Chapter 211, everything is there
In the middle of the night, with Leng Feng unprepared, a dozen people from a team of less than fifty people took away almost all the horses in the team and left the camp quietly. This also meant that the remaining
There were about 30 people, including Leng Feng, Ma Xiao, and seven military commanders.
When we woke up in the morning, everyone was panicking, because some things and supplies were on which horses. Now that the horses were gone, how could they go on the road? The most important thing was that they were now "detained" in Luan as prisoners of war or laborers.
In Pingzhen, if someone is found to be absconding and you don't do anything, wouldn't it easily arouse suspicion?
Leng Feng punched the wall in anger, gritted his teeth and said, "Count the number of people."
Liu Jiaoyi immediately replied: "The special operations team is all here, including you, there are eight people, Ma Xiao and the surviving prisoners of war total 21 people, the total number is 29 people, 22 people escaped last night, the horses are still there
There are eight horses left in the east wing, as well as two horses with injured legs in the other room. Seven-tenths of the dry food is missing, and there are no casualties."
Those eight horses belonged to Leng Feng and the special agent team. They were kept outside the best room arranged by the mayor, so they were not lost.
"Has anyone noticed?" Leng Feng was referring to the guards in the town.
Liu Jieyi: "No one noticed that these veterans walked away quietly. The horses' hooves were all wrapped in cloth. I don't know how they got out. No one noticed them."
You don't need to be clever in the right place, there is no hope! Leng Feng said: "It's good to leave, just to save a few black sheep. Anyway, I rescued them, and I am the most benevolent. If anything happens to them again, you can't blame me."
"Without further delay, pack your things immediately and prepare to set off. If you delay for a long time, it will inevitably make people suspicious," Leng Feng said.
Liu Jieyi: “What to do with supplies”
Leng Feng: “What do you think we should do?”
Liu Jiaoyi nodded: "I know what to do." After saying that, he turned around and left. Leng Feng called out to him: "The common people have to spend the winter." Liu Jiaoyi said: "Don't worry, sir, I won't attack the common people." Leng Feng nodded.
By the time we set off, some dry food had already been put in bags and placed on the horse's back.
Liu Jiaoyi is definitely not a novice. He knows very well what to do to meet his current status as the "Kwantung Army".
The danger has not passed yet, so be vigilant at all times. After leaving Luanping, you need to go north along the Luanhe River, avoiding all traffic routes, railways and highways, and go to the Chabei area near Fengning to meet up with Du Liang.
This section of the road must be completed within two days.
Along the way, it is desolate and the mountains are blocked by heavy snow. People will not go out, unless some hunters will go out, but there are very few of them.
After walking for a day and a night, due to lack of horses, the traveling speed was reduced by half or even more, and they had to travel all day and night. Leng Feng and the others had given their horses to the wounded, and they were now exhausted.
Ma Xiao gasped: "Sir, we can't go on like this. The prisoners of war have been hungry and cold for a long time, and their physical condition is not good. Some of them have collapsed. In such a cold weather, once they fall ill, they are basically hopeless."
Liu Jiaoyi admired Leng Feng's physical strength, but he had to persuade him: "Sir, it's really not going to work anymore. You must rest. Otherwise, even if you join Du Liang, there won't be many people left alive."
Of course Leng Feng knew it in his heart, but looking at the weather, it would definitely be cloudy or even snowy tomorrow. As a last resort, Leng Feng said: "It's too late. We must rush to a village or a sheltered place as soon as possible. It's very possible tomorrow or in the middle of the night."
It will snow." And now the howling wind seemed to be blowing hard to confirm Leng Feng's judgment.
"Speed up, there is a cave five kilometers ahead, let's rest there," Leng Feng ordered.
"But!" Liu Jiaoyi was worried.
Ma Xiao grabbed a handful of snow, stretched his hand into the air, and after releasing it, snowflakes fell. "Oh no, it's going to snow! We have to hurry up, otherwise we will be hit by the snow on the road, and we will be doomed!" Ma Xiao
Xiao is an authentic Northeasterner and has the ability to judge the weather.
As the order was issued, the prisoners of war, no matter how unwilling they were, knew the pros and cons, and held on to their strength, their resentment, their resentment towards those former comrades who had abandoned themselves and kidnapped all the horses.
Grit your teeth and move forward.
This cave is very big, and you can even see traces of carvings at the entrance, but it seems like it has been a long, long time, and you can’t even see what the words are, no matter what the words are!
"Come in, come in, you, you, and you, come with me to get some firewood. It's going to snow soon. If you don't have enough firewood, you'll freeze to death. Hurry up!" Ma Xiao pointed at someone who looked more energetic.
Several people.
Leng Feng: "Let's go too, I don't know how many days it will snow for." As he said that, Leng Feng took three agents and went in to chop wood.
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and it is gradually mixed with snowflakes. I dare not open my mouth. If there is a gap in my mouth, my teeth will hurt from the cold.
It was early in the morning, the moon had moved to its highest point, and eight bundles of dry and tidal firewood were piled up, which made everyone feel at ease.
The fire was lit, and everyone was silent. Obviously, the defection of prisoners of war has made everyone panic, especially those who were a little wavered in the past, or to be precise, those who started late, now they have no ideas and nothing.
If you run out, you'll die.
The two civilians who came out with Leng Feng, one old and one young, all stayed by Leng Feng's side because they were incompatible with those prisoners of war. They followed Liu Jiaoyi and the others all the way and refused to be with those soldiers.
.
"Are you an official?" the middle-aged worker finally asked, and the younger one also raised his head and looked at Leng Feng.
Leng Feng: "Absolutely"
"Then...are we two strong men?"
Leng Feng: "It doesn't matter. When we return to the pass, you can go wherever you want."
The middle-aged worker breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I still want to go home and see my aunt and baby."
Leng Feng: "Yan Laoxi's boundary?"
Middle-aged worker: "No, in northern Shaanxi, this baby is from Yan Laoxi's territory." He is talking about the child of Shanxi merchants.
"Okay, I don't care where you want to go when you return to Guan," Leng Feng promised.
………………………
Night, winter night, cold, ruthless.
Leng Feng couldn't sleep and looked outside: "The dark night is often the most fearful part of people's hearts."
Liu Jiaoyi shook his head: "No, the night is the cutest. Many shameful things are best done at night. Moreover, the night is our protective color. As long as there is no fear in our hearts, we can become the fear of others."
Leng Feng smiled. Liu Jiaoyi was an agent of the military command. Of course he liked to do this kind of thing at night, such as assassinations and so on.
But what he said makes sense. As long as there is no fear in the heart, no matter how dark the night is, it is not a kind of cover for oneself.
"Sir, there is news from Du Liang," Bai Xing, who was in charge of communications, reported.
Leng Feng: "How is his arrangement going?"
Bai Xing: "It's not good. He said he can only get 50 people at most."
Leng Feng smiled miserably: "Huh, fifty people, we are only twenty-nine now."
Bai Xing: "Then how to reply?"
Leng Feng: "Tell him, there are twenty-nine people, and let him be prepared. It must be absolutely foolproof."
Bai Xing nodded: "Yes"
After a while, Bai Xing came back: "Du Liang replied, let us gather in Tucheng, 16 kilometers north of Fengning. Our personnel from Chabei will lead us through the Great Wall, enter the demilitarized area, and then return to Chicheng. Then we can directly
Return to the west of Yanqing, our controlled area"
Liu Jiaoyi: "That's great, much easier than we thought."
Leng Feng: "Yes, you don't need to take a detour to Yan Laoxi's territory. You can go back to North China directly. Yanqing is not far from Peking."
Liu Jiaoyi and the others nodded, this is undoubtedly the best news in the past few days.
However, at this time, chaos broke out in the cave. It turned out that the prisoners of war had another conflict. There was actually a group of people who wanted to separate their families!
"Why do you have the final say? We made a special agreement in the labor camp before. After you come out, you will take your Yangguan Road and I will take my single-plank bridge."
Ma Xiao: "You can escape with just a few of you. If we hadn't planned it, you would have done nothing but make a fool of yourself!"
"Don't worry, you've been eating biscuits for a few days and don't know what you farted. They will see that they have something else to do. Then they will inevitably use the brothers as cannon fodder to attract firepower from the Japanese idiots. I won't be fooled."
! Let’s distribute dry food tomorrow!”
"That's right! There are six of us, and we must be given at least half of the dry food!"
Ma Xiao was furious: "Why! There are twenty-nine people now, why do you six want half of it!" Ma Xiao doesn't have enough brains, so he has to give them dry food!
The leader of the other group of people pointed at the remaining people and said, "Don't open your eyes and look. There are only a few people left. Those who are dragging their feet are a burden! I won't wait to die with you!"
It turned out that some of the uninjured prisoners of war felt that it was impossible to escape with these wounded soldiers, so they gathered together and wanted to fly solo.
Chapter completed!
