Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2712 Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa—died!

As the Japanese troops moved deeper into Changmagou step by step, the surroundings remained quiet and silent, with only the sound of Japanese footsteps and horse hooves echoing in the fog.

The uneasiness in Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa's heart gradually dissipated. He began to think that his worries were completely unnecessary. How could there be an enemy ambush in this thick fog? Unless their enemies had the ability to predict the future.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, a sudden loud noise instantly broke the tranquility of Changmagou.

boom!

A landmine suddenly exploded without warning under the feet of the Japanese vanguard troops, instantly creating a strong gust of wind.

Mud, gravel, and blood mixed together and flew everywhere like fireworks.

In the center of the explosion, several Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces. Their broken limbs drew strange arcs in the air and finally fell heavily to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, more mines were detonated and the explosions continued one after another.

The short mountain road of five or six hundred meters suddenly turned into a hell on earth, with flames shooting into the sky and smoke everywhere.

The Japanese soldiers who were caught in the explosion were terrified. They had no idea what was happening. They just knew that they were ambushed.

For a moment, screams and cries for help intertwined and echoed throughout Changmagou.

Long Qianyan listened to the explosion and looked through a telescope at the shadows of the Japanese soldiers being blown away in the thick fog, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Amid the continuous explosions, the Japanese vanguard troops were almost wiped out.

Those devils who had managed to escape were also covered in wounds and terrified.

They didn't know what was going on ahead, so they could only crowd together and retreat.

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa was also shocked by this sudden change and stood there in a daze. He knew that he had been ambushed by the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and if he went forward, he might suffer even greater losses.

So he quickly ordered: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to command the troops to evacuate in an orderly manner.

However, in such a chaotic scene, his orders were almost drowned out by the noise of the retreating Japanese.

Having lost their command, the Japs began to retreat blindly. They pushed and trampled on each other, and countless people were injured. Even Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa was helpless.

However, at this moment, when the Japanese retreated and people were crowded together, a loud shout suddenly came: "Hit them, hit them!"

It was Long Qianyan who gave the order at this time, and the reason why he gave the order to shoot now was entirely in accordance with Duanwu's instructions.

Use mines to scare off the enemy, and after the enemy retreats to the predetermined position, fire at them in all directions to destroy the enemy to the greatest extent possible.

So after Long Qianyan gave the order, all the submachine guns and machine guns started firing.

Although they couldn't see the Japanese clearly due to the thick fog, the swaying figures were their target.

Moreover, after the Japanese were scared away, they gathered together like a big meat ball, and could be shot at by anyone who fired at them.

chug! Chuchuchu!

Da da! Da da!

···········

Bullets poured out like a storm, breaking through the thick fog and passing through every Japanese soldier with the breath of death.

Every gunshot was accompanied by the falling figure of a Japanese soldier. Their bodies spasmed and twitched under the impact of bullets, and finally collapsed to the ground powerlessly.

In the thick fog, the devil's figure was looming, but this did not affect the shooting of the anti-Japanese fighters. They relied on their familiarity with the terrain and the tacit understanding between comrades to accurately send bullets into the enemy's chest and head.

The bullets intertwined in the air to form a dense web of death, leaving the devils nowhere to escape.

ah! ~

A Japanese soldier screamed as a stray bullet hit his shoulder. He covered the wound in pain.

He wanted to find cover, but he was surrounded by panicked colleagues and there was no room to hide.

Immediately afterwards, another bullet pierced his head, and he fell to the ground without even a grunt.

Another Japanese soldier was lucky enough to dodge a series of bullets, but just as he showed a look of relief, a machine gun bullet shot out from the thick fog without any warning, and as if it was fate, it hit him between the eyebrows. The Japanese soldier's eyes instantly became empty, and his body slowly fell down, hitting the body of a companion next to him.

Under such shooting, the Japanese soldiers seemed to have become living targets on the shooting range. No matter how they struggled and dodged, they could not escape the fate of death.

Bullets were flying, gunshots were deafening, and the entire Changmagou was shrouded in blood and killing.

Some of the Japanese were hit in vital parts and died on the spot; some were seriously injured and lay on the ground groaning in pain; others were lucky enough not to be hit, but were also frightened out of their wits by the horrific scene. They could only hold their heads helplessly, curl up on the ground, and wait for death to come.

In the thick fog, the bodies of the devils piled up more and more, and their blood dyed the ground dark red. Their faces were full of fear and despair, as if at this moment, they truly realized that what they were facing was not a life-and-death battle, but a one-sided massacre.

As the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces continued to fire, the Japs' resistance became weaker and weaker, and finally they collapsed completely and fled in panic.

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa was among them. His horse was killed by a stray bullet. He hid among a group of devils and ran back the way he came.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, another loud bang was heard, and the Japanese soldiers running in the front were blown to pieces.

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa stopped suddenly. The aftermath of the explosion made him almost unable to stand and his ears were buzzing.

The Japanese soldiers around were in chaos, with cries and screams coming one after another. They ran around like headless flies, trying to find an escape route.

However, landmines are like the unpredictable force that takes lives, hiding silently in the thick fog, waiting for the next victim to arrive.

boom!

There was another loud bang, and a Japanese soldier was blown high into the air and then fell heavily to the ground.

The Japanese soldiers who fell to the ground were covered in blood and flesh, it was a horrible sight.

Beside him, several Japanese soldiers were knocked over by the blast. Some had broken arms, some had lame legs, and their wailing was endless.

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa tried desperately to calm himself down, but the tragic scene before him almost made him collapse.

He knew that he had to escape, otherwise he would die in Changmagou.

However, fate did not seem to favor him. Just as he took a few steps, his feet suddenly went soft and he fell forward.

He was horrified to find that he had stepped on an unexploded landmine, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

"No, don't panic..."

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa muttered to himself, trying to calm himself down. He moved his feet carefully, trying to remove his feet from the landmine.

But at this moment, sparks also appeared from the fuse of the mine.

Of course, Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa couldn't see clearly in the fog. The mines were simply bundles of grenades tied together.

So it was perfectly normal that the mine didn't explode when he stepped on it.

However, the explosion of other mines activated the fuse of the mine under his feet, and the grenade began to emit white smoke like thick fog.

"No!"

Lieutenant Colonel Tokugawa shouted in despair, but it was too late.

The mine exploded instantly, engulfing him in flames and smoke. His figure disappeared in the explosion, leaving behind only a bloody mess and a pungent smell of burning.

The surrounding Japanese soldiers were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, put their hands on their heads, and prayed to Amaterasu for protection.

However, what they were waiting for was a new round of shooting by the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighters.

The submachine guns in the hands of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighters were like sickles reaping lives, ruthlessly reaping the lives of every devil.

In this battle, the Japanese put up almost no resistance and suffered heavy casualties under the continuous attacks of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighters, with almost no survivors.

Their bodies were scattered in every corner of Changmagou. As the sky gradually brightened and the thick fog dissipated, they saw the light of day again!
