The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War
Chapter 16 Minefield Explodes
In the chaos following the minefield explosion, darkness hung like a vast curtain, enveloping the forest filled with smoke and fear. Lei Tao moved through the darkness like a ghost, always on high alert.
He keenly discovered two lone traitors who were hiding aside, observing their surroundings nervously. Lei Tao immediately stopped and quietly hid aside, observing their every move.
He slowly drew out his dagger, holding it tightly between his teeth, his eyes revealing determination and coldness. Then, he carefully moved around, like a lurking cheetah, silently approaching his target. Every step was extremely cautious, fearing the slightest sound.
When he was less than five meters behind the two traitors, he squatted down and carefully looked around again to make sure no one had noticed him. At this time, his heartbeat quickened slightly, but his eyes remained calm.
Suddenly, Lei Tao leaped to his feet like lightning, his right hand swiftly grasping the dagger he'd been holding in his mouth. His gaze fixed on the traitor furthest from him. He gathered his strength for a moment, then hurled the dagger with all his might. A flash of cold light flashed through the darkness, darting precisely towards his target.
At the same time, Lei Tao rushed at an extremely fast speed to the back of the traitor closest to him. Before the traitor could react, he suddenly grabbed the traitor's head and twisted his neck in an instant. The traitor fell limply without even a scream.
The traitor who had been struck by the dagger also fell to the ground in pain, uttering a faint groan. Without hesitation, Lei Tao quickly stepped forward, pulled out the dagger stuck in the traitor's body, and decisively finished off the two traitors. Then, he skillfully took out their guns and holsters, as well as the accompanying magazines, ammunition, and other supplies, and quickly placed them in the Bagua Gyro space.
Lei Tao then took out the two Mauser C96 pistols he had just acquired, his gaze slowly wandering over them, a complex emotion evident in his eyes. He murmured softly, "This pistol, so shunned and unwilling to be used in Western countries, blossomed with unique brilliance on the war-torn battlefields of the Anti-Japanese War in China. It witnessed the unyielding struggle of countless Chinese people and became a powerful weapon against the invaders."
At this point, Lei Tao raised both rifles, holding them flat before him, his eyes blazing as he aimed in the direction of the Japanese squad leader and several other soldiers. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger, and bullets whizzed out, swooping down on the enemy like angry wasps. The Japanese soldiers, struck by bullets, panicked and scrambled for cover. Some hid desperately behind rocks, trembling; others lay prone on the ground, faces etched with terror. Some of the wounded soldiers collapsed in agony, screaming, "Ah! Help me, it hurts so much!" Nearby Japanese soldiers, terrified, some tried to rescue their wounded comrades, while others nervously scanned their surroundings, searching for the source of the attack.
Amidst the chaos, the Japanese squad leader struggled to maintain composure, quickly determining the attacker's position. Soon, they seemed to have discovered their approximate location. The squad leader immediately brandished his sword and shouted, "Fire that way!" The Japanese soldiers raised their rifles and fired wildly at the spot where Lei Tao had fired. Bullets rained down like raindrops, sending sparks flying from the surrounding rocks and trees.
Lei Tao calmly observed the Japanese troops' movements. Suddenly, his gaze focused on a single spot. He saw several Japanese soldiers crouching close together, their bodies trembling slightly, as if seeking a greater sense of security. Lei Tao's lips curled up slightly, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes. He whispered, "You're lying so well, waiting for your Yamata no Orochi to explode your buttholes? Yeah, there's a reward." Lei Tao quietly moved closer to the Japanese positions, where he could see their movements, but behind a thorn bush where they were difficult to spot... After some thought, he considered using one grenade to blow them up, but felt that might not be enough, so he decided to use three...
Lei Tao quickly pulled three grenades from his possession. He nimbly found some vines on the ground and tightly wrapped the three grenades together, ensuring they wouldn't break apart during the throw. He then grabbed a handful of sharp rocks and carefully wrapped them around the grenades. These rocks would explode like countless deadly bullets, inflicting even more devastating damage on the enemy.
Lei Tao gripped his makeshift "weapon" tightly, his eyes cold and determined. He pulled the safety pin, but didn't throw it immediately. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and Lei Tao silently counted down: "Three, two, one." For Lei Tao, these brief three seconds were a period of calm waiting, a precise grasp of the timing.
Three seconds later, Lei Tao raised his arm and threw the deadly grenade at the Japanese soldiers who were lying on the ground with all his strength. The grenade drew a sharp arc in the air, carrying Lei Tao's anger and determination, flying towards the enemy.
The package streaked across the night sky like a meteor, reaching its target area in an instant. A resounding "boom" rang out, as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was splitting. Flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the surrounding darkness. The powerful blast wave, like a ferocious beast, lashed out in all directions.
The moment the grenade exploded, the vines entwined with it were instantly severed, and the angular rocks surrounding it flew in all directions like countless bullets. The Japanese soldiers had no time to react before they were struck by the sudden explosion and the flying rocks. Their bodies were riddled with holes, and blood splattered everywhere. Some were blown away, their bodies twisted into strange shapes in the air; others were struck in the head by rocks, instantly killing them. The surrounding trees and rocks were shattered by the impact, and debris flew everywhere.
With a deafening roar, the entire area was instantly engulfed by the explosion. Thick smoke billowed like a ferocious beast, baring its fangs and claws, rapidly filling the air. The pungent smell of gunpowder seemed to penetrate one's nose and reach deep into the throat, causing a wave of nausea and retching.
Looking back at the spot where the Japanese soldiers had stood, it had now become a bottomless, massive crater several meters in diameter. Around the crater lay shattered bodies, shattered limbs scattered everywhere, blood staining the ground red. Those once-imposing Japanese soldiers were now a lifeless, bloody mess. Their weapons and equipment were scattered everywhere, some even embedded in nearby trees and rocks.
Lei Tao stood quietly not far away, watching the horrific scene unfold with an expressionless coldness. His deep eyes held no trace of pity, for he knew full well that the crimes committed by these invaders were innumerable, their actions bringing endless suffering and disaster to countless innocent people. This was simply their deserved fate.
The night was still as thick as ink, tightly enveloping the mountain forest. However, despite the recent devastating explosion, the flames of battle remained unextinguished. On the contrary, like ignited dry wood, it burned brighter and brighter, intensifying.
Like a fearless god of war descending from the sky, Lei Tao, clad in the night, steel rifle in hand, marched with determined and powerful steps across the smoke-filled battlefield. His figure stood out against the glow of the flames and smoke, his every step punctuated by unwavering determination and courage. At this moment, he held a single conviction: to make the enemy pay a heavy price!
