The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 346: Fierce Battle in the Cave: Zhu 28 is Executed, and Uesugi Kazuya Escapes

While Zhu Erba was reloading, Chen Feiyang poked his head out and fired at him. "Da da da," the Thompson submachine gun rained down bullets on Zhu Erba, forcing him to cower behind a boulder, afraid to show his head. Zhu Erba was terrified, knowing full well that he was in grave danger, but his instinct for survival kept him fighting.

As Chen Feiyang fired, Yi Guang also came from the right. He pressed close to the cave wall. When he approached the boulder where Zhu Erba was hiding, he suddenly shouted and jumped out from the side, pointing his gun directly at Zhu Erba. Zhu Erba heard the sound and subconsciously turned his head, just in time to meet Yi Guang's cold gun.

"Drop your weapon! You have nowhere to escape!" Yi Guang shouted. A trace of despair crossed Zhu Erba's face, but he refused to be caught. He rolled his eyes, pretending to drop his weapon, but suddenly, with a flick of his wrist, he raised the Mauser pistol again, intending a final counterattack.

Yi Guang was prepared. The moment Zhu Erba raised his gun, he pulled the trigger without hesitation. Two gunshots rang out, and two bloody flowers suddenly burst out from Zhu Erba's chest. His body leaned back, and the revolver in his hand fell to the ground. Zhu Erba's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and then he slowly fell to the ground.

As Yi Guang and Chen Feiyang killed Zhu Erba, Lei Tao and Xu Keming arrived at the main battlefield. Lei Tao locked onto Shangshan Kazuya with a single glance, a cold, murderous intent flashing across his face. Almost instantly, with a flick of his wrist, Lei Tao raised the pistol steadily, his finger on the trigger. "Bang, bang, bang!" A barrage of bullets, like a deadly meteor, rained down on Shangshan Kazuya, emptying the magazine in the blink of an eye.

Shang Shanhe, a well-trained elite agent, reacted with lightning speed to the onslaught of bullets. Like a nimble cheetah, he lunged forward, executing a tactical roll. Bullets grazed his shirt and struck the stone wall behind him, sending up a shower of sparks. After his tumble came to a stop, Shang Shanhe picked up his fallen MP35 submachine gun, quickly rising from a half-kneeling position and aiming it at Lei Tao and Xu Keming. Then, his finger squeezed the trigger frantically, and the MP35 instantly unleashed a deadly stream of flames, a barrage of bullets lashing out at Lei Tao and Xu Keming.

Seeing this, Lei Tao and Xu Keming quickly scattered to the sides. Lei Tao dodged behind a boulder. His bullets struck the stone, sending sparks flying and sending shards raining down. Lei Tao sheathed his M1911 pistol and retrieved two Thompson submachine guns from the Bagua gyroscope. With deft movements, he held one of the guns across his chest. With lightning-fast movement, his right hand pulled the bolt. With a crisp click, the bolt snapped back into place, loading the chamber. Then, Lei Tao suddenly leaned forward, aiming his gun at Kazuya Uesugi, his index finger firmly pulling the trigger. A volley of bullets flew towards Kazuya Uesugi and the several Japanese agents surrounding him.

Under the powerful firepower suppression, Kazuya Uesugi and his men were forced to retreat repeatedly, looking for cover to hide. However, two of his men were unable to dodge and were shot and killed.

Uesugi Kazuya was horrified. He hadn't expected Lei Tao to launch such a fierce attack in such a short time. Cursing inwardly, he used a huge rock as cover, pressing his body tightly against it and breathing rapidly.

"Baka!" Uesugi cursed, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, soaking his collar. He quickly leaned forward, trying to observe Lei Tao's position, but the Thompson submachine gun in Lei Tao's hand roared again, and bullets rained down on the boulder, splashing a shower of sparks, forcing him to retreat quickly.

At this moment, Lei Tao took the opportunity to shout to Xu Keming, "Brother Xu, take the gun." At the same time, he exerted force on his wrist and threw one of the Thompson submachine guns accurately towards Xu Keming.

Xu Keming, hiding behind a stone pillar, heard Lei Tao's cry and quickly turned his head, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. Without hesitation, he reached out his hand. In mid-air, he grasped the flying Thompson submachine gun. He slid sideways, knelt on one knee, raised the gun, cocked the bolt, and locked the gun on the boulder where Shang Shan He Ye was hiding. He took a deep breath and slowly squeezed the trigger. The Thompson submachine gun spewed flames, and the bullet whizzed towards the boulder. The intense firepower sent sparks flying around the boulder, and Shang Shan He Ye was pinned down, unable to even lift his head.

"Damn it!" Kazuya Uesugi was furious and anxious, knowing that if he continued like this, he would be doomed. He quickly glanced around and spotted a narrow passage behind him, which might be a way to escape. He lowered his voice and said to the two remaining agents beside him, "Listen, I'll throw a grenade to distract them. You guys take this opportunity to retreat through the passage behind to the other exit. Just jump into the lake and you'll be out of danger. We'll meet up at the back!" The two agents looked pale, but gritted their teeth and nodded.

Elsewhere on the main battlefield, Zheng Cheng, along with the Military Intelligence Bureau agents and the "Netherworld" team, had just finished restocking their ammunition. He loaded a bullet into the magazine, and with a click, it slid into the chamber. He shouted, "Brothers, Zhu Erba is dead. These minions are nothing to fear. Charge!" With that, he charged forward, rifle in hand.

The "Ghost" team members, closely followed by the Military Intelligence Bureau agents, pounced on the dozens of bandits under Zhu Erba like a tiger descending from the mountain. The bandits were already in great disarray due to Zhu Erba's death, and now seeing the crowds rushing in like a tide, they were thrown into even greater disarray.

Liu Zishan moved across the battlefield, using the cave's stone pillars as cover, constantly changing positions and firing accurately at the bandits. With each pull of the trigger, a bandit fell to the ground. One bandit attempted a flank attack, and as soon as he showed his head, Liu Zishan spotted him out of the corner of his eye. He swiftly turned, raised his hand, and fired, hitting the bandit squarely between the eyebrows. Without even a grunt, the bandit collapsed straight down.

Chen Feiyang, holding his submachine gun, advanced, firing at full force. His face was filled with determination, and the gun in his hand spewed out tongues of flame, leaving the bandits powerless to fight back. The bandits, suppressed by the powerful firepower, could only huddle behind makeshift fortifications, occasionally poking their heads out to fire blindly.

Zheng Cheng spotted a bandit who was reloading his rifle, rushed forward, leaped in front of him, and smashed the bandit's head with the butt of his rifle, knocking him unconscious on the spot. After dispatching the bandit, Zheng Cheng rushed towards his next target, his figure darting across the battlefield, leaving bandits falling wherever he went.

After a fierce battle, most of the bandits were killed or wounded. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the remaining bandits threw down their weapons and surrendered. Zheng Cheng looked at the surrendered bandits and shouted, "Gather them all together and keep an eye on them!" The team members acted quickly, gathered the surrendered bandits together, and put them under strict supervision.

After dealing with the bandits, Zheng Cheng turned to look in the direction where Lei Tao, Xu Keming and Shang Shan He Ye were fighting, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, go support Captain Xu and Brother Lei, don't let Shang Shan He Ye get away!" Everyone responded in unison and rushed towards the direction of Lei Tao and Xu Keming.
