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

"Anti-tank cones" are actually triangular pyramids cast in cement, about half a meter high, and they appeared in the TV series "Snow Leopard." If these are placed at certain intervals on the road, tracked tanks won't be able to pass! Manually dismantling them would take a considerable amount of time! With the battle already underway, there's no time to dismantle these things!

"Baka! Go around here, hurry up!" Tatsuo Shige was shocked. The opponent's fighting style surprised him time and time again after the battle started!

The enemy's ability to quickly pinpoint their artillery positions during the initial artillery battle had already exceeded his expectations, and the anti-tank cones in front of him once again caught his attention. This wasn't the first time he'd seen these things, but each time they'd caused their tanks considerable trouble. Fortunately, there were large fields of crops along the roadside, providing enough space for them to maneuver around them and continue their attack.

The corn in the fields had already been harvested, and the winter wheat had just been planted and had not yet sprouted. The freshly turned soil was soft and spongy underfoot. Tanks left deep ruts as they drove by, and the soldiers' pace slowed down immediately.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as the eight tanks had crossed a raised ridge, a violent explosion came from beneath them! The ground trembled, and three tanks were overturned, their cannon barrels crushed and flipped upside down like overturned turtles!

The other tanks were not spared either. With the continuous explosions, several of them were affected and lay dead on the ground, unable to advance any further!

"Baka! It's an explosive charge with a grenade strapped to it! It's more dangerous than a regular landmine! Machine gun fire and clear it quickly!" Tatsuo Shigeshita shouted the order!

Looking at the overturned tank under the branches, Long Nan finally understood the purpose of those anti-tank cones—deliberately forcing them into the minefield! He wondered which despicable bastard came up with this crazy trick. How could ordinary landmines possibly damage a tank made of steel? Only explosive charges combined with grenades could move this behemoth!

But how did they detonate the explosives?

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

"Boom boom boom!"

As the Japanese machine guns continued to fire across the fields, the explosive charges hidden in the ground exploded, sending scorched earth flying and creating large craters in the fields!

These peasants really went all out to deal with their tanks, using explosives so densely that they created a series of large craters that formed a pond several tens of meters wide!

"What?!" Zhixia Longnan looked on in horror. If they recklessly walked through such a dense array of explosive mines, not only would these eight tanks be wiped out, but it was also uncertain how many of the hundreds of men behind them would survive! What kind of tactic was this? Even the Japanese wouldn't dare to build something like this, would they? Did the Modao Regiment own a mine?

Little did they know that Mancang and his men had emptied out all the explosives they had intercepted last time in order to destroy these iron turtles! They were all blown up in one go, and Qingshui, who was hiding in the tunnel, felt his heart trembling!

"Report! Only two of our eight tanks are still usable; the rest are all destroyed! Repairs will take quite some time!" the soldier reported.

"What?!...Baka!...Leave a few men here to repair, the rest of you keep charging! Let these lowly Chinese know that our Imperial soldiers are not to be trifled with! Even without tanks, we are still the most formidable Imperial warriors!" Tatsuo Shigeshita was truly enraged. He'd never felt so frustrated in all his battles! Before anything even started, their artillery was destroyed, and now only two tanks remained! And the enemy was just ordinary lowly Chinese—he needed a fierce battle to vent his anger!

"Hey!" the soldier shouted back.

This was the first time these soldiers had fought a battle like this, and they were all holding their breath. As soon as they heard that they could continue fighting, they roared and rushed forward.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor, you wrathful black dog, bark your mouth!"

"You wrathful black dog, bark!"

"You wrathful black dog, bark!"

It's unclear which officer shouted it out, but hundreds of Japanese soldiers joined in with a loud shout! The sound was deafening, as if they were venting their frustration and discontent through this shouting!

Soon, the army abandoned several damaged tanks and charged toward the opposite position with a roar!

……

Dozens of meters further into the pit, down the paddy field ridge, the Qing Shui brothers stared in stunned disbelief! First, they were overjoyed to have destroyed several tanks, planning to give the Japanese a good beating once they entered the minefield! But then the Japanese fired a burst of bullets, wasting all the remaining explosives! While the men were still feeling sorry for them, the Japanese started shouting and yelling again, acting like they had gone mad!

"What are those Japanese devils doing? What are they shouting?"

"What's that 'Heavenly Wrath Black Dog' again? What exactly is a 'Heavenly Wrath Black Dog'?"

"Didn't understand? It's just a black dog that angered the heavens! The last two words are 'died unjustly'!"

"Huh? The wrath of Heaven has caused the black dog to die unjustly?! ...Are they talking about themselves? Knowing they died unjustly, why do they still come to bully us ordinary people? Isn't this being hypocritical and hypocritical?"

"Aren't the Japanese just hypocrites? You expect them to have any sense of chivalry or honor?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the Japanese devils' 'Heavenly Wrath of the Black Dog' is proof of that! They themselves have admitted it!"

"Hahaha, they've admitted it themselves!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Alright, the Japanese only have two Iron Turtle tanks left. It's not a loss considering all that explosives wasted! Let's hurry back and report to the battalion commander so we can continue killing the Japanese!" Shimizu stopped everyone's nonsense and gave the order.

"Alright! Keep killing the Japanese devils!" the brothers shouted.

"Company commander! Company commander! There are still a few Japanese soldiers repairing the tank! Why don't you leave me about ten men and I'll go and take them all out! If the Japanese finish repairing the tank, it'll be our brothers who suffer!" Just then, Man Gui pointed at the few Japanese soldiers who were fiddling with the tank and said.

"Huh? Damn it, still not giving up!" Shimizu said resentfully. "So, you've been talking about getting Japanese trucks, right? How about getting tanks?"

"Huh?...What do you mean?" Mangui asked, puzzled.

"Let's wait until they fix it before taking them out! Wouldn't it be a huge fortune if we could learn to drive a tank in a short time?" Shimizu said, his eyes shining.

"Ah!... That's a great idea! If we could fire a couple of shots behind the Japanese... Haha, just thinking about it is so exciting!" The whole store suddenly became lively. Using the Japanese's stuff to fight the Japanese was their usual practice!

"Got it? I'll leave you ten men, and I've already reserved these six tanks. Can you do it?" Shimizu asked excitedly.

"No problem! Just wait to be the boss!" Mangui said boastfully, his eyes gleaming with a thieving light that could turn a light bulb into a thief!

"Hahaha, good! I'm leaving this place to you guys. I'll be waiting for your good news!" Shimizu shouted and turned to leave with his brothers.
