Chapter 738 Inexplicable Praise
Xiang Chu really hoped that the pirates would fight back desperately and end up suffering mutual losses with the Japs.
However, these pirates only knew how to bully the common people and were terribly afraid of the Japs.
They were awakened from their sleep and immediately scattered like birds and beasts when they heard that the Japanese were attacking.
The pirates who fled towards the Japanese soldiers naturally became their sitting ducks.
The pirates turned to the ships on the beach, trying to escape by boat.
Akita Haruka's mind was full of money, and he shouted to the artillery:
"Quick! Fire at the ships on the shore to prevent the pirates from escaping with the money."
The Japanese artillery immediately bombarded the pirate ships on the shore.
The pirate ship was blown up, cutting off the pirates' hope of escaping by ship.
Lin Zhihu and other pirate leaders, surrounded by several trusted pirates, fled to the seaside, but were stunned when they saw that there was no ship left.
Lin Zhihu said bitterly: "These must be the Japanese soldiers hired by the mountain leader on Lamma Island. These Japanese are so abominable."
Scar Two said regretfully, "If I had known this, I should have followed Zheng Baobao and his men out to sea early in the morning and headed for Lamma Island."
Lin Zhihu shook his head and said, "What's the use of regretting? Go and tell the leader of the devils that we are in the same group with them."
Scar II smiled bitterly and said, "Boss! You said that these devils were invited by the leader of the mountain on Lamma Island. They will not let us surrender."
Lin Zhihu sneered, "You are so stupid! Don't we say we will surrender to the next generation leader? Raise the white flag and surrender."
Scar Two said anxiously: "Okay!"
He got a piece of white cloth, hung it on a bamboo pole, and raised it tremblingly.
Xiang Chu and Gan Rong hid in the mountains and forests far away from the Japanese soldiers.
He saw the white cloth through the telescope and hurriedly told Gan Rong:
"Nobi-kun! Break the pirates' white flag."
"Yes!"
Gan Rong hurriedly accepted the order.
He raised the sniper rifle, took aim, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
The bamboo pole in Scar Er's hand was hit by his shot and broke into two pieces, and the white cloth fell to the ground.
Lin Zhihu was so angry that he roared loudly: "Don't surrender, fight them."
After he finished speaking, his anger made him stand up suddenly, raised his gun and shot at the Japanese soldiers.
Scar Second Pirate quietly turned around, jumped into the sea and swam away.
Many loyal pirates followed Lin Zhihu and rushed forward to attack the Japanese soldiers.
Gan Rong took aim again, ready to kill Lin Zhihu.
Xiang Chu hurriedly lowered the sniper rifle and whispered:
"Let them be Chinese for once and fight the devils."
Gan Rong quickly put away his sniper rifle and said with a smile: "That's right!"
The pirates, who were left with nowhere else to go, finally launched an attack on the Japanese.
For a moment, there was a burst of gunfire in Paias Bay.
The pirates were forced to fight the Japanese, and they still killed a small number of them.
Not all pirates are Chinese. A Filipino pirate quietly aimed his gun at Lin Zhihu.
"Boom! Boom!"
He pulled the trigger repeatedly and shot Lin Zhihu.
Lin Zhihu turned his head to look at him, then fell to the ground and died.
The Filipino pirate raised a white flag and shouted:
"Lin Zhihu is dead! Surrender now!"
"Bang!"
Xiang Chu pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle and shot down the white flag.
The Filipino pirate was shot dead by Lin Zhihu's confidant.
The pirates no longer had the heart to fight and fled towards the sea.
Akita Haruka was overjoyed and shouted:
"Launch poison gas bombs and block the beach."
"Boom! Boom!"
Countless poison gas bombs landed on the beach.
Gan Rong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Chief! Akita Haruka understands your thoughts very well. He knows that you don't want to let these evil pirates go."
Seeing that the pirates who lacked knowledge of anti-gas were all poisoned by the gas, Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "Of course he doesn't understand. I want the pirates to fight the Japanese. Although these pirates are strong, they only have brotherhood and loyalty. They don't have the spirit of devoting themselves to the country and the nation before they die. It seems that we Communists will have to save China in the future."
Gan Rong nodded and said, "Yes! We are Communists."
Xiang Chu stood up and said with a wry smile, "Let's go! The battle is over. I'll say hello to Akita Haruka. Let's go back to Lamma Island right away. I think some pirates will come over to take revenge on us."
Indeed, Akita Haruka was also walking towards him.
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Chun He! Your brigade is indeed very powerful. Nobi-kun and I are going back to Lamma Island. Thank you!"
Akita Haruka said happily: "Haruka should thank the first generation. I didn't expect the pirates to help with money."
"It's all yours! May your military fortune last forever!"
Xiang Chu patted his shoulder affectionately, then turned and left with Gan Rong.
Akita Haruka didn't expect that he didn't want a penny, and he was so moved that he shouted, "Thank you, Brother Chuxiong!"
Xiang Chu raised his right hand and waved it backwards, giving him a signature cool move that was a hallmark of the Shanyi generation.
Lamma Island, South Beach.
Zheng Baobao and more than 30 other pirates quietly approached the shore on two boats.
Seeing that there was no one around, they quickly jumped off the boat and headed towards the shore.
"oops!"
A pirate fell into a trap filled with sharp bamboo thorns.
"what!"
A pirate was caught in a wild boar trap and screamed loudly.
"snake!"
Some pirates screamed in fear.
Zheng Baobao shouted, "Brothers! Fight to the island and complete the boss's mission."
Five patrol boats came to the sea, and the military police shouted loudly:
"Pirates! You are surrounded! Surrender."
Zheng Baobao roared: "Don't surrender, rush to the island."
The pirate in the front shouted: "Master! There is a 2-meter-high barbed wire in front."
Zheng Baobao rushed forward, looked at the barbed wire and said angrily:
"Quick! Give me the pliers. We must kill our way in."
One of the pirates hastily handed him the vise from his backpack.
Zheng Baobao took the pliers and twisted the wire violently.
"Hey! Hey!"
There was a sound of electric current, and he fell to the ground, twitching continuously.
"Da-da! Da-da-da!"
The military police opened fire on the pirates who refused to surrender.
The pirates shouted surrender, but it was too late.
By the window of Chu Lu, Wang Manxue was holding her son and saw this scene. She shook her head and said:
"These pirates are so stupid that they think our Lamma Island is so easy to conquer."
Xu Lai said anxiously: "Why hasn't Brother Chu come back yet? It's really worrying."
Wang Manxue teased: "If you are in a hurry, go to the rooftop platform to take a look."
"Right!"
Xu Lai nodded and ran towards the rooftop platform.
Wang Manxue shouted angrily: "Hey! Don't you know I was just teasing you?"
Northeast, woods southeast of Nomonhan.
Doihara Kan'er was so excited that he couldn't help himself and said happily:
"Yoshi! I, a general, have defeated the Russian army with just one regiment, and are almost on the verge of reaching Nomonhan. No one can surpass this record."
Takahashi Taisho warned: "Sir, the commander of the regiment! You'd better not go deep into the enemy territory alone, or you will be surrounded."
Doihara Kan'er shouted angrily, "Baka! You must be jealous of my outstanding military achievements, that's why you say that."
Yamashita Yoshiaki was also worried about being surrounded, so he rolled his eyes and suggested, "General! The head of the Yingzhu Agency called and ordered our army to retreat immediately, otherwise he will deprive you of your power to lead the army."
Doihara Xian'er was furious and roared, "What?! Chief Yingzhu gave such blind orders."
Takahashi Taisho said hurriedly: "Sir, the commander of the regiment! Your troops were given to you by your father, the head of the Yingzhu Agency. If you don't listen to him, I will definitely take back the troops."
Doihara Kan'er said helplessly: "Okay! Withdraw. But I must impeach Chief Yingzhu."
He reluctantly led his troops out of the dense forest and retreated to the puppet Manchukuo border.
"Boom! Boom!"
Countless shells fell into the dense forest where his troops had been previously located.
Doihara Xian'er praised: "Wow! Chief Yingzhu is indeed a brilliant man. Jiqiu! Send a telegram to the headquarters to commend Chief Yingzhu."
"Hello!"
Yamashita Yoshiaki accepted the order with great joy.
As a result, Xiang Chu received inexplicable praise from the Japanese headquarters.
