Chapter 52 Distress (1)

In the evening, a sudden storm swept across the mountainous areas. This heavy rain not only cleaned the bloody smell that spread in the air after the explosion, but also allowed Yang Zhen and a team of more than a dozen brothers to completely get rid of the most likely pursuit of the Japanese army with the help of the heavy rain.

Yang Zhen knew that the huge explosion of Wudaoling Iron Mine, which was only 18 kilometers away from the Binsui Railway, could not have been unaware of the Japanese and puppet troops. After the explosion was over, he simply checked the battlefield and did not even clean it up, just because he was worried that the Japanese and puppet troops nearby would come to reinforce after hearing the explosion. Yang Zhen could even conclude that with the Japanese reaction speed, reinforcements could even arrive before noon.

Although the heavy rain in the evening caused trouble for the march, it could delay the pursuit of the Japanese and puppet troops, at least hide their intentions and clean up the traces left by the march. Even if the Japanese transfer the military dogs to the military, they might not be able to discover the traces of the heavy rain.

It is a good thing to get rid of the Japanese army's pursuit, but because there is nowhere to hide from the rain during the march and there is no rain gear, Yang Zhen, who is injured and is extremely tired, suddenly had a high fever in the early morning of the next day after evacuating the Wudaoling Iron Mine.

Looking at Yang Zhen who was sleeping in a coma due to a high fever, he had been taking care of him, but as a doctor, he didn't even have half a pill. He was basically helpless and the only thing Zhang Ting could do was to keep wet the cloth with cold water and apply it to his head, trying to lower his body temperature.

On the other hand, Yang Zhen was also watching him sleepless and trembling with a high fever. Li Mingrui, who was also helpless, was even more anxious and had no choice. Everyone was poured like a chicken with soy sauce, and there was not even a piece of dry clothes on hand. Even if he had a dry clothes for him to change, it would be better.

Seeing Li Mingrui who was anxious, Zhang Ting, who really couldn't lower Yang Zhen's body temperature, suddenly remembered and said, "Do you know herbs? If you know herbs, you'd better pick some herbs to come over. See if you can use herbs to lower his body temperature first."

Hearing Zhang Ting's words, Li Mingrui scratched his head and said, "I can kill people, but I don't understand this herb at all. Even if I understand, I only know some medicines for treating trauma. I really don't understand this herb for treating headaches and fever. By the way, aren't you a doctor? You should understand some herbs?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ting shook her head and said, "I studied Western medicine in school, and I don't know anything about traditional Chinese medicine. Most of the teachers in our school are Japanese. Even if there are Chinese professors, most of them have returned from studying abroad. They don't understand at all and look down on traditional Chinese medicine."

After saying that, Zhang Ting looked at the others who were also wearing wet clothes and were trembling with a little cold and said: It just rained, and the weather in the mountains was cold at night. Now you have to find a dry place for your brothers to rest, otherwise it would be not just him, but by tomorrow morning, there would be more people who would get sick."

"At least, you have to clean the wounds for the injured, otherwise it will be bad if you get an infection. Even if you can't find a house, you must at least find a cave first. It would be even better if you can get some hot soup to warm your brothers up."

"No, Chief Yang repeatedly told me before he fell into a coma that he would not allow him to enter any village before joining the army. Since we came out together in Harbin, we have encountered too many traitors. After several betrayals, we can't believe anyone here. Today you have also seen that a chef betrayed us just for some fake coins."

Li Mingrui shook his head against Zhang Ting's suggestion that he asked him to find a house for his brothers to rest. Huang Dali's past experience, coupled with his personal experience, made him lose trust in the people in this area. Li Mingrui knew that with the remaining combat power of the brothers around him, there was no need to be too many. It would be enough for the 20s or 30s to be a puppet Manchukuo police.

Zhang Ting, who had witnessed the betrayed today, was silent after hearing this. After a long time, she said: "This is not a big deal about these people. They are afraid of being killed by the Japanese. The people here were as passionate as the people in the pass. When helping the Anti-Japanese United Army fight against the Japanese, they wanted food and people to produce people. There was never a word of no word."

"The Anti-Japanese Allied Forces are not strong and cannot fight against the Japanese. The Japanese forces come, and the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces can withdraw, but the people's family business is here. Where do they retreat? I don't know what the Japanese did in Nanjing, nor have I heard of them. The Japanese were extremely blocked in Manchuria. Apart from boasting about their great military power all day long, it is difficult for us to know other news."

"What we know is that the people who killed the Japanese and helped the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces are killed by ditch by ditch. How many families were killed and their wives and children were separated? Who can figure out clearly? Returning to the village and joining the households, how many people will be carried out in a year of winter? The people are afraid of being killed and are so heartbroken."

"It is true that men and men in the Northeast are afraid of death, but we have never lacked blood. During the September 18th Incident, the Northeast Army withdrew without a single shot, and most of the remaining Northeast surrendered to the enemy and became traitors. Thirty million fellows in the Northeast were thrown to the Japanese, but our compatriots in the Northeast were not willing to be slaves to the country and spontaneously organized to resist."

"They formed the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army. Without any foreign aid, or even their own government had never supported a shot and shot, they fought bloody battles with the Japanese with simple equipment. After the Northeast Volunteer Army failed, they joined the Anti-Japanese United Army and were still in a bloody battle with the Japanese invaders."

"By this year, the three eastern provinces have fallen for seven years. During these seven years, we are still resisting, fighting, and never surrendering. Even in the cold and cold of minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius, even if we can't eat or eat, even if we are thin, they are still fighting."

"You have encountered a lot of corrupt bones, and they betrayed you, I admit that. But in such a big China, are there few traitors? In such a big three northeastern provinces, 30 million people have only produced a few mere bed bugs. They cannot represent the fellow villagers in the Northeast. Chief Li, the traitors in the New Beijing who are so arrogant and betrayed their ancestors and rely on the Japanese invaders to do their best. They are not all Northeastern people."

Li Mingrui was speechless when Zhang Ting said this. He didn't realize that this woman who was so arrogant in his impression had this side, and could tell so many great truths.

Although he was a little impressed with Zhang Ting in his heart, Yang Zhen's order was an order. Li Mingrui dared not not insist. Even if he didn't do it for himself, for Yang Zhen, who was now having a high fever and was sleeping, he would not dare.

Li Mingrui shook his head and said, "Ms. Zhang, orders are orders, and I must execute them. I cannot disobey the orders that Chief Yang has been with him. I am a soldier, and obeying orders is my duty. So Miss Zhang, I am sorry."

Speaking of this, Li Mingrui looked at Yang Zhen who was sleepy again and said, "Miss Zhang, can you think of a way to persevere? Chief Guo has medicines seized from the Japanese. As long as he finds the main force, I think the medicines should not be a big problem."

"Sir Li, it's not that I can't hold on, it's that you, Chief Yang, don't think of a way to reduce the fever, I'm worried that the fever will cause a problem. Once the wound is infected and causes sepsis, then all that awaits him is death."

"When I bandaged him, I didn't even have the necessary disinfection of alcohol or even salt water. I couldn't clean the traumatic surface, so I could only do a simple bandage. In addition, the heavy rain in the evening, I was very worried that his wound would be infected. Even if it wasn't for the wound, it would cause problems if it wasn't for the wound to be infected. Especially when his physical condition is extremely poor, it is easy to cause pneumonia or encephalitis."

"You have agreed to meet in Daqingdingzi Mountain, but in such a large place around Daqingdingzi Mountain, can you guarantee that you can find your main force immediately? If you can't find the main force, there will be no medicine available."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ting looked at Yang Zhen and whispered: "Besides, I'm worried that he may not be able to hold on until you find the troops. In any case, now we must find a way to retreat his burn as soon as possible. His situation is too dangerous."

Although Li Mingrui didn't understand Zhang Ting's words, he still understood what the word "danger" means. Li Mingrui hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and called the two uninjured brothers, and told them to find a cave as soon as possible. It would be better to find a way to get some dry firewood.

Although the mountainous areas in the northeast are different from the karst landforms of the southwest, which are full of caves, they are relatively easy to find in the same mountainous areas. The two veterans found a small cave with a hidden entrance in a short while. Although it was not big, it was still possible to accommodate these people. However, after the baptism of heavy rain in the evening, there was no place to find the dry firewood.

In the end, Liu Sigou, a veteran of Gui Jun, had many ways. He dismantled a few bullets, sprinkled gunpowder from the bullets on the collected pine branches, seized them in the battle of Ash River, and found ways to save them. The only match that could still be lit that was not wet by the rain ignited a pile of fire. Although the smoke was a little bigger because the firewood was too wet, it was always better than not.

With fire, it means warmth. With hot water, you can drink it and dry the wet clothes on your body. Although there is no food, it is good to drink hot water in this ghost weather. Although there is no pot, the Japanese helmet is a good alternative.

After igniting the bonfire, Li Mingrui was not worried about Zhang Ting's presence, and immediately took off all the wet clothes on Yang Zhen's body, covered it with his own dry clothes, and racked Yang Zhen's clothes to the fire and baked them.

When the rest of the people saw Li Mingrui covering his dry clothes on Yang Zhen, Yang Zhen was still trembling and covered his dry clothes on Yang Zhen.

Only Liu Sigou did not take off his clothes, and even didn't even bake clothes. He stepped forward and looked at Yang Zhen who had been sleeping due to a high fever. Liu Sigou picked up the gun and said to Li Mingrui: "Sir Li, it's not okay for Chief Yang to always burn like this. I'll think of a way to see if I can get some food and get some herbs back."

"Before I joined the Gui Army, I was a hunter. The people in the mountains were poor and not so expensive. I was injured or had a headache or fever during hunting, and looked down on the doctor. I would pick some herbs and treat them by myself."

"I know a lot of herbs that can cure trauma. I went out to take a look and found some herbs to come back. However, although this trip to Guandong was not voluntary, it was the first time we came back. I don't know if there are any common herbs in my hometown."

Hearing the herbs that Liu Sigou knew, Li Mingrui thought for a moment, then looked at Yang Zhen, who was already in a semi-unconscious beside him, and nodded and said, "Okay, but you can't go alone. The environment here is too unfamiliar to us, and you can't handle any abnormalities yourself. Choose a brother to accompany you."

"Also, no matter what happens, don't shoot easily, come back and report immediately. This place is still a little close to Wudaoling. The Japanese reinforcements must have arrived there at this time. The gunfire will cause some unnecessary trouble. Come back when you find the herbs. Aren't there still those captured horses? If it really doesn't work, kill one. You are a veteran, you should know what to do."

"You can take good care of Chief Yang with confidence. I understand these things." Liu Sigou nodded and responded, and then took a brother out. After leaving, he did not forget to disguise himself and cover the small cave entrance.

Seeing Liu Sigou leave, Li Mingrui sighed in his heart, but he didn't dare to give him too much hope. This guy is from Gui Jun. In the mountains of Guangxi, he will be as good as a fish in water, and it is easy to find something he wants to find. But in the mountains of Guandong, can he still do it? Especially in the dark clouds in this mountainous area where you can't see your fingers.

Although Li Mingrui dared not have much hope, Li Mingrui still put his hope on him, hoping that he could find some useful herbs.

Li Mingrui knew that if Liu Sigou returned empty-handed, even if he took a risk, he could only take a gamble and take Yang Zhen to find someone else's place. Even if he couldn't find a serious doctor, even if he could only find a doctor away, it would be better than being helpless here.

Just as Li Mingrui was thinking about what he should do after Liu Sigou returned empty-handed, a few crisp gunfires from the quiet night sky interrupted his thoughts.

Although it sounds very far away, these gunshots made Li Mingrui's heart skip. Could it be that Liu Sigou encountered the Japanese? How could the Japanese come so quickly?

Just as Li Mingrui was secretly guessing the source of the gunshots, Yang Zhen, who had just been sleeping because of the high fever, suddenly woke up after hearing these gunshots.

"Mingrui, where are you shooting? Why are there two people missing? Where is this place?" Yang Zhen, who heard the gunshots, seemed to be completely different from the previous one. After a brief moment of loss of consciousness, he immediately became energetic.

Seeing Yang Zhen sitting up, Li Mingrui quickly ran over and helped Yang Zhen up and leaned against him and said, "Sir Yang, I don't know whether the gunshots came from there. But judging from the sound, they should have come from the south."

"We should be in a cave about twenty miles southeast of Wudaoling. You were in a coma just now because of a high fever, and Liu Sigou went out to find medicine for you."

"I'm confused, why don't you hurry up all night? What should I do when I stop? Can the heavy rain stop the Japanese for a while? Can the Japanese stop the Japanese for a lifetime? The Japanese have railways and convenient roads, and can quickly mobilize troops. If we cannot join the main force as soon as possible, once the Japanese soldiers siege, we will be trapped here even if we don't die in battle."

"And how can you promise them to act alone? He is not familiar with the place here, and the enemy situation, environment, and even the routes around him are all unfamiliar. Didn't I tell you again and again that no one is allowed to act alone, and try not to stop and rest? How did you do this?" Yang Zhen said these words very seriously.
