Seeing the Japanese Army’s firepower intensifying, Tang Zhangshan shouted, "Find cover! Advance in turns!" The team members responded quickly. Some dove into nearby craters or behind rocks to provide cover fire, while others leveraged their comrades' suppressive fire to sprint toward new cover. Under Tang Zhangshan’s command, the guerrillas moved like a pack of fierce leopards, clutching their Thompson submachine guns as they charged through the hail of bullets, gradually closing in on the Japanese Army.

Moving with stealth and speed under the cover of chaos and smoke, they secured an excellent vantage point. Once the guerrillas entered their range, a glint of malice flashed in the Japanese machine gunner’s eyes, and he opened fire without hesitation.
"Rat-tat-tat!" A dense rain of bullets poured down. Several guerrillas were hit and fell before they could even react, their bodies shuddering under the impact of the rounds as blood instantly soaked the ground beneath them.
