Liujiafangzi Village, where the 66th Brigade was located, was originally a village with a large population, and was considered a large village among the surrounding villages.

However, in order to make room for the headquarters and soldiers, the Japanese drove all the villagers out of the village, and those who disobeyed were stabbed to death with bayonets.

The wheat harvest ground at the entrance of the village was littered with the bodies of villagers, piled up into a small hill.

Finally, after the old village chief’s much persuasion, the Japanese agreed to let them bury the bodies.

Nobuo Tanaka led his team back to Liujiafangzi Village, while Sato Sadaji was waiting at the headquarters of the 66th Brigade.

"Major Sato Sadaji, shouldn't you be in the cave now? Why are you still at the headquarters?"

Sato Teiji stood at attention awkwardly in front of Tanaka Nobuo, not daring to speak.

"Well, since you have nothing to say, just follow your assignment and report to the 78th Independent Infantry Battalion!"

"General... General, I want to stay by your side and serve you!"

This is exactly what Nobuo Tanaka was waiting for.

He Ying Zhier had sent him here to help take care of him. Although he was a little unhappy, he still had to give face to the confidential department.

However, this face cannot be given directly. If it is given too readily, it seems that it is not so precious.

Therefore, it is necessary to make this matter complicated and difficult first, and then take action to provide timely assistance, which will make Kazutaka Chiji and Sato Teiji grateful.

Nobuo Tanaka looked embarrassed.

"Major Sato Sadaji, did you know that the 77th Independent Infantry Battalion was completely wiped out last night? And the 78th Independent Infantry Battalion was ambushed in one of the caves and all of them were destroyed, did you know that?

Now is the time when the Empire is really in need of manpower. You should be on the battlefield, serving His Majesty the Emperor loyally, instead of staying in the headquarters!

If others see you, they will think you, Sato Sadaji, are a deserter or a coward! "

At this moment, an idea popped up in Sato Sadaji's mind: There's nothing wrong with being a coward, it's better than being blown into meat paste by the independent column's aerial bombs, or being suffocated to death in a cave.

However, even though I think this in my heart, I can’t say it out loud.

"General, I want to apply the knowledge I learned at the Army University to the preparation of combat plans to help you solve your problems!"

Nobuo Tanaka sneered in his heart, you are such a pig, and you still want to help me solve my problems?

However, they both knew what the other was trying to do, but they both pretended not to know.

"In that case, you will stay at the brigade headquarters and assist me in commanding the suppression of the small remaining enemy forces of the independent column! Also, please give a hello to Second Commander Kazutaka and General Sato!"

Sato Teiji and Tanaka Nobuo looked at each other and smiled, and they reached a tacit understanding.

"Orders: 78th Infantry Battalion to search forward from the left wing, 79th Infantry Battalion to search forward from the center, and 137th Infantry Battalion to search forward from the right wing.

Make sure not to miss any corner and ensure the absolute safety of the cave! "

Under Nobuo Tanaka's arrangement, except for the selected suicide squad who stayed in the cave, the rest of the Japanese soldiers all joined the search team.

More than 3,000 Japanese soldiers began to search westward like a net.

At this time, Monk Wei seemed to have also felt the Japs' intensive search. After all, the No. 7 Cave he was searching for was only five or six miles away from Zhangbei.

The soldiers who were on guard in the direction of Zhangbei bent over and trotted to a valley where they were hiding.

"Commander, the Japanese have started a sweeping search! And this time the force is even bigger, it looks like there are at least three or four infantry battalions!"

"We've already expected this. We've turned their cave upside down. How can they let us go so easily? Put on the Japanese uniforms immediately!"

"Brigade Commander, what about our weapons and equipment?"

The deputy squad leader pointed to the remaining rocket, as well as their rifles, grenades, magazines, and so on.

"Easy, just watch me!"

Monk Wei first changed into the Japanese soldiers' clothes, then made two stretchers with tree trunks and ropes, stuffed the weapons and equipment down, and then put the Japanese soldiers' military blankets on them.

"Come on, lie down? Act more like a real person, don't be so cocky!"

"Hey, you still have a way!"

Thus, a retreating Japanese detachment was formed to escort the two wounded soldiers.

Twelve men and two stretchers began to charge head-on at the sister-in-law's encirclement.

Monk Wei looked at the encirclement about 100 meters away from them and shouted in a low voice:

"Except for the soldiers who can speak the Japanese language, no one else can say a word even if they bite their teeth to pieces!"

"Yes!"

Monk Wei and the others lowered their heads, looking dejected, and walked towards the Japanese encirclement.

"Stop, which department are you from?"

"77th Independent Infantry Battalion!"

The soldier who was questioning asked curiously:

"Didn't your entire army get wiped out? How come there are still..."

Before the Japanese soldier who was asking the question could finish his words, another Japanese soldier next to him pulled his arm and signaled him to stop.

The Japanese soldier who asked the question also looked ashamed.

"Sorry, we will avenge you, take a good rest!"

After saying that, he made way for the group of Japanese soldiers at the rear and they successfully passed through the encirclement.

Monk Wei breathed a sigh of relief. He had been prepared to put in some effort, but he didn't expect that this little Japanese soldier would be so polite.

"stop!"

Monk Wei's heart, which had just been at ease, was lifted up again, and he carefully pressed the "little Gada" in his pocket.

This is their secret code. Once the "Xiaogada" button is pressed, they must be prepared for battle.

Except for the soldier carrying the stretcher, the rest of the soldiers reached out for the loaded pistols and quietly put their hands on the triggers.

Monk Wei and the soldier who could speak Japanese turned around and saw that the person who came seemed to be a Japanese second lieutenant.

"Sir, what do you want me to do?"

"Are you soldiers from the 77th Infantry Battalion? How is Captain Yoshida?"

This question stumped them. Although the Japanese 77th Battalion suffered heavy casualties this time, he really didn't know whether their captain was dead or alive.

"Don't you even know the situation of your own captain?"

The Japanese second lieutenant quietly put his hand on his gun box, as if he was about to draw his gun if he disagreed with something.

Faced with the Japs' pressing pressure, the only option now is to take a gamble!

"Report to the commander, Captain Yoshida has served the Emperor faithfully!"

The Japanese second lieutenant then put down his hands, took off his hat, and observed a three-second silence in a proper manner.

“Thank you for your hard work!”

That’s not all. The Japanese second lieutenant seemed ready to walk towards the soldier on the stretcher.

"Warrior, where are you injured?"

The soldier lying on the stretcher opened his round eyes and looked at the Japanese second lieutenant, not knowing what language he was speaking.
