Chapter 442: Surround and Attack

The first target was eliminated.

Only Zhang Yong himself knew about this.

Even Cao Mengqi, the one who fired the shot, could not tell if he had hit the target.

The second target was even less likely.

Therefore, the second target was still moving slowly.

The urban terrain was intricate and complex. Streets and alleys, doorways and windows, all could be used to traverse.

There are also many ruined walls and broken walls to make use of.

The killers walking among them are obviously very proficient in this field. They can always make the best choice for themselves.

Some choices are indeed very unexpected. Very hidden.

If it weren't for the map, Zhang Yong would never have noticed someone approaching.

He might have been shot by the enemy and not even understood what was going on.

But now, he is clear and obvious.

How many enemies are nearby. Where they are. What their movements look like. He knows all of this.

It feels like playing a game.

He can 'monitor' the movements of each enemy from a commanding position.

All he has to do is wait for the enemy to enter the ambush.

Then he can shoot them dead.

Soon, another target is locked in. It is behind a door.

Yes. A door.

To be precise, it is the broken wooden door of a ruined house.

This enemy entered from the back of the ruined house and climbed over the wall. Then he leaned against the broken wooden door and peered out through the gaps.

From the perspective of this enemy, his movements were very stealthy.

The enemy could not see him from the gaps in the wooden door. No one has such keen eyesight. Even with binoculars, it's impossible.

But Zhang Yong had discovered it long ago. He had been keeping a close eye on him.

Now, the opportunity to shoot him has come.

'Cao!'

Zhang Yong instructs Cao Mengqi on the target.

Cao Mengqi: ?

Shoot a door?

The enemy is behind the door?

It feels unbelievable...

He doesn't see anything but the wooden door.

Even with the use of binoculars, he can't see clearly that there is someone behind the door.

Are you sure?

Zhang Yong nods.

Yes. The target is behind the door.

Shoot!

Just hit the middle of the door and you can seriously injure the enemy. You can even capture him alive.

It seems that we can capture a live one for questioning.

'Bang!'

Cao Mengqi fired.

A crisp gunshot.

Yoshiko Kawashima in the distance grew more and more impatient.

The gun had already been fired many times. Why hadn't anyone come to report the good news yet?

It was impossible that so many shots had been fired and none had hit the target.

She had personally selected those assassins. They were all top-notch experts. Their marksmanship was absolutely top-notch.

However, until now, no one had reported to her on the battle situation.

What's going on?

Has something gone wrong?

...

After the shot, the white dot didn't disappear. But it didn't move either. It was still behind the door.

Zhang Yong judged from this that the target had been hit. But he wasn't dead yet. He was incapacitated. He was probably lying on the ground, gasping for breath. Or maybe he was unconscious.

So he waved his hand.

Someone went up immediately and crept up quietly.

The target didn't react.

Two agents approached from behind. They dragged the enemy back.

He is indeed still alive. But he is unconscious. The bullet actually hit the chest. It just didn't hit the heart directly.

There is no hope.

He can only last a few minutes at most.

There is no way to interrogate him. He will never regain consciousness.

Sure enough, a minute later, the enemy died of natural causes.

Haha. We caught a lonely one.

We have to give up.

Continue to move.

Locked on another target...

'Bang!'

One shot to kill.

Drag the body and weapon back. Don't want to be discovered.

Another target locked in.

'Bang!'

One shot to kill.

Drag the body and weapon back.

Successively killed five targets. The enemy still hasn't noticed anything unusual.

Kawashima Yoshiko still doesn't know that half of the assassins she dispatched have already been eliminated. The rest continue to die.

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

Two more killed.

However, at this time, more white dots appeared.

But Kawashima Yoshiko was anxious and ordered more troops to be deployed. The assassins she had transferred from Xinjing continued to be deployed.

She wanted to overwhelm Zhang Yong with numbers.

Ten against one.

Should be able to kill Zhang Yong, right?

As long as one person successfully captures Zhang Yong, he is dead.

'Retreat!'

'Retreat!'

Zhang Yong did not linger. He quickly led his team to withdraw.

There were too many enemies, and it was not cost-effective to continue fighting. So he retreated decisively.

They quickly retreated southwest. Gradually retreating to the outskirts. The terrain here is flat and open. Not conducive to enemy concealment.

Those little white dots are still in hot pursuit.

There are at least 30 of them within the scope of the map monitor. I'm really impressed.

How many people did Kawashima Yoshiko mobilise after all?

This female traitor! She really worked hard for the Japanese!

Never mind!

Fight back.

A new target appears. It is accurately captured.

'Bang!'

Yu Le wakes up and shoots the target dead.

Unfortunately, the enemy is still in other places. The bodies cannot be disposed of. Nor can the weapons be brought back.

The result is...

They are exposed.

The other enemies finally realise that something is wrong. Their own people have been killed. They hurry back to report.

'What?'

'Hagah!'

Kawashima Yoshiko is both anxious and angry.

How could this happen? How come all her own people have been killed?

She hadn't even captured Zhang Yong?

Did the previous gunshots mean that all the dead were her own men?

This cruel reality was soon confirmed. Bodies were discovered one after the other.

Indeed, they were Kawashima Yoshiko's own men.

'Hagah!'

'Zhang Yong!'

'Aaaaaah!'

Kawashima Yoshiko was hysterical.

All her hopes had turned to disappointment. Then to frustration. Then to madness.

And then all of it turned into a single obsession.

She had to kill Zhang Yong!

She wants to tear Zhang Yong to pieces!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Yu Lexing immediately agreed.

He didn't want to continue to tangle with the enemy either. They couldn't afford to.

There were too many enemies, and there were still reinforcements coming. They couldn't afford to be in a stalemate with the enemy for long. They had to break away.

Tang Village had weapons and ammunition from the Yuan Wenhui. It would be best to get them.

However, this was a trap.

As soon as the guns went off, the nearby Japanese invaders would come to their aid.

'We'll fight the Japanese invaders in an ambush.'

'Oh?'

Yu Lexing's eyes flashed.

This Zhang Yong really has some nerve. He dares to ambush the regular army of the Japanese invaders.

However, they now have more than ten rifles in their hands.

As long as there are bullets, the firepower is still very considerable. It is more than enough for an ambush.

The key is, will the Japanese invaders who are attacked pursue? Or will they come to Tang Village to rescue it?

If they pursue, it may lead to something going wrong in Tang Village.

If they don't pursue, they can retreat safely. Then they will seize the opportunity and come back to kill a few more Japanese invaders.

In any case, the Japanese soldiers were in a dilemma.

They immediately set off for Tang Village.

They arrived near Tang Village.

Sure enough, Tang Village was quiet. It was like being in the jaws of a tiger.

The surveillance map showed that the number of white dots inside had increased to more than 50.

It seemed that the Japanese soldiers were worried about an accident in Tang Village and had secretly increased their troop strength.

If the attackers did not know the situation inside, they would definitely suffer greatly.

But now...

Zhang Yongna made up his mind. Let the Japanese soldiers tire themselves out.

Arrange the operation.

Attack the enemy sentries. Attack the sentries exclusively.

'Pop!'

'Pop!'

The guns fired.

Simultaneous fire from multiple directions.

The four traitor sentries fell at the same time. And then died.

'Pop!'

'Pop!'

The traitors inside Tangcun hurriedly returned fire.

They had been on high alert, waiting for the enemy to take the bait. So, after being attacked, they immediately launched a counterattack.

'Ta-ta-ta...'

'Ta-ta-ta...'

The sound of a Czech light machine gun came from the direction of the Tang village.

The bullets rained down in a hail, sending up clouds of dust in the surrounding fields.

Fortunately, Zhang Yong and the others had already moved.

They were waiting in ambush, far away from the road the Japanese soldiers would soon be passing along. They were preparing to ambush the Japanese reinforcements.

There was no chance of success in Tang village. They had to think of another plan.

Surrounding the city and attacking the reinforcements, or attacking the reinforcements at a specific point?

This was a common tactic in the future. Zhang Yong had also learned it.

Sure enough, half an hour later, the Japanese advance guard appeared. All infantry. About 150 people.

From the binoculars, you could see that the leader was a Japanese captain. Judging from the insignia, he was a squadron leader or something.

He was carrying grenade launchers and light machine guns. No heavy machine guns.

The Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun was just too heavy. It was impossible to carry it on an emergency march.

Good, we'll fight these Japanese.

He gave Cao Mengqi a sideways glance. He noticed that this guy was full of murderous intent.

Well, it seems to be a bit related to what the Huangpu students studied. Ambush. Enemy. Regular army. Finally, it wasn't boringly catching Japanese spies. Instead, they were preparing for a fierce battle.

'Ready!'

'Fire!'

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

All rifles immediately opened fire.

'Pop!'

'Pop!'

Everyone fired a full magazine. Then they quickly withdrew.

They cannot reload the magazines. Otherwise, the Japanese will counterattack.

'Pop...'

'Pop...'

It is clear that some Japanese soldiers have been hit. They fall to the ground.

However, the Japanese soldiers who have been attacked are not panicking, but quickly disperse to either side of the road. They each seek cover.

Some grenade launcher gunners quickly set up their grenade launchers and prepare to fire.

'Go!'

'Go!'

Zhang Yong ordered hastily.

Mad, the Japanese regular army responded too quickly.

It didn't take a minute before they launched a counterattack.

It was too fast.

Once the grenade launchers started firing, they were finished.

Run, run, run!

Hurry up and run!

They ran tens of metres in one breath.

'Boom...'

An explosion sounded behind them.

Sure enough, it was the Japanese grenade launcher firing.

What good aim.

It was right where they had just been ambushed.

Luckily, they've already run away. Otherwise, someone would definitely have been killed or injured.

Goodness, that was really fierce.

Without mortars, facing the Japanese head-on is just asking for trouble.

Keep retreating,

retreating until the Japanese mortars can't reach them.

'Stop firing!'

'Stop firing!'

The Japanese captain waved his sword. He's very irritable.

Didn't hear the enemy's strong anymore. Probably ran away.

Baka!

What should we do now?

Pursue?

What about Tang Village?

What if this is a diversionary tactic to lure us away?

Don't pursue?

We've suffered a pointless attack. Several people have died.

I'm so angry.

A while ago, several Japanese soldiers were killed in a hail of bullets. Several more were injured.

This is a bad start. This makes the Japanese captain leading the troops very angry.

His forehead is sweating with anxiety. He doesn't know what to do. He didn't have a radio. He couldn't ask his superiors for instructions.

'Baka!'

'Baka!'

In the end, the Japanese captain chose to go to Tang Village.

His mission was to support Tang Village and ensure that it was safe.

If this was a diversionary tactic by the enemy to lure him away, then it would be foolish for him to chase after them.

He was angry.

What about the casualties?

He could only bear with it.
