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

When Katayama Riichi discovered that the puppet troops had followed him, he did not refuse them, but instead secretly mocked them.

"Hehehe, you, Long Fei, said that you Chinese have backbone, but you still got slapped in the face on the spot. Just wait and see, I will come back to take revenge soon."

As a result, to Katayama Riichiro's surprise, when they passed through a place called Mengjiajing...

Suddenly, bursts of gunfire erupted from both sides of the road.

The Japanese soldiers and their collaborators were unarmed, so a large number of them were killed in one fell swoop.

Upon hearing the gunshot, Riichiro Katayama immediately dropped to the ground.

"Nani, who is attacking us?"

Before he could observe carefully, loud bugle calls rang out all around him.

"Beep beep...da da da da...beep beep...da da da da..."

Judging from the bugle call, it was clearly the bugle call of the Eighth Route Army, with whom they had previously clashed.

Accompanied by the bugle call to charge, there was an overwhelming roar of battle cries.

"Charge! Kill!"

Countless Eighth Route Army soldiers rushed forward, guns in hand.

The Eighth Route Army soldiers quickly charged into the hands of the Japanese and their puppet troops.

Then, they used bayonets to stab the Japanese soldiers and puppet troops to death one by one.

"Kong Erlengzi, isn't this gift from my brother pretty good?"

"Hmm, that's generous. A whole regiment of Japanese soldiers and so many puppet troops, that's enough to give us a good meal."

At daybreak, Long Fei ordered Li Yunlong and Kong Jie to lead the Independent Regiment and the New First Regiment to Mengjiajing to set up an ambush.

Long Fei also told them that when the Japanese devils arrived, they must be wiped out without exception.

Therefore, as soon as the Japanese soldiers entered the ambush area, Li Yunlong immediately ordered them to open fire.

When he saw that the Japanese soldiers and their puppet troops were all unarmed, he thought to himself, "They're like meat on a chopping board."

So the order was given to sound the charge and use bayonets to finish off the enemy.

This also explains why the Eighth Route Army, which was always short of ammunition, developed a habit of thrift.

Even though Li Yunlong now has a strong and well-equipped army, his habit of thrift is hard to change in a short time.

Although the Japanese soldiers fought desperately, it was all in vain. So, before long, most of the Japanese soldiers and their puppet troops were wiped out.

Although the monk promised Long Fei that he would protect Li Yunlong's safety.

But seeing everyone killing Japanese soldiers so enthusiastically, his hands itched and he kept rubbing them.

Upon discovering this, Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Monk, if you want to kill the Japanese, go ahead. I don't need your protection."

The monk honestly replied, "Commander Li, but I promised Commander Long..."

"Stop babbling. The Japanese aren't armed. I'll be fine. Go kill a few more Japanese devils and have some fun."

The monk thought about it and agreed, then grinned and said, "Yes, Commander Li, I'll go then."

"Go ahead..."

Now, the monk, like a wild horse unleashed, charged into the midst of the Japanese soldiers, wielding a large knife, and began to hack and slash.

Within minutes, the monk, like a hungry wolf, entered the flock of sheep and slaughtered more than twenty Japanese soldiers and puppet troops.

He was chopping away with great enthusiasm when he suddenly noticed that the blade of his broadsword had chipped.

Enraged, he threw away his broadsword and drew the paratrooper knife that Long Fei had given him.

Before long, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were either slit in the throat or had their hearts pierced by his knife.

When Katayama Riichiro saw this scene, he was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of dog blood.

He never expected that surrendering would end up like this.

Katayama Riichiro had practiced martial arts since childhood, and his kung fu and swordsmanship were quite skilled.

So, while he was furious, he decided to fight back.

As a result, the two Eighth Route Army soldiers were no match for Katayama Riichiro, and he kicked each of them to the ground.

The monk was nearby and excitedly rushed over when he saw it.

Martial arts practitioners all enjoy dueling with masters.

The monk was so excited when he discovered that Katayama Riichiro was quite skilled, as if he had discovered a new continent.

Upon arriving in front of Riichiro Katayama, the monk confidently sheathed his paratrooper sword, preparing to fight him hand-to-hand.

Katayama Riichiro looked at the monk with disdain and shouted.

"You Chinese pig, I'm going to break your neck."

The monk couldn't understand Japanese, but judging from the other person's expression, he knew it wasn't anything nice.

"Damn it, he's about to die and he's still barking."

The two then began to exchange blows, but after two or three rounds, Riichiro Katayama realized he was wrong.

He discovered that the monk's kung fu was too strong, so strong that he couldn't defend himself at all.

It is said that a true master can be known as soon as they make a move.

Suddenly, the monk let out a cold laugh, grabbed Katayama Riichiro's right hand, and twisted it forcefully.

With a "crack," Riichiro Katayama let out a scream of pain as his right arm was twisted off in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the monk sidestepped and came behind Katayama Riichiro, raising his right leg and bending his knee to press against the back of his neck.

Then grab his head with both hands and press it back forcefully.

With another "crack," Katayama Riichiro's cervical spine snapped backward, and before he could even utter a sound, he was dead.

Li Yunlong witnessed the entire battle between the two and immediately began to praise them loudly.

"Monk, it seems you didn't waste your time at Shaolin Temple; your kung fu is quite good."

"Hehe, my master said I was a good candidate for martial arts back then."

Li Yunlong actually took a liking to the monk immediately and blurted out his feelings.

“I’ll go tell my brother, how about you come and be my bodyguard?”

Unexpectedly, the monk shook his head like a rattle drum.

“Commander Li, my life was saved by Commander Long, and I must stay by his side to repay his kindness.”

Although Li Yunlong was disappointed, he still appreciated the monk's grateful attitude.

So he walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Good lad, you know how to repay kindness. Alright, then I won't force you."

By this time, all three thousand Japanese soldiers and two thousand puppet troops had been wiped out. The puppet troops, in particular, were filled with remorse before they died.

If they had known they would die, they would have definitely chosen to stay and undergo labor reform.

Unfortunately, there's no going back in life; once the chance to live is missed, it's gone forever.

Kong Jie said to Li Yunlong with a regretful tone.

"Old Li, although we've wiped out so many Japanese soldiers, we haven't captured a single weapon."

Li Yunlong replied nonchalantly, "Hey Kong Erlengzi, my brother gave us this great gift, aren't you satisfied?"

"Besides, my brother is very generous. When has he ever treated his older brother unfairly? Stop talking nonsense, kid. You'll definitely get your share of the benefits."

After being lectured by Li Yunlong, Kong Jie couldn't get angry. After all, he had enjoyed the battle today and had vented all his grievances and frustrations.

Li Yunlong then gave another loud command.

"Alright, everyone, check if there's anything we can take from the Japanese soldiers. Quickly clean up the battlefield, and we need to get to Yangquan immediately after that."

After the Japanese soldiers and puppet troops left, Long Fei ordered the people in the city not to go home for the time being, and then ordered Chen Yiding and Zhu Ci to send troops into the city.

They were instructed to search thoroughly and find Zhu Youcai at all costs.

In less than an hour, Zhu Youcai and his cronies were all captured and brought before Long Fei.
