Chapter 57: The Final Battle at Yang Manor

  At this moment, the War Eagles brothers hiding on the mountain raised their guns and aimed at the little devils' mortar gunners, precise shooting made the bullets instantly blow up the little devils' heads. In an instant, more than a dozen mortars fell to the ground after a burst of gunfire from seven or eight directions, almost at the same time, many little devils were pressed directly on top of the mortars.

  Chen Shaoqin heard the sound of his brothers' guns and knew they were covering him. He turned around, took down the sniper rifle from his shoulder, quickly pulled the bolt, aimed at the devil's 92-style machine gunner's head, and pulled the trigger. There was only one gunshot. The bullet shot out of Chen Shaoqin's barrel and directly into the little devil's brow, then shot through the back of the little devil's head and into a large tree. The little devil died instantly.

  These accurate shots made the Japanese lieutenant tremble with fear, and all the remaining Japanese soldiers lay on the ground, not daring to move.

  From the opening shot to the complete destruction of the heavy firepower, it all happened in less than twenty seconds. The accuracy of the attack was beyond measure, and what's even more tragic is that he still doesn't know where the people who opened fire on them are. He only knows that those who attacked them would never be the ones who can't withstand a single blow.

  "Captain Yamada, the enemy's marksmanship is so fierce, I think it should be the War Eagle Sniper Group!" Lao San was fortunate that he had been forced by Yamada to go on the charge with those who were fighting desperately. If they had encountered these people hiding in the dark and shooting, his life would have been lost here. Therefore, he immediately climbed up to Yamada's front and said to him, "In order to reduce the loss of the Imperial Army, I suggest we withdraw!"

  "Traitor!" Yamada slapped Old Third immediately after hearing his suggestion to retreat, then shouted at him, "The Great Imperial Japanese Army will never retreat! What you said is an insult to the Great Imperial Japanese Army, an insult to the Emperor's warriors!"

  "I dare not!" Lao San said with great grievance, originally planning to persuade Yamada to retreat together and avoid losing their lives here. But he never thought that Yamada was a madman who would fight to the death even when he knew it was a dead end. He really regretted his previous confidence. Covering his bruised face, he said to Yamada, "I am loyal to the Imperial Japanese Army with all my heart and have no second thoughts. Please, Lieutenant Yamada, understand!"

  Just as Yan Lao San was speaking, he inadvertently raised his head, and Chen Shao Qin immediately found the target in the sniper scope. Another shot rang out, and the bullet flew towards Yan Lao San's head. It's unclear whether it was luck or good fortune, but at the exact moment the bullet passed by, Yan Lao San lowered his head again to talk to Yamada, so the bullet directly knocked off the hat on his head several meters away.

  "I've been shot, my head has been hit!" This sudden move scared Old Three so much that he immediately panicked and shouted loudly, and at the same time stretched out his hands to touch his neck and head, even subconsciously touched his brow. Since Chen Shaocan and others were skilled marksmen, hitting a precise point was an easy task, so touching his brow was just a natural reaction.

  "What the... you little devil! If your head wasn't attached, could you still be talking to me here?" Yamada's anger flared up immediately as he saw Old Third's fear, grabbing his collar and slamming him to the side. Then, drawing the command knife from his waist, he charged forward, bellowing, "The time has come to serve His Imperial Majesty! All imperial warriors, take up your arms and follow me into battle!"

  Yamada deeply knew that Chen Shaoqin had few guns and the snipers responsible for them were not many. As long as the main force rushed up all at once, no matter how many guns the opponent had, they would not be able to kill everyone in an instant. So he adopted this suicidal human wave tactic, letting all the devils under his hand rush up at the same time, in order to achieve his strategic goal.

  All the Japanese soldiers heard Yamada's order and immediately mounted bayonets on their gun muzzles, making all preparations for a fierce battle. Then they all got up from the ground and charged towards Chen Shaoqin, killing sounds shaking the sky, the sand dust trampled on the ground rose from the Japanese soldiers' boots, covering the entire ground.

  The guns in the hands of the brothers on the mountain also became very weak, and single-shot shooting was no match for the impact of the devils' large troops. Although their marksmanship was exquisite, one shot could kill a small devil, but that was just a small devil after all. Therefore, they helplessly watched as the devils rushed towards Chen Shaobin, unable to do anything.

  Chen Shaoqin saw that the little devil's charging direction was on his side, and immediately pulled the gun bolt in his hand, putting the sniper team on fire, shooting at the little devil who was charging forward. The little devil fell to the ground, but the little devils behind him trampled on the corpse of the little devil and continued to charge forward. This momentum was completely using the soldiers' bodies to block Chen Shaoqin's bullets.

  Liu saw Chen Shaoqin being caught off guard, immediately turned around to cover Chen Shaoqin, and pulled the trigger in his hand. However, after hearing a few pops of gunfire, he couldn't fire again because there were no more bullets left in the pistol. Faced with the enemy's charge, what they held in their hands was basically useless, like a fire poker.

  "Retreat, retreat quickly!" Chen Shaoqin saw that the situation was unfavorable to himself and immediately ordered Liu and others to retreat with him. Now he had to outrun the little devils, as long as they retreated to the range of their own position first, they would have firepower to suppress the little devils, and their danger would naturally be eliminated.

  "Charge! The Chinese have run out of bullets, we just need to rush over and capture them!" Yamada saw that Chen Shaoqin and the others had given up any intention of resisting and were fleeing towards the village, so he immediately ordered his devils to continue the pursuit.

  The little devils were desperately chasing forward, while Chen Shaoqin and his men were desperately retreating towards the position, without caring about any situation behind them. At this moment, Chen Shaoqin's ears could hear the sound of bullets whizzing past from the devils' gunfire, he could feel the rain of bullets on his back, but he couldn't care less about these, in his heart there was only one conviction, that is to run, must outrun these little devils.

  At this time, Chen Shaoqin and others appeared in Xue Yumei's line of sight. At the same time, the little devils behind also entered her eyes. She put the gun in her hand on Han Yingzi's waist and said to Captain Han: "Fire, shoot the little devils!"

  "Ah Mei, this is war, can't be impulsive!" Han Yingzhang looked at Xue Yumei with a very difficult expression. Although he knew that Ah Mei was worried about Chen Shaoqin and the others, currently their guns couldn't hit the little devils at this distance. If they fired rashly, it would only expose their target. Moreover, Chen Shaoqin had forced him and the entire company's brothers to take risks here, he couldn't stand that kid, and having some schadenfreude thoughts was not surprising.

  "Shut up, I don't care what method you use, if you don't shoot at the little devil, then get out of our brothers' way, or I'll kill you right now!" Xue Yumei said, her hand holding the pistol moving closer to him again, her excited emotions causing her trembling hand to almost pull the trigger, which could have easily shot a hole through his waist.

  "Hey, don't be impulsive, I'm giving the order to take action now!" Captain Han felt the trembling of Xue Yumei's gun and was afraid that this girl would accidentally fire and get him in trouble here. He could only admit defeat in front of Xue Yumei and immediately ordered his subordinates, "Brothers, use mortars to heavily pound these sons of bitches!"

  "Each gunner, get ready! Target the devils, elevation 200, angle 30, load the shells!" The artillery officer received the order and immediately commanded his men to adjust the distance, then load the shells, "Fire..."

  At that moment, a burst of shells fell from the muzzle, the sound of iron rubbing against each other was extremely piercing, followed by several loud explosions, those shells flew out accurately from the muzzle and hit the little devil troops chasing Chen Shaobin...
