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

However, the mountain man had a clever plan. Since it was impossible to go on the sea, he would go underwater.

Moreover, the Ōga is quite suitable as an experimental target.

With that thought in mind, Bai Luo put on his oxygen mask and jumped directly from the motorboat into the sea.

After diving into the sea, Bai Luo redeemed an underwater propulsion device from the shop.

Then they headed towards the direction of the Ōga.

However, the speed underwater is significantly slower than that on the surface.

Even with the help of underwater propulsion, it took Bai Luo nearly 20 minutes to cover the almost 3-kilometer distance.

However, it is safe.

When Bai Luo finally arrived at the bottom of the Dahe ship, before he could even be happy, he exchanged an underwater welding gun from the system shop.

We plan to weld a few anchor points onto the bottom of the Ōga to secure the precious vessel to the bare hull.

While Bai Luo was happily carrying out underwater welding operations.

The fighting at the port of Wai Harbour is also getting increasingly intense.

It turns out that during the time Bai Luo jumped into the sea, the Xiong Kingdom soldiers were forced to accept two bayonet fighting invitationals from the Japanese soldiers, and their physical strength was clearly not up to par.

Moreover, after two rounds of bayonet fighting, fewer than 300 soldiers remained alive on the Xiong Kingdom's position.

But the Japanese soldiers were different; they used a strategy of attrition warfare.

The Japanese soldiers, in the second round of bayonet fighting, received orders to retreat.

Two Japanese companies were already assembling on the Japanese soldiers' positions below, preparing for their third charge.

At this moment, the sea in the distance was already showing signs of dawn.

On the Xiong Kingdom's position, a Xiong Kingdom captain who was lying on the ground panting heavily sat up with difficulty after feeling the light in front of him and squinted at the direction where the sun was rising.

If Bai Luo were here, he would definitely recognize that the Xiong Kingdom captain, whose body was covered in blood and mud, was none other than Ivan, Bellena's classmate.

At this moment, Ivan squinted as he looked at the slowly rising sun in the distance.

The tension caused by the fierce battle gradually subsided.

Seemingly remembering something, Ivan pulled a photograph out of the pocket of his dirty military uniform.

The people in the photo are Bellena and Ivan, a picture taken at school.

Looking at Bellena's radiant smile in the photo, Ivan couldn't help but smile as well.

At the same time, Ivan's thumb was constantly stroking Bellena in the photograph.

He seemed to be recalling something, but Ivan was quickly brought back to his senses by the shouts of the Japanese soldiers below the hill.

When Ivan turned to look down, he realized that the Japanese soldiers were issuing their third challenge for bayonet fighting.

Upon seeing this, Ivan couldn't help but give a wry smile, his gaze returning to the photo in his palm.

He murmured.

"Belena, I may not be able to see the day of peace with you. I hope you won't blame me."

As soon as those words, which could only be heard by Ivan, fell, the smile on his face vanished instantly.

After putting the photos away, Ivan held a pistol in one hand and an entrenching tool in the other.

After warning his comrades that the Japanese were coming up, he...

Ivan lay prone beside the trench, his eyes fixed on the charging Japanese soldiers below.

150 m.

100 m.

The surviving soldiers of the Bear Kingdom began to fire.

80 m.

The remaining 300-odd Xiong Kingdom soldiers threw down a large number of grenades.

The bombing killed or wounded nearly 100 Japanese soldiers.

But this did not deter the Japanese soldiers who were launching an attack.

50 m.

Ivan took the PPSh submachine gun from a bear soldier who had just been killed.

30 m.

Ivan had already emptied the 50-round drum of the PPSh in his hand.

10 m.

Ivan's pistol magazine was empty, and there was no time to reload.

Ivan was forced to throw his empty pistol at the Japanese soldier who was less than 10 meters away.

He smashed the helmet off one of the leading Japanese soldiers on the spot.

5 m.

After throwing away his empty pistol, Ivan grabbed an entrenching tool and charged out of the trench with the remaining 300 or so Xiong Kingdom soldiers.

Thus, the Japanese successfully invited them to a third round of bayonet fighting.

However, as soon as the two sides made contact, the Xiong Kingdom immediately fell into a disadvantageous position.

Their stamina had already been completely exhausted in the previous two rounds of bayonet fighting.

Even though they were physically much smaller than the Japanese soldiers, it couldn't make up for the difference in their physical strength.

Meanwhile, Ivan was also panting heavily on the chaotic battlefield.

The shovel head in his hand had flown away somewhere.

All that was left in his hand was a shovel handle less than 30 centimeters long.

However, three Japanese soldiers also died under his shovel.

Two more Japanese soldiers charged at him with bayonets raised.

Upon seeing this, Ivan took two steps back, then forcefully swung the wooden stick in his hand at the face of one of the Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese soldier couldn't dodge in time and was hit squarely by the flying shovel handle, which cut open a gash about 3 centimeters long on his forehead. Immediately, crimson blood flowed from the wound on the Japanese soldier's forehead.

At the same time, the Japanese soldier subconsciously stopped attacking due to the sharp pain in his forehead.

However, the other Japanese soldier did not stop attacking like his comrades.

On the contrary, because of his teammate's injury, he moved even faster in his attack.

Ivan, who had thrown the wooden stick in his hand, was now unarmed.

But he was not afraid; he had seen far too much death in the six months he had fought against the Japanese soldiers.

His only thought right now was to kill this little Japanese devil.

So, empty-handed, he did not retreat to avoid the Japanese soldiers' attack.

Instead, they charged towards the enemy at an accelerated pace, just like the Japanese soldiers.

But at this moment his body had reached its limit, and before he could run two steps, Ivan was tripped by the corpse of a Japanese soldier beneath him.

He staggered and fell to the ground.

This sudden turn of events also startled the Japanese soldiers on the other side for a moment.

But then a cruel smile appeared on his lips as he gripped the Type 38 rifle tightly in his hands.

He stabbed Ivan in the back as Ivan was about to get up again.

At that moment, Ivan also noticed the movements of the Japanese soldier.

But he was just too tired.

Now he can't even do a simple roll to dodge.

As the Japanese soldiers drew ever closer, Ivan couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

"Belena, it seems I really have to break the contract."
