Sword of Light: Humanoid Self-Propelled Artillery

Chapter 11: Shooting is a waste of bullets
Kong Jie was stunned by Wang Gensheng's words, then patted Wang Gensheng's shoulder with great satisfaction and said:
"Okay! If you're willing to follow me, I'll go talk to Li Yunlong!"

After saying this, Kong Jie waved his hand and said to the soldiers of the first battalion:
"Everyone, watch your step and don't make any noise. This time I'm going to catch a turtle in its sleep!"

At Kong Jie's reminder, the group began to quietly enter Wanjia Town, and Wang Gensheng was very happy with Kong Jie's words.

As for why Wang Gensheng said this, it was mainly because he followed Kong Jie's words and was able to go to Xianyue to participate in the war to aid Xianyue and compete with Miyue.

Besides, following Kong Jie to join the newly formed New Second Regiment would naturally lead to faster promotion than staying in the Independent Regiment.

Unlike camping in the wild, soldiers sleeping in barracks will not hold their guns in their arms, but will choose to lean against the wall at the door of the barracks.

So when Kong Jie led the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment into the barracks of the Japanese cavalry battalion, most of the Japanese soldiers naturally raised their hands without any ability to fight back.

There is no way. Even if someone wants to resist, they don’t even have a gun in their hand to resist!

From this point we can see the cleverness of the Eighth Route Army's habit of placing secret sentries. If Wang Gensheng had not quietly eliminated the two sentries at the town gate just now, the sentries would have fired their guns.

Then Kong Jie’s raid was not so smooth!

"who!"

砰

"what!"

Wang Gensheng touched his chest which was hit by the bullet and felt very relieved. If he had not been wearing the Japanese bulletproof vest, his journey of traveling through time to fight the Japanese might have ended here!
The reason why Wang Gensheng was shot was that he saw a relatively luxurious room, so he was about to push the door open to enter, but it seemed that the people inside were not asleep, so just when Wang Gensheng pushed the door open, the scene just now happened.

Wang Gensheng was also not vague. Just when the man inside shot Wang Gensheng in the chest, Wang Gensheng swung the combat knife in his hand and stabbed it into the arm of the shooter.

So the scream naturally came from the person who shot him, not Wang Gensheng.

Kong Jie rushed over immediately after hearing the gunshots and asked Wang Gensheng worriedly:
"Wang Gensheng, how are you? Are you okay?"

Wang Gensheng patted the bulletproof vest he was wearing and said:

"It's okay! The bulletproof vest of the devil is quite strong. The bullet didn't penetrate it. But this devil dared to shoot me. There's nothing to say. I have to kill him today!"

As soon as Wang Gensheng said this, the traitor was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said to Wang Gensheng and Kong Jie:
"I surrender, please don't kill me! I am the commander of the cavalry battalion of the Eighth Mixed Corps. As long as you don't kill me, I will take my cavalry battalion and surrender to you, the Eighth Route Army!"

However, just as the second devil cavalry battalion commander finished speaking, Kong Jie interrupted him:

"No! Our independent regiment wouldn't dare accept someone like you. This time we only want your cavalry battalion's equipment and horses. As for you traitors, we'll release you after a public trial!"

That's right, the Eighth Route Army doesn't accept everyone. They certainly won't accept the traitors who are made up of land bullies and hooligans. Accepting them will only ruin the reputation of the Eighth Route Army in the hearts of the people, which is a thankless task.

Therefore, the Eighth Route Army would first publicly try all the captured traitors to see if they had any bad record of oppressing the people. If not, or if no evidence was found, their guns would be confiscated and they would be released. If so, they would naturally be executed directly.

This can also earn the Eighth Route Army a good reputation through propaganda. During the Anti-Japanese War, an era of moral corruption, the reputation of a team is naturally very important.

The public trial was quick. The gunshot had woken up the residents of Wanjia Town, which was not very big to begin with. However, the entire Wanjia Town had less than 10,000 residents. As more and more people gathered, Kong Jie immediately pushed the series of traitors forward and asked the onlookers to identify them one by one.

As they identified them one by one, they finally found out that more than 30 traitors could be shot. Of course, most of these traitors had committed crimes of insulting women.

This crime would have only taken three years in the era before Wang Gensheng traveled through time. If he pleaded guilty with a good attitude and was willing to pay compensation and get a letter of apology, it would not be impossible to reduce the sentence by another one or two years.

But in that era, especially in the eyes of the Eighth Route Army, it was a serious matter. Not to mention the traitors, even if the Eighth Route Army's own soldiers did something to insult women, they would be shot without a doubt.

Wang Gensheng watched as these thirty or so traitors were about to be executed, and immediately said to Kong Jie:

"Captain Kong, please don't execute them! They don't deserve to be shot. Shooting them would be a waste of bullets. I think we should use knives! Besides, can I kill these traitors?"

When Kong Jie heard Wang Gensheng's request, he immediately thought of Wangjia Village where Wang Gensheng lived, which seemed to have been massacred by the Japanese invaders and their little devils!

Therefore, it was normal for Wang Gensheng to hate these traitors, so he said:

"Okay! Hurry up!"

When Wang Gensheng heard Kong Jie's agreement, he immediately swung the two combat knives in his hands and stabbed them directly into the foreheads of the two traitors.

The two devils fell to the ground without a sound. However, just when Wang Gensheng was about to pull out the flying knife from the devil's forehead, Kong Jie stopped Wang Gensheng and said:

"Wait! Your flying knife kills too slowly, use this!"

After saying that, Kong Jie handed the big knife he had been carrying on his back to Wang Gensheng.

This big sword is much heavier than the Japanese samurai sword. The Japanese samurai sword weighs no more than 1.5 kilograms, or three pounds.

However, the big knife that Kong Jie gave had eight or nine layers at the front. Wang Gensheng was stunned at Kong Jie's suggestion, and then he took the big knife from Kong Jie's hand.

Then he walked to the nearest traitor, raised his sword without hesitation and chopped it down on the neck.

It's very smooth, with no lag whatsoever, except when the head falls to the ground. However, the only downside is that blood easily splashes onto the face.

But Wang Gensheng smiled immediately when he felt the warmth flowing through his body.

Because Wang Gensheng finally figured out the law of heat flow generated by killing enemies. That's right, Wang Gensheng's golden finger as a time traveler actually wanted Wang Gensheng to engage in close combat.

When I just crossed over and used a grenade to kill two Japanese special forces soldiers from 60 meters away, there were only two extremely weak heat currents.

Later, when I killed two Japanese sentries at a distance of 30 meters with a throwing knife, the heat flow I felt was about twice as much as when I killed the Japanese special forces.

Then, the heat flow that had just been used to kill two traitors who were to be executed three meters away with a flying knife reversed again. However, just when he killed the traitor with a knife, the heat flow from his body was the strongest.
