War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 124: After the war, not only the environment was destroyed, but also the heart
What exactly did the war bring?
Is it the courage to resist invasion?
Is it the national pride that awakens during the fight back?

Maybe both, but right now Xu Chaoyang only saw corpses!

He was not feeling compassion for the Japanese, but was simply stunned when he saw the corpses filling the streets and spilling blood onto the land.

"Company commander."

The gossiper who was guarding the higher point came down from upstairs, holding Chang Zhan's good arm, but there were only two of them coming down from upstairs!

Yang Jingyu also emerged from the alley with his men, and there were about ten men following him. By now in their battle, only about ten people were left out of the team of more than thirty people.

And what about Taylor?

There were bricks and tiles all over the ground and dilapidated houses everywhere. Xu Chaoyang even believed that there must be one or more shivering people squatting in those dilapidated houses.

This is the Chinese people. Their first reaction when danger occurs is to run home. But what if the war this time happens right at your doorstep, and someone even dares to kick open your door and rush in?

It turns out that some things in the movie are true. The most stressful thing about war is not just killing, but also the moment after the war when the smoke of war is everywhere and the sound of gunfire is quiet. No wonder the soldiers in the movie often suffer from mental illness. When standing in such a county town, you will kick corpses and broken bricks and rubble every time you take a step. You will doubt whether the people who suffer the most are the devils even if you win the war!

Yang Jingyu seemed to see the meaning in Xu Chaoyang's eyes. He stepped on the bullet shells scattered all over the ground, walked to his side in a world full of bullet holes on the walls, and stretched out his hand to gently put it on his shoulder...

"They forced us to do it."

Xu Chaoyang immediately turned around and looked at the face that remained calm even after the war had just ended.

"We didn't travel across the ocean to shoot at these low houses that are only one and a half meters high in an iron-shelled turtle."

"If we hadn't come, the bodies you saw would have been those of the stubborn Oroqen people, our compatriots, the people who didn't even know they were dead, and who would be called 'cowards' if they gradually became smelly in the county town."

Xu Chaoyang opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but before he could say it, Yang Jingyu spoke again: "No need to explain anything. I know that your courage and feelings are not due to your pettiness."

He didn't say much, but smiled slightly, and as if to give Xu Chaoyang enough time to think, he shouted behind him: "Liu Gener, Qu Yong, Yu Minghao, you are responsible for vigilance!"

"Wang Tianhao and all Oroqen brothers, clean up the battlefield!"

"Throw away your bows, and everyone change to the devil's rifles. Use all the places you can put bullets and grenades in to fill them up with weapons and equipment. Quickly!"

Yu Minghao glanced at Xu Chaoyang, and Xu Chaoyang waved forward, then turned around and looked along the street littered with corpses.

This was the second time he saw a fully-strength Japanese squadron. There were about two hundred Japanese corpses scattered all over the streets, and most of the machine guns were Type 92 machine guns, and there were no Type 92 infantry guns.

They were more brutal than the squadron the Japanese had seen before. Their repeated counterattacks made Xu Chaoyang unable to raise his head. The two iron-shelled turtles seemed to be half the overlord of the world, crushing everything.

Xu Chaoyang slowly walked to the body of a Japanese soldier, whose chest was pierced by a feather arrow...

Xu Chaoyang bent down and took two grenades from the corpse, then ran towards the Type 93 rail-rail vehicle in the distance. Then, he pulled out the grenade safety ring, knocked it against the iron-shell turtle, threw the grenade into the open top according to his memory, turned around and ran to the opposite alley.

air!
Inside the car, a stream of blood burst out from the top, and the entire armor of the iron-shelled turtle was bulging outwards to varying degrees.

Xu Chaoyang wanted to blow this iron-shelled turtle up completely so that it would never have a chance to appear on the battlefield again.

After the explosion, he pulled out the safety ring of another grenade along the wall again, and threw the grenade near the front wheel drive of the iron-shelled turtle when the iron-shelled turtle did not move. He wanted to make sure that the Japanese would not even think of pulling this thing back, and also to vent his anger!
boom!
After another explosion, Xu Chaoyang walked out of the street littered with the corpses of Japanese soldiers. The tank behind him was emitting billowing black smoke from the top.

As he walked past under the gaze of the Mongolian young men in the horse team and circled back to the previous street, ready to do the same to another iron-shelled turtle, he saw Altai kneeling next to the corpses of war horses and Oroqen people on the ground.

He was not dead. He just knelt on the ground and looked at the body of old Baturu quietly, without crying or making a fuss. There was also a long-haired girl dressed in men's clothes standing beside him, whose hat had flown away somewhere. She lowered her head and sobbed softly.

Old Baturu was dead, deader than ever. He lay next to Inukai Jiro, but Inukai Jiro's death was much more miserable than his.

When Xu Chaoyang approached, he picked up another grenade from the dead Japanese soldier and put it in his arms. He bent down and took the Type 26 revolver from Inukai Jiro's hand. He grabbed Altai's hand and stuffed the pistol into his hand.

Without saying a word, Xu Chaoyang grabbed the back of his neck and dragged him back into the alley on the side of the street. He turned around and carried Lao Baturu's body. Finally, when he walked out of the alley with a grenade in his hand, he threw it under the car.

boom!
There was a third explosion.

This time, the Oroqen people who were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield were looking at the street through the narrow alley.

Just after the explosion, when Xu Chaoyang was about to meet up with Yang Jingyu and the others, Altai crawled up from the ground.

He just stood behind Xu Chaoyang without saying a word, his face so gloomy that it seemed like it could make a hole in the ground, and his long eyelashes were all wet with tears.

Xu Chaoyang didn't say anything either. The two men, each with their own thoughts, looked at each other in silence.

Just as Xu Chaoyang was about to leave the street, Altai's hand grabbed his arm...

Yue'er was like Altai's mouth, crying bitterly and saying: "Teach us how to fight, we want to fight the devils."

After she said this, Altai remained silent, but more and more Oroqen people gathered behind the two men, each of them carrying a Type 38 rifle on their shoulders, and their arms were full of bullets and grenades.

Thirty, fifty...

When Xu Chaoyang saw this scene, there were still a few Oroqen people from the Xingbeng'er tribe walking towards here at the corner of the street. The three tribes of Solon, which used to fill the entire street, now only had sixty or seventy people left.

This time he is the company commander again. At least he has two platoons of men under him and weapons comparable to those of a reinforced platoon in this era!

But these unfamiliar faces...

These souls that are preparing to explode in silence... compared to the worlds that Xu Chaoyang had just become familiar with and then completely left, it is like two mountains pressing down on him.

This is a human being!

Xu Chaoyang didn’t know when the next encounter of blood and fire would occur and he would not be able to lead them out.

At this moment, a war horse rushed over on the street. A Mongolian riding on the horse looked at Xu Chaoyang and asked, "Are you their leader?"

boom!
boom!boom!
Not far away, the sound of gunfire was heard. When everyone looked over, Yu Minghao walked out of a courtyard and waved his hand towards them, which meant that the Japanese hiding in the corner had been cleared out...
