Luo Yuze felt excruciating pain all over his body. The intense pain made his face turn red, and his eyes widened as if they were about to burst. He roared with all his might, "Don't move! Listen, the Japanese have discovered us. No one can escape now. As soon as the gunfire stops, you go into the tunnel and quickly detonate the explosives!"
In the blink of an eye, Luo Yuze understood his predicament. Only the Japanese garrison could possess such powerful firepower. He and his men were sure to be surrounded, and the special operations team was about to be annihilated.
However, that didn't matter. He had no intention of leaving Qingdao alive, but the mission he was required to carry out had to be completed. This was his only obsession at the moment. So he protected Yu Dehui tightly, wanting Yu Dehui to complete the final detonation. Although it was impossible to detonate at the optimal moment, there were still many dignitaries staying at the guesthouse. As long as the explosion was completed, it could still cause significant casualties.
The gunfire outside intensified, bullets poured into the room, pounding against the walls with loud thuds. Patches of plaster peeled off and scattered everywhere, making the room look as if it had been washed clean by a storm.
Yu Dehui was unaware that Luo Yuze had been hit by two bullets. He said urgently, "Section Chief, I'll cover you. You go and detonate the explosives."
After saying that, he tried to struggle again, but Luo Yuze held him down once more. At this moment, Luo Yuze felt his strength rapidly draining away, and he was about to lose control of Yu Dehui. He said urgently, "I've never been down into the tunnel before, and even with the blueprints, I can't find the explosive point. It's all up to you! Brother, I'm begging you, don't let the brothers die in vain!"
As they were talking, another ricocheted bullet struck Luo Yuze in the back. He felt a tremendous force pierce through his spine and could no longer hold on. His strength dissipated, and his body went limp, collapsing onto Yu Dehui's body.
"No, don't move... Hold on, wait..."
Luo Yuze kept giving instructions, using all his strength to move his body, trying to shield Yu Dehui from more of the situation.
However, his internal organs were bleeding profusely, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth as he spoke, dripping onto Yu Dehui's face. Before long, his voice grew softer and softer until he was completely silent!
He couldn't hold on any longer. Just as he had thought, this was his last mission. Darkness instantly engulfed the light before him, his passion burned out, and he finally sacrificed himself in the arms of his comrades!
Yu Dehui remained motionless in the corner, supporting Luo Yuze's body. Bullets continued to fly, and several more hit Luo Yuze's body, splattering blood.
Tears streamed down Yu Dehui's face. He felt as if his heart had sunk into an abyss, filled with unbearable grief. His mouth felt like it was filled with a bitter gall, so bitter that he wanted to vomit, but he couldn't spit anything out!
The machine gun fire continued relentlessly, the dense bullets enveloping the entire villa. All the special operations team members in the rooms were hit by bullets, their blood splattering everywhere, and they fell one by one into pools of blood. It was a bloody massacre, and the scene was extremely tragic!
The Japanese army's gunfire finally ceased. They knew that under such attacks, the Chinese agents in the villa must have been almost entirely wiped out, and even if there were any survivors, they would be completely incapable of resistance. The commander waved his hand and ordered the various combat teams to quickly approach the villa.
The brief moment of attack felt like an eternity to Yu Dehui. He heard the surroundings quiet down and knew that the enemy was not giving him much time; he had to act quickly.
He wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, turned over and placed Luo Yuze's body aside, and gently closed Luo Yuze's eyes with his hands.
He was going to detonate the explosives. The explosives and detonators were already placed at the blasting point, so he didn't need to carry them. However, he absolutely needed to carry matches and a flashlight. He had matches in his pocket, but he was missing the flashlight. Without it, even if he was familiar with the underground passage, he would lose his way over such a long distance.
He glanced around, leaped up, and grabbed a flashlight from a nearby drawer. But when he pushed the switch, the flashlight didn't light up. He looked up and saw a gun hole on the side of the flashlight; it was broken.
He quickly searched around and soon found another flashlight under the bed. He took it out, pushed the switch, and the light came on. Without hesitation, Yu Dehui rushed out of the room and ran towards the room where the tunnel entrance was located.
The room wasn't far away. He rushed through the broken doorway, took a few steps to the tunnel entrance, squeezed inside, and used both hands and feet to move quickly through the tunnel. Before long, he finally arrived at the pipe entrance.
He entered the pipe, his feet landing on solid ground, stepping on the puddles. He turned on his flashlight and moved quickly forward along the beam of light. He needed to detonate the explosives as quickly as possible, so that his section chief and his brothers wouldn't have sacrificed themselves in vain.
But after running only a few steps, he felt something was wrong. He could vaguely hear breathing, as if he wasn't the only one in this small space.
Just as he was wondering what was going on, the lights in front of him suddenly blazed brightly, and several flashlight beams shone on his face, blinding him and making it impossible for him to see anything clearly.
He instinctively shielded his eyes from the light, but then a burst of gunfire rang out, and bullets from the opposite side rained down on his body, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
Yu Dehui's lips trembled as he gripped the pipe wall, trying his best to stay upright, but in the end he was too weak to support himself and fell backward, landing straight in the water in the pipe.
The flashlight in his hand fell to the side, its beam shining directly on Yu Dehui's face. His eyes were filled with pain and resentment. He died on the spot!
