Chapter 453 Cave
Although Team Leader Niu did not investigate the red personnel, it was still very simple for him to find out whether there was food in the troops.
"Oh? Really? So what?" Zhao Zhiguo still acted very calmly.
Seeing Zhao Zhiguo's calm look, Niu Feiyuan thought that Zhao Zhiguo didn't understand what he said, and then explained it again.
"Captain Zhao, we are all in the same boat now. Shouldn't we share the hardships and blessings at this time?"
"Hahaha, share adversities and share blessings? Team Leader Niu probably only means sharing blessings, right?" Zhao Zhiguo sneered.
Niu Feiyuan naturally understood the meaning of Zhao Zhiguo's words. Ever since Zhao Zhiguo and his group fought against the Japs, Niu Feiyuan had not fired a single shot. Along the way, he, Niu Feiyuan, had not done anything to help him.
"Captain Zhao, what do you mean by this? Do you want to starve us to death?"
Compared with being hungry and still having to be brave, Niu Feiyuan can still tell the difference between what is light and what is serious.
"Team Leader Niu, you are thinking too much. I just said that I will definitely find a way to solve the food problem." Zhao Zhiguo said.
"Solve it? How to solve it? You eat the little devil's canned meat and let us eat raw rat meat?"
Niu Feiyuan shouted excitedly to Zhao Zhiguo.
Many soldiers also looked at the two of them, wondering why the two had a quarrel.
"Captain Zhao, Captain Niu, what happened? Why are you arguing?"
Captain Qi also appeared in front of the two people at an inappropriate time, as if everything was a coincidence.
"Captain Qi, you are here at the right time. You are here to comment. Now there is nothing to eat in the team. I don't even have a grain of food in my pocket, and Commander Zhao's subordinates are still eating the little devil's canned meat."
.”
"Just in time, Captain Zhao, I'm also here to discuss the food issue with you. Our regiment ran out of food last night. If this continues, the soldiers will not have the strength to continue on their way."
"Captain Qi, I don't have any extra grain in my hand!"
On the food issue, Zhao Zhiguo's attitude was very firm.
"If there was food, I wouldn't have shared that rat meat with you yesterday."
The mention of rat meat made Captain Qi feel nauseous.
"Fart, Commander Zhao, I saw with my own eyes the soldiers of your regiment eating canned meat. Are you saying that I made it up and deliberately wronged you? You just want us to starve to death." Niu Feiyuan said.
"Team Leader Niu, I hope you can be more civilized. That food is the only food left for our soldiers. They still have to maintain enough physical strength to fight the Japanese army. Don't you want them to fight the Japanese army hungry?"
Zhao Zhiguo originally wanted to be polite to Niu Feiyuan, but now he doesn't want to be polite anymore.
"Captain Zhao, why not take out the food from your regiment and distribute it equally among everyone. If necessary, soldiers from our regiment can also help."
Captain Qi pretended to mediate the conflict between the two people, but in fact it was for his own benefit. When the fight comes, whether he will help or not is not a matter of one word from Captain Qi?
Zhao Zhiguo shook his head and resolutely rejected Commander Qi's "good intentions".
If that time comes, even if Commander Qi cooperates to resist the Japanese army, whether to retreat or not is still a matter of one word from Commander Qi.
Putting this unstable factor on the battlefield, Zhao Zhiguo might as well let his soldiers go, at least they would not give up their position at a critical moment.
"Zhao Zhiguo, what do you mean?" Captain Qi's expression changed when he saw Zhao Zhiguo's refusal.
"I need to ensure that this unit has greater combat effectiveness. If I were to make a choice between the soldiers of your regiment and the soldiers of our regiment, I would choose the soldiers of our regiment because they have stronger combat effectiveness and are easier to survive on the battlefield."
"You...I will definitely report this matter to the Commander-in-Chief when you go back!"
"I also want to report it to our superior!" Niu Feiyuan also glared at Zhao Zhiguo.
"If we can all go back alive, please feel free to do whatever you want."
Zhao Zhiguo didn't care about this at all.
The two of them felt resentful when they saw that Zhao Zhiguo refused to eat, so they had no choice but to leave and find ways to get food on their own.
But in this big mountain, they can't shoot a gun or light a fire. What food can they get?
"Captain, I'm back!"
Yao Pengju's face was full of fatigue, and he led his soldiers to run around the nearby hills.
"Did you find anything?" Zhao Zhiguo looked at Yao Pengju expectantly.
"There is a cave five kilometers ahead on the right. It is naturally formed and can accommodate a thousand people. However, no water source has been found around it."
"Where there is a cave, there is water! But it can accommodate a thousand people, what will happen to the rest?"
It was impossible for Zhao Zhiguo to leave the remaining people outside the cave.
"Indeed, the rock walls inside the cave are very wet... Maybe we can actually get water." Yao Pengju had already gone deep into the cave to take a look. "It's just that the remaining people are difficult to deal with. If they are exposed outside, they may be killed by the Japanese army."
It was discovered by a reconnaissance plane.”
During the day, what they feared most was the Japanese reconnaissance plane. As long as one soldier was discovered, their entire team would have nowhere to hide.
"I can't worry about that much anymore, let's go and take a look first!"
Although they had been marching in the dark for half the night, their marching speed in the mountains was very restricted. Japanese reconnaissance planes were in the sky, and it was very easy to find them as long as they expanded their search around them.
It is a naturally formed cave. There are dense weeds and shrubs outside the cave entrance. It is really difficult to find it if you don't get close.
"A soldier slipped and fell from above while exploring the road. After falling down, he discovered this cave." Yao Peng pointed to the top of the cave entrance.
Originally they thought it was just a small valley down there, but they didn't expect to find something unexpected.
"The terrain outside the cave entrance is narrow. If the Japanese army discovers it..."
Zhao Zhiguo looked at the cave and scratched his head anxiously. The terrain around the cave was so strange that there was almost no advantageous place.
If the Japanese army discovers their movement, the Japs only need to use two light machine guns to seal their way out.
The team was already short of food. If the Japanese army blocked them in the cave for two days, the hungry soldiers would be unable to pick up weapons and would be slaughtered by the little devils.
"Then I'll find another place!" Yao Pengju said.
"No, let's take a look first."
Zhao Zhiguo also knew that the special forces team was very tired, and the structural condition inside the cave might be better than he thought.
Gao Cang led a large force to wait outside. Captain Qi and Niu Feiyuan were naturally worried about Zhao Zhiguo entering the cave. They were afraid that Zhao Zhiguo would monopolize any good things, so they also asked to follow Zhao Zhiguo.
