Bright Sword: Double penetration of the dealer, shocking Li Yunlong

However, what greeted them was a violent explosion.

Li Jingrong, who had already run halfway up the mountain, heard an explosion behind him.

He kept smiling and said, "Hurry home, the Japanese are about to rush down."

When they reached the foot of the mountain, the Japanese army was still searching for people all over the mountain like headless flies.

Li Jingrong led the assault team away from the crime scene on bicycles.

On the way, Wei Dayong excitedly shouted while riding his bike, "Advisor Li, we've made a killing this time. I didn't expect to run into the old Japanese during training, and we even killed them all."

Li Jingrong replied with a smile: "God saw that these little devils had committed many evil things, so he sent them here to take them away."

They returned to Chen Jiayu with laughter and joy.

However, the Japanese soldiers on the Cangyun Ridge side were crying out in grief.

Except for the officers at the foot of the mountain, all the officers brought by Yoshio Iwamatsu were wiped out, and more than 30 soldiers were buried with them.

Among them, there are 9 majors, 2 lieutenant colonels, 5 colonels, 3 major generals and 1 lieutenant general.

This wave directly wiped out the whole team.

"Inform Taiyuan immediately of this news."

The Japanese officer said with gritted teeth.

Until now they haven't seen anyone.

But it has been basically confirmed that the people have gone down the mountain.

In the direction of Taiyuan, Yoshio Shinozuka felt extremely depressed.

Iwamatsu Yoshio was one level lower than me at the time, but I didn't expect that he would not only be promoted to lieutenant general now.

How dare you humiliate him at this critical moment.

It was really intolerable, but he had no way to deal with him.

"Baga, isn't the Independent Regiment very powerful? Why didn't they kill him when he took office?"

It seemed as if God heard his request.

"General, something terrible has happened."

In response to the officer who barged into the office, Shinozuka Yoshio suppressed his anger and asked, "What happened?"

After hearing this, his mood became even worse, and now he just wanted to vent.

"Lieutenant General Iwamatsu Yoshio and his entourage were suddenly bombarded while paying tribute to Regiment Commander Sakata at Cangyun Ridge, and have perished in battle at Cangyun Ridge."

When Yoshio Shinozuka heard the news, he was stunned.

At this moment, he did not feel any anger. Instead, the haze in his heart was swept away, and a hint of pleasure appeared in his eyes.

However, he did not show it, but replied lightly.

"I understand. I will immediately order a full investigation into this matter. Find out who did it. I will mobilize a large force to avenge Lieutenant General Iwamatsu Yoshio."

The superficial work still needs to be done, otherwise the headquarters will think that this shelling was arranged by Yoshio Shinozuka.

When the officer left, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Yoshio Iwamatsu is dead. Perhaps I still have a chance to stay in Jinxi."

The news quickly spread from the Taiyuan headquarters to the expeditionary force headquarters, and the expeditionary force headquarters then passed the news to the headquarters.

Yoshio Shinozuka had no intention of suppressing this "good news", and many forces soon learned of the news.

Both the Northern Expeditionary Force and the headquarters were extremely angry when they heard the news.

A dignified military commander was killed in a bombing on his way to take office.

Moreover, we didn’t even know who the enemy was, we could only guess that it was the Eighth Route Army.

Because Cangyunling is right on the edge of the Eighth Route Army's base.

It can be seen how rampant the Eighth Route Army in western Shanxi has become. It is simply intolerable.

Army Minister Hideki Tojo issued an order regarding the establishment of the Northern Expeditionary Force.

Before the end of this year, we must launch a mopping-up operation against the entire Eighth Route Army in the north and completely annihilate the Eighth Route Army.

The supplies and manpower needed to destroy the Eighth Route Army will continue to be provided.

Preparations for that war are nearing completion, and so many resources are no longer needed.

At least there are still enough supplies and manpower to launch a campaign that sweeps across the entire northern region.

As for Yoshio Shinozuka...

He was allowed to continue serving as the commander of the First Army of Jinxi Province, even though he was defeated repeatedly and caused considerable losses to the empire.

But he is also the one who is most familiar with this Eighth Route Army.

In the upcoming large-scale sweep, there must be a familiar person to command.

After all, the Eighth Route Army in western Shanxi was the most rampant.

Chu Yunfei just smiled after receiving this news.

"I thought that with the departure of Shinozuka Yoshio, western Shanxi would usher in a fierce tiger, but I never thought that this fierce tiger would die on the road. How ridiculous."

Yoshio Iwamatsu is known for being as ruthless as a tiger and swift in action.

If this kind of person takes office, the entire western Shanxi will be in chaos. This is one of the reasons why the Northern Expeditionary Force sent him to office.

"Commander, who do you think did this?"

Chu Yunfei glanced at the map and said, "Based on my intuition, it must have been Li Yunlong who did it. Cangyun Ridge is where he once fought fiercely, so it must have some connection with him."

Headquarters.

"Did our Eighth Route Army do this? Check which unit it was. They did a brilliant job. The commander was killed in a bombing on his first day in office. This is going to become a national joke."

After hearing the news, the boss said happily.

Commander Liu also replied with a smile on his face: "I think it was most likely done by Li Yunlong. Just ask Li Yunlong and you will know."

The boss thought about it for a moment and understood what Commander Liu meant.

Cangyunling is the closest to the Independent Regiment, and Li Yunlong always likes to take people by surprise.

It is very likely that this guy did it.

Without the headquarters asking, the independent regiment's battle report was reported up the chain of command and arrived at the headquarters.

A staff officer came in happily holding a telegram.

Thanks to Li Jingrong, the 129th Division is one of the units equipped with the largest number of radio stations in the entire army.

So the news spread very quickly.

When Li Yunlong first heard the news, he was shocked for a long time.

The assault brigade just went out for some bicycle training, and they killed a Japanese lieutenant general, a major general, and a bunch of other officers?

And this person is most likely the new commander of the Japanese army, Yoshio Iwamatsu.

Last month, there were rumors that this old Japanese guy might replace Yoshio Shinozuka.

So it is very likely this old devil.

Even if he is not, as long as he is a lieutenant general, it is enough.

Those who can sit in the position of lieutenant general are not simple people.

Li Yunlong looked at Li Jingrong. This man was simply his lucky star.

He went out and came back with the head of a Japanese lieutenant general.

So he reported what happened in detail.

"Commander, a telegram from the Independent Regiment."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff took it directly and said with a smile: "Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Commander Liu is right."

Commander Liu just smiled and said nothing.

If it was really done by the independent regiment, this would be recorded on the honor wall of the 129th Division, and he would naturally be happy.

After reading the contents of the telegram, the Deputy Chief of General Staff could not help but laugh and cry. He said in surprise, "You are all wrong this time. The Independent Regiment did do this, but it was not Li Yunlong who did it."

Both the boss and Commander Liu cast puzzled glances at the Deputy Chief of General Staff.

The Deputy Chief of General Staff said directly: "Because this was done by Comrade Shenlan, and the process was really quite funny."

"Doesn't the Independent Regiment have an assault brigade? Comrade Shenlan is the instructor of this spearhead unit."

"It just so happened that the assault team went to Cangyun Ridge for training at that time, and they happened to run into Iwamatsu Yoshio there to pay tribute to Sakata."

"By accident, the assault brigade bombarded them with mortars, which killed Iwamatsu Yoshio."

"It also killed quite a few officers, including a major general. These officers must have come with Iwamatsu Yoshio to take up their posts."

After hearing the Deputy Chief of General Staff's explanation, neither of them knew what to say.

After a while, the boss finally said, "It seems that God wants this Iwamatsu Yoshio to die. But what surprised me the most was Comrade Shenlan. Not only did he deliver weapons and supplies to us, he even helped me kill a Japanese lieutenant general."

"Report this matter to Yan'an Direction, and strive for a first-class individual merit for Comrade Shenlan, and a first-class collective merit for the assault brigade."

The Deputy Chief of General Staff nodded and said, "I think so. The more honors Comrade Shenlan has, the closer he will be to us."

"As for joining the D, there's no need to force him. I asked him before, and he's not interested in political parties or anything like that. As long as his heart is committed to the revolution, that's all that matters."

The boss agreed, "Indeed, and if Comrade Shenlan joins D with his identity, it will actually be a hindrance to him. Let's do it this way."

"One more thing, doesn't Comrade Shenlan have a guard team around him?"

"If this escort team doesn't have an identity, it will be somewhat inconvenient to move around."

"I think we can give this private security team a formal identity and call it the Deep Blue Security Brigade. They will be dedicated to protecting Comrade Deep Blue's safety. They will not be under the leadership of any department or any person and will only obey Comrade Deep Blue's orders."

The bosses knew that during the Battle of Ling County, this escort team had used advanced weapons to participate in the battle, which was why they were able to defeat the 41st Division in one battle.

If this private guard force has an official identity.

They can then participate in subsequent battles openly instead of being restrained.

Although this force is outside their command system, it is Deep Blue's private army, and those who know the situation cannot say anything.

When Li Jingrong received the news, he was still a little surprised.

Now the number of guards has exceeded 100, some of whom are professionals he trained in the biochemical cabin.

As his personal guard, it was indeed somewhat inconvenient for them to move around in the independent regiment, and they seemed out of place.

But after the headquarters gave the guard team this identity, this problem was indeed solved.

Since the battle of Ling County, Li Jingrong has had some new ideas about this guard team.

To be honest, with the black technology shield and the space-time gate, he has no problem with safety at all.

Normally, the guards are just there to make up the numbers and are of no great use at all.
