Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Led by a guerrilla guide, the group of six traversed mountains and valleys to reach the top of the mountain.

"Another Japanese force is coming; it looks like another infantry battalion!"

Xiao Gao observed Japanese troops marching ahead and cursed under his breath, "Damn it, so many Japanese soldiers, 500 men alone can't hold them off. Instructor, should we turn back now?"

"These three sniper rifles are all bolt-action rifles; they won't add much strength to our forces if we go back."

Instructor Peng shook his head and said, "The objective remains the same: continue searching for Itagaki!"

"yes!"

So they set off again, bending over and walking briskly forward.

The abundance of weeds on the mountain provided them with excellent cover.

Upon reaching the other side of the mountain, the three men once again used their binoculars to observe the enemy situation.

"Instructor, over there!"

Old Wu suddenly whispered, "I saw a few Japanese officers!"

Upon hearing this, Instructor Peng looked in the direction Old Wu was pointing.

He saw a Japanese battalion commander reporting the situation to two officers.

One of the officers was rather short, with a large head, thick black eyebrows, and a neat little mustache.

On the hat on his head was a golden five-pointed star, a symbol of a general.

He held a Type 94 general's saber in his hand and wore a brown stand-up collar woolen overcoat.

Judging from his demeanor, even if he wasn't Itagaki Seishiro, he was still a Japanese general.

Beside him was a thin man wearing glasses.

The man was dressed similarly to the short, bearded man, but he had a more refined demeanor and lacked the domineering aura of someone who held the power of life and death.

The Japanese soldiers around them were extremely vigilant, each holding a rifle, ready to attack the enemy at any moment.

Instructor Peng took out two photos and compared them, saying, "That's right, the man with the small mustache is Lieutenant General Seishiro Itagaki, the commander of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, and the man next to him is Major General Toshiaki Nishimura, the division's chief of staff."

"Now that we've encountered them, we can't let them go back alive. Even if we die this time, we must carry out the commander's orders!"

Old Wu exclaimed excitedly, "I've fought so many Japanese soldiers, the highest rank I've ever been was a Japanese battalion commander, but I've never killed a Japanese general!"

Xiao Gao frowned and said, "Instructor Peng, we seem to be quite far apart, a full 2960 meters!"

"At this distance, hitting them isn't that easy!"

Instructor Peng also examined the scope for a moment, and finally said, "Then the three of us will first target Itagaki Seishiro and take out this Japanese lieutenant general. If we have the opportunity, we can deal with Nishimura Toshio!"

The other two felt it was a bit of a pity, but for the sake of accuracy, they nodded.

The three immediately found their positions and pointed their guns downwards.

"Fire all at once after counting to three!"

Instructor Peng said something and began to silently recite it in his mind.

At the same time, his finger lightly rested on the trigger, his eyes pressed against the 25x scope, ready to fire.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Fire!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three enormous roars echoed across the mountaintop one after another.

Three dark gun muzzles spewed out three balls of flame, and three huge 12.7 mm bullets suddenly burst out of the barrels and shot towards Itagaki Seishiro below.

The bullet has an initial velocity of extremely high speed, but as air resistance occurs, the speed gradually decreases, but it is still supersonic.

In just 4.5 seconds, three bullets traveled a distance of approximately 2960 meters.

"Bang!"

The first bullet missed, but landed on the ground, sending dust flying.

"enemy……"

The Japanese soldiers below immediately noticed the bullet.

However, before they could even shout, the second and third bullets arrived one after another.

"Bang!"

The second bullet struck Itagaki Seishiro's chest instantly, the terrifying kinetic energy shattering his ribs and sending countless bone fragments flying, piercing through his internal organs.

At the same time, Itagaki Seishiro felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and was about to fly backward.

His body shifted, causing the third bullet to strike his abdomen, piercing through it and creating a hole larger than a fist in his lower back, tearing apart all his internal organs.

With a "thud," Itagaki Seishiro collapsed to the ground, his life extinguished!

"Enemy attack!"

Only then did the terrified cries of the Japanese soldiers rang out.

"Commander of the Protection Division!"

Nishimura Rion shouted and ran towards the car next to him, intending to hide behind it.

The adjutant checked and found that Itagaki Seishiro was completely dead.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At that moment, three gunshots rang out from a distance.

"The enemy is over there! Kill them all!"

The adjutant gave orders to the soldiers, while he himself began to look for cover.

However, his examination of Itagaki Seishiro's body had caused a delay.

Before he could leave, more bullets were fired.

"Sizzle!"

One of the bullets hit his leg, tearing it apart.

A second bullet struck him in the back, ending his life as well.

He was no ordinary adjutant, but a senior adjutant in the 5th Division, serving as the division's adjutant chief, with the rank of lieutenant colonel.

……

"pity!"

Old Wu sighed, "We only managed to take down Itagaki, but Nishimura got away!"

"Being able to kill Itagaki is already incredibly lucky!"

Instructor Peng said, "Those Japanese soldiers are heading this way. We'd better run! We absolutely cannot let these sniper rifles fall into their hands!"

And so, the group of seven, armed with guns and ammunition, sped back the way they came.

Behind them, a group of Japanese soldiers were running towards the top of the mountain.

The two sides were already nearly six miles apart, so it was naturally not easy to catch up.

Even if the Japanese army wanted to deploy 70mm infantry guns to bombard them, they probably wouldn't be able to hit them.

During the run, Instructor Peng took out his walkie-talkie from his waist, turned it on, and tuned it to the appropriate channel.

As he ran, rifle slung over his shoulder, he pressed the button on his walkie-talkie and reported, "Hello, hello, calling Commander Yang, calling Commander Yang, we have just killed the commander of the Japanese 5th Division, Seishiro Itagaki!"

"Itagaki Seishiro has been killed by us. He was hit by two 12.7mm bullets and could not have survived!"

"What? You really killed Itagaki?"

Upon hearing the voice coming from the walkie-talkie, Commander Yang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
