Chapter 125: Capturing Matsushita Nagayoshi Alive
Matsumoto Chōki's loud shout was indeed formidable, and around him were twenty or so men, some with their hands tightly gripping samurai swords, others holding submachine guns and light machine guns, and still others grasping military daggers. The only thing missing was the Type 38 Arisaka rifle, possibly because it was too long and inconvenient to disguise on a pack mule.
Dozens of people shouted in unison, and there was indeed such a momentum. The shouting echoed through the mountains on both sides of the road. They rushed towards the mountain forests on both sides of the road like madmen. Even the military doctor picked up an assault rifle from beside a corpse to prepare for the charge. Unfortunately, he didn't even have time to fire a shot before being killed by random gunfire.
Liu Yudong saw that there were only a few people left beside Song Xiaolong, and he knew they were going to make a final desperate attempt. He loudly commanded his soldiers: "Brothers! Charge..." As soon as the words were spoken, he drew out his saber from behind his back and led the charge.
A ghost with both hands grasping a samurai sword, seemingly a small leader, wailed and hacked the samurai sword diagonally towards Liu Yuzhuang's neck.
Liu Yudong saw the devil coming fiercely, his neck skin could feel the cool wind of the knife edge, he didn't dodge, and used the chopping knife in his hand to meet him. With a clang, the two knives collided and sparks flew out.
The little devil's knife didn't quite reach its target, but with a quick change of mind, the knife in his hand suddenly made a downward slash, swift as lightning, and slanted towards Liu Yuzhuang's feet.
This move is ruthless enough, it's a desperate move. The little devil doesn't care about his own head, chest, or abdomen, he just wants to hack Liu Yuzhang to death. If Liu Yuzhang uses the knife in his hand to slash at the little devil's head or chest and abdomen, then his own legs will also be cut off by the opponent. At this time, dodging is no longer possible.
What a Liu Yukuang, pulling out scallions from the dry land, with one roll backwards, the little devil's warrior knife grazed past his rolling back, chopping empty air, losing balance, stumbling two steps forward, just about to counterattack with another chop, but it was already too late.
Liu Yudong stood firm after a backflip, not giving the little devil a second chance. The machete in his hand chopped down from top to bottom, splitting the enemy's skull with a loud crack. The head split into two halves like a ripe watermelon, still connected by skin at the neck, hanging open on both sides of the shoulders. White brain matter and fresh blood mixed together, slowly dripping down.
The warriors of other reconnaissance teams, some with knives and others with guns, quickly solved all the little devils who rushed into the mountain forest.
Liu Yudong held a hatchet stained with brain and blood, and was the first to rush down the mountain, charging towards Song Chenguang who stood alone under a pine tree like a golden rooster.
Three ronin, skilled in the use of katana, stood guard around Matsushita Nagayoshi, each holding a sword and surrounding him with an air of determination to protect their leader at all costs.
Liu Yudong sneered and threw away the machete, pulling out a handgun from his waist. He was not interested in discussing morality with this group of rascals.
One of them saw Liu Yuzhen pull out a handgun and let out a loud roar as he charged over.
Liu Yudong raised his hand and fired two shots, shooting two blood holes in the chest of the devil who was rushing towards him three steps away, falling backwards with his face up, convulsing his limbs, and dying in no time.
The other two exchanged a glance and followed close behind, one on each side.
Guang Tou Ma followed Liu Yu-dong and the scouting party, he was a real fighter in the special operations company now. He closely followed behind Liu Yu-dong, charging towards Song Xiaolong's side, just in time to see two little devils yelling and pouncing on Liu Yu-dong from left and right. Thinking that Liu Yu-dong had run out of bullets, he shot one of them dead at close range with his submachine gun, while the other was shot dead by Liu Yu-dong with his pistol.
Gou Hao aimed his gun at Matsushita Nagahisa, just about to pull the trigger, when he heard Liu Yuxiang shout: "Don't shoot..."
Liu Yudong was afraid that Guangtou Ma would also shoot Song Xiaogui to death.
"Liu Pai Zhang, kill this bastard and avenge our fellow villagers!" Guang Tou Ma said, standing beside Liu Yu Dong with gritted teeth.
Liu Yudong didn't say a word and stared at Matsushita Nagahisa.
Matsushita Nagataka also stared at Liu Yudong.
At this time, the warriors of other reconnaissance teams surrounded him, glaring at Matsumoto Nagayoshi with anger, pointing their guns at him.
Song Songxia Changgui looked like he had lost too much blood, or was in unbearable pain, his face was deathly pale, but his face was ferocious, a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, suddenly, his hands tightly grasped the hilt of his sword, wanting to turn the blade towards his own abdomen.
Liu Yudong saw that things were not going well and knew that the dog hybrid was about to self-destruct. Before the tip of the warrior's knife could fully turn towards his abdomen, Liu Yudong quickly pounced forward, kicked out with one foot, and landed on the knee joint of the foot that Matsushita Nagahiro was standing on.
Matsushita Chōka had intended to stand and cut his own belly, but he was too slow. Liu Yuzhen's kick sent him crashing to one knee with a thud beneath the pine tree, never to rise again. This posture matched the pronunciation of his name perfectly - he truly became a man kneeling for a long time under the pine tree. The tip of the samurai sword in his hand was stuck into the mud and stones on the ground, supporting his body so that it wouldn't fall over.
Liu Yudong sneered: "You want to die? It's not that easy!" Another kick, kicked on the elbow of Song Xiaolong's tightly grasping knife handle.
Matsushita Nagaki's elbow went numb, and he loosened his grip on the samurai sword. Without the support of the sword, his body lost its balance, and he fell forward, landing with a thud on the ground.
"Drag this dog thing up!" Liu Yuzong spat on the ground and said to Matsushita Kōhei.
Dong Li Mao had specifically instructed Liu Yucong to investigate and block the entrance of the pocket array, but not to rush in, because the reconnaissance soldiers were all wearing casual clothes and might be mistaken for their own comrades by those ambushing inside. So Liu Yucong had someone drag Song Xiaolong up, and they walked to the entrance of the valley, but instead of going in immediately, he shouted towards the inside: "Company Commander... I'm Liu Yucong... all the devils here have been cleared..."
Dong Li Mao heard Liu Yu Cong's shout and thought to himself that things had taken a turn for the worse, wondering if this kid wouldn't also kill Song Xia Changgui.
"Didn't you leave anyone alive?" Dong Li Mao asked loudly.
"There is... an official..." Liu Yudong turned his head to glance at Matsushita Nagayoshi, who was being dragged away by two soldiers, one on each arm.
"Alright... you guys hold your positions first... don't let a single little devil escape..." As Dong Li Mao and Liu Yu Zong were shouting orders, they heard dense gunfire coming from the mountains on both sides. They knew that Zhao Yong and Gou Hao's teams had engaged with the devils in the mountains. He loudly commanded the machine gun squad crouching in the bushes: "Brothers! Split up and attack from both sides! Make sure you aim accurately, don't mistakenly harm your own brothers!" Dong Li Mao was most worried about his own men getting hurt by friendly fire. He always emphasized this issue, thinking that the most unfortunate thing was for brothers to mistakenly injure each other, which was the most tragic thing under heaven.
Dong Li Mao sent Hu San to protect Qie Lan Xiang and the others, which was absolutely right. Otherwise, Dong Li Mao might never have seen Qie Lan Xiang and the other three again.
Hu San held a submachine gun and quickly shuttled through the bushes. When he approached the woods where Knife Lan Xiang and the other three were hiding, he saw five little devils quietly moving towards the position of the four people.
"Knife guard... be careful..." Hu San shouted loudly while raising his submachine gun and firing at the five little devils, knocking one down. The other four immediately took cover behind a tree and began to return fire in Hu San's direction.
Dao Lanxiang and the other three stood up from their ambush position after the battle started, stretched their necks to look into the valley, and saw the little devils and mules on the road falling down in the sound of gunfire. Dao Lanxiang was so excited that she jumped up and down clapping her hands.
"Not good! Even Lian Chang and the others are in danger!" Pan Guangzu looked through his binoculars, and when he moved them to the entrance of the valley, he saw that Song Xiaolong and the others had not followed up.
Diao Lanxiang immediately grabbed Pan Guangzu's binoculars and looked at the entrance of the valley, and what she saw made her anxious to the point of tears: "What should we do? What can be done? Dong Ge and the others still don't know..."
Liu Xingyu shouted loudly: "Quartermaster, let's go to the entrance of the mountain valley and intercept the enemy!" As he spoke, he picked up his submachine gun and was about to rush out of the forest.
Pan Guangzu grabbed the back of Liu Xingyu's collar and pulled him back, saying: "Commander Lian ordered us to protect Knife Guard and Zeng Army Doctor here. If we leave, what will they do?"
Zeng Zifan said, "You two go quickly! I'll protect the knife-wielding guard!"
"No! This is Commander Lian's order! We can't leave!" Pan Guangzu replied.
"Liu, translate! Let's go!" said Zeng Zifan, picking up his gun.
"No one is allowed to go!" Pan Guangzu's heart suddenly became urgent, and he pointed his gun at Zeng Zifan and Liu Xingyu.
Dolan Xiang saw the three men were getting more and more intense, she stomped her foot and shouted loudly: "What are you doing! I don't need your protection! I'll go with you to fight against the Japanese devils!" As she spoke, she took out the pistol Dong Li Mao had given her and wanted to rush towards the entrance of the mountain valley.
"Wait a minute!" At this time, the gunfire and grenade explosions stopped. Pan Guangzu looked at the entrance of the valley and said: "Look! The enemy over there is being attacked! It means that Lian Zhang and the others have already seen..."
Four people eight eyes, all looking towards the mountain valley entrance at the same time.
"Let's not fight about it, just the four of us going won't make a difference anyway. We'll only end up causing trouble for Lieutenant Colonel and the others. Let's just wait here instead." Pan Guangzu plopped himself down at the base of a tree, pulled out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, broke off a piece and started munching on it loudly.
Liu Xingyu also sat down with a huff, muttering to himself: "Liang Zhang is too arrogant! I've killed devils before..."
"Hehe... Translator, come on, have a piece of chocolate, calm down, anyway the little devil will be finished soon, and we four soldiers won't shed blood, it's also something worth celebrating..." Pan Guangzu happily handed Liu Xingyu a piece of chocolate.
Liu Xingyu pushed him away with his hand: "How will our brothers look at us in the future? They'll definitely say behind our backs that we're afraid of death!"
Dao Lanxiang and Zeng Zifan stood there looking towards the entrance of the valley.
"I hope there aren't any more wounded being brought here..." Zeng Zifan said as if in prayer.
At this time, a fierce gunshot came from the machine gun squad at the exit of the mountain valley. Jianlan Xiang turned her binoculars over and exclaimed: "How can there be devils there too?!" She didn't know that it was the advance reconnaissance team sent by Song Xiaolonggui.
"Oh no...! It's terrible! Two warriors seem to be injured..." Kao Lanxiang looked for a while and just saw the scene where Lai Dian and Houzi were both injured.
"Where is it?" Zeng Zifan hastily snatched the binoculars from Dou Lanxiang's hand.
Just then, they heard Hu San's shout and the sound of submachine guns firing, startling Pan Guangzu and Liu Xingyu to quickly pick up the submachine guns beside them.
