Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

This was the contact method he had agreed upon with Liu Ruyan and others in advance. As long as this mark was seen, someone would come to take the information away.

After completing all this, Lu Yang returned to the patrol team as if nothing had happened, without alerting others.

However, things did not go as smoothly as he imagined. One day later, he overheard a conversation between several Japanese soldiers during training.

"I heard that Captain Yamada discovered a suspicious sign, and it seems like a spy has sneaked in."

"Really? Then we must investigate thoroughly. We must not let spies ruin our plans."

Lu Yang's heart tightened, but he pretended to be calm on the surface. He knew that his actions might have been discovered, and he had to take immediate action.

That evening, Lu Yang was summoned to Captain Yamada's barracks. "Mr. Lu Yang, someone reported today that suspicious markings were found nearby. I heard you left the team alone this morning," Yamada said with a cold look in his eyes. "Can you explain?"

Lu Yang calmly replied, "Captain Yamada, I did leave the team. I had a stomachache and went to the woods to relieve myself. I don't know what the suspicious mark was."

Captain Yamada was not easily convinced and ordered a body search of Lu Yang. Lu Yang remained calm and did not have any suspicious items on him. Captain Yamada frowned, looking a little disappointed. "Have someone check the markings in the woods."

Lu Yang's heartbeat quickened, but he tried to remain calm and said, "Captain Yamada, I have done absolutely nothing suspicious. Please trust me."

Captain Yamada gave him a cold look and said, "To be on the safe side, we must conduct a comprehensive inspection of all soldiers. As you know, there have been rumors recently that the Chinese are secretly operating."

Two days later, Captain Yamada received the results of his inspection. The markings in the woods had not been discovered by anyone else, and only a few patrolling soldiers had noticed something suspicious, but no concrete evidence was found. However, his suspicions about Lu Yang persisted, and he instead arranged for a soldier to follow him.

Lu Yang knew his situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, but he couldn't just sit there and wait, so he decided to take the initiative. That night, he sneaked into the armory under cover of darkness, aiming to ignite some of the explosives, creating chaos and allowing him to escape.

He carefully entered the armory, found the place where the explosives were stored, quickly lit the fuse, and then immediately left. As soon as he left the armory, a violent explosion was heard behind him, and flames shot up into the sky.

"Someone blew up the armory!"

"Put out the fire! Catch the suspect!"

The entire stronghold fell into chaos. Lu Yang took advantage of the chaos to run to the stables, mounted a fast horse, and galloped away. The shouts of the pursuers behind him grew increasingly distant, but he dared not relax even a bit, galloping all the way until he reached the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city saw a wounded "Japanese officer" running towards them and raised their guns to guard. "Who is it?" a soldier shouted.

Lu Yang jumped off his horse and said, "I'm Lu Yang, quickly notify Liu Ruyan and Lao Wei!"

The soldiers recognized him and immediately opened the gate to let him pass. They sent someone to inform Liu Ruyan. A few minutes later, Liu Ruyan hurried over and saw Lu Yang covered in wounds. She anxiously asked, "Lu Yang, what happened?"

Lu Yang panted, "I got the enemy's attack plan, but my whereabouts were exposed... I had no choice but to blow up their arsenal to escape. Quickly gather everyone, we must formulate a countermeasure immediately."

Liu Ruyan nodded. "You take a rest first. I'll gather everyone right away."

Lao Wei, Ye Wanru, and others also rushed over after hearing the news. "Boss, you really tried your best," Lao Wei patted Lu Yang's shoulder, "Don't worry, we will make good preparations."

Lu Yang told everyone everything he knew, including the Japanese army's troop deployment and attack plan. Everyone looked solemn after hearing this.

"It looks like this is going to be a tough battle," Lao Wei said, looking at the map. "We must make full use of our existing resources and make comprehensive deployments."

Liu Ruyan also nodded and said, "Fortunately, Lu Yang has figured out their details beforehand, so we can arrange defenses accordingly."

Ye Wanru clenched her fists, "This time, we're going to make sure they never come back."

Three days later, the Japanese army launched an attack on the mountain city as planned. Captain Yamada led his troops and was determined to win.

However, the defenders of the mountain city had already made sufficient preparations. Under the command of Lu Yang and others, they took advantage of the terrain and advanced step by step, causing huge casualties to the Japanese army.

"Captain Yamada, our attack encountered stubborn resistance and we suffered heavy casualties." A soldier came running to report breathlessly.

Captain Yamada gnashed his teeth in anger. "How is it possible? How did they know our plan?"

However, no matter how angry he was, the defeat of the battle was inevitable. The defenders of the mountain city not only dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army on the front battlefield, but also set up ambushes in several secret passages leading to the mountain city.

During the fierce battle, Captain Yamada tried to organize a final counterattack. However, the defenders of the mountain city relied on their intelligence advantages and sophisticated tactical coordination to repel the Japanese offensive time and time again.

Captain Yamada fell to the ground, his blood staining the ground red. 1 Several Japanese soldiers in the command center were stunned by this sudden scene. Before they could react, Lu Yang rushed up like lightning, and with a sharp knife, he killed them cleanly and neatly. 1

"Hurry up! Take all these documents away!" Lu Yang whispered to several team members who arrived later.

They quickly searched the entire headquarters and packed up all the important documents and maps. Before leaving, Lu Yang left a striking mark on the wall - a word "righteousness" drawn in blood.

After completing all this, Lu Yang led his team members to quickly evacuate the Japanese camp and disappeared into the dark night.

The next day, when the sun rose, the mountain city had returned to its former tranquility. But behind this tranquility, a bigger storm was brewing.

Liu Ruyan, Lao Wei, Ye Wanru and others sat around the table, carefully studying the documents and maps brought back by Lu Yang.

"I didn't expect the Japanese to be so ambitious," Liu Ruyan said with a frown. "They not only want to occupy the mountain city, but also use it as a springboard to further invade the entire country."

Old Wei slammed his fist on the table. "These bastards are really going too far!"

Ye Wanru calmly analyzed the enemy situation. "From this map, it seems the Japanese troops are mainly deployed in the east and west of the city. The defense in the south is relatively weak."

Lu Yang nodded, "That's right, we can take advantage of this, concentrate our forces, and open a breakthrough in the south of the city."

"But there are too many enemies. Can we hold on?" Liu Ruyan asked worriedly.

Lu Yang took a deep breath and said, "We must defend it even if we can't! The mountain city is our home, we must not let the Japanese occupy it!"

He paused and continued, "I've come up with a plan. We can..."

Lu Yang elaborated on his battle plan in detail, including how to take advantage of terrain, how to mobilize troops, how to set traps, etc.

After listening to this, everyone felt that this plan was very feasible and expressed their agreement.

"Okay, let's do it!" Old Wei made the final decision. "Let's take action immediately and prepare for battle!"

Over the next few days, the city entered a state of intense preparation for war. The common people spontaneously organized themselves to reinforce the city's defenses, transport supplies, and contribute their own strength to the war of resistance.

At the same time, Lu Yang was also busy, leading a small team to sneak into the area controlled by the Japanese army to conduct reconnaissance and sabotage activities.

They blew up the Japanese army's arsenal, destroyed the Japanese army's communication lines, and caused considerable trouble to the enemy.

"These guys are truly omnipresent," said Japanese commander Ichiro Yamada, furious. "We must find them and tear them to pieces!"

However, Lu Yang and others were like ghosts, appearing and disappearing at random, making it difficult for the Japanese to guard against them.

Finally, the moment of the decisive battle arrived.

The Japanese army assembled a large number of troops and launched a fierce attack on the mountain city.

The sounds of artillery fire, gunshots, and shouts of killing resounded through the sky, and the entire mountain city was shrouded in smoke.

Lu Yang stood on the city wall, calmly directing the battle.

"Hold on! We must not let the Japanese attack!" he shouted.

The defenders of the mountain city fought bravely and built an indestructible line of defense with their flesh and blood.

The battle was extremely brutal and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

"Report! Emergency in the east of the city!" A soldier ran to report to Lu Yang.

Lu Yang frowned and gave a decisive order: "Let Lao Wei bring people to support!"

"Report! The west of the city is also under fierce attack by the enemy!" Another soldier ran to report.

"Let Liu Ruyan bring people to support!" Lu Yang said without hesitation.

He knew very well that this was a critical moment and he could not retreat in the slightest.

The battle lasted for three days and three nights, and the defenders of the mountain city repelled the Japanese attack again and again.

"This group of people is so tenacious." Looking at the troops who had suffered heavy casualties, Ichiro Yamada felt frustrated. [5] He had not expected that the resistance in Yamashiro would be so fierce.

"Major, we can't go on like this," an officer suggested to Yamada Ichiro, "Why don't we retreat?"

"Retreat?" Yamada Ichiro's eyes widened. "How can we retreat? We are soldiers of the Empire of Japan!"

"But we don't have many troops left," the officer said helplessly. "If we continue fighting, we will be completely wiped out."

Yamada Ichiro fell silent. He knew what the officer said was true, but he was unwilling to accept defeat.

“No, we can’t retreat!” Yamada Ichiro suddenly shouted, “We must fight to the last man!”[4]

He drew his command knife and pointed forward, "Charge! For His Majesty the Emperor, charge!"

The remaining Japanese troops, led by Ichiro Yamada, launched a final charge.

Lu Yang looked at the crazy enemy, a cold glint in his eyes.

"It's time to end this." he said to himself.

He raised his gun and aimed at Ichiro Yamada...

Lu Yang pulled the trigger, and the bullet whizzed out, hitting Yamada Ichiro right between the eyebrows. Yamada Ichiro's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it, and then slowly fell to the ground.

"Major Yamada is dead!" the Japanese soldiers shouted in horror and immediately lost their composure.

Lu Yang seized this opportunity and shouted, "All troops, attack! Drive the devils out!"

The defenders of the mountain city were so inspired that they rushed towards the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains. The Japanese army lost its command and suffered a series of setbacks, which made them demoralized. They were quickly defeated.

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" The remaining Japanese officers gave orders in panic and fled the mountain city in a hurry with their remaining troops.

Looking at the enemy's embarrassed escape, the soldiers and civilians of the mountain city cheered and celebrated this hard-won victory.

"We won! We defended the mountain city!" People hugged each other excitedly, their eyes blurred with tears.

Lu Yang stood on the city wall, looking at the cheering crowd, a gratified smile on his face.

He turned to look at Liu Ruyan, Lao Wei, Ye Wanru and others beside him and said solemnly, "This victory belongs to everyone who has worked hard for Shancheng."

Liu Ruyan nodded, tears glistening in her eyes. "Yes, we have lived up to the expectations of the people of Mountain City."

Old Wei laughed heartily. "What a joy! What a fucking joy!"

Ye Wanru stared at Lu Yang silently and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

Lu Yang shook his head. "As long as we can defend the mountain city, it's worth it no matter how hard it is."

However, he was not carried away by victory. Lu Yang knew very well that this was only the victory of a battle, and the road to the war of resistance was still long.

At this moment, a messenger rushed in. "Report! A Japanese military telegram has been intercepted!"

Lu Yang took the telegram and quickly scanned it, his brow furrowed. "The Japanese army is gathering its forces and preparing to launch a new round of attacks on the mountain city."

Everyone looked at each other with serious expressions.

"It seems that our battle is not over yet."

The morale of the crowd was high, and they shouted in unison: "Defend the mountain city to the death!"

Lu Yang nodded and began to deploy a new defense plan. "Old Wei, you will be responsible for organizing the militia and strengthening the city's defenses. Liu Ruyan, you will be responsible for coordinating logistics and ensuring the supply of supplies. Ye Wanru, you will lead the reconnaissance team and closely monitor the movements of the Japanese troops."

At this moment, a drizzle suddenly fell from the sky. The fine raindrops seemed like messengers from nature, gently falling on everyone's faces, bringing a touch of coolness and freshness. The raindrops hitting everyone's faces seemed to cheer them up, injecting them with new strength and courage.

Liu Ruyan's gaze involuntarily fell on Lu Yang. His face, wet with rain, its sharp features becoming even more distinct. A wave of tenderness welled up in her heart, as if the drizzle had also moistened the depths of her heart.

"Lu Yang, you should also take care to rest and not overwork yourself," Liu Ruyan said softly, a hint of concern in her voice. Lu Yang smiled slightly, a smile as warm as the spring sunshine. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Ye Wanru stood quietly by the side. She silently handed Lu Yang a handkerchief and said, "Wipe it, don't catch a cold." Her words were simple and direct, but full of care.

Lu Yang took the handkerchief, wiped the rain off his face, and then returned the handkerchief to Ye Wanru, "Thank you."

"What's our next step?" Liu Ruyan walked over to Lu Yang and asked softly. Her eyes were focused and serious, as if she was expecting Lu Yang's answer.

Lu Yang retracted his gaze and turned to look at Liu Ruyan. His eyes were firm and decisive. "The Japanese army will not give up. We must prepare in advance. Lao Wei is already strengthening the city defenses, but more time and resources are needed."
