Chapter 324: The fierce battle ended and the documents were first obtained
The remaining militiamen acted swiftly, without hesitation. They ran to the corners of the walls and grabbed their Hanyang rifles. Some knelt on one knee, resting the butt of their rifles against their shoulders, leaning forward to stare at the bandits ahead. Others stood against the wall, poking their heads out, squinting their eyes, aiming their crosshairs at the bandits.
The Hanyang rifles clattered, and bullets rained down upon the bandits. This sudden counterattack caught the bandits off guard, and several were instantly struck by bullets. Their bodies jolted violently, expressions of pain on their faces. Some clutched their chests and slowly collapsed, their clothes stained red with blood; others were simply thrown to the ground by the force of the attack.
The militia's intense counterattack left the bandits in panic, turning and stumbling back through the main gate. However, the bandits refused to give up. They hid behind the door, using the door panels as cover, and raised their guns, firing through the cracks and windows. Bullets whizzed out from time to time in a vain attempt to reverse the situation. The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce exchange of fire, the sound of gunfire completely shattering the tranquility of the night.
As Yi Guang fired, he observed the situation inside the house. He found that the number of bandits was far greater than he had imagined, and there seemed to be Japanese spies mixed in. Those Japanese spies were agile and had accurate shooting skills, posing a great threat to them.
At the same time, Lei Tao heard the gunshots and immediately rushed to support with the militia. Seeing Yi Guang and others surrounded by bandits, he immediately and decisively ordered: "Everyone spread out and encircle them from the flanks. We must capture the enemy in one fell swoop!" The militia quickly moved and approached the bandits from different directions.
The battle intensified, bullets darting through the night sky and flames flickering. Yi Guang seized the opportunity and led the militia to break through the bandits' encirclement and rush into the house. In the study, they found Kazuya Uesugi rummaging through documents.
"Kamiyama Kazuya, you won't be able to escape today!" Yi Guang glared at him, pointing the gun at Kamishima Kazuya, with flames of anger burning in his eyes.
Kazuya Uesugi's face darkened. He had never expected the Netherworld team to arrive so quickly. He sneered, "Is Netherworld completely empty? They think they're going to stop me with a small fry like you? I'm determined to get this document today!"
As he spoke, Shangshan Heye suddenly threw a smoke bomb. Taking advantage of the smoke, he and several Japanese spies quickly jumped out of the window. Seeing this, Yi Guang immediately chased after them.
Yi Guang pursued him relentlessly. Under cover of smoke, Shangshan Kazuya and several Japanese spies dodged around the courtyard like cunning foxes. Yi Guang crouched low, using the stone benches and water tanks in the yard as cover, moving swiftly in the direction of Shangshan Kazuya's escape. His eyes were fixed on his target, his pistol ready to fire.
As he ran, Kazuya Uesugami turned back and fired several shots in Yi Guang's direction. Bullets grazed the hem of Yi Guang's shirt, leaving holes in the wall behind him. Yi Guang, with his agility, nimbly dodged the hail of bullets. He saw the right moment, quickly emerged from cover, and pulled the trigger at Kazuya Uesugami.
With a "bang", the bullet whizzed out and hit a bandit next to Uesugami Kazuya. The bandit screamed and fell to the ground, clutching his wound. Uesugami Kazuya's face darkened, and he was secretly angry. He quickened his pace, trying to get rid of Yi Guang's pursuit.
However, Yi Guang wouldn't let him go so easily. He suddenly accelerated, dashing towards an abandoned firewood pile. Using the height of the firewood pile, he leaped high, adjusted his posture in the air, and fired again at Shangshan Kazuya. Shangshan Kazuya dodged to the side, and the bullet grazed his arm, leaving a bloody mark.
At that moment, another bandit came around from the side, preparing to launch a sneak attack. Yi Guang sensed the danger and quickly turned. The moment the Japanese spy opened fire, he rolled sideways and fired back. The two bullets crossed mid-air. Yi Guang's bullet accurately struck the bandit's chest, while the Japanese spy's bullet grazed Yi Guang's cheek, leaving him with a burning pain.
Taking advantage of a break in the exchange of fire between Yi Guang and the bandits, Shangshan Kazuya ran to the courtyard wall. He used both hands to climb the wall, preparing to escape over it. Seeing this, Yi Guang was extremely anxious. He rushed towards Shangshan Kazuya desperately. When he was only a few steps away from the wall, he jumped high and threw the pistol in his hand as a hidden weapon at Shangshan Kazuya.
The pistol hit Kazuya Uesugami's back hard, and he lost his balance and fell off the wall with a muffled groan. After landing, Yi Guang quickly rushed towards the fallen Kazuya Uesugami, ready to subdue him. Just as he was about to get close to Kazuya Uesugami, Kazuya Uesugami suddenly got up from the ground and performed a roundhouse kick at an extremely fast speed. Yi Guang couldn't dodge in time and was kicked in the chest and flew against the wall. He stopped with a "bang" and felt a sharp pain in his chest. He gritted his teeth to endure it. Kazuya Uesugami took the opportunity to climb over the wall.
Just as Kazuya Uesugami was about to escape the yard, Lei Tao suddenly appeared and blocked his way. "Kazuya Uesugami, your doom has come!" Lei Tao said coldly, his voice filled with a chilling murderous aura.
Seeing himself trapped in a desperate situation, a trace of fear crossed Kazuya Uesugami's face. He quickly pulled out his pistol and fired several times at Lei Tao. The bullets flew through the air with a sharp whistling sound. Lei Tao reacted quickly, dodging to the side and firing back. With a few "bangs", bullets flew through the night sky, intersecting with the bullets fired by Kazuya Uesugami. Kazuya Uesugami's bullets flew by Lei Tao's sleeves, while Lei Tao's bullets hit the wall next to Kazuya Uesugami. "Ding ding dang dang", sparks flew, leaving charred bullet marks on the wall.
The two exchanged fire, rapidly closing in on each other. Kazuya Uesugami seized the moment Lei Tao was reloading, lunged forward, and delivered a fierce side kick, aimed squarely at Lei Tao's chest. Lei Tao ducked, easily dodging the blow, and simultaneously launched a sweeping kick, intending to trip Kazuya Uesugami. Kazuya Uesugami tapped his toes and leaped back, avoiding Lei Tao's attack. The two exchanged blows, fists and kicks, for a moment, a fierce exchange of blows and kicks.
Yi Guang quickly joined the fight, and the three of them formed a triangle. Suddenly, a bandit appeared from nowhere, holding a grenade. He swung it hard, and the grenade flew towards Lei Tao and Yi Guang, landing squarely in a pile of sawdust.
"Be careful!" Lei Tao shouted, and he and Yi Guang quickly lay down. The grenade exploded, and the huge impact kicked up a cloud of sawdust and dust, and the entire yard was instantly covered in thick smoke.
When the smoke cleared slightly, Lei Tao and Yi Guang stood up to check, only to find that Shang Shan He Ye had disappeared, and only saw Zhu Er Ba and several other bandits fleeing in the darkness. It turned out that Shang Shan He Ye had taken advantage of the thick smoke from the explosion to escape with Zhu Er Ba and others.
Yi Guang and Lei Tao quickly ran towards the study. In a secret compartment, they finally found the crucial document. It was contained in a brown paper bag, sealed with special wax and stamped with the official seal of the Ministry of National Security and the Ministry of National Defense.
"Finally found it!" Yi Guang breathed a sigh of relief, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
Lei Tao took the document and carefully placed it in his backpack: "This document is too important. There must be no mistakes."
By this time, the battle was over, and most of the bandits and Japanese spies had been wiped out. The mayor looked at the scene before him, his heart filled with guilt and gratitude: "Captain Lei, Captain Yi, thanks to you, otherwise I..."
Lei Tao smiled and said, "Mayor, the matter is over. Next, let's guard this document together. When the Military Control Commission arrives tomorrow morning, we can hand this hot potato to them to deal with."
