Chapter 340 Oda Sumitomo's Death

At that moment, Oda Shigeki, who had just given the order to assemble, was also startled by the sudden gunshots coming from the surrounding woods.

When the Japanese soldiers around Oda Tsukimoto saw their own men being shot down one after another, they immediately shielded Oda Tsukimoto in the crowd.

In case their captain was sniped.

"Baka yarou, where did these enemies come from around here?"

Surrounded by guards, Oda Tsukimoto couldn't see his surroundings at all. He asked the Japanese sergeant who was blocking his way.

"Lieutenant Colonel Oda, it seems that Red Party snipers have infiltrated. The captains of the second and third companies have been sniped by them."

The Japanese sergeant in front of Oda Sekiki quickly reported what he had seen to Oda Sekiki behind him.

"You damned Red Party! Get your men and get rid of these rats right now!"

Upon hearing the Japanese sergeant's words, Oda Sumiki was furious. While retreating with his guards into the woods behind them, he gave the sergeant orders.

"Hi."

Upon hearing Oda Sekiki's order, the Japanese sergeant immediately turned around and saluted Oda Sekiki.

But just then, a muffled gunshot reached the ears of the Japanese sergeant.

At the same time, he was horrified to discover that his captain's once fat and big head had suddenly disappeared.

Only a headless corpse remained, with crimson blood gushing from its neck as if it were free.

Moreover, the Imperial soldiers protecting Lieutenant Colonel Oda also fell in droves.

He clutched his wound and let out a piercing scream.

This sudden turn of events caught the Japanese sergeant off guard, leaving him standing there dumbfounded.

But soon, the Japanese sergeant was pulled back to consciousness by a series of sharp pains in his chest.

The Japanese sergeant's gaze slowly moved downwards, and he then discovered that a fragment of skull had somehow become embedded in his chest.

Bright red blood was continuously flowing from the wound caused by the skull fragment.

A feeling of weakness quickly spread throughout his body. The Japanese sergeant staggered forward two steps before collapsing onto the cold ground.

The sniper squad lurking in the surrounding woods was also drawn by the loud gunfire.

At this moment, Gao Sheng was located in the woods opposite Bai Luo. His initial target was Oda Sekiki, the captain of this Japanese battalion.

However, through his observation, the Japanese battalion commander remained huddled at the very back of the cave and showed no intention of leading his troops out of the valley.

The sniper rifle in his hand has a range of only about 600 meters, and the furthest distance he is most confident of firing is 400 meters.

He couldn't have hit the Japanese battalion commander from his previous position.

It took Gao Sheng a lot of effort to sneak up to the distance where he was most confident.

To ensure a fatal shot, Gao Sheng even chose a sniping position on a branch of a large tree.

This position would be very dangerous if the Japanese soldiers discovered it.

Gao Sheng understood this as well, so after climbing the tree, he first tied a rappelling rope to the tree.

This would allow them to quickly evacuate if their location was discovered by the Japanese.

The preparations were undeniably thorough.

As a result, he pointed his gun at the Japanese lieutenant colonel who was surrounded in an inner room by the edge of the valley woods.

Just as he was about to pull the trigger, he suddenly realized that the Japanese lieutenant colonel's head was gone.

This startled Gao Sheng, who thought he was seeing things.

He instinctively scanned the area around the headless corpse, which was spurting blood, with his sniper rifle.

But Gao Sheng quickly confirmed that the Japanese lieutenant colonel had indeed been killed.

Not only was the Japanese lieutenant colonel killed, but many of the Japanese soldiers who were originally surrounding him were also blown up.

This made Gao Sheng curious: what weapon killed this Japanese lieutenant colonel?

"Boom, bang, bang."

Three consecutive sounds, seemingly the sound of cannons being fired, reached Gao Sheng's ears.

The next moment, Gao Sheng noticed that the Japanese soldiers near the body of the Japanese lieutenant colonel looked as if they had been hit by a bomb.

Several Japanese soldiers were blown to the ground.

Gao Sheng subconsciously moved the scope of his sniper rifle toward the woods opposite where the sound of gunfire was coming from.

But from his perspective, he can't see anything.

His view was completely blocked by the trees opposite him.

However, just because Gao Sheng can't see it here doesn't mean he can't see the positions of the Japanese soldiers below.

After the initial chaos, the Japanese soldiers below...

Based on the sound of Bai Luo firing his gun and the dust kicked up by the recoil of his sniper grenade, Bai Luo's approximate location was quickly determined.

They kept firing suppressively at Bai Luo's position.

At the same time, the Japanese soldiers near Bai Luo's location in the mountains also quickly charged towards Bai Luo's position.

Because Bai Luo was in the woods, his shooting angles were very limited.

After firing his fifth grenade, Bai Luo could no longer see any Japanese soldiers within his firing range.

Bai Luo realized that he could no longer hit the Japanese soldiers from his position, and that his location had been exposed.

Bai Luo could see from the detection radar that more than 200 Japanese soldiers were rushing towards his position.

Upon seeing this, Bai Luo immediately picked up the sniper cannon and turned to run.

It wasn't that Bai Luo was afraid of the 200-plus Japanese soldiers, but rather that he was afraid the Japanese would set up artillery to bombard him.

And indeed, the facts were just as Bai Luo had guessed.

Gao Sheng, whose gaze had been drawn back from Bai Luo by the gunfire in the valley, was distracted by the sound of gunfire.

They immediately discovered that the Japanese artillery squad was setting up their cannons, and their target was the forest opposite them.

Gao Sheng couldn't care less about anything else now, and quickly pointed his gun at the artillery squad in the valley.

But the next moment, a violent explosion rang out on the artillery squad's position.

The Japanese artillery squad was caught off guard by the sudden artillery barrage.

Five or six Japanese artillerymen were blown away on the spot, and two mortars were destroyed.

Fortunately, this did not cause the shells in the Japanese soldiers' hands to explode.

However, before the Japanese artillerymen could even celebrate for a few seconds, the whistling sound of artillery shells echoed from above the valley once again.

"Boom boom boom..."

The incoming shell landed directly on the ammunition box more than 10 meters behind the artillery squad.

The Japanese mortar shells were instantly detonated by this shell.

The Japanese artillery squad was instantly affected by the secondary explosion of mortar shells from the rear.

In an instant, nearly a third of the Japanese artillery squad was killed, and the remaining Japanese artillerymen were also blown away by the shockwave of the explosion.

"Old Han, that was a brilliant shot."

Seeing the explosion in the distant valley, Li Qing praised Old Han, who had just fired the cannon.

Meanwhile, Lao Han, who was with the fifth squad, had somehow switched his sniper rifle for a mortar.

Those two shots were fired by Old Han.
