Bright Sword: Japs, times have changed

The two of them quickly filled the entire warehouse with bombs. At this time, Lin Qiang suddenly said, "Huzi, you go out first. Remember to close the door."

Although he was confused, Hu Zi still followed the order to leave the warehouse and then struggled to close the door.

The moment the warehouse door closed, Lin Qiang thought about it, and all the supplies disappeared out of thin air and were all stored in Lin Qiang's system space.

It was only yesterday that he discovered that the system space had another function, which was that it could automatically classify and store supplies, and he could know the quantity of supplies with just a thought.

The supplies were taken away, but the bombs were left in the empty warehouse.

In fact, Lin Qiang wanted to leave Xiao Ye with a glimmer of hope, so that he could open the warehouse and then let the explosion shatter the last glimmer of hope.

The supplies in a warehouse disappeared out of thin air, which was an inexplicable thing, and there were no truck tire marks left at the scene, so Lin Qiang decided to blow up the warehouse directly.

He opened the door just enough for someone to get out, and after Lin Qiang came out, he closed the door again and said, "Let the team retreat quickly and return the way they came."

"Yes!"

Hu Zi never asked any unnecessary questions and turned around and ran towards the place where the team was resting.

The battlefield outside had been cleared long ago, with only two Type 92 heavy machine guns remaining.

This is a great treasure. If the soldiers could take it away, they would definitely not stay here.

The bullets were taken away, and without any hesitation, Lin Qiang directly put the two heavy machine guns into the system warehouse.

He lit the fuse of the explosives with a cigarette, threw it on the ground, and Lin Qiang quickly evacuated the place.

When he ran to a safe distance, a huge explosion resounded throughout the mountains, and the sound continued to spread into the distance.

The soldiers could clearly feel that as the explosion sounded, the ground beneath their feet also shook violently.

On the way back, Lin Qiang clearly felt that the atmosphere in the team was different from when he came. There was no smile on the soldiers' faces, and few people were talking.

He knew that the soldiers were unhappy about returning empty-handed, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he could only let them be unhappy for the time being.

The supplies that have entered the system space must be taken out again so that the soldiers will know that these supplies exist.

If he were to take the supplies out now to take the soldiers' feelings into consideration, then there would be no need for Lin Qiang to hide it from everyone. Wouldn't it be better to just put the supplies away in front of them?

Doing this is too shocking and it is easy to be mistaken for a monster.

Although they were all Eighth Route Army soldiers with strong will, this kind of thing was beyond people's cognition and could not be explained clearly in words.

Lin Qiang was afraid that others would find out and look at him with tinted glasses.

The team returned along the same route, but an accident occurred along the way.

The soldier who was responsible for exploring the way ahead came back to report the situation, saying that the road had been blocked by the Japanese and was heavily guarded. It would cost a huge price to break through.

Fortunately, Lin Qiang memorized the surrounding terrain before setting off. The local command team entered the jungle and took another road along the ridge.

However, the crisis was not resolved.

The battle that broke out in the warehouse caused all the surrounding Japanese strongholds and artillery towers to begin to surround it, trying to encircle the first row.

After trying several locations, the team was unable to quickly and safely pass through the Japanese blockade and was forced to stop in the jungle to rest.

The soldiers were so exhausted that they had to stop to replenish their energy.

Lin Qiang found Hu Zi and asked, "Is there any place in this area where we can pass through?"

After all, Hu Zi had come to inquire about the situation here, and he must be much more familiar with the terrain than Lin Qiang.

Hu Zi thought about it carefully and said, "Yes, there is, but it's difficult to pass."

"Where is it?"

Hu Zi picked up a branch and dug up the dead leaves on the ground to reveal the black soil underneath, then drew a simple floor plan of the surrounding area based on his memory.

Then he pointed to a place and said, "It's in our northeast direction, about one kilometer."

"lead the way!"

Hu Zi did not take any action. He frowned and said, "Platoon leader, that place is a cliff with a drop of more than 50 meters, and it is impossible to pass through. How about I take a few people and lead the Japanese away?"

"no!"

Lin Qiang refused without a second thought: "If you do that, you will fall into the enemy's encirclement. I can't do such a thing!"

"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way!"

"Yes!"

The team turned back for a distance and then moved up the hillside.

Just at the same place, about 300 meters ahead, Ono was leading a group of Japanese soldiers following the traces.

"Bagaya Road!"

Ono was already furious and shouted angrily: "Hurry up! We must catch this damn Eighth Route Army!"

After learning that the warehouse had been bombed, Ono smashed almost everything in the office.

He had been hoarding these supplies for a long time. When the supplies at the train station were lost, he planned to use these supplies as bargaining chips to ask Yoshio Shinozuka to take in the Sakata Regiment.

But he was worried that the commander would ask him to leave and use him to help Yamamoto Ikki reorganize the Sakata Regiment, so he was hesitant.

This warehouse was the bargaining chip for all his plans and the capital for him to fight at all costs, but now everything is gone.

The entire mountain was blown down, and the explosives used were from the warehouse.

After venting his anger, he immediately ordered all strongholds and artillery towers to block all roads, and personally led the team to pursue along the traces left near the warehouse, vowing to capture this Eighth Route Army and then slowly torture it to death.

If he knew that he had passed by the pursuing Eighth Route Army just three hundred meters away from him, he would probably have vomited blood in anger on the spot.

It was because of this missed opportunity that Ono completely lost the chance to wipe out an entire row. This time, it was his best and only chance.

"Keep chasing!"

On the mountain, Lin Qiang heard the roar and immediately ordered, "Quick! Everyone, take cover! Don't make any noise!"

"Everyone take cover and don't make any noise!"

"Everyone take cover and don't make any noise!"

"Everyone hide..."

In this way, the row of people hiding on the hillside watched with their own eyes the Japanese soldiers chasing them pass by in front of them.

At that time, the distance between the two sides was no more than a hundred meters. As long as the Japanese noticed the traces left behind and went up to investigate, the whole row would be in a very dangerous situation, and might even be wiped out.

It was luck, and also the work of Tianming.

After the Japanese troops passed by, all the soldiers in the row breathed a sigh of relief.

They knew very well what would happen to them if they were discovered by the Japanese.

"Keep your movements low, Huzi, and continue leading the way!"

The team tiptoed through a valley and continued climbing the mountain until they reached the edge of a cliff and stopped.

"Platoon leader, right here."

Hu Zi pointed at the cliff and said, "If we can go down from here and walk a few miles south along the river below, we can escape the Japanese encirclement. As long as we bypass a few more artillery towers, we can reach our own team's defense zone."

Lin Qiang nodded. As long as they reached their team's defense zone, returning to the base would only be a matter of time.

"But……"

Lin Qiang asked, "But what?"

Hu Zi pointed down and said, "It's more than 50 meters down here, and the cliff is very smooth. There's no foothold, so it's impossible to get down to the bottom."

"Duan Peng!"

Lin Qiang didn't answer and called Duan Peng directly: "How long is the rope you brought?"

"One is about 25 meters long, and there are four in total."

Lin Qiang said, "Connect the ropes together, lead your men, and teach the other soldiers the technique of rapid rappelling."

"Yes!"

Soon, the ropes were connected very firmly, one end was tied to a big tree, and the other end was thrown off the cliff by Wang Chengzhu.

After confirming the rope was secure, Lin Qiang ordered, "One special forces member will help one soldier. Ensure safety and descend as quickly as possible!"

Duan Peng led the way down the rope. This was something he and the special forces team members were already accustomed to.

But for other soldiers, this height makes them dizzy just by looking at it. If they are asked to kill the Japanese and fight them to the death, they will definitely not be afraid of death.

But facing a fifty-meter-high cliff and having to go down from it with only a rope, they felt unsure.

"You can do it, just follow me!"

A special forces soldier patted him on the shoulder and said something comforting. The soldier seemed encouraged and gritted his teeth and followed him down.

Duan Peng has successfully reached the bottom, and other soldiers have arrived safely one after another and immediately set up defenses around him.

Lin Qiang, Qiangzi and Huzi were at the end. They were worried that the rope could not bear the weight, so Lin Qiang kept observing.

"It's your turn, both of you."

Seeing that the two did not move, Lin Qiang asked, "Didn't you hear my order?"
