Chapter 339: Success or Failure



Falk Pinto, hiding in the dark jungle, looked at everything in front of him with bloodshot eyes.

He didn't expect that the Japanese were so vigilant and reacted so quickly.

It is impossible to retreat at this time.

Without hesitation, he yelled, "Go!"

Regardless of anything, he got up from the ground and rushed towards the Japanese camp.

Nathan beside him wanted to stop him, but failed. He could only watch Falk Pinto rush out desperately with only a wooden stick in his hand.

Without having time to think, Nathan got up from the ground, picked up the stones around him and threw them at the Japanese camp.

After throwing more than ten stones, I found that there were no more stones around me.

He looked at the figures that kept rushing out of the darkness, gritted his teeth, picked up the wooden stick beside him without hesitation, and rushed out.

...

...

The prisoners, armed with the most primitive weapons, rushed towards the Japanese who were hastily responding.

This is clearly an asymmetrical battle.

The prisoners, who were already at an absolute disadvantage, burst out with unprecedented courage.

But the huge gap in weapons and equipment cannot be changed.

Kobayashi Hisasaku's advance warning did not make all the Japanese ready in advance.

But it also forced most of the armed Japanese to join the battle early.

When Nathan, the skinny man with dry eyes, rushed out of the jungle, the sound of rapid firing from light machine guns was heard in the Japanese camp.

Nathan saw with his own eyes the bearded Falk Pinto knock down a Japanese with a stick and snatch the man's rifle.

But he raised his gun and fired only one bullet before being hit by three or four bullets.

He also saw his companions falling around him, as well as the deserters who were afraid to face such a tragic scene and turned to flee into the jungle.

But these people could not escape the bullets fired from the Japanese camp.

The Japanese camp was not an open area. If you wanted to rush in, you had to rush through three narrow passages less than ten meters long.

But now, these three passages are like a natural moat, blocking all the prisoners who want to rush in outside the passages.

The passage was already littered with corpses. Nathan was stunned when he saw this situation.

Then he picked up the stick in his hand and rushed forward regardless of anything, as if he had gone mad.

It was not until he was shot three times that he fell to the ground with an unwilling look on his face.

The glasses, which were tied together with something unknown, fell to the ground and broke into four pieces.

The lens continued to reflect the flashing gunfire.

The entire battle lasted less than half an hour, and there were corpses lying all over the area near the camp.

Mizuno Nobuyoshi nodded with satisfaction and said to Kobayashi Hisasaku beside him:

"Xiao Lin-kun, veterans like you who have participated in wars are indeed amazing.

Surprisingly, because there were no more birds singing or insects chirping in the jungle, I could tell they were approaching.

The soldiers of our Great Japanese Empire are indeed the strongest in the world.

Hahaha……"

Kobayashi Hisasaku was also very satisfied when he saw the corpses scattered all over the ground. When he heard Mizuno Nobuyoshi's praise, he smiled in a reserved manner and said:

“Mizuno-kun, you’re too kind! These prisoners have not received any training at all.

Just attacking and charging is no use to them."

Mizuno Nobuyoshi was very satisfied with Kobayashi Hisasaku's humility and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

He pointed at the corpses scattered all over the ground and laughed:

“Haha…look at the current situation.

At least three hundred people have fallen here, and there shouldn't be many left.

Tomorrow morning, we will turn their camp upside down.

Kill all the remaining people.

From now on, this island will completely belong to us.”

When Kobayashi Hisasaku heard this, he instinctively wanted to speak out to stop it.

Because in his opinion, it would be difficult to catch the remaining people in one fell swoop early tomorrow morning.

Unless the other party is a fool, he will not dare to run back to the camp under such circumstances.

But think about it, Mizuno Nobuyoshi is in a very proud moment right now, and if I raise objections at this time, it might cause dissatisfaction on his part.

I could only suppress the urge to dissuade him.

Whispered flatteringly:

"Mizuno-kun is right. As long as we kill all the remaining people, this island will completely belong to you.

Here I would like to congratulate Mizuno-kun in advance for expanding the territory of the empire.

Such achievements will surely go down in history.”

Mizuno Nobuyoshi was also in high spirits and very proud at this moment.

Hearing this, he also burst into laughter.

He patted Kobayashi Hisasaku's shoulder vigorously and said:

“Hahaha… Kobayashi-kun, I will definitely report your contribution truthfully.

When the time comes, let's wait together for His Majesty Tianhuang's reward!

By the way, the flag of the Empire of Japan that we prepared can be hung up tomorrow.

We want to tell all Japanese people that we overseas Chinese also have our hearts set on Japan and Tianhuang.”

For a veteran who participated in the Russo-Japanese War, being able to raise the Japanese flag in a foreign land was an honor that was hard to refuse.

This means that from this time on, Japan completed the actual occupation of the island.

That is what he and Mizuno Nobuyoshi said about expanding Japan's territory.

Of course, they are not worried about whether this will be recognized by the Japanese government.

Because, in their minds, Brazil and Japan were already at war, and they raised their own flags on the enemy's territory.

And actually occupying an island is a huge achievement.

As for how the Brazilian government will view this matter, they are not worried.

This was originally an island used by the Brazilian government to exile prisoners. It is conceivable how much importance the Brazilian government attaches to this island.

Once all the Brazilian prisoners on the island are killed, the island will become an island where only Japanese people live.

After a period of development, everyone can claim that the island has been an overseas territory of Japan since ancient times.

After all, all the people living there are Japanese.

Therefore, Kobayashi Hisasaku stood up very excitedly, bowed deeply to Mizuno Nobuyoshi and said:

“Hayi!

Ono-kun, this will be our most glorious moment.

Please allow me to guard the flag for you."

The so-called flag protection means protecting the flag.

Kobayashi Hisasaku's meaning was also very clear. Such an important matter as raising the flag must be personally handled by Mizuno Nobuyoshi.

Then he wanted to become a flag bearer and assist Mizuno Nobuyoshi in raising the Japanese flag on this island.

In his opinion, this is a matter of great honor.

Mizuno Xinyi did not refuse this request.

After all, Kobayashi Hisasaku is the only Japanese on the island who can truly help him.

He was also the second-in-command selected by himself, and he was the most suitable person to be the flag bearer.

"Very good, Kobayashi-kun.

Then tomorrow morning, the two of us will personally raise the flag of the Empire of Japan on this island.

You will share this honor with me."

"Hayi!"

Just as Nathan had guessed, the Japanese had never thought of rushing into the jungle in the dark to hunt them down.

Therefore, all the prisoners who escaped back to the jungle successfully escaped from the guns of the Japanese.

But now, out of a team of one thousand people, after two battles, there are only more than one hundred people who can still function normally.

In the dark jungle, Clay Hope, a white-headed sparrow, stumbled all the way back to the camp, covered in mud and in a miserable state.

"Sir, what do we do now?"

The middle-aged man who had been following Clay Hope was also terrified at this moment.

The white-headed old man did not answer his question. Instead, he slumped down on the wooden bench, with a bewildered look on his face, staring blankly at the inky black forest.

The dense forest at this moment is like a giant beast that chooses its prey, exuding a terrifying aura.

The white-headed bird trembled all over and shivered.

The middle-aged man next to him was shocked by this scene and quickly reached out to touch his forehead.

I found that the forehead of the white-headed bird was burning hot. It turned out that I didn't know when the white-headed bird started to have a fever.

This made the middle-aged man nearby very anxious, and he searched everywhere in the camp.

Find a blanket and wrap the white-crowned crane tightly.

"Sir, are you okay?"

"Sir, you have a fever!"

"Sir, are you feeling better?"

No matter how the middle-aged man called out to the white-headed bird, he didn't move at all, which made everyone in the camp very anxious.

Everyone was talking about it. Having just experienced such a heavy loss, everyone was in a panic.

The only backbone, the white-headed Clay Hope, seemed to be under a witchcraft.

This made everyone even more anxious.

"What now?"

"Let's run!"

"The island is so small, where can we go?"

"What should we do? Should we wait for the Japanese dwarfs to come and kill us all?"

"Or we should surrender!"

"Will the Japanese accept our surrender?"

"Are you stupid? Life on this island is already difficult, and it's hard to survive. How can a little Japanese dwarf keep a prisoner like you for free?"

"Then what should we do? We can't jump into the sea, right?"

"Wouldn't jumping into the sea be suicide? It would be better to fight the Japanese dwarfs."

"Fight? How can we fight? They have guns. Are we going to fight them with the sticks in our hands?"

"Ah! If we had weapons in our hands, we would never have lost so miserably!"

"You are talking nonsense. Where are we? How could we have weapons?"

"Then tell me, what should we do now? So many of our brothers are injured!"

"I can't even take care of myself, how can I have time to take care of them!"

The chaos around him seemed to be automatically filtered out by the white-crowned crane's ears and had no effect on him at all.

He just stared blankly at the dark jungle.

No one slept that night, and before they knew it, the sky was turning pale.

Everyone knew that their situation would become even more difficult once daybreak came.

It was at this time that the white-crowned crane, which had been in a daze, stood up as if it had received some new stimulation.

The middle-aged man sitting next to him was startled.

"Sir, are you okay?"

The middle-aged man thought he would not get a response, but this time he heard the voice of the old man.

After a night, the other person's voice had become very hoarse, like the sound of metal rubbing against glass.

But the sound was so soft that the middle-aged man had to put his head in front of the white-headed bird to barely hear it.

"Run, everyone, scatter and hide deep in the jungle.

Don't gather together and give the Japanese a chance to wipe us all out."

"But... sir, if we hide in the jungle without food, we won't be able to survive for long."

“Distribute all the food in the camp and let everyone take it away. The rest is up to everyone.

We have to hold on as long as we can. Run quickly. As soon as the day breaks, the Japanese will come after us.

If you don’t run now, it will be too late.”

The white-headed old man's voice was hoarse, and it seemed as if he had spoken these words with all his strength.

The middle-aged man looked up at the sky which was already turning pale and realized that time was urgent and he could not delay any longer.

He quickly turned around and conveyed the white-headed old man's instructions to everyone.

Everyone who had not slept all night suddenly became panicked when they heard this.

The camp was instantly in chaos, and everyone started fighting and scrambling for food.

Some people, however, ran directly into the dense jungle without caring about anything.

The middle-aged man was also a little panicked when he saw this scene, but he still suppressed the urge to turn around and run away, and returned to the white-headed old man and said:

"Sir, let's go too!"
