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

Inside a square wooden box was a glass jar, and inside the glass jar was a man's head soaking in a medicinal solution.

"Commander Long, this was discovered by the troops in an exhibition hall. There was this photo and this sign next to it at the time."

After saying that, the monk handed the plaque to Long Fei.

Long Fei picked it up and took a look, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"These sons of bitches dare to treat our anti-Japanese heroes like this. If I don't avenge this, I'll hang myself on the cherry blossom tree on Mount Undying."

"Commander Long, what does the sign say? I don't recognize the Japanese characters. I only heard them say that it is the head of one of our anti-Japanese generals."

Long Fei lit a cigarette to calm himself down, and then spoke to the monk.

"This is the head of Liu Guiwu, the major general and commander of the 6th Cavalry Division of the Northeast Army."

"In April 1938, General Liu's 6th Cavalry Division, along with General Ma's troops, was surrounded by the 28th Brigade of the 14th Division of the Japanese army near Hongyouganzi Village in Zhangbei, Northeast China."

"In the end, General Liu, who was only 36 years old, died a heroic death, and most of the Sixth Cavalry Division also died heroically."

"After the war, the Japanese dug up General Liu's body, which had been spontaneously buried by the villagers, and even cut off his head to take pictures for amusement."

"General Liu's wife was also a heroine. When she learned that her husband's body was in the Japanese army camp, she went there alone and brought back her husband's headless body."

"Subsequently, the Nationalist government held a grand funeral for General Liu. However, unexpectedly, the hero's head was taken back to China by the Japanese and placed in a chemical solution for public display."

After saying that, Long Fei picked up the photo and said through gritted teeth, "It was this Japanese devil named Honma Genjiro who personally cut off General Liu's head."

The monk angrily cursed, "These bastards! Commander Long, we must take General Liu's head back and bury it with his body intact. We must also avenge General Liu!"

"Okay, first keep General Liu's head safe, and send it back as soon as we contact his family."

"As for revenge, this time I'm going to wipe out the Japanese 14th Division without leaving a single hair on its head."

Xu Peng, who had just come to discuss something with Long Fei, had been standing to the side with a grief-stricken expression, not saying a word, when he suddenly reminded him.

"Commander Long, the Japanese 14th Division was completely wiped out by us in the Lanfeng area, and their division commander, Kenji Sonodo, was also killed by us."

"According to the timeline, they were ordered to enter the pass to fight not long after they killed General Liu's troops in the Northeast, so we actually avenged General Liu a long time ago."

"Oh, is it so?"

Long Fei suddenly became extremely disappointed. Just as he was silent, Xiao Baibai told him in a very soft voice.

"Brother Long, the Japanese later rebuilt the 14th Division and sent them all to the Pacific theater. After Japan surrendered to you unconditionally, all Japanese troops should have laid down their weapons and surrendered."

"However, the commander of the 14th Division, Takamasa Iseki, refused to carry out the surrender order and led his troops to continue fighting the U.S. forces in the Palau Islands."

"However, a few days ago, the Japanese 14th Division suffered heavy casualties under the powerful offensive of the US army and finally chose to surrender."

"The remaining 12,000 Japanese soldiers of the 14th Division are currently being held by the U.S. military on Palau Island."

"Also, the Japanese soldier named Honma Genjiro who beheaded General Liu in the photo was sent back to Japan for treatment before you landed on the Japanese mainland. He should be recuperating at home right now."

With the latest information provided by Xiaobaibai, Longfei immediately made a decision.

Long Fei first decided to postpone his trip to the Korean Peninsula. Then he ordered Xie Qiang to immediately assemble a naval fleet and head to the Palau Islands to avenge General Liu.

Finally, Long Fei had the monk personally lead a team to Honma Genjiro's house and arrest him.

After hearing Long Fei's explanation of the situation, Xie Qiang was so angry he almost exploded. He had assembled a powerful naval fleet in just one hour.

Xie Qiang then proposed that he wanted to lead the fleet to the Palau Islands together with Long Fei.

Long Fei initially disagreed, saying that he was now the commander of the navy and needed to be in command.

Xie Qiang said that since Long Fei, as the supreme commander, had gone there in person, he, as the naval commander, had no reason to stay home. Moreover, Xie Qiang said that he would only feel at ease if he personally protected Long Fei's safety.

In the end, Long Fei couldn't resist Xie Qiang's insistence and agreed to his request.

The one who was most opposed was Xu Peng. Now, the Longyan Kingdom controls more than 10 million square kilometers of territory and has three million troops under its command. As the national leader and commander-in-chief of the armed forces, how could he risk his life?

Moreover, what Xu Peng couldn't understand the most was that the 14th Division had long been wiped out, and General Liu's revenge had already been taken.

Long Fei replied decisively: "Deputy Commander-in-Chief Xu, I believe that as long as the number of the Japanese 14th Division still exists and as long as there is one Japanese soldier still alive, it will be impossible to appease General Liu's spirit in heaven."

“You’re right. The 14th Division that killed General Liu has indeed been wiped out by us. But the Japanese have rebuilt, so we must wipe them out again.”

In the end, Xu Peng had no choice but to compromise, but he would have to face the US military, and there was a high possibility of conflict, or even a physical fight.

Therefore, for Long Fei's safety, Xu Peng demanded that not only one naval formation be sent, but at least a fleet should be sent, along with enough drones and a division of marines.

Although Long Fei felt it was completely unnecessary to make such a big show of it, Xu Peng was adamant that he would stop Long Fei even if it meant being shot, if he disagreed.

Of course, in the end, Long Fei chose to compromise and decided to lead the Eastern Fleet there, which finally made Xu Peng agree.

Three hours later, the monk returned safely with Honma Genjiro. Long Fei looked at the little Japanese soldier leaning on his cane and wished he could tear him to pieces on the spot.

"Monk, keep a close eye on this son of a bitch. When we go to Palau, we'll take a warship with us. As long as we have food and drink along the way and don't die, that's fine."

"Don't worry, Commander Long, I guarantee that this beast will live a miserable life but won't die during this period of time."

The Eastern Fleet made preparations overnight, and by noon the next day, everything was ready.

After Long Fei and Xie Qiang boarded the flagship "Dragon King", the fleet immediately sounded its horn and set sail south at high speed toward the Palau Islands.

Three days later, when they were more than 100 nautical miles from Palau Island, Long Fei ordered a telegram to be sent to the U.S. government.

In the telegram, Long Fei demanded that the US troops occupying the Palau Islands unconditionally hand over all prisoners of war from the Japanese 14th Division to the Longyan People's Army.

As for why he needed these Japanese soldiers, Long Fei did not explain in the telegram, believing it unnecessary to explain so clearly to the United States.
