Chapter 22 Calling the Array
Lei Zhenyun looked at Ma Ban deputy unexpectedly. This kid is okay. He seems to be quite adaptable to the army. He is not very capable, but he has learned a lot of things about the superior.
Take these dozen people with Lei Zhenyun immediately started running away, not to transfer, but to escape. He had to leave the site of the incident as fast as possible. The farther away the better. If the Japanese targeted them, it would be troublesome.
At their speed, it would be only one day to reach the place where Lin Xiu and the others hid, but Lei Zhenyun did not dare to go back directly. He was always worried that those of him would be targeted by the Japanese, and that his opponents would all know the jungle war better than those of his men. If they wanted to track them according to the traces left, they would not even have the ability to hide.
So Lei Zhenyun had to go to the end and try to cover up the traces of everyone's marching, but this was not possible. The traces of more than a dozen people were not covered by him alone, so he had to go around in circles to confuse the other party.
Several times Lei Zhenyun deliberately walked back and passed the place he had just walked to see if anyone was following him. His behavior aroused the suspicion of others several times. Everyone thought Lei Zhenyun was lost. At the beginning, Deputy Ma Ban still held back, but in the end he couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over and asked Lei Zhenyun, "Where are we going?"
Lei Zhenyun was looking for traces with all his might, so he answered him without thinking much, "If you don't go anywhere, just turn around a few circles and take a look."
Deputy Ma Ban's face changed color again. He had to resolutely carry out his superior tasks, so he tried every means to protect Lei Zhenyun. But if Lei Zhenyun is not able to complete his superior tasks, it would start from both ends.
Thinking of this, Squad Leader Ma pulled Lei Zhenyun's shoulder and said, "Are you lost?"
Lei Zhenyun was stunned. He didn't expect that Ma Ban would talk to him in this tone. Although he was a little angry, Lei Zhenyun still endured it. Now he didn't have time to vent his anger with him. This fool didn't know anything. It was probably not only him, but the others around him must not understand his intentions, so he had to patiently say: "I'm observing whether we have been followed. If you don't know, you can't go to Lin Xiu and the others."
Deputy Ma Ban looked around in surprise and said, "Are you saying there are Japanese following us?"
Lei Zhenyun sighed in his heart. It was a miracle that this kid had not died early on the battlefield. It was a shame for the entire Japanese military. He was not in the mood to talk to Deputy Ma Ban. If these people were not needed to carry the stretcher, Lei Zhenyun would have the intention to throw them away and leave them. Sometimes when he thought about it carefully, it would be really not unfair to not be able to beat the Japanese. A young man like Deputy Ma Ban was actually quite good. At least he would not do the stupid thing of using a wooden stick to hit a tank.
So he had to say, "Just let everyone follow me closely. I have lived in the mountains for more than 10 years. I dare not say anything else, and the road is definitely not wrong."
Deputy Ma Ban is no longer concerned about this issue. He asked nervously: "Then do you think we are being followed by the Japanese now?"
Lei Zhenyun didn't answer him because he became more and more shocked the more he looked at it. From his circle of detours, he only found one shoe print, a rubber-soled shoe print with a big toe and two toe forked.
Apart from this, there are no other traces, but the traces left by people like me are as numerous as ox-haired, and it is a big deal to be kept by the other party.
But why didn't the other party launch an attack for such a long time? I'm afraid there are only two reasons. The first is that they have few people, and then wait for reinforcements later. The second is that they want to see where they are going?
No matter what kind of reason, this battle has to be done to the end, and I am about to prepare for it. Thinking of this, Lei Zhenyun turned around and left, and climbed directly to a higher place along the way, no longer discouraging others from being careful not to leave any traces.
The deputy Ma Ban was unaware of it and couldn't ask, so he had to follow Lei Zhenyun to the mountain. Lei Zhenyun asked while walking, "How many battles have we fought in this group?"
Deputy Ma Ban put his chest up and said, "I have never stopped since I entered Myanmar. There have been more than a dozen battles, but... but our class has never been the main attacker."
This class has never been a main attacker? Why did he say this? Has he been a useful class since joining Myanmar?
Lei Zhenyun, who realized something was wrong, hurriedly asked: "What tasks do you usually do in your class?"
Deputy Ma Ban paused and said guiltily: "The...guards in the regiment."
Lei Zhenyun's head buzzed. No wonder the people in their squad were full. It turned out to be the guard squad in the regiment. This man surnamed Ma did not lie, but he might as well lie to himself.
How could such a group of new recruits be used as guards? Most of the guards are veterans who have experienced many battles, but when he thought about it, he suddenly understood that there are probably more than one person in the class of Deputy Ma Squad, who may be more than one.
He led such a group of waste to deal with the jungle masters behind him? The cool breeze began to vent the back of Lei Zhenyun's head. There was only one way to keep safety, that is, to throw these bastards away and run away by themselves, and let them serve as cushions for themselves, but he couldn't do such a thing.
The war is to be fought no matter what. People like me cannot get rid of the pursuers behind them, and they cannot take the Japanese to Lin Xiu. If the opponent takes the initiative, they dare not think about the consequences. They can only fight first and take a step back, and say that those who do first will take advantage of the ones who do later.
After climbing up for a while, Lei Zhenyun looked at the surrounding ground shape and called two soldiers and said, "You two are here, behind this stone, but you are not allowed to protrude, speak, or move. Until you hear the fire with others, you two will move over and drop bombs first and then fire a gun. Do you understand? If you don't do what I said, I will kill you both directly at the position above."
The two soldiers nodded with no expression on their faces. Lei Zhenyun led the machine gunners in the squad upwards for dozens of meters, pointing to a place and said, "You can stay here, Deputy Ma Squad, please find someone to help him."
Deputy Ma Ban started to arrange people in a hurry. Lei Zhenyun looked around again and pointed to a location a hundred ten meters away and said: "Everyone else went there. Once they exchanged fire with the other party, they started to move towards the machine gun within 3 minutes. Do you understand? Pay attention to saving bullets."
Seeing Lei Zhenyun carrying the gun and leaving, Deputy Ma Ban hurriedly grabbed him and said, "What are you going to do?"
Lei Zhenyun blocked his hand and said, "Call the way."
Squad Leader Ma said uneasy: "Then I...will we wait for you to come back?"
