Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Lu Yao knew something was wrong when he heard the gunshots.

Hurry up and catch up.

Bandaging Xiao Liuzi took up half a day.

This journey is not short.

The further we walked, the denser the forest became.

It was pitch black ahead.

As they approached the area where the gunfire had started, Lu Yao dared not venture any further.

If someone is lying in ambush in the shadows at this moment, even the most skilled person cannot escape.

He cursed inwardly, thinking, "In this kind of environment, to recklessly pursue them is just asking for death!"

He held the Type 99 rifle, bent over, trying not to make any noise.

This means the speed will inevitably be very slow.

There's nothing we can do about it.

How can you save others if you can't even protect yourself?

Gunshots rang out again from ahead.

This time, the gunfire didn't sound like the militia's Type 56 rifles; it must have been the enemy.

How come the militia and the enemy switched positions?

Then there's only one possibility: they've been surrounded and are getting beaten up.

The enemy's firepower sounded like at least a dozen guns were firing simultaneously.

Fortunately, it doesn't seem to be a repeating automatic gun.

If I heard correctly, it's the Type 38 rifle!

If they hadn't captured any Japanese prisoners before, Lu Yao might not have been able to recognize the sound of this outdated gun.

I can guess it as soon as I hear it.

As he gradually approached, taking advantage of the gunfire, he observed the location of these people from a distance of thirty or forty meters.

Turn on the flashlight and place it on the tree branch.

Then quickly move in another direction.

After running for more than ten meters, I climbed up an old tree.

Squatting at a height of about ten meters.

The fact that no one noticed after the flashlight was on for so long proves that no one was looking in this direction.

So you are behind enemy lines.

From a higher vantage point, one can see enemy fire from fifty meters away.

Gunfire analysis indicates it originated from the militia.

With the enemy and friend identified, Lu Yao picked up his Type 99 rifle.

Use the 4x scope to look in the direction of the gunfire.

It was pitch black and nothing could be seen; both sides were fighting blindly.

As long as you pay attention to concealment, casualties in this kind of battle should not be too high.

The way the enemy is fighting doesn't seem like they're trying to annihilate the enemy with firepower, but rather they're trying to trap the enemy or drive them somewhere!

If they live here by hunting, then they must have set up traps and mechanisms in the woods.

Regardless of the circumstances, it's easy to guess the predicament Mei Ping and the others are in.

Lu Yao spotted a spot ahead where a gunshot had shone, calculated the shooter's position based on the location, and then pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

"what!"

A scream rang out; it was actually a child's voice.

Lu Yao shivered.

Who is the other party?

I hope it wasn't a typo.

His gun fired.

This alerted those who were besieging the militia.

He immediately turned the gun around and faced backward.

Only then did they notice the flashlight beams not far behind them.

"Bang bang bang bang"

A hail of bullets were fired at the flashlight.

At that moment, Lu Yao also used the gunfire to see the positions of many of the enemy's men.

Pull the trigger.

"Bang bang bang"

Three shots in quick succession.

Several screams were heard.

There was even a woman's voice.

Then, Japanese curses were heard.

As long as it's a simple daily routine, there's no mistake.

Regardless of their age or gender, anyone who ambushes a militiaman should be killed!

Lu Yao's firing of the gun also revealed his position.

Bullets flew over immediately.

Lu Yao had already scouted the terrain.

He turned and hid behind a tree.

The trunk of the old tree is so thick that bullets can't penetrate it.

After they fired a burst of shots, Lu Yao stretched out his hand.

Fire a few shots blindly in their direction.

Then he squatted on a branch behind the tree.

Waiting for the other side to fire wildly.

In the darkness, accurate shooting is impossible.

By blindly drawing enemy fire, Lu Yao was also trying to give the militia a chance to counterattack.

As soon as the firepower is redirected to attack the militia, he immediately goes down, moves to a different position, and starts fighting again.

The battlefield is not a place to be a hero; if you fight recklessly without thinking, you'll be dead in no time.

Mei Ping was overjoyed when she heard Lu Yao's gunshot.

Zhang Yuanchao shouted, "Company Commander Lu is here! Shall we charge back?"

Mei Ping nodded:

"The wounded should walk slowly behind. Li Jinbao and Liu Hui should cover the wounded as they go. Zhang Yuanchao, the two of us will lead the way."

There is a clear shortage of troops now.

But the goal isn't to annihilate the enemy; simply breaking through is victory in itself.

Mei Ping has already switched to the militia's Type 56 semi-automatic rifle.

They charged forward, one on each side of Zhang Yuanchao.

Crouch low and advance quickly, then find cover and fire.

After advancing about twenty meters, we found that there was no more suppressive fire ahead.

Further on, Mei Ping noticed that Zhang Yuanchao had not followed.

As I turned to look back, suddenly, the snow on the ground tumbled, and a person jumped out.

He held a gun with a bayonet and thrust it directly at her lower abdomen.

These enemies are too cunning.

Sensing the militia's counterattack, they hid in the snow.

They will launch a surprise attack when the enemy gets close.

Caught off guard, Mei Ping turned to dodge, but her hip was slashed by a bayonet.

He stumbled and fell to the ground.

She fired her gun as the enemy lunged at her.

With a "bang".

The injured person fell to the ground and quickly fled.

At the same time, gunshots rang out not far behind.

The bullet grazed past my ear.

Mei Ping quickly darted into the bushes and ran in another direction to avoid them.

Gunshots rang out from the woods.

Everything's in chaos; they can't support each other at all.

Bullets kept coming from behind.

Mei Ping had no choice but to quickly retreat in one direction.

While running, he used his five-six half-hand to suppress the opponent's pursuit.

You also have to worry about whether there are traps under your feet.

It was truly breathtaking.

With great difficulty, she managed to escape the woods.

Looking around, all I could see was a vast expanse of white snow, making it impossible to tell which way was which.

Surrounded by mountains, it was impossible to tell which mountain or ridge it was.

The wound on my hip bone is quite deep and keeps bleeding.

Just as I was about to take off my pants to take a look, suddenly a bullet flew by with a "bang".

The cotton hat on his head was knocked several meters away.

Startled, Mei Ping quickly raised her gun and fired into the woods.

Until the bullets of the fifth and sixth caliber were all used up.

Then he turned around and ran away.

After running more than a hundred meters, I looked back and saw two figures chasing after me out of the woods.

Mei Ping only had five bullets left in her pistol; at this distance, she couldn't fight against the enemy's rifle.

We had no choice but to run.

There was a narrow crevice in the valley ahead, and without thinking twice, she squeezed right in.

It was full of shrubs and weeds, making it very difficult to walk.

But if we don't run now, we're just waiting to die.

She gritted her teeth and endured the pain, running for her life.

The canyon has a complex terrain and many branching paths.

I reckon even if the people chasing after me come in, they won't be able to find me.

However, Mei Ping herself got lost.

It's like a headless fly, bumping around aimlessly in the canyon.

I don't know how long I ran, I just felt my head getting dizzier and dizzier.

Knowing that there was too much bleeding, if the bleeding wasn't stopped soon, he might faint.

Suddenly, my eyes lit up.

They stumbled out of the bushes by accident.

Before us lay a valley.

In the pristine white snow, there were more than a dozen wooden houses.

One of them was still lit by candlelight...

Is there a small village here?

Mei Ping, despite her injuries, had been running for most of the night. It was almost dawn, and she was utterly exhausted. Suddenly, everything went black, and she collapsed to the ground.
