Chapter 689 I'm waiting for them at the Xiangjiang Bridge
Xiang Chu put on a mask, picked up the sniper rifle and went to the window.
His sharp eyes swept over everyone outside the car.
There is a bustling market with a stage on the roadside ahead.
The classic Huagu Opera show "Liu Hai Cutting Wood" is being performed on the stage.
The actors performed passionately on the stage and the audience applauded enthusiastically below the stage.
The local gentry were waiting by the roadside, greeting the officers and soldiers of the 34th Army enthusiastically.
Xiang Chu picked up the loudspeaker and ordered, "Lao Gan! Stop marching and rest where you are. Park the three armored vehicles next to the market. I want to find the last Japanese assassin, Daxiong Xiaozheng."
Gan Rong quickly responded: "Understood!"
Kong Ling said angrily: "Her father! Can the last Japanese assassin be in this market?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! The Japanese Olympic shooting champion Xiaolu Shisanlang assassinated the commander of the 91st Army, Wu Huahu, at the Liulin Town market.
I bet the Japanese Olympic shooting runner-up Daxiong Xiaozheng will definitely not admit defeat and will also want to assassinate me here."
Yu Xiaowan said thoughtfully: "It is very likely that the second place is the most dissatisfied with the first place."
As the three men were talking, the elite assault division stopped advancing.
The elite soldiers of the Elite Assault Division were dispatched and surrounded the stage.
The wounded who had attended the opera and the banquet happily got off the car and walked towards the gentry.
Xiang Chu searched carefully and an unnatural smile appeared on his face.
Yu Xiaowan asked anxiously: "Brother Chu! Have you found the assassin?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Of course! The devils are so silly and cute that they are willing to use the Olympic shooting runner-up as an assassin. They are really willing to spend a lot of money to invade China."
Kong Ling said angrily, "Her father! You can still laugh. How powerful is it for an Olympic shooting runner-up to be an assassin? Get rid of him quickly."
Xiang Chu sneered, "Your shooting skills are great, but your lurking skills are rubbish. You dare to pretend to be a country gentleman and deceive me into watching a show. You must be tired of living."
Yu Xiaowan said anxiously, "My dear brother! Please shoot him to death. You are so patient."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "This guy is too cunning, always hiding behind the gentry. And he is also looking for my whereabouts everywhere. I think he has a bomb tied to his body. He must be shot dead."
At this time, Gan Rong reported through the loudspeaker:
"Commander! The squires are very unhappy to hear that you are not present."
Xiang Chu stared at the assassin intently and said anxiously, "Xiao Wan! Tell Gan Rong that the short man in gray hiding behind the gentry is the Japanese assassin Daxiong Xiaozheng, and he may have a bomb tied to his body. It is probably him who led the gentry to invite dinner and said I want to see him, so let him come and meet me."
Kong Ling asked anxiously: "Send the Japanese assassin to meet?"
Yu Xiaowan smiled and said, "Don't worry! Are we men afraid of assassins?"
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly called out to Gan Rong.
Gan Rong got out of the car personally and invited the leading gentry to come out and meet him.
As Xiang Chu expected, the leading local gentry was indeed Daxiong Xiaozheng.
And he dreams of proving that he is no worse than the Olympic champion.
Daxiong Xiaozheng put his hands in his pockets and walked out from behind the squire.
He was hesitating whether to pull the fuse and die together with the Chinese people around him.
But the opportunity was right in front of him, and he still wanted to complete the ultimate goal of this trip to China - killing Chu Xi, commander of the 34th Army.
"Bang!" There was a sound.
The crisp sound of gunfire shattered his dream.
He was shot in the forehead and fell to the ground with a bang.
The gentry cried out: "The soldiers killed people!"
"Mr. Xiong is a very good man."
"He's a devil!"
Gan Rong shouted angrily.
He hurriedly squatted down and slowly pulled Daxiong Xiaozheng's hand out of his pocket, with the fuse on his finger.
A soldier rushed forward and unbuttoned Daxiong Xiaozheng's shirt, revealing two circles of TNT bombs inside.
Gan Rong searched Daxiong and Xiaozheng and found guns, ammunition, silver medals, Japanese yen, notebooks and other items, and placed them in front of the gentry one by one.
He opened his diary and said, "This assassin is called Daxiong Xiaozheng. He killed hundreds of our compatriots. Do you still think he is a good person?"
The people exclaimed:
"This person turned out to be a devil."
“He also contributed funds to maintain the road to the market.”
"You really know people, faces but not hearts."
It was not advisable to stay here for long, so Xiang Chu led his troops further south.
Yu Xiaowan smiled and said, "Brother Chu! Why don't we provoke Okamura Ningchi by saying that we killed the third assassin he sent out?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Just say it if you want to! Report it to our Supreme Command and let Wu Xing's New 1st Army know too."
Kong Ling said unhappily: "No matter how many merits we have made, they are not merits. What's the point of reporting them to the Supreme Command?"
Xiang Chu comforted him: "Dear! We are fighting for the survival of our country and nation. Merit is not important."
Wuhan, the office of the commander of the Japanese 11th Army.
Okamura Ningchi was drinking tea and chatting with Doihara Ken'e.
Doihara Kan'ei was very diligent in adding water to Okamura Ning'a, intending to take advantage of Okamura going to the toilet to once again steal his seal and cheat a battalion from the Kyushu Division.
However, Okamura Ningchi seemed to be particularly good at holding his urine, and he remained as still as a mountain after drinking more than 20 cups.
Doihara Kan'ei was helpless and was about to change his strategy to successfully lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Ono Zhihua rushed in and handed the telegram sent by Yu Xiaowan to Okamura Ningchi.
When Okamura Ningchi saw this, he was so angry that he fainted.
Doihara Kenji shouted in a threatening voice, "Ono Chika! You've made Commander Okamura so angry. Go get a doctor."
"Hello!"
Ono Zhihua was frightened by him and ran out of the office in a panic.
Doihara Kan'er hurriedly took out the documents, and when he pulled out Okamura Ning'a's drawer, he found it was locked. He hurriedly searched Okamura Ning'a's body for the key to open the drawer, and found that there was no seal of defense.
He quickly used his superb secret agent skills to open the safe using keys and lock picking stunts.
There was a large amount of cash and gold bars in the safe, which made him greedy for money.
He quickly took off his trousers, rolled up his trouser legs, and stuffed all the cash and gold bars into his trouser legs.
Then, he beautifully stamped the troop mobilization document, put everything back in place, and left quickly.
Not long after, Okamura Ningchi woke up slowly, picked up the phone and ordered: "Intelligence officer! Immediately order the Kyushu Division, Kumamoto Division, and Hokkaido Division to attack Hunan with all their strength, capture Chu Xi alive, and avenge the three sharpshooters of the empire."
"Hello!"
The Japanese intelligence officer hurriedly received the order.
Ono Chika led the military doctor into the office and asked in surprise, "Commander! Are you okay?"
Okamura Ningchi nodded and said, "It's okay!"
Ono Zhihua asked in confusion: "But I just saw Doihara Xian'er walk out of your office wearing only a pair of shorts."
"what?!"
Okamura Ningchi exclaimed.
The military doctor pointed downstairs from the window and said, "Ken'er Doihara left the headquarters building with bare legs."
Okamura Ningchi looked at him and said with great contempt: "I have never seen such a shameless person!"
In the evening, on the north bank of the Xiangjiang River.
Xiang Chu led his troops to approach here.
On the Xiangjiang River Bridge, a troop was slowly moving northward.
Moreover, this unit was very domineering and blocked the troops of the 34th Army at the bridgehead, preventing them from crossing the river.
Liu Zhengxiong's 2nd Division was in the front and called out to Xiang Chu: "Commander! This 91st Army is outrageous. They blocked the Xiangjiang Bridge for three hours and then crossed the bridge without any hurry."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "They definitely don't want to fight on the front lines, and they are very angry. Forget it! It's getting late anyway, and going into the city will disturb the people. The divisions should just find a place to camp nearby."
"Yes!"
The division commanders hurriedly received the order.
At this time, Zhang Fei reported: "Commander! Liu Zhandong of the 71st Army and Wang Lin of the 81st Army are going to Changsha to attend the founding ceremony of the new 1st Army Group. They want to see you before they leave."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Okay! I'll wait for them at the Xiangjiang Bridge."
