That night.
"boom--"
In the pitch-black night, with stars scattered across the sky, another dazzling streak of light streaked across the horizon and crashed to the ground.
A huge explosion followed, and the entire island trembled.
After a while, when there was no further sound after the explosion, Ge Shaoting was sure he was safe. He loosened his arms that were tightly protecting his head, endured the ringing in his ears, shook off the thick layer of dust and gravel on his head, and looked up at the huge crater that had just been blown out.
"Ugh, another mouthful of ash. These people are doing this on purpose, aren't they? Why do they keep targeting this spot? Can't they find another place?"
Just then, a person came running up. Seeing that he was alright and could even complain, he was finally relieved and hurriedly said, "It's alright now, come with me!"
Ge Shaoting obediently got up. "Yang Zheng, how's the situation on your end? It's been bombing for almost half the night. Every time I light a torch, a shell follows. Those people are using me as a scapegoat!"
“They’re running low on ammunition.” Yang Zheng wiped the sweat and blood from his face, his eyes resolute.
"Almost all the traps we set during the day were triggered. It's probably because of the relatively high terrain that the enemy could see the fire at a glance. So, the target point we used to attract artillery shells is the most heavily attacked place here. Thank you for your hard work."
Chu Xin said that after the bombardment, they would most likely search the island immediately, and people would arrive soon.
"That's more like it." Ge Shaoting was finally able to laugh. "It wasn't for nothing that I got all covered in dirt. Let's hurry up and get the stuff so we can set the trap."
During the day, after Chu Xin returned from her rounds, she devised a plan to divide her forces into three groups.
When it got completely dark, she first went to burn down the enemy's encampment to throw them into chaos. Ge Shaoting and Yang Zheng set up two separate fire points to lure the enemy deeper into their territory while simultaneously depleting their artillery ammunition.
Because of his mobility issues, Hu Kan was taught by Chu Xin how to modify simple landmines. He spent the afternoon handcrafting a number of tripwire booby traps, which were waiting for them to install.
The two talked and soon disappeared from sight.
Soon after, a rustling sound began to rise from afar and gradually approached, continuing for nearly half an hour before everything returned to calm.
At this moment, Chu Xin was standing on a towering Hopea tree, nearly 60 or 70 meters above the ground, which allowed her to see almost half of the island's activity.
Because of the presence of the black meteorite, she did not rashly use her supernatural abilities, but only used a telescope to look into the distance, while listening carefully to the sounds in the night.
She smiled and immediately looked over with her binoculars when she heard the sound of footsteps moving southwest from the location of the Japanese troops stationed there.
Although it was difficult to see clearly in the darkness, it was certain that a group of people were heading towards the prepared path to death.
"Hmm, not bad."
Looking back, they discovered that some people remained motionless in the dilapidated camp, where the flames were still blazing.
"As expected, once the enemy gets smart, it's us who will be in trouble."
Chu Xin muttered to herself, put away her binoculars, and nimbly climbed down from the tree.
The moment their feet touched the ground, a series of explosions rang out in the distance, interspersed with gunshots.
Her eyes lit up immediately, knowing that Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting had succeeded. A flash of cold light appeared in her hand as her Tang sword reappeared, and she ran like the wind towards the camp of the Japanese.
She rushed to a wide-open flat area before stopping, where a large number of people were waiting in ambush.
The old man in the kimono stood in the very center.
As soon as Chu Xin appeared, those people locked onto her and quickly drew their weapons to confront her.
Looking around, Chu Xin walked straight ahead without pausing. She made a move as she passed the first person, kicking out anyone who didn't have time to swing their knife. Anyone within the range of the blade was killed with a single blow if possible.
