This killer star of the War of Resistance Against Japan was only 9 years old.

At 11:40 a.m., Bai Luo and the others arrived at the entrance of this unnamed village.

At this time of night, the dark clouds in the sky obscured the moonlight, and even the unmelted snow on the ground could not reflect much light. The biting north wind made everyone involuntarily shrink their necks.

Bai Luo had already raised his MXC and aimed through the scope at a soldier standing guard at the village entrance.

He would be killed by Bai Luo the moment he showed the slightest abnormality. There were 26 red dots on the detection radar in his mind. Two were at the village entrance, one was in a haystack 50 meters away from the village entrance, and the rest were in a house not far from the village entrance.

Tie Niu was still squinting, searching for the Japanese soldiers on guard duty.

Bai Luo slowly crawled to Tie Niu's side, patted Tie Niu's shoulder, and saw that he had turned his attention to him.

Bai Luo gestured to tell Tie Niu what she knew, but Tie Niu was still somewhat skeptical after receiving the information.

He didn't know how Bai Luo knew, but he knew there were people in that courtyard because there was a fire burning inside.

He couldn't see the remaining three sentries at all in the pitch black night.

Seeing that he hesitated, Bai Luo handed him the rifle and gestured for him to look through the scope.

Tie Niu didn't understand what Bai Luo meant, but he still raised Bai Luo's rifle and looked in the direction Bai Luo was pointing.

The next second, through the scope, Tie Niu saw two figures clearly visible in the green environment in front of him, and a foot was sticking out from behind a pile of grass next to them.

Tie Niu looked surprised and raised the gun several times. After Tie Niu confirmed it, Bai Luo took the rifle from him because he saw that Tie Niu seemed to want to use the gun against him.

After the gun was taken away, Tie Niu blushed a little. He did want to shamelessly refuse to admit it, but it seemed that Bai Luo had discovered him and the gun was taken back.

But now was not the time to think about that. He quickly focused his attention and, with two soldiers, stealthily made his way over. He tried not to alert the Japanese soldiers in the courtyard, planning to eliminate the sentries and then withdraw.

This place isn't far from the Japanese cavalry. Once a firefight breaks out, the intense gunfire will surely carry far into the night. If that alerts the main Japanese force, they'll truly have no chance of escape.

Bai Luo stared intently at the sentry at the door with his gun. They had to act simultaneously because the three Japanese soldiers were positioned in a pincer movement; if one of them was in trouble, the others would definitely see it.

Seeing that the three of them had gotten close, the pitch-black night provided them with excellent cover. When they reached the corner of the house near the village entrance, the Japanese soldiers at the door did not notice them.

Just then, three Japanese soldiers suddenly walked out of the courtyard. Startled, Tie Niu, who was about to climb over the low wall to go around, quickly shrank back.

The three Japanese soldiers who came out didn't notice anyone approaching and went to change shifts on their own. At this time, the Japanese soldier who was hiding behind the haystack also got up and walked towards the three Japanese soldiers who came to change shifts. After the handover was completed, the three Japanese soldiers who were relieved of their shifts immediately walked into the courtyard.

Bai Luo waited until the three Japanese soldiers entered the house before removing his gun from them.

The three Japanese soldiers who came out to relieve the guard did not return to their positions immediately. Instead, they gathered at the village entrance and started chatting, which made Tie Niu a little worried. If they attacked together, they would definitely be discovered.

Seeing that the situation had reached a stalemate, and knowing that the Japanese soldiers didn't know how often they would change shifts, the sooner the situation was resolved, the more time they would have to escape.

Thinking of this, Bai Luo raised his gun and fired three soft clanging shots in the quiet night, attracting the attention of the special operations soldiers who were lying prone nearby.

Before they could even figure out what was going on, Bai Luo had already gotten up and waved for them to follow.

Tie Niu and his two soldiers were also startled. He was ready to fight back when the three Japanese soldiers suddenly shuddered and fell to the ground. Tie Niu and the two soldiers rushed over and caught the Japanese soldiers who were about to fall. Only then did they realize that all three of them had a bloody hole in their heads.

It's obvious they've been sniped, but I didn't hear any gunshots?

While they were still wondering what was going on, they saw Bai Luo and his men sneaking over. Without thinking too much, they stripped the Japanese soldiers of their weapons and hid the bodies behind a haystack.

Then I reached out towards the dead tree; it was about 100 meters from the village entrance by the stream.

But it was too dark, and apart from Bai Luo, no one else could see the road or the location of the dead trees.

Bai Luo led the group to the dead tree, then drew his Glock 26 and turned on the rarely used gun light.

The sudden light startled everyone, but after calming down, they realized it was the light coming from the pistol in Bai Luo's hand.

Bai Luo raised his pistol and shone it at the withered tree. The tree was thick enough for a person to walk across easily, but in the pitch-black night, that would be practically impossible.

After illuminating the withered tree lying across the stream, Bai Luo gestured for Shunzi, who was standing next to him, to come over. Shunzi didn't hesitate and took the lead.

The others followed suit and passed through one by one. By the time Bai Luo was the last to pass, it had only taken less than 3 minutes.

After walking over, Bai Luo didn't leave immediately. Instead, he went to Sha Niu's side, opened her backpack, took out five grenades, and began to quickly set up booby traps.

He also placed a tripwire mine among the dead trees. After finishing, Bai Luo ignored the suspicious looks from the special operations soldiers and walked forward on his own.

There was also a grove of trees on this side of the river, but it was relatively sparse. Using the occasional glimpses of moonlight peeking through the clouds, the group moved quickly forward.

After marching for about an hour, the group finally emerged from the woods and saw the scenery before them. Tie Niu quickly determined the direction and led the group to continue forward.

They had only taken a few steps when they heard an explosion coming from the woods. Everyone knew that the Japanese had discovered the sentry that had been killed.

By this time, Bai Xiumei and the three female soldiers were already drenched in sweat, especially Xiaoyu, who was carrying a radio. When Tie Niu saw this, he took the radio from Xiaoyu's back, and the group continued running forward.

They all knew that they had less than six hours to escape, and if they were still on this plain at daybreak, they would definitely be caught up by the Japanese cavalry.

Around 6 a.m., everyone was exhausted and sat at the mouth of a valley. Bai Luo roughly estimated that they had run about 30 kilometers, and they were still more than 30 kilometers away from the pick-up point in Hangzhou.

Bai Luo can run to the destination in an hour, but others don't have his physical abilities.

Especially her aunt and the three female soldiers; Bellena looked much better than Lao Xu.

As Tie Niu watched the sky gradually brighten, he estimated that the Japanese cavalry would arrive at this location in a little over an hour.

Looking at the not-so-high valley entrance in front of them, which was less than 20 meters wide in the middle, it was a natural good place for an ambush.

Tie Niu realized that people couldn't outrun horses during the day, so someone had to stay behind to hold off the enemy. He said to Shunzi, "Shunzi, you take four people and escort Bellena and Xiaoyu to safety. The rest of you stay here with me and hold off the enemy."

Everyone knew how difficult it was for 15 men to hold off more than 400 Japanese cavalrymen. It was practically a matter of Tie Niu and his men risking their lives to buy time.

"Company Commander"

"Company Commander"

"Company commander..."

"Stop talking, just follow orders," Tie Niu interrupted Shunzi and Xiaoyu.
