Lu Yao, who had been in a meditative state, was startled by the sound of footsteps and immediately went into battle mode.

Take off your gloves and gently rub your numb hands.

Then he put on his woolen gloves and picked up the gun.

While performing these actions, his eyes never left the tree.

It was already late at night.

A crescent moon rises high in the sky.

The pale moonlight illuminated the white snow, and several dark figures could be seen slowly approaching from under the trees.

They whispered, as if calling out the names of their companions.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed.

He rushed over to a person who had been killed in the explosion.

It's a boy's voice.

Lu Yao understood; he was calling for his father.

Then more people came over.

They turned over the corpses one by one.

Lu Yao counted them one by one; there were five people in total.

Look into the distance, listen carefully, and make sure there's no one else there.

He adjusted his posture and loosened his joints.

Pick up the Mauser pistol.

In close-quarters combat against multiple opponents, short-range weapons offer greater flexibility.

He quietly turned the gun around.

After calculating everything, he pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang bang"

They specifically target those who have guns.

One shot at a time, take them down first, then come back and fire another round, two shots at each person to prevent them from dying.

The four people fell to the ground immediately.

The first two men with guns were shot dead before they could even react.

Although the two of them scrambled and crawled, they still couldn't dodge Lu Yao's bullets.

The last person was so frightened that he lay prone in the grass, too scared to move.

Lu Yao had already climbed down from the tree.

The other party shouted loudly in Japanese.

Lu Yao asked a question:

"Can you speak Chinese? If you can't, I'll throw a grenade!"

"I can!"

Lu Yao specifically reserved a spot for an older person, thinking that the person would have a higher chance of speaking Mandarin.

As expected, the other party would say something.

Lu Yao shouted again, "Drop your gun and come out here, or I'll kill you!"

"I don't have a gun!"

Lu Yao couldn't help but sneer.

This guy actually tried to trick me into going there.

I looked closely from the tree just now.

He not only carried a gun, but also a pistol.

Lu Yao grabbed a corpse, propped it up against a tree, and then shouted:

"Then come out here, or I'll throw a grenade at you!"

This person witnessed the person on the ground being killed by a grenade, and was unsure whether Lu Yao had a grenade in hand.

If you get up and run now, you'll definitely become a sitting duck.

Seeing the dark shadows moving by the tree, as if they were talking to him, he slowly drew his pistol into his hand.

Quietly walked out:

"Okay, I'm out, don't shoot..."

Lu Yao replied, "Okay, I won't shoot. Put your hands up and slowly walk over..."

"Bang bang"

Before Lu Yao could finish speaking, the other side fired a shot.

The bullet hit the corpse that Lu Yao was supporting, and he felt a jolt in his arm.

Lu Yao screamed and pushed the corpse out.

Upon seeing the body fall to the ground, the enemy rushed forward and unleashed a barrage of shots at it.

The body stopped moving.

He walked over and reached out to turn the face-down corpse over.

I jumped in fright.

This is one of my accomplices.

But then he was shot hard in the back of the head.

The kid was dizzy, and vaguely felt a warm sensation on his face.

I opened my eyes and saw a young man urinating on my face.

Lu Yao had been holding in his pee for quite some time.

I woke the guy up by urinating on him.

Then shine a flashlight on his face:

"I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer me. If you tell a lie, I'll cut off a finger!"

Only then did the guy realize that Lu Yao had tied him to a small tree with a dead man's belt.

With his hands behind his back, he stood up.

"Who exactly are you? Are you part of the Chinese army?"

Moth

He got kicked in the face by Lu Yao:

"Listen carefully, I'm asking you, not the other way around!"

"Now, tell me, how many of you are there!"

Although this guy looks old due to his wrinkled face, he's in good health and should be in his fifties at most.

Lu Yao's kick broke his nose.

"We have several thousand people, they'll be coming to find me soon..."

Lu Yao said nothing.

Go straight to the back and cut off two of his fingers with a dagger.

This guy is quite tough; he didn't utter a sound.

Lu Yao was looking at him, and he actually had a cold smile on his face.

Lu Yao laughed too: "Looks like you're stubborn. Fine, I'll play along. Go ahead and stick your tongue out! How many of you are there?"

"One hundred thousand people!"

Lu Yao then cut off a few more of his fingers.

The guy was trembling all over from the pain, but he still didn't utter a sound.

Lu Yao used a knife to cut open his cotton trousers.

"If you don't talk, I'll castrate you and make you unable to be a man!"

He closed his eyes and remained silent.

Cut open his cotton-padded coat.

Exposing chest:

"I'll rip your heart out and take your life!"

The cold blade scraped across his skin.

This guy was terrified, but he just wouldn't open his eyes, looking like he was waiting to die.

Lu Yao suddenly laughed: "Alright, seeing that you're a tough guy, I won't torture you anymore. I'll take you back for interrogation."

As she spoke, she untied him from the sapling.

Hands tied in front.

Go back and collect the magazines and guns from each of the corpses.

Seizing the opportunity, the man leaped forward and crashed into Lu Yao.

Lu Yao tumbled and fell into a snow pit.

"Damn it, I'll kill you!"

Lu Yao climbed out of the snow pit, but the guy had already run twenty meters away.

Lu Yao fired several shots.

This person was running for their life, not stopping at all, running desperately.

Lu Yao watched him disappear into the woods and smiled:

"Go home, I'm counting on you to lead the way!"

Lu Yao had previously interrogated the sniper who was wearing a tiger skin.

I could tell these guys were tough; they couldn't be easily subdued by ordinary criminal law.

The interrogation yielded no results, and time could not be wasted; the only option left was to risk resorting to the next tactic.

Pretend to reveal a weakness so he can escape.

With his fingers severed, he could no longer fire a gun. His clothes were torn open, letting in a bone-chilling cold wind. If he were to run, given his severe injuries, he would inevitably return to his lair first.

Lu Yao followed him by tracking him.

With bloodstains and footprints on the ground, he couldn't have escaped.

They chased it out of the woods, and on the snow-covered ground, a small black dot was running towards the northwest mountain peaks.

Lu Yao followed behind at a leisurely pace.

We can't lose him, but we also can't let him find us.

By this time, dawn was approaching.

……

Mei Ping woke up and lay on a wooden couch.

Beside the bed was a charcoal brazier, emitting a scorching heat that felt like it was roasting your face.

This is a small wooden cabin.

An old woman in tattered clothes was bending over, adding snow to a porcelain jar hanging on a charcoal fire.

It looks like they're using snow to melt water.

Mei Ping looked at herself, still covered by a tattered quilt, and asked:

"Auntie, where is this? Is it a village?"

The old woman looked up at Mei Ping, her mouth revealing only a few teeth:

"Girl, this is hell, not a village!"

"what?"

Mei Ping was startled and tried to get up.

However, the wound on my hip is extremely painful.

The old woman held her down:

"Stop struggling. You can only live if you obey them. Luckily you're a woman, otherwise Major Sakata would have dragged you away to be tortured."

Just then, a scream came from next door.

It sounds like Liu Dameng's voice:

"Stop hitting me! I can't take it anymore! I'll talk! I'll answer whatever you ask!"

Then came Zhao Jianguo's cursing:

"Spineless coward, so what if you die? What's there to be afraid of!"

Then, the sound of whips and wooden sticks hitting people could be heard.

Mei Ping felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

Realizing he had stumbled upon a bandit's den by sheer luck!
