Chapter 243: Learning about the Japanese encirclement and suppression of the guerrillas

The car drove towards Akao Hiroichi's home. In the car, his face was calm, but Tanaka Daiei clenched his fists and was furious.

Akao Hiroichi said, "Tanaka-kun, there's no need to be like this. I had anticipated this outcome. I have a favor to ask of you!"

Tanaka Daiei quickly said, "You go ahead!"

"After I die, please take good care of Sakurako for me and don't let her be bullied by others. I don't want her to be harassed by other men!"

Tanaka Daiei leaned forward and promised, "Hey! As long as I'm in the Special High Technology Department, no one will dare to take advantage of Madam Akao! If anyone tries to do anything bad to Madam Akao, he will be the enemy of the entire Special High Technology Department!"

Akao Hiroichi patted Tanaka Daiei on the shoulder to express his gratitude.

Tanaka Daiei always believed that Akao Hiroichi did a very good job as the head of the Special High Technology Section. He was good at using people, took good care of his subordinates, and was willing to take responsibility for them. Everyone in the Special High Technology Section respected him. The reason why he ended up like this today was because the enemy was too cunning and too powerful, not because Akao Hiroichi was incompetent.

In his opinion, no matter who becomes the head of the Special High Technology Section, he may not be able to do the job as well as Akao Hiroichi.

After returning home, Akao Hiroshi told Yukawa Sakurako about his funeral arrangements, and then met with the heads and deputy heads of several departments of the Special High Technology Department. He then drove the crying Yukawa Sakurako out of the quiet room.

He was kneeling on the tatami with a white cloth tied on his forehead and a samurai sword wrapped in white cloth placed in front of him. Tanaka Daiei, the kaishakunin, was kneeling beside him with the sword in his hand.

Akao Hiroichi thought he was not afraid of pain or death, but he felt that he was wrong. He almost did not have the courage to stab the samurai sword into his abdomen. At this time, Tanaka Daiei, who was the executioner, came into play and helped him, but his death process was extremely painful and lasted for a long time, which made him suffer a lot.

Tanaka Daiei, who watched the entire process of Akao Hiroichi's suicide, swore that if he had to die in the future, he would never do it this way. He would only shoot himself with a bullet to make his death more comfortable.

In view of the poor performance of the Shanghai Special High Technology Department in recent times, the Japanese top leaders no longer have much confidence in the abilities of everyone in this department. Instead of promoting from within, they decided to parachute in a section chief from the local area.

Until the new section chief arrives, the affairs of the Special High Technology Bureau will be temporarily handled by Daiei Tanaka.

Zhang Yunhe learned about this during his routine listening to the surveillance recording that night. He was deeply saddened by the death of Akao Hiroichi.

"Akao Hiroichi died too early. He was actually a good opponent. We don't know what kind of person the new Special High Section Chief sent by the Japanese high-ranking officials is. We still need to investigate carefully!"

"Why didn't Tanaka Daiei take over Akao Koichi's job? This guy is so clueless!"

"I didn't expect the Special High Technology Department is still investigating the missing arms case. This case hasn't been shelved yet. It seems these goods are really hot to sell. We can't sell them anytime soon. Even if we do, we have to find a reliable buyer!"

After listening to the monitoring recordings in the office of the head of the Special High Technology Department, Zhang Yunhe turned to listen to the monitoring recordings of the expeditionary force headquarters.

One of the conversations caught Zhang Yunhe's attention.

"Your Excellency, Commander, three guerrilla groups have recently appeared in southern Jiangsu. These guerrillas are elusive and frequently attack our supply convoys, raid our security forces' strongholds, rob our weapons and ammunition depots, and even kill many officers from our vassal army who have defected to us!"

"Therefore, these three guerrilla groups pose a serious threat to our rule in that area!"

The person who spoke seemed to be Tsukada, the chief of staff of the expeditionary force headquarters. Zhang Yunhe recognized his voice.

Matsui spoke next: "Tsukada-kun, what do you think?"

Tsukada said, "Commander, I've sent Army intelligence officers to investigate and learn that these three guerrilla groups have a total strength of approximately 300 men, roughly the size of a battalion, with each group consisting of approximately men. I've developed a battle plan to eliminate these three guerrilla groups, and I'd like to review it for you."

"Okay, let me see!"

A few minutes later, Matsui said, "I think this battle plan is fine, but there are a few places that need minor revisions. I've already underlined the areas that need revisions. Please consider it carefully!"

"If we want to implement this plan, we have to do it sooner rather than later. If we delay it too long, I'm worried that the news will leak out again!"

Tsukada frowned and said, "Your Excellency, you have no confidence in our intelligence system?"

Matsui sneered and said, "If our intelligence system is powerful enough, how could they not have received any information about the huge amount of wealth before it was stolen? If they are powerful enough, why is there no news related to that treasure until now?"

"Headquarters was bombarded, the camp was bombarded, a bomb was planted at the East Asia Hotel, the venue for the New Year's party, killing a large number of people, and an entire shipload of munitions was missing. And so on, why didn't the Special High Technology Department, the Military Police Headquarters' Special Branch, the Army Intelligence Department, and the Navy Intelligence Department receive any news?"

"The major incidents that occurred on our side, especially the three ships whose ammunition was either stolen, disappeared, or blown up, were immediately exploited by Jiangzhou to catch the Imperial Army off guard during the Battle of Pengcheng. It's clear that the Blue Shirts Society and the underground party have infiltrated us. Our intelligence department is a tattered sieve from top to bottom."

Tsukada agreed with Matsui's statement, "Your Excellency is right. At least in terms of the intelligence confrontation in Shanghai, we have been completely defeated. The Blue Shirts Society and the underground party's infiltration capabilities are too strong!"

Matsui asked, "How many people know about this plan?"

Tsukada replied, "Including you and me, there are six of us. The other four are the headquarters' operations staff!"

Matsui then asked, "How long will it take to mobilize troops, combat supplies, and resupply ammunition?"

"Three days!"

"Which troops are you going to send to carry out this combat plan?"

"Ikeda Battalion!"

After a moment's thought, Matsui said, "One battalion is more than enough to encircle and suppress 300 people. Starting tomorrow, I order the Ikeda Battalion to launch this military operation three days later. We must do our utmost to ensure the guerrillas don't escape!"

"Hi!"

Inside the hospital ward, Zhang Yunhe frowned upon hearing this. "These three guerrilla units in southern Jiangsu are in danger. They only have 300 men, while the Japanese have nearly 1000 men per battalion. Using 1000 men to encircle and suppress 300 men, if the guerrilla units aren't adequately prepared beforehand, it'll be difficult for them to survive this crisis. It seems we need to infiltrate the expeditionary force headquarters and get hold of Tsukada's battle plan!"

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yunhe felt the location of the operation in his abdomen. Because he had used the Iron Blood Warrior's healing liquid, after a day of rest, his movements were no longer affected.

The nurses in this hospital would check the ward every two hours at night. Zhang Yunhe immediately put on the iron-blooded suit, turned off the lights in the room, and left the ward in stealth.

Half an hour had passed since the last ward round, and he had to be back within an hour and a half.
