Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 95 A life-and-death contest
When Takayuki Noguchi and Ishida arrived with a small team, the smoke screen around the city gate had already dispersed, but the whole scene was already in shambles, there were several soldiers lying prone in the city gate hole, with red blood stains leaching out of their bodies, and another soldier was moaning there next to the door wall, covering his abdomen with one hand, and blood oozing faintly between his fingers.
Outside the city gate, the gunfire was still fierce, and there were shouts and shouts of Japanese officers and soldiers.
"Upper Castle Tower" Ishida wanted to go out through the castle gate hole, but was pulled up to the castle by Takayuki Noguchi involuntarily
When I went up to the city, the scene outside the city was in full view, and I saw a group of Japanese soldiers chasing along the road, and there were five Chinese soldiers in farmer's and hunter's costume who turned around and shot, and Orr rushed forward, and one of the Chinese soldiers was still carrying a person on his back, thinking that Liu Chang should have been rescued by them.
The five Chinese soldiers retreated and still maintained a battle formation, with machine guns left behind and responsible for fire cover, two soldiers armed with rifles and responsible for answering, and two people remained, one responsible for carrying the wounded Liu Chang, and the other was able to fire mortar shells during the retreat.
Farther away, a truck was speeding along the road, billowing soot from beneath its wheels.
"Baga, only five people?" Ishida was so shocked that his eyes were about to bulge, how was this possible?
Noguchi Takayuki also looked gloomy, but compared to Ishida, Noguchi Takayuki could see at a glance that these five Chinese soldiers were by no means ordinary soldiers, no matter the firepower configuration, no matter the tactical movements, no matter the alternating cover between each other, these five Chinese soldiers all showed a level far higher than that of the ordinary national army.
In a matter of moments, the truck was speeding close to the five people.
In the distance, I saw that the truck braked suddenly, and the front wheels violently rubbed the ground and dragged out two long brake marks on the road, and when the truck came to a complete stop, the front of the car almost hit the Chinese soldier who was carrying Liu Changchong in the front, and then another Chinese soldier poked his head out of the cockpit and beckoned his companion to get into the car.
"Gun" Takayuki Noguchi stretched out his hand to the adjutant, and the adjutant quickly took out the Wang Ba box and handed it over.
"Yaga." Takayuki Noguchi knocked out the box in the adjutant's hand, and then strode over to a guard, snatched the 38 cover from his hand, pulled the bolt, pushed the bullet to load, and knelt down at the head of the city.

"Get in the car, get in the car, get in the car"
Li Mu poked his head out of the cab and beckoned his teammates to get into the car quickly.
Gao Shenxing put the machine gun on the small dirt bag on the side of the road, and was shooting fiercely at the Japanese soldiers chasing behind, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly found a cold light flashing on the city in the distance, and faintly saw a Japanese officer half-squatting at the head of the city to raise a gun to shoot, and the hairs on Gao Shenxing's back stood up in an instant, and he instinctively turned his head at the moment.
"Whoosh", a bullet almost brushed against Gao Shenxing's cheek.
The scorching wave of air generated by the high-speed friction of the bullet and the air left a scorched black bullet mark on Gao Shenxing's right cheek in an instant, and Gao Shenxing would have confessed here today.
"Everyone be careful, Little Japan has a sniper Komaki, turn around"
Gao Shenxing escaped death, and suddenly yelled loudly, while putting away the machine gun and running down from the small dirt bag, and changing the direction of travel several times in a row on the way, Li Mu also suddenly became alert, and stepped on the accelerator without waiting for his teammates to get into the car, and the truck that had stopped started again.

"It's Him, That's Him"
As soon as the shot missed, Takayuki Noguchi immediately realized that the guy on the other side was the national army sniper he encountered last time at the gap in the wall of Nanjing's Shuixi Gate.
"He? Who? Ishida was at a loss.
Takayuki Noguchi ignored Ishida, pressed the trigger of the rifle with his right index finger, and the crosshair began to chase the running figure, but unfortunately, the opponent was too cunning, not only made tactical evasions continuously, but also the tactical evasion movements were irregular, and several times Takayuki Noguchi had left a good margin, but the opponent temporarily changed direction.
Soon, the other party's truck had completed its U-turn, and several Chinese soldiers had also boarded the compartment.
One of the Chinese soldiers was still lying down behind the protective plate of the truck and fired two shots at the head of the city, but unfortunately the distance was too far to even hit Noguchi Takayuki's hair, Noguchi Takayuki forgot everything, and all his attention was already focused on the running figure under the crosshair, he was waiting for an opportunity to deliver the fatal blow

Gao Shenxing rushed up from the small dirt bag, still some distance away from the truck.
In order to let Gao Shenxing catch up with the truck, Li Mu had to control the throttle, while dialing the direction back and forth, so that the truck could keep the curve as much as possible, so as not to burst the tires by the Japanese snipers.
The calf stretched out his hand from the back guard and shouted at Gao Shenxing: "Lao Gao, hurry up, hurry up"
Gao Shenxing's eyes were wide open, and he ran forward, the speed of the truck was not fast, if he changed to usual, Gao Shenxing could catch up with him by a sprint, but now, he had to make various tactical evasion moves on the way to run, otherwise it would be easy to be locked and killed by the Japanese snipers on the opposite side.
This is more of a test of human strength, and more patient.
Because Gao Shenxing knew very well in his heart that the other party must be aiming at his front, as long as he showed the slightest sign of boarding the car, the other party would immediately pull the trigger without hesitation, so that he would just hit the bullet flying at high speed, in other words, he must not easily board the car until the other party did not shoot or completely out of the range of the opponent's rifle.

At the head of the castle, Takayuki Noguchi was also secretly anxious.
His opponent was more calm than he could have imagined, and he was able to be so calm in the face of such a dangerous situation, and if he got along, Noguchi was not sure if he could do better than his opponent.
The distance between the two sides is getting farther and farther away, and it is estimated that it is now at least more than 400 meters
Although the effective range of the Type 38 rifle is more than 500 meters, if it is a windless environment and the shooting range is good, a good shooter like Takayuki Noguchi can even hit a target a thousand meters away, but this is not a real battle after all, in actual combat, the trajectory of the rifle bullet will be seriously disturbed by many factors such as wind speed and gravity.
Within 400 meters, Takayuki Noguchi still had the confidence to hit his opponent.
But once the distance exceeds 500 meters, whether or not you can hit it can only depend on luck.
Seeing that the opponent was approaching the limit of the effective range little by little, Takayuki Noguchi finally couldn't keep calm anymore, and when Gao Shenxing made another feint to try to board the car, he finally shot decisively, of course, this shot missed, but Noguchi Takayuki also kept an eye on it, and this shot was just a smokescreen.
After firing the first shot, Noguchi Takayuki pulled the bolt as fast as he could, pushed the bullet to load, and then quickly aimed at the rear guard of the truck and fired a second shot
(Dividing Line)
Takayuki Noguchi was right, this little Japanese is not only excellent in marksmanship, but also well versed in human psychology.
Takayuki Noguchi's first shot accurately hit the rear guard of the truck, and the Type 38 rifle bullet was so penetrating that it still pierced the rear guard of the truck from a distance of 400 meters, and then pierced through the military kettle that the little madman was carrying, and then embedded it into the wooden floor of the truck.
Gao Shenxing was waiting for this moment.
Almost Noguchi Takayuki's bullet hit the rear protective steel plate of the truck, and at the same time as it sounded, Gao Shenxing rushed up with an arrow, and at the same time threw the machine gun in his hand into the car, his hands suddenly reached out, and grabbed the rear protective steel plate of the truck, but at this moment, the second bullet fired by Noguchi Takayuki also arrived.
"Poof" Gao Shenxing's right vest suddenly bloomed with a blood flower, and the hands that grabbed the protective steel plate were also released.
Fortunately, the old four eyes were quick, grabbed Gao Shenxing's hand, and dragged him onto the truck, the calf, Wang Yidao and the little madman rushed up, picked up Gao Shenxing with all hands and feet, and put him down in the carriage.
