The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters

Wei Dayong immediately replied, "The coal mine we were working on collapsed yesterday, so the Japanese didn't let us go today."

"We were just taking a break when we suddenly heard a burst of gunfire. So we took the opportunity to riot, killed more than a dozen Japanese guards, seized their guns, and broke out of the prisoner-of-war camp."

"When the other Japanese soldiers in the POW camp saw that things were not going well, they hurriedly fled. We chased after them all the way. I killed the Japanese battalion commander, and then we met you."

Xie Qiang patted Wei Dayong on the shoulder: "Alright, you guys take a rest first. Our legion commander will definitely want to see you later."

Upon hearing this, Wei Dayong immediately grinned.

"Really? I've heard so much about the Dragon Flame Legion's reputation. Will your Legion Commander really see me?"

Xie Qiang chuckled: "Of course he will see you."

Not long after, the soldiers searching the city reported that the entire city of Kuribachi had been thoroughly searched and no Japanese soldiers had escaped.

Xie Qiang then led a few soldiers out of the city to report to Long Fei.

Upon seeing Long Fei, Xie Qiang spoke impatiently.

"Reporting to the corps commander, the Japanese soldiers in the city have been wiped out. I also encountered someone else. Guess who it is?"

Long Fei rolled his eyes at Xie Qiang and said irritably.

"Guess, guess my foot, just tell me..."

Xie Qiang said with a playful smile, "Your favorite character used to be the monk Wei Dayong from 'Bright Sword'."

"Oh...really?"

"Of course it's true, how could I dare to lie to you? Do you want to meet the real person?" Xie Qiang nodded with a smile.

"We absolutely have to see him. Quick, lead the way."

Before long, Xie Qiang brought Long Fei to Wei Dayong, and told him about the ordeal of Wei Dayong and his group of Nationalist soldiers on the way.

"Monk, this is our legion commander, Long Fei."

"Commander, that is Monk Wei."

After carefully examining them, Long Fei asked the monk and the group of Nationalist soldiers.

"Monk, Commander Xie has already told me what happened to you. Do you want revenge?"

Wei Dayong was a little confused: "Commander Long, we have already killed all the Japanese soldiers guarding the POW camp, including the Japanese battalion commander. Isn't that revenge?"

Long Fei shook his head fiercely and said, "This is far from enough. We must repay tenfold, an eye for an eye."

Wei Dayong really liked Long Fei's ruthlessness.

"Commander of the Dragon Legion, tell us how to retaliate in kind, tenfold, and we'll listen to you."

Other Nationalist soldiers hurriedly echoed this sentiment.

“That’s right, Commander Dragon Legion, we’ll listen to you.”

Long Fei immediately ordered Xie Qiang, "Go and bring all the captured Japanese soldiers outside the city here. Also, notify the Third Regiment Commander to bring all the prisoners to Licheng immediately."

Within ten minutes, the more than one hundred captured Japanese soldiers were brought before Long Fei by the soldiers.

At this moment, Commander Qin and Political Commissar Lai also arrived with the Eighth Route Army.

Political Commissar Lai whispered to Commander Qin, "Old Qin, is Commander Long going to kill prisoners again?"

Commander Qin waved his hand: "Political Commissar, they fought the battle and captured the prisoners. We were just making a small show of support."

"Let the Dragon Legion Commander do whatever he wants. We shouldn't interfere, and we shouldn't say anything more."

Political Commissar Lai knew that Commander Qin was right, and moreover, he understood that even if they wanted to stop it, they couldn't.

Long Fei coldly looked at the group of Japanese prisoners and found that at least half of them were wounded.

“Monk, brothers of the National Army, the Japanese have captured you, killed the wounded, and tortured you, forcing you to work in the coal mines and giving you only one meal a day.”

"What's even more appalling is that they actually buried alive those who were exhausted or sick."

"Our Dragon Flame Legion has a rule when fighting the Japanese: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

"Now I'm giving you a chance to get revenge, just like the Japanese devils treated your brothers before. Kill all these wounded Japanese prisoners."

As soon as Long Fei finished speaking, the hatred and anger that had been building up in the hearts of these KMT prisoners of war for so long were ignited.

The monk was the first to remove the bayonet from the captured Japanese Type 38 rifle and strode over to the wounded Japanese soldier.

The other Nationalist soldiers also raised their guns, their bayonets gleaming, and marched towards the Japanese soldiers.

Seeing the fierce and menacing appearance of these Nationalist soldiers, the wounded Japanese soldiers knew that disaster was imminent and their deaths were imminent.

They were so frightened that their legs trembled violently, and many of them even wet themselves.

The Japanese soldiers kept pleading and shouting.

“We have surrendered, we are prisoners, we are wounded, you cannot kill us…”

"Please, don't kill us... We were wrong, we deserve to die, please don't kill us..."

When many Japanese soldiers saw that their pleas went unanswered, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Although the Nationalist soldiers couldn't understand what the Japanese soldiers were saying, they could guess from their behavior.

Long Fei spoke to the Japanese soldier in Japanese, with an extremely resolute tone.

“Your pleas are useless. You are nothing but the gunfire of militarism. Didn’t you all swear to be loyal to the Heavenly Locust?”

"From the moment you put on your uniforms, took up your weapons, and stepped onto the territory of my Chinese nation, you were destined to become cold corpses."

Long Fei's words were cold and terrifying, like the voice of hell, causing these Japanese soldiers to feel their souls shatter.

The monk gripped his bayonet and plunged it into the chest of a wounded Japanese soldier with a "thud," then vigorously twisted it.

"You little devils, our platoon leader was killed by you stabbing him in the heart with your bayonets. Now I'll let you taste it too."

Other Nationalist soldiers followed suit, forcefully plunging their bayonets into the chests of the wounded Japanese soldiers in front of them.

The only sounds at the scene were the wails of the Japanese soldiers and the "thud" of bayonets piercing flesh.

Seventy or eighty wounded Japanese prisoners were all stabbed to death with bayonets in less than a minute.

The monk killed five people, and his hands, face, and bayonet were splattered with the blood of the Japanese soldiers.

He wiped his face, threw his head back and laughed wildly, "That was great, fucking great! Brothers, did you see that from heaven? We've avenged you today, you can rest in peace now."

Those Japanese prisoners of war who were standing at the back and were not wounded witnessed this bloody and cruel scene.

Fearing they would also be stabbed to death, they involuntarily retreated.

Upon seeing this, the soldiers standing next to them immediately began punching and kicking them, and even smashing them with the butts of their rifles.

"Who gave you permission to move around? You all better behave yourselves, or I'll stab you all."

Although the Japanese soldiers were in excruciating pain from the beating, they dared not utter a sound or move again.

Commander Qin felt extremely relieved upon seeing this scene and couldn't help but sigh.

"This Long Fei is decisive and ruthless, showing no mercy to the Japanese. I'm afraid these Nationalist soldiers will follow him wholeheartedly from now on."

Political Commissar Lai echoed, "Yes, the corps commander is like a tiger; even the worst subordinates are like wolves. The Japanese devils in Shanxi won't have an easy time from now on."
