Bright Sword: Japs, times have changed

"I……"

Qian Bojun's face turned ashen with anger. He gritted his teeth to keep himself from getting angry, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "In that case, please do as you please!"

Qian Bojun, who was so angry that he was confused, only paid attention to Lin Qiang's words that he was leaving, and completely ignored those things that did not exist at all.

Before Zhang Fugui could remind her, he heard Zheng Qian's triumphant voice: "Madam! Did you hear that? It's Qian Bojun and me..."

Zheng Qian shut his mouth halfway through his words.

He realized that he had also been framed by the other party, and quickly defended himself: "Taijun, this matter has nothing to do with me. It was all done by Captain Qian alone. I was not involved at all!"

"Really?"

Things have developed to this point. Ono no longer trusts anyone, or it can be said that he believes everything that anyone says.

He believed that everything Zheng Qian said was true. Those faces he had never seen before were the Eighth Route Army soldiers who ambushed him last time. He also believed what Qian Bojun said, that the Eighth Route Army ambushed him because someone tipped him off.

At the same time, he didn't believe anyone's words, and he didn't believe that Zheng Qian and Qian Bojun had nothing to do with his ambush.

Qian Bojun continued to explain, "Mr. Xiaoye, if I wanted to keep you here, why would I have gone to such great lengths to set up an ambush? From the moment you entered Dagu Town, I could have killed you at any time. You should know that this matter has nothing to do with me."

It must be said that Qian Bojun's words were very convincing. Xiao Ye also admitted that this was true. He raised his finger and pointed at Lin Qiang and others and asked, "Qian Sang, how do you explain these people?"

Hearing this, Qian Bojun's heart skipped a beat. He knew that Xiao Ye believed Zheng Qian's words, and even if he said everything, he probably wouldn't be able to fool him.

Just when he didn't know how to respond, Xiao Ye said, "Qian Sang, as long as you capture these people and hand them over to me, we can continue to talk. How about that?"

This made Lin Qiang alert instantly. No matter what Qian Bojun chose, the team should not stay here any longer. Just as he was about to raise his hand to let Qiangzi shoot, he heard Qian Bojun say, "Ono-kun, they are my people."

People like Lin Qiang are important bargaining chips in his transaction. As long as he achieves his goal, he will never interfere in how Xiao Ye deals with it afterwards.

But not now.

Lin Qiang and Xiao Ye were both well aware of Qian Bojun's cunning intentions, and neither of them allowed him to get what he wanted.

Ono pressed on aggressively: "Qian Sang, you have one minute to think about it."

Lin Qiang knew what he and his soldiers would face in a minute, but if he opened fire rashly, it would easily lead Qian Bojun and Ono to form a united front and point their guns at him.

Lin Qiang then took a few steps closer to Qian Bojun and shouted, "Commander, we can no longer conceal this matter. If the Japanese know we ambushed him, we will miss this opportunity if we don't take action now!"

"You're fucking bullshit!"

Qian Bojun took a few steps back and hurriedly explained, "What do you mean by 'we'? That was you. You set the ambush by yourself. It has nothing to do with me!"

These words made Xiao Ye's face darken instantly. He didn't care who did it, he only cared about who to seek revenge on: "Qian Sang, the time is up, it seems I still need to do it myself."

"Battalion Commander, let's do it!"

"Shut up! I'm not your battalion commander!"

Qian Bojun once again took a few steps away, retreated to his own team, and shouted, "Catch them for me!"

At the same time, Qiangzi received Lin Qiang's order and shot Xiaoye in the head.

But the shot did not hit Ono, but hit another Japanese soldier.

When Qian Bojun gave the order, Ono's guards were worried that he would be hurt, so they stepped forward to block Ono with their bodies, and Qiangzi also fired at this time. In this way, the guards blocked the fatal damage for Ono.

When the gunshots rang out, Qian Bojun panicked for a moment. Lin Qiang seized the opportunity and fired continuously in the direction of the Japanese.

Qiangzi also kept shooting, but Xiaoye escaped every time, so he turned the gun and aimed at Qian Bojun's direction.

Finding that he still couldn't lock onto the target, Qian Bojun panicked and lost his way in the team. He was also escorted by his men and was unable to kill him.

Ono retreated into the team and angrily gave the order: "Kill them all!"

"Hi!"

At this time, Ono didn't care where this place was. Anger had occupied his mind. He didn't expect that Qian Bojun not only colluded with the Eighth Route Army, but also wanted to take the opportunity to kill him.

The team in a row was at the back and a big battle was about to break out, but it was Qian Bojun's men who suffered a great loss and were attacked from both sides.

The goal has been achieved, and Lin Qiang has sufficient reasons to attack Qian Bojun's team. He doesn't have to worry about Chu Yunfei holding him accountable later.

Maybe we'll have to send another batch of weapons to thank the first platoon!

"Huzi, lead the men to retreat!"

"Yes!"

Lin Qiang also gave Qiangzi the order to retreat, but he himself ran deep into Dagu Town.

The fighting on the front battlefield was already fierce. Under the powerful artillery bombardment of the Japanese, the remaining troops of Qian Bojun were simply vulnerable and were beaten back step by step.

They couldn't retreat back into the town, worried that Lin Qiang would be waiting for them there.

In desperation, Qian Bojun had to order a retreat deep into the 358th Regiment's defense zone. He bet that the Japanese would not dare to go deep into the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army's defense zone.

But he didn't know that Lin Qiang had already guessed that he would do this. Wu Zhe and his men were lying in ambush in the woods by the roadside. As soon as Qian Bojun showed up, they would open fire without hesitation.

Wu Zhe also knew that this was a test given to them by Lin Qiang, and he explained the situation to his brothers in advance. As a result, no one thought that they could not do it, and they all said that they would shoot the traitors and their running dogs without hesitation.

A row of soldiers withdrew from the battlefield from behind the town, and it would take some time for them to meet up with Wu Zhe.

Qian Bojun led his team to retreat all the way. Seeing that the Japanese did not continue to pursue them, he finally felt relieved.

This was a narrow escape at the cost of nearly half of the team's talents. Qian Bojun knew his current situation. The Japanese had no chance anymore, not to mention the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. He would definitely die if he went back.

In this case, there is only one last resort, which is to become a bandit.

Although there was only less than one-third of the troops left, this was enough for Qian Bojun to follow the example of Xie Baoqing, occupy the mountain and become the king, and live a peaceful life.

But when he thought about his dream of getting promoted and making money being shattered, he was so angry that his teeth itched: "Damn Lin Qiang, sooner or later I will make you pay the price!"

Looking at his adjutant, Qian Bojun felt more at ease. With him around, the days ahead wouldn't be too difficult.

However, the sudden sound of gunfire completely disrupted Qian Bojun's plan.

The team is continuing to retreat. According to Qian Bojun's idea, they will first retreat close to the regiment headquarters, and then leave the range of Dagu Mountain, or even leave the northwest of Shanxi.

He hadn't expected to be ambushed along the way. The first person he thought of was Lin Qiang. He fired and shouted, "Lin Qiang, now that things have come to this, why are you still trying to kill me? Can't you just give me a way out?"

"I'm not Lin Qiang!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Bojun ordered his men to stop shooting, but still did not dare to risk leaving the bunker: "Since it's not Lin Qiang, then this is all a misunderstanding. My men have stopped shooting. Can you please make way?"

"My last name is Qian, listen carefully!"

Wu Zhe raised his gun and aimed at Qian Bojun's position, shouting, "As long as you and your men walk out of the bunker with your hands raised, I will let you live. Otherwise, this will be your burial place!"

"Mr. Qian, you only have one minute to think about this!"

Wu Zhe continued, "Think about it yourself. How many people do you have left? How much ammunition do you have? What will you do after you run out of it?"

These words made many of Qian Bojun's men want to surrender. After a psychological struggle, some of them walked out of the bunker with their hands raised high: "Don't shoot, I surrender!"

"asshole!"

Qian Bojun could only watch these people surrender. Although he wanted to shoot these cowards, he held back in order to stabilize the morale of the army.

What made him even angrier was that seeing those who had surrendered before leave the battlefield unharmed made more people think about surrendering.

As more and more people surrendered, Qian Bojun could no longer bear it. He raised his hand and shot one of them dead, saying viciously: "Anyone who dares to surrender will suffer the same fate as him!"

The brutal means did frighten many people, but they could not completely stabilize the morale of the army. Some people had already quietly slipped away from the dark, unwilling to stay here and wait for death.

"Time is up!"

Wu Zhe raised his hand to signal everyone to put down their guns and ordered: "No one is allowed to shoot for a while, so as not to accidentally hurt your own people."

"Mr. Qian, I can let you pass, but whether you can make it through depends on you!"
