Chapter 124: Slaying the Pack of Wolves (Part 2)

  The anti-Japanese general Wang is invincible

  A machine gun squad was stationed at the exit of the valley, and as ordered by Dong Li Mao beforehand, they did not expose themselves.

  The dozen or so scouts sent out by Matsushita Nagayoshi, upon hearing the sound of gunfire in the valley, immediately took up their arms from the pack horses and turned back to prepare to rescue the main force behind them.

  It's no wonder that the Wild Wolf Dare to Die Team, this vanguard reconnaissance squad, didn't retreat from the original road, but instead split into two groups with rich combat experience, using the woods on both sides of the road as cover, quickly and quietly closing in on the mountain pass exit. However, what they never expected was that there was already a machine gun squad waiting for them at the mountain pass exit.

  The soldiers of the machine gun squad did not expect that these dozen or so devils would appear from the mountain forest. Originally, all the machine gun muzzles were aimed at the road leading out of the valley, but when they found that the little devils were approaching from both sides of the mountain forest, they immediately adjusted their response measures, turning the ambush into a blocking action. Every soldier was clear in his mind that he absolutely could not let these dozen or so little devils enter the valley.

  When the devils of a dozen or so vanguard reconnaissance teams were about to approach the machine gun position within thirty meters, the soldiers of the machine gun squad opened fire. They used large trees or rocks as cover and fired dense shots at the little devils, but the effect was not very ideal, only killing or injuring a few of those in front, while the little devils behind immediately hid behind trees to counterattack. This small-scale battle was deadlocked at the exit of the valley, with both sides forming a stalemate. The machine gun squad relied on its strong firepower to suppress the enemy, not daring to show their heads, seemingly gaining the upper hand.

  There were seven or eight devils who had not been killed, they did not want to fight such a stalemate, their goal was to rush into the valley to rescue the surrounded troops. The leading soldier led his men to quietly move up to the high places on both sides of the mountain, leaving only two people in front to pretend to attack, planning to go around behind or flank the machine gun squad and pull out the firepower points on both sides of the road.

  In this case, the soldiers of the machine gun squad did not notice, but were seen by a sniper soldier under Wang Jia Gui.

  Machine gun fire crackled from the direction of the mountain pass exit. A sniper, hiding behind a large tree, was relatively close to this position, so he turned his rifle, which had been aimed at the entrance to the valley, around and used his scope to see that on both sides of the road at the exit of the valley, little devils were starting to move into the higher mountains. He shot and killed one of them who had already reached the left side.

  The devil who was shot, rolled down from the slope and fell beside two soldiers of the machine gun squad at the left side of the road junction. Fortunately, he rolled to their side, otherwise the soldiers of the machine gun squad would have been in big trouble. The two soldiers saw the little devil rolling down and immediately raised their guns to aim at the mountain slope on the side, just in time to see a little devil raising his gun to sweep them. The machine gun fired first, shooting the little devil's body like a beehive. One of the soldiers shouted loudly to remind his comrades: "Watch out for the devils on the mountain slope!"

  The two of them ran decisively towards the mountain slope, having just run a dozen or so meters when a burst of gunfire came sweeping down from the mountain slope. One soldier was shot down and another was hit in the thigh. He immediately took cover behind a nearby tree, shouting at his fallen comrade: "Lai Di, if you still have breath, give me an answer!"

  The warrior who was shot down by the little devil was nicknamed Baldy, his abdomen was hit by two bullets and he didn't die. He lay on the ground behind a rock, pressing his hands against the blood gushing out of the two bullet holes in his belly, enduring the intense pain, and answering intermittently: "Don't mind me... Monkey... Quickly take down that damn hybrid..."

  Hearing his comrade's response, Da Naozi knew he was still alive and loudly replied: "Hold on for a moment, I'll kill this son of a bitch!" As soon as the words left his mouth, the enemy fired another arrow in his direction.

  The one who wounded two soldiers was a little devil hiding behind a tree, less than ten meters away from where the two soldiers fell.

  The warrior nicknamed Monkey, as agile as his nickname, after the opponent finished a sweep, he hugged the machine gun and suddenly rolled to the right. His foot was injured and he couldn't get up, but the roll was still very smooth. He rolled to the side of the tree where the enemy was hiding and could see half of the enemy's body. Monkey's machine gun fired angrily, almost sweeping away the tree and knocking down the enemy.

  The sniper squad soldier hiding behind the big tree also helped the machine gun squad shoot and kill two little devils who had flanked their flank, and the rest of the devils were also shot dead by the soldiers of the machine gun squad. This small-scale battle at close range was won at the cost of two special duty company soldiers being seriously injured.

  At the same time that the machine gun squad was blocking the enemy's vanguard reconnaissance team from retreating, Liu Yuzhang and his reconnaissance platoon also arrived at the entrance of the valley.

  Liu Yudong reported the change in enemy situation to Dong Li Mao, and without time to let his subordinates bury the old men, women and children who died in Mangga village, he led the reconnaissance team to pursue Song Xiaolong and others. In order not to be discovered by the hidden sentries left behind by Song Xiaolong, they did not take the mountain path, but instead divided the reconnaissance team into two groups, chasing forward from the mountains on both sides of the road.

  When Dong Li Mao and his men launched the ambush, Liu Yu Dang's scouting team was still about two to three kilometers away from the entrance of the valley. After hearing the bugle call and intense gunfire ahead, Liu Yu Dang ordered his team to speed up their advance. According to Dong Li Mao's plan, Liu Yu Dang's scouting team had the final task of sealing off the exit, preventing the Japanese vanguard from retreating.

  From the sound of the bugle to the explosion of the hand grenade, it was all over in less than two minutes. Then there were sporadic gunshots. Liu Yuzong thought he hadn't tightened his pocket opening tightly and the battle would be over. However, after less than a minute, dense gunfire came from the front again. He then realized that his men were slow and couldn't arrive at the mountain pass entrance in time to block the enemy's escape route. He was anxious but had no better solution because they weren't on a road, and there was no path to walk on the steep slope. So he ordered his brothers on both sides to go down the mountain, take out the few isolated sentries first, and then rush forward along the horse trail.

  Matsumoto Nagayoshi set up several ambushes behind, but they did not realize that they were being followed. After hearing the gunfire from the front, they no longer cared if there was anyone following them and began to rush forward quickly, seemingly also wanting to support Matsumoto Nagayoshi who had been ambushed.

  But they were too late, Liu Yudong's scouting team, like heavenly soldiers descending from the sky, rushed down from the mountains on both sides, and before these few sentries could understand what was happening, they all lost their souls.

  After Liu Yudong and his men cleanly took out the sentry, they ran forward, not even two minutes later. At the mountain pass exit, the machine gun squad cleared out the Japanese vanguard reconnaissance team. The reconnaissance platoon finally arrived at the entrance of the pocket formation. Liu Yudong waved his hand to both sides of the road and the forest, and the reconnaissance platoon immediately split into two groups, climbing up the mountains on both sides. Just as they entered the mountain forest, a dozen or so little devils rushed down from the front of the valley entrance.

  These dozen little devils, Song Xiaolonggui only realized that the rear was also cut off when he heard gunshots behind him. He then ordered his men to block the reconnaissance platoon that followed, with the goal of delaying for a while, waiting for the people on both sides of the valley to rush towards the center of the valley, planning to turn the battle from being passive to active.

  A cornered beast will still fight, a trapped wild animal will never give up any chance to break free from its cage.

  Matsushita Nagataka and his subordinates all knew that fighting to the death was death, and not fighting was also death. It's better to fight with all one's might and make a desperate bid for victory, even if it means going down together like fish in a net.

  But Matsushita Chōki didn't expect that he would encounter the greatest enemy of his life. Even after half of his leg was broken, he still thought that he had only encountered an ordinary combat unit of the middle team, and did not think that he would encounter a special operations unit led by Dong Li Mao. Although before departure, the head of the Aung San Intelligence Department, Yamada, who was burned by Dong Li Mao with an iron rod, repeatedly told Matsushita Chōki about the cruelty and terror of Dong Jia Cheng's methods using his own personal experience, and even gave him some scattered personal information about Dong Jia Cheng. However, in Matsushita Chōki's eyes, all the generals of the expeditionary army were not worth mentioning, let alone a small special operations unit leader like Dong Li Mao. He was so confident that he even hoped to encounter Dong Jia Cheng in this operation, so that he could eliminate the special operations unit and cure the disease that made the Imperial Japanese Army tremble at the mention of Dong Jia Cheng's name.

  More and more Japanese devils moved to the mountain forest on both sides of the valley, Wang Jia Gui's sniper squad could only shoot a small part of the devils that they could see, and they also faced the danger of being surrounded by the little devils. Wang Jia Gui had no choice but to whistle an order for the soldiers in the sniper squad to temporarily retreat from behind the big tree.

  Those little devils occupying the left and right sides of the valley to the high point, actually organized an effective counterattack, light and heavy machine guns and submachine guns firing at Dong Li Mao and others.

  Dong Li Mao and Zhang Da Li's machine gun squad was pinned down by the intense firepower of the devils in the woods on both sides, unable to get up and counterattack. He heard the gunfire at the mountain pass exit cease, knowing that the machine gun squad had successfully completed their mission. For now, they only needed to deal with the devils on both sides and at the entrance of the valley. As long as Liu Yu Zhuang's scouting squad arrived, they could take down the remaining hundred or so men of Song Xia Chang Gui in one fell swoop.

  "Liu Yudong and the others should have arrived too, right?" Dong Li Mao muttered in a low voice. As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of gunfire and hand grenades came from the entrance of the mountain valley. He smiled: "Damn it, the future son-in-law of the Heavenly Emperor's family, see how you can escape from my hands! I'll capture you alive and fix your damn self!"

  Matsushita Nagataka arranged a dozen or so back-and-forth ambushes against Liu Yuzhang's reconnaissance squad, but the reconnaissance squad was swept away by a burst of gunfire and more than a dozen hand grenades, all turned to dust in less than thirty seconds.

  "Brothers! Don't forget that son of a bitch who ordered the killing of our fellow villagers! We must leave him alive! Can't let him die so easily! Give those dog-fucking bastards a good beating!"

  The warriors of the reconnaissance squad were from the new 38th Division's reconnaissance company. The officers and men of the new 38th Division had been trained by General Sun Li-ren in Guiyang, making each one as fierce as a beast. What's more, they were from the reconnaissance company's sharp knife squad, which was even more formidable. These people almost all knew martial arts, with exceptional skills, and even if they were unarmed, three or five ordinary people couldn't take down any of them. After being equipped with Dong Li Mao's US-style special forces gear, this group of wolf-like young men had their combat strength increased by at least one level.

  They were all bloodthirsty men, good at killing devils. Having witnessed the massacre of men, women and children in Mangga Village, they hated these devils even more. Now, seeing this group of guys who were less human than wild wolves, each one charged forward bravely, pouring out their hatred with the submachine guns in their hands, sweeping towards the mules and people on the narrow road at the entrance of the valley.

  Matsushita Nagayoshi leaned against a pine tree by the roadside, where a medical officer was fixing his thigh and calf with two wooden sticks. Suddenly, dense bullets shot from both sides of the road. He pushed away the medical officer, picked up a samurai sword beside him, swung it to cut off his knee that was only connected by a piece of skin, and his calf separated from his thigh. Matsushita Nagayoshi seemed not to feel any pain, supported himself with his left hand on the pine tree, stood up, held out his right hand still dripping with blood from his body, pointed the sword tip at the mountains and forests on both sides, and let out a final battle cry to his subordinates: "Kill..."
