I used the Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword) to fight the Japanese.

In the cemetery, a white-haired, white-bearded traditional Chinese medicine doctor was treating Manxin's wounds. A pile of blood-stained gauze lay scattered around him as the old man painstakingly removed two shrapnel fragments from the wounds. After applying medicine to stop the bleeding and bandaging the wounds, the old man was drenched in sweat!

"The wound has been treated, but the child has started to have a fever, and the situation is not optimistic! The best thing to do is to give him two injections of penicillin. The Japanese control this drug very strictly, and none of the clinics have it in stock. If you can get some from the Japanese, there is hope for the child!" the doctor said in a deep voice.

"Isn't there...any other way?" Manxiang asked anxiously. Right now, they were still running for their lives; who knew when they'd get their hands on penicillin!

"I'll prescribe some medicine to stabilize the child's condition, but you must get penicillin within two days! Otherwise, it's up to fate!" the doctor said.

"Alright! Thank you for your trouble, old man! How much is it in total? I'll give it to you all at once." He said, taking out a dozen or so Chinese yuan from his pocket and handing them over.

"Children, forget about the money! I can see that you are risking your lives against the Japanese. These days, anyone who dares to fight the Japanese is a hero! This old man has no ability to help, but as long as I can save this child's life, that's my contribution!" The doctor said, looking at the young man lying on the grave with emotion.

"Well... alright! I won't stand on ceremony with you, I'll go back with you to get the medicine right now!" Now is not the time to be polite, I'll repay the old man another time when I have the chance.

"The Japanese are coming! Prepare for battle!" Man Cang commanded at that moment.

The crowd quickly grabbed their weapons and lay down on the grave mound to stand guard. Manxiang pulled the doctor to the center and made him squat down: "Old man, squat here and don't show your face. We'll take you home after we drive off the Japanese!"

"Alright! You go ahead with your work! This old man will stay here and wait for you, old shopkeeper!" the doctor said, plopping down in bed.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but right next to it was his ancestral grave!

At this moment, the Japanese soldiers were less than two hundred meters away from the cemetery. Seeing the bare-backed Japanese soldiers, Man Cang felt much more at ease. The enemy only numbered sixty-odd, and without bulletproof vests, they weren't without a fighting chance. After all, Tiger still had two 'Hog' helicopters!

"Fire!" Man Cang decisively ordered the attack to begin. At such close range, they couldn't possibly believe that a sudden, coordinated attack would surprise the enemy!

"Shhhhhhh!"

At the opportune moment, a flurry of arrows shot out into the distance, instantly enveloping the Japanese soldiers who were advancing in search formation!

Without the bulletproof vest, the effect was immediately apparent; a hail of arrows took down more than a dozen Japanese soldiers in an instant!

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

In the blink of an eye, the Japanese counterattack came, and the brothers were pressed down on the graves, not daring to show their faces!

This was the most difficult time for Mancang and his men. Outnumbered and with their crossbows unable to fire far, relying solely on those dozen or so women was clearly insufficient against so many Japanese soldiers. Their only weapons were rocket launchers and machine guns. The rocket launchers were problematic; loading them took time, and without prior preparation, continuous firing was difficult. They had plenty of machine guns in the stockade, but they were desperately short of them at this moment! They had only brought one as their ultimate weapon!

Moreover, after the battle at Laohegou, only two of their launchers remained! After that launch, Hu Zi and his team are rushing to reload.

"Shhhhhhh!"

Finally, when the Japanese soldiers rushed within 100 meters, they fired again in a swarm, and a volley of arrows took down more than twenty Japanese soldiers! The gunfire was noticeably less frequent!

"Yoshi! The enemy's arrow volley takes time to fire, rabbit, give it a shot!" Inoue Masao saw through the trick by observing the time it took for the two arrow volleys to fire. At this moment, the troops were less than 100 meters away from the cypress forest, which gave him hope of victory!

The thirty-odd men beneath them, ignoring the wounded soldiers, charged forward, firing their guns as they went. They didn't care that their feet were pierced by stubble; victory would surely be theirs once they reached the cypress forest!

"Bang bang bang bang!"

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

The thirty-odd Japanese soldiers fought with the momentum of over a hundred men, their bullets covering the grove and suppressing the enemy from showing their faces!

"Shhhhhhh!"

Just as they rushed within fifty meters, short arrows shot out from the woods. Unlike the rain of arrows, these short arrows were clearly aimed, and they were like bullets, heading straight for people. If you weren't careful, you would be hit and die!

"Get down! Crawl forward! Throw grenades!"

Inoue Masao was shocked to see the short arrow suddenly shot out. He hadn't expected his opponent to have such a trick up their sleeve! It reminded him of the bulletproof vest he had developed. If that thing were still around, there would be no need for all this trouble!

However, victory is within reach. This is the closest we've come since we started playing against each other. We must grit our teeth and persevere no matter what!

"Boom boom boom!"

The grenade exploded outside the cemetery, sending earth and rocks flying and creating waves of dust!

It wasn't that the Japanese soldiers' grenade-throwing skills were inadequate; it was the dense cypress forest that saved Mancang and his men. The grenades were thrown into the air, blocked by the branches and leaves, and didn't even land in the cemetery! They only managed to create a spectacular explosion on the outside!

However, the Japanese didn't come away empty-handed. The moment the grenade exploded, they were already thirty meters away from the cemetery! Less than twenty meters away, they could rush into the woods and wipe out the enemy!

……

"Brothers! Charge with your Mo Dao! The Japanese only outnumber us by a dozen or so! With so many hunting dogs, we have a good chance of taking them all down! This is the first time our Mo Dao Regiment has fought the Japanese in real combat, so get your spirits up!" Man Cang shouted in a deep voice as he saw the Japanese soldiers close at hand in the cemetery.

"Damn! My usual training is finally coming in handy!" Tiger excitedly pulled out his longsword. His previous battle against four Japanese soldiers on the hillside in the old river ditch, where he fought them to a standstill, had greatly boosted his confidence! Now, with only a handful of Japanese soldiers, how could he be afraid!

"Let's fight!" The remaining brothers drew their long swords, ready for a fierce battle. The Japanese were right in front of them; it was time to fight to the death!

"Kill!" Man Cang stood up and charged towards the Japanese soldiers!

"Whoosh!" Tiger whistled, and all the hunting dogs followed suit. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen men and over forty dogs rushed out of the cemetery and pounced on the Japanese soldiers! They charged with an overwhelming momentum!

……

"Baka! Here comes the rabbit!"

On the other side, Inoue Masao was also excited to see that the other side still dared to charge out! Fighting Imperial soldiers with bayonets—he didn't know where the other side got the courage! Since setting foot on this continent, they had never lost a bayonet charge!

He certainly saw those hunting dogs; they were just hairy beasts. How could they scare the Imperial Japanese Army?

"Yoshi! All you lowly Chinese people, die!"

"You lowly commoners, get to work!"

"Dead!"

The Japanese soldiers also got excited. They had been harassed by the enemy's arrows for so long and were full of resentment! How could they let go of the opportunity to fight face to face?
