"This village doesn't look like it has been bombed by US aircraft or ground sweeping by US-South Korea Allied Forces. Why are all the people living in the village running away? It's so strange. Now it's a problem to find a North Korean fellow in the village to ask about the road. What should I do?"

After listening to Sun Lei’s report, the company commander Zhao Yifa immediately frowned, looked sad, and muttered to himself.

Since instructor Wang Wenju was only one step away from him, he naturally said to the company commander Zhao Yifa's voice just now, and he could hear it clearly, and his face became solemn.

The reason why company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju wanted to find a Korean fellow in this village to ask about their way is because the map they were holding was drawn more than 20 years ago, and many landmarks and place names have certain differences compared to now.

They were unsure of it, afraid that they would make the mistake of the way to get away from the marching destination after rushing all night, so they would not be able to complete the interception and blocking mission interspersed behind enemy lines on time.

After sighing helplessly, the two of them felt that in addition to this, there was another important thing to let the soldiers who had been walking all night long to settle down in the village first, rest for the whole hour before sending it out, and wait for the other companies that were left behind.

As we were talking, it was already six o'clock in the morning, and the horizon in the east also turned white, and the light red morning glow could be seen vaguely, indicating that it should be another sunny day, which should be a blessing for them who need to continue rushing.

At this moment, for the warriors of the third company of Sharp Knife, in addition to their bodies feeling very exhausted, their stomachs were also rumbled, which made them tired and hungry along the way.

When the soldiers slumped around were all panting and covering their hungry stomachs, the company commander Zhao Yifa really felt a little reluctant.

He learned from several scouts sent back that there were no traces of the activities of the US-South Korea Allied Forces within a radius of ten miles of this village, and they could have a good rest here.

Considering that there was still a long way to go, instructor Wang Wenju and company commander Zhao Yifa discussed it and called the squad leader of the cooking squad to them, and asked them to take out the remaining half pound of white flour and find some dry firewood from the village to make a fire to cook.

No matter what, the soldiers cannot continue to march on hungry. This is what the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju must consider at the first time. Only by filling the soldiers with their stomachs can they have the strength and spirit to continue rushing. Otherwise, the tired and hungry soldiers will definitely not be able to withstand it.

In less than five minutes, the soldiers of the kitchen team picked up a large pile of dry firewood from the village, and at the place where they were resting in sharp knives, they laid the big pot with a few solid tree trunks.

The pot rack has been set up, and the only thing I lack now is to find water quickly. In the past, in the ice and snowy environment, if I buried the pot to make rice, I would just put the clean snow into a large iron pot and light it into water.

But now, it is difficult to see the residual snow on the ground, and water must be found. If there is no water, it would be really hard for the cook to cook without rice.

Their sharp knife three were right next to this village. Even the stupidest people knew that there must be a well in this village. Otherwise, how could the people in this village survive until now? What's more, there is not even a river within a radius of ten miles.

Instructor Wang Wenju gave the task of finding water in the village to Sun Lei. In order not to waste time on the march, he gave him a dead order, asking him to get the water within ten minutes.

Without saying a word, Sun Lei took two assault squad soldiers and trotted into the village again. The last time, he went to find Korean fellow villagers from house to house, and this time, he went to the village to find water.

At this time, Sun Lei's opinion was that in this small village with only dozens of households at the foot of the mountain, people in the entire village must share one or several wells, and the wells are generally located in the center of the village.

Following this idea, in less than two minutes, Sun Lei and the two soldiers found a well next to the intersection of the two main roads in the village, north and south.

The next problem is that at this intersection in the middle of the village, there is a well on each side of the left and right sides, and they only have a water utensil in their hands, which puts them in the choice of two-choice.

The equipment that was said to be a water-fetching device was actually just a steel helmet worn on the head. It was taken off the head of a US lieutenant who was killed by him in a battle and left it on his body as a commemoration.

In addition to that steel helmet, they also brought a rope that was originally used to tie the marching backpack, and tied the two ends of the rope to the mouths on the left and right sides of the steel helmet. They planned to use this method to fetch water.

When Sun Lei conducted a brief on-site survey of the two wells on the left and right sides of the intersection, he found that the well on the left side was less than a layer of moss, but some messy footprints were left.

In addition, there was not even a lifting rack for watering. Based on this, he determined that the well on the left was probably a dry well.

In contrast, there are no traces of moss around the well on the right. There are many footprints distributed around the well, and there is also a lifting rack where the rope was removed.

Therefore, Sun Lei secretly confirmed that there should be water in the well on the right. After making this judgment, he quickly instructed the two soldiers next to him to walk to the well on the right with him.

The two soldiers who came with him thought their squad leader Sun Lei was quite evil. Without even telling them the reason, they concluded that the level on the left was a dry well, and they didn't believe it in their hearts.

So the two soldiers picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground, and one soldier ran to the well on the right and threw down the stone he was holding.

When the soldier standing in front of the well on the right threw down the fist-sized stone in his hand, he immediately heard a "gulp" sound from the well. Needless to say, there must be water under the well.

Almost at the same time, the soldier standing in front of the well on the left threw down the small stone in his hand, but made a "bang" sound, as if he had hit something hard.

"ah……"

Immediately afterwards, a man screamed wailingly from the bottom of the well on the left.
