Chapter 35: Solo Confrontation

  The next morning, Hua Lieyang woke up from his dream and said to Yang Chunxiao beside him: "Uncle Xiao, you should be in Rehe now, how can you be here?!" Yang Chunxiao smiled and said: "We were resting near Fakou preparing to go to Rehe when the Japanese army suddenly appeared in Fakou! As a result, we had a battle with them!"

  When Yang Chunxiao heard the words, Hua Lieyang immediately frowned and said: "The little Japanese dare to move the law warehouse! I will make them worse than dead!" As he spoke, a fierce light burst out of Hua Lieyang's eyes! On the side, Yang Chunfeng was stunned by Hua Lieyang's gaze, and after a while, he came back to his senses and sighed deeply: "Jiting, it's not that your uncle is relying on his old age! Some things you should also be more open-minded about!"

  "Feng Shu, don't worry! I know how to handle it! However, the hatred between parents and children cannot be shared, and my grandfather Yang Yuting was also indirectly killed by the Japanese! I must avenge him!" Hua Lieyang said seriously.

  When Yang Chunlei heard Hua Lieyang's words, he seriously patted Hua Lieyang's shoulder and said: "Ji Ting, as long as you say the word revenge! This hundred or so pounds of your Uncle Lei will be handed over to you!" As soon as Yang Chunlei finished speaking, the others also chimed in unison: "Don't worry! We'll help you!"

  At this moment, Hua Lieyang's eyes were moist. Looking at Hua Lieyang's red eyes, Yang Chunxiao smiled and said: "Alright, let's get ready and set off! The earlier we meet up with the main force, the safer we'll be!"

  Upon hearing Yang Chunxiao's words, everyone habitually checked their own weapons and then cleaned up the traces around them before disappearing into the forest.

  After walking for more than an hour, they suddenly heard the sound of gunfire, screams and barking dogs coming from not far away. Hearing these sounds, Hua Lieyang and his team immediately became vigilant and formed a triangular attack formation to move forward. After walking for a while, Hua Lieyang and his team hid in the grass thicket, observing the surrounding situation through the sniper rifle's scope.

  At this time, I saw that the village not far away had bursts of fire, and the Japanese army gathered all the men, women, children and elderly in the village together. Seeing this scene, Hu Lieyang said to Yang Chunxiao beside him: "Uncle Xiao, we can't ignore it! They are our parents, relatives, brothers and sisters!"

  "I know! Look at how many little devils are here, almost a whole battalion! How can one person possibly win against them?!" Yang Chunxiao said seriously.

  Hua Lieyang thought for a moment after hearing Yang Chunxiao's words, then said: "A standard Japanese army company has one thousand one hundred and fifty people! If we face them head-on and fight to the death, of course, we can't beat them! But if we play to our strengths, use sniper rifles in secret to take them out one by one, I think that's not a problem, right?!"

  Yang Chunxiao thought for a moment and nodded, saying: "Ji Ting, you're right!" After finishing, Yang Chunxiao called the other people to his side and said: "Wait a minute, we'll attack the little devils according to our combat plan! Think of a way to rescue the civilians!" As he spoke, Yang Chunxiao looked at Hua Lieyang and asked: "Ji Ting, you're with that group, you decide yourself!"

  "I'll go alone! Let's meet back here after the battle!" Having said that, Hua Lieyang checked his ammunition and continued: "Alright everyone, let's get moving now!" After finishing speaking, Hua Lieyang smiled as he turned around with his sniper rifle.

  Watching Hua Lieyang leave, Yang Chunfeng said to Yang Chunxiao: "Ji Ting now regards killing devils as his spiritual pillar! If the little devil is defeated, I really worry about Ji Ting's body!"

  "Don't worry about this! Don't forget that Jingting still has a younger sister!" Yang Chunlei interjected from the side. As he spoke, Yang Chunlei checked his weapon and said to Yang Chunxiao: "Chunxiao, we should also take action now! If I fall behind that kid Jingting, I'll really have some regret!"

  Upon hearing Yang Chunlei's words, Yang Chunxiao smiled and said: "Then let's have a good competition with him!" As she spoke, Yang Chunxiao followed Yang Chunlei away.

  Soon, people hid around the village, unanimously raising their sniper rifles to watch the Japanese army's movements! At this time, a traitor walked in front of the ordinary people and said: "The Great Japanese Empire is building the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere! From now on, this place will no longer be under the management of the Chinese government! You all listen carefully, from now on every household must send out personnel, grain to participate...

  Before the traitor could finish speaking, Hua Lieyang pulled the trigger of his sniper rifle, and a bullet accurately shot into the traitor's mouth. Seeing the result in the scope, Hua Lieyang didn't hesitate to pull the bolt, immediately pulling the trigger at the Japanese lieutenant standing not far from the traitor. A bullet seemed to have eyes, shooting straight into the lieutenant's brow.

  The Japanese army staff officer saw this scene and immediately said to the two squadron leaders beside him: "You two squadrons immediately split up to search around!"

  Two squadron leaders heard the order and immediately led their troops to search around. At this moment, Yang Chunxiao and his ten men, who were hiding in the surrounding area, also started targeted shooting at the Japanese army!

  Suddenly, gunfire erupted all around, and with each shot, a devil would fall to the ground. Seeing his soldiers falling one after another, the Japanese army's chief of staff was stunned! After a moment's thought, he immediately ordered the telegraph soldier beside him: "Send a telegram to the regimental commander at once, requesting support!"

  Upon hearing the order, the signal soldier had just turned around and arrived at the telegraph machine to prepare for transmission. At this time, Hua Lieyang, who was paying attention to the enemy command post, fired two shots in a row without hesitation, rolled over, and hid behind a large stone.

  Just as he was in position, Hua Lieyang saw three devils walking towards his location through the sniper scope. Seeing this scene, Hua Lieyang smiled and said: "Here come three more prey, today's business is not bad!" As he spoke, Hua Lieyang aimed at a grenade on a Japanese soldier's waist and pulled the trigger.

  A gunshot rang out, followed immediately by a sharp explosion. Just as the explosion sounded, Hua Lieyang had already changed direction again.

  Upon hearing the sound of the hand grenade explosion, the Japanese army's chief of staff immediately pointed in the direction of the blast and ordered: "Artillery, provide covering fire on that location!"

  The Japanese artillery, upon receiving the order, immediately set up their mortars and fired shells at the place where Hua Lieyang had just hidden. "Boom... boom..." A series of mortar explosions rang out, and the Japanese chief of staff picked up his binoculars to observe. Not far away, Yang Chunwei saw the reflection on the lens of the binoculars and immediately turned his gun towards the spot where the reflection was coming from, pulling the trigger without hesitation. A bullet pierced through the binoculars and flew directly into the brain of the Japanese chief of staff.

  In the blink of an eye, with the fall of the Japanese commander's troops, the entire Japanese battalion was suddenly thrown into chaos. Seeing the Japanese army's disordered shooting posture, Hua Lieyang suddenly realized that there was a problem with the Japanese command! Thinking of this, Hua Lieyang immediately shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, get down!" As he spoke, Hua Lieyang continuously rolled and dodged the Japanese army.

  The Japanese army, who were wandering around like headless flies, heard the cry of Hu Lieyang and immediately searched for the source of the sound. At the same time, Yang Chunxiao suddenly realized that an opportunity to rescue people had arrived! So Yang Chunxiao immediately sent out a signal!

  After seeing Yang Chunxiao's signal, the other teams around immediately took action.

  Hua Lieyang ran all the way, occasionally turning back to fire a few shots. Soon, the Japanese troops around the village were attracted by Hua Lieyang. As he saw the Japanese troops closing in, a devilish smile suddenly appeared on his face. After running for a while, Hua Lieyang's clothes immediately blended into the surroundings and hid him from view.

  Hua Lieyang soon dodged the Japanese army's encirclement. Watching the Japanese army retreat further and further away, Hua Lieyang smiled as he took out several hand grenades from his body and began to set up traps and pitfalls. After completing all this, Hua Lieyang returned to the vicinity of the village with a smile on his face. At this time, Yang Chunxiao and others came over.

  Yang Chunxiao saw Hua Lieyang and suddenly said with a face full of anger: "Ji Ting, from now on you are not allowed to take risks like this again! If something happens to you, we uncles will be too ashamed to live!" Hearing Yang Chunxiao's words, Hua Lieyang smiled and scratched his head, saying: "Uncle Xiao, I know! How are the villagers doing now?"

  Yang Chunxiao looked at Hua Lieyang, shook his head and said: "Don't worry! They are already safe!" As soon as Yang Chunxiao finished speaking, a series of explosions sounded.

  Hua Lieyang heard the explosion and immediately said, "Quickly! The little devils are back!" Upon hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Yang Chunxiao quickly led the people to grab Hua Lieyang and hastily leave.

  After walking on the road for seven days, Hua Lieyang suddenly heard the sound of a car coming from not far away. Upon hearing the sound, Hua Lieyang smiled and said to Yang Chunxiao: "Uncle Xiao, we can finally stop walking!"

  Yang Chunxiao heard Hua Lieyang's words and smiled slightly, saying to Yang Chunfeng beside him: "Let's see how lucky that person is behind!"

  Soon, Yang Chunxiao led his men to ambush on the side of the road with Hua Lieyang. Not long after, a truck with a Japanese flag painted on it slowly came into view. Seeing this lone truck, Yang Chunxiao said to Yang Chunlei: "Take out the little devils with sniper rifles! We'll leave the vehicle!"

  When Yang Chunxiao heard the words, Yang Chunlei took out the silencer and installed it on the sniper rifle, aiming at the driver of the Japanese army and pulled the trigger. After a faint gunshot sounded, the driver of the Japanese army hit his head on the steering wheel, and the car crashed to the side of the road.

  Seeing this scene, Yang Chunfeng quickly ran up to the truck and quickly got in to control it. The truck stopped steadily in front of Hua Lieyang and others. "Brothers! We don't have to walk with two feet anymore!" Hearing Yang Chunfeng's words, Hua Lieyang smiled and sat into the driver's room with Yang Chunxiao. Others followed suit and got on the truck one after another.

  The car had been driving for a while when Yang Chunlei suddenly pulled open the curtain connecting the driver's compartment and said to Hua Lieyang, "This car is loaded with a whole arsenal of weapons! All bullets and hand grenades!" Upon hearing Yang Chunlei's words, Hua Lieyang immediately furrowed his brow and said, "Then it's very likely that there are enemy military vehicles behind us! It seems we need to speed up and shake off the devils behind us!"

  Just as Hua Lieyang's words stopped, Yang Chunlei said: "The devil's car is catching up! There are also motorcycles!" As soon as Hua Lieyang heard Yang Chunlei's words, he decisively said: "Get rid of the tail behind!"
