Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

The next day, at the break of dawn, a gentle blue-purple color gradually appeared on the horizon of the sky. When the first ray of sunlight shyly peeked out from the clouds and covered the earth with a thin layer of golden gauze, Lieutenant Colonel Kurosaki's footsteps seemed particularly heavy as he walked out of Phoenix City.

His eyes revealed deep attachment as he looked towards the Fire Phoenix City Lord reluctantly.

In the eyes of Lieutenant Colonel Kurosaki, the Lord of Fire Phoenix City was like a goddess who had descended to the earth, and he could not extricate himself from her.

However, even though he was extremely reluctant and helpless, he had to leave Phoenix City temporarily.

But he had already made up his mind that the Lord of Fire Phoenix City would definitely be in his pocket.

At this moment, he just didn't want to use force.

Having the same idea as Aoki, Kurosaki also wanted to conquer Fire Phoenix with his charm, which would give him a greater sense of accomplishment.

Of course, if he really can't get what he wants, then it's not too late for him to use force.

Last night, he thought about this matter for a long time and finally realized one thing: it was unrealistic for him to throw himself into the arms of Huo Feng, who had a proud personality, just after he arrived.

So he decided to redefine his own personality and portray himself as a hero who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and would fight for the Empire of Japan all his life.

Of course, he didn't know that if he set himself up as such a character, Huo Feng would definitely stab him in the back. You are a loyal and patriotic devil, why did you come to China?
Of course, Huo Feng has actually already done this and sold Heisaki to Duanwu.

The Lord of Fire Phoenix City stood at the city gate with a polite yet distant smile on his face.

There was a hint of perfunctoriness in her actions, but she still sent Lieutenant Colonel Kurosaki out of the city gate with courtesy.

Kurosaki was reluctant to leave, but finally left in the car, looking back every few steps.

The Japs' army set out, just as aggressively as when they came.

However, compared with the time they came, there were more than twenty more trucks carrying food, and the hundreds of Japanese soldiers could only follow behind the trucks and eat dust.

The devils walked further and further away, but Huo Feng smiled slightly. She immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and returned to her city lord's mansion.

············
At the same time, preparations for the Dragon Boat Festival are being made in full swing.

The mines have been laid, and it's the same old trick. The Chunjianghao guerrillas most commonly use chain mines.

This type of mine is like igniting a mine, which will cause the entire mine array to explode, and the speed is very fast, giving the enemy no time to react.

The disadvantage is that if the fuse breaks accidentally, the entire mine array becomes useless.

Just like a thunder bomb, if you ignite a landmine at close range, you will be blown to pieces.

Of course, since the Dragon Boat Festival, this minefield naturally does not have this disadvantage.

In addition to improving the minefield, Duanwu also increased the number of fuses from one to two to ensure that the minefield would be detonated.

At this time, Duanwu and others had buried more than 300 mines, stretching for about three kilometers.

But Duanwu felt that it was still too few. The Japs had a lot of people, about four times as many as the guerrillas.

So three hundred mines may seem like a lot, but on average, there aren't that many.

Ma Pingan sat next to Duanwu and said, "One mine must kill at least three devils, only then will we have a chance of winning!"

Duanwu thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, so the engineer who ignited the minefield this time is the key."

At this point, Duanwu looked at Ma Pingan and said, "Old Pan, I'll leave this job to you."

Ma Ping'an waved his hands and said, "I can't do this. This burden is too heavy." Ma Ping'an is very self-aware. If it is a smaller minefield, he can still control it. However, to detonate such a large minefield, he needs to look at the overall situation. Even a little negligence will lead to the failure of this ambush plan.

Duanwu looked at Long Qianyan again, and Long Qianyan also waved his hand.

Obviously, he had the same idea as Ma Ping'an, thinking that he did not have the ability to control such a huge minefield.

He was not afraid of taking responsibility, but he was afraid that he did not have the ability, thus affecting the entire battle situation.

So the arduous task of igniting the entire minefield fell on Duanwu again.

They lay in the dense woods, stretching for about 2.5 kilometers along one side of the mountain path in the forest.

Duanwu had no other options. Ambush of more than 300 people for nearly 3 kilometers was already the limit. If the troops were to be divided into two groups, it would definitely be a death march.

Time passed minute by minute, and around noon, the sound of the Japanese engine could be heard from afar.

The sound was faint and vague at first, then gradually became clearer, accompanied by the roar of the tracks rolling over the ground, coming from far away and getting heavier and heavier.

At this time, some soldiers began to get agitated.

Although this was not the first time they had been ambushed, the heavy pressure from the large number of devils still made many people sweat in their palms.

Duanwu had already made arrangements for this. There were several veterans in each group to lead the recruits and remind them not to be nervous at all times. They just had to wait quietly for orders.

However, at this moment, the leading Japanese truck suddenly opened fire, and bullets swept through the woods as if they were free.

The branches and leaves in the woods were instantly shattered by the bullets, and wood chips flew everywhere.

Some bullets even whizzed past the soldiers' heads and hit the trees next to the guerrilla fighters.

The soldiers were a little nervous, thinking: "Has the enemy discovered us? But the enemy has not yet entered the ambush circle, what should we do?"

They all looked in the direction of Duanwu at the same time.

But at this time, Duanwu still looked calm, and just made a gesture to ask them to lower their bodies.

Although everyone didn't understand why, they all did as they were told.

Only Duanwu, Ma Ping'an, and some veterans knew that the Japanese were just trying to alert the enemy.

The Japanese didn't see anyone in the woods at all, they just fired randomly to scare the enemy. If anyone jumped up and ran away, or moved a little, they would be discovered by the Japanese.

Therefore, this group of Japanese soldiers were also very vigilant. They probably saw the scene where Aoki was ambushed, and were frightened, so they resorted to this desperate measure.

But for Duanwu, this is simply child's play. Duanwu has seen everything, even the most cunning devils.

However, he was really worried about these new recruits who were considered veterans under his command.

The reason they are called veterans is that they have fought in more than a dozen battles, big and small.

The reason why they are called new recruits is that their combat skills are not mature enough and they do not have enough combat experience.

So it is possible that someone made a mistake at this time.

But no, because everyone holds on to one belief, that is, to believe in Leader Ye. If Leader Ye hadn't spoken, even if the bullet really hit them, they wouldn't move at all! (End of this chapter)
