Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2429: Sacrifice the pawns to save the chariot and flee in panic!

The appearance of the mysterious sniper forced Aoki and his team to abandon any tactical considerations and just focus on fleeing.

At this point, the direction is no longer important, because no matter which direction you go, stopping means death is approaching.

They were like a group of prey being chased by hounds, desperately searching for a possible glimmer of hope.

The Imperial Army that had originally followed Aoki had already fled in all directions driven by fear and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a trail of chaotic footprints and a few terrified shouts echoing in the dead silence.

Aoki was furious, but helpless, because he no longer had the ability to catch the other person.

As he ran, sweat slid down Aoki's cheeks, making him look very embarrassed.

Aoki felt a huge humiliation rising in his heart.

This was the worst defeat he had ever suffered.

His subordinates fled and only a dozen of his men were left by his side.

There was still a rustling sound coming from the forest. It was obvious that the sniper was not chasing the Imperial Army but was coming towards them.

An inexplicable panic surged in Aoki's heart, and he even thought of the terrible word "death".

"No, I can't die."

Aoki's eyes suddenly became determined and he forced himself to stay calm. Aoki understood that the most important thing at this moment was to survive. Only by staying alive would he have a chance to make a comeback.

So he led the rest of his men and fled madly in all directions.

Duanwu is very patient. He is like a lone wolf, consuming the enemy's strength bit by bit.

In nature, wolves are indeed not the strongest carnivores.

But it must be the most patient and persistent animal.

It can chase its prey for several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers, and when its enemy is weak and tired, it will take action.

Time passed by minute by minute, and I didn't know whether it was dozens of minutes or one or two hours.

Aoki, who ran until he was exhausted, finally stopped.

At this time, Aoki stopped and the other Japanese soldiers lay on the ground as if relieved.

At this moment, they seemed to have been drained of all their strength, and they didn't even want to move their little fingers.

And no one noticed that their team was missing seven or eight people.

When Aoki escaped last time, there were still 16 people around him. But now, including Aoki, there are less than 10 people.

But at this time, all the Japanese soldiers did not pay attention to this. Some of them even thought that even if the mysterious sniper appeared, they would not escape. It would be better to die in the hands of the opponent, which would be more comfortable.

Bang!

The Japs' expectations came true as expected. Just as he was lying on the ground, enjoying the moment of peace, a bullet fulfilled all his wishes.

The Japanese soldier died without even moving his body. He was one of the happiest people to die.

"idiot!"

Hearing the gunshots, Qingmu roared, climbed up from the ground, and immediately ordered: "Defend where you are, the terrain here is favorable to us."

At this time, Aoki and others were on a sunny hillside.

Although the sun was still blocked by dark clouds, a few rays of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone through.

Of course, this is not important. Even if he could determine his direction by the sun, Qingmu did not have the energy to think about these things.

If he wants to survive, he has to give it a try.

The current terrain is very advantageous to them, as they occupy the forest on the slope and have a commanding position overlooking the area.

If they defended this place, at least in the short term, the enemy would not be able to advance any further. But he overlooked one thing, that is, the devils under his command had already run away exhausted.

Moreover, some of the Japanese soldiers fell directly to the ground after stopping, causing calf cramps and screaming in pain.

"Quick, get up."

Seeing this, Aoki gave orders loudly, but it was still too late.

Another bullet came, and a Japanese soldier who happened to be standing in front of him was killed on the spot.

The bullet penetrated the Japanese soldier's body and hit Aoki's left arm.

Although the bullet was blocked by the first Japanese soldier, it still embedded deeply into Aoki's arm.

The intense pain made Aoki break out in a sweat instantly, but he endured the pain and hid behind the tree again.

He knew that the bullet was aimed at him. If it wasn't for his subordinate who blocked it for him, he would probably be the one dead.

He glanced over when the gunshots were heard again and saw another Imperial Army soldier dead.

At this point, the situation was hopeless, and Aoki felt that it was only a matter of time before the other party cleaned out his men.

"Baga, who on earth is that person?"

  Aoki complained in his heart, but he had to face a difficult choice. Should he rush out and die heroically, or should he slip away while his men were resisting the enemy?

It is definitely the last option.

Aoki is not a reckless man who is influenced by the spirit of Bushido.

He was not yet ready to die for the Empire of Japan.

Of course, if he was really obsessed with the spirit of Bushido, he probably wouldn't be alive today.

So Aoki gave two loud orders to defend, took off his clothes and hung them on a tree to prove that he was still there, then ran away.

When the other Japanese soldiers found out, there were only two of them left. When they reported to Commander Aoki, they found that Commander Aoki was missing.

The two devils were very angry that their commander had just abandoned them and ran away.

But at this point, it was too late for the two devils to run. Bullets came without warning, and one of the devils was shot dead on the spot in anger.

Another Japanese soldier went into the woods and also tried to escape, but he fell to the ground before he had run ten meters.

At this time, Duanwu slowly walked up the hillside, loading bullets and checking the corpses of the Japanese soldiers on the ground.

"Did one run away?"

When Duanwu saw Aoki's bloodstained coat hanging on the tree, he knew that the most troublesome Japanese soldier Aoki had escaped.

Duanwu looked around and found blood on the ground.

And this is consistent with the bullet hole on his clothes. In other words, although Aoki escaped, he was injured.

Duanwu smiled slightly and followed the blood trail.

However, on a mountain about 500 meters away from here, Aoki was watching this scene.

He smiled cunningly, because how could he make such a low-level mistake? Leaving a blood trail for the enemy to track?

The bloodstain was meant to lure Duanwu away, and he ran towards Phoenix City.

Before, it was because Aoki couldn't tell the direction and determine his location.

But when he came out of the woods, he found the approximate position of the sun, and then used the basic principle of the direction of the shadow formed by the sun and the pocket watch to quickly determine the direction of Phoenix.

Although he was a little embarrassed at this time, he believed that the woman Huo Feng still did not dare to underestimate him, because he had the entire Great Japanese Empire behind him! .
