Devil's Army

Chapter 730: Return to Huludao by Cargo Ship

Li Hongmei happily saluted a lieutenant walking over from the opposite side and said:

"Reporting to the lieutenant, I am Li Hongmei, the squad leader of the Northeast Anti-Japanese First Army Women's Special Forces. May I ask who you are?"

"Oh, so you are my comrades from the special forces. Hello! We are Zhao Defa, the company commander of the third company of the first battalion of the first regiment of the second brigade of the Northeast Anti-Japanese First Army."

"Isn't your regiment fighting in Wanping City? Have you retreated to Langfang?"

"After Wanping City fell, our main force retreated to Baoding. We were in Langfang because one of our First Army's planes was shot down by the Japanese. We found our pilot at Jiulong Mountain and prepared to escort him back to the tribe."

"Oh, we were originally planning to escort the families of the generals of the 29th Army back to Baoding, but the roads there were blocked by the Japanese, so we could only escort them back to the tribe via Jiulong Mountain."

"You also came from Jiulong Mountain? Have you seen our squad leader and the four soldiers who were providing cover?" A deputy squad leader squeezed forward and asked Li Hongmei.

Li Hongmei didn't say anything. Only then did she realize that the five bodies of their First Army soldiers found in front of the Dahongmen were from the Third Company.

"The Japanese were also searching for our parachuting pilots. In order not to expose the target, our squad leader took four soldiers to lead the Japanese towards Dahongmen. We retreated from Jiulong Mountain to Langfang." The deputy squad leader continued.

"They are all dead." The squad leader replied in a low voice.

After hearing this, the deputy monitor was stunned for a moment and walked away silently.

He and the squad leader were new recruits who joined the army at the same time. They got along very well and had a tacit understanding. They were promoted from soldiers to squad leader and deputy squad leader together.

Now the squad leader deceived him, saying that after they escorted the pilots back, he would continue to fight the Japanese with him in Peiping.

The company commander knew that the two of them had a good relationship, so he didn't say anything. He stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, then said to Li Hongmei:

"The Japanese signalman must have reported our pilot's whereabouts to the troops. We must leave here immediately."

"He probably didn't have time to report, because I shot him dead when he was setting up the radio station," said Li Hongmei.

"Okay, clean up the battlefield quickly." The third company commander urged the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield, and then said to Li Hongmei:

"Let's get out of here quickly. The gunshots will definitely attract the attention of the devils."

Li Hongmei nodded and went back with the team leader to ask Wei Ke and the others to take their families and leave this place as soon as possible.

After Li Hongmei and the third company left, the Japanese came over, but apart from more than 60 Japanese corpses, there was not even a trace of a resistance fighter.

When they arrived in Sanhe County, the families were too tired to walk. A teacher's wife told Li Hongmei directly:

"Just leave me here. I really can't walk anymore. My legs won't work."

Li Hongmei had no choice but to go to Sanhe County with the team leader and three special forces members to find a carriage.

Li Hongmei and the team leader rented a carriage each in Sanhe County, and rented another carriage through the driver's introduction.

When Li Hongmei and her companions were driving three horse-drawn carriages out of Sanhe County, a secret agent spotted them.

Soon, Li Hongmei and the squad leader discovered the spy who was following them.

Li Hongmei asked the team leader and his men to drive the carriage ahead, while she hid aside.

The spy was concentrating on following the squad leader and his men, and did not notice a girl walking towards him.

Li Hongmei easily took care of the spy and then caught up with the squad leader and his men.

With the carriage, the families all rode in it. When the pilot Ren Shiqiong landed, a branch pierced his left arm, so the third company commander arranged for him to ride in the carriage as well.

We continued on our journey and finally arrived at a small village in Tangshan in the evening.

This small village has an inconspicuous and simple wharf. There are cargo ships doing some small cargo transportation.

Li Hongmei found a cargo ship captain through the villagers and rented a boat from him to Huludao.

After everyone boarded the ship, Li Hongmei and the third company commander breathed a sigh of relief. They could finally go home. But at this time, General Song's concubine had a problem.

Due to the fright and the bumpy journey, the concubine's child is going to be born prematurely.

There was no way to find a doctor on the ship, so the trained Li Hongmei and others could only temporarily act as obstetricians and gynecologists to deliver the baby for General Song's concubine.

After more than an hour of hectic delivery, the baby was finally born, but unfortunately he had died. Fortunately, the concubine was safe and sound.

Thanks to the appearance of Li Hongmei and others, although General Song's child could not be saved, General Song's concubine who was vivisected by the Japanese Unit 731 and the families of the 29th Army who were killed by the Japanese Peking Gendarmerie were finally saved.

Leng Feng finally changed a small part of history! But the Japanese warships are rampant at sea. Can the small freighter return to Huludao safely? Only God knows.
