At the end of the runway, hidden in a dirt pit over 300 meters from the airport, Qin Shuli watched the plane taxiing along the tarmac with icy eyes.
He had spent a long time searching his space warehouse before finally selecting a ZB vz. 26 light machine gun—the weapon the Eighth Route Army referred to as the "Czech light machine gun." This weapon had an effective range of over 1,000 meters, outperforming both the Japanese "Woodpecker" and the German MG42 general-purpose machine gun. Beyond its impressive range, it featured a 20-round magazine—more than enough to take down a pathetic plane.
He switched the selector to automatic, disengaged the safety, and lay flat on the slope of the pit, aiming directly at the runway.
