Chapter 472 Catching the Japanese Soldiers (Part 4)

"Sigh, I've run into Lao Liu again. Luckily, I was careful."

Noticing the commotion behind him and the frantic alarm from his sense of danger, Bai Luo sighed inwardly.

Bai Luo wasn't surprised by this situation. If the Japanese locust's defenses were really as simple as Bai Luo had discovered, then the Japanese locust would probably be dead by now.

They wouldn't have survived to this day.

Although he knew someone was attacking him from behind, Bai Luo did not make any move to dodge.

"puff."

Just as the cold light behind him was about to reach Bai Luo's neck, a barely perceptible gunshot rang out in the bedroom of the Japanese soldier Tianhuang.

"Ding-a-ling. Clang."

With a soft metallic tapping sound, the cold light behind Bai Luo stopped falling.

"Forehead...."

Rukawa Kenichiro stared in disbelief at the figure in front of him who was about to kidnap His Majesty the Heavenly Locust.

To be precise, his gaze was fixed on the armpit of the dark figure in front of him.

There, a dark gun muzzle had appeared out of nowhere. At that moment, Rukawa Inuichirou, who had night vision, even saw a wisp of smoke rising from the muzzle.

Rukawa Kenichiro stood frozen in place, the sharp pain in his forehead and the katana that was about to slip from his hand telling him that he had been shot, and that the injury was serious.

Rukawa Kenichiro could even clearly feel his life rapidly slipping away.

The scene before him suddenly became blurry, and then Rukawa Kenichiro could no longer maintain his balance and fell directly to the ground.

Bai Luo, who had been facing away, had somehow turned around and grabbed Rukawa Kenichiro, who was about to fall to the ground.

At the same time, he caught the katana in his hand and gently placed it on the floor.

"Phew... This Japanese devil's ability to conceal his presence is really impressive; I wouldn't have noticed him unless he made a move."

Bai Luo glanced at the Japanese soldier dressed in black on the ground and muttered something under his breath.

As for why there was no Japanese soldier's identification on the monitoring radar, Bai Luo thought that the Japanese soldier might be a royal assassin or something like that.

It did not belong to the Japanese military, just like the time when Jinshi was attacked.

"Fortunately, this Japanese soldier was probably a bit too overconfident. He didn't warn anyone outside when he ambushed me. Otherwise, I would have been in serious trouble."

Bai Luo thought with a sense of relief.

However, if the deceased Rukawa Kenichiro knew about Bai Luo's guess, he would definitely stand up in anger and argue with Bai Luo.

He launched a sneak attack from behind. How could he guarantee the surprise of the attack if he warned others? And since he struck directly at a vital point, how could he have jeopardized the situation?

And not only is it that a good person can shoot someone in the back accurately, but the sound is so quiet, even a fart makes a louder noise.

After confirming that there were no other Lao Lius in the room, Bai Luo packed up the Japanese locust, hoisted it onto his shoulder, and quickly climbed out through the back window he had pried open.

Thanks to the monitoring radar, Bai Luo slipped out of the mansion without any trouble.

The Japanese soldiers inside were completely unaware that their locusts had been stolen.

In a grove of trees southeast of the Japanese capital.

Zheng Xianzheng and the remaining 9 people hid in the very center of the woods.

Moreover, the atmosphere among them was somewhat somber, with everyone silently keeping their heads down.

They looked dejected and exhausted; some were checking their weapons, while others were tending to their wounds.

Zheng Xian, who was sitting in the middle of the group, was also in a sorry state.

He was filthy from head to toe and reeked of gunpowder.

It was clear that a fierce battle had just taken place not long ago.

Actually, it wasn't just him; the rest of them weren't much better off, especially Li Qi.

I don't know if it's because I've been having bad luck lately or what.

The chase that evening resulted in another bullet graze on his buttocks.

Fortunately, apart from some pain and the inability to sit, his mobility was not greatly affected.

"Captain, this is the situation. The Japanese have already surrounded this entire forest with a large force."

Although they didn't immediately enter the woods, I guessed they were waiting for daylight to capture us all.

"I doubt we'll make it out alive this time."

At this moment, Xiao Yu, the only girl in the team, was reporting the situation she had just discovered to Zheng Xian.

His tone involuntarily carried a hint of despair and helplessness.

She is clearly pessimistic about their current situation.

After all, compared to the more than 1000 fully armed Japanese soldiers on the outskirts of the woods, they only had nine men at most, and less than 200 bullets in total.

With such a small number of people and equipment, breaking out of the encirclement would be harder than climbing to heaven.

After listening to Xiao Yu's intelligence report and hearing her extremely negative tone, Zheng Xian couldn't help but turn around and look at the silent team members around him.

Zheng Xian sighed silently to himself, knowing all too well that this time the odds were against him.

There is basically no hope of breaking through.

However, he is the team leader for this trip, and the atmosphere in the team is so low right now.

As the team leader, he definitely needs to boost morale and give his teammates some hope.

Otherwise, given their current state, they might as well just tie themselves up, walk out, and surrender—that would be much more satisfying.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xian tidied his words and prepared to tell a white lie.

"Brothers, when we came to Japan, we had already anticipated the worst possible outcome, and before we came, headquarters assured us that they would take good care of our families."

I have some good news to share. We're not fighting this battle alone. You've probably all heard Li Qi mention that I have a relative here. I made an appointment with him beforehand.

If we are surrounded, he will send men to meet us when we try to break out.

Therefore, we are not in dire straits.

As Zheng Xian finished speaking, his gaze swept over everyone present once again.

Sure enough, the remaining eight people were shocked when they heard that there were people waiting outside.

Seeing this, Zheng Xian couldn't help but sigh inwardly again. But his expression remained resolute as he continued.

"It's 3:15 a.m. We've been surrounded here for almost 3 hours, and I believe my relatives have already received the news."

I order everyone to close their eyes and rest now. At 4:30 AM, we will break out directly to the east.

"Yes!"

Li Qi, Xiao Yu, and the other eight responded in unison, and the atmosphere among them was more than twice as good as before.

Zheng Xian sat back down under the tree and began to count his weapons and remaining bullets.

Just then, Li Qi limped over to Zheng Xian, then squatted down in front of him, wincing in pain.

Seeing this, Zheng Xian looked at Li Qi with some confusion, wondering why this guy was squatting in front of him instead of resting properly.

So he asked directly.

"Li Qi, why are you squatting in front of me instead of finding a place to rest? Don't hold me back when we break through."

Li Qi smiled wryly upon hearing this, then looked around to make sure his companions weren't paying attention.

Then he leaned close to Zheng Xian's ear and whispered something.

"Brother Zheng, when we break through, you follow behind me. I know what you said just now was to reassure the troops. We have no support at all."

You didn't make an appointment with Xiao Luo either. If you had, Xiao Luo should have shown up when we were being chased this afternoon.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xian's expression changed. He was about to speak when Li Qi gestured for him to remain silent.

"Don't worry, Brother Zheng, I didn't tell anyone. In my current state, I definitely can't break through, but you still have a chance, Brother Zheng. I'll cover you in a bit, you must fight your way out."

I don't believe the guarantees made by the KMT. From now on, my wife and daughter will depend on your help.

As Li Qi spoke, his eyes were fixed on Zheng Xian.

At this moment, Zheng Xian also understood what Li Qi meant from his eyes.

Zheng Xian stared intently into Li Qi's eyes and said solemnly.

"If I survive, I'll take care of your family."

"Brother Zheng, your words are enough."

After hearing Zheng Xian's assurance, Li Qi's face returned to a smile.

Then, grimacing, he stood up and walked to an open space to lie down and rest.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yu, who was not far away, couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression on her face.

It was as if they had vaguely guessed something. Their initial excitement instantly subsided.

Then, just like Zheng Xian, he began to clean out all the weapons and ammunition on his body.

Finally, he secretly removed a bullet from the magazine and carefully stuffed it into the pocket on his waist.

That was prepared for herself.
