The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters

Commander Cheng's quick acceptance of Long Fei's proposal actually stemmed from deeper considerations.

“Deputy Commander Luo, since you are willing to go with Commander Long to rescue the Yunnan Army, my idea is that you take a regiment to find a suitable area nearby and establish a base behind enemy lines.”

"At that time, our team will have two bases, which can support each other and expand rapidly."

Deputy Commander Luo nodded hurriedly and said, "Commander, your idea is good. Please rest assured, I will definitely carry out your instructions."

Long Fei naturally had no objection to Commander Cheng's idea. Establishing more bases in the Japanese-occupied areas would not only allow for flexible attacks on the Japanese, but also provide a powerful restraint on them.

After the discussion, Commander Cheng immediately issued an order for Deputy Commander Luo and Long Fei to assemble the troops and depart as quickly as possible.

In order to reach Yuwang Mountain as soon as possible, Long Fei secretly dispatched fifty Gimxi trucks and two Willys Jeeps equipped with M2 machine guns.

Deputy Commander Luo's regiment has more than 1,100 men, plus Long Fei's 500 men, and 500 trucks are enough.

Long Fei ordered Xie Qiang to send men with walkie-talkies, and two Willys Jeeps to lead the way.

In case of any situation, report it immediately via walkie-talkie to ensure the safety of the entire marching team.

After setting off, Deputy Commander Luo knew that Long Fei's troops had advanced weapons and equipment and extraordinary combat power, but after all, the Japanese had two regiments with 50,000 to 60,000 troops besieging the Yunnan army.

Therefore, he was still somewhat unsure, so he found Long Fei to ask him during a temporary rest stop along the way.

"Commander of the Dragon Legion, may I ask how many troops your Dragon Flame Legion currently has?"

When Deputy Commander Luo asked this question, Long Fei knew exactly what he was worried about.

"Deputy Commander Luo, our Dragon Flame Legion currently consists of eight armies, from the First to the Eighth, plus an independent Seventy-Third Army, with a total strength of over 60,000."

After Long Fei frankly told him, Deputy Commander Luo felt a weight lifted from his heart.

"That's great. Your Dragon Flame Legion is an elite force, and its weapons and equipment are top-notch."

"Our current troop strength is similar to that of the Japanese. I believe that rescuing the Yunnan army is not a problem for us."

Judging from Deputy Commander Luo's tone, he clearly believed that Long Fei would lead his troops in a bloody battle against the Japanese.

This also shows that Deputy Commander Luo did not understand Long Fei well enough, or rather, he did not know that Long Fei would never easily let his troops confront the Japanese head-on.

They've all transmigrated and possess the mighty War God System, crushing the Japanese invaders in no time.

Moreover, Long Fei already had a plan to eliminate these two Japanese divisions.

"Deputy Commander Luo, the Japanese 5th and 10th Divisions that attacked Taierzhuang have been completely wiped out by us."

"I didn't expect that the Japanese would not only not cancel the designations of these two units, but would rebuild them so quickly."

"Therefore, this time I must annihilate these two Japanese divisions again. After being completely wiped out twice, I do not believe that the Japanese will rebuild them a third time. I want to completely cancel the designation of the Japanese Fifth and Tenth Divisions."

Long Fei's troops were of equal strength to the Japanese troops, yet he vowed to annihilate them completely, which was indeed hard for Deputy Commander Luo to believe.

Of course, Deputy Commander Luo couldn't show it, so he nodded.

"With such confidence from the Dragon Legion Commander, do you already have a battle plan?"

Long Fei looked north and suddenly recited a poem.

"Crimson flames rise over Yu Mountain, the east wind howls and cherry blossoms wither. I wield my sword and tread the path of conquest, the dragon's flames burn the Japanese invaders here."

Although Deputy Commander Luo understood the meaning of Long Fei's poem, he didn't understand how it had anything to do with the battle plan he had asked about.

Just as Deputy Commander Luo was lost in thought, Xie Qiang, who was standing behind Long Fei, clapped loudly.

"Commander, what a poem! What a poem! It's full of killing intent and momentum, and most importantly, it rhymes."

Long Fei turned his head and glared at Xie Qiang, who chuckled and hurriedly asked again.

"Commander, you're in high spirits and have recited some beautiful lines. From what I'm hearing, you're probably planning to burn these sons of bitches to death again."

Upon hearing this, Deputy Commander Luo exclaimed in surprise, "Commander Long, how are we going to burn tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers?"

"Flamethrower tank".

Long Fei replied with four words in a serious tone, without further explanation, then turned around, got into the car, and ordered them to continue moving forward.

This completely baffled Deputy Commander Luo. Sitting in the car, the words "flamethrower tank" that Long Fei had mentioned kept echoing in his mind, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't figure it out.

Because not only had he never seen one, but he had never even heard of the words "flamethrower tank" before, Deputy Commander Luo couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After Long Fei got into the car, he began to summon Xiao Bai Bai.

"Little Bai, the Japanese have two divisions besieging the Yunnan army defending Yuwang Mountain. So in order to ensure the complete annihilation of these tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers, I need flamethrower tanks."

"Are you addicted to roasting Japanese pork?"

"Stop talking nonsense and just say whether you'll give it to me or not."

"Of course we can give it to you. You have already eliminated 200,000 Japanese soldiers and puppet troops, and your level has been raised to Silver Level 20."

"Here's what I'll do: I'll give you three hundred 'Crocodile' flamethrower tanks and one hundred American-made M26 Pershing heavy tanks, equipped with enough ammunition."

Long Fei asked with a surprised tone, "A crocodile flamethrower tank produced by the Lion Country during World War II?"

"Yes, that's right. This flamethrower tank is the most powerful flamethrower tank of its time."

"The Crocodile Flamethrower Tank was developed based on the Churchill heavy tank."

"The trailer behind the tank can carry 1,000 liters of fuel and can spray up to 60 times, with a maximum spray distance of about 100 meters."

"Moreover, the jetting rate reaches 21 liters per second, giving it a very strong instantaneous suppressive force."

"And it has both dry spray and wet spray attack modes, which is self-explanatory, right?"

Long Fei hurriedly agreed, "Okay, that's it. But why are you giving me a hundred M26 Pershing tanks?"

"Let me compare it with you. This tank was specially developed by the United States to counter the Tiger and Panther tanks of the Han country."

"OK, thanks."

"You're welcome, Little Dragon. Keep it up! Your poem is pretty good. I'm just waiting to see the show."

This time, when Xiaobai called Longfei "Little Dragon Boy," he wasn't really angry. He just chuckled and then went into the system to check if the reward had been put into the warehouse.

Xie Qiang had the soldiers leading the way bypass the areas defended by the Japanese, so the journey went relatively smoothly.

After traveling more than 300 kilometers, they arrived at Xu Peng's camp before dark.

Everyone was very happy to see Long Fei safely return with his team.

After Long Fei introduced Deputy Commander Luo to everyone, Xu Peng hurriedly reported.

"Commander, the Japanese 5th and 10th Divisions have been launching a full-scale attack on the Yuwang Mountain line for two days."

"The Yunnan Army fought bravely and was well-equipped, and repelled many Japanese attacks."

"However, because the Yunnan Army lacked heavy artillery, it was unable to pose a threat to the Japanese. Instead, many soldiers were killed or wounded by the Japanese artillery fire."

"After I led my troops here today, I immediately sent out several reconnaissance teams and discovered two Japanese artillery positions, which I have now taken care of."

"I originally planned to launch an attack on the Japanese flank and rear tomorrow, but now that you're back, we'll follow your lead on how to fight next."
