I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 723 As long as I run fast enough, the Eighth Route Army’s bullets can’t catch up with me!

A regiment of Japanese soldiers, led by Colonel Shigemasa Kawase, commander of the 220th Regiment, were marching hurriedly on the road.

After they left the spring, the results of their sweeping and foraging efforts were not ideal.

So, when Kawase Shigemasa looked at the map and found a town ahead, he was immediately ecstatic.

When he heard the scout report that the town did not seem to be empty, he wished he could grow wings.

Fly to the town immediately, kill all the people in the town, and loot all the food.

He didn't know that the reason his scouts were able to return safely and report the news was because Yang Yuanshan deliberately let them go.

At this moment, on the hillsides on both sides of the road south of the town, Yang Yuanshan and the soldiers of the special forces regiment were lying in ambush in the weeds.

In Qianniu Town, the people who worked from sunrise to sunset had no idea that a great war was about to break out in the south of the town.

……

"Captain, the Japs are coming soon!

5 minutes at most! "

A sentry hurried over to report to Yang Yuanshan.

"it is good!"

Yang Yuanshan had already become impatient waiting.

Hearing the news, I was immediately cheered up.

He quickly picked up the telescope and looked towards the south.

At the end of the road, I saw a large army lined up in neat formation, marching quickly, raising a cloud of dust several meters high.

Looking at their rear, there were mule and horse carts carrying food, chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and even a dog that had just been killed. It was obvious that they were here to plunder!

Seeing this scene, Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Immediately ordered:

"Comrades, when the Japanese come, we have to fight them head-on!
Don’t let any enemy rush into Qianniu Town and harm the people!”

"Yes!"

The soldiers shouted in unison.

An invisible murderous aura soared into the sky.

……

Soon, the Japanese troops appeared in the sight of the special forces regiment soldiers.

Everyone couldn't help but become nervous, and their hands holding the guns began to sweat.

After several extremely long minutes, the Japanese finally reached the foot of the hillside where they were lying in ambush.

Yang Yuanshan immediately yelled:
"Everyone open fire, beat the Japs hard!"

As he gave the order, dense gunfire sounds resounded between heaven and earth.

“Snap! Snap…”

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

“Sizzle…sizzle…”

……

Various weapons including the Type 42 rifle, Type 18 infantry gun, MG- general-purpose machine gun, Oerlikon machine gun, grenade launcher, M recoilless gun, etc., fired at the same time.

Dense bullets flew towards the Japanese like locusts.

They were beaten so hard on the spot that they were stunned and cried for their parents.

"Baga! The Eighth Route Army has set up an ambush!
Quick, quick, turn in! "

Kawase Shigemasa roared.

There is absolutely no interest in struggling.

The last time he was in Shuiquan City, he knew how difficult the Eighth Route Army was to deal with.

The huge forces of the two divisions failed to gain any advantage. Now he only has one regiment. If he doesn't run, he will die!!!

Following his order, the Japanese soldiers immediately turned around and ran away.

On the hillside, Yang Yuanshan was speechless when he saw that the Japanese were so cowardly that they ran away without fighting back.

I couldn't help but roar in my heart: Japs on the opposite side, do you have a regiment?
Not a squad!
Stop and follow us!
Stand up! !
You guys running like this makes me feel so unfulfilled!!!
Although he was speechless, Yang Yuanshan did not panic, nor did he worry that the Japanese would escape and order his men to charge down.

Instead, he loudly commanded the soldiers to fire with all their might, fully utilizing the range of various weapons to quickly take the lives of those Japanese soldiers who fell behind.

He was thinking about the telegram Han Yang just sent saying that they were almost there. Even if the Japs had eight legs, they would not be able to escape!

……

The Japanese soldier Kawase Shigemasa saw that the soldiers of the special forces regiment did not rush down the hillside to chase him.

I felt relieved immediately.

sarcastically said:
"The Tubalu are cowardly and afraid of fighting, and they only know how to ambush.

There is no military courage at all."

Upon hearing this, the chief of staff Ishikawa Michitaka next to him was speechless.

I thought to myself: Now it’s you who’s being beaten to a pulp by the Eighth Route Army, okay?
How dare you mock the other person?

What about your face??? He quickly suggested:
"Your Excellency, the commander of the Eighth Route Army, if they can ambush us here, they will definitely chase us!

Therefore, I think we should arrange a squadron of warriors to stay behind to stop the enemy."

“No no no!

Ishikawa-kun, we don't have many troops left.

Your idea will only make our already scarce military forces even more stretched!

In my opinion, as long as we run fast enough, the Tubalu bullets won’t be able to catch up with us.”

Kawase Shigemasa shook his head repeatedly.

Upon hearing this bizarre idea, Ishikawa Michitaka almost fainted from anger.

He wanted to knock open this guy's brain and see if it was filled with paste.

He quickly questioned:
"Sir, how can a person run faster than a bullet?
As long as we leave one squadron behind to block the Tubalu for more than half an hour, we will surely be able to successfully transfer our main force!"

"Baga! Are you teaching me how to do something?"

Kawase Shigemasa roared.

Then he heard the screams behind him getting closer and closer, and he suddenly panicked. He immediately kicked the horse's belly and galloped forward.

While rushing forward, he also whipped the Japanese soldiers who were blocking the way with a whip.

Shout:

"Hurry up, disperse!"

Looking at his posture, he seemed to be ready to run away alone.

Of course he's not stupid.

Of course, we also know that it is impossible for a person to run faster than a bullet.

But there was one thing he didn't say, which was: As long as I run faster than others, that's enough!

If the Eighth Route Army's bullets want to kill someone, they will first kill the person behind him, not himself.

Aren’t ordinary soldiers just cannon fodder?

Life or death, what does it have to do with me, the captain of the corps?
As long as I can return to Shuiquan City safely, the worst that can happen is that I'll get a beating from the division commander.

No one will die!

But if I don't run now, I might be the one who dies soon.

Didn’t you see that Lieutenant General Tanaka Kyuichi was blown to pieces?
……

Seeing Kawase Shigemasa running away, Ishikawa Michitaka had no choice but to ride his horse to catch up.

At this time, he was extremely grateful that he was the chief of staff of a regiment and had a war horse to ride.

If I were just an ordinary soldier, I would never be able to escape even if I ran myself to pieces.

Thousands of Japanese soldiers were running wildly on the road, while nearly 3000 members of the special forces regiment were lying on the hillside and firing desperately. The situation on the battlefield seemed a bit weird.

It wasn't like a normal battle at all.

……

Soon, the Japanese escaped from the effective range of the grenade launchers and Type 38 rifles.

Then, he escaped from the range of the Type 99 light machine gun.

The rain of bullets behind him was becoming much less frequent than at the beginning.

Kawase Shigemasa became more confident and felt that he would definitely be able to escape.

Just as he was about to slow down his horse to catch his breath, he suddenly heard a terrifying roar coming from behind him.

"Rumble..."

It actually seemed to be the sound of tanks moving that he had heard at the foot of Shuiquan City!

He couldn't help but look back, and his pupils suddenly shrank!
Shouted in horror:

"Baga! Why are there Tubalu chariots everywhere?"

Ishikawa Michitaka hurriedly shouted:
"Sir, we can't keep running like this!
The warriors will definitely not be able to outrun the Tubalu chariots."

How could Shigemasa Kawase not know this?
Why do I need this annoying guy to remind me?
He immediately ordered:
"Ishikawa-kun, take some people to stay and stop the Tubalu immediately, and the rest of you go over the mountain!"

As he said this, he took the lead, rushed to the foot of the hillside, dismounted, and began to climb up the mountain.

Seeing this guy so afraid of death and cowardly, Ishikawa Michitaka was almost going crazy.

He was about to turn his horse around and organize the soldiers to stop and fight back when suddenly a machine gun shell flew over and cut him in half.

Let him be loyal to His Majesty Tianhuang whom he respected in his heart.

In front of so many machine guns of the Special Forces Regiment, this guy actually dared to ride on the horse. He died only now, which shows that he was very lucky.

The guards around him saw this and shouted in horror:
"Your Excellency the Chief of Staff has died!
The Chief of Staff has died!"

But they couldn't shout for two minutes, because the tanks of the special forces regiment rumbled towards them.

While crushing the wounded soldiers who fell to the ground, they used heavy machine guns to crazily shoot at the fleeing Japanese soldiers.

They were beaten so hard that they could only kneel and wail, with no possibility of escape.
