Chapter 72: The Devil's Fury and Final Battle

  Chen Shao heard the sound of bullets flying over, his instincts made him duck down, but in this dodging, he accidentally bumped into Xue Yumei, who was standing there with a look of surprise on her face, her heart racing rapidly. The two pairs of fiery lips touched for a moment, and both people were like being electrocuted, quickly pulling away from each other. However, due to gravity, Chen Shao couldn't help but make a second contact, the two pairs of eyes staring at each other in panic, their breathing becoming urgent and uncontrollable.

  Chen Shaoqin finally managed to prop himself up with both hands, trying his best to keep his face and body as far away from Xue Yumei as possible. However, he couldn't suppress the bright red flush on his face: "I... I didn't mean to, it was the little devil's bullet..."

  "Of course not on purpose, or I would have killed you!" Xue Yumei tried to control the awkwardness and helplessness on her face, pushed Chen Shaoqin's body away with one hand, and said with a very serious expression, but that expression, no matter who saw it, couldn't believe that the word "kill" could be realized.

  Chen Shaoqin was pushed away by her, and his mind immediately cleared up. He quickly crawled to the edge of the ridge and carefully observed the movements of the little ghost in front of him. After all, he and Xue Yumei came here for something, not just to flirt and quarrel, so no matter what, he couldn't delay the main event.

  "Lao Liu and his men have made their move!" At this time, several gunshots came from the east of the enemy's position, forming a pincer movement with the firepower of the two companies under Han Zongliang's command. They quickly took out several commanding officers on the front line of the Little Devils, completely disrupting their formation and blocking array. Xue Yumei saw this and excitedly shouted in front of Chen Shaoqin, as if she had seen them wipe out the group of Little Devils in front of her.

  "Do you have to be so surprised? I'm not blind!" Chen Shaoqin turned his head, glared at Xue Yumei and said coldly. He felt that this matter was already in his eyes and didn't need Xue Yumei's reminder. At this moment, what he thought most about was how to support the brothers' battle.

  "I'm not telling you!" Xue Yumei said with a stern face, then pulled out a Mauser pistol from her waist and aimed at one of the Japanese commanders in a triangular formation. Without any hesitation, she pulled the trigger, and a gunshot was heard. A bullet flew out of Xue Yumei's pistol and shot directly towards the little devil commander.

  Suzuki heard the gunshot and keenly sensed that the bullet was heading towards Nomura. In a panic, he immediately tried to grab Nomura, but just as he stretched out his hand, the bullet had already shot towards Nomura's head. Unfortunately, the bullet did not penetrate Nomura's skull, instead it pierced through Nomura's military cap. This sudden event scared Nomura so much that his legs began to tremble.

  "Nomura, it seems that bullet didn't hit you, how...” Seeing Nomura's legs trembling like this, Suzuki was extremely shocked. In his eyes, Nomura was the most excellent soldier and the strongest warrior of the Empire, so how could he be scared into this state by a single shot from a Chinese person? Therefore, he seemed to have difficulty understanding Nomura's actions at this moment.

  "Hah, don't I know?! I'm just shaking with rage!" Nomura heard Suzuki's words and immediately burst into a loud scolding, trying his best to keep his composure, then continued speaking to Suzuki, "Damn Chinaman, I'll remember this shot!"

  "Report to the captain, we can't hold on!" At this time, a soldier rushed towards Nomura under the rain of bullets and reported in front of him. Due to the participation of Liu and others, the little devils had lost many commanding officers, and the commanders in charge were now all corporals and sergeants. If they continued to fight like this, they might not even leave one officer with a military rank behind. Moreover, they no longer had the support of heavy weapons, and with only their Type 38 rifles, they could not withstand the enemy's powerful firepower.

  "Order the signal corps to immediately send a telegram to Inokawa, requesting that the Imperial Guard Corps come over and provide support!" Nomura quickly calmed down and then shouted at Suzuki beside him. He knew that if he continued to rely on these soldiers in his hand and Chen Shaoqin to fight, there would only be one outcome, which was total annihilation, and even he himself might get trapped inside. Therefore, he didn't care about face anymore, but directly ordered Suzuki to find the signal corps.

  "Are those Chinese reliable? They are just our dogs, and they're not even well-trained ones. Will they fight to the death for us, the Great Japanese Imperial Army?" Suzuki was very skeptical about the effectiveness of this order. He thought that they shouldn't entrust their lives entirely to the puppet army, after all, it wasn't really their own troops and wouldn't be wholeheartedly loyal to the Empire.

  "The only ones closest to us are them, and distant water cannot quench present thirst. For the time being, we can only believe in them!" Nomura also knew that Suzuki's concerns were not wrong, but at this moment he simply had no other way out, and could only think of a way to notify those fake soldiers to come and support him immediately. If they didn't come, as long as he could get out, he would definitely skin the leader of the fake soldiers alive.

  Suzuki nodded and turned to walk towards the communication soldier, but before he could get close, Lao Liu shot and killed the communication soldier with one bullet, leaving Suzuki caught off guard.

  Seeing the signal corps being shot dead, Suzuki hesitated for a moment before rushing towards the radio station. He knew that maintaining the radio station was their only way to survive at this time, and he himself could use the radio station. Now that the reporter had been killed, only he could get on it, so he rushed towards the radio station without caring about anything else.

  Chen Shaoqin saw the situation and picked up his sniper rifle, looked through the scope, and fired at the radio that had been dropped on the ground. The gunshot was heard, a bullet was fired, and it flew over the smoky battlefield air, directly towards the direction of the radio. With a loud bang, the bullet penetrated the radio, entered its interior, and destroyed the internal components, making Suzuki, who was running towards the radio, completely desperate.

  "Eight... eight... Chen Shaoqin, I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!" Nomura saw the situation on the radio side through the telescope, witnessed the destruction of the radio station with his own eyes, and his anger immediately swelled up. He pulled out the command knife in his hand and pointed it at the direction where Chen Shaoqin and Xue Yumei were, "Charge for me, kill Chen Shaoqin!"

  At that moment, all the devils emerged from behind the big tree with guns in hand and rushed towards the ridge where Chen Shaobin and others were located. It seemed that Inoue had been thoroughly enraged, this was going to be the final battle with Chen Shaobin...
