Chapter 51: Withdrawal from the Frontline Battle Against the Devil
Chen Shaoqin and the little devils exchanged blows, increasing their firepower significantly. Hand grenades and bullets were almost depleted, but even with a mountain of little devil corpses in front of them, they didn't hesitate to charge towards Chen's position. After a burst of gunfire, the charging little devils left behind another large pile of bodies before retreating, which seemed to give Chen Shaoqin a glimmer of hope.
"Officer Chen, the devils have retreated!" Lao Liu stopped firing his handgun and ran to Chen Shaoqin's side, asking "What should we do now?"
"Step up the firepower, add ten more hand grenades, throw them to my colleagues, and then loudly shout charge! I don't believe the little devils won't fall for it!" Chen Shaoqin was very clear that their current achievements would not attract the little devils at all. What he needed was to increase the firepower again, pretend to charge out, so that the little devils on the other side would definitely determine that Chen Shaoqin would definitely break through from the front and concentrate all the firepower on the front to block Chen Shaoqin's way.
"Got it!" Liu, the adopted son, no longer cared what Chen Shaoqin had in mind. Whatever Chen told him to do, he would do it. After all, they were now brothers of the War Eagle Sniper Team, and obeying orders without condition was the most basic thing. He had no reason to refuse. "Brothers, prepare hand grenades, blow these bastards to death!"
As Liu's order, each brother took out another grenade from his body, made up the number, pulled the string, and threw it to the front of the position after a quick collision. Suddenly, a huge explosion shook the entire forest, leaves fell in shock, forming a unique green sea on the ground.
"Hachigaya, it seems that these Chinese troops really are going to break through from the front!" Matsuda couldn't help but exclaim after hearing the series of massive explosions. "Order the mortar squad, heavy machine gun squad, and grenade launcher squad to all shift their defenses to the front line! Block the advance of this group of Chinese troops on the front battlefield and trap them firmly in the woods across from us!"
"Roger!" The Japanese communication soldier heard the order and immediately bowed, then turned around to contact the troops with the radio, passing down Matsuda's command.
In less than ten minutes after the order was passed down, the devils' mortars and heavy machine guns were moved to the front line, increasing the firepower of the frontal assault. For a time, the sound of machine guns and continuous explosions came from the front, and the bombs exploded around Chen Shaoqin and his men, with rows of bullets shooting at the edge of their hiding position.
"The little devil's heavy firepower has been adjusted by us, now it's time for us to retreat!" Chen Shaoqin's face revealed a smile, as if the little devil had fallen into his own pre-set trap. "Old Liu, take the brothers and Xue Jia's maid to withdraw first, I'll stay behind with Ah Si and Xiao Shi Tuo to cover!"
"This is too dangerous, you take Xue Jia and the brothers to retreat first, I'll cover!" Liu Guai immediately opposed this, Chen Shaoqin was the head of their entire team, if something unexpected happened, what would happen to the team? So no matter what, he couldn't let anything happen to Chen Shaoqin, that's why he made such a request in front of him.
"No! You can't stay, it's an order!" Chen Shaoqin didn't give him any room for discussion, insisting that he lead the troops and Xue Yumei to retreat immediately, while he himself stayed behind with A Si and Xiaoshi Tuo to hold off the devils.
"Yes!" Liu Gang couldn't outdo Chen Shaoqin, and in the end could only agree to lead his troops in retreat. He stood up, called out to his brothers behind him to take their weapons and turn around to leave.
"I'm not leaving, I want to stay and fight!" But at this time, Xue Yumei was not cooperating, with a look of wanting to confront Chen Shaoqin to the end. "Big fool, every time I listen to you, you tell me what to do, but this time, when you need manpower, I want to stay and fight the little devils with you!"
"No way, you have to leave!" Chen Shaoqin turned around and said to Xue Yumei. He didn't plan to let this girl stay at all. He was very clear that their mission this time was a matter of life and death, and it was possible that they would sacrifice themselves here. Leaving Xue Yumei behind would be equivalent to letting her die with them, which was not something he wanted to see. "Old Liu, take her away for me!"
Liu Guai Zi heard the command and immediately walked towards Xue Yu Mei, but he didn't attack her. Instead, when Chen Shao Qin focused all his attention on Xue Yu Mei, Liu Guai Zi suddenly struck the back of Chen's head from behind, causing him to black out and faint on the spot.
"You...". Xue Yumei did not expect that Liu would come up with such a move, and in her surprise, she was more anxious and confused. She looked at Liu with confusion, wanting to ask what was going on.
"There's no time for more explanation, you take care of Director Chen and lead the brothers to retreat from our rear mountain, this place is left to us!"
"Be careful!" Xue Yumei saw that the other party was so serious, and she couldn't find any reason to refuse. Moreover, the little devil had already arrived at their side, and if they delayed any further, none of them would be able to leave. Therefore, she didn't say another word, but only instructed Liu to be careful, then let the two brothers support Chen Shaoqin, and hastily marched towards the small path in the back mountain, not daring to stay for a moment.
Just as Xue Yumei and the others were leaving, the devils' bullets followed, the sparse gunfire gradually became denser, the devils' mortars also started a string of bombardments, the front line of the position was blown out with countless craters, becoming uneven, the dust raised slowly fell from the air, covering Liu and the other three.
Liu, who had been kidnapped, lifted his head and shook off the mud on it. Then he said to Ah Si and Xiao Shi Tuo: "Retreat, retreat quickly!"
The enemy's firepower was concentrated here, and with just the three of them, they were no match. To retreat unscathed, they had to withdraw from the battle first. In short, they couldn't engage in a fierce fight with the little devils; even if the three of them sacrificed themselves, they wouldn't be able to complete their covering mission.
A Si and Xiao Shi Tuo followed Lao Liu in an instant, jumping into the ditch and then running towards the right mountain forest, taking advantage of the smoke-filled gap, the little devil couldn't see their position at all. In this way, Lao Liu and the three of them successfully escaped from the front line of the devils and headed deep into the mountains to meet up with Chen Shaoqin as soon as possible.
When the smoke cleared, Song Tian held a command knife and came to the forest. When he saw that Chen Shaoqin and others were not among the pile of corpses, he was furious, kicked the big tree hard with one foot, and cried out in pain, hugging his foot...
