After two days of rest, Cheng Ying went to patrol the villages near Lincheng again. Cheng Ying led a small team on the road, and just as they reached the sky above Lishu Village, a buzzing sound came from above. Looking up, they saw that it was enemy planes circling overhead.

"This is bad," Mu Tou said. "It must be a Japanese reconnaissance plane. If it fires two shells at us now, we're all doomed."

The plane was flying very low, so Cheng Ying and the others quickly found a place to hide and lay down to conceal themselves.

Just as she hid, Cheng Ying worried about the villagers in Lishu Village. She shouted from Mu Tou's direction, "Mu Tou, you guys hide well! I'm going to the village to warn the villagers to hide too!"

Wood replied from the other end, "Okay, be careful."

Cheng Ying: "Okay, no problem, just hide well!"

When Cheng Ying arrived at Lishu Village, she used the houses as cover to avoid the planes overhead. She went into the nearest house, where two children were playing outside. Oh my God! These people really don't know how harmful these planes are, yet they are still playing outside.

Cheng Ying immediately asked the two children anxiously, "Where are your parents?"

One of the boys said, "Dad went to the fields, and Mom is in the backyard."

Cheng Ying immediately added, "Go and call your mother over."

Upon hearing Cheng Ying's words, the little boy immediately ran to the backyard to call his mother.

Just then, another plane appeared in the sky. Good heavens, another plane, no, two Japanese planes came. They're really going all out. Are they planning to bomb this village?

Just then, the child's mother arrived, and she too was startled when she saw the plane in the sky.

Cheng Ying said, "Sister-in-law, I'm a soldier in the army. I was passing through your village and saw planes. I'm afraid they'll come and bomb our village. Can you tell me where the village chief's house is?"

"Yes, is this Comrade Cheng? I know you. You were there when you distributed grain last time. The village chief's house is the third house from the back at the west end of the village."

Cheng Ying immediately said, "Sister-in-law, quickly take the child and hide him in a secluded place. Don't come out yet. We'll talk about it after the enemy leaves. It's very dangerous right now. I'm going to inform the village chief."

Upon hearing this, the woman said anxiously, "Oh dear, my husband is still in the fields, I have to go find him!"

Cheng Ying said, "Sister-in-law, listen to me. You should hide now. I'll go find the village chief and ask him to call for help. It'll be safer that way. If you run around aimlessly and enemy reconnaissance planes spot you, they'll drop bombs."

Upon hearing this, the young woman had no choice but to comply for the sake of her child's safety.

"By the way, sister-in-law, don't hide in the house, or the bomb will blow the house down."

This sister-in-law was quite obedient; as soon as she heard that the house would be blown up, she immediately found another place to hide, while Cheng Ying quickly ran towards the village chief's house.

As they approached the village chief's house, they saw a family running out of it. It turned out that the village chief knew that enemy planes were coming and told everyone to quickly find a place to hide.

The family that came out was the village chief's son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. He told them to go to each household and tell them what had happened.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Ying quickly walked over to the village chief and said, "Village chief, I am Cheng Ying from the Lincheng military unit. Do you still recognize me?"

Upon seeing Cheng Ying, the village chief immediately recognized her. "I know her, I know her! Isn't this Comrade Cheng? I just saw enemy reconnaissance planes coming, and I was afraid they would bomb the village, so I sent my son and the others to warn everyone to take cover."

Cheng Ying: "Yes, Uncle Village Chief, that's what I came for too. Also, the woman from the family I just visited said her husband is still in the fields and asked me to let them know. I don't know where their land is, so could you please go and find it?"

The village chief said, "That's no problem. I'll send someone over to check in a bit. Most of them are in the fields. They have a better chance of spotting enemy planes in open areas. They should know to hide as soon as they see the planes coming."

Seeing that the village chief had made arrangements in an orderly manner, Cheng Ying said, "Uncle Village Chief, you all find a place to hide. My comrades and I will find a way to shoot down those planes. But remember not to run into the house. Find a grove of trees or bushes to hide in. You don't need to do anything else, just make sure you are safe." The village chief replied, "Okay, okay, Comrade Cheng, be careful!"

Before the village chief could finish speaking, Cheng Ying turned around and hid behind the house.

The planes in the sky kept circling, as if they were looking for something. They could drop bombs at any moment, so she had to find a way to shoot them down first!

As they were talking, a plane started firing its machine gun indiscriminately in all directions.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Cheng Ying used her lightning-based superpower to strike the plane down. With a loud bang, the plane exploded on the ground.

When the other two planes saw that one of their planes had been destroyed, they reacted immediately by flying a little higher and then dropping bombs, which destroyed several houses and walls below.

Cheng Ying quickly used her supernatural ability to create a lightning barrier above the village in an attempt to block the bomb attack.

However, as the number of bombs dropped by the planes increased, the lightning barrier gradually became unable to hold up.

Just then, Cheng Ying's teammates arrived and joined the battle, but their guns were hard to hit the plane. In an instant, flames soared into the sky and smoke filled the air.

Seeing that this wouldn't work, Cheng Ying removed the lightning barrier, figuring that defeating the enemy one by one was still a better chance.

So Cheng Ying, just like before, concentrated her lightning power and shot it at a plane. With a loud bang, the plane was also disintegrated. Great, there's still one left!

Seeing that another plane had been destroyed, the people on board opened fire with machine guns. The comrades immediately ducked and lay down to avoid the bullets. While everyone was lying down, Cheng Ying gathered her lightning powers again and struck the fuel tank of the plane. Finally, the last plane was shot down.

The teammates were filled with disbelief. What had happened? Who had helped them shoot down the plane?

Just as they were wondering, they saw Cheng Ying carrying a sniper rifle. It turned out that Cheng Ying had shot it down. Of course, this was a sniper rifle that Cheng Ying had taken out from her space later to cover up her lightning-type superpower. This sniper rifle was a trophy that she had stolen from the Japanese and had never used it before. This time, she was just putting on a show.

With everyone's joint efforts, the remaining two planes were finally shot down. The villagers cheered and thanked Cheng Ying and her teammates for saving their lives.

Looking at the devastated village, Cheng Ying felt a pang of guilt and self-reproach; it seemed her abilities were still too limited.

She secretly resolved to cultivate even harder and protect those around her.
