The midday sun shines through the leafy canopy and casts dots of light in the forest. A foraging pine tree is jumping among the thick rotten leaves, looking for food.
Suddenly there was the sound of crunching dead branches not far away. The frightened pine tree climbed up a big tree with lightning speed and stayed on the high branch, staring at it as if it were a formidable enemy.
A stranger appears in the woods.
A group of Japanese soldiers from the Skeleton Special Forces wearing camouflage nets were carefully walking through the forest with their 100-type submachine guns.
Soon, this group of Japs came out of the woods, and under the cover of shrubs and grass, approached the outskirts of the Black Wolf Village in Xiaoqingshan.
Black Wolf Village was originally the lair of the bandit Jiao Chong and others, but since Zhang Liechen and others wiped out the bandits, they have used it as the headquarters of their Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps.
This time, Yang Ling knew that the Japs had sent elite troops to target him, so he used himself as bait to attract the Japs, hoping to annihilate the little Japs.
Now all the irrelevant personnel near Black Wolf Village have been evacuated, leaving only Yang Ling and some officers and soldiers of the guard company.
The officers and soldiers of the guard company also knew that an elite group of Japanese soldiers had arrived nearby. They did not dare to be careless, so they were very vigilant.
The Japs were well-trained and wore camouflage nets, but this was the territory of the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps. As soon as the Japs appeared, the sentries from the guard company spotted them.
However, the sentry did not make any noise, but quickly rushed to the headquarters during the changing of the guard and reported the situation.
"The Japs are already here. There are at least twenty of them at the edge of the forest to the west." The sentry reported excitedly to Yang Ling.
"Only more than twenty?" Yang Ling and his staff frowned when they heard that there were only so few Japanese.
"The Japanese are so arrogant that we don't take them seriously. They dare to send more than 20 people deep into the mountains to carry out an attack. They are too arrogant!" Someone cursed angrily.
"Sir, I will lead my brothers to capture them!"
When Sun Liang, the commander of the guard company, heard that the Japanese were coming, he didn't think too much. This was a good opportunity to make a meritorious service, so he immediately asked for a fight.
Watching the two battalions of combat troops going to fight the bandits and having a lively fight, their guard company had been guarding Xiaoqingshan without moving. Sun Liang's hands had been itchy for a long time.
"Let's not alert the enemy yet, there may be more than just a few Japs." Based on Yang Ling's intuition, he felt that things were not that simple.
"Send people to take a closer look in all other directions and report back if there is any situation." Yang Ling ordered.
"yes!"
Although Sun Liang's hands were itchy, he did not dare to attack without Yang Ling's order. He responded and went to other directions to investigate the situation himself.
You wouldn't know if you didn't do the investigation. Once you did the investigation, you were shocked to find the little Japs in all directions, which immediately made Sun Liang nervous.
When the intelligence was gathered in Yang Ling and they learned that an unknown number of Japs were found in all directions of Black Wolf Village, the staff became uneasy.
"Sir, it is not good for a gentleman to live under a dangerous wall. Leave this place to us. You can move first."
Now an unknown number of Japs were appearing in all directions. The staff couldn't bear to have Yang Ling make any mistakes, so they persuaded Yang Ling to leave this dangerous place first.
"What are you afraid of? The soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. We are fully prepared. We are not afraid of a few little devils. Everything will be carried out according to the original plan." Yang Ling seemed very calm.
"But..." Guard company commander Sun Liang also wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by Yang Ling's wave of his hand.
"It's nothing, but we have so many people in the security company and have made so many arrangements. The little devil can't do anything to us."
This is not because Yang Ling is pretending to be calm, but because he has received information from various intelligence points outside the mountain, and there are no large-scale Japs entering the mountain.
That means that what appears near their headquarters at this moment is just a small group of little Japs, and their guard company can handle them.
What's more, there is Wei Qing's Lieyan Special Operations Brigade on the periphery. As long as they firmly attract this little devil here, they can counter-encircle him and completely eliminate this little devil.
"Let the brothers prepare for battle. Just hold off the little Japs later and wait for reinforcements from the brothers from the Flame Special Warfare Brigade."
"yes!"
After Sun Liang saluted, he turned around and strode out of the command post to make arrangements.
While the brothers of the guard company guarding the Black Wolf Village in Xiaoqingshan were quietly preparing for battle, the Japanese soldiers who had lurked near the command post did not know and had no intention of attacking immediately.
"What does this little devil want to do? Why doesn't he attack?"
The brothers in the guard company were well prepared and were waiting for the Japs to attack. Unfortunately, they waited and waited, but the Japs showed no sign of attacking.
"Could the kid be waiting for dark?" a brother speculated.
"Whatever, as long as they dare to come, I guarantee they will never come back." A brother said confidently.
While the brothers were waiting impatiently, suddenly several heavy planes crossed the top of the mountain and appeared in their sight.
"It's the kid's plane!"
When they saw the Japs' plane that was rapidly growing in size in their field of vision, the faces of the brothers in the security company lying everywhere suddenly changed wildly. They finally knew why the Japs had not attacked for so long.
"Get into the bomb shelter quickly!"
Soon an officer reacted and roared loudly.
The brothers in the guard company did not dare to neglect, and ran towards the nearest air-raid shelter as fast as they could.
Fortunately, Yang Ling and the others had been paying special attention to air defense. In addition to camouflaging the houses everywhere, they also spent a lot of effort digging some air defense shelters.
The shrill sound of the air raid sirens echoed in the mountains, and the brothers hurriedly hid in various air raid shelters.
However, the Japs' plane passed over the heads of the brothers, which only gave them a false alarm. They did not drop the bomb immediately, but circled several times before confirming the target of the bombing.
Soon the Japanese plane roared and swooped down, and the machine gun on board fired first. The ballistic path caused mud and wood to fly everywhere, and many houses were directly exposed to light.
The Japanese bombers followed closely behind the reconnaissance plane and dropped heavy bombs one after another.
"Boom!"
The bomb that landed exploded with a roar, and with the earth-shattering roar, mushroom clouds rose up.
In the successive explosions, many houses covered with camouflage were flattened to the ground and filled with smoke and dust.
The brothers who were hiding in the air-raid shelter were unable to stand firm in the earthquake-shaking explosion. The choking smoke poured into the air-raid shelter and entered the brothers' lungs, making it difficult for the brothers to breathe.
When the brothers of the Lieyan Special Warfare Brigade in the distant mountains heard the deafening explosion in the distance and the Japanese planes circling and swooping in the sky, their faces changed wildly. They didn't expect that the little Japanese soldiers actually called all the planes.
