Taiyuan.
He had rushed back with the special agent team. Today, he accompanied the commander of the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka, to entertain the Chief of Staff of the North China Army, Miyano Doichi, who had come to inspect the work.
In a quiet room in the First Army's headquarters, Shinozuka Yoshio and Miyano Doichi were sitting on both sides of the table. They were playing Go and drinking tea made from high-quality tea leaves. They looked especially relaxed.
A white stone fell on the board, and Shinozuka Yoshio ate several black stones. Miyano Doichi didn't care about this. He picked up his teacup and took another sip before sighing,"
"The tea leaves that Shinozuka-kun treasured are indeed extraordinary. It was as if I could taste the mist of Mount Fuji.”
"General Miyano's imagination is really wonderful.”
It was obviously a compliment, but when it came out of the mouth of the arrogant Yamamoto Ichiki, Miyano Doichi could hear the sarcasm in it.
Then, Yamamoto Ichiki's following words made Miyano Doichi certain that he was being sarcastic.
"Actually, the tea that General Miyano drinks is only Biluochun tea from southern China.”
“……”
Fortunately, Miyano Doichi had a good temper. Otherwise, he would have slapped Yamamoto Ichiki long ago when he saw him jumping around like this.
Of course, the most important thing was that Yamamoto Ichiki, who was only a colonel, was now a popular person in front of Shinozuka Yoshio. Shinozuka Yoshio was the lieutenant general of the First Army, while Miyano Doichi was just a major general and chief of staff.
Therefore, even though Yamamoto Ichiki was being sarcastic, Miyano Doichi could only swallow his anger.
Although Shinozuka Yoshio was already used to the unruly personality of his trusted subordinate, he still stepped forward to smooth things over when he saw Miyano Doichi's slightly ugly expression.
"China is a big country, and Biluochun is just one of the top quality tea leaves. Such a heaven-sent place is the best place for us imperial troops to make contributions and publicize the might of the emperor.”
"Shinozuka-kun is right."
Hearing Shinozuka Yoshio's words, Miyano Doichi nodded and sighed,"
"However, China is too big and Japan is too small. It was too difficult for the Imperial Kingdom to occupy the entire China. Since the Lugouqiao Incident, the Japanese War had lasted for four years. The resistance of the Chinese people did not weaken, but became more intense.”
"Yes, the resistance of the Chinese people is even more intense.”
Shinozuka Yoshio chimed in. He was also troubled by the Eighth Route Army, so he could not help but resonate with Miyano Doichi's words.
"Although the imperial army easily defeated Yan's Jinsui Army and Wei's Central Army in the early stages of the war and occupied more than half of Jin Province, Zhina's government army and local army still stubbornly resisted the imperial army in southern Jin. More importantly, after we defeated the Chinese government and local forces, the Chinese Eighth Route Army took the opportunity to develop. Although our imperial army has encircled and suppressed them several times, they have little effect each time and even suffered heavy losses.
A few days ago, Sakata-kun had lost his soul in the battle against the Eighth Route Army in Ashen Cloud Ridge.”
(PS: The Yasukuni Shrine was located in Kuduzaka, Tokyo. During World War II, when the Japanese were in a bad situation, they would say to each other,"See you in Kuduzaka," which meant that they would be worshipped in the Yasukuni Shrine together after death.）
"Sakata Nobutetsu huh…"
Miyano Doichi had naturally heard of this infantry regiment commander of the 4th Brigade. After hearing Shinozuka Yoshio's words, he could not help but sigh."
" It's indeed a pity for Sakata. The headquarters had already confirmed his promotion to major general. It's a pity…"
"Miyano-kun, Sakata-kun is indeed a pity, but doesn't Miyano-kun think that there's a problem with our tactics?”
"Oh? Shinozuka-kun's words seemed to be referring to something else? Please advise me."
"Not long ago, Yamamoto had a failed long-range attack.”
Shinozuka Yoshio's words made Yamamoto Ichiki's expression turn ugly. Seeing this, Miyano asked curiously,"
"Oh? How was Yamamoto's success in this raid?”
"Hehe, I'm ashamed. Yamamoto originally wanted to sneak attack the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, but he did not expect to encounter a main force of the Eighth Route Army when he was about to reach his destination.”
Shinozuka Yoshio said that he was ashamed, but a reserved smile appeared on his face."
"In Tokyo, a score of 200 to 0 is common, but in China, such a score is very rare.”
Hearing this, Miyano Doichi's interest was piqued.
"To be able to achieve such a shocking result in a battle, and the opponent is the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and not a single one of Yamamoto's subordinates has been injured, it seems that I need to change my view of Yamamoto's special operations theory.”
"Shinozuka-kun, can I take a look at Yamamoto's special agent team?”
"Of course you can."
Shinozuka Yoshio stood up, and Yamamoto Ichiki also walked up to Miyano Doichi. He raised his hand and said,"
"General, please!"
Miyano Doichi stood up happily and followed Shinozuka Yoshio and Yamamoto Ichiki to a city tower. At the foot of the city tower, the 80-plus Yamamoto Secret Service Squad had been waiting for a long time in front of the city gate.
With just one glance, Miyano Doichi could tell that this unit was different. Not only were their equipment different from other Japanese infantry, but the most important thing was that the entire team's aura was also different from the average Japanese army.
Even though they were dozens of meters away, Miyano Doichi could feel the murderous aura emanating from their bodies. Looking down at the Yamamoto Special Agent Team, Miyano Doichi felt like he was looking at the sharp dagger of a peerless assassin.
"Not bad."
Miyano Daoyi praised,
"If every unit of the Imperial Army of Japan had this appearance, North China would not be in this situation.”
"Therefore, the North China Army must reform its tactics. Only in this way could they completely defeat the increasingly rampant Eighth Route Army of China and establish a paradise of kingcraft on this land!”
"Yes."
Miyano Doichi nodded and said,
"Indeed. When we return to Beiping, I will propose to the Commander-in-Chief to launch special agent teams in all the divisions and armies to reform tactics and improve public security!”
"Then I'll wait for Miyano-kun's good news.”
After hearing Miyano Doichi's words, Shinozuka Yoshio and Yamamoto Ichiki smiled.
Then, accompanied by Shinozuka Yoshio and Yamamoto Ichiki, Miyano Doichi observed the Yamamoto Special Agent Team's tactical drills. This made Miyano Doichi admire Yamamoto Ichiki's special operations theory even more.
At this moment, Li Yun Long brought a platoon of cavalrymen and a large amount of supplies to the independent regiment's encampment, Yang Village.
However, the scene before him made Li Yunlong very angry.
