The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 44: A Trip to the Shanghai Concession

On a land ravaged by the Japanese army's iron hoofs, Lei Tao and his guerrillas temporarily camped in a secluded camp. The morning sun struggled through the mist, illuminating these resolute faces. Lei Tao called the guerrilla leader aside and said solemnly, "Captain, if we want to effectively fight the Japanese, what we have now is far from enough."

The guerrilla leader frowned slightly, with a puzzled look in his eyes: "Lei Tao, what do you think?"

Lei Tao took a deep breath and looked at the guerrilla leader with a determined gaze: "When I returned to China, I had already set up a secret weapons and equipment supply station in the Shanghai Concession. There are the equipment we urgently need. With those, we have a better chance of winning."

The guerrilla leader's eyes lit up, but then he became worried again: "The Shanghai Concession is not peaceful. There are spies everywhere, and the Japanese are watching us. It's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Lei Tao patted the guerrilla leader's shoulder, his lips curled up slightly: "Don't worry, Captain. I have my own way. I have to go for this matter. I am familiar with the route and situation there. Too many people will make us more easily exposed."

The guerrilla leader was still a little worried. He held Lei Tao's arm tightly and said, "You must be very careful! This team can't be without you."

Lei Tao nodded: "I know. When I'm away, you have to organize the guerrillas' training well. Now we have to practice these special warfare techniques we have learned, especially the sentry, concealment and infiltration with makeup. Our future battles will depend on these skills."

The guerrilla leader nodded vigorously. "Don't worry, I'll make sure the training is done well. The soldiers are all full of energy and will definitely not slack off."

Lei Tao looked at the guerrillas in training, his eyes full of hope: "These brothers are great. After this training, they will be even more powerful. When I bring back the weapons and equipment, we will give the Japanese a bigger blow."

"By the way," Lei Tao took out a simple hand-drawn map from his pocket and handed it to the guerrilla leader. "These are several places in the surrounding area that I marked that are suitable for guerrilla warfare. If there is an emergency, you can take your brothers to retreat to these places first. Also, keep in touch with the underground party. Intelligence work is crucial."

The guerrilla leader took the map and looked at it carefully: "I understand, Lei Tao. Be careful on your way, we will wait for you to come back."

Lei Tao turned around and prepared to set off. He looked back at the camp and said, "Wait until I come back, and we'll beat the Japs into a pulp together!" After saying that, he resolutely walked towards the Shanghai Concession.

Lei Tao sped along, exhausted after a day's journey, his eyes sharp. He was walking down a secluded path when the roar of a motorcycle shattered the silence. He quickly ducked into the brush by the roadside and peered over. He saw a Japanese soldier, carrying a circular map cylinder on his back, riding a sidecar motorcycle with a Japanese major on board, heading from Shanghai to Nanjing. The motorcycle's glare in the sunlight seemed to flaunt the Japanese army's might, but Lei Tao saw this as a golden opportunity.

A sneer played on Lei Tao's lips, and he thought to himself, "Just when I was looking for a way to get around, this 'transport team' was so thoughtfully sent by the Japanese. If I don't accept it, I'll be so sorry for their kindness." He quietly observed the Japanese troops' movements, calculating the best time to act. The two Japanese soldiers were still unaware, chatting in Japanese as they drove, their laughter piercing Lei Tao's ears. Lei Tao clenched his fists, ready to surprise them.

Lei Tao hid in the brush by the roadside, like a lurking cheetah, his eyes fixed on the Japanese troops on the road. He expertly drew his VSS silenced sniper rifle from the Bagua gyroscope, his movements seamless and seamless. The rifle, gleaming in the sunlight, shone with a cool, metallic sheen, as if eager for battle.

He carefully removed the magazine and examined the bullets within with an intense gaze. Each bullet sat neatly in the magazine, like a soldier waiting to go to battle. He gently stroked the magazine, muttering to himself, "Man, I've missed you so much! I'll use these three Japs as a sacrifice for you! Let them have a taste of your subsonic rations..." His voice was low and firm, filled with hatred for the enemy and a thirst for battle.

As he spoke, he quickly installed the magazine. The "click" sound was particularly clear in the silent grass, like a battle horn. Then, he pulled the bolt with his backhand, loading the bullet into the chamber, his movements as smooth as flowing water. Then, he turned the safety to single shot, each operation precise and accurate, showcasing his superb shooting skills.
