Chapter 1764 A quiet snowy night(2/3)
"How is the situation?" Wei Ran asked in a low voice.
"Although the wound is not deep, it seems to have damaged the blood vessels. We must send him out as soon as possible."
The answer to the question was Hanica, who spoke Spanish. "After we were captured, we only had two rolls of gauze left on our body, and he needed to be sent to the hospital as soon as possible."
"Which medical station are you from?" Clermont asked in French as he endured the pain in the wound.
“The medical station next to the train station”
Amani replied, "Franco's troops occupied it, and we were caught when we evacuated it."
Hearing this, Clermont was stunned for a moment, and then after a half-minute silence, he asked carefully, "You... do you have a French girl named Esthere? She...she is..."
"She is our head nurse," Amani immediately said, "Do you know our head nurse? Are you French too?"
"Is she okay?" Clermont asked almost subconsciously.
However, after asking this question, Amani lowered his head and continued to bandage Clermont's wound.
"Answer me quickly, she..."
"She's dead"
Hanica said in a difficult French language that was not very skilled, "Nurse Esdel, died, and was blown to death by the plane in order to protect the wounded."
"You and the head nurse..." Amani, who had already shed tears, asked carefully.
"She is my fiancée"
Clermont said with tears as he hit the broken wall behind him with the back of his head, "My fiancée, Esdel is my fiancée. I..."
"Keep quiet"
Wei Ran reminded softly that he also came to the window again and looked at the street outside with Yu Yanlin who was guarding here.
"Why are you here?" Wei Ran asked in his native tongue in a low voice.
"I'm responsible for the bullfighting ring not far from here"
Yu Yanlin whispered, "There is also captured. I got separated from everyone when I retreated, and then I heard the gunshots here."
Bullfighting ring? Train station?
Wei Ran was stunned for a moment, and looked up and felt the coldness that seemed to fall on his face in the night sky, which seemed to be snowflakes...
He already knew where this place was, and even knew the exact time.
This is the bloodiest battle in the Battle of Teruel, the Spanish Civil War. At the same time, it is likely to be the last day of 1937.
In other words, Yu Yanlin actually persisted in the Spanish Civil War for more than a year! He is already a veteran, experienced veteran!
This is undoubtedly good news, but it is also an embarrassing time point. Clermont's injury was too bad.
According to historical records, there will be a 4-day blizzard next.
If they can't escape tonight, they will be trapped here and may even be frozen to death.
But if they do not escape, eight days later, the Republican Army will briefly recover Teruel and achieve a temporary victory.
But at this time, Clermont, let alone 8 days, even if it was 8 hours, was enough for him to dry up his blood in his body when he was short of medical treatment.
"We're going to get out of here as soon as possible," Amani, who had finished bandaging, whispered.
"You go," Clermont whispered, "Just take away the mailing bag and let me stay here."
"We can't do it"
Wei Ran said as he took out the still hot lunch box from his bag, "I believe that if I or Louis are injured, you can't throw us down."
“But we can’t eat here either…”
"Don't be anxious"
Wei Ran opened the lunch box and took a look, pulled some food similar to the rice pouring in the lid with a spoon poked inside and handed it to Amani, "Have you eaten? Have you eaten something first."
"Sir, his situation..."
"I know"
Wei Ran explained before Hanica finished speaking, "Then you have to wait. Now they are searching for us. It is too easy to find out when going out at this time. We have to wait for at least half an hour to be safer. Hanica, Amani, can he last half an hour more?"
"No big problem," Amani replied, "but we..."
"How far is this place from the next medical station? A safe medical station." Wei Ran asked Yu Yanlin.
"It takes at least half an hour to walk," Yu Yanlin replied.
"Then it's time to eat something, too."
Wei Ran said, and had already opened the second and third lunch boxes and opened them one by one and went out, "We will set off when we have enough food, and we will set off faster."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and could only pick up the lunch box and fill the food in their mouths with the fastest speed.
This meal was necessary, not only because Wei Ran was so hungry that his eyes turned black, not only because the pursuers were busy outside, but also because the weather was too cold, they needed to warm up first.
In the darkness, each cleared the lunch box. Wei Ran searched on the third floor and used two bamboo poles that seemed to be used to dry clothes to make a simple stretcher.
Then he flipped through the canvas bag and saw that there were no more letters left inside, so he took them out and stuffed them all into the horse-haired bag he was carrying.
"Amani, Hanica, you will be responsible for carrying Clermont next."
Wei Ran whispered, "Louis and I will walk in front of the team to protect you."
"No problem." The two of them looked at the girl who was probably only 20 years old and nodded firmly.
"I'll go..."
"You go behind"
Wei Ran said unquestionably, "Try to keep quiet and don't shoot."
"Okay," Yu Yanlin responded, and tightened the backpack strap he was carrying.
After returning to the stairs and cleaning up the grenades that were previously arranged on the first floor as a warning, Wei Ran and the people behind him continued to carefully shuttle through the ruined building wreckage.
After a while, the snowflakes falling from the night sky above my head became stronger and stronger, and the wind became more and more violent, so that from time to time, broken bricks would blow down from the roof, smashing everywhere, making huge and abrupt movements.
This is good news. Whether it is howling cold wind or falling bricks, they all cover up the occasional movements they make when they move forward in the dark, except to be careful of being hit by the falling heavy objects.
After such a dangerous journey, they also stopped in the wreckage of a building next to a slightly spacious intersection.
"We're going to keep moving forward"
Yu Yanlin came up from behind and whispered, "You have to pass two intersections in a row."
"I'll go first"
Wei Ran whispered, "If there is a fire exchange, don't move, I will lead the enemy away."
After a little silence, Yu Yanlin nodded, "Okay".
Without delaying the time, Wei Ran stepped away from the shadow of the building. He even walked through the garbage-filled street with a little swagger, and finally walked into the shadow of the mobile building ruins across the road.
A moment later, Amani and Hanica also carried the stretcher and ran over under Yu Yanlin's escort.
If everyone passed through the first intersection smoothly, they would not dare to rest. Under Wei Ran's leadership, they would continue to walk carefully through the ruins in the dark.
God knows how tragic this battle was. Along the way, Wei Ran has never seen a complete room or even a complete door and window.
On the contrary, corpses that were already frozen were almost everywhere. He even saw an old man who was hanging by himself or someone else on the door frame.
When the wind blows through the hall, the old corpse will swing, and unconsciously knocks on the door that is also shaking back and forth by the wind.
Carefully passing through this special corpse, Wei Ran continued to move forward with the people behind him.
However, before all of them left the room, an inconspicuous spark fell from the broken window by the wind and finally threw it into the room.
Momenting behind him, Wei Ran carefully walked to the Mars that was still in red light and bent down and picked it up.
This is the butt of a cigar, and the unlit one still had obvious tooth marks remaining.
Obviously, there were people above my head, and they could only be Franco's, otherwise they wouldn't have to leave so carefully.
After throwing away the cigarette butt and looking around, Wei Ran walked to the stairs not far away, pulled out a grenade pull-up, and stuck it on the steps with an inconspicuous wooden board.
Waving his hand to continue moving forward, Wei Ran led them to the next room, another room.
However, before they could leave the dilapidated building, they had to stop again.
At this time, there was a bonfire in the next room, and they could even hear loud snoring from inside.
Carefully lift the broken quilt hanging on the door frame leading to the next room, and Wei Ran could clearly see that in the next room, there was a fireplace with a bonfire burning diagonally.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Although the window facing the street has been sealed by sandbags and wooden boards, a shooting hole is left. Behind the shooting hole is a Maxim machine gun.
At this time, there were three people lying on the floor by the fireplace. In addition, there was another person sitting on a not-so-large stool, baking the fire while holding a book and reading it seriously.
At his feet, there was even a submachine gun.
He changed his gaze and looked at the other end of the room, which was supported by the bed board and wooden poles, blocking most of the defects. Wei Ran gently put down the submachine gun, and then looked at Yu Yanlin and others who were waiting in the same room as him.
Dodging to the side of the door frame, Wei Ran squatted down carefully, grabbed the corner of the broken quilt that acted as the door curtain and waited patiently.
"call!"
