Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

Grandma Zhang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, this is your home."

Zhang Ling smiled. This was the first time since his rebirth that he truly felt the warmth of home.

However, what he didn't know was that a bigger crisis was quietly approaching...

Zhang Ling felt a chill on his back and turned around suddenly, only to see a gleaming bayonet pointed at him. The person holding the bayonet was not a Japanese soldier, but...Xu Erniu!

Li Dazhuang stood aside with a weird smile on his face. He was holding a gun in his hand, with the black muzzle pointing at Zhang Ling's head.

"You..." Zhang Ling looked at the two brothers who had been through life and death with him in disbelief.

Xu Erniu showed a ferocious smile on his face: "I'm sorry, Captain. We were forced into this."

"Forced?" Zhang Ling sneered, "Forced by whom? Sakata?"

Li Dazhuang chuckled: "Sakata Taijun said that as long as we kill you, he will let us live. Captain, if you die, we can still live. We won't lose from this deal."

Zhang Ling looked at their greedy eyes and felt a chill in his heart. He then realized that these two guys had been bribed by the devils.

"What benefits did Sakata give you?" Zhang Ling forced himself to calm down.

"Benefits? Hehe, there are so many benefits. Money, women, and... wealth and glory!" Xu Erniu licked his lips, his eyes full of desire.

Zhang Ling felt sick. These two guys actually sold out their brothers and their souls just to survive!

"Do you think Sakata will really let you go?" Zhang Ling sneered, "He is just using you. When he is done using you, your fate will be even worse than mine!"

"That's better than dying now!" Li Dazhuang said viciously, "Stop talking nonsense and prepare to die!"

Having said that, he was about to pull the trigger.

At the critical moment, Zhang Ling suddenly turned sideways and avoided the bullet.

"boom!"

The bullet hit the tree trunk next to it, and wood chips flew everywhere.

While the two were stunned, Zhang Ling kicked Xu Erniu to the ground with a sweeping kick.

The bayonet in Xu Erniu's hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Zhang Ling picked up the bayonet and stabbed it into Xu Erniu's heart with his backhand.

"what!"

Xu Erniu let out a scream, his eyes wide open, and he died with his eyes open.

Seeing this, Li Dazhuang was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run away.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

Zhang Ling rushed forward and killed Li Dazhuang with one blow of his sword.

Blood splattered all over Zhang Ling, but he didn't care at all.

He looked at the two bodies on the ground without a trace of pity in his heart.

These two traitors deserve to be put to death!

After getting rid of the two traitors, Zhang Ling did not relax his vigilance. He knew that Sakata must be nearby.

He searched the surroundings carefully, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to find Sakata's trace.

Sakata hid behind a big rock, holding a Type 14 Nambu pistol in his hand, facing Zhang Ling.

"Baga! You actually killed my subordinates!" Sakata said gritting his teeth.

"Your subordinates? They have long become your dogs!" Zhang Ling sneered.

"You..." Sakata was shaking with anger, "I'm going to kill you!"

Then he was about to shoot.

However, Zhang Ling was faster than him.

He dodged Sakata's bullet, then rushed forward and stabbed Sakata in the abdomen with a knife.

"what!"

Sakata let out a scream and the pistol in his hand fell to the ground.

He held his stomach and fell to the ground in pain.

"You...you will die a horrible death..." Sakata said with his last bit of strength.

Zhang Ling sneered: "Go to hell!"

After saying that, he drew his bayonet and ended Sakata's life.

At this point, the Sakata Regiment was completely wiped out.

Zhang Ling stood on the hillside, looking at the corpses of Japanese soldiers scattered all over the mountain below, his heart filled with the pleasure of revenge.

However, he knew that this was just the beginning.

His road to revenge is still long...

Suddenly, he felt dizzy, his vision went black, and he fainted on the ground.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Ling slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself lying in a strange room, covered with a thin blanket.

"you're awake?"

A gentle voice came.

Zhang Ling turned his head and saw a young woman in cheongsam sitting beside the bed, looking at him with concern.

The woman had a pretty face, picturesque features, and a faint fragrance emanating from her body.

"You are..." Zhang Ling looked at her puzzledly.

"My name is Liu Ruyan, and I'm the doctor here." The woman said with a smile, "You were injured, and I saved you."

"Thank you." Zhang Ling said gratefully.

"You're welcome." Liu Ruyan said gently, "How do you feel?"

"Not bad." Zhang Ling said, "I just still feel a little dizzy."

"That's because you lost too much blood." Liu Ruyan said, "You need to rest well."

Zhang Ling nodded and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest...

Zhang Ling felt a chill on his back, not from an enemy attack, but from a strange gaze that seemed to come from another time and space. He turned back suddenly, but saw only a battlefield filled with smoke and the bodies of Japanese soldiers lying in all directions.

"Battalion Commander, what's wrong?" Xu Erniu noticed that Zhang Ling was acting strangely and asked with concern.

Zhang Ling shook his head. "It's okay. Maybe I'm too tired."

He felt a little uneasy in his heart. This feeling had appeared frequently since he was reborn, like an indelible nightmare. He was originally a special forces soldier in the 21st century. He died accidentally during a mission, but was reborn in this war-torn era and became a battalion commander of the 772nd Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

With the memories and combat experience of his previous life, he thrived in this era like a duck in water and made many outstanding achievements, which also attracted a lot of jealousy and suspicion.

"Battalion Commander, what should we do with that old devil Sakata?" Li Dazhuang, holding the confiscated samurai sword, stepped on the dying Sakata Nobutsu.

Nobutsu Sakata was in a miserable state at this moment, his military uniform was torn, his face was covered in blood, and his eyes were full of fear and despair.

Zhang Ling looked at Sakata Nobutsu, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Take him back, I can be of use to him."

Nobutsu Sakata was tied up and taken back to the 772nd Regiment’s base.

Along the way, he kept cursing and threatening, but Zhang Ling remained unmoved.

After returning to the base, Zhang Ling did not immediately interrogate Sakata Nobutsu, but instead detained him.

He knew that now was not the time.

He needed to first figure out the secret behind his rebirth and the source of that strange gaze.

In the next few days, Zhang Ling directed the troops to clean up the battlefield and rest the troops while secretly investigating Sakata Nobutsu's background.

He discovered that Sakata Nobutsu was not an ordinary Japanese officer. He had close ties with high-ranking Japanese military officials and seemed to be in possession of some important secrets.

This discovery made Zhang Ling even more certain that there must be great value hidden in Nobutsu Sakata.

At the same time, the strange feeling of being stared at became stronger and stronger, as if an invisible pair of eyes were secretly watching his every move.

Zhang Ling began to feel anxious and uneasy. He didn't know what this meant or how to deal with it.

One night, Zhang Ling was studying a map in his tent when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

He walked out quickly and saw several soldiers escorting a man covered in blood.

"Report to the battalion commander, we have captured a Japanese spy!"

Zhang Ling walked closer and took a look, and was stunned.

The person who was captured was not a Japanese soldier, but a young woman wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army.

The woman was pale, breathing weakly, with multiple knife wounds on her body, and her military uniform was stained red with blood.

"What's going on?" Zhang Ling asked sternly.

"Reporting to the battalion commander, we found her acting suspiciously while on patrol, and she was carrying intelligence on the Japanese!" a soldier replied.

Zhang Ling looked at the woman, his heart full of doubts.

The woman's eyes were clear, she didn't look like a spy, but how could one explain the information she had?

"Bring her to my tent."

Zhang Ling had the woman carried into the tent and simply bandaged her wound.

The woman slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Zhang Ling, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"You are... Zhang Ling?"

Zhang Ling was stunned, "Do you know me?"

The woman smiled weakly, "My name is Lin Xue, and I'm an intelligence agent of the underground party..."

Before Lin Xue could finish her words, she fell into a coma.

Zhang Ling looked at the unconscious Lin Xue and fell into deep thought.

Underground party? Intelligence agent? What on earth is going on?

He felt like he had fallen into a huge whirlpool, and everything around him became confusing.

Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Report to the battalion commander! The Japanese are attacking us!"

Zhang Ling was shocked and rushed out of the tent.

On the distant hillside, I saw flames rising into the sky and loud gunfire.

The Japs actually launched a sneak attack under the cover of darkness!

"Order the troops to fight immediately!"

Zhang Ling gave the order decisively, he knew that a fierce battle was inevitable.

He led his soldiers towards the position, but his heart was full of doubts and uneasiness.

How did the Japs know the location of their base?

Is there really a spy in the team?

Also, is Lin Xue's appearance a coincidence, or is there another purpose?

All of this seemed like a huge mystery, shrouding Zhang Ling's heart.

Just as he was thinking, a bullet whizzed past...

Zhang Ling felt a chill on his back, not from the enemy's attack, but an inexplicable chill, as if something was watching him. He turned around suddenly, but saw only the corpses of Japanese soldiers all over the ground and the battlefield filled with gunpowder.

"Battalion Commander, what's wrong?" Xu Erniu noticed that Zhang Ling was acting strangely and asked with concern.

"It's okay." Zhang Ling shook his head and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart. "Clean up the battlefield and count the spoils!"

Sakata Nobutsu was tied up and thrown to the ground like a dead dog. His eyes were empty and his face was ashen. He knew that he had failed completely.
