Chapter 58: A Fierce and Bloody Charge

  As the shells flew out one after another, they pounded towards the direction of the little devils, instantly causing a large area of continuous explosions. The area with the highest concentration of people was where the little devils were blown into the sky, taking half a day to fall back onto the ground. Meanwhile, on the ground, the little devils lay dead all over the place, and not a few of them didn't even have intact corpses left, only piles of mangled flesh remained.

  The Death God's charge left the oni with nothing but fear, stunned silence. Though these little oni were veterans of many battles, they had never encountered such a brutal fight; the battle had just begun, and already half their number lay dead or wounded.

  Yamada and Yan Lao San, who were chasing Chen Shaoqin, were surrounded by these corpses, with a nauseating bloody smell emanating from all around. Yan Lao San was so affected by the mutilated bodies of the Japanese soldiers that he started vomiting uncontrollably. Yamada, however, gripped his military sword tightly and shouted loudly at the top of his lungs: "Charge forward! The only way to survive is to charge forward!"

  Yamada was well aware that they had been lured into a pre-arranged encirclement by Chen Shaoqin, and what awaited them would be even more brutal firepower. The only way to survive now was to charge forward and fight together, as their own troops would certainly abandon the artillery bombardment. He hastily issued orders for all his soldiers to launch a frontal assault on the enemy position, regardless of casualties, in an attempt to capture the defensive position in one fell swoop.

  Chen Shaoqin saw the little devils rushing towards them even more frantically, and suddenly they rushed onto the position of Captain Han. He gave orders to his brothers behind him: "The second echelon uses hand grenades, pulls the string and holds it in their hands for three seconds, then throws it at the place where there are many little devils. The first echelon concentrates all firepower and strikes the little devils who are rushing in the middle. I only have one requirement for you, which is to greet them wherever there are many people. The third echelon loads bullets, light and heavy machine guns will deal with those little devils who dodge shells and grenade explosions and rush over. Concentrate your firepower and sweep them back, absolutely cannot let them have any chance to step on our position!"

  "Hey! What's going on here? Is this my unit or yours? What right do you have to give them combat orders?" Captain Han felt like he was being marginalized, as if commanding the troops in battle was a big deal, and yet Chen Shaoqin was single-handedly directing everything himself without involving him. Naturally, he wasn't willing to accept someone else taking charge of his men, so after listening to Chen's deployment of tasks, he immediately demanded an explanation for his own rights.

  "The troops are the country's, not yours alone. Now the little devils have reached our doorstep, I don't have time to waste here arguing with you. If you're still a decent person, take up your gun and join your brothers in blocking the little devils, resolutely annihilate this group of little devils before our eyes, and don't let them take another step forward from our faces!" Chen Shaoqin didn't bother to explain much, just briefly clarified some things, then hastily and anxiously shouted at Battalion Commander Han.

  "Ah..." Captain Han originally wanted to say something else, but before he could get it out, Chen Shaoqin walked towards the nearby woods, planning to call his brothers to join the battle. This made Captain Han very unhappy, and in the end, he could only lower his head and mutter, "What kind of person is this? I think he's just a madman, a thorough madman!"

  "What's wrong? Don't you want to carry out the order?" Xue Yumei saw Chen Shaoqin leave, so she put the gun in her hand on Han Yingchang's waist again, forcing him to carry out Chen Shaoqin's order. "If you dare to disobey, I will deal with you according to military law!"

  "You little girl, do you know what military law is? You're talking about military law again?" Captain Han had tolerated the gun in this little girl's hand for a long time now. This little girl was pointing her gun at his waist once more, and he couldn't accept it, but because he was under Xue Yumei's gunpoint, he didn't dare to be too rash, fearing that his impulsiveness would cause Xue Yumei to accidentally fire the gun, and by then it would be too late for regrets.

  "Cut the crap, execute Commander Chen's orders!" Xue Yumei shouted at Han and his men in a serious tone, not giving them any chance to think twice. The battle task had been assigned, and these people had to carry it out unconditionally; otherwise, when the little devils came to their senses, they would be in trouble.

  "What's wrong? Is Xue Yaotou's gun not working properly or what?" At this time, Liu the rascal and Ah Si Xiaoshi arrived at Xue Yumei's side. When he heard the battalion commander say something like that, he didn't say another word and directly pulled out the pistol from his waist and pressed it against the other man's forehead.

  "Good job, good job!" The Korean battalion commander was suddenly pressed by two handguns against himself. If one of them misfired, he would definitely be held accountable here, so he didn't say another word and could only execute Chen Shaoqin's orders without any deductions. He let his brothers divide into three echelons, according to Chen Shaoqin's orders and deployment, forming a thorough encirclement of the little devils. As long as the cannons in their hands opened fire, these devils and traitors would all die on the spot. "Brothers, go set up according to Commander Chen's orders!"

  As soon as the order was passed down by Commander Han, Liu and Xue Yuemei finally felt like they had put down half of the huge stone in their chests. Now all that's left is to keep a close eye on every move the little devils make over there. No one dares to fire the first shot, or else they'll be held accountable by their superiors and no one will get off scot-free.

  At one time, all the brothers took action. The first echelon began to adjust the firing direction and prepared everything for shooting. With just one order, they could immediately conduct reasonable firing, using up the remaining two bases of shells in their hands to try to eliminate as many little devils as possible.

  The second echelon concentrated all the hand grenades of the troops at the forefront of the position, and as soon as the order came, they immediately threw out all the hand grenades in their hands to feed the little devils a full meal.

  And the third echelon has already placed all the light and heavy machine guns in front of the brothers, lying down is to fight against the devils with them, the brothers who are fighting and quarreling here, but now, none of them can be sad, they can only wait for the devils to appear, and then fiercely shoot at the devils...
