Spring City.

As the Tiger Guards began to mobilize, the entire Spring City was on high alert.

But as the Tiger Guards Brigade began to move, Teng Weihao felt that all he heard was bad news. They either intended to attack the east or they might attack Chuncheng.

It was a completely terrifying idea, but he wanted to change it, but he didn't know where to start.

"The wooden beam steel mill is under attack..."

Teng Weihao rested one hand on the table for a long time, his eyes were extremely cold.

This information was like a bolt from the blue, causing the entire conference room to fall silent in an instant.

In fact, he had been feeling tremendous pressure ever since the Tiger Guard Brigade began to mobilize. Even just a few short lines of intelligence made his expression even more solemn.

"Heavy troop movements have been made in Tonghua City and Tongliao City, with the Tiger Guards heading east."

Teng Weihao felt a little relieved when he heard the news about the Tiger Guards. At least it was better to have news than not to have any. After all, Lin Tianchen had carried out ambush attacks before. Now it was better to have news about Lin Tianchen than not to have any news at all.

But even so, every time Lin Tianchen mobilized his troops, he felt anxious and uneasy.

"What do you think the purpose of the troops heading towards Assimilation City is?"

Teng Weihaojiu said in a serious tone, Tonghua City is located on the edge of Changbai Mountain, bordering Goryeo in the south and Songliao Plain in the north. It has rich mineral resources and is conducive to the development of heavy industry.

It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, but with the example of Shengjing in mind, he must consider it seriously, because if the war situation turns unfavorable, he will never allow heavy industry to fall into the hands of the Huben Brigade.

We may not see anything in the short term, but once their attack is blocked and they cannot threaten the Huben Brigade area, it means that after the Huben Brigade is digested, its strength will become very strong.

Tonghwa City, as a strategic base, is only separated from Goryeo by a river. It was one of the springboards for the empire to enter the country and can also be used as a retreat line.

Now that the Manchus have moved to Tonghua, they have stored a large amount of civilian and military supplies there. It is an important stronghold in the three northeastern provinces and cannot be lost.

After Teng Weihaojiu finished speaking, the entire command room became much quieter, which made Teng Weihaojiu feel gloomy. With such a staff officer, others said that it was a big problem to win the battle, but even to defend it was a big problem.

However, those who were in the command room were not stupid. It was just that their strategy was broken by the Tiger Brigade. For an enemy that had never been defeated before, any decision seemed to be in vain. Naturally, they tended to wait and see in making some decisions.

But as Teng Weihao's eyes changed for a long time, they knew very well that they had to speak.

"Sir, besides the former commander who understands Lin Tianchen, the next person who understands him best is Kudo Sanben. I suggest that Kudo Sanben be reintegrated into the General Staff."

One of the staff officers hesitated for a moment, but still stood up.

As soon as these words were spoken, both the messengers and the staff officers expressed their high approval of this proposal.

"Right, right, right!!! Kudo Sanbon gave a lot of advice, but if the previous commander hadn't listened to any of it, he wouldn't have..."

"During the Battle of Jincheng, when the Guanjiu Division was surrounded, Kudo Sanben suggested a quick withdrawal and sent troops to Changling Mountain to provide support. Perhaps Guanjiu Division would not have been destroyed..."

"..."

In the command room, everyone was talking to each other. After all, when Kudo Sanbon was not around, the messenger was thinking all the time, and the same was true for them.

If Kudo Sanbon was here, at least there would be someone to stand in front of them, and the atmosphere wouldn't be so suffocating.

During this period, they truly felt the difference between having a Kudo Sanben University and not having one.

Such high prestige?

Teng Weihaojiu's face paused slightly, and he looked thoughtful. He didn't know much about Tanii Mijiro's most capable subordinates, but as he came to power, he naturally carried out a small purge.

Kudo Sanbon was one of them, but as he watched his staff members trying their best to give him advice, he suddenly felt that his behavior was a bit rash.

This could be a real talent.

"Where is he now?" Teng Weihaojiu asked in a serious tone.

"I heard we'll be taking the train back to the island..."

"Take the train back to the island? No, absolutely not... Our staff can't do without him."

One of the staff officer's words instantly received a warm response.

Teng Wei Haojiu felt that he had really underestimated Mijiro Tanii's most capable subordinate.

"If the train has already started, stop it and let it come back after it leaves Chuncheng." Teng Weihaojiu said decisively.

"Yes!" The messenger on the side walked very quickly.

Looking at this unhesitating back, Teng Wei Haojiu felt that he had also underestimated Kudo Sanben's prestige.

After dealing with Kudo Sanben's matter, Teng Weihaojiu fixed his gaze on the map, his eyes full of solemnity. After pondering for a long time...

"The Ino Division, and the two divisions supporting Tongzi Mountain, move towards Tonghua City!" Teng Weihao thought for a long time and finally spoke.

"Yes."

The staff naturally had no problem executing the order and acted very quickly.

However, as the Tiger Brigade was about to launch an attack, Teng Weihao looked at a corner of Chuncheng through the window for a long time, unable to calm his rapidly beating heart.

The train station in Spring City is extremely lively and noisy at this moment, but also reveals a strong sense of confusion.

After all, the news of the capture of Shengjing could not be concealed among many pioneering groups. Many people on the island could not help but feel worried, and many people began to return.

Rumble~

Steam rises and blends with the white snow.

Some people rushed to the battlefield, while others were eager to return home.

Just like Kudo Sanbon, although the sky was overcast and there was no sunshine to warm him, at this moment he felt more relaxed than ever before as he didn't have to face the troublesome Tiger Brigade.

No need to worry day and night, the war for authority is not going well, he wants to really return to his hometown, find a remote mountain village to enjoy his old age, and never want to face the existence that sees through human nature again.

"At this time, the cherry blossoms in my hometown are about to bloom..." Kudo Sanben exhaled lightly while holding a suitcase in his hand.

He threw all the Tiger Guards, telegrams, intelligence, and orders behind his mind. After all, he had no official position now.

There were people coming and going in the station, soldiers being quickly mobilized, and Kudo Sanben just wanted to stay away from the war, away from that dim command room, and never want to hear the shocking heavy artillery again.

And a name that makes you shudder.

The sound of gunfire is deaf to my ears, only the sound of iron colliding on the rails can be heard, which is the call of the island hometown.

"Finally... I don't have to face everything here..." Kudo Sanbon breathed a long sigh of relief.

The train's steam boiler began to roar again, and some people began to board the train.

Kudo Sanbon straightened his clothes, picked up the suitcase on the ground, and strode out.

Just at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps quickly appeared in his ears, causing Kudo Sanbon to frown slightly, but he just glanced at it lightly and walked towards the train.

He had only taken a few steps when the group of people surrounded him in the middle.

At this moment, everyone else at the train station knew that this was an important person.

"Sir, the Operations Staff cordially welcomes you back."

The rapid voice was full of sincerity and the panting brought by running.

???

Kudo Sanbon looked stunned and his steps were completely stiff. After all, he was a direct subordinate of Mijiro Tanii, so it was normal for him to be purged.

He didn't know what made Teng Weihaojiu change his mind in such a short period of time.

But in his heart he remembered the whistling sound of the train and didn't want to put down the suitcase.

Perhaps this brief silence made the leader of the team look more sincere.

"Sir, the headquarters really needs you. All the staff members hope you will stay. Sir Teng Weihaojiu has even explicitly requested that you be sent back even if the train has left..."

The soldier spoke in an extremely firm tone, causing Kudo Sanben to look at the train that had already been preheated and become a little dazed.

The train started, bursts of steam appeared, and the roar was extremely harsh at this moment. Under the cold wind, a train heading home slowly moved forward.

Little by little, it moved farther and farther away in front of him. Looking around, he saw a vast expanse of white. On the empty railway tracks, there were crushed gravels. Wasn't this his wish to go home?

"Let's go."

Kudo Sanben knew that he could not refuse, because refusing would mean disobeying military orders.

How could he not know the consequences of disobeying military orders?

Having chosen this path, he can no longer withdraw whenever he wants, and it is too late for him to turn back even if he wants to now.

Just like in the train station now, the soldiers were simply organized and entered the military train in batches and began to be dispatched. It was obvious that a new round of offensive by the Tiger Brigade had begun.

In Chuncheng City, a large number of Japanese soldiers were gathering and mobilizing rapidly. It was naturally impossible for them to hide completely, and many people could see it clearly.

At the cracks in the doors and in front of the windows in the city, many eyes were staring at the changes in the city.

In a courtyard, a middle-aged man in his forties couldn't help but curse under his breath after hearing the Japanese whistle.

"Liu Fu, where do you think these little devils are going to move to next?"

Ever since those little devils from Shengjing came in, the whole of Chuncheng has never been at peace. The curfew, searches, levies... and a series of other things were all initiated by those little devils.

These are not the most important things. The most important thing is that they are inferior to others when walking on the street.

As Xiao Guoyong spoke, he tightened the door latch, paused slightly, and spoke again.

"I guess something's going to happen again..." Xiao Guoyong couldn't help but sigh after finishing all this.

Now outside the walls of Chuncheng, there are still some dried heads hanging. Those posters and slogans on the walls remind him all the time and prick their nerves.

Now, there is a large-scale mobilization in the city, which is even more massive than the encirclement and suppression of the Resistance Alliance last year. During that period, most people did not want to go out, but they were still driven out of their homes by the Japanese to watch their wounded compatriots parade in the streets.

"You are truly ignorant. I vaguely heard that Shengjing suffered a defeat, and this large-scale exodus of the Japanese troops from the city was due to the Tiger Guards Brigade. Perhaps the Tiger Guards Brigade has launched a new round of attacks."

Liu Fu looked outside through the crack in the door and couldn't help but respond in a low voice.

Outside the door, there were fully armed Japanese soldiers who made him signal.

"Shenyang was captured by the Tiger and Leopard Brigade?" Xiao Guoyong was stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

This winter, the news that the Tiger Guards had captured Jincheng had become a topic of discussion among most people in Chuncheng after dinner, and many people were very excited.

Now Shengjing has been taken back?

The more Xiao Guoyong thought about it, the more excited he became. After all, a lot of news in Chuncheng was blocked by the Japanese. How could he not be excited when he suddenly heard this news?

"Shengjingdu is back, right? Is Chuncheng coming soon?"

Xiao Guoyong's tone couldn't help but weaken. He had been feeling depressed for more than ten years. He felt like he was being held captive. But in this chaotic world, what could a commoner like him do? What's more, he had been crippled by the Japanese devils.

Liu Fu remained silent for a long time, as if he was talking to Xiao Guoyong beside him, or to himself:

"Yes..."
