The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Lei Tao stood guard at the rooftop stairwell, his body as tense as a drawn bow, his eyes fixed, his heart filled with unwavering faith and fearless courage, as he awaited the arrival of the Japanese army with utter concentration. He knew he was about to face an extremely brutal battle, but his face showed no fear, his only thought being to avenge the innocent civilians and the remaining brave soldiers of the National Security Army.

His mind raced, mulling over a strategy, deciding to take full advantage of the narrow stairwell and adopt a defensive tactic. He carefully inspected his weapons and equipment, ensuring each piece was in top condition. He placed his AK-200 assault rifle securely beside him, his MP-443 Raven pistol and dagger neatly within easy reach.

While waiting, Lei Tao, stooping, took the opportunity to search the building with light, cautious steps. In one room, he discovered a wooden barrel used by residents for nighttime defecation. Without hesitation, he decided to use it to set a bomb trap. He quickly crouched down and swiftly found explosives and a fuse. He carefully placed the explosives into the barrel, then meticulously connected the fuse. Finally, he carefully placed the barrel at the stairwell and in strategic locations.

After setting the trap, Lei Tao lowered his body and hurriedly and silently returned to the roof. After lying down, he tightly grasped the modified Type 81 assault rifle with both hands, carefully observing the movements of the Japanese soldiers below through the scope, and when the time was right, he decisively and accurately shot and killed two Japanese soldiers.

At this moment, a Japanese sniper on the opposite building spotted Lei Tao. Lei Tao's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly sensed the mortal danger. He quickly turned sideways, then lunged forward, quickly rolling behind the nearby bunker. As soon as he hid, the sniper's bullet whizzed and hit him where he had just been.

Lei Tao crouched behind cover, his heart racing as his mind rapidly calculated the sniper's firing rate and angles. Suddenly, he took a deep breath, quickly stood up from a half-crouch, and fired. The sniper reacted quickly, ducking to avoid the attack. Lei Tao took the opportunity to bend over and quickly reposition. The two sides remained in a tense standoff, their eyes wide open, searching for the other's flaws.

Suddenly, Lei Tao's eyes caught sight of the sniper's kitchen, which contained a kerosene stove. His eyes lit up, and he quickly aimed and fired, accurately damaging the stove and causing the kerosene to leak out. The sniper was startled by the sudden incident, and Lei Tao fired again, his bullet accurately hitting the kitchen knife on the ground. With a "ding" sound, sparks flew, and the kitchen fire instantly ignited.

The fire spread rapidly, and thick smoke billowed in. The Japanese sniper was choked by the smoke and coughed violently. He ignored Lei Tao's threat, crouched down, and staggered to his feet to move to another position.

As Lei Tao engaged the Japanese sniper in a fierce duel, another mortar team from the Japanese squad fired a mortar shell at the rooftop where Lei Tao was standing. Hearing the whistling sound of the shell, Lei Tao suddenly leaped and rolled into the nearby depression. The shell exploded on the rooftop, kicking up a cloud of dust and debris.

Lei Tao took advantage of the gap between the explosions, quickly stood up, and aimed at the Japanese sniper opposite again. Just as the sniper gently opened a gap in another window and raised his gun to aim at Lei Tao, Lei Tao decisively pulled the trigger. With a "bang", the sniper's head was instantly blown up, and blood and brain matter splattered everywhere.

After killing the Japanese sniper, Lei Tao quickly pulled out a flash bullet from the ammunition pouch on his waist and loaded it into the gun chamber with skillful movements. He half-crouched, his eyes fixed on the Japanese mortar position, his arm steadily raised, and aimed at the target.

He took a deep breath and gently squeezed the trigger. The flare bullet instantly shot out of the gun chamber, carrying a streak of light towards the Japanese mortar position.

The flare bullet hit the mortar shell accurately. The moment the shell hit, there was a dazzling spark, followed by a dull thud.

The immense force of the explosion instantly knocked over surrounding Japanese soldiers, scattering mortar parts everywhere. Flames and thick smoke rose into the sky, and the entire mortar position fell into chaos.

The shock wave generated by the explosion spread in all directions, breaking nearby trees in half and creating a large hole in the ground.

When Lei Tao saw this scene, he was sure that the Japanese mortar position had been completely destroyed, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, Lei Tao suddenly felt something hanging from his chest. He took it out and saw that it was the Bagua spinning top he had been playing with before, which had been hung around his neck with a red string. He frowned, thinking, but couldn't figure it out. At this moment, he heard the sound of people coming up the stairs. He immediately came to his senses, quickly put the spinning top into his left arm pocket, and grabbed the gun with both hands, ready to join the new battle.
