Chapter 9 is Chinas must-save

  Chapter 9 is China must save

  (

  After Qin Wei and several others took an oath of blood in front of the villagers who died at Chenjia Slope, everyone drove a large truck to the mountain valley where Qin Wei hid his weapons and started the weapon. Then drive the big truck all the way into the mountain, heading towards the secret base originally selected by Yang Daquan.

  "Yang Da Kui, the 'One Line Sky' you mentioned is really that secretive." Qin Wei was somewhat skeptical of Yang Da Kui's words. It was said that this One Line Sky was discovered by chance when Yang Da Kui was chasing a mountain goat. The place was a basin in the mountains, with an area of about ten or more square kilometers. There was only one way in and out, and only one large cart could pass through at a time. The surrounding cliffs were steep and precipitous, making it extremely secluded. Several thousand people lived there without any issues.

  At the beginning, this place was used as a shelter for Chenjiapo, only the old village chief and a few elders in the village knew about it. However, after Chenjiapo's fellow villagers encountered difficulties, it became useless. This time, after Qin Wei took revenge for his fellow villagers, he wanted to find a mountain base, so Chen Daogui handed this place over again.

  A few people drove the horse cart along the mountain road, which became increasingly difficult to walk. Fortunately, Qin Wei sent Da Kui and Da Ming to Changshuitown to buy several mules and donkeys. When the horse cart could no longer move forward, the captured supplies and ammunition were loaded onto these large animals, which carried them deeper into the mountains.

  After walking for a day and a half, when several people were almost exhausted, that 'One Line Sky' finally arrived.

  It's really just like what Yang Daqiu said, this is absolutely a very suitable place to be used as a secret base.

  Even in Qin Wei's further investigation, there was this rapid underground river in a mountain cave in the valley. With just a small hydroelectric generator set, this valley could really become an extremely secret military industrial base.

  In the valley, as long as the defensive position is set up, this is simply an impregnable fortress. Unless the entire mountain body is flattened together, which would require a staggering amount of ammunition, even if the US military came, they would have to scratch their heads.

  In the valley there were several wooden houses, which was Yang Daquan's foothold for hunting in the mountains. A few people simply cleaned up and temporarily settled down.

  After settling down, Qin Wei became even stricter in his treatment of these few people.

  Chen Da-kui's talent as a sniper was exceptional, and Qin Wei knew that this young man would definitely surpass himself in the future with practice.

  Chen Dayong's shooting talent is also quite outstanding, although not as excellent as Chen Daqiu, but becoming a sniper deputy is completely capable.

  After nearly half a month of rigorous training, Chen Da-kui's marksmanship has improved a lot. Chen Da-kui looked at the Springfield sniper rifle in Qin Wei's hand with envy, which was modified by himself.

  However, Qin Wei did not give Chen Daogui the idea that he had selected a rifle from several dozen captured Type 38 Arisaka rifles and installed one of his spare sniper rifle scopes on it.

  And after Qin Wei's debugging and modification, this 38-style has become a good gun.

  When Chen Da-kui swaggered around with his rifle next to Chen Da-yong, Chen Da-yong could only silently wipe away tears from the corners of his eyes. Although Qin Wei had also given Chen Da-yong a rifle to test and modify, it didn't have a scope installed. Even though he gave Chen Da-yong a pair of binoculars captured from the enemy, every time Chen Da-yong saw Chen Da-kui's rifle, he would look at Qin Wei with an innocent face, making Qin Wei break out in goosebumps all over his body.

  While others were also training hard day and night, Qin Wei even gave them cultural lessons at night. At first, several people were not willing to learn, but after Qin Wei scolded them and lectured them, even mentioning the death of Chenjiapo's fellow villagers, they finally started learning seriously.

  That day, Qin Wei took Chen Da Kui and Chen Da Yong to conduct simulated sniper concealment and ambush training. Although Qin Wei was also a half-baked goods, he had theories, which you couldn't deny.

  Three people, all wearing camouflage suits made of fishing nets, with various self-matched camouflage colors on their faces, crawled into the woods and became almost indistinguishable.

  Just as the three men were preparing to lie in wait for over 12 hours at this location, a long procession appeared on the mountain path not far away.

  At first, the three of them thought they were just little devils, but as soon as they took a closer look, their hearts skipped a beat. A group of over ten people were tightly bound together with their arms tied behind their backs, being escorted by a small devil who slowly led the way forward. If there was any unusual movement in the procession, the little devils standing guard would immediately unleash a flurry of violent blows.

  A team of over a hundred people was being watched by more than a dozen little devils as they marched forward along the main road.

  Qin Wei used binoculars to observe for half a day and found that half of the team were soldiers wearing National Army uniforms, although they were tied up but their eyes flashed with determination, letting Qin Wei know that these soldiers had a strong sense of resistance.

  Qin Wei asked in a low voice to Yang Da-kui beside him: "Da-kui, what's your opinion?"

  Yang Daqi was slightly stunned and whispered: "Qin big brother, is this an exam?"

  "It's okay, what do you think?" Qin Wei said indifferently.

  Yang Da-kui added a bit excitedly to his lips, he knew this was Qin Wei's test for himself, and also a test of his own battlefield observational ability.

  "Qin, we three can take down these dozen or so little devils, absolutely no problem. They're just one squad, they don't even have grenade launchers, only a single machine gun. As long as we take out the sergeant and the machine gunner first, you and I can each take care of one clip and basically finish off this bunch of beasts. And since they're Chinese, we must rescue them." Yang Daquan analyzed.

  "Haha, not bad, it seems that this period of study hasn't been in vain. Without saying much, today I'll do as you said, and consider it a good start. These few little devils can be considered as interest collected for the villagers." Qin Wei's words were accompanied by laughter, but the murderous intent in his tone was already apparent.

  "Distribute the targets, Da Kui, you take out that machine gunner, I'll take out that sergeant, the rest are free game. Da Yong, don't fire for now, once those little devils make a move, then you open fire, got it?"

  Qin Wei assigned tasks, Yang Da-kui was nonchalant, while Yang Da-yong nodded reluctantly.

  Looking at Yang Dàyǒng's attitude, Yang Dàkuí glared and said in a low voice: "You little brat, be honest with me, don't fire without orders. If you dare to fire, I'll skin you alive when we get back."

  After hearing Yang Daqiu's words, Yang Dayong trembled with fear and didn't dare to speak. After avenging the villagers, the evil aura on Yang Daqiu grew even stronger. Now, except for Qin Wei, as long as Yang Daqiu glared at them, the other few young men would immediately become obedient.

  "Alright, you take the lead and find a suitable sniping position yourself." After saying that, Qin Wei crouched down and slowly moved forward to find a suitable sniping position.

  Yang Daqiu also brought Yang Dayong, hiding in the mountains and forests, looking for a sniping position.

  Yang Dong has been feeling extremely depressed lately, not because of anything else, but because he was unexpectedly caught by the Japanese devils and drafted into forced labor, preparing to be sent to Northeast China to dig coal. In that icy and snowy place, it's hard to survive, but now he doesn't dare to make any rash moves either. Even if his martial arts skills are good, facing the little devils' long guns and light machine guns, he doesn't think his kung fu is enough to dodge bullets yet.

  As a successor of Yang-style Tai Chi, although I am not considered orthodox, my skills are absolutely not given in vain. Originally living in Beijing, I didn't expect that on July 7th the little devils launched an attack, and I followed my family to head towards Henan province, preparing to cross the Yellow River to seek refuge with my uncle's family in Shaanxi.

  Unexpectedly, when I was in Taiyuan, my old father fell ill. Although many things were sold, his life still couldn't be saved.

  What's even more beautiful is that when preparing to go to Jinan and then take the Yellow River, he and his family were completely scattered. His elder brother and sister-in-law took his mother and nephews and nieces and ran away when they encountered Japanese planes bombing, Yang Dong searched for three whole days but still couldn't find anyone.

  What's even more unfortunate is that I was caught by the National Army and became a soldier, but this also fulfilled Yang Dong's wish. A good young man saw the little devils rampaging on his own country's land, and as a man, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing with them.

  But after becoming a national army, this battle was really suffocating, seeing the sky is just defense, defense, defense in defense, like a turtle with its head shrunk.

  He didn't even get himself blown unconscious by a shell fired by the little devils, and when he came to, he had become a prisoner of the little devils. Then, along with dozens of brothers and a group of captured civilians, they were preparing to be sent to Northeast China.

  Although Yang Dong always wanted to find an opportunity to escape, with his kung fu wanting to escape was still a great opportunity, but a severe cold made Yang Dong's plan impossible.

  Today, just as he was about to leave, he was rounded up by the little devils into a team preparing to head to Tunliu County, and then take the train to Taiyuan. Looking at the mountain roads around him, Yang Dong prepared to find an opportunity to escape, knowing that if he really arrived in Taiyuan, it would be even harder to escape.

  Just as Yang Dong was thinking about how to escape, the head of the Japanese sergeant who was showing off his might beside him suddenly burst open like a ripe watermelon, and red and white things flowed all over the ground.

  After just one breath, the shooter carrying a machine gun suddenly had a blood flower on his chest, and with a "thud", he fell to the ground.

  It has to be said that the combat effectiveness of the little devils in 1937 was still very strong. At the moment they were attacked, all the little devils immediately fell to the ground and began searching for the enemy's position everywhere.

  And these people who were captured or seized by the Japanese army weren't stupid either, they knew someone was looking for trouble with the little devils, and they also lay down on the ground in a hubbub.

  Yang Dong took this opportunity to flex his arms, and the ropes tied around him were shaken off. He was ready to take advantage of the situation - if the people who came had the ability, he would help them get rid of these little devils; if they didn't have what it takes to eat away at the little devils, then he would use this opportunity to make a run for it.

  Yang Dong, who had made up his mind, stared tightly at the little devils who had already hidden around.

  Suddenly, he found a little devil slowly moving towards the direction of the ghost machine gunner who fell to the ground, although the speed was not very fast, at this time it was already not far from the position of the machine gun.

  Seeing the joy on Xiao Gui's face, Yang Dong knew that Xiao Gui was about to succeed. Seeing this situation, Yang Dong's heart tightened, and he picked up a fist-sized stone beside him, aiming at the ghost's temple, ready to strike. Yang Dong had never seriously practiced hidden weapons before, and this little guy would definitely not hit, but would certainly be discovered by Xiao Gui. They couldn't find the gunman who ambushed them, but turning back to shoot themselves was still possible.

  Just as Yang Dong hesitated whether to take action, another bullet hit the little devil crawling on the ground, directly penetrating the devil's helmet and turning the head under the helmet into a pile of mush.

  As he watched the blood and brain matter flow out together, Yang Dong felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.

  But what all the people lying on the ground did not expect was that in less than a minute, a squad of little devils actually wiped out more than half, leaving only 4 little devils, hiding in a depression not far from Yang Dong, struggling desperately.

  Yang Dong thought for a moment, threw away the watch in his hand, and slowly crawled towards the nearest Japanese corpse. Next to the corpse was a rifle with a bayonet attached. His target wasn't the rifle, but the bayonet.

  Under the enemy's high-precision shooting, the devils hiding in the pit could only shoot aimlessly in all directions. At this time, Yang Dong had already put away that bayonet and bit it with his mouth, then slowly advanced towards those little devils who were struggling desperately, using the strength of his waist and abdomen.

  Far away on the mountain slope, Qin Wei had already seen all of this through his sniper scope. He was also very curious about what this National Army soldier with only a bayonet could do.

  Just then the little fellow, when still less than ten paces away from the hollow, suddenly sprang up like a fierce tiger and with a loud yell dashed into the hollow.

  Although it's unclear what happened, in less than 10 seconds, the soldier who looked like a fierce tiger stood up from the depression, still holding two small devils' corpses in his hands. The devils' necks were twisted at an extremely eerie angle, soft and limp as they hung from his grasp.

  Then he saw the little guy throw out two corpses, then bent down and picked up two small ghost corpses and threw them out. The four little ghosts who were still resisting just now became four corpses in less than ten seconds. Not to mention others, Qin Wei also swallowed a mouthful of saliva when he saw this situation.

  Those bound soldiers and civilians were shocked to look at this young man who had lived with them for many days, only to see him bare his teeth, his mouth full of snow-white teeth stained with blood, making those who saw him feel a chill run down their spines.

  "It was the hero of that road who saved us, please show up, the little devils have all surrendered." Yang Dong stood on the ground and cupped his hands, looking very heroic.

  Qin Wei watched all of this in his scope, and seeing this show was quite entertaining. He stood up from his hiding spot.

  Qin Wei's outfit shocked everyone, what the heck is this, his whole body was covered in grass, his face looked like it had been smoked, black, green and yellow all over, but the thing in his hand was pretty good, someone with discerning taste would know that it was a sniper rifle.

  Yang Dàyǒng also stood up together with them, while Yang Dàkuí continued to lie on the ground in hiding.

  "Brother, good skill! Which unit is that? What's your surname?" Qin Wei quickly walked down the mountain slope, and Yang Dabao also quickly came over, but he wasn't rushing towards Yang Dong. Instead, he was holding a knife to untie the bound soldiers and civilians.

  "My surname is Yang, from the 96th Central Army. I don't know what to call this brother." At that time, Yang Dong hadn't seen Qin Wei's lieutenant uniform yet and thought he was a bandit judging by his outfit.

  Qin Wei hehe smiled, didn't say anything, just took off the auspicious garment he was wearing outside, revealing the lieutenant colonel insignia of the Jin Sui Army inside.

  It turned out to be a friendly army, and even an officer, which made Yang Dong's heart jump in surprise. He didn't expect that there would be such a good hand in the Shanxi Army, so he quickly saluted and said, "Good sir."

  "Never mind, you and I don't belong to the same faction. You're from the Central Army, and I'm from the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. No need to mention these useless things. But, Brother Yang, your skills are quite impressive! Are you interested in staying with me and fighting against the devils together?" Qin Wei looked at Yang Dong's outstretched hand and felt a sense of recruitment. Earlier, he had taken a glance at the several devils that Yang Dong had killed, and they were all defeated with just one move, their movements swift and efficient.

  "Hmm, Captain, how many people are in your team now?" Yang Dong asked with a smile.

  "Hmm, isn't our temple too small to hold a great Bodhisattva like you? You've already asked around and told me that this kid doesn't have any real skills, but I don't want him anyway. I'm only taking him with me to fight the devils because he's got some decent moves. Besides, fighting devils is all the same, isn't it?" Qin Wei said with a big tone, glancing at Yang Dong.

  "Alright, alright, officer. You're right, I'll listen to you." Yang Dong looked at Qin Wei's precise shooting and knew that this person was not a kind-hearted one, but rather ruthless towards the little devils, which made Yang Dong feel more affectionate towards him in his heart.

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and picked up the little devil's crooked handle, put it on his shoulder, and then pulled out two rifles, putting them on his back. In a short while, his body was fully loaded with weapons and ammunition, weighing about 70 or 80 kilograms in total. However, there was no sign of heaviness on Yang Dong's face.

  Yang Dàyǒng on the side was stunned, his own strength was already enough, didn't expect this kid's power to be even greater than mine. This is what Yang Dàyǒng thought in his heart when he saw Yang Dong's belongings.

  After subduing Yang Dong, Qin Wei turned around and looked at the soldiers and civilians who were still helping each other untie their ropes. He bellowed: "Is there an official here? Come out and speak up for yourself!"

  "Reporting to the superior officer, I am the deputy company commander of the 2nd company, 3rd battalion, 624th regiment, 312 brigade, 104 division, 47th army, Lieutenant Ma Hong. Please give me instructions." As he spoke, a military officer in his thirties appeared before him and saluted. The man was not tall, with a somewhat thin build, but the stubborn look on his face made him seem like a tough nut to crack. No wonder he was still just a lieutenant at thirty years old. However, people who were stubborn often had some real skills, and Qin Wei knew this all too well.

  Qin Wei returned a courtesy and said: "Lieutenant, how did you get captured?"

  "Report, we are the vanguard of the 47th Army. Originally, our company was sent out to conduct reconnaissance, but unexpectedly encountered a Japanese squadron. Our company commander died, and several platoon leaders also died. Only I and Platoon Leader Guo Kun were left, and we were knocked unconscious by mortar fire. When we woke up, we had been captured." The officer's Mandarin Chinese, although spoken with a Sichuan accent that sounded somewhat awkward, was still clear enough to understand.

  "Oh, and there's another one. Where is he?" Before Qin Wei's words had even fallen, a tall man over 1.8 meters appeared in front of him, shouting loudly: "Reporting for duty! Forty-seventh Army, 104th Division, 312nd Regiment, 624th Battalion, Third Company, Second Platoon, Squad Leader Guo Kun, awaiting orders from the superior officer."

  Qin Wei took a closer look and exclaimed, "Good heavens! What a fine specimen of a man!" He was at least 1.85 meters tall, making him particularly conspicuous among the generally short-statured Sichuan troops. His bushy whiskers and eagle eyes only added to his exceptionally ferocious appearance.

  Qin Wei's eyes narrowed and he continued to ask: "Then how many of you were captured by the Japanese army?"

  Ma Hong lowered his head and thought for a moment: "There are probably less than 10 people, the others were all killed in battle. These captured brothers were all stunned by the Japanese artillery fire before being captured."

  Qin Wei took a look around the crowd and thought that Ma Hong was right, there were less than ten Sichuan troops, and most of them were Shanxi troops and civilians. At this time, Qin Wei had an idea in his mind, which was to pull up a team and fight against the devils, after all, the strength of seven people was too weak.

  "Alright, Ma Lian, this place is not far from the enemy's stronghold. If those devils hear the gunfire and come out to pursue us, it won't be good. We have a hiding spot in the mountains, let's go there first to rest and regroup, then think about what to do next." Qin Wei planned to bring these people back to his secret base, see if he could reorganize them into a cohesive unit. With good equipment, these men would definitely make excellent soldiers.

  Ma Hong looked around at the situation and then looked at his brothers, knowing that if they didn't take a break, these people might really be done for, so he could only nod in agreement.

  Strip this group of little devils naked, and over a hundred people led by Qin Wei drilled into the forest sea in southeastern Shanxi. In an instant, a group of people disappeared into the vast mountains.

  Went to mother-in-law's house yesterday, came back really late, today I'm begging for forgiveness.
