“Captain, we have a situation～”
“About 20 Japanese and puppet troops are escorting a truck from over there, they'll be here in about 5 minutes.”
Upon hearing this.
Everyone was startled and immediately became alert.
Su Yang's heart skipped a beat.
“Just as I was about to ask for a pillow, someone brought me one～”
“Don't panic everyone, this should be the enemy's transport convoy!”
“Shui Sheng, you take the first squad and immediately take cover on the opposite hillside, prepare for battle, gunshots will be our signal!”
“Gou Sheng, you take the second squad and go up ahead there, wait for orders～”
“The third squad will deploy in place～”
“Yes!”
Su Yang had already paid attention to the terrain, so he quickly completed the deployment.
Although it was a bit hasty, there were many ‘veterans’ in each squad, so facing only 20 Japanese and puppets should not be a problem.
Moreover, this was not a regular fight!
Although Zhang Liang had said he wouldn’t give them much material support, he had a change of heart in the end, and before Su Yang left, he had managed to gather 10 rifles, 100 bullets, 30 grenades, and some food for them.
A good start, to say the least.
This was why Su Yang was confident in dealing with 20 Japanese and puppets.
Now, the sound of the car engine came.
Su Yang and the others’ gazes focused on the direction of the sound.
A moment later.
A truck appeared in their sight, escorted by the enemy.
Because the back of the truck was covered with tarpaulin, it was impossible to determine what it was carrying, but based on the speed and condition of the tires, as well as the escorting Japanese and puppets, it was likely supplies.
Su Yang silently calculated whether to ambush them.
There were only two Japanese soldiers in the escorting team, the rest were puppet troops, which meant that this was just a routine supply transportation.
This was exactly the kind of supplies he needed.
With a three-pronged attack, Su Yang believed that he could take down this enemy force and seize their supplies.
As long as the two Japanese soldiers on the truck were eliminated, as for the puppet troops running alongside, they weren’t much of a threat.
The Japanese soldiers would die, and his fierce attack would certainly make the puppet troops surrender.
Thinking of this.
Su Yang aimed at the Japanese soldier driving the truck, waiting for it to enter the ambush zone before decisively pulling the trigger.
“Bang!”
Only a few dozen meters away, it was child’s play for Su Yang’s marksmanship.
The Japanese driver was instantly killed.
The truck also crashed into a ditch nearby.
As Su Yang’s gunshot rang out, Shui Sheng, who had been prepared, shot and killed the other Japanese soldier in a perfectly coordinated move.
At the same time, the other members also opened fire and threw grenades.
In an instant.
The escorting Japanese and puppets were caught off guard.
The two Japanese soldiers were instantly killed.
The remaining puppet troops were caught off guard by such a blow, they were still running to escort when the bullets came whistling, causing casualties all around.
One sharp-eyed puppet troop saw that the Japanese soldiers and their platoon leader had been killed, and faced with such an offensive, he immediately lost his fighting spirit, and cried out in panic.
“Don’t shoot, I surrender!!!”
They had long been dissatisfied with the preferential treatment given to the Japanese, and now that the supervising Japanese and their officer were dead, they naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to fight to the death.
Once someone shouted surrender, the remaining puppet troops immediately stopped shooting and hid in the cover, not daring to move.
This scene stunned Su Yang and the others who were about to launch a charge.
Su Yang hadn't expected this outcome.
However, Su Yang did not take it lightly, he shouted: “Lay down your weapons and you won’t be killed, those who wish to surrender raise their hands and slowly walk out!”
He then left some people behind to guard the area and led others forward.
The puppet troops hesitated for a while before taking action.
After all, no one was willing to take that risk.
While the puppet troops were hesitating.
Su Yang and his men had already pressed forward, and those puppet troops who still wanted to fight back were directly shot dead.
“Don’t make a futile resistance!”
“Otherwise, this will be your end!”
At this moment, the remaining puppet troops had no choice but to surrender.
The entire ambush took only about ten minutes.
And the company suffered no casualties.
When the puppet troops saw who captured them, all of them were dumbfounded.
Were these bandits or the Eighth Route?
Because Su Yang and his men were not in uniform and their weapons were uneven, it was difficult for the puppet troops to tell whether the ambush force was bandits or the Eighth Route.
It wasn’t until a member checked the truck and excitedly called to Su Yang: “Captain, you have to see this, we’ve struck gold～”
Did the puppet troops understand that the people in front of them were the Eighth Route.
They were just wondering, when did the Eighth Route become so powerful?
After making arrangements, Su Yang went to the truck.
When he saw what was being unloaded, Su Yang couldn’t help but smile.
Just as he had expected.
This was just a transport team supplying other strongholds.
Mainly food, as well as some daily necessities, and some ammunition.
With these supplies, his start would have a certain ‘foundation’.
“Not bad!”
“Move everything!”
“Yes!”
Then he went to the surrendering puppet troops.
This scene made the puppet troops shudder.
Su Yang’s decisive action had made them fear for their lives.
Su Yang glanced at the remaining puppet troops and coldly asked, “Do you want to die or live?”
