Chapter 60: The Hour of Assassination
"James, maybe we don't need to be so panicked, those people may just be friendly troops who happen to be on a mission."
A U.S. sentry was a little tired and said to the U.S. soldiers running fast in front.
"That's right, the first line of defense is impregnable, the commander has said it, I'm afraid there will be no problem in holding it for a month or two, plus such a strong firepower and troops, how can there be volunteers interspersed."
Edward, another U.S. military sentry, spread his hands helplessly at the moment, looked at James with a serious face and said.
Because of the heavy snow flying in the sky, the temperature in the air is getting lower and lower, although these American soldiers have thick cotton clothes, the layers of frost formed outside the cotton clothes have caused their clothes to harden a lot.
Every time they move their hands and feet, they always feel as if there is something in the way outside, and they are also used to touching fish.
So James, suddenly asked them to go back at the speed of a rapid march to report the news, just for a very small probability of enemy infiltration, Edward said that he did not understand at all.
"You guys...... Eh, forget it, anyway, you listen to me, and there is nothing wrong with being careful. ”
"Although General MacArthur has repeatedly said that these volunteers are nothing more than third-rate troops dressed in tatters and armed with burning sticks."
"But based on the number of encounters they have had with us since they entered the peninsula, I don't think we should underestimate them, otherwise it will be a big mistake."
James looked at the two American sentries under him still looking disapproving, and he could only sigh helplessly as he spoke.
The two U.S. military sentries under him, one is an old fritter in the army, and the other is a new soldier, both of whom want to touch the fish until the end of the battle, but they have no dedication to the country and the army.
"Oh~ James, what you said is so right, I understand your intentions, but I'm holding back a little uncomfortable now, let's go and make it easier first."
Edward was worried listening to James's words, when suddenly another old American fritter winked at him, and he immediately understood, pretending to be convenient, but in fact he was trying to get a little rest.
"Edward, if that unit is really a volunteer army, you ...... like this"
James was a little annoyed, he couldn't see that these two people were in violation, but halfway through the words, he was pulled aside by the old fritters of the American army who were full of laughter, and a cigarette comforted him to dissipate his anger, not for a while.
The wind was cold like an unreasonable beast, and they were stunned to light the cigarette several times before they lit the cigarette.
Feeling the warm breath in his mouth, James relieved his breath a little and chatted with another American sentry.
At this time, Pinghe, who was hidden in the snow curtain, keenly observed the lone of the American sentries, and he was happy, but he still leaned over lightly.
“Merry merry merry christmas……”
Edward hummed a Merry Christmas song identical to that of some unlucky bastard, enjoying the rare respite in his heart.
The jet of water that was released sprinkled on the snow made a slight clattering sound, and in a short time it turned into a part of the snow and formed into frost.
Just as Edward felt comfortable and was about to finish the solution, he suddenly felt a ghostly chill behind him, sweeping from his back to his spine.
Just as Edward turned his head back with some hesitation to see what was going on, he was suddenly covered by a big hand like an iron tong, and then a shining military thorn stabbed him in the chest.
"Uh-huh......!"
Edward struggled desperately, his legs kept moving, he felt the heart-rending pain in his chest, his eyes widened, and even a trace of tears rushed out.
But Pinghe didn't have the slightest mercy, Leng Jun's face even revealed a sneer His dead general's stabbing was pressed to the deepest, and countless blood flowed quickly down Edward's chest, as if it was draining his strength little by little.
After a while, Edward was motionless, and was slammed to the ground by Pinghe, becoming a soulless corpse.
"Report to the platoon commander, the other comrades of the reconnaissance platoon have already been covered, and the remaining two American devils may be easy to solve, but there is also a team of American sentries who seem to be leaning towards us, about five or six people, what should we do next."
Just as Pinghe slowly wiped the blood stains on the military thorn with Edward's military cotton clothes, Wu Jin, a soldier of the reconnaissance platoon, quickly ran back and said to Pinghe with a slight gasp.
"Let's kill those two American devils first, and then the other team of American sentries will see if they are unlucky and whether they are going to hit the tip of our knife."
Hearing that there were other American troops, Pinghe did not panic in the slightest, but immediately decided to deal with the enemy in front of him first.
After all, only these American soldiers observed the existence of the 7th Interspersed Company, and if the other American sentries did not approach them, he did not want to cause too much trouble and make the American troops prematurely alert.
So Pinghe took Wu Jin and two other reconnaissance platoon soldiers who surrounded him, and quietly approached James's place, and a reconnaissance platoon soldier was closely observing the movements of another group of American troops.
"James, I know that you are rigorous and serious, and you have the glory of being a soldier, but we haven't exchanged fire with the volunteers here, so we don't need to be so nervous."
The old American fritter took a hard puff of his cigarette, felt the wonderful taste of nicotine, obtained a rare trace of smell in this ice and snow, and softly persuaded James.
"No, Edward is just for convenience, why hasn't he come back yet, I'm afraid there is no accident."
James couldn't listen to the arguments of the old fritters of the American army at all, but sensed that something was wrong through time estimation, pressed the flickering cigarette butt in his hand on the snow and extinguished it, and then picked up the gun and wanted to find out.
"No, this American devil is alert, and he must do it in advance!"
Pinghe was still about 10 meters away from James at the moment, and when he saw James pick up his rifle, he simply jumped up from the snow, like a cheetah, quickly rushed in front of James, raised his bayonet and stabbed James in the chest.
"Bang~"
With the muffled sound of his life, it turned out that James, who was full of vigilance, blocked the rifle he had just gotten in front of his chest, just enough to flick away the military spur that was about to end his life.
However, James, who was shocked by the powerful reaction force, was numb, red and swollen, and even almost broke his skin and bled out.
Pinghe didn't expect that his fatal blow would be blocked by the American soldiers, he knew that if he couldn't kill quickly, he might be in trouble, so he hurriedly stabbed again, with a burst of wind, straight into James's heart.
On the other side, the American sentry next to James was stunned for a second in the sound of impact just now, and then his eyes widened in disbelief, understanding that the volunteers had really killed, he gritted his teeth and rushed to Pinghe's back, trying to tightly strangle his neck.
"Die! American devils, who still want to play sneak attack and grandpa, are a little more tender than you. ”
Wu Jin also approached quickly at this time, and then kicked the old American fritter to the ground, picked up the military stab in his hand, and raised the knife in his hand.
The American soldier only had time to wail when there was a bloody hole in his throat, and his trachea and major artery were pierced violently, and the blood sprayed directly on the nearby snow like a small fountain, staining the surrounding ground red.
“shit!”
At this moment, James's eyes widened, he cursed secretly, looked at the cold mang who was getting closer and closer to him, and used the fastest speed in his life to turn his body to the side to avoid Pinghe's stabbing attack.
"Ahh
Even though James had dodged as fast as he could, the spur was only slightly deflected, but it was also deeply stabbed in his left shoulder.
The huge impact and the pain of tearing muscles made James almost faint, but he still gritted his teeth and dragged Pinghe, who was too strong, to the ground, and he fell down with it.
