Chapter 724 The Fire Burns the Heart

As the only student soldier allowed to follow the guard platoon to crawl to Xiaozhuang Village, Fang Shiheng, who was crawling on the ground and looking at the crowd in the small village, felt a fire burning in his heart, making his heart seem to have dried up.

But this painful feeling of twitching all over his body did not start a few minutes ago when he watched the Japanese waved his hand and let the wolfdog bite from the telescope of the guard platoon.

To be precise, it should have been two hours ago.

Fang Shiheng is a top student of Dan Tai Yunshu. His first-hand landscape painting has already obtained the true teachings of Dan Tai Yunshu. If he was in a peaceful and prosperous era, he would have become a good young painter. After the experience of time, he would even have the opportunity to surpass his teacher's achievements.

But when the war came and the country was in danger, Fang Shiheng hoped to contribute to his country, just as he preached to Tang Dao and his classmates in the valley, in order to fight the invaders, he was willing to die.

From the moment he signed up for the "Battle" program, he had already put his life and death aside. The mountain road was difficult at night, and he was sweating and stumbled all the way but could not extinguish the burning fire in his hearts and outstanding young people from different departments.

Until he witnessed death with his own eyes.

It is the death of fellow countrymen.

The small village they arrived after running for four hours, with white banners hanging on them, and the open space was filled with thin wooden coffins that were temporarily nailed with door panels. The villagers who were watching all night watched them appear, not happy, not sad, and their faces were full of numbness.

Lao Hei, the leader, came forward to briefly ask, and learned that the entire village had been looted by the Japanese army during the day. Because of the news of the Chinese wounded soldiers, the Japanese massacred five families and robbed all the wealth of the entire village.

The bloody twenty lives were placed on the rice field. In order to prove their cruelty, the brutal Japanese army did not even let go of the three-year-old child.

Death was presented to Fang Shiheng so directly, causing a fire to rise in Fang Shiheng's heart, burning his breath almost burned.

In addition to the numbness that appeared on the surface of the arrival of these soldiers, Fang Shiheng could actually feel that even fear and hatred were hidden in the eyes of the darkness.

They are of the same race, but they hide fear and hatred. What a sad thing!

But who can blame them? They were just living peacefully on this peaceful land, but when the war came, they faithfully fulfilled their promises, received rewards, hid the wounded soldiers, and paid the heavy price of several families being slaughtered.

All of this was caused by the failure of his own army on the front line. The soldiers who originally wanted to defend the country not only did not protect them, but instead caused the root cause of this tragedy.

The elites and students of the Independence Camp were re-sinking into the darkness with grief and shame.

Fortunately, in the early morning, they received a telegram from the cavalry platoon. A team of Japanese troops were advancing towards Xiaozhuang Village, three kilometers away. The guard platoon and student soldiers quickly chased after him.

The fire that had never been extinguished on his chest became the source of motivation to support Fang Shiheng and his students. After rushing for six or seven kilometers of mountain roads, they were still able to keep up with the guard platoon in such a marching force. Although three people were actually exhausted the moment before they arrived.

However, they were still late, and the Japanese had driven the villagers to the empty rice field and surrounded them with rifles and machine guns.

Lao Hei, who quietly approached 300 meters outside Xiaozhuang Village, could only order the entire army not to act rashly, otherwise the first thing that would be the villagers pointed at by machine guns as soon as the battle started.

They came to attack the Japanese troops who were operating in this small-scale area, not to let innocent villagers be buried with Japanese people.

Fang Shiheng could understand this reason completely, but when he saw with his own eyes that the Japanese army began to bite the old man with his own eyes, he could no longer bear it.

"Platform Commander Wu, the Japanese are about to start massacre villagers. Why don't you start acting? You are committing a crime! It's killing!" Fang Shiheng almost accused the Army Lieutenant who had been staring at the distance but had no expression on his face in a low voice.

"I don't know whether I have committed a crime, but I can be sure that if the Japanese wolfhound was alarmed by your voice, those villagers will lose their lives forever because of you?" Lao Hei looked at the student leader with slightly red eyes and whispered coldly.

Fang Shiheng was stunned. He knew that the Army lieutenant was not exaggerating.

Fang Shiheng secretly looked at the "hammer" lying in the grass with a low profile of more than 20 meters away.

He didn't know how terrifying the hearing of a dog was, but the big dog called "hammer" gave him this scientific common sense.

Compared with dogs, human hearing is nothing.

The 300 student soldiers in the Student Company not only wore military uniforms, but also were distributed according to the standard. Each person had a Japanese 38 rifle, and there were 9 light machine guns, but the ammunition was not opened. Student soldiers who were still familiar with guns were allowed to use them only when an emergency occurred. A telescope-like auxiliary equipment was also divided.

Fang Shiheng took the telescope that had just been sent and looked around curiously. Then, he saw the big dog that emerged from the mountains and forests at least 200 meters away.

‘What a big local dog!’ Fang Shiheng subconsciously exclaimed.

Then, the local dog that had just jumped out of the forest and held a hare in his mouth in the telescope actually glanced at this side.

Yes, just glance!

In the telescope's field of vision, he could clearly see the large Chinese pastoral dog looking at him. After glanced at him with disdain, he ran away with four legs and disappeared again.

My intuition told him that the dog must have heard his voice and thought he was very strange.

But that's more than 200 meters away!

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! If it is true as the Army Lieutenant said, because of his inattention, the Japanese army shot and killed villagers, then he will not forgive himself in his life, and even death will not be eliminated.

"I'm sorry!" The handsome young man's face turned red, his voice was as low as a mosquito and flies apologized.

He dared to accuse Tang Dao of strong men in person, but because the most ordinary villagers apologized to Tang Dao's subordinates, he seemed to have different words and deeds, but he could also feel the sincerity of this extremely proud scholar like the thick lines of Lao Hei.

He sighed slightly: "Boy, this is the battlefield. For the final victory, the first thing you have to learn is to wait and wait for the most suitable fighter plane. We are not doing nothing, but waiting for Gu Xishui's two special operations teams to find good fighter planes, waiting for Niu Er and others to ensure that they can kill the two Japanese machine gunners, so that we can officially start the operation. Otherwise, the ones who died would not be one or two villagers, but everyone, do you understand?"

Fang Shiheng nodded fiercely.

He understood the truth, but accompanied by the cruel gunfire of the Japanese army, two more villagers fell down, right in front of him.

Fang Shiheng's fingers were embedded in the dead grass where he was hiding, burying his head and not daring to look ahead. At this moment, he had already understood the pain and helplessness of the army colonel he had accused of.

It’s not that he dared not die, but that he didn’t want to see his subordinates fall under the guns of the Japanese army because they were outnumbered and were not well-off because of insufficient ammunition reserves!

Just like him now, he can only watch and his hands that can draw magnificent mountains and rivers can only helplessly grasp the land.

Fortunately, the mirror reflection lit up in the distance, which should be a signal from the fair-faced Army lieutenant.

The guard platoon can approach the village and start operations.

"I request to act together!" Fang Shiheng tried his best to lower his voice and ask for his orders.

"If you don't obey the order, I will be whipped!" Lao Hei stared at him for a while and then left such a sentence.

Fang Shiheng became the only student soldier who could follow the guard platoon soldiers, and the remaining nine students were asked to stand by with a guard squad outside the battlefield.

Their mission is equally arduous, and they are responsible for killing Japanese infantry who missed the net.

It is necessary not to mention Lao Hei that no military order is left. It has become inevitable when the village full of more than twenty thin coffins leaves.

The battle started when the guard line approached to 150 meters.

The Japanese wolf-green dog heard a strange noise coming from a distance.

Asahiro Okamoto, who was about to wave his hand and order to shoot, had no time to turn his head and look into the distance, and his horrified eyes were still jumping deep in his pupils.

"Bang!"

The sudden gunfire sounded in everyone's ears like thunder!
