Chapter 177 Revenge!

A seemingly ordinary hillside.

The hillside, which was supposed to be empty, now had dozens of dark shadows under the moonlight.

Dozens of black shadows leaned against the hillside one after another, using the hillside to hide their bodies.

If they didn’t get close, no one would be able to tell that these dozens of black shadows were living people.

In order to avoid being discovered unexpectedly, all the shadows did not make any movements, and even their breathing was suppressed to the minimum.

Even if someone passed by the hill at this moment, they would not notice that there were dozens of people hiding at the bottom of the hill.

There was not even the sound of insects chirping on the entire hillside. Even a mouse passing by would be quickly caught and crushed to death by the black shadow next to it, ensuring that no sound was made.

It can be said that the area near the hillside is a bit too quiet.

“Meow~”

Soon, the silence was broken by the sound of a cat.

Along with the cat’s cry, a dark shadow under the mound on the outer edge of the hillside reached for his waist with his right hand, then slowly lay on the ground and moved towards the direction where the sound came from.

Using the moonlight, one can see that the dark shadow is wearing a completely black nightgown, with several black-painted knives tied to the cloth belt around his waist.

“Meow~meow~”

Just as the black shadow was about to climb out of the mound to see what was going on, he heard a cat’s meow again from the direction where the sound came from.

Hearing the cat’s cry, the black shadow loosened his right hand holding the knife, slowly stood up, and used a branch to wave to the outside of the hill.

Soon, a man dressed no differently from ordinary people climbed over the mound and carefully came to the bottom of the mound.

The man in black at the bottom of the mound quickly gestured in the direction of the slope.

Then I saw the man crouching and moving quickly towards the hillside.

There wasn’t even a hint of conversation between the two.

Those dark shadows below the hillside were naturally the remaining troops of the special forces team led by Yamamoto Ikki.

That guy was the Japanese soldier code-named Horse Urine who was sent by Scarface to report the situation at the front to Yamamoto Ikki.

As soon as the horse urine touched the hillside, a dark shadow quickly dragged the horse urine into the shadow of the hillside to avoid being discovered.

It can be said that Yamamoto Ikki was extremely cautious.

Not only were scouts arranged to scout the route in advance, but a large number of sentries were also arranged near the rear area.

Ma Niu, who was dragged into the hillside, had no time to ask where Yamamoto Ikki was.

Just as he came to his senses, he discovered that the person who had just pulled him into the shadow of the hillside was the captain of the special forces team, Yamamoto Ikki!
At this moment, Yamamoto Ikki was not as polite and well-behaved as he was in the war room. People felt at first glance that he was easy to get along with.

Yamamoto Ikki now exudes a dangerous aura.

Those not-so-big eyes revealed coldness and cruelty, totally unlike the respectful look he showed when facing Yoshio Shinozuka or Yufu Hiraru, but there was also a certain arrogance in his eyes.

At this moment, Yamamoto Kazuki was like a hyena that had discovered its prey and was about to attack it!

This was the first time that Ma Niu went out on a mission with Yamamoto Ikki, and it was also the first time that he saw Yamamoto Ikki in this state.

When he looked into Yamamoto Ikki’s eyes for a moment, even though Ma Niu had completed Yamamoto Ikki’s training for him, he couldn’t help but feel a little scared.

It seemed that he was thinking of the fate of his colleagues who had not passed Yamamoto Ikki’s training and failed the assessment.

Yamamoto Ikki’s way of training the special forces is very different from Qin Yangming’s.

Qin Yangming trained the assault platoon. Even if the soldiers selected into the assault platoon failed to pass the training, the worst result would be being transferred out of the assault platoon and returning to the original unit.

But Yamamoto Kazuki is different.

In order to select special forces members who he believes meet the standards, Yamamoto Ikki’s methods can be described as extremely cruel.

There is only one outcome for soldiers who fail to pass the training and assessment and successfully join the special forces!
That means becoming a sparring partner for others and then being beaten to death!
If it weren’t for the fact that the pension given by Yamamoto Ikki was very generous and would definitely be sent to the families of the deceased soldiers.

And Yamamoto Ikki is really very tolerant towards his soldiers in all aspects except training and assessment.

Otherwise, Yamamoto Ikki might be shot in the back by his own people.

However, Ma Niu’s training results were not very good at the beginning, and strictly speaking, he would not have passed the assessment.

But Naihe Ma Niu was very familiar with the bandits’ jargon and had a very high talent for languages.

The dialect that is complicated, difficult to pronounce and extremely hard to learn for others is easy for Ma Niu.

That’s why Yamamoto Ikki made an exception and allowed Ma Niu to join his special forces team and become a scout specializing in reconnaissance.

“The boss!”

Although he was very nervous, Ma Niu still did not forget Scarface’s instructions.

Even though the area had been repeatedly checked and was very safe, Ma Niu still called Yamamoto Ikki the boss.

Yamamoto Ikki nodded with satisfaction when he heard Ma Niu calling him that.

“How is the situation?
Is the idea difficult?

Yamamoto Ikki did not use normal words to ask about the Year of the Horse, but also used slightly modified jargon.

How’s it going?

It was Yamamoto Ikki who was asking Ma Niu whether any ordinary civilians had been found in the village they were responsible for exploring.

Is the idea difficult?
The question was whether any Eighth Route Army sentries had been found in the village.

Hearing Yamamoto Ikki’s question, Ma Niu quickly reported to Yamamoto Ikki the intelligence his reconnaissance team had obtained.

“Boss, the situation in the village ahead is very good.

The idea is not difficult. “

Horse urine’s answer is also slang.

The situation is good, which means that there is no one in the village.

If the horse urine answers that everything goes well.

This means that there are ordinary civilians in the village, but they have all been dealt with and not exposed.

If all goes wrong, it means that the reconnaissance team was discovered by the villagers and failed to successfully eliminate all of them.

If the point is not difficult to find, it means that no Eighth Route Army was found in the village.

“Let’s go to the location of the second reconnaissance team.”

“Everyone, act according to the predetermined plan!”

After receiving the answer from Ma Urine, Yamamoto Ikki quickly gave the order.

Following Yamamoto Ikki’s order, the special forces soldiers who were hiding in the shadows of the hillside like corpses quickly set off and began to move towards the village where Scarface and others were according to the predetermined plan.

The special forces team trained by Yamamoto Ikki did not advance in a swarm as shown in the TV series.

Instead, they deployed scouts in an orderly manner, and then several combat teams took turns to cover their advance.

Only one combat team will be exposed in the open space at a time. Only when all combat teams hide in suitable places again will the leading combat team continue to move forward.

Several combat teams advanced alternately, coordinating seamlessly.

The entire special forces team did not make any loud noise during the march, even in the wilderness.

All the weapons and equipment of the special agents were fixed in place to ensure that they would not collide with each other and make noises due to large movements.

After all, in the middle of the night, there are no other noises to disturb.

The sound of a sudden impact can travel far.

After Yamamoto Ikki saw that the other soldiers in the special forces team had started to move forward, he also began to call on the first combat team he personally led to move forward.

……

White Tiger Ridge.

“Oh my God, what kind of shell is this?
This cannonball is thicker than my thigh!”

Baihu Ridge is located in the warehouse behind the canyon.

Soldiers transferred from the 386th Brigade’s New Recruit Regiment to serve as porters were constantly loading boxes of weapons and ammunition onto trucks or ox carts.

A new recruit who had just been transferred from the district squad to the new recruit regiment for training exclaimed when he saw that there were only two shells in the ammunition box which was half the size of a person. He looked at the two shells in the ammunition box which were not thinner than his thighs at all.

The new recruits of the 386th Brigade also had artillery, but they were just a few 50-something millimeter guns that were captured or photographed by some unknown unit from somewhere, and God knows which arsenal produced them.

If it weren’t for the fact that the gun barrel had its own foreign code and the material of the gun was obviously the alloy steel used by foreign arsenals to make guns.

There are also more than 30 shells. Otherwise, for safety reasons, these cannons will have to be melted down and used as materials.

The recruit regiment had cannons, and the recruits had naturally seen cannons, but the shells of the cannons he had seen were only as thick as his arm.

But the shells he was carrying at this moment were as thick as his thighs!

The recruits began to wonder how big a gun would be needed to use such a large shell.

“Oh my god, the shell is so big, it will definitely smash the Japanese artillery tower with one shot.”

Looking at the shells in front of him, the recruit couldn’t help but start to guess the power of the shells.

“Smash it open?

No, no, no, this one shell is enough to raze the Japanese artillery tower to the ground!”

Qin Yangming came to the back to check the logistical preparations, especially the ammunition preparations. He listened to what the recruits said and directly explained to them the power of the artillery shells in front of them.

The shells in front of the recruits were not any other shells, but the shells from the Krupp 105mm large-caliber howitzer that the system gave to Qin Yangming!
This time, in order to eliminate the Japanese Fourth Brigade as quickly as possible, the boss invested a lot of money.

It’s not just about handing over the headquarters heavy artillery regiment to Qin Yangming for use.

He generously allocated thirty shells for each cannon…

Of course, the reason why Qin Yangming was only given thirty shells for each cannon was because the boss knew that the vanguard regiment still had a lot of shells, and there was no need to consume the headquarters’ emergency stockpile for the time being.

The recruit heard a strong voice behind him and turned around subconsciously.

“Captain Qin!”

After seeing the person behind him, the recruit shouted excitedly.

Although he was not a soldier of the vanguard regiment, Qin Yangming’s reputation was still very loud among the Eighth Route Army.

Especially not long ago, Qin Yangming led a battalion of troops to fight head-on with a field regiment of the Japanese in the Shangdang area.

A battalion of troops was used to annihilate an entire regiment of the Japanese invaders!
This battle directly made the name Qin Yangming extremely famous in the Shangdang area.

Especially in Shangdang area, many young people learned that Qin Yangming had fought head-on with a battalion of the Japanese field regiment.

He also showed great enthusiasm for joining the Eighth Route Army.

How does the saying go?

If you hadn’t joined the army, you would have seen me as a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky.

If you join the army, then seeing me will be like a mayfly seeing the sky!
Before joining the Eighth Route Army, those young people only knew that Qin Yangming led a battalion of troops to fight against a field regiment of the Japanese and wiped out the enemy.

After joining the Eighth Route Army, you can get more information about Qin Yangming.

For example, they used the strength of a battalion to block the attack of a Japanese brigade, defeated the brigade and forced it to flee, and also killed two Japanese generals!
After these young men joined the army and learned about Qin Yangming’s military achievements, countless of them wanted to join the Vanguard Corps!
A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier.

There is relatively nothing wrong with this statement.

Who of those who voluntarily join the army does not do so with the idea of ​​making themselves stronger so that they can be better at killing the Japanese?

Since you are a soldier, you must be the strongest soldier and join the strongest unit!

The Eighth Route Army is stronger than the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, so join the Eighth Route Army!
The Eighth Route Army Vanguard Corps is the most powerful, so join the Vanguard Corps!
For the new recruits of the 386th Brigade, all of them trained very hard just so that they could directly join Qin Yangming’s vanguard regiment after the training was completed and the troops were divided!
But it’s not easy to join Qin Yangming’s vanguard group.

Even the 386th Brigade used the soldiers trained by the new recruits to assign them to the vanguard regiment.

Qin Yangming still placed those soldiers in the recruit camp for training.

Only soldiers who have passed the training can officially join the several main battalions of the Vanguard Regiment.

If the training does not meet the standards, or if there are any small tricks.

Then there is only one ending waiting for these people, go back to where they came from, or enter the Pioneer Group Mule and Horse Market, the logistics team…

As for the cooking class…

Sorry, you didn’t pass the training and are not even qualified to join the kitchen team.

The soldiers in the kitchen squad are basically those who are unable to engage in high-intensity combat after some of the main forces were injured, or those who are unable to engage in normal combat but still have a certain amount of strength and are unwilling to leave the troops.

For example, those in the kitchen who carry the big pot.

Many of them were originally machine gunners of the Vanguard Regiment.

After being injured on the battlefield, either their shoulders could not carry anything, or their leg bones were injured and their bodies could not bear the weight of the machine gun for long-distance marches.

The recruit looked at Qin Yangming in front of him and asked him excitedly.

“Captain Qin, can I join the Vanguard Battalion?
I have great strength, you see!”

The new recruit directly asked Qin Yangming if he could join the vanguard regiment, and at the same time picked up a cannonball with one hand to show Qin Yangming how strong he was.

“I heard that if you join the Vanguard Group, you can get a gun… Dad, Mom, and sister, when I get the gun, I can kill the Japanese and avenge you!”
