Deep winter of 1938!
The Japanese were pressing on the central, southwest, and northwest regions of Jinxi.
They continuously swept through the mountains and villages!
The 8 armies, the Jinsui Army, and the Central Army, who were already at a disadvantage, were forced to retreat.
Under the suppression of the powerful firepower of the Japanese, the Fire Country's regular army was basically defeated in every battle!
The War of Resistance against Japan had reached its most difficult period!
······
Ta, ta, ta!
Ta, ta, ta!
Ta, ta, ta!
"Baka Yalu!"
"Go, kill this bunch of bumpkins!”
Somewhere in northwest Shanxi, outside a valley.
There was a small group of Japanese soldiers shooting wildly at the valley.
Amid the machine gun fire, a few weak and feeble screams would occasionally come from the valley.
"Major Ono, this time, you're going to make a contribution again!”
A puppet soldier bowed and patted his horse.
"According to our investigation, among the students that were rescued by this group of people, one of them is the person in charge of the Shanghai Underground Station. As long as you capture him, you will have made a great contribution!”
" The team protecting these students is less than 100 people. There are only a few dozen guns in total, and some of them are even armed with cold weapons. They are definitely no match for you, Ono!”
"So, if we exterminate this team, Captain Ono can claim that we have exterminated an entire regiment of soldiers. In addition to that group of students, you will definitely be rewarded by your superiors!”
This puppet soldier was very good at bootlicking and had put in a lot of effort.
At this moment, his words made sense, causing the young master to reveal a satisfied smile.
"Yosh!"
"Although my Xiaoye Squad only has 70 people, it is a full squad. They are all equipped with Type 38 rifles, grenade launchers, mortars, and light and heavy machine guns. Dealing with less than 100 people, and a badly equipped Tu Ba, is simply too easy!”
"Here, I still have to thank you for providing me with such a rare opportunity!”
"Don't worry, I won't burn the bridge after crossing it. I'll ask for credit for you!”
"A captain of the Imperial Association Army is nothing. I would suggest that you become a battalion commander of the Imperial Association Army!”
"Thank you, Major Ono, thank you!”
When the puppet soldier heard this promise, he laughed even more happily!
At the same time, in the valley.
There was a group of emaciated Eighth Route Army soldiers in thin clothes and straw sandals hiding behind simple bunkers. They were engaged in a life-and-death battle with the well-equipped Japanese.
What could he do?
Although the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were brave, their eyes were filled with determination.
However, they were wearing too little. It was too cold, and their hands were trembling and freezing.
Coupled with the outdated weapons…
There were less than 100 people in the team, and there were only about 30 guns. On average, four people each had a gun, and they were all made in the border area. The sleeves were old, and the rifling was worn out.
There were no grenades, and some people could only use cold weapons to defend against the enemy.
However, even so, they did not retreat, nor did they show the slightest fear. Instead, they remained rooted to the ground without hesitation.
This was because behind them, there were dozens of male and female students hiding behind a huge rock, looking at everything in front of them in horror.
As the saying goes, the lives of the people are their own lives!
This group of soldiers from the 8th Route Army had no qualms about leaving. Moreover, these students were all talented and the future hope of the 8th Route Army. They could not take even half a step back!
"Dabiao, how are the students?”
The person who spoke was a burly man wearing a patched and old military uniform. He was hiding behind a bunker and observing the enemy with an old telescope.
This man was about 38 or 39 years old. He was tall and sturdy. His head was like a millstone, and his eyes were like copper bells. When he opened his mouth, it was as if he could swallow a mountain. His entire person looked completely ferocious.
However, when he talked about those students, he revealed a trace of gentleness, and his eyes were filled with worry.
His name was Li Yunlong, the new regiment commander of the 386th Brigade of the 8th Army.
At this moment, his expression was a little ugly.
He put down the binoculars and turned around to look at the student hiding behind the rock. There was a flash of anxiety in his eyes.
His new group had just been established.
More than half of the troops did not have firearms, and their combat strength was not even comparable to the county brigade.
However, he was ordered by his superiors to cooperate with his brothers and protect a group of very important students from entering Northwest Shanxi.
Initially, things were going very smoothly. After being escorted by them, they could enter the safe base.
However, they did not expect that when the brothers handed the students over to them, they were discovered by the Japanese.
As a result, they were blocked by an elite Japanese team.
It didn't matter if their entire group died, but if those students fell into the hands of the Japanese, it would be difficult.
"Guild Leader, the students are fine. They just suffered a little shock!”
The tall and sturdy 1st Battalion Commander, Zhang Dabiao, came to Li Yun Long's side and said with an ugly expression.
"However, we don't have much ammunition left. If the Japanese attack again, we will run out of ammunition!”
Zhang Dabiao's voice sounded a little aggrieved.
If it was because their new regiment was not brave enough that the students were eventually eliminated, he would not have any complaints.
But now, because of the lack of ammunition, all their efforts were going to be wasted. This made Zhang Dabiao very sullen.
"Damn it. I, Li Yunlong, have fought against the Japanese for years, but I have never fought such a humiliating battle. It's simply useless to let them be blocked in this valley and be beaten passively!”
Hearing Zhang Dabiao's words, Li Yunlong's face immediately revealed a vexed expression.
He slapped the hard rock hard and roared unwillingly.
"Regiment commander, we can't blame you. It's because the Japanese have better equipment than us.”
Zhang Dabiao glanced at Li Yunlong, who was flustered and exasperated, and continued.
"Captain, the best thing to do now is to break out of the encirclement. Otherwise, we will all be wiped out!”
"Break out of the encirclement?"
"Are you f * cking joking again?"
Li Yunlong glared at Zhang Dabiao and began to think about how to keep these students alive.
What he didn't know was that his roar just now had shaken a calm young man!
At this moment, not far behind him, there was a young man wearing a student's uniform. His eyes were wide open as he stared at Li Yunlong's back, and his expression was filled with shock.
"Li Yunlong?"
"I actually transmigrated to the World of the Unsheathed Sword!”
