Spy Wars: Red Agent Codename Phoenix

The explosion was earth-shattering.

Enraged, Kobayashi Kenzaburo roared, "Baka! You despicable and cunning Eighth Route Army soldiers, this commander will tear you to pieces!"

Heiji Kazuo said helplessly, "Commander! Let's get off the vehicle and take a car to Mount Yi."

Kobayashi Kenzaburo was captivated by the comfort and delicious food in the train carriage, and also worried about being ambushed by the Eighth Route Army.

He pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "No! Imperial railway workers can repair tracks and restore traffic very quickly. We can just wait patiently on the train."

Pingzhu Yiyanfu nodded and said, "It's just an Eighth Route Army detachment. As long as our army surrounds them, they won't be able to escape."

At this moment, the Japanese intelligence officer stepped forward and reported:

"Commander, Brigade Commander Kameji Otaka has called to say that he has led the Taifei Garrison Brigade to Yishan and requests permission to launch the first attack on the Eighth Route Army."

Kobayashi Kenzaburo was overjoyed and laughed loudly, "Yoshi! Otaka Kameji is indeed a young and elite general of the Empire. Intelligence officer! His request is approved."

"Hello!"

The Japanese intelligence officer bowed and accepted the order.

Heiji Kazuo said urgently, "Commander! The Taifei Garrison Brigade only has 6,000 troops, plus puppet troops. I'm afraid they are no match for the Eighth Route Army's Luxi Special Task Force."

Kobayashi Kenzaburo waved his hand and said, "Odaka Kameji is a brave and ruthless fighter who has killed countless people and created several mass graves. He is more than capable of dealing with the 5,008 guerrillas on Mount Yi!"

Heiji Kazuo clenched his fist and said, "May Odaka Kame capture the commander of the Eighth Route Army's Western Shandong Special Task Force!"

Kobayashi Senzaburo sneered, "Don't worry! The commander of the Eighth Route Army's Western Shandong Special Task Force will not be able to escape."

Yishan, the command post of the special task force.

Xiang Chu marked the escape routes on the battle map and laughed:

"Chief Instructor! You led the Fourth Battalion to dig an escape route."

Gan Rong asked doubtfully, "Captain! We have a large number of people, a complete defense, and plenty of weapons, ammunition, and food. How can we not hold Yishan?"

Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "No! We don't need to defend Yishan. As long as we run out of ammunition and greatly deplete the Japanese forces, we can move towards the Yimeng Mountains."

"Xiaowan hasn't arrived yet, don't rush in!"

Liu Zhengxiong burst in with a loud shout.

Xiang Chu praised, "Deputy Captain! You completed the mission in Zoucheng exceptionally well this time."

Liu Zhengxiong said domineeringly, "That's right! We've almost filled all the caves on the mountain with the supplies we've looted. By the way! Where did Zhang Fei go?"

Xiang Chu pointed to the map and said, "They went to bomb the railway north of Teng County, which means that the Japanese commander in charge of the mopping-up operation, Kobayashi Kenzaburo, won't be able to get here in a short time."

Gan Rong added, "A telegram just arrived saying that they have successfully destroyed over a hundred meters of railway track."

Liu Zhengxiong clapped his hands and laughed, "Good! The surrendered Nationalist and puppet troops can train for a few more days."

Xiang Chu scolded, "You still call them that? They are now soldiers of the people, glorious soldiers of the Eighth Route Army."

Liu Zhengxiong said with a smile, "Yes! A glorious Eighth Route Army soldier."

Gan Rong said thoughtfully, "It's not enough for them to just train like this. It would be best if they could be put to the test in real combat."

Liu Zhengxiong shook his head and said, "Now the Japanese and puppet troops are all banding together to besiege us, why would a single unit come up to die?"

At this moment, Xiao Liu rushed in and said urgently:

"Commander! Five or six thousand Japanese soldiers and puppet troops are coming from the north, about five miles away. They have 20 tanks, hundreds of cars, and thousands of mules and horses. Judging from their military flags, they look like a Japanese brigade."

"You came pretty quickly, let's go out and take a look!"

Xiang Chu laughed, picked up his binoculars, and ran out of the command post.

Liu Zhengxiong and the others hurriedly followed, looking north.

A major earthquake struck the north, sending dust flying everywhere.

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Deputy Captain! Doesn't this give those newly joined comrades a chance to be tested?"

Liu Zhengxiong said with a wry smile, "Yes! It's the first time we've fought the Japanese, so don't be so scared that you wet your pants."

Gan Rong suggested, "Commander! The Japanese are coming in a fierce manner, with tanks leading the way. They clearly intend to devour us in one fell swoop. Why don't we bring out the direct-fire guns and give them a taste of their power?"

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! Go and command the artillery, provide artillery fire."

"Yes!"

Gan Rong hurriedly accepted the order.

Liu Zhengxiong said urgently, "Brigade Commander! The Chief Instructor is too lenient and unwilling to use poison gas. How about I go and command the artillery operation?"

Gan Rong said angrily, "Why wouldn't I be willing to deal with those wicked Japanese devils? If there were ever a weapon capable of destroying the world, I would throw it at their heads."

Liu Zhengxiong praised, "Alright! You're ruthless, go on!"

Xiang Chu instructed, "Xiao Liu! Notify all battalions to conduct defensive operations according to the defensive combat plan."

"Yes!"

Xiao Liu hurriedly accepted the order and rushed into the cave.

Liu Zhengxiong said worriedly, "Team leader! Xiaowan has already brought Fugui here, what should we do?"

Xiang Chu smiled wryly, "I can't change Xiaowan's decisions. But if she can get to Yan'an safely, there's a way for her to get here."

Liu Zhengxiong said angrily, "It was only because Dai Nong and Zheng Jie sent Ye Ying to arrest her that she managed to escape."

Xiang Chu comforted her, "Xiao Wan and Fu Gui both have the identity of shadow spies, so they should be able to safely cross the blockade."

Liu Zhengxiong sighed, "Alas! To be honest, this girl is just worried about your safety."

At this moment, 20 Japanese tanks, with the cooperation of thousands of Japanese soldiers, rapidly approached Mount Yi.

Xiang Chu changed the subject and instructed, "Deputy Captain! You take Xiao Liu and the guards to supervise the battle. There must be no deserters."

"Yes!"

Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly accepted the order.

It's located two or three miles north of Mount Yi, beside the highway.

The Japanese soldiers are preparing for their charge.

Kameji Odaka sat in a jeep, holding binoculars, carefully observing the mountain.

The Japanese intelligence officer rushed forward and reported loudly, "Brigade Commander! Battalion Commander Fujino has called to say that the tank battalion and infantry battalion have approached the foot of Mount Yi, but have not found the Eighth Route Army. Should we attack?"

Kameji Otaka asked in confusion, "No Eighth Route Army? Did the Eighth Route Army's Western Shandong Special Task Force escape? What a pity!"

Brigade Chief of Staff Kazuo Sato said obsequiously, "Brigade Commander! The Eighth Route Army must have fled at the mere sight of you when they heard you were coming!"

Taiga Turtle glared at him and pointed to the mountaintop, scolding:

"Sato-kun! Didn't you see the Eighth Route Army's red flag on the mountaintop?"

Indeed, Xiang Chu had just ordered his men to raise the flag of attack.

Kameji Otaka shouted, "Intelligence officer! Call Captain Fujino and order him to go all out and take Mount Yi."

"Hello!"

The Japanese intelligence officer bowed and accepted the order.

"Boom! Boom!"

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out.

Sato Kazuo fawned again, "Brigade Commander! If this wave of shells hits the mountain, even the Eighth Route Army soldiers who didn't escape will have to run away."

Kameji Odaka shouted, "Baka! The Empire's war machine has been blown up by the Eighth Route Army's artillery!"

"The Eighth Route Army also has long-range artillery?"

Kazuo Sato exclaimed in surprise, his voice trembling.
