Under such powerful artillery bombardment, General Matsui and Prince Asaka Yasuhiko should have been killed instantly.

But these two bastards were incredibly lucky; their guards rushed forward one after another to protect them at the cost of their lives.

After more than a dozen Japanese guards were killed, General Matsui was only injured in the right leg by the bomb, while Prince Asaka Yasuhiko's right eye was injured by shrapnel.

The two bastards were taken to the hospital for treatment as soon as the shelling stopped.

Although they survived, General Matsui was left with a permanent disability in his right leg.

As for Prince Asaka Yasuhiko, due to a severe injury to his right eye, the doctor, after consulting with the Empress, removed his eyeball.

After the shelling ended, Long Fei put all the Wild Bee self-propelled guns and 105mm howitzers into the system warehouse, and then let everyone get on the vehicle and head to Chuxian County.

Sitting in the car, Xie Qiang recalled the two lines of poetry that Long Fei had recited earlier, and suddenly a question came to mind.

"Commander, I believe you when you say the red flag is flying over the Undying Mountain, but I think it's unlikely that you'll actually slay the Japanese emperor with a sword dance in Kyoto."

"Why?" Long Fei asked meaningfully.

"In the postwar trials of Japanese war criminals, there were only 28 Class A war criminals, of whom only seven were sentenced to death. The key point is that the highest-ranking of these seven was the prime minister."

Long Fei gritted his teeth and said bitterly.

"Xie Qiang, the Japanese Emperor is the real culprit, but do you know why he wasn't tried as a war criminal?"

Xie Qiang scratched his head; he really hadn't looked into this issue before.

"I don't know, Commander, can you tell me?"

Long Fei continued, "Because at the time, the United States, for political reasons and to facilitate the occupation and rule of Japan, did its utmost to prevent the Emperor from becoming a war criminal."

"What, I see. Well, those Americans are really annoying."

Long Fei patted Xie Qiang on the shoulder: "Actually, the emperor didn't have a good ending either. He got duodenal cancer and died after suffering for several months. It can be considered retribution for him."

Xie Qiang then said with emotion, "That's right, it's retribution. This news makes me feel a little better."

Looking ahead, Long Fei made a vow: "Now that we've transmigrated here, I will not let these sons of bitches, militarists, and warmongers get away with it."

"Not to mention these 28 war criminals, including the Emperor, and all the Japanese devils who have stained their hands with blood in our China, I will not let any of them go."

Although Long Fei's words were very satisfying, Xie Qiang still offered a word of caution with concern.

"But you also mentioned that the Americans might interfere. Are you planning to go head-to-head with the Americans?"

Long Fei nodded emphatically and said, "Don't you understand the United States? It's a hegemonic country, it's arrogant and domineering, and it uses the name of justice to invade and bully other countries."

Xie Qiang sensed something was off about Long Fei's words and frowned as he asked.

"Commander, so you mean..."

Long Fei gave Xie Qiang a deep look, and then said.

"My first goal is to eliminate the Japanese devils, and the second is to reshape the world order."

"what……"

Long Fei's words really startled Xie Qiang. This idea was too bold, no, it should be said that it was too crazy.

"Xie Qiang, so are you scared? Or are you determined to achieve this grand goal with me?"

"I..." Xie Qiang's mind was in a mess for a moment.

"Xie Qiang, since fate has brought us to this parallel world, why can't we realize our ambitions and achieve great things here?"

"Hiss..." Long Fei's words touched the depths of Xie Qiang's soul.

After a long while, Xie Qiang finally understood many things.

"Commander, you're right. Life is fleeting, like grass in autumn. If a man can make a difference in this world, then his life will not have been in vain."

They chatted all the way, and time flew by. In order to get to Chuxian County as soon as possible, Longfei told everyone to make do with compressed biscuits and canned food on the bus.

Finally, before nightfall, Long Fei's convoy entered Chuxian County.

About four or five kilometers from Chuxian County, Longfei's convoy encountered a Nationalist army checkpoint.

Xie Qiang took the initiative to get out of the car to negotiate, but unexpectedly the person in charge of the checkpoint did not agree to let Long Fei's convoy pass.

The other side's reason was simple: they did not have the unit number of Long Fei's, and therefore were not allowed to enter Chuxian County.

Xie Qiang's face turned ashen as he walked back to report to Long Fei.

Long Fei nodded, got out of the car expressionlessly, and walked straight to the checkpoint.

This checkpoint was guarded by a platoon of Nationalist soldiers, and was led by a second lieutenant platoon leader.

When the platoon leader saw Long Fei approaching with a stern face, he sensed that the visitor was up to no good and hurriedly ordered his men to raise their guns in preparation.

Upon seeing this, Long Fei's lips curled up slightly, showing no fear, and he walked up to the platoon leader.

Seeing Long Fei's imposing aura, the platoon leader felt a little guilty and said in a slightly trembling voice.

"Sir, as I just said, I have never heard of the National Army having a unit called the Dragon Flame Unit. Therefore, according to the superiors' regulations, you are not allowed to enter the city. Please take a detour."

"My Dragon Flame Army isn't your Nationalist Army's army, so why won't you let us into the city?" Long Fei asked angrily in a cold voice.

Upon learning that the Longyan unit was not part of the Nationalist army, the platoon leader immediately felt more confident.

"Since you're not Nationalist troops, you're even less allowed to enter the city. Leave immediately, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Long Fei suddenly laughed: "You haven't been on the battlefield or killed any Japanese soldiers yet, have you?"

Long Fei's sudden question actually stumped the platoon leader.

"Ah... I've never been on the battlefield, nor have I ever fought the Japanese. What's wrong?"

"That's why you speak so carelessly. Do you know how many Japanese soldiers our Dragon Flame Unit killed on the Shanghai-Nanjing battlefield and in the Battle of Nanjing?"

"Do I know that none of you are allowed to enter the city today?"

Seeing that the platoon leader was determined to stick to his guns, Long Fei was also furious.

He waved his hand, and Xie Qiang and Sun Haitao, seeing this, immediately led the first and second companies, rushing forward in a dense mass.

The platoon leader, who had been so arrogant just moments before, was so frightened by the sight of so many people rushing towards him that his legs went weak.

He only had one platoon of about thirty people, but the other side had more than two hundred.

Moreover, the second lieutenant platoon leader noticed that his side was armed with Hanyang rifles and Type 24 rifles, while the enemy was entirely armed with submachine guns.

He knew very well that if he opened fire, he didn't know if he could hit the enemy, but his thirty-odd men were definitely doomed.

"Sir, let's talk this out..."

Seeing that the other party's tone had softened, Long Fei said jokingly.

"I was just trying to talk to you nicely, but you didn't want to. So, now you want to talk to me nicely?"

The Nationalist platoon leader gave an awkward laugh: "Sir, I was just following orders. The county magistrate of Chuzhou said that he couldn't take in so many defeated soldiers, so he only allowed the Central Army to enter the city."

"We also prevented the 57th Army from entering the city a couple of days ago. Please bear with us, sir."

"What did you say?"

Long Fei was furious. With the country in crisis, these local governments were still showing favoritism and treating people differently. It was outrageous and disheartening.

"Get out of my way, I'm going into town to see your county magistrate right now."

The Nationalist platoon leader dared not say no, and hurriedly waved for his men to move the obstacles away, and then they all obediently stood aside.
