Chapter 127 Heavy Artillery Bombardment!

The mountain wasn't high, but it covered a large area. Chen Zhan grabbed Ye Ningzhen and quickly darted into the mountain. Holding someone didn't affect their speed at all.

It was much faster than the birds and beasts behind it.

Then came
"boom!!!"

"Boom~!!"

Continuous explosions, relentless explosions, intense bombardment, overwhelming force, a torrential downpour.

The bombardment shattered the hillside where the two had just been standing. And that wasn't all; the artillery fire continued to escalate, advancing relentlessly, seemingly aiming to level the hilltop.

A special shell was fired into the sky, rising from a distant mountaintop before crashing down on Chen Zhan and his companion.

"Shh!"

It was originally just a faint light, as the sun was about to rise.

The mountaintop was dark, and nothing could be seen in the distance. A burst of intense light erupted in the sky, and in a flash, it seemed as if a white sun had appeared out of nowhere.

The forest where the two were located was illuminated as if it were daytime, so bright that it was almost white, and every detail was clearly visible.

Chen Zhan felt a gaze fixed upon him, as if needles were pricking his skin, and his hair stood on end.

If you increase the speed a little more, change the direction, from going straight ahead to going left.

Ye Ningzhen gripped Chen Zhan tightly with both hands, trying to lighten his burden. Her face was pressed against Chen Zhan's chest, his heart pounding violently and shaking wildly. The intense beating of his heart even made Ye Ningzhen's ears go numb.

I had only run a few dozen steps when a new round of artillery fire came.

They even predicted Chen Zhan's previous position as he continued forward, which was followed by another round of fierce bombardment. If he didn't change direction, he would definitely perish in the sea of ​​fire.

Chen Zhan had already run several hundred meters when he could still feel the vibrations beneath his feet, the air waves, and the flying shrapnel.

Using this force, the speed increased, and the vehicle constantly changed positions, quickly rounding a hill.

The thorny feeling of being watched from behind disappeared.

The artillery fire couldn't reach them anymore.

After entering a cave, Chen Zhan put Ye Ningzhen down and gasped for breath, trying to absorb the nutrients from the fresh air.

The sprint just now had all my muscles and bones tense up, and my speed had reached its limit, squeezing out all the nutrients from my blood.

He caught his breath for a moment, then stopped.

Once his breathing calmed down, he had mastered the art of internal organ training, and his cardiopulmonary function far surpassed that of an ordinary person.

It can erupt in an instant, but it can also recover quickly.

That's how they could escape at that speed; an ordinary person would be completely obliterated.

The power of widespread heavy artillery bombardment is beyond human capabilities.

No wonder many martial arts practitioners in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China became disheartened, retired from the martial arts world, and took their kung fu to their graves.

Faced with firearms, a lifetime of practicing boxing and martial arts is nothing more than two gunshots.

I just experienced that firsthand.

Even with his strong will, he experienced great self-doubt during his escape.

No matter how strong your boxing skills or how high your kung fu are.

Can it defy fate?
In that boundless, destructive energy, he was like a small boat, swaying with the wind, and could be overturned at any moment.

All they can do is run away; there's no point in even trying to fight back!

Once I calmed down, I felt a sharp pain in my back. Although the two barrages didn't hit me directly, the shrapnel, rocks, and trees scattered around caused me quite a few cuts and scratches.

He turned around and saw Ye Ningzhen, who was being held in his arms. She was not injured, but her eyes were filled with tears.

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, but she didn't wipe them away, only staring at Chen Zhan.

"Why are you crying?" Chen Zhan asked with a smile.

"You can still laugh? You've really messed things up for me this time." Ye Ningzhen gave a bitter, beautiful smile.

"What's the use of crying? Besides, we're not at our wits' end yet. Help me pull them all out."

Chen Zhan turned around, his back to Ye Ningzhen. She was always strong, but seeing the condition of Chen Zhan's back, she couldn't help but continue to weep silently. Chen Zhan's back was covered with shrapnel, densely packed and tightly packed, crisscrossed with bullets of all sizes.

Scattered twigs and stones also embedded themselves in the flesh.

There were more rocks and branches in the explosion, but they weren't sharp enough to easily pierce Chen Zhan's muscles.

Not only his back, but also his legs and buttocks. Most of his clothes were destroyed, with different pieces embedded in his flesh, arranged very closely, which was disgusting and terrifying.

No wonder Ye Ningzhen cried; as soon as she entered the cave, she saw the terrible state of Chen Zhan's back.

She was not a weak woman; she immediately suppressed her emotions and carefully helped Chen Zhan remove the shrapnel.

They were also amazed by the sheer terror of Chen Zhan's physical body; the shrapnel from the explosion could only penetrate the flesh and not get past the bone.

Many shrapnel fragments penetrated less than half an inch into the flesh.

Ye Ningzhen was too cautious, which made her very slow. Chen Zhan started cleaning his legs himself, and with a twist of his hand, he grabbed a handful of shards.

"Ningzhen, hurry up!"

"We don't have much time. The Japanese will either search the mountains or set them on fire. If we lose a major general or a major general, or if we lose important supplies, they will definitely send out a large army to fight to the death."

The more critical the situation, the clearer Chen Zhan's mind became. Since he had already used weapons of mass destruction, he would not simply withdraw.

Tens of thousands of people sealing off the mountain and setting it on fire are absolutely inevitable.

Ye Ningzhen hadn't thought of this yet. She was worried about Chen Zhan's injury and was too shocked by what had happened in such a short time to recover.

After listening to Chen Zhan's words, Ye Ningzhen paused for a moment, then sped up and quickly cleaned up the mess.

As the shrapnel was pulled out, a lot of blood flowed from Chen Zhan's back. His back muscles twitched, and the bleeding quickly stopped.

Although the injury looked terrible, with countless shrapnel bullets piercing the skin like a sieve, it wasn't actually that serious.

An explosion of this magnitude failed to penetrate the Iron Bones' defenses.

If Ye Ningzhen didn't clean it up quickly, the [self-healing] effect would kick in, fusing the shrapnel into his flesh, making things even more troublesome.
Ye Ningzhen, however, was shot in the waist. Coupled with her frantic running and killing several people, her injuries were now more severe, and she had lost a lot of blood.

Previously, under pressure, adrenaline was released rapidly, which helped me hold on.

When I relaxed, I immediately felt dizzy and weak.

Chen Zhan supported her, saying, "You rest for a while. I'll go out and investigate. When I come back, I'll take you out of the mountain."

Ye Ningzhen didn't know how Chen Zhan planned to get her out of the mountains, but Chen Zhan's words reassured her. She felt a warm current in her heart and nodded in agreement.

After leaving the cave, they moved a large rock to block most of the entrance.

The monkeys climbed along the mountainside, scaling the rocks, and soon reached the summit.

Although the mountain was not high, the view was sufficient. His eyesight was amazing, and he could see Japanese soldiers all over the mountain from afar. They were searching the mountain, but they did not set the mountain on fire.

It's not that I don't want to, but in Northeast China during winter, after a snowfall, it's difficult to start a fire, and it spreads too slowly.

Chen Zhan glanced at the progress of the Japanese soldiers' search of the mountains. The mountains were not very large, but they stretched for hundreds of miles, so they wouldn't be able to find them in a short time.

When we got down to the middle of the mountain, we saw a lot of animals running around wildly.

The artillery fire that had just struck the mountain had woken up the hibernating bears, and the forest was in chaos. Chen Zhan didn't bother with any animals he didn't want to mess with. He moved swiftly and caught a sika deer with antlers among the chaotic animal group.

Among them are moose, bear, and roe deer. Although bear paws and bear gallbladders are quite good, they are difficult to handle and cannot be cooked, so we have to let them go.

Decades later, protected animals are brutally murdered.

Deer antler and deer blood are both highly nourishing.

At this point, he didn't care about the dirt anymore. There were no utensils in the cave, so he simply used a knife to cut open the sika deer's neck. Chen Zhan drank a few mouthfuls; it tasted a bit fishy, ​​but he could bear it.

He pulled the deer neck to Ye Ningzhen's side: "Drink up, have a few sips, then we'll leave the mountain."

Ye Ningzhen didn't mince words. This was a critical moment. Then, fresh blood gushed into her mouth, a strong, fishy taste accompanied by warmth flowing into her throat.

I forced myself to hold it in and gulped down several large mouthfuls.

Chen Zhan cut off the deer antlers, but the sika deer had already died from excessive blood loss.
