Volume 1 Deserter's Bloodbath Chapter 90: Gunshots!
There are large tracts of cotton fields around Luodian, and of course there are also many criss-crossing paddy fields and ditches. The bloody battle of Luodian lasted for so long that not only the residents in the town, but even the people nearby had already fled. The Japanese occupied Luodian but did not gain any benefits from it.
The ones bending over and searching forward were the 43rd Regiment of the 11th Division of the Japanese. They had to search and advance towards Tanjiaqiao, and they would also launch an attack on the road on the other side at the same time.
The Japanese were searching for a small team, which was divided into three directions. The more than 20 Japanese that appeared in Feng E's sniper scope were obviously overstaffed. That was because the Japanese reinforcements had arrived. The Japanese reinforcements were domestic reservists or Ronin in China. They had never experienced the brutal Luodian Battle, and their understanding of the Chinese army's combat effectiveness was still based on domestic propaganda.
Bending over, the Japanese reinforcements, led by the veterans, marched in the drizzle. Their uniforms had long been soaked by the rain, and raindrops began to fall from the edges of their round helmets. They held wet rifles in their hands with the muzzles drooping, and their wet boots made a snapping sound as they stepped on the muddy ground full of water.
"idiot!"
A Japanese soldier stopped and stared at the space in front of him covered with drizzle, but unfortunately he could see nothing.
"Baga, get down, stay alert, and rest for three minutes!"
The sergeant's curses were heard behind him. He was the first to lie down, looking forward with a telescope...
There was nothing but white in the telescope. Feng E, who was more than 150 meters in front of them, was lying motionless in a single-person bunker, as if he had merged with the earth. In the drizzle, the Japanese could not possibly notice him.
"One hundred and fifty meters!"
Feng E let the rain drip from the brim of his hat. The sniper scope became blurry again. He had to take out the cotton cloth in his arms to wipe it, then raised it again. In his previous impression, the black shadows had disappeared, and the Japanese just lay down when he was wiping the scope!
"gone?"
Feng E seemed a little unwilling to give up. He moved the muzzle of his gun slightly, but found that there was still no enemy. Feng E did not move. He still had some patience. He observed the scenery in the vast whiteness, waiting for the enemy to reappear...
"How long has it been? Why haven't the devils appeared yet?!"
In the individual shelter, big guy Min was muttering, and the ammunition handler next to him was also lying down.
"It's all white. Unless the devils appear within a hundred meters, we can't see them!"
The ammunition finger pointed at the drizzle in the sky and said,
"I know, but it's been so long, the Japs should have appeared. Did Feng E make a mistake ?" Big Min was a little impatient, playing with the magazine of the machine gun.
"go ahead!"
Not finding any enemy, the sergeant crawled on the muddy ground for three minutes, then stood up, waved his arms and ordered the Japs to continue searching.
"boom!"
Feng E had been waiting for a long time. The Japanese were crawling on the ground and could not be seen, but once they stood up, they would be very obvious at a distance of 150 meters!
"puff!"
When the visibility was poor, Feng E did not dare to aim at the head. The 7.92 mm bullet penetrated the Japanese sergeant's chest and flew out from his back, leaving a huge bloody hole on his back from which blood spurted out.
“Crack!”
"boom!"
Feng E quickly pushed the bullet forward and continued shooting, with bullets flying towards the Japanese soldier who had just climbed up.
“Puff!”
A Japanese soldier just stood up and found that he was shot. At this moment, the sergeant's body fell into the mud with a plop, splashing a cloud of mud and water.
"Chinese! Get down!"
The Japanese veteran reacted quickly, and while lying down again, he roared loudly.
"idiot!"
The Japanese veteran who was lying on the ground checked the sergeant and soldiers who were shot and found that they were all dead. He raised his gun while cursing, but he didn't know where to shoot!
"Where are the Chinese?"
The old soldier shouted at the devils around him,
"I don't know, I can't see anything!"
It was strange that the Japanese soldiers could see Feng E in the drizzle 150 meters away with their naked eyes. They shook their heads one after another. Even the Japanese veterans could only judge the general direction based on the gunshots.
"Hmm? Gunshots? Encountered enemies in the three rows ahead?"
"Ready to fight!"
When the gunshots rang out, Zhao Liang shouted loudly, asking the first and second rows who were still digging trenches to prepare for battle. As for the trenches that were half-dug, they had to be left alone for the time being.
"Hmm? Where's the gunshot?"
The soldiers, in a panic, had just entered their combat positions when they found that the gunfire suddenly stopped.
"Let's go to the front and see what's going on. How many Japanese are there?" Zhao Liang was anxious and asked a brother to check the situation.
"Huff, huff..."
A brother was running in a muddy field in the drizzle, holding a gun. The bad road surface caused him to fall into the mud after running just fifty meters. Then he got up and continued. His heavy breathing showed that this brother was very tired from digging trenches!
"Hmm? Behind!"
Big Min pointed behind him and kicked the ammunition carrier. The ammunition carrier pointed his rifle backwards and stared at the misty rain ...
The steel helmet, the wet uniform, and the figure crawling forward in the rain looked very much like the Japanese.
"Damn it, a Japanese dares to approach me, I'm going to kill you!" The ammunition man gritted his teeth, pushed the bullets forward, and aimed at the figure in the drizzle.
"Eighty meters, still not clear." The ammunition carrier muttered, his finger already on the trigger.
"Let him crawl forward. He's just one Japanese. I can kill him with my knife!" Big Min said indifferently. He had already replaced the magazine in his hand with a bayonet.
"call!"
The ammunition carrier let out a long sigh and gripped the rifle tightly. Feng E's order flashed through his mind, and he was not allowed to shoot unless he was sure.
"Fifty meters, let's see where you can run!"
The trigger under the index finger of the ammunition hand is about to be pulled to the bottom...
"What's going on? What was the gunshot just now about? How many devils are there?"
The figure in the drizzle raised his head, but what came out was plain Chinese, which stunned the ammunition carrier for a moment!
"Don't shoot! Don't shoot! Damn it, he's one of our own." Big Min shuddered and held down the ammunition carrier's arm. With Big Min's strength, the muzzle of the gun was tilted towards the sky...
"boom!"
The gun finally fired, and the bullet flew diagonally into the sky, scaring the brothers who had just crawled over...
"Fuck you, you bastard. Didn't you hear me? Why are you shooting at your own people?"
The brother who crawled over had sweat on his forehead and cursed loudly.
"It's so hazy, how can I see who you are? What are you doing here?" Big Min asked unhappily.
"The company commander asked me to come over and ask what the gunshots were about. How many devils are there? How far are they from here?"
The soldier, whose subject was successfully diverted by the big guy Min, was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered what he was here for.
"I don't know. Feng E is watching from the front. But judging from the gunshots, there shouldn't be many Japanese! If we can't handle it, we will naturally retreat!" Big Min replied.
"Okay, got it. This trip is really unlucky!" The brother cursed, then stood up and ran back with his back bent...
