Li Yuxian couldn't help but laugh.""You don't have to be so humble. Most of the Japanese were killed by you! How about this, we each take half of the seized supplies!”
"Yes, yes, Young Miss is right. This is the fairest way!”
Both sides split the supplies equally and escorted them away. Before leaving, Guild Leader Cheng walked over with a smile and patted Xuan Zuo's shoulder.""Thank you, Brother Xuan. Let's have a good cooperation.”
When Xuan Zuo saw his smug look, he felt as if he had eaten a fly in his heart and was extremely unhappy!
……
The continuous harassment of the Eighth Route Army and Xuan Zuo made the Japanese army suffer serious losses. They were very annoyed. Finally, the Japanese army headquarters made a decision to eliminate the Eighth Route Army and Xuan Zuo in order to eliminate future troubles!
After the 8th Route Army received the news, they quickly sent someone to inform Xuan Zuo. However, Xuan Zuo did not take it to heart.
After the clean-up began, the Eighth Route Army retreated from the camp and scattered among the people, making it impossible for the Japanese army to find an opponent. Xuan Zuo, however, did not hide and remained in his stronghold, becoming a living target for the Japanese army.
Xuan Zuo originally thought that with the steep terrain of the mountain stronghold, the Japanese would not be able to do anything to him. At most, they would be in a stalemate for a while. However, he did not expect the Japanese army to spend a lot of money to destroy him. Not only did they mobilize heavy artillery troops, but they also mobilized a large number of aircraft to help. Under the bombardment, his stronghold was reduced to ruins, with countless casualties.
After that, the Japanese troops began to attack the mountain. The people under Xuan Zuo had not received formal military training. Robbery was his strong suit, but fighting against the elite Japanese troops was not enough.
Although the Yushan bandits had resisted the Japanese army's charge several times, they had already suffered heavy losses and were completely routed. Xuan Zuo saw that the situation was hopeless and hurriedly led the remaining people to break out and escape.
However, the path down the mountain was already heavily blocked by the Japanese. Xuan Zuo led his men to rush a few times in a row, but they could not rush through. Instead, they lost a lot of men. At the critical moment, the Eighth Route Army suddenly rushed over and launched a sneak attack on the devil from the back. Xuan Zuo seized this favorable opportunity and tried his best to break through again. He was finally exposed. The Eighth Route Army saw that he could not withstand the powerful firepower of the Japanese and quickly began to retreat. Both sides fled in two directions.
There were very few people left under Xuan Zuo, and they were severely weakened. The devil no longer took him to heart and concentrated his forces to chase after the Eighth Route Army, only sending a squadron to continue chasing him.
There were three to four hundred people who successfully broke out of the encirclement with Xuan Zuo, which was still much more than the number of devils chasing after them. Xuan Zuo had been beaten up by them until he suffered heavy casualties. He was already holding back his anger. Seeing that they were chasing after him relentlessly, he did not give up. In a fit of anger, he brought his subordinates to stop and turned around to fight with them.
The squadron leader of the Japanese army was Senior Captain Toshida. Although his military rank was not high, he had a lot of prestige in the Japanese army. He was a famous samurai and had studied under a famous Japanese Kendo master. His martial arts were extremely strong! He liked to charge in battle, fighting in close combat with his enemies, and fighting face to face with swords. He didn't care about these bandits, Xuan Zuo. He led his 180 men and charged forward.
Xuan Zuo's eyes were also red from killing. He didn't care about anything else and led his people to charge forward like crazy. Both sides immediately entangled and fought. Xuan waved a large knife in his left hand and cut down several people in a few moves. Tengtian Junyi did the same. He used his military knife to cut down several bandits under Xuan's left hand.
The two of them saw each other's bravery from afar and subconsciously approached each other. In a short while, they collided. Without saying anything, Genza raised his sword and slashed at Fujita. Teng Tian saw this move and blocked with his saber. The two weapons collided with a crisp sound, and sparks flew everywhere!
The two of them each took a few steps back. Xuan Zuo's palm was numb from the shock. He was shocked. He did not expect this Japanese officer to have such strength to block his knife.
Teng Tian was forced to take a few steps back by the saber's momentum. He was also shocked. He did not expect that the ordinary-looking bandit actually had such divine power. He suddenly became excited, his eyes shining like a lion that had found its prey!
After Xuanzuo's first slash, Fujita stepped forward and slashed again. This time, Fujita did not parry and slashed at Xuanzuo. However, he had attacked first, so Xuanzuo had no choice but to withdraw his saber to dodge. He was shocked.
After Teng Tian seized the initiative, he continued to attack, one blade after another, not giving Xuan Zuo a chance to catch his breath. Xuan Zuo suffered the disadvantage of having a heavy weapon and was not as agile as Fujita's military saber. Thus, he could not seize the opportunity to counterattack and could only dodge and parry, falling into a passive state.
Although Teng Tian had the initiative, he could do nothing to Xuan Zuo. He was unable to break through Xuan Zuo's tight defense. The two of them were in a stalemate for a moment, and it was difficult to determine the victor. The Japanese army had the advantage of being well-trained and skilled in fighting, while Genza's side had the advantage in numbers. In addition, there were also a few ruthless characters like Qin Yong. The strength of the two armies was evenly matched, and it was difficult to tell the difference for a moment!
After Xuanzuo and Tengtian fought for 20 to 30 rounds, two Japanese soldiers suddenly rushed out, intending to help Tengtian, but Tengtian quickly scolded them,"Baka!" He stopped her. A few of Xuan Zuo's subordinates who were close to him wanted to come over and help, but Xuan Zuo also called out,"This is my own business. I don't need your help!”It was stopped!
The two of them continued to fight one-on-one. After sixty to seventy rounds, Teng Tian suddenly took the risk to win. Ignoring the fact that his door was wide open, he slashed at Xuan Zuo with all his strength. This knife was fast and ruthless. Although Xuan Zuo narrowly avoided it, the knife cut open his chest and exposed his flesh. Since he had learned kung fu, he had never suffered such a loss in a one-on-one fight. He could not help but be very angry. Just as he was about to raise his knife and prepare to regain his face, he suddenly saw the Japanese reinforcements in the distance. He quickly called his men to retreat. Before he left, he glared at Teng Tian, very unconvinced.
Teng Tian did not chase after him this time. He ordered the troops to stop chasing and let him escape safely. Tengtian's adjutant asked him curiously,""Why didn't you pursue?"
Teng Tian replied," I don't want to win with numbers. That Chinese man is a rare opponent. I must defeat him personally!"”
Most of the Japanese soldiers advocated the spirit of Bushido and respected the brave. After the adjutant heard this, he immediately saluted and said respectfully to Fujita,"Yes, sir!"
This battle caused Xuan Zuo to lose more than half of his men, leaving only a hundred people. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Japanese army, he had to hide in the mountains with his people and play hide-and-seek with them.
