The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 73: The First Guerrilla Raid with Scorpion Submachine Guns

After a period of observation, Lei Tao felt that the guerrillas' training had been quite effective and it was almost time to put it to the test in actual combat. So he decided to discuss with the guerrilla captain and take the team out to see some blood.

In a quiet room, Lei Tao and the captain sat opposite each other. Lei Tao spoke first: "Captain, I think our team members have trained enough. It's time to take them out for a real fight, take down a target, and boost morale."

The captain nodded slightly and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Do you have a goal in mind?"

Lei Tao's eyes were firm as he said, "I've observed for a long time and feel that the Japanese checkpoint built on the mountain pass is a good choice. Although the terrain there is dangerous, it is relatively easy for the enemy to become complacent, and taking it will be of great help to our subsequent operations."

The captain pondered for a moment and responded, "Well, but that place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. We need to plan carefully."

Lei Tao continued, "I've already come up with a preliminary idea. We can send a few smart team members to scout the enemy's troop deployment and shift patterns, and then choose a time when their defenses are at their weakest to launch a surprise attack."

The captain listened and thought, then added, "We also need to consider a way out. In case the situation changes, we can't let the team members fall into a desperate situation."

The two of them talked back and forth, constantly improving the battle plan.

In the early morning, when it was still dark, the guerrillas set out quietly, moving swiftly in silence, their footsteps carefully muffled.

After arriving at the destination, the surrounding environment was shrouded in fog. Lei Tao was delighted, feeling that this was the best time to act. He looked at the Japanese sentries and covert sentries on the high ground and whispered to the guerrilla leader, "Captain, take a team and sneak up quietly. We will fight silently and eliminate the sentries and covert sentries."

The captain nodded, waved his hand, and led a team of members to crouch down and move forward cautiously.

A Japanese sentry stood high, watching with vigilance. A guerrilla fighter approached silently, like a ghost. The moment he reached close, he suddenly covered the soldier's mouth with his hand, and with his other hand, gripping his bayonet, he swiftly and accurately stabbed his throat. The soldier struggled a few times, then fell silent.

Another sentry was hiding in the corner. As soon as he noticed the slightest movement, before he could react, another guerrilla covered his mouth from behind and stabbed him in the back with a bayonet.

However, at this moment, a Japanese soldier accidentally discovered the guerrillas' actions. He panicked and fired a gun to alert the enemy, shouting "Enemy attack!" The battle started instantly.

Lei Tao and his men charged from the front, their Scorpion submachine guns emitting dense and precise fire. Bullets rained down on the Japanese troops, instantly shattering the silence.

The Japanese were caught off guard by the sudden attack, but they quickly reacted and began a frantic resistance. They relied on the fortifications at the checkpoints and fired wildly, with bullets whizzing through the air.

Just as Lei Tao and his men were charging bravely, a hidden machine gun suddenly opened fire, and dense bullets poured down like a rainstorm, suppressing their advance. Two guerrillas were shot and fell to the ground. Lei Tao and his men had to find cover to hide.

At the same time, the deputy captain led the team to advance in a circuitous manner. They carefully avoided the sight of the Japanese army and quietly approached the blind spots of the Japanese machine gun bunkers and artillery fire points...

When approaching the target, the deputy captain gave the order, and the guerrilla grenade team members simultaneously pulled the grenade fuse, delayed it for 2 seconds, and then threw it at various targets with all their might...

"Boom! Boom!" A series of loud explosions erupted, and flames shot up into the sky. The Japanese machine gun bunker was blown to pieces, and the Japanese soldiers inside were buried in the rubble, screaming in pain. The artillery tower and firing point also crumbled in the explosion, and the Japanese soldiers inside were panicked.

The hidden machine gun was also successfully destroyed by the attack of the deputy captain and others, relieving the suppression of Lei Tao and others.

At this moment, a Japanese sergeant with a ferocious face attempted to throw a grenade in a last-ditch effort. Lei Tao, with his sharp eyes, instantly noticed his move. Without hesitation, Lei Tao raised his Scorpion and charged, unleashing a barrage of bullets at the sergeant. In an instant, the sergeant was riddled with bullets, and before he could throw the grenade, it fell into a machine gun bunker where several other Japanese soldiers were stationed.

With a loud bang, the Japanese soldier in the machine gun bunker was blown away by his own grenade, and his limbs and equipment were scattered everywhere.

Lei Tao and his men seized this opportunity and quickly broke into the Japanese checkpoint. Upon entering, they encountered stiff resistance. A Japanese soldier, bayonet drawn, charged, shouting in Japanese, "Long live the Emperor of Japan!" A guerrilla dodged and kicked the Japanese soldier in the back, sending him sprawling to the ground. A nearby comrade, armed with his Scorpion submachine gun, fired a burst of bullets at the soldier, cursing, "You stupid little Jap, you're still so arrogant? You're so careless!"

In another direction, two Japanese soldiers set up their light machine guns and fired wildly. The bullets sent clouds of dust flying around the guerrillas. Lei Tao rolled behind an obstacle, then leaned out and fired a burst of shots from his Scorpion rifle, instantly knocking the two Japanese machine gunners to the ground.

In a room at the checkpoint, several Japanese soldiers hid behind windows, firing continuously. The guerrillas coordinated their efforts: one member drew the Japanese fire while another went around to the back of the room, kicked open the door, and threw in several grenades. With a few loud bangs, the Japanese soldiers in the room fell silent.

At that moment, a burly, grim-faced Japanese officer, like a wild beast out of control, frantically brandished his gleaming saber, shouting orders at the few remaining Japanese troops in a vain attempt at a final struggle. His eyes were bloodshot, nearly popping out of their sockets, filled with endless madness and despair.

The guerrillas pressed forward step by step. They cleverly used the terrain and tactics, gradually tightening the encirclement. Like an invisible net, they pushed the stubbornly resisting Japanese troops step by step into a desperate situation - a narrow and dark corner.

Lei Tao stood in front of the team, his posture straight as a pine tree, his eyes sharp as an eagle, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "Put down your weapons and surrender obediently, I can spare your lives!" However, the Japanese officer who had fallen into a state of madness was not moved at all. Instead, he roared hysterically like a madman: "Baga!" Then, he raised his saber desperately, and rushed straight towards Lei Tao like a mad bull, obviously wanting to fight to the death.

In a flash, Lei Tao and the other guerrillas unhesitatingly pulled the triggers of their Scorpion submachine guns. Suddenly, a barrage of gunfire erupted, like a torrential downpour, instantly engulfing the Japanese officer and the several soldiers behind him who were attempting to follow the charge. Bullets pierced their bodies mercilessly, sending up clouds of bloody mist. These once-invincible invaders were reduced to shattered sieves in the blink of an eye.

Perhaps it was the long-suppressed anger at the Japanese atrocities that erupted, or perhaps it was the indescribable satisfaction of personally annihilating these detestable invaders. In short, when the guerrillas emptied their magazines, each of them felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration. It was a feeling that was hard to explain; it was unclear whether it came from the joy of successful revenge or the simple pleasure of witnessing the enemy being reduced to ashes before their eyes.

However, everyone didn't dwell on this sentiment for long. After a brief pause, they quickly replaced their magazines and immediately resumed their fierce battle to eliminate the remaining enemies...

As the last gunshot faded into the air, the battle finally came to a close. On the smoke-filled battlefield, the bodies of Japanese soldiers lay scattered across the battlefield. Lei Tao, looking solemnly at the devastated scene before him, suddenly declared, "We must not let our guard down. We must finish off every Japanese corpse and ensure that no one escapes!" The guerrilla leader then added that some of his men should rush to rescue the wounded. The guerrillas responded, splitting up to rescue the wounded, finishing off the wounded...

After finishing off all the Japanese corpses, the guerrillas hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield and moved away with the wounded and the captured spoils...
