Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2555: Bloody battle in Jiapiqiao!

The night was as dark as ink. In the valley of Jiapiqiao, the roar of machine guns tore through the silence of the night. The flames drew angry tracks in the darkness, illuminating every corner of the valley.

Duanwu, holding the machine gun tightly, half-crouched behind a rock, locked his eyes on the Japanese and kept pulling the trigger.

Just as he had imagined, the Japs were guarding the places they had to pass through and fighting a positional battle with them.

There is no chance to take shortcuts, we can only seek a direct breakthrough.

Moreover, the Japanese were careless and left two cross-fire points for Duanwu and Liuge. Duanwu attracted the Japanese's attention head-on, while Liuge climbed behind a tree on the high ground to the left of Duanwu and fired crazily at the Japanese attracted by Duanwu.

Every time Sixth Brother pulled the trigger, there was a fierce burst of fire and roar, which made the Japanese scream in pain.

The machine gun's tongues of fire spewed out in the darkness, engulfing the Japs in fire and smoke.

Of course, the Japanese were not fools, and after suffering a loss, they immediately retreated and no longer wanted to take the initiative.

The Japanese officer ordered loudly: "Everyone must not take the initiative to attack again. As long as we hold this place, our reinforcements will arrive and they will be dead."

So the Japs retreated back behind their previous cover and just fired into the darkness.

Although they couldn't see anyone at this position, they always felt that they were possessed by the god of guns. What if the bullet took a detour and perhaps killed the enemy?

But obviously the odds are lower than winning the lottery.

At this time, the sixth brother had already retreated and said, "We knocked down seven or eight of them, and the rest ran back. Now they won't come out again, what should we do?"

Duanwu fell into deep thought. The Japanese were now hiding in Jiapiqiao and refusing to come out, and there was nothing he could do.

There are steep cliffs on both sides of Jiapiqiao, and only a gravel road in the middle is passable.

Moreover, there are a large number of huge rocks in the valley that can be used as shelters, and the soil from the collapsed cliffs can be dug out to create shelters, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

If he charged head-on, Duanwu would not have the confidence to escape unscathed.

Moreover, Duanwu estimated that there was at least one infantry squad of the Japanese devils in Jiapiqiao.

With this amount of troops, if they were in the jungle or fighting a street battle, Duanwu alone could easily wipe them out.

But unfortunately, this is equivalent to a positional war, and it is dark, so the vision is greatly limited.

Therefore, a strong attack is not advisable.

But Duanwu suddenly had an idea.

Duanwu asked Sixth Brother: "Sixth Brother, how far can you throw a grenade?"

Sixth Brother understood what Duanwu meant and thought that Duanwu wanted him to throw the grenade into the Japanese position.

He shook his head and said, "It's about 150 to 200 meters from here to the enemy's position. I can't throw it this far. The most I can throw is about 110 meters."

Duanwu looked at his sixth brother, then at the big tree halfway up the mountain.

The Sixth Brother laughed and said, “It won’t work even if I climb up a tree.”

Duanwu said seriously: "Sixth brother, have you ever played with a slingshot?"

"·············"

The Sixth Brother was speechless. He instinctively felt that Brother Ye in front of him didn't seem to be up to something good.

He quickly shook his head and said, "I've never played it."

Duanwu smiled and said, "Sixth brother, do you want to play once?"

"·············"

Sixth brother was speechless again and quickly said, "I don't want to play." The smile on Duanwu's face disappeared because he didn't expect Sixth brother to be so uncooperative.

But Duanwu has his own way. He hasn't been nervous for a long time.

No, it’s the spirit of publishing.

Duanwu said solemnly: "Sixth brother, have you ever thought that in these years of war, every Chinese son and daughter who can stand up is an indispensable treasure of the country.

Your power may be small, but it is like a drop of water wearing away a stone, and a pile of sand forming a tower.

Sixth brother, your bravery is like the huge rock in the mountains. Although it is silent, it is indestructible. It is a monument that stands tall in the wind and rain.

Your existence proves that even in the darkest moments, the light of humanity can penetrate the clouds and illuminate the way forward.

You are a true warrior and the backbone of the nation!"

The corners of Sixth Brother’s mouth twitched and he almost died on the spot.

This hymn is for you to sing. If I don't fight with my life, I'm afraid I can't do it.

So the Sixth Brother could only helplessly say: "What bad ideas do you have? Just tell me!"

Duanwu immediately smiled and said, "No one knows me better than my sixth brother."

At this point, Duanwu explained in detail: "Sixth brother, this is what I think. If we can use that big tree as a fulcrum and combine it with some simple mechanical principles, I can send you away with a whoosh."

"・・・"

The Sixth Brother was speechless again, thinking to himself: You really have nothing good to say.

So the sixth brother asked back: "Then climb up the tree and I will show you a mechanical principle."

Duanwu chuckled and said, "Sixth brother, I have to fight the devils. While you are bombing the devils, someone else has to get close to them, right?"

The Sixth Brother quickly said, "I can, too."

Duanwu said: "I have rich combat experience."

The Sixth Brother retorted, "Brother, although you have rich combat experience, when it comes to sneaking around, I am much more flexible than you."

Duanwu said, "You are agile? Let's see who is more agile if we stand together. You look tall and strong, and you will be too conspicuous and easily attract the attention of the devils."

The Sixth Brother curled his lips and thought, "This kid is quite talkative, isn't he?"

But he was not bad either, and continued to refute: "I think you underestimate your sixth brother. Although I am taller than you, it does not affect my flexibility. And if you go up, if you lose your grip, it will not be a joke to fall down. I am on the ground, I can still catch you, right?"

Duanwu laughed and said, "Sixth brother, of course I trust your skills. But, is your shooting as accurate as mine?"

"・・・"

Sixth brother was speechless, because indeed, if it came to a comparison of marksmanship, he was indeed inferior to the other party.

Besides, now is not the time for the two of them to chat and gossip. The real thing is to open a gap from Jiapiqiao and return to Laoyeling.

So thinking of this, the Sixth Brother could only say: "Then let's do as you say, but you're not planning to launch me out, are you?"

Duanwu waved his hands and said, "How can that be possible? You climb up the tree, I'll tie the treetop with a rope, and I'll pull hard to bend the tree. And you get ready with the grenade. When I let go of the rope, you throw the grenade into the valley."

"・・・"

The Sixth Brother was speechless again, and then asked, "Aren't you afraid that you will shoot me out too?"

Duanwu silently took off his armor belt, handed it to the sixth brother and said, "Use this to fix your body to the tree."

As he spoke, Duanwu pulled down a vine whose name he didn't know from a nearby tree and said, "And this, tie it up tightly from top to bottom, it's foolproof!"
