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

While the Japanese were bombarding them with their weapons, Man Xin was growing increasingly anxious! Of their seventy or eighty men, more than twenty had already perished under the Japanese guns in just a short time! Many militiamen were becoming restless. If no effective solution was found, these men would either rush out in a fit of rage to fight the Japanese to the death, or be terrified and never recover! Neither outcome was what he wanted to see!

"I'm here to fight the Japanese invaders and defend our homeland!" Man Xin shouted as he fired his gun! He hoped that by shouting slogans, he could boost the morale of the troops, stabilize their emotions, and continue to fight the Japanese to the bitter end.

"I'm ready to fight the war of resistance and defend my homeland!"

First, the official members of the Mo Dao Regiment who were stationed with him at the gold mine shouted, and then the militiamen also started shouting.

"I'm ready to fight the war of resistance and defend my homeland!"

"I'm ready to fight the war of resistance and defend my homeland!"

"I'm ready to fight the war of resistance and defend my homeland!"

Dozens of people shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens! The cowardice and fear in their hearts seemed to vanish in that instant, and their resolve grew even stronger as they looked at their fallen comrades! Only one thought remained in their minds: to kill the Japanese devils and avenge them!

"Brothers, hold on! I believe Commander Mancang will be here to support us soon. These Japanese devils won't be able to run rampant for long! Kill!" Manxin pressed on while the iron was hot, encouraging everyone to keep going!

"Kill!!"

The crowd shouted in unison again, as if they had seen a glimmer of hope for victory!

"Boom boom boom!"

Another round of shelling destroyed more of the stone dam. Hundreds of meters of the dam wall were shattered, with the outer section almost entirely collapsed, leaving only a small portion of the inner side still standing. Even that was broken into sections, and perhaps the next shelling would reduce it to complete ruins!

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Just then, two loud explosions rang in everyone's ears, making them ring! Even more miraculously, two bundles of explosives, each as thick as a water bucket, flew from nearby towards the Japanese soldiers, landing near a tank and exploding violently again!

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The explosion created two enormous lotus flowers, and one of the tanks was flipped over, with one of its tracks broken in two, making it look like an overturned turtle!

The explosion can only be described with one word: "Awesome!"

"It's Wu Zi and Luo Xiang! Are those cannon barrels that thick?" Man Dou shouted, pointing at Wu Zi and Luo Xiang, who were covering their ears with their hands not far away.

“Is this an oil drum?” Man Xin muttered to himself.

Two large metal fuel drums beside the two men were still emitting black smoke, clearly indicating that the two shots they had just fired were fired from these two behemoths! It's a mystery how these two managed to build them; if these things could be used as cannons, it would be much more convenient to fight the Japanese! There are plenty of these things at the mine!

"Great! There's another one, keep blowing it up, 2D!" Man Xin roared, feeling incredibly satisfied! He had taken down a tank so easily, how awesome was that!

"Brothers, fight hard! The tanks are for the two managers!" Now is not the time to think too much; we'll deal with everything after the battle!

"Shhhhhhh!"

"Ta-ta-ta-ta!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Destroying a tank greatly boosted the morale of the brothers, and they started naming all sorts of weapons even more enthusiastically! As long as there's no iron turtle, these few hundred Japanese soldiers can hold out for a while!

"Boom boom boom!"

The Japanese lost a tank, and after a brief moment of shock, the artillery fire intensified! It seemed they were specifically targeting the black tube from which the explosive charge had been thrown, and the battle between the two sides became even more fierce!

However, the second shot that everyone was looking forward to was delayed. The two men spent more than ten minutes fiddling with loading explosives and tying fuses before they finally started adjusting the angle and aiming.

Isn't this incredibly inefficient? If it weren't for this dilapidated stone dam, we would have died hundreds of times over!

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Two loud bangs, as everyone had been expecting, shook the earth!

Two parabolas streaked across the sky, landing near the last tank under everyone's watchful eyes. Just as everyone expected, two deafening explosions followed, and the last tank broke down!

"Good! Mission accomplished! Both of these things are destroyed!" Wu Zi was overjoyed at the results of the two launches. The destructive power of these primitive weapons was truly remarkable! Apart from the increased range and slightly less-than-ideal accuracy, everything else was great!

This wasn't their original idea; it existed a decade or two ago during the warlord era! The two men were seasoned veterans who had served since childhood, so they naturally knew the method! It was simple and convenient to make: make a hole near the bottom of an empty oil drum, place a fuse there, add gunpowder, put an explosive charge at the front, light it, and then the thrust would propel the explosive charge out.

Because its accuracy was so difficult to control, a slight lapse in attention could easily result in friendly fire. People affectionately called it a "heartless cannon!"

However, its power is truly extraordinary! If it hits a target, it can often tear it to shreds!

……

Nagano Yoko was pulled from the mud by two soldiers, looking completely different! This guy has experienced at least eighty, if not a hundred, battles since he was sent to the South Station! But when have they ever seen such bizarre artillery fire? Using explosive charges as cannonballs, I just want to ask which genius came up with this idea? In short, awesome!

"Senior! Senior! Are you alright?" Kato Oka called out, patting Nagano Yoko's cheek.

"Hmm... I'm alright... I'm fine..." Nagano Yoko said, shaking his head.

Just now, in an attempt to urge the tanks to fire quickly, he got a little too close to the last tank. That heartless cannon fired, sending up a cloud of sand and gravel that buried him completely. If the soldiers hadn't dug him out in time, he would have been buried alive!

"Both tanks have been destroyed, and the battle is extremely intense..." Kato Oka quickly explained the current situation without even trying to comfort him.

"Baka!..." Nagano Yokoo shook his head again and raised his binoculars to observe carefully.

The stone dam wall that the enemy relied on for survival was already on the verge of collapse, but no matter how dangerous it was, it just wouldn't fall! Dozens of people lay on the top of the wall and kept firing, managing to keep hundreds of people pinned down on the beach and unable to advance an inch!

Now that the tanks are gone, if those two heartless bastards were to hit them a couple more times, these hundreds of men would be buried in the sand!

He put down the binoculars and remained silent for a moment, then raised them again to observe for a while, and seemed to have an idea!

"Order everyone to retreat fifty meters! Use the grenade launchers to destroy the remaining stone walls!" Nagano Yokoo ordered.

In that short time, he realized something was wrong. The enemy's crossbow bolts couldn't travel very far; they would be useless after retreating fifty meters! As long as they used the grenade launcher to blow up the stone dam wall, they could win the battle quickly!

"Yes, sir!" Kato Oka immediately snapped out of his daze and quickly ordered a retreat! He had long since had enough of being bullied by a bunch of lowly people!
