The Cycle of Reincarnation in the Four-Courtyard House: A Journey Through the Heavens
Chapter 8 Ambush on the Japanese Convoy
Li Xiao lowered the thick cotton curtain on the carriage canopy, grabbed the handlebars, and continued northward.
The cart weighed at least 300 jin (150 kg), but that was nothing to Li Xiao now.
After taking the gene-enhancing drug, even though he hadn't fully absorbed its effects, his physical strength was already more than five times that of an average middle-aged man.
So pulling this 300-pound cart was quite easy for him.
Along the way, they encountered several groups of Henan Province people fleeing towards Beijing. Forty kilometers away from Beijing, Li Xiao actually discovered the two fleeing refugees.
He didn't act at the time, waiting until midnight, after all the refugees had fallen asleep, before Li Xiao sent the two men who had harbored ill intentions towards his mother to the deepest hell.
When they were still more than ten miles away from Beijing, Li Xiao's keen hearing detected what sounded like the roar of a car coming from behind.
Li Xiao felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that the people who came were either Japanese soldiers or puppet troops. He looked around and found a dilapidated earth god temple about 300 meters to his left.
Because several poplar trees were planted in front of the earth god temple, only a corner of it was visible, but it was still spotted by Li Xiao, who had excellent eyesight.
Li Xiao pulled the cart and ran quickly toward the dilapidated temple. After he pulled the cart into the temple, Li Feng also ran in, panting.
"Mother, please rest in this dilapidated temple for now. It seems like the Japanese are following us!"
Wang Xia lifted the cotton curtain, her face showing a hint of panic. Even the two little girls, Liu Qianqian and Li Qian, had expressions of fear on their faces.
"Xiao'er, have the Japanese discovered us?"
Li Xiao said calmly, "Mother, don't worry. We're just refugees. Those Japanese devils won't come after us in cars."
"I'll go out and investigate right away, to see what they're up to!"
"Xiao'er, you'd better not go. Those bastards all have guns. What if they..."
Wang Xia stopped there and dared not continue.
"Mother, don't worry! I'll just sneak off to take a look. If those Japanese devils are chasing us this way, we can run away in advance."
"Well...you really have to be careful!!"
"Please don't worry about it!"
After traveling for several days, Li Xiao has fully absorbed the effects of the gene-enhancing drug.
At this moment, he already possesses ten times the physical abilities of an ordinary person. Whether it is speed, endurance, or strength, he has long surpassed the realm of ordinary people.
In addition to the large number of modern weapons in his space supermarket and his superb skills, even if a thousand Japanese soldiers came, he could use the terrain and guerrilla tactics to annihilate them all.
Li Xiao was currently hiding on a small hillside 500 meters southwest of the dilapidated temple, from where he could see the north-south dirt road below.
If the enemy in the trucks were heading towards Beijing, this would be their only route.
Today, he's ready to pull off his first big heist, marking his first real battle in this world!
He waited less than five minutes before he saw a cloud of dust rising from the dirt road he had come from.
Leading the way were two sidecar motorcycles adorned with the Japanese flag.
A Type 96 machine gun was mounted on the side of the motorcycle.
About 300 meters behind the sidecar motorcycle, a line of trucks appeared.
Li Xiao counted them; the truck convoy had a total of twelve vehicles.
Li Xiao frowned slightly, pondering, "It seems this is a Japanese transport convoy. There must be some important supplies in the trucks that they are transporting to Beijing."
"It's still more than ten miles from here to the capital. Looks like we can give it a shot!"
In Li Xiao's mind, since he had encountered this Japanese transport team of less than a hundred people in the wild, it would be a disservice to his superhuman physique if he didn't pull off a heist.
Suddenly, an M82A1 Barrett sniper rifle appeared in his hand. Without even opening the bipod, Li Xiao raised the gun and fired two bursts at the fuel tanks of the two sidecar motorcycles at the front.
"Bang~ Bang~"
"Boom~ Boom~"
After the Barrett's loud bang, the two tan-colored sidecar motorcycles belonging to the Japanese soldiers were instantly blown into two fireballs.
The Japanese soldiers sitting on the sidecar were killed on the spot, but Li Xiao did not stop. His eyes were fixed on the scope, and he began to pick off the enemy from the cab of the truck at the front.
The Barrett's terrifying recoil was almost negligible to Li Xiao, who had already fully absorbed the gene enhancement drug. Every time he pulled the trigger, his body did not tremble at all.
The Barrett's 12.7mm bullet easily penetrated the cockpit window and struck the driver's upper body directly.
The bullet's terrifying kinetic energy tore the Japanese driver's upper body in two, and the scene of flying flesh and blood made the entire driver's cab incredibly gruesome.
At this moment, the dirt road below was in complete chaos.
Li Xiao fired all ten bullets from the magazine in one go, each one hitting the target precisely.
At this moment, the vehicles at the back of the convoy had already stopped, and a group of Japanese soldiers jumped out of the first and last vehicles.
The Japanese soldiers, holding their Type 38 rifles, frantically pulled the triggers in all directions.
Li Xiao had already left his original spot, and his figure darted to the left side of the convoy like a cheetah.
As he ran, he retrieved the Barrett rifle into the space supermarket, and then an HK416 assault rifle appeared in his hand.
"Da da da~"
The powerful firepower of the HK416 instantly overwhelmed the group of Japanese soldiers who were like headless flies, sweeping them to the ground.
After emptying a magazine, Li Xiao didn't even return the magazine; he immediately switched his HK416 for a MAC assault rifle manufactured by Sig Sauer.
"Da da da da~"
As Li Xiao pulled the trigger, he performed various highly professional dodging maneuvers, and the bullets fired from his rifle were extremely accurate as they swept towards the group of Japanese soldiers.
Amidst the screams of the Japanese soldiers and the gunfire of Type 38 rifles, the more than sixty Japanese soldiers who jumped off the two trucks were all killed by Li Xiao in less than five minutes.
Li Xiao put the MAC rifle, which was now empty, back into the Space Supermarket, and two more Glock 17 pistols appeared in his hand.
The Glock 17 pistol, with a 17-round magazine, spewed flames of fury from its muzzle, each bullet precisely striking the Japanese soldiers who jumped out of the driver's seat.
Li Xiao's marksmanship goes without saying. He now possesses ten times the physical strength and eyesight of an ordinary person, so calling him a marksman god is not an exaggeration.
Every bullet struck the enemy precisely between the eyebrows, so apart from the Japanese soldiers who kept yelling and firing at Li Xiao, all the hit enemies fell to the ground without uttering a sound.
After all 34 bullets in the two pistols were fired, the scene finally returned to calm.
