Kameda's trembling hand had been noticed by Inoue, who was behind him.
Sergeant Inoue was a veteran who had truly gone through the baptism of war. He had participated in the Nanjing Massacre.
According to his achievements, he should have entered the military academy to further his studies. After completing his studies, he would at least be a squadron leader.
However, due to his serious violation of discipline, his admission qualification was revoked. Up until now, he was still in the position of sergeant.
Compared to Kameda, Inoue appeared very calm.
"Kameta-kun, you look a little nervous.”
The trees on the mountain rustled in the cold wind. He wanted to rely on cigarettes to keep warm, but after thinking about it, he was worried that the fire would attract the sniper's attention, so he gave up.
He walked ahead calmly and turned around to say to Kamita,""The soldiers of the Great Japan Empire are fearless.”
"You must not be afraid. If you are afraid, you will lose the courage to resist before you see the other party. On the battlefield, losing courage is a very terrifying thing.”
Kameda lowered his head and didn't say anything, but his ears pricked up.
Inoue did not care about Kameda's reaction and continued,""Kameta-kun, your luck is much better than mine. Ever since you joined the army, you've been following Captain Yoshino. You've also fought in the Chinese battlefield, and the situation has always been optimistic.”
Back then, when the regiment I was in was transferred to another battlefield, I was still a recruit who had joined the army for less than two months. I hadn't even completed the three months of recruit training, and I ended up on the battlefield.
Kameda stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Inoue with a puzzled expression, waiting for him to continue.
Inoue laughed out loud and patted him on the shoulder."When I first arrived on the battlefield, guess what happened? I looked like I was in a daze. I couldn't even control my limbs. I looked nervously at the guns and bullets flying everywhere. There were a few times when the bullets flew past my scalp.”
Guitian almost laughed out loud. Then, his body relaxed and his expression returned to normal.
Inoue continued," Later on, we received a mission. We were responsible for guarding a place, and we happened to bump into the Chinese army. Because it was night and we didn't know the terrain, the Chinese army sneaked up on us.”
" By the time we noticed it, the Chinese army had already appeared in front of us.
I was just as nervous as you are now. We couldn't figure out how they had arrived in front of us. It was as if they had descended from the sky, causing us to panic.
The sudden appearance of the Chinese army would often wake me up from my sleep for a long time. Every time I woke up, I would feel extremely terrified, causing me to break out in cold sweat.
"In the end, they fought with us. The entire camp was a melee. A burly Chinese soldier ran towards me with a machete in his hand. I was very scared at that time. Plus, the other party was very tall. When he was 5 or 6 meters away from me, I fired. However, due to my nervousness, the bullet missed. Kameta-kun, you definitely can't imagine that I couldn't hit the Chinese soldier at such a close distance.”
"You missed at such a close distance?" asked Guitian curiously.”
"It's the truth even if you don't believe me." Inoue said sadly," Indeed, I really didn't hit that Chinese soldier. When he saw that my bullet didn't hit him, the Chinese soldier immediately came in front of me and cut my arm with his big knife. There are still scars on my arm.”
As he spoke, Inoue revealed his injured arm, and a crooked scar instantly appeared on it.
Kameda walked up to take a look and was shocked. He felt that Inoue must have been in great pain. The scar was 50 centimeters long and seemed to have been stitched up more than a hundred times, so the scar had not disappeared until now.
After Kameda looked at the scar, Inoue continued,""If his broadsword had been a little stronger, I might have lost my head. Perhaps I would have gone to see the Emperor long ago and wouldn't be standing here chatting with you.”
"Inoue Kun, thank you very much for reassuring me.”Kameda smiled at Inoue and continued,""But this time, our opponent is different. He seems to be a ghost.”
"Kameta-kun, it's the same thing. They're all Chinese.”
Inoue smiled and stopped him, then said,""Do you know why I didn't die? When that soldier slashed at my arm with his saber, his eyes revealed a beast-like light. I knew that I was definitely going to die this time.”
However, at that moment, I realized that I wasn't afraid of death anymore. It was as if the Emperor of Japan was encouraging me. My fighting strength suddenly returned. The pain in my arm didn't collapse my willpower. Instead, it became my driving force.
"That Chinese soldier has already made me less afraid. I endured the pain in my arm and grabbed his neck with my hand. Then, I aimed the gun at his stomach with my injured left arm and pulled the trigger.”
"That time left a very deep impression on me. I still remember it vividly. I fired all the bullets in the chamber and fired five shots in a row. All of them hit his stomach. In the end, he fell to the ground like a dead pig.”
At this point, Inoue was very depressed. He took two deep breaths to calm himself down, and his eyes were filled with encouragement and support.
"Ever since that time, I knew that as long as you have a strong will and don't be afraid of him, you will be invincible no matter what.”
Inoue's heartfelt words made Kameda's blood boil. From now on, Kameda had already thrown his fear to the back of his mind. His fighting spirit was extremely high, and his entire body was filled with the passion to fight.
He looked at Inoue, then put the. 38 rifle on his back, stood at attention, and said,""Inoue Kun, thank you for your encouragement. I know what to do in the future.”
Inoue smiled gratefully and patted him, ready to comfort him again.
Suddenly, the smile on Inoue's face froze.
Seeing Inoue's expression, Kameda immediately asked,""What happened, Inoue-kun?”
Inoue made a hand gesture to Kameda to stop him from speaking.
Kameda's gaze paused for a moment, then he looked at his hands.
Then, Inoue used his finger to make a tactical sign language to Kameda. From the meaning of the sign language, it seemed that there was something moving in the 9:00 direction behind him. It was very likely that it was the ghost.
Inoue told Kameda not to speak. Then, he pretended to be indifferent and quietly used hand language to inform his companions who were following behind him. He then asked his companions to surround his hiding spot from both sides.
The reason why the soldiers were not allowed to shoot was because before the operation, Captain Yoshino had already given them an order to capture as many people as possible alive. (Flower evaluation)
