Chapter 41: Otsutsuki Isshiki
……
Listening to Cang Ben's angry roar, Nie Yunshan first whispered to him to stop shouting, then stepped forward and said in a deep voice:
"Captain Cang Ben, you misunderstood me... I didn't mean to excuse Captain Deng. I just think that if you follow your plan, Captain Deng will not only fail to hold back the Eighth Route Army, but will be defeated by them!
If that is the case, then when we attack He Zhendong's regiment headquarters, we will be attacked from both sides by the enemy, which is very disadvantageous to us..."
"Search and kill him..."
After listening to Nie Yunshan's explanation, Kuramoto quickly realized the seriousness of the problem. Their unit was a special advance team that Captain Koizumi had formed with great difficulty under the order of the division commander and with the help of the Special High Technology Department. If they suffered serious casualties in the first actual combat, not only would they not be able to explain to their superiors, but the entire division would also be brought into disgrace.
"Nie Sang, I know you're worried, but we have successfully infiltrated the Chinese Army. If we give up the attack, the reputation of our Koizumi Advance Team will suffer a devastating blow!
For the honor of our battalion and even the division, we must destroy the 21st Regiment and never let them succeed in their rebellion!"
Hearing this, looking at Cangben with a determined look on his face, Nie Yunshan also frowned deeply.
For a moment, he began to regret his decision.
Nearly two months ago, when the autumn sweep was more than halfway through, the Japanese high-ranking officers were very angry because they were very dissatisfied with the performance of conventional warfare behind enemy lines.
In view of the fact that the Japanese army will not be able to increase its troops on a large scale in southern Shanxi for some time to come, in order to improve the efficiency of operations behind enemy lines, at the request of the 69th Division's Infantry Battalion Captain Koizumi, the 69th Division made a decision in Shangcheng to begin secretly forming a special force - the Koizumi Special Advance Team - with the help of the Japanese intelligence agency, the Special High Technology Bureau.
In view of the outstanding performance of the Japanese sabotage squad in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the Japanese army in southern Shanxi began to try to train special operations forces that were different from conventional troops on the basis of drawing on previous experiences and lessons in the occupied areas.
In order to infiltrate smoothly behind enemy lines, the Japanese army selected elite combat personnel from an entire division and, with the help of the Special High Technology Department, conducted systematic training for the personnel of the Special Advance Team.
These personnel not only have excellent skills and tactics, but are also good at using various weapons from both China and Japan. Most importantly, more than half of them can communicate with the Chinese without any obstacles.
At the same time, the Japanese army also specially selected dozens of backbone members of the Imperial Army to be sent to the Special High Technology Department for training, so that they could master various infiltration combat techniques, and then reorganized these puppet troops who were familiar with Chinese customs and habits into the advance team to strengthen the combat effectiveness and camouflage effect of the advance team. Nie Yunshan, the former captain of the Xia County Guard, was a leader among this group of personnel. A few days ago, after receiving the news that the 21st Regiment suddenly mutinied, the Japanese army in Yuncheng area mobilized troops to prepare for the encirclement and suppression, and sent out the newly formed Koizumi Advance Team, asking them to disguise themselves as troops from the Fifth War Zone of the Communist Party of China, and try to infiltrate the 21st Regiment’s base and attack the 21st Regiment’s command agency, in order to cooperate with the Japanese and puppet troops rushing in from the periphery to completely destroy the 21st Regiment.
Completely annihilate this ** guerrilla force in southern Shanxi and achieve the goal of deterring other puppet troops.
The Koizumi Advance Team, which secretly entered the battlefield from the south of Hengqu, had only a squadron of 180 people, but was equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment.
In addition to the infantry being equipped with the standard weapons of the Japanese army, the Zhongzheng rifle and the Czech rifle, they were even equipped with three grenade launchers and two 60 mortars. Not only that, they also carried the most advanced individual light radio of the Japanese army, so that they could keep in touch with the Japanese troops in the rear at any time.
So, although this unit is small in number, they are indeed the most elite unit of the Japanese army in this generation.
……
After thinking carefully for a while, Nie Yunshan looked at Cang Ben with a red face and suddenly asked seriously:.
"Captain Cang Ben, I heard that this He Zhendong is a student from a serious military academy?"
"Well... yes, according to the intelligence we received, he is a graduate of the Nanjing Central Military Academy."
Hearing this, Nie Yunshan nodded, thought for a moment, raised his eyebrows, and then chuckled.
"Got it! ... I have a way to make the Eighth Route Army leave Lishan Town on their own!"
"What? Nie Sang, are you sure you can do it?"
"Yes... As long as He Zhendong is a graduate of the Central Military Academy, then I have a way!"
……
3:30 in the afternoon, at the headquarters of the 21st Regiment.
Watching Xue Liqun's angry back gradually walking away, He Zhendong, with a pale face, sighed long and looked up to the sky, then sat down helplessly, covering his wound.
"Commander, the Eighth Route Army is sincere to us, and what you are doing is really not excessive!
We can't forget all the favors we have shown to others just because we have a way out now, right! ? "
……
Looking at the acting team leader He Zhendong sitting on the chair, Yang Yuanhua pursed his lips, but finally couldn't help but speak his true feelings.
Just now, He Zhendong suddenly called Xue Liqun over, and then politely ordered him to leave.
Faced with He Zhendong's act of turning his back on him, Xue Liqun expressed his protest, then angrily threw the cup and left.
Looking up at Yang Yuanhua who looked puzzled, He Zhendong sighed and then took out a telegram.
"Look, this is the second telegram the Fifth War Zone just sent us."
"And a telegram? Didn't we just receive one?"
Stunned upon hearing this, Yang Yuanhua quickly walked forward, picked up the telegram, and read it carefully.
A few minutes later, Yang Yuanhua handed the telegram to the other party with an unpleasant expression and said angrily:
"What is all this?! We have clearly made contributions, so it would be fine if the Fifth War Zone didn't praise us, but why would they reprimand us so harshly?
Also, what is the meaning of sending military and political officials to supervise? It's already this late, and they are still doing this!"
Looking at Yang Yuanhua with an angry face, He Zhendong slowly stood up and spread his hands helplessly towards him.
"Yuanhua..., we are guilty after all...
Once a person's life is tainted, some things are hard to explain... It is reasonable for the Military and Political Department to send people to supervise, after all, we are also a unit that surrendered to the devils... "
Hearing this, Yang Yuanhua seemed to suddenly understand something.
"Commander, are you afraid that the people from the Military and Political Department will see the Eighth Route Army and
Will we have a bigger picture?”
"Well... I don't want this to happen, but we have to return to the Fifth War Zone after all. If we give others an advantage over us, I'm afraid our brothers will have a harder time in the future..."
Hearing this, Yang Yuanhua nodded. Although he was dissatisfied, he could only acquiesce. After all, He Zhendong's concerns were still very realistic.
……
"By the way, Commander, what should we do with the dozens of seriously injured soldiers in our battalion? Should we retreat south with them?"
Just as he was about to leave, Yang Yuanhua suddenly thought of the forty-odd people whose families were injured when his troops attacked the puppet army's stronghold. These people's wounds had just been re-treated by Dr. Shao that morning, and many of them were still waiting for Dr. Shao to continue the operation.
Hearing Yang Yuanhua's question, He Zhendong slowly stood up and said with a guilty look on his face:
"We may encounter some fierce battles on the road to the south. The injured brothers will suffer if they follow us. I just discussed it with Commander Xue, and he agreed to leave doctors to continue treating the wounded. After we leave, they will bring people back to transfer all the wounded to their base."
"Oh..., that's the best. These brothers are veterans who have followed you through life and death for many years. If you just leave them here, I'm really afraid that many brothers will be upset...
Now the Eighth Route Army is willing to help them, it's really... Oh... Never mind, I won't say it anymore!"
Having said that, Yang Yuanhua sighed, turned around and strode out of the lobby.
……
Four p.m.
Standing outside the temporary base, looking at the team assembling in front of him, Zhao Shixun gave a final instruction to the youngest brother who was temporarily staying in Lishan Town with Shao Mengru, asking him to ensure Dr. Shao's safety.
Not long ago, the angry Xue Liqun returned to the base and announced He Zhendong's request for the independent detachment to temporarily leave the town.
Seeing the 21st Regiment's inhumane behavior, many soldiers of the independent detachment were furious. Almost in the midst of a chorus of curses, the independent detachment quickly assembled. In addition to leaving the second platoon leader of the second company and fifteen soldiers to protect the safety of the temporary hospital, Zhao Shixun, in accordance with Xue Liqun's instructions, prepared to lead the rest of the large force to quickly evacuate Lishan Town and temporarily camp in a valley five miles away, waiting for the 21st Regiment to evacuate before entering the town to take the wounded away.
Zhao Shixun was very welcome to the move of receiving more than 40 wounded soldiers from the 21st Regiment. In his opinion, these ** veterans who had participated in the Zhongtiaoshan Battle were rare and valuable.
Although these people can only lie on stretchers and seem to be a burden to the independent detachment, Zhao Shixun knows that as long as they can recover, they will definitely be rare non-commissioned officer seeds.
Although they are from the ** background, Zhao Shixun believes that as long as Zhou Yu does a good job of ideological work in the later stage, these veterans will definitely become the backbone of the independent detachment!
Through these two days' understanding, Zhao Shixun knew that unlike the miscellaneous troops in the second and third battalions, Yang Yuanhua's battalion was composed of subordinates of the former chief of staff He Zhendong, and was the backbone of the 21st Regiment's combat power, so their wounded were definitely worth taking in!
"Comrades, listen to my command! Everyone turn left! March in step...!"
Following Zhou Yu's order, more than seventy soldiers of the independent detachment formed a neat column and quickly left the town from the west along the main road in the middle of the town.

Many book friends expressed sympathy for Hanhai. After all, this kind of realistic style of writing is not very popular in this exaggerated online literature world.

Chapter 42 Genin
"The Blood Feather Tower was indeed destroyed, just a month ago, and this force disappeared overnight."
Guo Xu, who was standing by, also looked at Lin Yun in doubt and said thoughtfully, "Many people are suspicious now. Maybe it has something to do with the forces behind you."
As one of the quasi-hegemonic forces in Youzhou City, it has stood for a thousand years. Even a hegemon like Xuanyang Palace cannot easily wipe it out. It can be imagined that the Blood Feather Tower has some background.
Among the powerful people on the surface, there are at least three Tianpo, and the hidden strength is only stronger.
But overnight, it disappeared completely.
Lin Yun was stunned when he heard this. No wonder the two of them looked at him strangely. On that day in the Kushuo Sea, the hatred between him and Xueyu Tower was so great that it could not be resolved. Now that it was destroyed, it was inevitable that people would associate it with him.
"No, behind me is Lingxiao Sword Pavilion. Although there are two Tianpo seniors in Sword Pavilion, they should not be enough to destroy Xueyu Tower overnight."
Lin Yun was shocked, but his face remained expressionless. He had some guesses, but it was inconvenient to tell them.
If it was really as he thought, the pressure on him would undoubtedly be much greater.
Seeing that Lin Yun didn't seem to be lying, Yang Fan said, "It seems that the Blood Feather Tower must have provoked an existence that should not be provoked."
The Nanhua Ancient Domain is so large that it makes sense that there are powerful Star Lords who have never come out of the world. There have been similar examples in the past. A force stronger than the Blood Feather Tower killed a descendant of a hidden Star Lord and was immediately wiped out.
Guo Xu thought about it and it was true. If it was really the strong man behind Lin Yun who did it, he would not have been in such a miserable state that day.
They don't even need the support of Tianfu Academy to get through the difficult times.
"You came to Leizhou for the Dragon Feast and the final experience, right?"
Yang Fan looked at Lin Yun. Two months ago, he became famous in one battle. Now, looking at him again, he seemed a little unfathomable and inscrutable.
Although his cultivation level had not changed, the feeling he gave was that it was much stronger.
Thinking about how I have become stronger in the past two months, the gap between me and Lin Yun seems to have become even bigger.
"That's it."
Lin Yun did not deny it.
Guo Xu added: "If you want to gain experience, then Leizhou is the right place to come. Among the nine provinces in the southern region, Leizhou is the strongest. Most of the rookies and masters gather here."
"Is there such a saying?"
Lin Yun didn't think too much about it. He came to Leizhou mainly to explore the ruins of the Sword Sect.
Guo Xu and Yang Fan looked at each other, smiling. They were a little surprised that Lin Yun didn't even know this. After a pause, Yang Fan said softly, "Let me tell you, there are nine overlords in the Nanhua Ancient Domain, but the ranking of overlords is also different. For example, the Xuanyang Palace in Youzhou can only be ranked at the bottom. The top three of the nine forces are Ziyue Cave Heaven, Beixue Mountain Villa, and Tianyao Pavilion. Ziyue Cave
