Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

"On your marks!" Xie Baoqing shouted in a low voice.

slam-la-

The henchmen immediately pulled the bolts of their guns.

Just then, a dozen or so Japanese soldiers caught up from behind.

Five of them were members of Yamamoto's special forces.

Seeing the Japanese soldiers behind him, Mutaguchi Renya immediately stopped and waited. After the dozen or so Japanese soldiers caught up, he asked in a deep voice:

"What is the situation with the main force?"

"The main force is wiped out, but some small groups managed to break through."

The combat squad leader immediately replied:

"General, the Taihang Mountains are not far ahead. Please do not rest here."

"What?!" Renya Mutaguchi's expression changed.

What use are small groups of troops that break through when the main force is gone?

Moreover, this isn't even the Taihang Mountains; the area around Zhengtai Road is teeming with Eighth Route Army guerrillas.

These small groups of troops are probably doomed as well.

Seeing that the morale of the Japanese soldiers was somewhat low, Mutaguchi Renya said in a deep voice: "There is an old Chinese saying, 'Where there is life, there is hope.' As long as we can break through the encirclement alive, we will definitely be able to avenge all the Japanese soldiers who sacrificed their lives."

The Japanese soldiers immediately regained some morale.

"Keep going!" Upon seeing this, Mutaguchi Renya gave the order.

Immediately, the group of Japanese soldiers rushed towards the huge crevice in the rock.

The Japanese special forces soldiers around Mutaguchi Renya all looked warily at the two sides of the rock wall.

If they weren't afraid of the main force of the Eighth Route Army catching up, they would definitely have conducted reconnaissance beforehand and only allowed Mutaguchi Renya to pass after confirming it was safe.

at this time.

"Bang! Bang!"

The two sudden gunshots startled the Japanese soldiers, who quickly surrounded Mutaguchi Renya.

Mutaguchi Renya looked to both sides and gasped in shock. He saw rifles, machine guns, and submachine guns on the stone walls on both sides.

"The Eighth Route Army guerrillas?"

Mutaguchi Renya's face darkened. He thought to himself, "How unlucky! To be ambushed by guerrillas here?"

"No, it should be bandits..."

However, Mutaguchi Renya quickly deduced the other person's identity from their clothing and demeanor.

"You little devils, lay down your weapons and surrender now, and I'll spare your lives!"

The sound came from behind a rock.

"idiot…"

Mutaguchi Renya, who was initially still somewhat fearful, immediately flew into a rage, his eyes wide open and his face flushed red, as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

It's one thing for the Eighth Route Army to bully the Locust Army, but what are you bandits anyway, daring to bully the Locust Army?

He already anticipated the ridicule he would receive from various generals upon arriving in Beiping.

Mutaguchi-kun, I heard you were robbed by bandits on your way to break out?
idiot!

court death!

He immediately and angrily ordered, "Fire!"

The Japanese soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then they could only obey orders and open fire on the hills on both sides.

"Da da da……"

A Type 96 light machine gun, several MP38 submachine guns, and several rifles opened fire simultaneously, and several bandits were immediately hit, screaming as they fell down the rock face.

"He, damn it, refused the toast, and now he's going to have to drink the penalty cup!"

"Give it to me, hit it hard!"

Seeing that the Japanese not only refused to surrender but also dared to fight back, Xie Baoqing, who was hiding in the shadows, was furious and roared loudly.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Da da da……"

In an instant, all kinds of firepower poured down on the Japanese soldiers in the crack, and several Japanese soldiers were hit and fell into pools of blood on the spot.

This time, Mutaguchi Renya underestimated the fighting power of these bandits.

Xie Baoqing and his gang from Black Cloud Village frequently robbed Japanese soldiers. Their most successful attack was ambushing and annihilating a Japanese squad.

Those lacking in combat skills and marksmanship had long been eliminated by the Japanese; the remaining members were all relatively experienced in combat. The Black Cloud Stronghold's henchmen definitely wouldn't scatter like birds at the first shot.

In a direct confrontation, Black Cloud Stronghold would naturally be no match for these fewer than 30 elite Japanese soldiers.

However, Black Cloud Village now has the advantages of terrain and firepower.

However, some of the Japanese special forces members were incredibly strong. They not only rolled to dodge bullets, but also fired short bursts with submachine guns while rolling, taking down one bandit with each burst.

His movements were crisp and clean, without any hesitation; elegant yet unpretentious, each move deadly.

The bandits, including Liang Erhu, who were hiding in the shadows, gasped in shock.

The ruthlessness and speed of the attack were something even Liang Erhu, a veteran of over 20 years of banditry, couldn't match. He was glad he hadn't shown himself, otherwise he might very well be a cold corpse by now.

These are the rules bandits follow when they commit robbery, some openly and some covertly.

In the original drama, Wei Heshang was tricked by Liang Erhu because he knew very little about the ways of bandits.

"Damn it, I refuse to believe I can't take down these Japanese devils!"

Liang Erhu quietly peeked out, aimed his pistol at the high-ranking Japanese officer, and pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

"what!"

The gunshot rang out, and Mutaguchi Renya immediately screamed as his right foot was hit and he fell to the ground.

Liang Erhu deliberately spared the life of this Japanese soldier, who looked like a high-ranking official and might be worth a lot of money.

However, before Liang Erhu could pull himself back, a Japanese special forces soldier spotted him.

Liang Erhu did not expect the opponent's marksmanship to be so fast. In the blink of an eye, the opponent turned the gun and fired without even aiming. Liang Erhu was hit in the forehead and rolled down the rocks.

"Sharpshooter..."

Liang Erhu stared wide-eyed, dying with his eyes wide open; these were his last thoughts.

"Second in command!"

Xie Baoqing cried out in anguish:
"Throw them! Throw melon grenades! Blow them up! Blow them up and kill these Japanese devils!"

These melon-shaped grenades were captured from the Japanese. They were more powerful than wooden-handled grenades, but there weren't many of them, and Xie Baoqing usually couldn't bear to use them.

The Japanese soldiers also began to retaliate with grenades, and more than a dozen of their henchmen fell in pools of blood.

If we don't use grenades soon, Black Cloud Village will be wiped out.

Dozens of Type 97 hand grenades were thrown onto the path through the rock crevices below.

"Boom boom boom..."

A series of short, consecutive explosions finally brought all the Japanese soldiers to their deaths in pools of blood.

Seeing that there was no movement below, Xie Baoqing waited for a few minutes before ordering a few of his men to go down and check the situation.

"Boss, there's still one Japanese soldier alive!"

"He's a high-ranking official!"

One of the henchmen shouted loudly.

Xie Baoqing then emerged from the shadows, leading a group of henchmen down from behind the cliff. Upon seeing that the other party was the Japanese officer who had been shot by Liang Erhu, he shouted: "Fight! Clean up the battlefield! Take him back to the stronghold!"

In an attempt to ambush the 20-odd Japanese soldiers, Black Cloud Stronghold lost more than 30 of its henchmen, including its second-in-command.

Moreover, a large amount of ammunition was wasted, and the spoils were few, which infuriated Xie Baoqing.

Xie Baoqing had never made such a losing deal since he became a bandit.

After bringing Mutaguchi Renya back to the mountain stronghold, Xie Baoqing immediately ordered the third leader to torture Mutaguchi Renya, hoping to extract some money from him.

He refused to believe that the Japanese hadn't amassed gold and silver treasures during their years in Taiyuan. With Zhengtai Road and Tongpu Road blocked by the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese couldn't transport their valuables out, so they must have hidden them somewhere.

"I am Major General Renya Mutaguchi, Chief of Staff of the First Army of the Great Japanese Empire. If you escort me to Beiping, I can guarantee you wealth and honor."

"Your boss, I guarantee I can become the commander-in-chief of the Locust Army in North China."

Renya Mutaguchi finally gave in, speaking in a weak, Japanese-accented Chinese.

"Damn it, I killed so many of your Japanese soldiers. The moment I send you to Beiping, I'm definitely done for." Xie Baoqing wasn't stupid.

After being subjected to a beating with chili water and the tiger bench, Mutaguchi Renya screamed in agony, but he remained defiant.

"He, damn it, he's so shameless."

"Pour shit into his mouth."

"I, I just don't believe he, he won't tell."

Xie Baoqing flew into a rage. (End of Chapter)
