Li Yunlong ordered the cavalry company to disperse on the road and return immediately to report if they spotted any suspicious persons.

As for Sun Ming, he also wanted to see the strength of the legendary Japanese special forces, so he chose to stay, but sent someone back to the city to report to the commander.

This time, Yamamoto's special forces team came to Hexian with only two combat teams, led by deputy captain Katsuo Oda.

Yamamoto Ikki led the main force of the special forces team and prepared to go to Kenanpo to raid the headquarters of the Second War Zone, which he had always been thinking about. It would be best if he could capture the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone alive.

However, the Noda Regiment in He County has not been able to achieve its tactical goals and completely occupy the strategic location of He County. If Yoshio Shinozuka had not strictly ordered Yamamoto Ikki to send troops to launch a surprise attack on Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment Headquarters, Yamamoto's special forces would never have been able to come to this small place.

In the previous battles, the worst were command posts at the Jinsui Army division level. An infantry regiment was a bit cheap for Yamamoto Ikki.

The ones who just had an encounter with the Independent Regiment were reconnaissance personnel from Yamamoto's special forces, and two Japanese spies lurking in Hexian County.

"Captain, we have investigated the situation clearly. The main forces of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army are fighting our Noda Regiment outside the city. Currently, there is only one guard company, one cavalry company, one special agent company, and one infantry company guarding the city."

"Their defensive forces are spread out and look very lax. This is the topographic map near their regiment headquarters. There is only one guard company responsible for the defense of the entire regiment headquarters. With such a small number of defensive forces, as long as we attack after dark, we can easily complete the mission."

Oda Katsuo nodded with satisfaction when he heard the arrogant words of his subordinates. In his mind, Yamamoto's special forces were powerful and invincible. The defense of a mere infantry regiment was like paper in front of them and could be broken with just a poke.

"Very good, Yoshida-kun, how are your intelligence department members preparing?"

"Oda-kun, everything is ready. We have also finished preparing for the city gate. We will just pretend to be members of the logistics transport team and transport a batch of food into the city."

"The personnel we have infiltrated into the Jinsui Army have already obtained all the relevant documents. There are also relevant personnel in the city to meet us. Don't worry, there won't be any problems."

"In addition, our people in the city will also launch actions at the same time, creating chaos in various parts of the city to attract the attention of the 358th Regiment's defenders."

"Once you have completed your mission, we can help you evacuate from the city gate during the chaos."

"Yoshi, that's a good arrangement. We'll set off in an hour. Wish us success."

After saying this, he ordered the team members to check their equipment and get ready for immediate action.

On the special forces side, they are conducting a unique tracking training course.

Faced with an opponent of the level of Yamamoto's special forces team, the special forces members did not dare to be careless at all. Even Kong Hao changed his usual indifferent attitude and personally led the reconnaissance team members to search forward.

The three combat teams formed a V-shaped battle formation and searched in a fan-shaped manner for any traces left by the enemy.

Kong Hao explained as he searched: "When you encounter this kind of situation in the future, you must pay special attention to the direction of the fallen weeds under your feet, the distribution of the places where the leaves were knocked off, etc."

"These tracking skills in the forest were originally training subjects in the future. Now that you have encountered them, I will explain them to you. Everyone should experience them carefully."

"Also, when we march in the future, we must find a way to remove these traces, or even create some traces to confuse the enemy."

"Also, when tracking the enemy, you must pay special attention to the situation under your feet. In general special forces confrontations, the best way is to bury anti-infantry mines to get rid of the opponent's pursuit."

"Our special forces must not only be good at laying mines, but also know how to find and remove them."

"Of course, the Yamamoto special forces in the woods probably wouldn't have thought of this and buried mines in advance to block the enemy and give early warning."

"The enemy certainly wouldn't have expected that their whereabouts would be discovered by us unintentionally. With our careful planning, we have a great chance of winning."

"Notify the people behind us to follow up. We need to speed up and find those bastards from Yamamoto's special forces as quickly as possible and kill them."

However, it will take a lot of time to find a small troop in a forest.

As for Chu Yunfei, he has been in an excited state since he learned that Li Yunlong's regiment came to Hexian for support.

In fact, he had had a strong interest in Li Yunlong since the time in Cang Yunling, and always wanted to make friends with him.

He was a proud man, and the 358th Regiment under his command was the most powerful regiment among the more than troops of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

Moreover, he came from a prominent family, graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, and was a fellow villager of Commander Yan. He could benefit from both sides, and both sides trusted him.

His strategic vision was also very accurate. He had long realized that Hexian was a place that both the enemy and us must fight for. It was he who suggested to Commander Yan that he must send a trustworthy and tough-battle capable force to garrison there.

Finally, his 358th Regiment arrived in Hexian County as they wished, and with the cooperation of friendly forces, they fought off a field regiment and two garrison battalions of the Japanese.

However, the only time he misjudged was the incident at Cangyun Ridge. He had personally experienced the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Sakata Regiment.

When in Luye, the 358th Regiment fought with them, and in just one hour they lost more than 300 people. Even his deputy regiment commander was killed. In the critical situation, he hurriedly led the main force to retreat.

The Sakata Regiment is the elite among the elite of the Japanese field forces, far from being comparable to the current second-rate forces like the Noda Regiment.

He had asserted at the beginning that Li Yunlong's regiment would be wiped out by the Japanese in a short time, but he did not expect that reality would slap him in the face.

The New 1st Regiment led by Li Yunlong exceeded everyone's expectations and broke through the enemy's front line. It also defeated the Sakata Regiment and killed the Sakata Regiment Commander.

Although he was slapped in the face, Chu Yunfei was not angry. On the contrary, he felt very fortunate.

After all, compared to personal honor and disgrace, the more things like this that are of great significance to the country and the nation, the better.

Since then, Chu Yunfei sent people to inquire about who this Li Yunlong was. Unexpectedly, the two of them would one day join forces to fight the enemy. It can be considered a kind of fate.

However, just as he was waiting for Li Yunlong's arrival at the regiment headquarters, a guard who was out to greet him ran in urgently and reported the latest news.

When Chu Yunfei learned that traces of the Japanese special forces were found outside the county town and that Captain Li was leading the team to encircle and suppress them, he suddenly became a little restless.

Don't be fooled by his words that he doesn't take the Japanese special forces team seriously, he just said that to boost morale. In fact, he attaches great importance to them, otherwise he would not have placed the powerful special forces company around the regiment headquarters in order to deal with any emergency.
