Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

When Xiaoquan thought about it, he took a deep breath. The number of locust soldiers killed by the Eighth Route Army was already over 20,000. It was so terrifying...

What kind of army is this that can defeat the locust army in just a few months?

Now even His Excellency Prince Xian Gong seemed to have been killed by this army.

This ghostly Eighth Route Army has now become the nightmare of their First Army.

It is also Junichiro Koizumi's nightmare.

Koizumi realized at this moment that all the bad news he received seemed to be related to this unit...

Ever since this unit showed up, the previously brave and capable Locust Army has become like paper and has been torn to pieces by them.

The commander's temper is getting worse and worse, and his red and swollen face is the best proof of this.

Could it be... that this is really the nemesis of our locust army?

But I heard that Neon Country used to be a vassal state of China.

Now they come to seize Chinese land, they must be punished by the gods...

Yes! It must be like this, how else can it be explained?

Junichiro Koizumi thought with certainty.

Alas, but the fact that the commander fainted is also a good thing for Junichiro Koizumi.

Originally, Koizumi thought he would be beaten up again this time, but Yoshio Shinozuka became so angry that he fainted.

This can be considered as sparing him.

But...is this a good thing or a bad thing...

After two and a half hours of treatment, Yoshio Shinozuka woke up. His pale face gradually regained color and he regained his sanity.

Yoshio Shinozuka ordered the doctor to set up his ward in his office. It is unknown whether Ikkura Kanmiya is alive or dead, and the battle situation at the front is not going well, so he cannot just collapse.

……

The headquarters of the 36th division of the Japanese invaders in Qucheng.

"idiot!"

"idiot!"

"An entire regiment! An entire regiment was wiped out by the Eighth Route Army before they even had time to fire their guns!"

"What kind of battle is this!"

"It's a disgrace to the Locust Army!"

"Where is His Excellency the Prince?! How is His Excellency the Prince?!"

After receiving the battle report, the commander of the 36th Division, Saburo Sakai, became furious and started cursing.

He couldn't understand why this happened.

What is the origin of that Eighth Route Army? Why is it so powerful...

But what he is most worried about now is the safety of Xian Gong Yihe.

If the Eighth Infantry Regiment he sent was completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army, then... that doesn't mean that His Excellency the Prince has also...

Saburo Sakai didn't dare to think any further.

If this is really what he thinks, the entire 36th Division will be the sinner of the empire.

And he, Saburo Sakai, will be held directly responsible for not sending a large number of troops to rescue Ikkuru Kanmiya.

Although he was also worried about Xian Gong Yihe's safety at that time, he never took the Eighth Route Army seriously.

After all, every time his troops went out for a mopping-up operation, the Eighth Route Army would run away early, and the few remaining troops were no match for their Locust Army.

In his opinion, one infantry regiment was enough to annihilate the invading enemy and rescue Xian Gong Yihe.

However, he couldn't figure out whether the Eighth Route Army was too powerful or his men were too incompetent...

[Ding-ling-ling… Ding-ling-ling…]

Just at this moment, the phone rang urgently.

Saburo Sakai immediately felt something was wrong.

Because this phone is directly under the Taiyuan Command...

Saburo Sakai stood up straight, leaned his leather boots on his legs, and answered the phone with a very respectful attitude.

"Moshimoshi... Oh my god, oh my god, Sakai Saburo..."

"Hai! Hai!"

Saburo Sakai nodded repeatedly and shouted loudly with a panicked look on his face.

The voice on the phone was Shinozuka Yoshio's: "Sakai-kun! I want to ask you if the prince has been rescued?!"

Shinozuka Yoshio's tone was very stern, and Sakai Saburo could tell that Shinozuka Yoshio was very manic at the moment...

Saburo Sakai didn't know how to answer Yoshio Shinozuka's question...

After a long silence, Yoshio Shinozuka's voice was heard again.

"Sakai-kun... I only have one request now, I want to see him alive or his body dead!"

"We have to prepare for the worst. If His Excellency the Prince has died, we have to take back his body!"

"This commander orders! 36th Division, move out in full force!"

"Destroy those damned Eighth Route Army troops! Avenge His Excellency the Prince! Avenge the Imperial warriors who died in battle!!"

Yoshio Shinozuka was very excited and shouted with all his strength.

"Hai! Hai!"

"Our 36th Division will definitely carry out the Commander's orders!!"

Saburo Sakai stood at attention, bowed deeply and shouted.

"Yoshi! Sakai-kun, this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers must be very powerful!"

"You must do a good job of investigation. I need the most detailed intelligence on this unit!"

"Report all their troop numbers and firepower configurations to the headquarters!"

"They have the ability to completely wipe out the 36th Mixed Brigade and a flying squadron, and they can even bite off a piece of meat from your th Division. They must have heavy weapons!"

"Sakai-kun, I hope you can perform well this time, otherwise this commander won't be able to protect you. Then you will commit seppuku to me!"

"And I may also be sent to a military court, and the two of us will become criminals of the empire. Do you understand? ! ! "

Yoshio Shinozuka's gloomy voice came like a heavy punch, hitting Saburo Sakai directly in the heart.

Saburo Sakai was in awe, he also knew the importance of this matter.

"Hai! Hai!"

"I will do my best to see if he is alive or dead!"

"Please rest assured, Commander!"

Saburo Sakai had a solemn expression and bowed deeply.

After hanging up the phone, Saburo Sakai wiped his forehead, only then he realized that his back was soaked.

"Someone, come here! Pass my order! All troops assemble!!"

Saburo Sakai shouted out the door.

Ten minutes later.

In the Japanese barracks in Qucheng, most of the 36th Division stationed in Qucheng has assembled.

"Warriors! Now there is a damn Eighth Route Army that has killed more than 10,000 of our locust soldiers!"

"General Shinozuka now orders our 36th Division to destroy this enemy!"

"This is how much General Shinozuka values ​​our 36th Division!"

"Warriors! It's time to make achievements!"

"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"

"Army attack!!"

Saburo Sakai drew the command knife from his waist and shouted.

The Japanese soldiers immediately became as excited as if they had seen a great victory. Their eyes lit up and their morale soared.

The rest of the 36th Division troops stationed around Qucheng also set off one after another.

"Report to the division commander!"

"Our scouts discovered a vanguard force of the Eighth Route Army in the southwest of Qucheng!"

"There are about a regiment of people, and they have 11 tanks!"

The 36th Division Chief of Staff reported.
