Chapter 627 The Feeling of Being Abandoned
"Of course. Our people are all educated, qualified, and high-level fighters! Leave this matter to us!"
Yuan Shuai’s flattery made Hami melon pat his chest proudly.
All the brothers in the Black Wolf Army were happy.
Of course they can make a sandbox map.
But they also want to take this opportunity to have a good rest.
If they have already done their job, what are the British troops for?
Yuan Shuai and others quickly found a place to sleep and rest, leaving the British soldiers busy making sand table maps.
Fortunately, the British soldiers were numerous, and many of them were quite familiar with the sand table maps.
Therefore, the British Army also has enough manpower to carry out replacement and handover shifts.
But even so, the British soldiers were busy until breakfast time the next morning before they finished all the sand table maps.
In order to prevent the map from being blown up by Japanese planes, Hamiguwa had someone draw the map on paper, and even drew two copies, one of which was given to Yuan Shuai.
"Well done, our British army!"
This time, Hami melon held its head high and chest puffed out proudly.
"Well done, it's a great job. Brothers, let's give a round of applause to the British army!"
Yuan Shuai first gave the Hami melon a thumbs up, then applauded.
All the national army brothers applauded.
Looking at the applause from everyone around them, all the British soldiers were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling for a long time.
Yuan Shuai smiled even more proudly.
These guys really like being flattered.
It seems I need to take more photos in the future.
However, Hami melon continued.
"General Yuan, the puppet army is too cunning. The entire Zhacheng is surrounded by puppet army positions, almost completely encircling the entire Zhacheng! It is almost impossible to break in! Otherwise, let's scout again and see if we can take a detour!"
"Take a detour? How can we take a detour? If we take a detour, we won't be able to take away all these heavy weapons! Without heavy weapons, with only a few of us, if we are surrounded by the Japanese, how many of us will be able to return?"
Hearing this, Hami melon blushed with embarrassment and nodded.
"This is indeed a problem."
"Don't you have a radio? You can contact the people at the base camp to come over for support!"
"I tried to contact him, but he was too far away to talk on the phone, so I could only send him a text message. But I never received a call back!"
Hami melon gritted his teeth in grievance.
It seems like I have been abandoned.
Because when they came before, their superiors had told them that once they rescued the prisoners, they should send them a message immediately and they would arrange for someone to come and pick them up.
But now, his signalman has been sending telegrams continuously, but unfortunately he has not received any reply.
Yuan Shuai saw that he was feeling aggrieved, reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him.
"It's okay. Even if they don't come to support us, we will find a way to send you over!"
General Yuan spoke in English, and all the British soldiers were filled with gratitude after hearing it.
Yuan Shuai took out a cigarette and smoked it while looking at the sand table map.
After a long while, he asked.
"Have you found a way?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Yuan Shuai, don't keep me in suspense. If you have a solution, just tell me. If even you can't do it, then I guess I can only take a detour!"
Du Shao hurriedly urged.
"Report, the base camp called, the base camp finally called!"
At this time, a communications soldier from Hami melon came running over with a telegram.
"Damn it, the call finally came!"
Hami melon quickly picked up the translated telegram and read it.
"Stay where you are and wait for rescue!"
"Damn it, I've been waiting for so many days, and this is all I've heard!"
Hami melon was so angry that he tore the telegram into pieces and threw it into the air.
Many other British soldiers were so angry that they cursed.
Everyone's face was filled with anger.
The brothers in the National Army also looked at each other in confusion.
Wang Shuncheng pulled Yuan Shuai aside and whispered.
"Boss, it looks like we won't be able to get reinforcements from the British anytime soon. We might have to find another way! Why don't we just head south?"
Yuan Shuai smiled bitterly.
"Do you think I don't want to go south? If we go south, the British troops will definitely not follow us. Even if they take a detour, they will go to find their main force. By then, how many of us will be left? Moreover, the Japanese may be waiting for us in the south with all preparations!"
"You are good at speaking, right? Just talk to them nicely, don't try to fool them!"
"I...I'll try, but it may not work!"
Yuan Shuai gritted his teeth helplessly and walked back to Hami melon.
At this time, Hami Melon stood aside, with his hands on his hips, looking in the direction of their base camp, his eyes full of flames of anger.
Yuan Shuai handed him a cigarette, but he didn't even take it.
Yuan Shuai could only light the cigarette himself, take a leisurely puff, and then continue speaking.
"How about this, let's go scout and see if we can take a detour!"
Hami melon still didn't say anything, obviously he was hurt too badly.
Yuan Shuai could only turn around and leave, yelling at Wang Shuncheng.
"You arrange for people to scout the route, and the artillery will stay behind to prevent the Japanese from launching a surprise attack from the ground. The anti-aircraft artillery positions should be ready to face the Japanese aircraft bombing at any time!"
"Yes!"
Wang Shuncheng quickly turned around and tried to arrange manpower.
"and many more!"
At this time, Hami melon came back to his senses and said towards here.
"We are brothers in life and death, so of course we should arrange people to conduct reconnaissance!"
At this time, Hami melon cannot put all its hopes on reinforcements.
From now on, if he wants to go back alive, he may have to follow Yuan Shuai's arrangements.
Only in this way can they continue to live.
If you die, how can you go back? Even if you take your ashes back with you, no one will take them back for you.
The team quickly sent out scouts and spread out to scout to the south and west.
Of course, the south wanted to find the main force of the National Army.
The west is naturally the direction of the British military base.
However, on the way to the British base camp, the Japanese puppet army had set up many traps and minefields.
Several British scouts were killed by booby traps and mines.
This forced the British troops responsible for reconnaissance to turn back.
When all the British troops heard the news, they were so angry that they gritted their teeth and cursed for a long time.
When Wang Shuncheng's men were scouting in the south, they did not encounter many traps and minefields.
By nightfall, all the Kuomintang scouts who had gone out returned safely.
"Boss, there are no Japanese or puppet troops within 50 kilometers to the south! There are no traps or minefields! But we can't be sure if there are Japanese or puppet troops in the distance ahead!"
Yuan Shuai nodded and looked at the Hami melon beside him and said.
"Hami, how about we go south first, and when we get to a safe area, we'll go around in the direction of your base camp, what do you think?"
"You kid must want to go find your main force. Will you send us off then?"
Hami melon's face was filled with worry.
