Chapter 152 How to Find Water at Night
While panting, Yuan Shuai pushed him up and made him sit on the ground. Then he took out several sets of clothes from the Japanese backpack on his back and said.
"It's cold, and you've sweated so much that your clothes are soaked. If you don't change your clothes before going to bed, you'll easily catch a cold or have a fever. Hurry up and change your clothes! Brothers, hurry up and change your clothes. Change all the wet clothes and put on dry clothes to avoid catching a cold or having a fever!"
The monkey could only grit his teeth, take off his clothes, and start changing into the devil's clothes.
Lu Huahua and Jiang Zhengwu also said as they quickly changed their clothes.
"General Yuan is right. We have already made it out. We have to keep living. We cannot cause unnecessary non-combat casualties due to colds. Everyone change clothes! Put on dry clothes!"
"I won't change. If you want to change, you can change. Anyway, I'd rather die than change the devil's clothes!"
Someone in the crowd suddenly said something.
Then many people stopped moving.
"Damn it, I won't even change into the devil's clothes!"
Yuan Shuai pointed at Biaozi, who was the first to object, and shouted.
"Shut up, this is an order, and soldiers should obey orders!"
"I'm not your business!"
This sentence made everyone look at Yuan Shuai and Biaozi in shock.
In the eyes of many people, Biaozi is a subordinate of Yuan Shuai's Black Wolf Army.
But in fact, Biaozi is not the one. Biaozi is the one who replaced Heilang.
Yuan Shuai could only raise his voice and shout helplessly.
"Damn it, it's up to you to change or not. If you don't want to change, get out of here and don't follow me to fight the Japanese!"
Hearing this, some people who had stopped moving hurriedly continued to change their clothes.
After all, they all knew that if it weren't for Yuan Shuai, they would have died long ago.
If it weren’t for General Yuan, they wouldn’t have been able to kill so many devils!
If it weren’t for General Yuan, they would never have been able to break out of the Japanese encirclement!
However, none of the brothers in Biaozi's class changed into the Japanese clothes.
Yuan Shuai ignored him and changed his clothes before starting to check the blankets for his brothers.
There was a blanket in the devil's backpack.
After putting on their clothes, the soldiers curled up on the ground, wrapped in the Japanese blankets, and slept to rest.
Because they were too tired, the soldiers closed their eyes and fell asleep.
Some soldiers did not cover themselves with blankets properly, so Yuan Shuai walked over quietly and helped them cover themselves with blankets.
After covering himself with a blanket, Yuan Shuai walked to the side of the team and started digging the soil with a bayonet.
"Yuan Shuai, what are you doing? Why don't you go to sleep at night and come here to dig a pit? It's in this wilderness, you can just find a place to do it, there's no need to dig a pit!"
At this time, Jiang Zhengwu came over.
Lu Hua followed behind him.
Although they were both extremely tired, neither of them could fall asleep.
After lying down for a while, the two saw Yuan Shuai digging a hole here, and then they got up and walked over.
Yuan Shuai said with a smile.
"I don't have time to dig pores. I need to dig a stove and boil some water for my brothers so they can drink some hot water to warm themselves up after they wake up!"
"Make a fire?!"
The two team leaders looked at each other in astonishment.
They were all veterans, and they were also regiment commanders. The brothers were so cold at night that they didn't dare to light a fire.
Because once a fire is lit, it is possible that the Japanese will be discovered, and then they will be attracted over.
But this guy Yuan Shuai actually wanted to dig a stove to boil water.
Marshal Yuan was so good at commanding battles before, how could he make such a low-level mistake!
"Master Yuan, we'd better stop digging. The Japanese might be looking for us in the middle of the night!"
"Yes, if you light a fire and expose your position and attract the Japanese, you will be in trouble!"
The two team leaders did not blame, but patiently advised.
Of course, if it were their subordinates, they would have started cursing long ago.
After all, Yuan Shuai is their savior.
Yuan Shuai said with a smile.
"I dug a smokeless stove. The Japanese won't be able to see us from so far away!"
“Smokeless stove?!”
The two team leaders looked at each other in astonishment.
"General Yuan, we have led troops to fight for so many years, but we have never seen any smokeless stoves!"
"When you burn fire, there will be fire and smoke. This is the law of nature! How come there is no smoke when you burn fire?"
"Don't bother yourself anymore. You've already changed into dry clothes. Don't sweat again. Our brothers still need you to lead them in fighting the Japanese. Take some time to rest!"
The two team leaders tried to persuade them again earnestly.
Yuan Shuai stopped and said.
"If you really can't sleep, find a way to get some water. My smokeless stove will be ready soon and needs water. How can I boil water without it?"
"Where can we get so much water?"
"Even if we get all the water from the brothers' kettles, it still won't be enough for a pot!"
The two team leaders' faces were full of grievance and complaints.
"I……"
Yuan Shuai wanted to get angry, but thinking of so many people sleeping, he could only lower his voice and curse.
"You have been the leader for so many years, but you can't even find water? Follow me!"
After saying that, Yuan Shuai took them to the foot of the mountain and started walking around.
But after searching for a while, no water source was found.
After all, this is neither a town nor a village. There are no houses and no one to lead the way, so it is difficult to find water.
The two team leaders couldn't help but complain.
"Yuan Shuai, I think we should just forget it!"
"We are not locals, we don't even know where the water source is!"
"It should be not far ahead, speed up!"
After saying this, Yuan Shuai quickened his pace and ran towards the field.
"Are you still looking?"
"What's the point of looking for it? It's so dark. I won't be able to find any water even if I look till dawn!"
The two captains simply stayed put, each with their hands on their hips, looking at Yuan Shuai's back.
"Found it, it's here, come here quickly!"
After waiting for a while, Yuan Shuai's voice came from the front, making them look at each other in astonishment.
"No way, we actually found a water source!"
"How is this possible... Let's go up and take a look first!"
The two regiment commanders hurried over to Yuan Shuai.
Yuan Shuai was fetching water with a kettle in front. After fetching water, he stood up and shouted at them with the kettle.
"Here, come quickly, I found it!"
The two team leaders rushed over and turned on their flashlights to take a look.
The two were so shocked that they were speechless.
Just now they thought Yuan Shuai couldn’t find the water source, but unexpectedly, there was a natural puddle in front of them.
The clear spring water inside reflected the light of the flashlight.
"Yuan Shuai, you are really good. You actually found water!"
"But are you born in the year of the dog? How can you see water here at night?"
The two looked at Yuan Shuai with confusion.
"You are the dog! This is a rice field. Where there is a rice field, there must be water. Otherwise, how can the rice field be irrigated? So there must be a water source at the highest point of this rice field. This happens to be the highest rice field, so there must be a water source around this rice field! Hurry up and get some water. It's mountain spring water. It's very sweet!"
The two team leaders looked at each other in astonishment, and then each slapped themselves on the forehead.
"Damn it, why didn't I think of this!"
"Hurry up and get some water. Now we have enough water to drink!"
"So sweet! This spring water is so sweet!"
After the two team leaders each filled their kettles with water, they took a sip and smiled brightly.
Yuan Shuai ignored him and quickly turned back to continue working on his smokeless stove.
