Chapter 218

Just after Duan Yu left.

While walking on the mountain, suddenly a few faint dog barks came from the direction he had just left.

Duan Yu's face immediately darkened:

"This road can't be taken either?!"

Without any hesitation, he immediately changed direction.

Since the Japanese army could chase him here, it meant that the base he was preparing to go to was already known to the Japanese army.

Maybe there are people waiting there now.

However, the audience in the live broadcast room still didn't know the situation.

After Duan Yu changed direction, while walking heavily in the snow, he said to the Blue Star netizens in the live broadcast room:

"The base I was originally going to is very hidden."

"Even most Mobile Corps Commander members don't know, because that base was also built when I was in the [World War I] series plot, randomly assigned the identity of a primitive Anti-Japanese United Army soldier."

"Only a few people know."

"After so many years of fighting, to the 1940 of the plot now, there shouldn't be many people who know."

"Logically speaking, the Japanese army shouldn't be able to chase in this direction."

"But I have already walked for 7 days and 7 nights, and the Japanese army is still chasing closely behind; I'm afraid that base has already been exposed."

"I was wondering why the Japanese army's nose is sharper than a dog's this time."

"Now I can be sure."

Duan Yu's face was ugly; although he suspected it before, he had no way to be sure, but now he can be certain.

No wonder the situation suddenly became so difficult. Duan Yu took a deep breath, looked back at the direction the dog barks came from, gritted his teeth, and quickened his pace; he must not let the Japanese army catch up.

Night fell.

The world became silent.

Duan Yu, who had been walking for most of the day, had changed from walking normally to leaning on a tree branch.

And in those heavy footprints, there was already a little bright red; his hands and feet were already frozen to the point of numbness, hungry and cold.

Even if all kinds of sensations were adjusted to the lowest, it still couldn't hide the weakness of the body.

This is something willpower cannot control. Seeing that the sky had already darkened, Duan Yu knew he had to quickly find a place to rest to get through tonight.

Otherwise, he would freeze to death outside.

And now the stomach cramps brought by hunger were like fire.

Duan Yu looked around, saw a birch tree, walked over with difficulty, pulled out the knife at his waist, and slashed along the dry bark.

Peeling open the dry bark, the light yellow inner bark was revealed inside.

Duan Yu carefully dug out a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed hard while supporting his chin with his frostbitten hands.

The bark was bitter and astringent, and the fibers inside were as coarse as sawdust.

Even though he was so hungry, and after chewing with the help of his hands for a long time, he still couldn't swallow it at all.

But fortunately, Duan Yu had experience; chewing for a long time was also to make the rough bark as crushed as possible. After feeling it was about right, Duan Yu bent down and grabbed a handful of snow.

Stuffed it into his mouth.

The snow water mixed with the bark flowed into his throat, and the cold feeling reaching his stomach made his whole body tremble, and the burning sensation in his stomach also decreased a bit, but soon it came up again.

Duan Yu's movements didn't stop, and he continued to dig for the light yellow bark.

Stuffed it into his mouth and then swallowed it with snow water.

I don't know how long it took, but Duan Yu, who finally caught his breath, once again set off toward the distance.

Just looking at the frostbite on his hands, Duan Yu sighed in his heart.

In this plot, I'm afraid I can only hold on for one more day.

Next door live broadcast room.

In the live broadcast room of Blue Star streamer Tang Xu, who is also challenging survival.

Unlike the desperate survival of Fang Ming and Duan Yu avoiding the devils, at this time Tang Xu's live broadcast room is in a fierce battle with the devils.

They have been fighting for two days.

The original team of more than 20 people now only has him left.

At this time, Tang Xu had just escaped the sight of the devils, hiding in a broken house in an abandoned village, took out the last frozen corn cake from his bosom, and carefully took a small bite.

Chewed slowly in his mouth while guarding against the outside.

Suddenly.

Faint dog barks came from outside.

Tang Xu cursed secretly:

"They came too fast."

Thinking of stuffing the corn cake back into his bosom, he then checked the bullets, his brows furrowed.

Only 5 bullets left.

Even if all 5 hit, it's not enough.

But at this moment, he couldn't think that much.

Quickly pulled the bolt to load the rifle in his hand, and then Tang Xu looked out through the broken window.

In the distance.

The figures of five or six Japanese devils were surrounding him in a fan shape, and the military dogs they were leading were constantly barking toward his side.

Tang Xu silently climbed over the house and retreated toward the back mountain.

The Blue Star netizens in the live broadcast room also held their breath, nervously watching this scene.

However.

Just as Tang Xu stepped into the back mountain, a burst of crazy dog barking came from the right side, and Tang Xu's scalp went numb instantly:

"Damn!"

"They arranged people in the back mountain too?"

He wanted to change direction, but it was already too late.

A sharp whistle pierced the sky.

Immediately followed by the hurried shouting in Japanese and the metallic sound of bolts being pulled, and the dog barking in the mountain village below was also barking crazily, obviously all surrounding here.

Bang!

A bullet flew past his ear and hit the tree trunk behind, wood chips splashing everywhere.

Tang Xu rolled and hid behind a tree, his heart beating wildly. He wanted to take out his rifle to counterattack, but thinking of his only 5 bullets and the large group of devils surrounding him from the village.

Tang Xu gritted his teeth, turned, and ran into the woods.

In the distance.

Stiff Chinese came from over there:

"You have been surrounded!"

"Surrender!"

Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by constant shooting.

Tang Xu ran while listening to the persuasion to surrender behind him, couldn't help but look back, raised his gun at the pursuing Japanese army:

"Surrender your mother!!!"

Bang!

One shot was fired, but it didn't hit the head.

Seeing that the Japanese soldier covered his shoulder and hid, Tang Xu had no choice:

"Damn it."

7

Turned and continued to run into the mountains.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gunshots echoed constantly in the mountain forest, and the devils' encirclement was getting smaller and smaller.

Only when he ran to the top of the mountain, Tang Xu didn't dare to run anymore.

Because once he went down the mountain, it would be an open area, completely a moving target.

Tang Xu thought for a while, tore off a few pieces of his hat and clothes, and threw them away separately to attract the attention of the devils' military dogs.

And he looked around, found a rock behind which to think about a battle plan.

Very quickly.

A wave of pursuing devils led military dogs to search here, but the two military dogs, because of the clothes thrown away separately, moved in several directions.

Several Japanese devils didn't know which way to chase, so they could only split up, each following a military dog.

Tang Xu held his breath, watching two Japanese soldiers with a military dog getting closer and closer, until when they were less than 30 meters away, the military dog barked wildly at the rock.

Tang Xu stood up suddenly and pulled the trigger!

Bang!

A devil fell to the ground in response.

Click!

Pulled the bolt and aimed at the second devil who hadn't reacted yet and pulled the trigger!

Bang!

After the second devil fell to the ground, the military dog that had been restrained rushed over.

Tang Xu pulled out the dagger at his waist, watched the military dog rushing to bite, and stabbed it into its body with one knife, while Tang Xu was also bitten by the military dog.

Fortunately, although the winter cotton clothes were not thick, they could withstand it for a moment.

Tang Xu used force in his hand, the military dog felt extreme pain and bit even more crazily, Tang Xu couldn't control it and rolled over, one man and one dog rolled into a ball, but Tang Xu didn't have time to kill this military dog, seized the opportunity and threw it away suddenly.

Threw the military dog away.

Then climbed up and quickly ran to the two devil corpses, searched for grenades and ammunition, grabbed a rifle, and immediately wanted to leave.

And the military dog with the dagger stuck in it still wanted to rush over, Tang Xu took the devil's rifle bayonet and stabbed it.

Stabbed the military dog again.

Scaring it into retreating, and at this time the devils from another direction also chased over.

Bang! Bang!

Tang Xu quickly hid behind a tree, then loaded the devil's rifle he had just grabbed, and poked his body out.

Bang——!

Didn't hit.

But it also scared the two devils into hiding behind trees, and Tang Xu took this opportunity to quicken his pace and run into the depths of the woods.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With the replenished ammunition, Tang Xu also began to counterattack.

For a time, the sound of shooting at each other echoed constantly in the mountain forest.

Until evening.

Two gunshots rang out almost simultaneously.

The devil sergeant on the opposite side fell to the ground in response, and Tang Xu also covered his shoulder, the rifle in his hand fell to the ground, and the noisy sounds around became more and more.

The main force of the devils had already surrounded them.

Tang Xu took a deep breath and climbed up with difficulty; after a day of Mobile Corps Commander warfare, his physical strength was also exhausted.

The rifle and bullets he had captured before were also used up, and now only three grenades were left on him.

Put the grenade pin on his finger,

Walked toward the north with difficulty; he must find a place to hide and treat his wound, otherwise, he wouldn't be killed by the devils, but would bleed to death or freeze to death due to lack of physical strength.

But such a situation was simply not enough to support Tang Xu in running away.

Snowflakes began to drift in the sky at some point.

The pursuers behind were also getting closer and closer.

But Tang Xu's footsteps were getting heavier and heavier, the wound was constantly bleeding, soaking the cotton clothes, and soon frozen by the cold temperature... his body temperature was rapidly losing.

Thump.

Tang Xu had already fallen to the ground, using his remaining consciousness to press the grenade against his body.

The scene in front of his eyes gradually blurred.

Then he fell into darkness.

Returning to the game main interface, many uncomfortable feelings disappeared instantly, Tang Xu immediately woke up, looked at the main interface, and sighed:

"Still gone."

"I don't know if the last grenade was useful."

"It's a pity I can't see it."

When his consciousness was blurred, Tang Xu put his hand with the grenade pin under his body, and stuck the grenade on his clothes.

Once turned over by the devils, the grenade might explode.

Of course, it is also possible that those devils are extremely careful, and only his corpse was blown up.

But no matter what, he couldn't see it.

Tang Xu sighed:

"Fighting is death, not fighting is also death."

Tang Xu returned to the partition page of Tian Sha Live Broadcast, looked at those live broadcast rooms and said:

"Is there anyone who has persisted until now and hasn't died and restarted?"

"Basically everyone has restarted, right?"

No way.

It's really that the Japanese side did it too thoroughly.

Since 1937, Japan has implemented "group tribes" here, relocating a large number of people to isolate the Anti-Japanese United Army from the common people.

Coupled with the empire in Europe sweeping through various countries, Japan is also constantly increasing troops.

Now the Anti-Japanese United Army has already moved toward the Soviet border.

Tang Xu watched the forum for a while and also saw the situation of the Anti-Japanese United Army in other live broadcast rooms, which was also not very optimistic.

But there is no way, individual strength is negligible.

After watching for a while, Tang Xu started the game again and chose the camp of the Anti-Japanese United Army.

On the other side.

Also within the Republic region, but it is the Red base here.

Streamer Jiang Xuan, who was randomly assigned the identity of the Red side, was flipping through the European news of this period in the game forum, as well as the intelligence collected in the game.

Jiang Xuan in the live broadcast room looked at the situation in Europe on the forum and couldn't help but sigh to the Blue Star netizens in the live broadcast room:

"This point in time is really..."

"Too difficult."

The time point of 1940 is exactly when the empire is raging in Europe; it just finished blitzing the Poland Federation not long ago and is about to blitz the France Federation.

One can imagine.

Once the France Federation is successfully blitzed.

The Republic's situation will be even more difficult.

After all, Japan and the empire are in the same camp; the empire in this period almost swept through Europe, which must bring considerable confidence to Japan in the same camp.

By then, it will be the two most difficult years for the Republic.

Not to mention anything else.

According to some discussions seen in the game forum, one can infer the situation in the Northeast region.

Since 1939, the influence brought by the empire.

Made Japan constantly increase troops in the Northeast, and in a short time, it increased several times.

The Anti-Japanese United Army that could originally carry out Mobile Corps Commander warfare was also in an extremely difficult situation, and many troops were forced to hide in the Soviet Federation, waiting for a counterattack.

The NPCs in the game naturally don't know the future.

So these two years are also the two most difficult years for all "Earth" countries.

No way.

The empire in this period is really too fierce.

Thinking that the empire will blitz France in a long time, and then sweep through Europe, Japan doesn't know what the reaction will be, but it is thought that it will also increase troops on a large scale.

Because it can be seen from the Northeast region.

It's just that it is currently being held back by the Anti-Japanese United Army and hasn't gone south yet.

And in such an environment.

When the whole world doesn't know how to win, the Red side's "On Protracted War" came out, which boosted the confidence of many people for a while. Jiang Xuan was chatting with the friends in the live broadcast room,

Suddenly received the order to fight.

Very quickly, the troops he was in set off, and Jiang Xuan understood the ins and outs of the matter and explained to the Blue Star netizens in the live broadcast room: "Now in the Republic, the national anti-Japanese sentiment is low."

"It is mainly influenced by Europe; after all, looking at it from the perspective of people in this era, it is a completely desperate feeling, not knowing how to win."

"Currently, within the Blue side, there are many voices of the surrender faction, which has affected the domestic situation."

"The Red side decided to launch a large-scale raid to break the little devils' blockade and boost the people's confidence."

"We are currently going to destroy the railways occupied by the little devils."

Jiang Xuan was saying this, not knowing yet.

This campaign was later called the Hundred Regiments Offensive...,
