It made him very uncomfortable. He had used too much force just now, and this slash had landed heavily on the hillside, leaving a mark.

What Captain Kazuo Miyuki wanted to cut wasn't the footprint on the hillside, but the person who had just jumped away from that footprint.

In this way, the command sword in his hand could no longer parry the spear thrust by Company Commander Hua. Captain Kazuo Miyuki could only watch helplessly as Company Commander Hua thrust his spear.

It pierced through his chest, the cold bayonet stabbing into his hot chest. Captain Kazuo Miyuki only felt a pain in his heart, followed by something like an angina attack.

The pain became unbearable. He dropped the command sword in his hand, his knees weakened, and he knelt on the ground, kneeling before Company Commander Hua.

His action surprised Company Commander Hua. This was truly a rare sight for him: he had fought the Japanese with bayonets on the battlefield countless times, yet today he had encountered Japanese soldiers who knelt down after being stabbed.

In fact, this was the nature of the Japanese. This was their way of survival as a people: if they couldn't win, they joined.

The crueler they were to the weak, the more humble they were to the strong!

Company Commander Hua had never considered sparing the Japanese. Even if this Japanese soldier knelt before him begging for mercy, Company Commander Hua still pulled out his bayonet and delivered a fatal blow to the Japanese soldier's throat, ensuring that even a Daluo Jinxian (powerful Taoist immortal) couldn't save him before he stopped.

After Company Commander Hua stabbed Captain Kazuo Miyuki to death, he saw that there wasn't a single Japanese soldier standing on the entire battlefield.

He immediately ordered, "Retreat to the trenches immediately!"

They began to pick up the weapons and ammunition dropped by the Japanese soldiers and quickly retreated from the battlefield, returning to the trenches to continue waiting for the next wave of Japanese attacks.

At the foot of the mountain, Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara watched as his company was enveloped in smoke after the bombing.

He could hear the sounds of fighting and screams coming from that area.

At this moment, the Japanese soldiers of the entire Uehara Battalion forgot to maintain fire suppression on the top of the mountain. They all widened their eyes, trying to see through the smoke and see what was happening on the battlefield.

When the mountain breeze slowly blew, dispersing the smoke that enveloped the area, the thousands of Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain discovered that the more than one hundred soldiers of Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company, who had been charging vigorously towards the top of the mountain, were no longer standing.

Many Japanese soldiers were lying on the hillside between thirty and fifty meters in front of the Chinese defense line. Although it was impossible to count the exact number of bodies from the foot of the mountain,

the Japanese soldiers of the entire Uehara Battalion believed that the entire company of Captain Kazuo Miyuki had fallen there.

At this moment, the machine guns of the Chinese army on the top of the mountain also stopped firing. The entire battlefield suddenly became eerily silent.

Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara could even hear his own heartbeat. He could feel the fear in the hearts of the Japanese soldiers around him.

Although Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara was beginning to feel afraid, the mountain was still above them, and they had to seize this position.

There was no way to avoid this mountain top. Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara could only order, "Captain Eita Sakaekura! Continue your attack!"

"Hai!" Captain Eita Sakaekura stood at attention and accepted the order.

He had also seen everything that had happened on the hillside just now and felt that he was already familiar with the defenders' tactics. This time, he wouldn't make the same mistake.

After receiving the order, he immediately commanded, "Everyone! Advance!" There was still some distance to the top of the mountain from this position. Captain Eita Sakaekura took the lead, charging at the front of the entire company.

What had happened to Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company had had a huge impact on the Japanese soldiers of the entire battalion. The courage in their hearts had been greatly diminished.

Sergeant Yosuke Kato suppressed the fear in his heart and followed the team towards the top of the mountain, trembling. In fact, he didn't want to go forward to attack anymore, but Captain Eita Sakaekura was personally charging at the front of the team.

No matter how unwilling the Japanese soldiers of the entire company were, they had to follow. Otherwise, they would be subject to battlefield discipline! At that time, they would still be forced to charge at the front of the team.

The scene of the entire Sakaekura Eita Company charging made Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara somewhat displeased. He could see that the morale of this company when it set out was completely different from the morale of Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company when it set out.

The team that was setting out now looked like they were going to die. Every Japanese soldier had a dejected look on their face. Where was the slightest hint of positive emotion?

What could Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara do now? A full company had been completely wiped out by the Chinese army on the top of the mountain in a few minutes, using some unknown method.

What he could do now was still the same as last time, ordering the machine guns and heavy machine guns of the entire battalion to fire at the top of the mountain, suppressing any possible strafing from the top of the mountain.

However, the Japanese soldiers' shooting was completely futile. After Company Commander Hua Wuque led the team back to the trenches, he once again ordered the soldiers to hide.

He only left a few observation posts on the defense line and didn't fire at the Japanese soldiers at all. This time, Company Commander Su Bufang and his soldiers no longer had the uneasy feeling they had last time.

These soldiers squatted in the trenches. Some were showing off the command swords they had just captured from the Japanese soldiers, while others were giving a lively account of their heroic deeds in the recent bayonet fight.

Company Commander Hua only asked the soldiers to hide and didn't ask them to be silent. These soldiers had all charged out in the previous battle, wielding knives, fighting, and seeing blood.

When it came to heroic deeds! Who didn't have a few? Even if they were unlucky and weren't assigned a Japanese soldier to fight, they had still seen the bravery of the company commander when he stabbed two Japanese soldiers in a row on the battlefield.

Therefore, every soldier on this defense line had a story to share. The more these soldiers shared their heroic deeds on the battlefield, the more excited and excited they became.

Looking at the expressions on these soldiers' faces, Company Commander Su Bufang was also very excited. It had been several years since he had seen such expressions on the faces of his men.

Only a few years ago, after they had fought the Guangxi Army with fewer troops and won more battles, had such expressions appeared on the soldiers' faces. Company Commander Su could feel that the morale of his team was rising.

Every soldier had the idea that the Japanese were not scary, and that they would definitely win the next battle. It goes without saying how important the belief in victory was in the team.

The Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain began to attack again. The Japanese machine guns and heavy machine guns roared wildly, and bullets kept hitting the edge of the trenches, with the splashed dirt occasionally falling on the bodies and faces of the soldiers who were talking animatedly.

These soldiers just casually patted off the dirt, completely ignoring the Japanese attack, and continued to tell their stories.

Company Commander Su excitedly said to Company Commander Hua Wuque, "Company Commander Hua! Your move was really beautiful! Just now, with one raid, we wiped out an entire company of Japanese soldiers. Not a single Japanese soldier escaped. This is a great victory!"

Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "It was the result of the joint efforts of the soldiers. If it were just me alone, even if my whole body was made of steel, I wouldn't be able to drive in a few nails or kill a few Japanese soldiers.

Fighting the Japanese is actually not difficult. First of all, the Japanese are not scary. They are also living things and will also die.

Secondly, the Japanese are not bad in combat strength. In fact, compared to some of our teams, their combat strength is even stronger.

Only when we correctly recognize this point and give full play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses can we win against the Japanese."

Company Commander Su Bufang asked in surprise, "Wasn't it very easy for us to fight the Japanese just now? Why do you say that the Japanese are still not bad in combat strength?"

Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "You only saw the Japanese army being completely annihilated, but you didn't notice one thing: the Japanese were first bombed by directional mines.

In this case, none of the attacking Japanese soldiers ran away or retreated. They were still able to raise their guns and stab at the soldiers who charged up to them.

If we changed the roles of both sides, how many of our teams would be able to organize a counterattack when suddenly attacked?"

After listening to these words, Company Commander Su thought silently, "My team can't do what the Japanese can do, and there's not a single team in the Fourth War Zone that can do that.

It seems that it's really not unjust for us to have been defeated by the Japanese some time ago. Although we were caught off guard by the Japanese, our morale and the will of our soldiers were actually worse than the Japanese."

Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "Your firepower is actually not bad compared to the Japanese, and may even be stronger than the Japanese. The difference lies in combat will.

If the officers don't have the determination to fight and the awareness to die, and the soldiers don't have the confidence to fight to the death and the belief in victory, then they won't dare to fight the Japanese to the end."

Company Commander Su's face was a little red. He himself was afraid of death and really didn't want to die.

Company Commander Hua saw what he was thinking and said with a smile, "Who's not afraid of death? I'm also afraid! But on the battlefield, especially when fighting the Japanese, the more afraid you are, the faster you die.

Just like our defense line just now, if we had run away when the Japanese charged up, with nearly four hundred people in the two companies, how many people do you think we would have lost if we had run away?"

Company Commander Hua was experienced in running away and said without thinking, "The casualties and capture would have reduced the number of people by at least one hundred. In fact, the feeling of running away is not good. When running away, you are afraid, panicked, short of breath, and your feet and hands are weak, and you simply can't take steps and can't run fast."

Hearing this, he suddenly understood: if he used the cost of one hundred and fifty casualties to fight the Japanese head-on, he could fight down a company of Japanese soldiers.

Seeing the look of sudden realization on Company Commander Su's face, Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "Have you figured it out?"

"I've figured it out. Running away doesn't sound good, and wherever you go, you'll be known as a defeated general, and the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties. It's really better to stand firm, even if the casualties are greater, after repelling the Japanese, you'll gain both fame and wealth!" Company Commander Su's expression clearly showed some regret.

Company Commander Hua advised, "It's good to know what to do in the future. Let the past be the past!"

Company Commander Su finally understood that Company Commander Hua was teaching him how to lead troops to fight. He quickly asked, "Brother Hua! I saw that your movements were very decisive and neat when you were fighting the Japanese with bayonets just now.

Your soldiers are also the same, their movements are decisive and their lethality is particularly great. Is it the unique skill of your special forces brigade?"

There was one sentence he didn't ask: Can you teach me!

Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "This was taught by Brigade Commander Lin. It's just a few simple technical moves, but you have to practice a lot. If you want to learn, I'll tell you about the basic movements first.

When we get to the battlefield later, I'll give you a demonstration. This assassination technique is easy to learn, but difficult to master.

It's not difficult, but you just have to practice every day, and it'll be easy to learn. Our team has half an hour of assassination training every morning."

Hearing Company Commander Hua say this, Company Commander Su Bufang finally understood, "I was just saying, how come your soldiers all make one move at a time when they fight the Japanese with knives, and the Japanese don't even have the strength to parry.

I also killed a Japanese soldier just now, but it took me three rounds to kill the Japanese soldier."

Hearing that Company Commander Hua was going to teach the assassination technique, all the subordinates near Company Commander Su gathered around. Company Commander Hua didn't hide anything and began to explain in the trenches, from the ready position to the forward stab, lunge, retreat, and thrust, all explained.

There weren't many moves, and they were finished in a while. Company Commander Hua said, "We have a slogan during training: Sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime.

Practice more in peacetime, and after going to the battlefield, you will immediately know how to fight back no matter where the Japanese's bayonet comes from. In addition, when you go to the battlefield, three soldiers form a combat team. Whether you're fighting one Japanese soldier with bayonets or three Japanese soldiers with bayonets, it's still three people.

Three people can take care of each other, which is much more advantageous on the battlefield than one person fighting alone."

In order to pass on his combat skills to these brothers, Company Commander Hua was really attentive. In the literacy learning class every night in the Special Forces Brigade, the instructors always conveyed the principles of the anti-Japanese united front to everyone.

For every point the Chinese become stronger, the Japanese become weaker. Company Commander Hua certainly hoped that Company Commander Su and the others, who were directly fighting the Japanese, would become stronger.

Battalion Commander Yosuke at the foot of the mountain became more and more puzzled: When the previous attack by Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company attacked, the defenders on the top of the mountain still had artillery to bombard his machine guns and heavy machine guns.

This time, they didn't even have artillery bombardment, and not a single bullet was fired from the top of the mountain, and not a single defender could be seen.

Unseen danger is what the Japanese fear most. Captain Eita Sakaekura, who was charging towards the top of the mountain, was also muttering to himself at this time.

They had traveled more than half the way, and had not encountered any resistance. Were the defenders on the top of the mountain still there?

Of course, Captain Eita Sakaekura now hoped that the defenders had retreated: it was the first time he didn't want to encounter the Chinese army.

In the past, these Japanese soldiers were always afraid that the Chinese army would retreat, that they wouldn't be able to find opponents on the battlefield and wouldn't be able to make meritorious service.

Today was different. Captain Eita Sakaekura didn't want to make meritorious service. He just wanted to live. The encounter with Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company just now had really frightened him.

But now the situation of his company was almost the same as the encounter of Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company just now, it was completely a mirror image!

Both companies did not encounter any attacks during the advance, and smoothly rushed to near the top of the mountain, and then suffered a devastating blow.

Squad Leader Miyazaki Takuumi's thoughts were similar. He always felt that the battlefield was terribly quiet now, and that there must be a conspiracy of the defenders hidden in the middle.

But what kind of conspiracy the defenders had, he didn't know. He only knew that there was a conspiracy, but he couldn't find any evidence.

Without evidence, these Japanese soldiers could only continue to charge upwards. Captain Eita Sakaekura had once again issued the order: "Advance!"

This was a superfluous order, just because the hillside was too quiet, there were only the footsteps and gasps of the Japanese soldiers climbing the mountain. The company commander wanted to break the silence with the orders he issued.

But this didn't have much effect. There were only the footsteps and gasps of the Japanese soldiers on the entire hillside. Even the sound of Battalion Commander Yosuke Uehara ordering the Japanese soldiers' machine guns and heavy machine guns to fire at the foot of the mountain had stopped.

Those Japanese machine gunners had been firing non-stop for ten minutes, but they had neither found a target nor provoked any counterattacks. The defenders ignored them, and the machine gunners felt bored and slowly stopped firing.

All the remaining Japanese soldiers in the battalion were watching Captain Eita Sakaekura's company that was attacking, to see if they could smoothly rush to the top of the mountain, or if they would die on the hillside for no apparent reason like Captain Kazuo Miyuki's company just now.

The Japanese soldiers had charged half the way. Company Commander Su asked, "How should we fight the Japanese this time?"

Company Commander Hua said with a smile, "If you don't change, you'll change everything. This time, we'll still bomb first and then fight. Although the routine is old, it's the routine that can kill the Japanese soldiers."

Company Commander Su asked, "Isn't there any way for the Japanese to deal with it?"

"The way is for them to retreat and return to their own island," Company Commander Hua said seriously.

Hearing the soldiers monitoring the movements of the Japanese soldiers report that the Japanese soldiers had rushed within a hundred meters, Company Commander Hua also went to the edge of the trenches to observe the enemy's situation.

Watching the Japanese soldiers getting closer and closer, Company Commander Hua was also giving orders, "After the directional mine explodes, the machine guns and heavy machine guns of the entire company will strafe the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain, suppressing the Japanese soldiers' firepower.

The remaining soldiers will rush out and wipe out the Japanese soldiers before returning."

This was completely the same old trick to deal with the Japanese soldiers. Although he was afraid in his heart, Captain Eita Sakaekura still had his own plan to attack the top of the mountain.

His plan was very simple: "When the Japanese soldiers have rushed to about forty meters from the top of the mountain, let all the Japanese soldiers in the entire company throw grenades. First, bomb the defenders in the trenches and interrupt their combat plan.

Then all the Japanese soldiers will charge together and take the top of the mountain in one go."
