Chapter 462 Helping Old Zheng Break Through.
After Bai Luo retreated to the roof of a wooden house a few dozen meters away from the hotel entrance.
Bai Luo immediately retrieved his Type 192 short assault rifle and gas mask from his personal space.
He doesn't have time to put on bulletproof vests or anything like that now.
After putting on his gas mask, Bai Luo took out a detonator and pressed the detonation button.
"Boom."
The instant Bai Luo pressed the detonation button, a loud explosion echoed from the street in front of the hotel.
In an instant, the bodies of the four Japanese soldiers closest to the explosion's epicenter, who were facing away from the remote-controlled bomb, were torn apart by the explosion.
Fragments of severed limbs were flying everywhere.
The explosion of the remote-controlled bomb also blew open the outer shell of the poison gas bomb.
The shockwave, carrying fragments of the spent cartridge cases, knocked more than ten unsuspecting Japanese spies to the ground.
They let out painful screams. Two unlucky Japanese spies even had their heads blown off.
However, something that left Bai Luo speechless happened because the remote-controlled bomb had an excessively powerful explosion.
The toxic fumes from the gas bomb were also carried away by the shockwave and spread outwards.
However, due to the overwhelming force of the shockwave, the poison gas bomb failed to produce the intended effect.
Bai Luo could only hear the screams of the wounded Japanese spies and a violent coughing fit, but he did not hear any shouts from the Japanese soldiers who had noticed the poison gas.
"Tsk tsk tsk, those Japanese poison gas bombs aren't very effective either. I should have used a couple more."
Seeing that the poison gas bomb had not worked as intended, Bai Luo muttered something under his breath.
Matsuyama Ikuya was also startled by the sudden explosion behind him, and at the same time, he smelled a pungent odor, causing him to involuntarily sniffle.
At that moment, he had no idea that it smelled like poison gas; he only thought that the smoke from the explosion was choking him.
So Songshan Shi couldn't help but cough twice and then looked at the explosion site more than 20 meters away.
Upon seeing the location of the explosion, Matsuyama Ikuya immediately had a guess in his mind, so he shouted.
"Hurry, rescue the wounded! This bomb must have been planted by the enemy upstairs. Squad 2, go and help Squad 1 immediately. I want them to pay with their lives for the Empire's warriors!"
"Hi!"
Upon hearing Matsuyama Ishiya's words, a Japanese spy not far away immediately waved to several other Japanese spies around him and then rushed into the hotel.
Zheng Xian and his group also noticed the commotion outside the inn.
"Captain? What's going on? Do we have any reinforcements?"
Li Qi, whose arm was injured, glanced quickly downstairs before turning his head back down.
He looked hopefully at Zheng Xian, who was dealing with the Japanese attack.
"Impossible, none of the people we brought are here. It's possible that something happened to the Japanese soldiers outside."
Moreover, even if someone were to attack the Japanese soldiers outside, they wouldn't be our people; whether they're friend or foe is another matter entirely.
"Captain, we're surrounded by the Japanese from behind. What should we do?"
Xiao Yu answered Li Qi's question, and she looked somewhat dejected.
She felt that this time, the chances of them being killed were slim.
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Li Qi's expression froze for a moment.
Then, without a word, he leaned out and fired to suppress the Japanese spies at the entrance of the building.
After hearing Xiao Yu's words, Zheng Xian agreed with Xiao Yu's guess.
Although the explosion outside had given him a glimmer of hope.
But as the team leader for this operation, he knew exactly how many people had come.
Aside from those three, it's still the action team.
The team of more than 10 people is currently hiding in the suburbs.
Even if they heard the explosion here, it would be impossible for them to get to this area in such a short time.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xian was also racking his brains for a solution.
After going through all his thoughts, Zheng Xian slowly spoke to the two of them.
"Xiao Yu, Li Qi, listen up. I'll break out on my own. You two should try to escape. If you can't escape, make sure you don't get captured alive by the Japanese soldiers, especially you, Xiao Yu. Do you understand?"
"Brother Zheng, wow, you still have to lead everyone to complete the mission!"
Upon hearing this, Li Qi immediately retorted.
"Your arm is injured, what good will it do you go? The captain is right, I can't let the Japanese soldiers capture me alive, I'll use myself to distract them..."
"Shut up, all of you! I'm the captain, listen to my orders! You must do your best to break through!"
After saying this, Zheng didn't wait for their response.
After loading the last full magazine, he charged out.
"team leader!"
"team leader!"
Zheng Xian rushed out of the room and quickly opened fire to suppress the Japanese soldiers at the entrance of the corridor. At the same time, he took out the only grenade he had and threw it into the group of Japanese soldiers downstairs.
The aim was to inflict maximum casualties on the Japanese soldiers, creating an opportunity for Li Qi and his men behind them to break through.
"Bang bang bang... Boom!"
As the grenade exploded, several Japanese soldiers below, who had no time to react, were knocked to the ground by Zheng Xian's grenade.
They lay motionless on the ground, while the Japanese soldiers who were a little further away were more or less affected by the shrapnel from the grenade.
Suddenly, a series of mournful cries came from below.
Songshan Shi also didn't expect that the Blue Party members above would have grenades.
Seeing the casualties among his men, he was so angry that he lay on the spot yelling.
After throwing the grenades, Zheng Xian had no time to check the casualties of the Japanese soldiers below.
At that moment, he pulled the trigger while drawing the short knife hidden at his waist.
He had two bullets left in his pistol, but he was less than two meters away from the entrance to the stairwell where the Japanese soldiers were hiding.
What Zheng Xian didn't know was that his fearless demeanor had already been seen by Bai Luo, who was dozens of meters away.
"Hey, it really is Old Zheng. But every time I see him, he's surrounded and being beaten by Japanese soldiers. Tsk tsk tsk, what luck. I'll have to stay away from him from now on."
Despite her complaints, Bai Luo had already aimed her assault rifle at the stairwell entrance where Zheng Xian was attacking.
Through the gap in the railing, he aimed the scope at the head of a Japanese soldier whose back was pressed against the wall of the stairwell.
"puff."
With a barely perceptible gunshot, the muzzle of Bai Luo's 192 short assault rifle, equipped with a silencer, twitched slightly.
The next moment, a burst of blood erupted from the head of the Japanese soldier hiding at the entrance of the stairwell.
Then he collapsed to the ground and landed on the stairs.
The Japanese spies behind him were all stunned by what they saw.
I don't understand where the bullet came from.
However, before they could react, Zheng Xian, who was not suppressed by the Japanese soldiers at the front, had already appeared at the entrance of the building.
He fired the last two bullets from his pistol at the Japanese spies crammed into the stairwell.
"Bang, bang. Crack."
After two gunshots, the two Japanese soldiers fell to the ground.
Zheng Xian also raised his pistol, which was already empty of bullets, and smashed it at the Japanese soldiers below who were still in a daze.
The next moment, the head of a Japanese spy made intimate contact with the empty pistol.
"Boom."
A loud tapping sound, like a ripe watermelon being tapped, rang in the ears of the Japanese spies crammed into the stairwell.
The Japanese spy who had caught the pistol steadily with his head was also knocked off balance by the impact.
My head is buzzing.
"Hey, he's out of bullets! Quick, rush up and grab him!"
Upon seeing what had smashed into his comrade's head, the captain of the Japanese 2nd platoon, who had just rushed up, immediately shouted excitedly.
He gestured to his men to capture him alive.
At that moment, Zheng Xian raised his short knife and prepared to rush over.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
But as soon as he made a move, he heard the rapid firing of two pistols beside him.
The visitors were Xiao Yu and Li Qi.
