Chapter 7: Anguo County Brigade
"Report to the squad leader, this villager claims that he single-handedly killed all the little devils from that squad in the village!" The soldier who had just spoken with Li Guotao quickly approached, saluted in a somewhat informal manner, and said loudly
He shot a few people, grabbed a knife, and then hacked them one by one!" Li Guotao said casually
At that moment, a sound of footsteps was heard again from outside the courtyard. Several soldiers armed with guns strode in, and the leader, who had a box pistol at his waist and wore a cap of the Eighth Route Army, although dressed in ordinary civilian clothes, still bore a slight resemblance to a soldier of the Eighth Route Army.
Another soldier nodded, turned around, and ran out. At that moment, the soldier turned to Li Guotao and said, "By the way, brother, were those little devils who died in the village all killed by you?"
"No!" the soldier quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. What I mean is that you alone can kill more than fifty little devils; you are simply a god! A war god!" At this point, the soldier raised his thumb in admiration.
What do you want to do?" Li Guotao looked at the captain with a wary expression
The warrior turned to another warrior and said, "You go notify the captain immediately, just tell him that two fellow villagers have been found here, and ask him to come over."
What kind of people are these! Li Guotao couldn't help but mutter to himself. At that moment, the captain pounced over like a hungry wolf that had spotted a lamb. Not only was Li Guotao startled, but even Bai Wei, who was engulfed in sorrow beside him, was taken aback. She raised her head and cast an annoyed glance at the captain, then turned back to continue wiping her tears.
Li Guotao merely smiled slightly; for him, a super special forces soldier known as the King of Soldiers, this was hardly anything. At that moment, Li Guotao suddenly noticed that Bai Wei was no longer staring blankly at her father's corpse. She turned her head and looked at Li Guotao with a dazed expression, as if lost in thought. Li Guotao quickly asked, "Miss Bai, what is the matter with you?"
Li Guotao merely nodded slightly and did not say anything. At this moment, Bai Wei, seeing that the danger had passed, walked over to her father's corpse and sat down on the ground. However, at this time, Bai Wei did not cry; she simply stared blankly at the corpse of Bai Langzhong.
Li Guotao smiled slightly and extended his hand to shake hands with the captain. The captain chuckled and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Chang De, the captain of the Eighth Route Army's Anguo County Brigade. Due to my loud voice, I am nicknamed 'Chang the Horn'!"
This brother is joking, we are really not bandits, we are the anti-Japanese troops. Moreover, the people of Huaxia do not fight against each other, brother, please put down your gun!
Is it really that simple? the captain asked with a look of doubt on his face
Li Guotao thought for a moment. At that time, the Eighth Route Army was extremely impoverished. Not to mention that the Anguo County Brigade was not even a main force, even the main forces of the Eighth Route Army could not guarantee that everyone was able to wear military uniforms; otherwise, they would not have been referred to as the local Eighth Route Army. Reflecting on this, Li Guotao finally lowered his gun and casually asked, "How did you end up here?"
Li Guotao, who fears neither heaven nor earth, felt a chill run down his spine under the gaze of these few individuals and could not help but take a step back
"So how did you manage to do it?" the captain continued to ask
Then what about the rest of you? https://wwwhetushu.com.com" The soldier continued to ask.
"Are you even human?" the soldier said, swallowing hard, with a look of shock on his face
Changde smiled slightly, "I beg your pardon for my boldness, which part does Brother Li belong to?"
"What? Are you saying that you killed all those little devils by yourself? That was an entire squad of devils!" The soldier's eyes widened in disbelief, his mouth agape as if it could fit a duck egg.
"I am referring to those who fought alongside you against the enemy, right?" said the soldier, furrowing his brow
"Others? What others? I just took a walk around the village and didn't find a single survivor. It seems that there are only the two of us left in the entire village now!" Li Guotao sighed as he spoke
Hey! How can you speak like that!" Li Guotao said with a displeased expression
Ah! It's nothing. Bai Wei shook her head awkwardly and quickly turned her head away. Upon seeing her father's tragic state, two streams of hot tears could not help but roll down her cheeks again
The captain lowered his head, lost in thought. In fact, he had already examined the scene earlier. Judging from the methods of killing, it indeed seemed like the work of a single individual, at most two individuals—one shooter and one knifer. Now, upon hearing Li Guotao's words, the captain had no more doubts and was certain that the one who had killed those Japanese devils was the person before him.
It's that simple! Li Guotao replied casually
The captain's pair of large eyes circled around Li Guotao several times, and then he stepped forward and extended a hand towards Li Guotao
Li Guotao nodded gently and said, "Indeed, it was us who killed them"
"This brother, please remain calm, we are the Eighth Route Army An Guo County Brigade," the man said hastily
Just now, I saw those little devils who were shot dead; they either had bullets in their chests or were shot directly in the head. Such precise marksmanship, Brother Li wouldn't say you haven't served in the military, would he? As for those little devils who were killed with knives, they all died with a single stroke. The knife skills were swift and decisive, clearly indicating that they are practiced fighters. It seems that your identity is not simple, my brother!" Changde said while holding onto Li Guotao's hand and chuckling.
What did you say? The captain's voice is inherently loud, and in shock, this shout reached a staggering 180 decibels
"Aren't there just over fifty little devils? What's the big deal?" Li Guotao said with a dismissive expression, curling his lip.
"This nickname is quite fitting! I am Li Guotao," Li Guotao said with a smile
The captain's eyes radiated excitement as he circled around Li Guotao several times, his gaze fixed intently on Li Guotao as he asked, "You mean to say that you killed all those little devils by yourself!"
"Which part?" Li Guotao said with a puzzled expression
"What a talent! Absolutely a talent!" The captain exclaimed with a thumbs up, his face filled with admiration. The few people who accompanied the captain nodded in agreement, but their gazes towards Li Guotao were somewhat strange, as if they were looking at a monster.
"So what?" Li Guotao retorted
"Are you going to kill the Japanese with me? Am I the only one? Where are the others?" Li Guotao replied casually
We listened to the report from the villagers, stating that the Japanese had arrived at Xiaozhang Village. Soon after, a series of dense gunfire was heard from Xiaozhang Village, indicating that something must have gone wrong here. Therefore, we hurried over, but to our dismay, we still arrived too late. These despicable little devils are simply worse than beasts," said the soldier, clenching his fist with a face full of grief and indignation
"The Eighth Route Army?" Li Guotao couldn't help but frown, "Why do they dress like beggars? I thought they were bandits."
