Chapter 833 Crash(1/2)
In the rain that almost obscured the sight, an exhausted team hid directly under a tall and lush banyan tree after barely leaving the depression next to the river.
"Just, let's just go here." Zhou Guochang begged, beating, "I can't walk anymore, I can't walk anymore."
"Then let's go here." Squad Leader Liang responded with a hoarse voice, helping the little monk Sehao remove the bamboo basket and other items on the donkey.
At the same time, Wei Ran and Qin Shouzheng also moved the bamboo baskets on the other donkey and put them together with their own backpacks.
"I'll cut some banana leaves"
Wei Ranqiang took out his hijab with his spirit, walked a few steps away, and cut a large hug of wide and thick banana leaves.
He distributed a large part of it to everyone and spread it on the ground. With the help of Squad Leader Liang, Wei Ran emptied two backpacks, put the canvas bucket in, and then made an oversized funnel with banana leaves and placed it on it.
Within five minutes of release of such a combination, the canvas bucket was filled with rain.
They lined up to fill their kettles with fresh rain, and then placed the canvas buckets that were filled with water next to the two donkeys. However, everyone had no intention of eating. They barely built a simple shack with raincoats and tarp cloth, and sprinkled a layer of anti-leeches powder and couldn't wait to lie down. Soon, they started to snore loudly.
In contrast, the young monk had a passionate job asking Wei Ran to borrow soap, took off all his clothes, and carefully scrubbed his body in the rain, as well as the British uniform that was not very suitable for him.
After several failed attempts to ignite, Squad Leader Liang silently pulled out the box gun at his waist, leaned against the thick tree trunk, staring at the gradually rising river channel in the distance.
In his sleep, Wei Ran returned to the river with floating corpses again, and once again saw the corpses of the expeditionary soldiers who were soaked and swollen, saw the rotten corpses by the stream, and even saw the bombs thrown from above the heads, and heard the rumbling noise of the Japanese bombers flying by at a low altitude!
"Ah--!" Wei Ran turned over and started to shout, and there was a matte titanium pistol in his hand.
I looked around and saw that in the dark night, the only thing I could see was the kerosene lamp hanging on the trunk of a tree, and the squad leader Liang who was holding a box gun under the kerosene lamp. The only thing I could hear was the sound of raucous rain.
"Let's sleep for a while," Wei Ran stood up and said softly, "I'll stare at you in the second half of the night."
"good"
Squad Leader Liang responded hoarsely, and while inserting the weapon in his hand into the gun box, he started to snore.
After taking off the oil lamp and putting it next to him, Wei Ran took off the smelly and damp clothes on his body, cleaned up the leeches that had crawled to various parts of his body at some time. Then he picked up the soap that the little monk gave him, walked out of the shade of the tree, rubbed his body in the rain, and the stench of corpse on his clothes was lingering.
After such wind and rain, he woke up completely. Unfortunately, the only thing he could do in this jungle night with lightning and thunder and wind and rain was just to chew jerky under the kerosene lamp, looking at the night sky where lightning was constantly lit up, from time to time, he would drive away the leeches that fell from the banyan tree above his head and prepared to eat.
I don't know how long it took, but the two donkeys who were also sleeping were awake in no particular order, and then they began to roar anxiously, and a faint green light flashed in the jungle not far from them.
Seeing this, Wei Ran picked up the submachine gun placed in the basket without waiting for his feet, and pointed the trigger in the direction where the two green light disappeared!
"Da da da da!"
The crisp and dense gunfire was particularly harsh in the rainy night. In the distance, there was also a low roar and a wail after being interrupted by the gunfire.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Shouzheng was the first to wake up. While getting up, he had already grabbed the submachine gun and completed the action of retiring the order. Then, without waiting for Wei Ran to answer, Squad Leader Liang and others were also awakened one after another.
"It's okay, keep sleeping." Wei Ran put away his submachine gun, "Maybe some wild beast has been driven away."
Hearing this, Qin Shouzheng was the first to put down his weapon and lay back on his seat. But then, he stood up, took out his soap, and said while walking out, "You guys can keep resting for a while. I'll be on the night side and wash your body by the way."
"I want to wash it too." After smelling the smell on his body, Zhou Guochang also got up and asked Wei Ran to borrow the soap.
Seeing this, Wei Ran simply lay down again. However, before he could close his eyes, he could vaguely hear the unique noise of the plane propeller in the rain!
Subconsciously, he turned over and got up again. Wei Ran pulled the oil lamp over and raised the glass lampshade and blew it hard.
Immediately afterwards, Squad Leader Liang, the little monk Sehao, as well as Qin Shouzheng and Zhou Guochang, who had already lie down again, also ran to the concentrated bamboo baskets as soon as possible, and were in a hurry to put them on the donkey's back.
"Wait first!" Wei Ran shouted first, "It seems that something is wrong, there is something wrong with that plane!"
"If you have any questions, leave here first!" Squad leader Liang responded hoarsely.
"No, there seems to be something wrong with that plane."
Wei Ran's tone relaxed a lot, "Its engine seems to be on fire. If you look closely, the fire will be very clear."
Before he finished speaking, a flash of lightning flashed in the night sky. With the passing of light, everyone who looked up also saw clearly that there seemed to be a vague fire on the wings of the low-altitude plane!
In the blink of an eye, the roar of the plane had already overwhelmed the white noise of the heavy rain. But before everyone could say anything, the wings on one side of the plane in the night sky turned into a fireball! Immediately afterwards, the plane, which was originally flying over the treetops, began to deviate, and was blocked by the dense jungle.

Just ten seconds apart, a deafening explosion came from a distance with the tremors on the ground. The two donkeys were excited and kept squeaking, and their mouths were also screaming.
"boom!"
Another explosion came from the jungle in the distance. Even through the dense jungle, they saw the night sky stained with flames!
Everyone shivered, looked at each other, and shouted at each other, "Go and see! Catch the Japanese!"
Before they finished speaking, everyone immediately took action, lit the oil lamp again, removed the tarp that acted as a rainy curtain and wrapped the bamboo basket, either carried it on their shoulders or fixed it on both sides of the donkey, and walked quickly towards the direction of the plane crash.
Guided by the night sky stained with fire, everyone would not have gone in the wrong direction. However, after leaving the road opened by the large army in front, the primitive jungle where few people came was not easy to walk. In addition, it was a downpour that seemed to be discharged from the flood. When they arrived at the fire point, at least half an hour had passed.
However, the fire was just fuel pouring out of a broken wing and several big trees that were broken. Wei Ran didn't even see the plane's engine.
Fortunately, although the plane wreckage was not here, the tropical trees whose crowns had been cut off once again helped them to guide the direction.
Bypassing the flame that was still burning and even unknown whether there would be an explosion, everyone continued to walk forward for more than ten minutes. After discovering two engines that were also burning with faint flames, they finally saw the main wreckage of an aircraft.
In the pouring rainstorm, the aircraft that had traces of hundreds of meters on the surface were dragged, and the remaining wings on both sides of the fuselage were firmly stuck at the roots of two broken trees. These two overturned trees also covered the nose and tail of the aircraft with their respective crowns.
But even so, Wei Ran recognized at a glance that this was a 97th-level explosion with a large amount of equipment from the Japanese.
After realizing the specific model of the wreckage of the airplane, Wei Ran immediately became alert and raised his hand to stop his companion behind him.
"Go back!" Wei Ran and Squad Leader Liang shouted in no particular order.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Guochang, who was already preparing to run over, asked inexplicably.
"This is an aircraft that the Japanese specialize in throwing bombs."
Squad Leader Liang was the first to speak, "Our division headquarters used to shoot down a plane like this. There was a bomb on it. If it exploded, we would definitely not be able to escape when we were so close."
"Squad Leader Liang is right"
Wei Ran followed, "And the main body of this plane looks quite complete, maybe there are still people alive. You retreat and I'll go over and take a look first. If there is no danger, you go over again."
"I'll go." Squad Leader Liang had already pulled out his box cannon as he spoke.
"I'll go"
While Wei Ran was speaking, he had already taken off his back basket and stuffed it to Squad Leader Liang, "You retreat."
"If there is a bomb, run away quickly." Squad leader Liang reminded him worriedly.
"Don't worry"
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he took the flashlight handed over by Qin Shouzheng. This flashlight was one of the two flashlights seized from the Japanese when he met Zhou Guochang and Luke. As he walked along the way, the previous one became the bait to seduce the Japanese bombing, and this flashlight became darker and darker because it was lighted less and less.
Try to remove the battery as you were a child and smash it gently with the buttstock a few times and reinstall it. Wei Ran pushed the button again. Seeing that the brightness had increased a lot, he carefully got up.
At the same time, Squad Leader Liang also took the overly curious Qin Shouzheng and others to retreat in the distance.
Bent over the tree canopy lying across the treetop, Wei Ran first looked at the recognizable machine gun tower on the back of the machine. Seeing that there was no corpse here, he immediately mentioned vigilance and went around to the position of the machine's nose.
As expected, the nodal fire tower of the aircraft's cockpit was also seriously damaged. Through the tear, you can clearly see the body of the flesh-and-blooded lake inside. Although the cockpit is in better condition, you can still see the body still sitting in the driver's seat when you shine the flashlight against thick bulletproof glass.
After carefully confirming that even if there were living people inside, they could not get out of here. Wei Ran then walked around to the hatch door on the right side of the tail of the machine.
He carefully pushed open the hatch door that was seriously deformed due to the impact. When he reached into the flashlight, he saw four corpses like blood gourds.
You don’t have to check it out at all. Just look at the strange bending angle of their heads, the dark red blood overflowing from the corners of their mouths, and even the bones of the flight suits pierced by their thighs. The impact on the ground had already killed them.
By allowing the flashlight to extend inside, Wei Ran finally saw the last crew member in the bomber.
It was still sitting in the navigator's position at this time, but what Wei Ran didn't expect was that when he bent down and got into the cabin, the navigator turned his head and looked over with difficulty.
Taking a step closer, Wei Ran shone the Japanese with a flashlight and immediately noticed that his spine had completely lost its strength and could still be in position at this time, which was tied with the safety belt.
Not only that, when Wei Ran pulled away his flight suit, he immediately smelled the stinky smell, and also noticed that his ribs had collapsed.
"Where did you bombard me just now? How far is it from here? Why did you fall because of?" Wei Ran helped the other party tighten his flight suit again, and patiently asked in Chinese, English and German in turn.
"Save...Save me." The Japanese, who had severe fractures in the spine and ribs, said weakly in German with a strong accent.
"Where did you bomb just now, how far is it from here, and why did you fall?" Wei Ran asked again.
After saying "Engine failure", the Japanese man stretched his hand to the table in front of him with aerial maps spread out.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! However, before its fingers touched the aerial picture of the head dyed with dark red blood, it drooped down as if it had lost all its strength.
He reached out to the Japanese's nose and tried it, then put it on its neck and tried it. Wei Ran sighed regretfully, hugged its neck and turned it hard, completely extinguishing the possibility of rekindling with a crisp sound of the slug.
He picked up the flashlight again and walked to the edge of the driver's seat. Wei Ran glanced at the scars on the forehead of the body that was not cold and the collapsed nose bridge, and then glanced at the instrument panel with blood. After thinking for a while, he turned around and walked out of the cabin, bent down and drilled under the severely damaged muscle abdomen.
After careful inspection, he finally confirmed that the bombs on the plane had been cleared. He ran back a few steps and called out to the hiding squad leader Liang and others to come over.
"Is there a bomb inside?" Qin Shouzheng asked the first time.
"No, there are only bullets in the air gun."
Wei Ran led everyone in and said, "Let's go in and take a look. Let's look together, maybe you can find something that can be used."
"This one is used"
Before Qin Shouzheng finished speaking, he had already pulled off a goggle from the corpse at the door without telling him.
When Squad Leader Liang and the monk tied the donkey to the collapsed tree trunk, Qin Shouzheng and others also took off the goggles on the heads of the other two corpses and handed them over.
Although I don’t know if this thing is used, neither Squad Leader Liang nor the little monk Sehao refused this little gift.
