The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 446: The Murderous Forest! How did the Chen Lei team break through the double killing array?

Jungle Murder! How did the Chen Lei team break through the twelve-layer killing array?

The Type 96 light machine gun in Chen Feiyang's hands rattled with a blank click, and hot shell casings tumbled onto the blood-stained surface of his boots. Without hesitation, he swung the machine gun at the enemy group, the metal barrel slamming into the chest of a Japanese soldier, who stumbled and fell to his companions behind him. Chen Feiyang rolled sideways, using inertia as the bullet plowed through the bark, sending sawdust and shrapnel grazing his neck.

He lifted himself up on one knee, slamming it hard against the raised knot on the trunk. A sweet, fishy taste surged in his throat. Chen Feiyang endured the excruciating pain and leaned forward. His right pupil suddenly constricted. From the bushes to the right, twelve gray-green figures advanced in a triangular formation. The leading sergeant, a Nambu pistol strapped to his waist, served as a vanguard, holding an MP35 submachine gun.

"Brother Lei! Right-wing elite squad!" Chen Feiyang roared in a low voice, his left hand already flicking the safety of his Scorpion submachine gun to burst fire. Two short bird calls answered him. Lei Tao's VSS sniper rifle had locked onto its target from a distance. Six MP35s suddenly swung their muzzles, and the mist rising from the bushes precisely covered Chen Feiyang's position, showering down bark fragments like a torrential rain.

Chen Feiyang leaned against the hollow of the tree trunk, breathing rapidly, the distinct muffled crack of an MP35 submachine gun filling his ears. The bark peeled away in the hail of bullets, revealing the charred wood grain beneath. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a crooked tree with tangled branches above and to his left. He gritted his teeth and grasped the last two anti-personnel grenades in his palms.

"Three, two, one!" With the muffled crack of Lei Tao's sniper rifle, Chen Feiyang bolted from cover. The first anti-personnel grenade slammed precisely into the center of the Japanese triangle formation, sending shrapnel flying like steel needles, sending two Japanese soldiers screaming and flying backwards. Taking advantage of the enemy's disarray, he used a tree trunk for leverage to leap upward, twisting mid-air to shove the second grenade into the bushes to the right—where a Japanese machine gunner, preparing for a detour, was hiding.

Amidst the explosion, Chen Feiyang tumbled to the ground, his Scorpion submachine gun instantly blazing with flames. Bullets pierced a Japanese soldier's tactical vest, exploding the first aid kit on his chest, sending bandages and hemostatic powder flying everywhere. The sergeant reacted quickly, pulling the soldiers beside him in front of him. Chen Feiyang lowered his rifle, firing three bullets precisely through the knees of two men.

"Kill!" The sergeant knelt on one knee, brandishing his sword at Chen Feiyang. The remaining three Japanese soldiers formed a fan-shaped formation, their MP35s emitting orange flames. Chen Feiyang dodged behind a broken tree, its trunk instantly riddled with shreds.

After pulling out the safety pin, Chen Feiyang gripped the M1 grenade tightly in his palm, counted to three seconds silently, gathered strength in his arm and swung it out. The grenade drew an arc in the air and landed precisely in the middle of the three Japanese soldiers.

"Get down!" the Japanese sergeant screamed at the top of his lungs. But it was too late. A violent explosion resounded, and the blast, carrying shrapnel in a fan-shaped pattern, spread outward. One Japanese soldier was blown away by the blast and slammed heavily against the rocks, dead instantly. Another, pierced through the abdomen by shrapnel, curled up on the ground and wailed in agony. The last Japanese soldier, though lucky enough to survive, had a bloody face and a ruptured eardrum, and sat convulsing on the ground.

Sergeant's eyes were bloodshot, their turbid eyeballs bloodshot. He was oblivious to the wound from the gravel lodged in his cheek. He half-knelt on the scorched earth, his palms pierced by dead branches, yet he still gripped the grip of his MP35 tightly. A low growl, mingled with blood foam, escaped his throat. His bloodstained fingers trembled as he fumbled for the safety catch. Suddenly, a cold light flashed—Chen Feiyang's Scorpion submachine gun was pressed against his temple.

"Don't be a beast in your next life." The moment Chen Feiyang pulled the trigger

Lei Tao caught his breath in the treetops a hundred meters away. Through the scope, he saw an elite Japanese soldier aiming his rifle at Chen Feiyang's back. Lei Tao's index finger lightly squeezed the trigger, and the VSS sniper rifle emitted a dull "puff" sound. The man's helmet suddenly cracked with spiderweb-like cracks, and the bullet pierced the back of his head, causing him to fall to the ground.

The remaining five Japanese soldiers, startled like birds, immediately fell to the ground in a skirmish formation. Lei Tao pulled the bolt to eject the shell and turned the muzzle toward the bushes to the right. A Japanese soldier tried to raise his grenade launcher. Lei Tao narrowed his eyes as the second bullet pierced his elbow, and the metal launcher clanged to the ground.

"Concentrate fire! Find a sniper!" roared the surviving Japanese soldiers. Lei Tao quickly changed his sniper position, swinging onto another tree using vines. As he adjusted his stance, he saw a Japanese soldier aiming his MP35 at Chen Feiyang's waist. Lei Tao's third bullet pierced the man's carotid artery, staining his tactical vest with blood like a fountain.

Chen Feiyang seized the opportunity to rush towards the remains of the broken tree, but was forced back by the Japanese attacking from the left. Lei Tao locked onto the soldier's calf, his bullet accurately shattering the kneecap. The Japanese soldier screamed and rolled over, and Lei Tao fired a fourth shot, which penetrated his face.

Chen Feiyang lowered his center of gravity, using the thick smoke from the explosion as cover as he sprinted towards the remains of the broken tree. Debris flew beneath his feet, and the muzzle of his Scorpion submachine gun remained at a constant angle. When he was only five meters away from the broken tree, the bushes on his left suddenly shook violently. A Japanese soldier wearing goggles and holding an MP35 suddenly rushed out, the muzzle of the gun pointed directly at his chest.

At the critical moment, Lei Tao, a hundred meters away, decisively pulled the trigger of his VSS rifle. The bullet pierced the Japanese soldier's left knee, sending him screaming and falling forward, his submachine gun unleashing into the air. Chen Feiyang seized the opportunity and sprinted forward. As the Japanese soldier struggled to raise his head, Lei Tao's second bullet pierced his forehead, sending his body tumbling to the ground.

The remaining two Japanese soldiers immediately pressed back to back, their MP35s sweeping back and forth in a fan-shaped pattern. One of them, wearing a communication headset, reported his position in rapid Japanese. Chen Feiyang hid behind a tree, quickly changing his magazine, while Lei Tao moved silently through the treetops, searching for the best shooting angle.

As if sensing the threat, the two Japanese soldiers suddenly turned simultaneously. Just as they were about to turn their guns, Lei Tao squeezed the trigger. Two bullets were fired almost simultaneously, the first striking the left Japanese soldier in the back of the neck, the second piercing the right Japanese soldier's heart. The two men lurched forward, their weapons slipping from their grasp, and they fell heavily onto the scorched earth, riddled with bullet holes.

After finishing the battle here, Chen Feiyang made a sparrow sound in the direction of Lei Tao: three short and one long: should we evacuate?

Deep in the dense forest, three rapid cuckoo calls suddenly rang out, followed by two long chirps, and finally a short chirp - this was Lei Tao's ventriloquist imitation of the retreat signal. Lei Tao lay in the treetops and put the VSS sniper rifle into the Bagua gyroscope space. He took out two special smoke bombs,

A smoke bomb was thrown accurately towards the northwest bushes. The moment the explosion sounded, smoke instantly filled a large area of ​​the jungle.

Lei Tao took Chen Feiyang and left the area quietly under the cover of smoke.
