Chapter 35: Annihilating the Devilish Reinforcements Flying Over the Web

  Han Da Tou saw the little devils start to sweep for mines and didn't disturb them, only keeping a distant watch. Their mission wasn't to wipe out the devils' reinforcements but to drag things out and buy time for Liu Feng's group to annihilate the devils at Dong Da Xin stronghold. This was a special task assigned by Liu Feng, who forbade them from randomly firing their guns in order to kill more devils and thus exposing themselves.

  The enemy's sapper only explored thirty meters, but it took half an hour and triggered more than a dozen bullet mines. Nakamura was sweating profusely. At this rate, when would he be able to reach Dongdaxin?

  So far, a small team of devils has lost six or seven people, while a medium-sized team of fake soldiers has suffered dozens of casualties, with more than 20 deaths and over 30 injuries. According to the calculation that each injured person needs corresponding rescue personnel, a medium-sized team of fake soldiers has already lost nearly half of its strength.

  But the enemy obviously had only one or two attackers, and so far not a single hair of theirs was hurt. When did the Eighth Route Army have such strong combat effectiveness?

  If I couldn't arrive at Dongdaxin on time and Dongdaxin was taken by the Eighth Route Army, then I would probably be sent to a military tribunal.

  He didn't know how large the minefield was, nor did he know how long it would take to explore this road. The despicable Chinese never dared to fight face-to-face with the Japanese Imperial Army, but instead adopted this underhanded ambush tactic. Unfortunately, in the Japanese Army's manual, there wasn't a very good way to counter this kind of sneak attack. Up until now, the Japanese devils had never seen this combination of bullets and mines, which left Nakamura at a loss.

  ……

  The Japanese reinforcements from Feixiang County and Donggao Village were all shot by Liu Feng's sniper team. The commanders of the reinforcements from Feixiang County and Donggao Village were not as lucky as Nakamura, one had his truck blown up directly, while the other got off the car and waved a command knife to command the devils, only to be hit in the head by a sniper bullet.

  The two troops were blocked by bullets and snipers without exception, and they were not used to the way the Eighth Route Army fought. They didn't have a good way to respond, so they could only send engineers to sweep for mines. As long as the engineers swept for mines, the snipers wouldn't shoot, but if they tried to charge forward with trucks, the snipers would kill the drivers.

  As a result, Liu Feng and his men cleared out the Japanese puppet army from Dongda Xin, and after sweeping the battlefield, they were still blocked on the road.

  ……

  When Liu Feng led the assault team back with a full load, it was already afternoon. They arrived at Han Dingtou's sniper position and saw the situation of the Japanese puppet army. Liu Feng immediately decided to eliminate this group of devils.

  Liu Feng quickly commanded the assault team to deploy, setting up mortars and grenade launchers. This time, they attacked the Dongda Xin stronghold again, capturing another mortar and three grenade launchers, as well as a large quantity of ammunition. Liu Feng ordered an immediate attack on the devils' puppet army trapped on the highway using the mortars and grenade launchers.

  "Boom boom" "Dong dong dong", the sound of mortars and grenade launchers rose and fell, this time a total of two mortar shells and six grenades landed on the heads of the Japanese puppet army.

  Nakamura lieutenant was an old devil who had been through many battles, and as soon as he heard the sound, he immediately knew that he was done for. Before he could even give a retreat order, shells landed on the truck and among the devils.

  "Boom, boom" explosions merged into a piece. The devils and puppet troops were on the completely exposed highway, suddenly attacked by so many shells and grenades, the lethality of the shells increased several times.

  It immediately became a scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere. However, Liu Feng did not have the idea of saving artillery shells at all, but instead ordered the mortars and grenade launchers to keep firing.

  As the mortar fired, Liu Feng's assault team also opened fire with their various weapons.

  When each mortar and grenade launcher had fired five rounds, Liu Feng ordered a halt to the firing.

  Then the battlefield suddenly fell silent, and all that could be heard were some moans on the highway, but there was no more gunfire.

  Liu Feng waited a little while longer before ordering the assault team to go up and sweep the battlefield. He also gave orders not to take prisoners.

  Upon hearing Liu Feng's order, all team members were stunned and then looked at Lin Xuejun and Chen Zhi Kui.

  Lin and Chen looked at each other, then Chen said, "Let's listen to the Chief of Staff."

  The squad members immediately charged forward with their bayonets, and most of the Japanese and puppet troops on the battlefield were blown to pieces by shells, leaving only a small number wounded, groaning on the ground. However, the assault team members rushed up like wolves, and soon the battlefield was filled with mournful cries. That was the sound of the Japanese and puppet troops being stabbed to death.

  "There's another devil officer here, he hasn't died yet!" A team member suddenly shouted out loud, forcing a devil lieutenant officer out with his bayonet.

  The lieutenant, covered in wounds and with a crippled leg, his face smeared with blood, grasped a command dagger in both hands, his small eyes gleaming with ferocity and despair as he glared at the surrounding troops, shouting: "I want to see your superior officer!"

  Liu Feng stepped forward and stood in front of him, saying coldly: "I am the commander. Is there anything you want to say before you die?"

  Nakamura Toshio said fiercely: "You are not brave warriors, you even kill the wounded, you are beasts!"

  Liu Feng said: "May I ask, is this the territory of which country? You are burning, killing, looting and robbing on Chinese soil, do you still have any reason? People like you, even calling you beasts would be an insult to the word beast!"

  "Your massacre of the wounded is a violation of the Geneva Convention." Toshio Nakamura continued to shout.

  Liu Feng said: "May I ask, is Japan a signatory country? Is China a signatory country?"

  "Uh!" Nakamura Toshio was suddenly speechless.

  Liu Feng said: "Since we are not contracting parties, what else is there to say?"

  Nakamura Toshio said: "I challenge you to a duel, let's die like warriors!"

  "Cut!" Liu Feng directly raised the box gun, "bang bang bang" three shots knocked Nakamura Toshio to the ground, and then said, "Are you worthy?"

  Nakamura Toshio covered his wound and pointed at Liu Feng with a tragic expression, finally falling to the ground motionless.

  "Listen up, comrades! We are the assault team. We don't have any face to lose against the enemy, nor do we need to show off our bravery through bayonet charges. If we can avoid close combat with the devils, we won't engage in it. If a problem can be solved with artillery shells, we'll use artillery shells. If it can be solved with bullets, we'll definitely use bullets. On the battlefield, individual bravery is worthless. We are special troops, and trading one of our men for an entire company of devils isn't worth it! Do you all understand?"

  The team members still hesitated and went to see Captain Lin and Commissar Chen, but Liu Feng shouted again: "Did you understand?"

  "Got it!" The team members replied.

  "What the...! Why are you all like women? Are you humming or what?! Speak louder for me!" Liu Feng yelled.

  "I understand!" This time both Captain Lin and Commissar Chen shouted loudly, their voices carrying far away.
