Zhu Tian: Beginning to Cross the Changjin Lake

The current situation also makes Li Guotao a little worried, but according to the plot that Li Guotao knows, the Japanese devils should not have any other tricks.

But even so, Li Guotao could not completely relax, for fear that something unexpected would happen again.

Li Guotao observed the situation outside and saw that the Japanese did not do anything special. He ordered several soldiers to continue monitoring and found a quiet place to rest.

The reason why he left the command center just now was because he had said almost everything he needed to say. This matter still needed long-term consideration, and he had to slowly try to change Captain Xie and the others.

After all, Li Guotao had only known them for a short time, and these people might not be able to fully trust him.

That's why Li Guotao left the command center and let their people think it over and discuss it carefully.

Anyway, if nothing unexpected happens, there should be two or three days left, so there is no need to rush.

No matter what, no matter what, Li Guotao had to try his best to avoid the tragedy from happening again, and the only way he could think of now was to persuade them not to lay down their arms and retreat into the concession, becoming lambs to be slaughtered.

The fighting stopped temporarily, and the Sihang Warehouse returned to a rare state of peace.

"Something's happening~!"

When the foreign journalists who were resting on the balcony heard the shouting, they all looked towards the Sihang Warehouse.

But the Sihang Warehouse was as calm as before, with nothing unusual.

But on the new garbage bridge leading to the concession next to the Sihang Warehouse, a huge flag of the Third Reich suddenly appeared.

Several people, holding this huge flag and using it as cover, were carefully preparing to cross the New Garbage Bridge and enter the Sihang Warehouse.

"what is that?"

"What do they want?"

“Not sure~!”

"Who is so bold as to go to the Sihang Warehouse?"

"That's the flag of the Third Reich."

"Go and get the news quickly."

These foreign journalists suddenly became agitated.

This scene was soon discovered by the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side.

A Japanese officer hiding on the top of the bank building observed through a telescope and then ordered: "Make a phone call and don't let them pull the phone line over."

"Hayi~!"

Because those people were holding the flag of the Third Reich, the Japanese couldn't see clearly who was below them, so they didn't dare to shoot rashly.

The Japanese are still afraid to offend the Third Reich, so they have some concerns.

Following the order from the Japanese officer, the Japanese sniper hiding in the bank building quickly locked onto the telephone spool at the back.

“Snap~!”

A crisp gunshot was heard, and the bullet hit the telephone spool. The person holding the spool dropped it to the ground.

The person in front was unprepared and took a few more steps forward.

In this way, the fallen telephone spool was completely exposed.

“Snap~!”

Another crisp gunshot rang out and the bullet hit the bridge.

This is a warning from the Japanese.

At the same time, when the first gunshot rang out, Li Guotao, who was resting with his eyes closed, was awakened.

Li Guotao quickly ran to a window and looked out. When he saw the huge flag, he understood what had happened.

Li Guotao picked up a Type 38 rifle and quickly rushed to the west wall of the sixth floor.

At this moment, the flag fluttered and a man in black came out from it. He ran back and tried to pick up the telephone wire spool that had fallen on the ground.

At this time, the Japanese also saw the man's attire and knew he was Chinese. Judging from his attire, he should be a gang member from Songhu.

The Japanese sniper decisively locked onto the man. With a crisp gunshot, the man had just touched the telephone spool when a hot bullet flew over.

The man was shot in the head and died instantly. His body fell powerlessly onto the bridge.

The other few people, seeing that the situation was not right, immediately carried the huge flag and quickly crossed the New Garbage Bridge. With the help of the defenders, they successfully entered the Sihang Warehouse.

The Japanese did not kill those people because they understood that just a few of them would not pose any threat to them.

Moreover, most of the people under that flag are foreigners, and they don’t want to cause trouble.

However, at this moment, a young man in black rushed out from the opposite side of the bridge again and quickly rushed towards the telephone spool that fell on the bridge.

It was obvious that he wanted to send this spool of telephone wire to the Sihang Warehouse across the street.

“Snap~!”

A crisp gunshot was heard, and the man was shot dead by a Japanese sniper before he could run far.

However, when he fired, his position was completely exposed.

At this moment, Li Guotao was in a shooting hole on the sixth floor of the warehouse, observing the situation on the opposite side.

The moment the Japanese soldier fired, he had already been locked on by Li Guotao, who decisively pulled the trigger.

“Snap~!”

With a crisp gunshot, the hot bullet flew directly towards the bank building opposite.

"Pfft~!"

The bullet hit the Japanese sniper's head, blood mixed with brain matter splattered out, and the Japanese died on the spot.

The Japanese soldier next to him was also startled and couldn't help cursing, "Bagayades, there's a sniper on the other side."

"Order all snipers to get into combat positions, find the enemy sniper on the opposite side, and kill him."

"Keep blocking the bridge and stop them from getting the telephone wire across."

"Hayi~!"

After Li Guotao fired a shot, he immediately moved to another shooting hole, took out a small mirror, and observed the situation in the bank building opposite.

At this time, several Japanese snipers had all entered the best sniper positions on the top floor, searching for sniper positions in the warehouse while preventing anyone from going up the bridge to deliver the telephone spools.

Li Guotao was experienced and had naturally guessed the sniper positions they would choose, because there were only a few most suitable sniper positions and the Japanese snipers could only appear in those places.

So Li Guotao quickly spotted a Japanese sniper, then quickly put away the scope, raised his gun and put it out of the shooting hole. With a crisp gunshot, another Japanese sniper on the opposite side was shot dead.

After firing the gun, Li Guotao quickly pulled back the gun.

Gunshots were heard from the opposite side, two bullets hit the outer wall and one bullet hit the shooting hole.

The Japanese reacted quickly, but unfortunately, the shooting hole in the warehouse was very small, so it was not easy for the Japanese to kill Li Guotao.

Li Guotao had already moved to another place as quickly as possible, and then took decisive action.

With one shot, he killed a Japanese observer who was observing the situation on this side.

One of the Japanese soldiers couldn't help but shout: "Sir, that guy is too powerful." "Baga Yalu~!"

The Japanese officer next to him cursed angrily: "A bunch of rubbish, with so many people, can't they deal with one enemy?"

Although the opponent kept changing positions, it could basically be judged that there was only one person.

The Japanese had several groups of snipers, and so many people could not deal with one enemy, which made the Japanese officer very angry.

“Snap~!”

Another crisp gunshot was heard, and a Japanese sniper nearby was shot in the head and killed on the spot.

"Bagaya Deer~!"

The Japanese officer was so angry that he yelled, "Kill him, no matter what."

However, Li Guotao's shooting skills were superb, and the level of these Japanese snipers was average, and they were no match for Li Guotao at all.

Li Guotao asked several soldiers on the sixth floor to assist him, asking them to stick their guns out of the firing holes and hide in a safe place.

This is enough to confuse the enemy snipers and give Li Guotao more opportunities to shoot.

As the crisp sound of gunfire continued to ring out, the Japanese snipers were killed one after another.

After a period of fighting, more than a dozen snipers of the Japanese were killed one after another, and the Japanese were completely obedient.

Under Li Guotao's cover, the people on the other side also successfully delivered the telephone line to the Sihang Warehouse. In this way, the warehouse defenders could communicate directly with the concession.

Li Guotao killed another Japanese soldier on the opposite side. Seeing that these beasts had been subdued, they all hid obediently in secret places and dared not show their heads easily.

Li Guotao put away his gun this time and told the soldiers around him: "Keep watching the Japs, but be careful."

"Yes!"

Among the several people who entered the warehouse this time, there was a young and beautiful foreigner.

After Captain Xie learned the news, he met with these people in a relatively safe place on the third floor.

"Hello, Captain Xie. My name is Eva, and I'm a teacher at St. John's University."

"This is reporter Fang Xingwen."

I didn't expect that Fang Xingwen would also come here.

This guy works really hard to make money.

He came to the Sihang Warehouse simply to get first-hand information.

Captain Xie politely shook hands with each of them.

Eva continued, "We heard that the soldiers in the warehouse have been resisting, so we came to see if we can help."

"We brought some medicines, which should be the supplies you urgently need."

Captain Xie quickly said politely: "Thank you! On behalf of all the soldiers, I thank you for your support."

At this time, Captain Yang came over and said, "Commander, the call is connected. Mr. He wants to talk to you."

Captain Xie smiled and said to Eva: "Please wait a moment."

Then he walked over and answered the phone.

Head Xie picked up the microphone and said respectfully, "Sir, I am Zhongmin."

"What's the situation in the warehouse now? Can the brothers still hold on?"

Captain Xie said quickly: "Please rest assured, sir, we will do our best to defend the Sihang Warehouse."

"The Japanese have temporarily stopped their attack. I think it's because they suffered too many casualties. They are also worried and dare not continue to attack the warehouse."

"This way, the brothers can take a chance to catch their breath. I guess these little devils have run out of tricks. Unless they use heavy artillery, they can only attack by force."

"And our ammunition reserves can last for a while. As long as the brothers fight to the death, there will be no problem in holding out for a while."

When Mr. He heard this, he was obviously relieved and said, "That's great, brothers, you have all worked hard."

"We know that you are in a very difficult situation now, but for the sake of the country and the nation, you have no choice but to continue to persevere."

"We will also do our best to provide you with some support."

"I can't promise you anything specific, but I will do my best to collect some supplies in the concession and send them to you."

Captain Xie quickly said, "Thank you, sir."

"If that's the case, we'll definitely be able to hold out for a little longer."

Mr. He said: "If you have any difficulties now, just let me know. As long as I can do it, I will do my best to help you."

Captain Xie said: "After a fierce battle, many of our brothers have been killed and wounded. We are in urgent need of some emergency medicines."

"It would be great if you could find a way to raise another batch of medicines and send them over."

"Another point is that the medical facilities here are limited. When brothers are injured, we can only perform some simple first aid."

"Minor injuries don't matter, but for the seriously injured, they can only wait to die."

"Sir, can you think of a way to send a group of seriously injured soldiers to the concession for treatment? I really don't want to watch these brothers die."

Mr. He pondered for a moment and said, "We will find a way to raise more medicines for you as soon as possible."

"As for the transfer of the injured, there are some difficulties. But I will communicate and negotiate with the relevant parties as soon as possible and do my best to facilitate this."

Captain Xie said gratefully: "Thank you very much, sir."

Mr. He said: "Zhongmin, we should be the ones thanking you."

"It is because of people like you who risked their lives to fight for our country that our country was saved."

"Although the battle situation is not favorable to us now, seeing you gives us hope again."

"I believe that as long as we continue to persevere, we will surely win the war of resistance."

"What you said is absolutely true."

Captain Xie chatted with Mr. He for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Captain Yang beside him said with a smile: "With the help of Mr. He, our future life will be better."

Captain Xie nodded and said, "It would be even better if we could get all the seriously injured out safely."

……

Eva said: "People outside have seen your heroic actions, but they don't know the difficulties you are facing now."

"Continue taking morphine and other medicines here. There are still some wounded who need better treatment."

"I've seen it just now. You've been resisting for three days. The soldiers have almost reached their limit."

"Although I don't understand military affairs, I know that the entire city has been occupied by the Japanese, and your main force has begun to retreat westward."

"In this way, your resistance will eventually fail."

"The lives of these soldiers are also very precious. I would like to ask, Captain Xie, what is the point of continuing to resist?" (End of this chapter)
