Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

"Captain, you are too soft-hearted!" Xu Erniu said indignantly, "A woman like this should..."

"Okay, stop talking!" Zhang Ling interrupted him again, with a hint of warning in his tone, "If you don't know something, don't talk about it!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Erniu suddenly became silent and dared not say anything.

Zhang Ling ignored him, but looked up at the sky and said calmly: "It's getting late, we should go back."

"Yes!" Xu Erniu responded and followed Zhang Ling towards the outside of the village.

Not long after the two left, a dark shadow flashed out from the woods not far away. It was Wang Xiurong who had escaped earlier.

She did not go far, but hid in the dark, secretly observing Zhang Ling and Xu Erniu.

Watching the two men leaving, Wang Xiurong's eyes flashed with resentment, and she cursed in a low voice: "Zhang Ling, you bastard! I won't let you go! I will make you pay the price!"

Under the moonlight, Wang Xiurong's face was twisted and hideous, like a demon from hell...

Wang Xiurong felt the hand on her neck tightening, breathing became more and more difficult, and her vision went dark. She knew that if she continued like this, she would really die.

"Cough cough... please... please..." Wang Xiurong uttered a few words with difficulty, her voice hoarse, like a broken bellows.

"What do you want from me?" Zhang Ling loosened his grip a little and looked at her playfully.

"Please... please... let me go..." Wang Xiurong said with difficulty, tears flowing uncontrollably.

"Let you go? Why?" Zhang Ling sneered, "Because you wanted to run away just now? Because you are a cowardly woman?"

“I…I…” Wang Xiurong didn’t know how to answer. She just instinctively wanted to survive. Was there anything wrong with that?

Zhang Ling looked at her terrified and helpless appearance, but he had no pity in his heart, only deep disgust. This woman, in order to survive, can betray others without hesitation. Such a person does not deserve to live in this world!

"If you want me to let you go, unless..." Zhang Ling deliberately dragged out his voice.

"Unless what?" Wang Xiurong asked anxiously, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.

Zhang Ling raised a wicked smile, leaned close to Wang Xiurong's ear, and whispered, "Unless you beg me to love you well..."

Wang Xiurong was struck by lightning and froze. She never thought that Zhang Ling would make such a shameless request.

"What? You don't want to?" Zhang Ling looked at her, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Then I will..."

"Don't...don't..." Wang Xiurong shook her head in horror. She knew what would be waiting for her if she refused.

"If you want to live, do as I say!" Zhang Ling said, pushing Wang Xiurong to the ground.

Wang Xiurong fell to the ground helplessly, tears blurring her eyes. She knew that she had no way to escape and could only let this devil control her...

"Please... please..." Wang Xiurong said with a trembling voice the three most humiliating words in her life.

"Speak louder! I can't hear you!" Zhang Ling was unmoved and became even more aggressive.

"Please... please..." Wang Xiurong cried in despair, her voice echoing in the empty battlefield, sounding particularly desolate.

At this moment, Xu Erniu's voice came from a distance: "Company commander, the Japs' reinforcements are coming!"

Zhang Ling paused, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said to Wang Xiurong coldly: "You are lucky! If you dare to run again next time, I will shoot you on the spot!"

Wang Xiurong lay on the ground in shock, watching Zhang Ling turn and leave, her eyes filled with fear and... a hint of indescribable complex emotions.

"Company commander, what should we do with this woman?" Xu Erniu asked, looking at Wang Xiurong lying on the ground.

A cold light flashed in Zhang Ling's eyes, and he said coldly: "Take her back, I can use her!"

Wang Xiurong's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition came to her mind. She knew that if she fell into Zhang Ling's hands, she would never have a good ending...

Wang Xiurong felt difficulty breathing and her vision went dark. Her instinct for survival made her utter a few words with difficulty: "I...I beg you..."

Zhang Ling loosened his hand, but Wang Xiurong collapsed to the ground and started to cough violently, as if she was going to cough out her lungs. Zhang Ling looked down at her, without a trace of pity in his eyes, but with a bit of teasing: "You can't stand it? This is just the beginning."

Wang Xiurong was terrified, she knew she had fallen into the hands of a demon. She struggled to get up, but Zhang Ling grabbed her hair and forced her to raise her head.

"Look at me." Zhang Ling ordered coldly.

Wang Xiurong was forced to raise her head and look into Zhang Ling's cold and ruthless eyes, as if she saw the abyss of hell. She trembled and dared not speak.

"You know, you made a big mistake." Zhang Ling's fingers gently stroked Wang Xiurong's cheek, but his tone was as cold as a knife, "You shouldn't have tried to escape, and you shouldn't have tried to betray me."

Wang Xiurong couldn't help but shed tears. She choked and said, "I...I didn't betray you...I just..."

"Just what?" Zhang Ling's fingers suddenly exerted force and pinched Wang Xiurong's chin. "You just want to go back to those beasts and continue to live a life worse than pigs and dogs?"

Wang Xiurong shook her head painfully. She didn't want to, she didn't want to at all. She only now understood that compared to those Japanese beasts, although Zhang Ling's methods were cruel, he gave her hope to live.

Seeing the fear and despair in Wang Xiurong's eyes, Zhang Ling curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer. He let go of her hand, turned around and walked to Xu Erniu, taking the pot of water he handed over.

"Do you want to live?" Zhang Ling asked, without any emotion in his tone.

Wang Xiurong nodded desperately. She just wanted to survive now. Even if she had to live like a dog, it was better than death.

Zhang Ling handed the kettle to Wang Xiurong's mouth. Without thinking, Wang Xiurong took big gulps of the water from his hand, as if she wanted to drink away all the suffering she had endured before.

"That's good." Zhang Ling looked at Wang Xiurong's embarrassed look, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. He pulled Wang Xiurong up and let her lean on him, then whispered in her ear, "Remember, your life is mine now. You have to do whatever I want you to do. Do you understand?"

Wang Xiurong nodded weakly, she knew she had no choice.

"Very good." Zhang Ling smiled with satisfaction, then he raised his head and looked into the distance, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "Next, it's time to make those Japanese beasts pay the price..."

Wang Xiurong followed Zhang Ling's gaze and saw that in the distance, the lights on the Japanese gun tower were bright, and she could faintly hear the Japanese shouting and laughing. They didn't seem to realize that death was approaching them.

"Are you ready?" Zhang Ling asked suddenly, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

"What?" Before Wang Xiurong could react, Zhang Ling picked her up and rushed into the dark woods...

The rumbling sound of the explosion still echoed in the valley, and the dust filled the air, covering the sky. Zhang Ling squinted his eyes, trying to see the scene after the landslide, but his heart was beating like a rabbit. This was a gamble that he was risking his entire life and property, and even the fate of the entire 772nd Regiment.

"Is it done, Battalion Commander?" Xu Erniu asked nervously, rubbing his hands. His dark face was covered with dust, and he looked like a miner who had just crawled out of a coal mine.

Li Dazhuang stretched his neck even further, wishing he could put his head into the telescope: "Damn, this dirt is too big, I can't see anything!"

Zhang Ling didn't say anything, just stared at the front. He knew that success or failure depended on this one move. If the plan succeeded, the 772nd Regiment would be able to gain the attention of the division headquarters and regain supplies and manpower; if it failed... he didn't dare to think about it, the 772nd Regiment would have only one fate - being annexed and becoming the "stepmother's child" of other troops.

The dust gradually cleared, and the scene on the hillside finally became clear. The originally rugged hillside now had a huge gap, as if it had been torn apart by an invisible giant hand. And right under this gap, a dark hole was revealed, with some broken stones and wooden boards scattered around the hole, and traces of artificial excavation could be vaguely seen.

"It's done! It's done!" Zhang Ling waved his fist and shouted excitedly, "I knew that the devil's secret warehouse must be nearby!"

Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang also cheered. They knew that this meant that the fate of the 772nd Regiment would take a turn for the better.

"Don't be too happy too soon," Zhang Ling quickly calmed down, "The Japanese will definitely have a patrol team, we have to go in quickly and move the things out."

The three of them quickly crossed the hillside covered with gravel and dust and came to the entrance of the cave. The entrance was not big, only enough for one person to pass through, and it was pitch black inside, with no sight of one's hand in front of one's face.

"Let me go in and take a look first," Zhang Ling pulled out his pistol and carefully entered the cave.

The cave was damp and cold, with a musty smell in the air. Zhang Ling groped his way forward, and after walking about ten meters, the view suddenly opened up.

This is a huge underground space filled with all kinds of supplies: guns and ammunition, food and medicine, and even several brand new trucks.

"I'm rich! I'm really rich this time!" Zhang Ling was ecstatic. This was simply a treasure trove!

He quickly stepped out and said to Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang, "There are all good things in there, hurry in and move them!"

The three of them immediately took action and moved boxes of supplies out of the cave.

"Battalion Commander, look what this is?" Li Dazhuang said, pointing to a box in a corner.

Zhang Ling walked over, opened the box and saw that it was full of gold bars and jewelry.

"Fuck! The Japs are really fucking rich!" Xu Erniu couldn't help but curse.

"Stop talking nonsense and move quickly!" Although Zhang Ling was also shocked, he still suppressed the excitement in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to celebrate.

Just then, there was a sudden sound of noisy footsteps outside the cave.

"Oh no, the devils are coming!" Zhang Ling's face changed, "Retreat quickly!"
