Chapter 124: I must catch this hateful guy
Lei Tao shouted loudly to the guerrilla captain: "Captain, give the order! First rescue the wounded, then finish off every Japanese corpse, and then clean up the battlefield!"
The guerrilla leader immediately responded: "Brothers, listen to Lei Tao and take action!"
Some team members rushed to support their injured comrades, while others carefully finished off the Japanese corpses to prevent sudden attacks from Japanese soldiers pretending to be dead.
While rescuing the wounded, the medical team members quickly bandaged their wounds. Some of the wounded gritted their teeth in pain but did not say a word.
After finishing the job, the team members began to clean up the battlefield and collect the Japanese army's weapons, ammunition and useful supplies. Someone found a confidential document of the Japanese army and quickly handed it to the captain.
At this moment, there was a noise in the distance. It turned out that the Japanese reinforcements were approaching. Lei Tao's expression became tense and he said, "Captain, the Japanese reinforcements are coming. We must retreat quickly!"
The captain decisively ordered: "Take the wounded and supplies and evacuate quickly!"
The guerrillas quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests, leaving behind only a devastated battlefield as a witness to the fierce battle that had just taken place.
When the Japanese reinforcements arrived, they saw Japanese corpses everywhere. A Japanese captain's face was terribly grim. He found many Thompson submachine gun shells on the ground. He picked up a shell and examined it carefully. He cursed in Japanese: "Assholes, what kind of rubbish did those intelligence agencies give us? They said the guerrillas were short of weapons and equipment. But they were equipped with Thompson submachine guns. What the hell? Is that what you're telling me about a lack of weapons and equipment?"
A Japanese lieutenant nearby lowered his head, not daring to say a word. The captain continued to roar, "What are you still standing there for? Search everywhere. You must find any trace of this guerrilla group. I will wipe them out and avenge the deaths of the imperial soldiers!" The Japanese soldiers immediately scattered and began to search the surrounding area, but by then the guerrilla group had long since disappeared.
As it gradually darkened, they had no choice but to temporarily clean up the guerrilla base and set up camp on the spot...
At night, Lei Tao quietly returned to the vicinity. Like an agile black panther, he took advantage of the cover of darkness and quietly approached the Japanese sentry post.
A Japanese sentry stood there, vigilantly observing his surroundings. Lei Tao approached slowly from behind, his footsteps as light as falling leaves. As he approached the sentry, he suddenly covered his mouth and slashed his throat with the dagger in his hand. The sentry fell without even a grunt.
At that moment, another sentry noticed the movement and was about to raise his gun to shoot Lei Tao. Lei Tao reacted extremely quickly, twisting his wrist and throwing the dagger in his hand with all his might. The dagger flew out like lightning and hit the heart accurately. The sentry trembled, the gun slipped from his hand, and he collapsed to the ground.
Lei Tao quickly rushed to the fallen sentry. He expertly removed his gear and dragged the body to a strategic passageway. He then removed a mine from his backpack and carefully placed it beneath the corpse. He attached the mine's trigger to the body's hands and feet with ropes, ensuring that the mine would detonate if anyone moved the body. After completing these arrangements and eliminating the sentry, Lei Tao retrieved his RPG from the Bagua Gyro space and expertly loaded the rockets. He half-crouched, steadying himself, and peered through the scope, aiming at the Japanese headquarters in the makeshift camp. Confirming his aim, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.
With a whoosh, the rocket shot out, carrying a tail flame straight towards the Japanese headquarters. In an instant, with a loud bang, the Japanese headquarters was engulfed in flames. The shock wave of the explosion blew away surrounding objects, and screams and shouts were heard everywhere.
After firing the rocket, Lei Tao didn't hesitate at all. He quickly put the rocket launcher into space, rolled over, and quickly fled into the distance. His movements were agile and silent, and he soon disappeared into the vast night.
Fujino Kazuo, the supreme commander of the Japanese reinforcements, happened to be outside the temporary headquarters when Lei Tao launched a rocket attack, thus escaping the disaster. His battalion staff officer, however, was not so lucky, being completely destroyed by Lei Tao's rocket attack. Fujino Kazuo gazed at the shattered headquarters, his face livid, and roared in anger, "We must capture this abominable fellow and tear him to pieces!" The Japanese second lieutenant in charge of security frowned, feeling a surge of unease. He sent out to check on the visible and hidden sentries.
Several Japanese soldiers cautiously moved toward the sentry post, their guns drawn, their eyes alert, their steps light.
When they arrived at the sentry's location, they saw the sentry's body lying on the ground. One of the Japanese soldiers was about to turn the body over to examine it, but was stopped by another more cautious soldier: "Be careful, there's a trap!"
But the impulsive soldier refused to obey and pressed forward. He squatted down and reached out to move the body. Just as he turned the body over, there was a loud bang, and the mine exploded.
The immense force of the explosion instantly blew the Japanese soldier away, his body dismembered in mid-air, blood and flesh splattering everywhere. Several nearby Japanese soldiers were also thrown to the ground by the blast, some with buzzing ears, others with bloody faces, writhing and groaning in agony.
In the chaos, a Japanese soldier who was still conscious struggled to get up and stumbled towards the Japanese camp to report to the officers that the sentry post had been attacked.
