Girls und War

A girl from the Eagle Area immediately leaned over and shot down, but was hit by several shots from Xia Shu and then retreated.

At this time, the City Alliance also came to the front of the slope and fired several shots at this side without hesitation.

Xia Shu exchanged a few shots with her, and Anna finally slid to the bottom of the slope and accidentally fell.

Seeing this, Xia Shu immediately reached out to her.

Anna grabbed Xia Shu's hand, gritted her teeth and climbed up from the ground, and was carried by Xia Shu behind the shelter.

Seeing this, the city alliance shouted, "Chase them!"

Then he jumped down from the slope.

Several other girls from Eagle District followed closely behind.

Xia Shu and Anna retreated from a pile of rocks farther away and shot back.

Soon, they arrived at the end of the road, a cliff above the river.

Xia Shu glanced down the cliff, turned back and shouted to Anna, "Jump!"

Hearing this, Anna followed Xia Shu and jumped off the cliff without hesitation.

When the City Alliance arrived with other girls, they just saw the two people splashing a lot of water on the river surface, and then they sank into the river and disappeared.

The alliance in the city was so angry that they had to vent their anger by firing a few shots at the river.

At this time, another girl appeared from the top of the slope and shouted, "Teacher! It's the reinforcements from the snow area! We can't hold on any longer!"

The City Alliance gritted their teeth and could only yell, "Retreat! Plan B!"

Then he took the remaining people and retreated into the distance through a side road.

Meanwhile, the small group of troops from the Snow District who were fighting with the Eagle District suddenly saw a drone flying down from the sky, so they quickly looked for cover to hide.

Then, a series of explosions sounded in the mountains, and a large amount of white metal dust spread instantly.

In the white smoke, it is difficult for both friends and enemies to distinguish.

So the Eagle District troops took the opportunity to evacuate the area.

756. The Underworld Chasing Natsuki

After Xia Shu jumped into the water with Anna, they quickly dived to the bottom.

Then, at the bottom of the river, he held his breath and swam forward along the underwater undercurrent.

She could feel Anna beside her, grabbing the corner of her clothes and swimming forward with her.

Xia Shu didn't know whether Anna was not a good swimmer or was afraid that they would get separated, so she reached out and grabbed the corner of her clothes.

But Xia Shu had no complaints. He even reached out and held Anna's arm, swimming forward with her.

The undercurrent at the bottom of the water was very turbulent. After a while, it felt like we had advanced hundreds of meters.

Xia Shu held his breath until his vision turned red and his head became dizzy, then he surfaced slightly to take a breath.

But at this time, Xia Shu felt that his arms were getting heavier and heavier, as if Anna behind him was gradually losing her strength.

Xia Shu floated on the water and looked back, only to see Anna sinking underwater, with a line of blood forming a long line on the river surface.

Xia Shu's heart tightened, and he quickly swam behind Anna and dragged her up from behind.

After Anna surfaced, she closed her eyes and seemed to have lost consciousness.

Xia Shu quickly swam with her to the shore and tried hard to drag her ashore.

By this time, the surroundings were completely unrecognizable. Xia Shu looked up at the cliffs above him, and after observing that there were no enemy troops, he carried Anna to a flat spot on the shore and set her down.

Then Xia Shu first observed Anna's injuries - she was shot in the back, and no vital organs were hit, but the bleeding would not stop, and it was obvious that she needed to stop the bleeding.

But what is more important now is that Anna has drowned and has lost her breathing and heartbeat.

The situation was urgent, so Xia Shu had to give her artificial respiration first to prevent her from choking to death from the water.

So Xia Shu quickly lifted up Anna's neck, then reached into Anna's mouth and straightened her tongue.

Then he pressed on Anna's chest several times to squeeze out some of the water in her chest cavity.

After the water in Anna's lungs overflowed, Xia Shu pinched Anna's nose, lifted her chin, and blew a long breath into Anna's mouth with his mouth tightly fitting.

Seeing that Anna's lungs were inflated, Xia Shu raised his hand and pressed hard on Anna's lungs, squeezing out the air inside, forming a breathing cycle.

After repeating this breathing cycle several times, Xia Shu pressed on Anna's chest for a while.

Then he listened to Anna's heartbeat and breathing.

At this time, Anna's heartbeat had recovered, but her breathing was still weak.

Xia Shu continued to work hard, checking for tongue swallowing, and then performed artificial respiration for several minutes, an average of more than ten to twenty times a minute.

As a ball of water in her lungs suddenly sprayed out of Anna's mouth into Xia Shu's mouth, Anna suddenly tilted her head and started coughing violently.

"Breathe, breathe." Xia Shu hugged her back with his hands, helped her breathe, and whispered in her ear.

Anna coughed and breathed in air in big gulps. Although Anna was still in a semi-comatose state, her instinct for survival had saved her from the danger of sudden death.

Then Xia Shu seized the opportunity, turned Anna's body to the side, and tore off her clothes forcefully, exposing the gunshot wound on her back.

The wound had penetrated deep into Anna's body, but did not pass through her body.

Judging from the blood flow, there was no broken artery.

Xia Shu didn't know when the gunshot wound appeared, or it could have been anytime. But these things were not important. What was important was that Xia Shu had no way to treat this kind of injury under the circumstances.

She could only do her best to stop Anna's bleeding.

So Xia Shu took out the hemostatic cotton from his medical kit, tore open the package, and then stuffed the cotton cloth into Anna's wound.

Anna shuddered all over and began to twitch subconsciously.

Xia Shu quickly hugged her and pushed her to the ground.

After a while, Anna gradually calmed down. Xia Shu observed the condition of the wound again.

After being filled with blood, the hemostatic quilt has fully expanded and blocked the wound.

However, this condition cannot last long, and blood transfusion and medical treatment must be carried out as soon as possible.

So Xia Shu simply bandaged Anna with gauze and then checked his communication equipment.

The result was terrible. The communication equipment was soaked with river water and water could be poured out when shaken.

If this still works, it would not violate common sense, but violate physics.

Xia Shu frowned and did not throw these things away directly. Instead, he removed the batteries and put the communication equipment back into the bag.

Then Xia Shu turned around, picked up Anna by the waist, and took her to the depths of the valley.

Although Xia Shu had heard the sound of the gunfight before, he knew that Xuequ had realized that something was wrong and sent troops to rescue them.

But she didn't know what the situation was like in the exchange of fire, or whether the City Alliance was still chasing them.

Just in case, Xia Shu had to find a safe place to hide and then talk about rescue.

When Xia Shu and Anna found a relatively hidden cave, the sky gradually became gloomy.

Xia Shu estimated that a heavy rain was about to fall, so after putting Anna down in the cave, he planned to find some dead wood and start a fire.

But just as Xia Shu put Anna down, she felt Anna grabbing the corner of her clothes, as if she didn't want her to leave.

So Xia Shu lowered his head and said gently, "I'll go get some firewood and be back soon."

Anna raised her head, and there was no sign of clarity in her cloudy eyes.

However, under Xia Shu's gentle comfort, she gradually let go of his hand and fell asleep.

Xia Shu adjusted her body position again so that she would not lie down and put pressure on the wound.

Then he walked out of the cave, cut some dead wood nearby, and carried it back into the cave.

As soon as we came back, heavy rain fell from the sky.

Xia Shu breathed a sigh of relief, built a pile of dead wood, and then used the gauze and flint in the first aid kit to start the fire.

Seeing that the fire in front of the fire was burning brightly, Xia Shu picked up Anna again and gently placed her next to the fire.

At this time, Xia Shu felt that Anna's body was cold and without any temperature.

After thinking for a moment, she quickly took off Anna's wet clothes.

Then he took off all his clothes and put them next to the fire. He hugged Anna again and used his body temperature to keep her warm.

She kept rubbing Anna's palms and soles with her hands. She rubbed them diligently by the fire for a long time, and Anna's body gradually became soft and warm.

At this time, the clothes closest to the fire had also been dried, so Xia Shu wrapped Anna in the dry clothes and held her in his arms.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was unknown when help would arrive.

Xia Shu lowered his head and looked at Anna's pale sleeping face again, then sighed softly.

757. Your next sentence is, can't you let her finish her words?

The heavy rain outside the cave was pale and pouring down.

Xia Shu was inside the cave, holding poor Anna and warming her body with his.

Xia Shu also tried to dismantle the communication equipment that was soaked in water and placed it next to the fire to dry it.

However, after reassembling it and adjusting it, only a rustling sound could be heard from it. It seemed difficult to restore its original function.

Anna slowly woke up amidst the rustling sounds of a series of machines. She raised her head in Xia Shu's arms and looked at her with weak eyes.

Xia Shu immediately stopped what he was doing, smiled at her, and said, "Are you awake? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Anna had just opened her mouth and said "I..." when she suddenly burst into coughing and coughed up some sticky blood.

Seeing Anna's face full of pain, Xia Shu explained, "You were shot in the back and drowned. It's normal for your lungs to feel uncomfortable now."

As he said this, he gently wiped away the dirt she coughed up.

Anna showed a grateful expression and whispered "thank you", then frowned and said, "My chest hurts."

Xia Shu looked down and saw that Anna's chest was not under any pressure and her skin looked healthy, so he said, "Maybe some bones were fractured when I pressed on her during CPR just now. It's okay."

Anna nodded and said weakly, "Thank you."

"It's okay." Xia Shu tucked her in with his clothes to make her feel more warm, and then said, "Rest for a while. Once the rescue team arrives, you can leave the battlefield and take a vacation."

Hearing this, Anna closed her eyes and rested for a while, then said in an apologetic tone, "Sorry."

Natsuki smiled, knowing why Anna felt sorry.

This operation was originally a joint operation between the Snow District and the Flower District, but it ended up being ambushed by the Eagle District, and Xia Shu almost died on the spot.

Whether in public or private, the snow district has certain responsibilities.

And Anna chose to take this responsibility on herself.

So Xia Shu touched her forehead and said, "You are not responsible. This is how the battlefield is. Bullets don't have eyes. If someone dies from a gun, it means she is unlucky."

Anna took a deep breath, as if enduring the pain in her body.

After a while, she replied, "But I was the one who requested the joint operation. I thought this would allow the Flower and Snow Districts to form a new alliance to fight against the powerful enemy, the Eagle District. But if you die here, the alliance will turn into hatred. If that happens..."

As she spoke, she started coughing violently again.

Xia Shu patted her back gently, trying to calm her down. Then he added, "I'm fine, aren't I? Don't worry, the alliance will continue to form. This failed operation was just an accident and won't affect the overall situation. You're not in a good position to talk right now, so you should rest."

Hearing this, Anna shook her head slightly, as if she would not be willing to give up until the words were made clear.

After resting for a while, Anna gathered enough strength before looking at Xia Shu with her aquamarine eyes. She spoke softly, "I'm really scared. I'm afraid of causing you to misunderstand me. This isn't the situation I want. I'm also afraid that you'd died in the previous battle. I'd regret that for the rest of my life..."

Anna seemed to be exhausting a year's worth of language in one breath. She took a breath and continued, "If I really had to choose between the two of us, I'd rather be the victim. Because I really, really..."

As he spoke, he coughed again.

Xia Shu signaled her to stop talking and said that he knew everything.

This coughing fit was so intense that Anna felt as if she was going to cough out her lungs.
