Chapter 991 Soldier in wartime, civilian in peacetime
Nan Huan suddenly realized why everyone had to wear masks when they saw the battlefield ahead.
Recalling when Junior Brother Wei got out of the car, he not only handed him a mask, but also a helmet and a long gown.
Although she was somewhat puzzled by his actions, she obediently put on the clothes.
Only now did Nan realize that their team had to wear masks during battles so that others could not see their true faces.
Jiang Wenming quickly put on his mask, pulled out the car keys, held his gun, and then looked at the puzzled expression on Nan Huan's face.
He explained simply, “Don’t ask why. In wartime we are soldiers, in peacetime we are civilians. The fewer people who know this, the more smoothly we can carry out our missions.”
"Understood." Nan replied and got out of the car.
The two closed the car door, and Jiang Wenming pressed the electronic lock. After locking the door, he ran towards the bombed-out path.
Zhu Hewei stared wide-eyed at the two people getting out of the car, but due to blood loss, his vision was already blurry.
His heart was pounding, and he gripped the gun he had captured from the Japanese soldiers tightly in his hand, his finger already on the trigger. With the slightest movement, a bullet would whistle out.
Just as he was about to fire, his gaze suddenly fell on the helmets, vests, and familiar masks of the two approaching figures.
These characteristics made him realize instantly that these two people were not enemies, but were with the people who saved them.
He quickly released his fingers and shifted the gun barrel slightly to avoid accidentally injuring his own men.
Jiang Wenming saw that the person standing by the roadside was unsteady and was wearing the same equipment as himself, so he guessed that it was Jiang Jiyun who gave them the equipment.
Just as Jiang Wenming was watching the man swaying by the roadside, a man suddenly appeared behind him, brandishing a rifle barrel with a bayonet and thrusting it at the man.
Jiang Wenming quickly raised his gun and fired several shots in that direction.
When Zhu Hewei saw the person opposite him firing at him, he knew in his heart that he was in deep trouble and thought that he might really die here this time.
So he closed his eyes and awaited death.
Just when he thought it was all over, he suddenly felt someone support him.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw Nan looking at him with concern, asking, "Are you alright? Are you seriously injured?"
Zhu Hewei looked blankly at Nan Huan beside him, then turned to look at Jiang Wenming and the corpse on the ground behind him.
His mind was still reeling from the terrifying moment just now, and he was momentarily unable to process what had happened.
Nan angrily said, "What are you spacing out for? You almost died under a bayonet just now."
"Thank you, I was just a little distracted. You're still over there."
"You..." Jiang Wenming's words were interrupted by a loud explosion.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
The explosion was deafening; the ground trembled violently, and the entire mountain shook.
Jiang Wenming and the others lost their balance and fell to the ground.
Jiang Wenming struggled to lift his head and looked at the house not far away.
Flames soared into the sky, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the air, as if it would swallow the entire sky.
Jiang Wenming gritted his teeth and used all his strength to struggle to his feet.
His body swayed precariously from the ground shaking, but he still ran wildly in that direction regardless.
Along the way, stones and pebbles rained down on him, but he did not stop.
He had only one thought in his mind: to get to Jiang Jiyun's side as soon as possible.
Nan watched as her uncle desperately rushed towards that dangerous place, and she was extremely anxious.
He also got up from the ground, ignoring the pain from the stones hitting him, and followed closely behind his uncle.
Because he knew that his uncle's destination was where his junior brother Xiaotian was, he couldn't let his uncle go on the adventure alone.
After giving emergency treatment to the injured comrades in the house, Jiang Jiyun looked at the listless crowd and took out some medicinal powder from her body.
When those people were off guard, he sprinkled the water on those who were listless, causing them to fall into a temporary coma, before safely sending these unconscious comrades into the space.
There were still dangers here, and Jiang Jiyun thought that he absolutely could not leave these wounded comrades here unattended.
After settling the wounded, she immediately went to collect the comrades who had already sacrificed their lives into her space.
We'll wait until we leave this dangerous place before we can finally lay these heroes to rest.
After finishing all this, Jiang Jiyun and Xiao Tian didn't have time to rest. They continued to clean up the battlefield, leaving no corner untouched.
As they approached the house that Jiang Jiyun had set on fire, they suddenly heard a loud shout: "あなたたちは私たちと一绪に灭びましょう!" (You will all perish with us!)
The sudden shout startled both Jiang Jiyun and Xiao Tian.
They held up their guns and saw a Japanese soldier with a ferocious face standing not far away, glaring at them angrily.
However, due to the language barrier, Jiang Jiyun and Xiaotian could not understand what the Japanese soldier was howling at all.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two crisp gunshots rang out.
Then came another loud "bang!"
Xiao Tian and Jiang Jiyun, from two different locations, simultaneously pulled the trigger.
A bloody hole instantly appeared between the Japanese soldier's eyebrows, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
At the same time, the Japanese soldier was also shot twice in the chest. His body shuddered violently, and then he fell straight to the ground, where he remained motionless.
After firing their shots, the two men did not relax their guard. Instead, they quickly looked around and cautiously observed the surrounding situation.
Just then, a loud "BOOM!" rang out, and a powerful wave of heat from the explosion rushed towards Jiang Jiyun from not far away.
Before Jiang Jiyun could react, she was violently thrown away by the heat wave.
Her body arced through the air before crashing heavily to the ground, her helmet flying off with the impact and rolling to the side.
The moment he heard the explosion, Xiao Tian sped up and ran towards Jiang Jiyun.
But the explosions showed no signs of stopping, one after another, continuously blasting around them.
Xiao Tian was extremely anxious. He ran as fast as he could, wanting to get to Jiang Jiyun's side as soon as possible.
However, the explosion was so powerful that every step he took forward was extremely difficult.
Finally, Xiao Tian managed to run to the side of the unconscious Jiang Jiyun.
Before he could even catch his breath, the two of them were instantly engulfed in flames and smoke.
