After the Battle of Ashen Cloud Ridge, Shinozuka Yoshio was the first to know that the Sakata Army had been defeated and Sato Tadayoshi had been killed. However, he only knew the number of the unit and did not know who the commander was.
The Japanese's intelligence network was pretty good.
There was information on all the anti-Japanese forces that were in the military. However, many of the 8th Route Army's forces were not in the military, especially the new and independent regiments. Therefore, the Japanese's intelligence system lacked information on these forces.
Now, he finally understood.
The new regiment commander was Li Yunlong.
He didn't expect that the culprit behind the loss of such a large batch of supplies was Li Yunlong.
Shinozuka Yoshio's expression was not very good, but he did not get angry. The hand that was holding the black piece in the air slowly descended and landed on the chessboard. Then, he said,"Call Yamamoto over!"
"Ha Yi!"
Then, he went down.
The supplies that were transported from Taiyuan to Shanghai were all looted by the Japanese in North China.
This train was only one of the many. It was mainly carrying gold, medicine, weapons and equipment.
They didn't expect to be intercepted by Li Yunlong halfway. When the Japanese troops arrived, they found that the gold, medicine, and weapons had been transferred. The remaining large-scale arsenal equipment had been blown up into pieces, leaving nothing behind. It was simply infuriating.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't angry.
However, Shinozuka Yoshio was a very tolerant person.
A moment later, a man in a military uniform walked in.
This man was Shinozuka Yoshio's right-hand man, Yamamoto Ichiki.
Yamamoto Ichiki graduated from the Imperial Army University and then went to the Berlin Special Forces Academy for further study. He was a special operations expert with extraordinary courage and accurate judgment, and was highly valued by the commander of the First Army, Shinozuka Yoshio.
Unlike other soldiers, Yamamoto Ichiki had a resolute and calm personality. He abided by military dogma and formed a special agent team to attack the highest military command center of the anti-Japanese forces.
There were more than 80 professional special forces under him. All of them were graduates of the German Special Forces Military Academy or elites personally trained by him. They were well-equipped and used advanced MP30 submachine guns. In order to improve their strength, they often used captured soldiers for training.
Yamamoto Ichiki came to Shinozuka Yoshio and lowered his head."Commander."
Shinozuka Yoshio and Miyamoto Uano continued to play Go.
Takeshi Ueno glanced at Yamamoto Ichiki and said,""Yamamoto, you're here? How's your special agent team doing recently?"
"My special agent team is doing well."”
It was worth mentioning that Yamamoto Ichiki's military rank was the lowest among the graduates of Lu University. Most of his classmates had already entered the ranks of the Army's famous generals, such as the famous Itagaki Seishiro. The reason was that Yamamoto Ichiki was not interested in large group combat. His interest was in studying special operations, which was an emerging military discipline.
Not many people understood and supported special operations.
However, Shinozuka Yoshio was quite supportive of Yamamoto Ichiki.
Shinozuka Yoshio placed a black stone on the table and said,"Yamamoto Kun, how's your execution going?”
The decapitation operation was Yamamoto Ichiki's plan to attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
Yamamoto Ichiki: " We've already found out that the Eighth Route Army headquarters is located in Daxia Bay. We've already completed the development of the battle plan. We'll be able to execute the decapitation operation soon.”
"Mmm, I hope you won't disappoint me this time." Shinozuka Yoshio nodded.”
"You have to become famous in one battle and teach these 8th Route Army a lesson. Let them know the power of our Imperial Army.”
Yamamoto Ichiki put his legs together, held his head high, and replied loudly,""Yes, sir!"
It could be said that the Yamamoto Secret Service Team was the trump card in Shinozuka Yoshio's hands. They were also one of the few special forces.
In order to attack the Eighth Route Army headquarters accurately, Yamamoto Ichiki had done a lot of preparatory work and intelligence work. At the same time, he had also strengthened the training of the special agent team.
Because this was the first time the special agent team had actually carried out a mission.
Whether or not he could amaze the world with a single battle would depend on this battle.
…………
In the following time.
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan continued to recruit and expand the troops.
Li Yunlong was guiding the puppet soldiers and new recruits who were being trained in Wanshan.
With the help of the systematic training manual, the overall quality of these puppet soldiers and recruits had improved significantly.
On this day, Li Yunlong was inspecting the training of new recruits on the training ground. An Eighth Route Army soldier ran quickly to Li Yunlong and said,""Captain, there's a group of people outside who want to join the army.”
Li Yunlong didn't think much of it and said directly,""To join the army? Alright, welcome. Just let them go find the officer in charge of conscription.”
" Captain," the warrior said awkwardly," the leader of the group asked to see you."”
