Chapter 73 The Shocking 2nd Division
Chapter 73 The Shocking Second Division
At dusk, at the foot of Mount Kumotake.
"Mr. Chen, those Japanese soldiers still won't let us get close to the quarantine zone."
A short-haired young man helplessly recounted the current situation to Chen Yuansheng, who was holding a camera and appeared to be a reporter.
Both men were Chinese. The short-haired young man was named Li Wang, and he was an unofficial employee of the Tokyo branch of Ta Kung Pao.
Chen Yuansheng came from the Ta Kung Pao newspaper during the Republic of China era. He was a reporter dispatched by Ta Kung Pao to cover the Yunqushan incident.
"These Japanese devils are really barbaric and domineering."
Reporter Chen frowned as he said that he had no choice but to abandon his plan to investigate more news about Yunqu Mountain.
At this moment, the short-haired youth Li Wang frowned and said, "I don't know what these Japanese devils are doing. They first blow up the trees and then throw gasoline on fire."
This created a firewall covering hundreds of kilometers; even someone with so much money to burn shouldn't have done this.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuansheng pondered for a moment and said, "There must be something fishy going on. Recently, the Japanese military has developed a super soldier drug."
Their super soldiers committed numerous horrific atrocities in Northeast China.
The reason for this commotion is perhaps that their super soldiers went out of control.
As he spoke, Chen Yuansheng revealed a mocking expression, pleased that the island nation's government was reaping the consequences of its own actions.
"I hope so. These Japanese devils are no good. They're a bunch of beasts. It would be best if they all died."
As he spoke, the short-haired youth, Li Wang, revealed a hateful look in his eyes.
After all, he had been treated coldly and bullied a lot during his years in Tokyo, and he didn't have much affection for the people of the island nation.
Suddenly, the sound of intense gunfire erupted in the distance.
The gunfire was extremely intense, suggesting a fierce and terrifying exchange of fire.
"What's going on?"
The short-haired youth and Chen Yuansheng looked at each other, wondering what was going on.
However, Chen Yuansheng was, after all, a reporter, so he turned to the short-haired youth and said, "Let's go take a look and see what they're doing."
As he spoke, Chen Yuansheng took out a monocular telescope, which was specially approved for him by Ta Kung Pao.
"They're already exchanging fire. We'd better stay here."
Li Wang quickly shook his head and tried to persuade him.
Why risk your life for such a small amount of money? What if you get killed by a stray bullet near the battlefield?
"Then you can stay here."
After saying this, Chen Yuansheng ran over with his camera and binoculars.
Besides Chen Yuansheng, there were other fearless journalists who did the same.
However, there are not many journalists who are not afraid of death. Out of hundreds of journalists from various countries, only a mere 6 dared to do so.
On the front lines, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Li Ke slowly walked toward the command post, which was naturally noticed by the island nation's army.
Then the deafening roar of artillery and machine guns erupted, turning the area where Li Ke was located into a living hell.
"Is he/she dead?"
Seishiro Itagaki, who held the rank of captain and was in charge of leading the 4th Regiment in interception and defense missions in this area, frowned as he spoke.
-
At this time, he was not yet the famous Japanese general who would later orchestrate the September 18 Incident; he was merely a junior commander.
"It's definitely going to be a complete disaster. Under such saturation fire, even a warship would be torn to pieces."
Itagaki Seishiro's adjutant spoke with a confident expression.
After all, this round of artillery fire included not only the artillery of their 4th Regiment, but also artillery fire from other regiments.
There was even heavy artillery support from the 2nd Division. With such dense artillery fire, even ships would not be able to withstand it.
"We must not be careless."
Itagaki Seishiro spoke in a deep voice, then ordered, "Be on high alert! We must do everything in our power to prevent the enemy from escaping the Kumotori Mountain area, or we will all have to commit seppuku!"
"Hi!"
Upon receiving the order, the soldiers of the 4th Regiment took cover behind their bunkers, aiming their guns at the area being bombarded.
Amidst this, as a gentle breeze stirred up the dissipating dust, a figure slowly emerged from the dust-shrouded area.
The soldiers of the 4th Regiment's pupils contracted when they saw the man, whose clothes were only slightly dirty at the hem and had no signs of damage.
"How is this possible?! With so many guns providing saturation coverage, there are also divisional 120mm howitzers assisting in the attack."
How could he still be alive? And he doesn't seem to have suffered any serious injuries?
The adjutant exclaimed in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief.
However, Itagaki Seishiro lived up to his reputation as the future army general who planned the Mukden Incident.
After the initial shock, he quickly recovered and said in a deep voice, "Shoot! Kill him!"
"Da da da————"
As Itagaki Seishiro roared, a barrage of gunfire and artillery fire erupted at the scene.
In fact, in addition to the 4th Regiment firing its guns, other regiments were also firing their guns and cannons, while the heavy artillery of the 2nd Division roared in response.
However, as the gunfire erupted, Li Ke vanished from his spot in an instant, causing the soldiers present to gasp in surprise.
"So fast!"
Soldiers with keen eyesight and slightly better dynamic vision can only see a blur.
Soldiers with slightly poorer dynamic vision could see nothing at all and completely lost track of Li Ke.
This is solely due to the physical attributes of an Upper Moon demon, coupled with the water-walking technique, which is most adept at unleashing sudden attacks.
Finally, coupled with the complex environment and terrain, the result was that Li Ke disappeared from their sight.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
As Li Ke disappeared, he flicked out a series of tiny black shadows from his hand, each shadow shooting towards a soldier's body.
These are specially made pointed lead bullets with a pointed tip and a stern. When they are fired, they produce white mist and a loud bang.
Clearly, its flight speed has reached supersonic speed.
The faster the speed, the more terrifying the kinetic energy!
The pointed stern bullets, spanning hundreds of meters, either created terrifying cavities in the soldiers' bodies or pierced them instantly.
Those who were pierced through the body on the spot were lucky; those whose bodies were hollowed out by the bullets were even more terrifying.
The reason was that those scattered lead fragments would dig deep into their flesh, causing them not only excruciating pain but also effectively sealing their fate.
Because even small pieces of lead can travel through the bloodstream to the heart and brain, death is inevitable.
Therefore, rather than suffering through the pain and eventually dying, it is actually better to bleed to death or die suddenly from severe injuries now than to suffer the pain later.
The horrific state of these soldiers naturally caused the soldiers of the 2nd Division to shrink their pupils and show fear on their faces.
"What exactly is going on?"
Why couldn't a single bullet hit it?
Not a single shell fragment could hit it?!
Seishiro Itagaki was deeply shocked, his face showing disbelief.
He had seen ghosts before; after all, Yamagata Arihiro had done it in front of them, the junior officers, to boost the morale of the island nation's military.
It showcases the "super soldier's" powerful self-healing ability, immense strength, agile speed, and eerie blood demon magic.
But those "super soldiers," while powerful, are still understandable and can be killed.
What exactly is this monster in front of us?
Is this scientifically sound?!
