After passing through a banana forest, he lay down on the edge of a field.

The sky was slightly bright at this time, but it was early five o'clock in the morning. Not far ahead, there was a small village. Although Wei Ran couldn't see exactly how many buildings and people there were in the village, he could hear the noise coming from the village.

The sound of buffalo coming and the barking of dogs.

"No matter who you meet later, don't rush to draw your gun, it's time to say hello." Said the squad leader, he had already stood up and pressed the bamboo hat, then took off his liberation shoes and socks and handed them to Wei Ran, waiting for him to hand them over.

When putting it into the backpack, I rolled up my trouser legs again.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When the other party followed suit and took over the semi-automatic rifle seized from the village chief last night, Wei Ran took off his shoes in the same way.

He put on his socks, lowered his bamboo hat a little, and followed the other person down the field ridge, through the paddy fields planted with seedlings, and onto a field path close to the village.

Along this field path, the two of them speeded up their pace slightly and walked towards another mountain a few hundred meters away. At the same time, they each paid attention to their surroundings.

However, just when they were still two or three hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain, a car with a red cross printed on it also drove from a distance and slowly drove towards the village. Not only that, behind the ambulance

Behind, there was a truck.

"Don't panic, salute after me later."

The squad leader Dao reminded him in a low voice, then walked calmly to the roadside and stood on the field ridge.

When the ambulance almost passed in front of the two of them, the squad leader also shouted "Salute!" in Vietnamese.

Before he finished speaking, he and Wei Ran, who was standing next to him, raised their hands and saluted in unison. The ambulance also honked its horn in response and drove towards the village without stopping.

While the two of them were waiting, the truck behind them also honked its horn and drove past the two people who were saluting.

But what they didn't expect was that behind the truck, in the thick fog, a third vehicle drove over, a 151 Jeep produced in the United States.

In addition to the driver and the co-pilot, who were holding the American M60 machine gun, there was also an officer sitting in the back seat with a cigarette in his mouth. Next to the officer, there was another man who looked about sixteen years old.

A seven-year-old beautiful girl with most of her body in the former's arms.

"Pause"

Just as the car was about to drive past the two saluting people, the officer holding the girl in his arms signaled the driver to stop.

"What are you doing?" the officer asked in Vietnamese.

"Report!"
