Chapter 21: The End of the Japs

"Wei Shao, it's bad, the Japanese are catching up."

Before Wei Jichen reached the guard post, a soldier rushed over.

"Yes, there are more than a hundred people, all riding tall horses! They are coming from a distance." When the soldier saw Wei Jichen, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said breathlessly.

"Have they found you?" Wei Jichen was not panicked. It was better to come by chance than by chance. Guys and gentlemen, you have all rested. Just wash your necks and wait.

"The Japanese didn't notice me."

"Well done! Come on, let's deal with them now." Wei Jichen patted the soldier on the shoulder and said appreciatively.

The two of them hurried to the lawn where they were resting.

Wei Jichen quickly explained the situation, and then said seriously: "Brothers, although there are more than a hundred Japanese, they never expected that we happened to discover them, and we were waiting for work, and we could also set up an ambush. This time, I, Wei Jichen, I’m going to take you and beat the shit out of these little Japans.”

The soldiers on guard saw Saitō Masa and his entourage riding horses from a distance. However, it was probably half an hour before they arrived here, so Wei Jichen had time to make arrangements.

"Yunfei, you lead twenty brothers to ambush on the opposite side. I will lead the remaining brothers to ambush here. Use the sound of gunshots as a signal. Once the Japanese step into our encirclement, we will tell them to never come back." Wei Jichen gave orders with high spirits.

Growing up in a peaceful era, he had never commanded an army in combat. Fortunately, he still had the experience of his predecessor in his mind, so he commanded it in an orderly manner.

"Brothers, how can we return to Nie Shuai empty-handed? These Japanese heads are the best gift we can give to Nie Shuai. Little Japan is really generous." Wei Jichen said with a smile.

When the soldiers heard this and saw Wei Jichen's relaxed expression, they laughed heartily, and the tense atmosphere before the battle eased.

Li Yunfei showed a happy smile, Zijie, are you finally mature?

Li Yunfei led the troops away, while Wei Jichen and the other twenty soldiers lay in the bushes behind a slope. From the road, no one could be seen inside. He had already observed the Japanese before they arrived. Alright terrain.

Therefore, Wei Jichen didn't feel any panic now.

Wei Jichen gritted his teeth and entered the system to use all his merit points to buy bullets. Seeing that only 04 merit points were left, Wei Jichen was speechless.

Fortunately, more than 200 bullets appeared in his arms at once. Wei Jichen half-hunched his body, moved lightly, and began to disperse the bullets.

The soldiers happily took the bullets and put them in their arms. They didn't think much about the bullet's origin, and they didn't ask much. Most of them thought that Wei Jichen got it from other soldiers.

The soldiers carefully held their breath and waited quietly. In the valley, the Japanese cavalry had not yet appeared.

Wei Jichen glanced at Mengzi, who was lying motionless with his eyes looking at the valley, and couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart: "This guy is really a born sniper."

"Mengzi, you'll be the first to shoot later. Capture the thief first and capture the king first. You'll know where to hit me." Wei Jichen said softly. The soldiers of Gongzi camp had been fighting with the Japanese for a long time, and they knew their organization very well.

As long as he is riding a tall horse, wearing white gloves on his hands, and wearing a command knife on his body, he is still a small boss even if he is not wearing a general uniform.

Mengzi nodded slightly, grinned, and said, "I won't let you down, Wei Shao."

Vaguely, a group of Japanese began to appear in Wei Jichen's field of vision. Due to the small road, there were about a hundred people on horseback, forming a long snake.

What made Wei Jichen even more excited was that the Japanese were so arrogant that there were no scouts patrolling in front of them.

In Wei Jichen's eyes, each Japanese turned into a little bit of meritorious service.

Saito Masaki, you will pay the price for your arrogance. Wei Jichen picked up a piece of grass and put it into his mouth and chewed it gently.

Captain, he is worth more than 500 merit points. Unfortunately, if he is killed by a fierce man, he can only gain 90%.

It seems that I need to practice more marksmanship when I have time in the future, Wei Jichen thought to himself.

The belated Japanese finally appeared under the eyes of Wei Jichen and others. Wei Jichen's palms were sweating as he watched the army horses gallop into the ambush.

Wait a little longer, wait until most of the Japanese have entered before attacking, Wei Jichen said secretly.

Saito Masaki, who did not know that death had quietly come, rode his horse and walked in the middle of the team.

"Sir, it can be seen from the heat of the ashes that the Chinese people just passed through this place not long ago." A soldier who was ordered to come forward to check the barbecue place of the captive army reported to Saito Masaki.

The burning firewood had long been extinguished, but the ashes still had some warmth, so the Japanese soldiers deduced that Wei Jichen and others had just left.

Are you finally catching up? A burst of light burst out from Saito Zhengqi's eyes, Wei Jichen, you are just waiting to crawl at my feet.

"Go down with the order, prepare for battle, and speed up the march." Saito shouted loudly as he wiped away the fatigue of the journey.

"Hai!"

The Japanese cavalry seemed to have taken stimulants, and their marching speed accelerated to a degree visible to the naked eye.

Although Wei Jichen did not recognize Saito Masaki, he saw a man wearing the uniform of a Japanese lieutenant and several Japanese soldiers talking condescendingly, so he concluded that this man was a Japanese captain.

Seeing that he had stepped into the encirclement, Wei Jichen would still be waiting for a long time.

He raised his hand and waved downward briefly and forcefully, and said awkwardly: "Hit!"

Mengzi, who was lying beside him, reacted quickly. As soon as he received the order, a gunshot rang out. At this time, Wei Jichen himself took aim.

Mengzi's gunshot shocked both armies. The army received the signal and fired one after another.

Suddenly, gunshots rang out all around the valley, and the sound of bangs was endless.

The Japanese were stunned at first, and then there was a great chaos.

The neighing of war horses, the roar of officers, and the screams of soldiers were all loud.

The Japanese were completely stunned. They never expected that the Chinese, who were prey, would turn around and become hunters.

The most unlucky person should be the Japanese captain Saito Masaaki. As soon as he heard the gunshot, he felt black in front of his eyes, and then he felt weak all over. He fell off the horse with a thud, and then in the haze, he seemed to hear the call of his mother far away in Tokyo.

Staff officer Yanagi Ichiro saw with his own eyes that Saito Masaaki was shot in the forehead, and white brain matter mixed with red blood flowed down, and then he fell off the horse with his screams.

"Get off the horse, get off the horse!" Yanagiya Ichiro shouted in fear and rolled on the ground.

Saito Masaaki's death made him realize that the enemy had a sharpshooter, otherwise he would not be so accurate. For his life, he had to lie on the ground tightly, and did not stand up even when his feet were stepped on by the horse.

The military literacy of the Japanese was still good. Except for the soldiers who died in the first round of the captured army, most of the others were lying on the ground or hiding behind the horses, fighting back on both sides.

However, the captured temporary army occupied the high ground on both sides of the valley, so it was not easy for the Japanese to fight back.

Shoot the horse first before shooting the man. The soldiers with poor gun skills all shot at the horses. The horses were frightened and in a mess. In addition, the road was small and could not be used. The war horses could only run wildly on the soldiers.

Some unlucky Japanese had their stomachs trampled by the military horses on the spot, their intestines flowed all over the ground, and they fell to the ground and wailed.

"Retreat, retreat!" Yanagiya Ichiro took over the command and ordered loudly.

The cavalry was intercepted in the middle, and it was not easy for the Japanese to retreat. A Japanese soldier was hit and fell to the ground as soon as he half exposed his body.

Before long, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers suffered heavy losses, and blood flowed like a river, dyeing the trail red.
