This killer star of the War of Resistance Against Japan was only 9 years old.

The remaining Japanese soldiers have now stopped attacking the air-raid shelter.

They were scattered far apart, some lying on the ground nearby, others hiding behind trees.

However, the gun barrels were all pointed at the entrance of the air-raid shelter, forming a semi-circular encirclement.

When Miyamoto Musashi arrived, he learned about the current situation from the Japanese squad leader and was overjoyed.

He had been to this air-raid shelter earlier that night, so he knew its general layout and that there were no supplies inside.

This air-raid shelter originally had two exits, but the other exit was sealed off with concrete a long time ago, so now the air-raid shelter only has one exit.

The people in this group are very likely the same ones who assassinated Prince Asaka.

Thinking of this, Miyamoto Musashi immediately ordered his troops to surround the air-raid shelter within a 2-kilometer radius.

He did not rush to attack the air-raid shelter, based on the squad leader's account and the fallen soldiers at the entrance of the shelter.

He knew that the people inside were well-armed, and the squad leader had also reported that almost everyone inside had an automatic weapon.

Now that he had trapped the people inside the air-raid shelter, Miyamoto Musashi was no longer in a hurry.

So he planned to wait for the people from Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan in the rear to arrive here so he could discuss countermeasures with them.

After all, the commander of this regiment was Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan, not Miyamoto Musashi.

If a forced attack on the air-raid shelter results in a large number of casualties, Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan will definitely have objections.

6:15 a.m.

Xiao Quanzhou Jiyuan led his artillery squadron to the entrance of the air-raid shelter, but the heavy artillery pieces slowed down their march.

This is why Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan is only now arriving at the entrance of the air-raid shelter.

Upon seeing that Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan had arrived, Miyamoto Musashi immediately went to greet him.

He briefly described the terrain inside the air-raid shelter and the battlefield situation to Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Quanzhou Jiyuan said to Miyamoto Musashi next to him.

"Miyamoto-kun, now that we've confirmed the enemy can't escape, let's feed our soldiers and replenish their strength. After the meal, we'll launch a feint attack to deplete the enemy's ammunition in the air-raid shelter."

It's a pity we rushed into Haishi this time and didn't bring any special ammunition, otherwise we could have poisoned them directly.

After hearing what Koizumi-shu Jiyuan said, Miyamoto Musashi thought for a moment and felt that this was the only way for now, and his soldiers were indeed a bit tired.

At 6:30 a.m., the sun rose. Today was a rare sunny day, and the sunlight dispelled the last trace of darkness in the early morning.

The situation around the entire air-raid shelter is now clearly visible.

There is a large open space at the entrance of the air-raid shelter, about 500 square meters, and several cars are parked on one side of the entrance.

Trees are scarce on the mountain, and most of them grow in the limited soil or crevices between rocks.

Because the entrance to this air-raid shelter faces east, sunlight penetrates into the shelter for about 10 meters, reaching all the way to the corner at the end of the passageway.

This also allows the Japanese soldiers surrounding the area to see the situation about 10 meters inside the air-raid shelter entrance.

The Japanese squad leader in charge of surrounding the entrance surveyed the surroundings with binoculars and then turned his attention to the air-raid shelter.

The cave entrance was clearly visible, and there were no guards in sight, suggesting that the people inside had already evacuated the entrance.

Just as the Japanese squad leader was about to report this situation to Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan, he suddenly vaguely saw something hanging above the corner at the end of the cave entrance.

The Japanese squad leader increased the magnification of his binoculars and looked closely, and was shocked to find that it was a human head hanging above the corner of the air-raid shelter.

Thinking of Prince Asaka, who had been beheaded, the Japanese squad leader had a guess in his mind.

In an instant, the Japanese squad leader's heart was filled with raging anger.

Suppressing his anger, he ran without delay toward the temporary command post of Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan and Miyamoto Musashi.

"What? Are you serious?" Miyamoto Musashi and Koizumi Shuji asked after hearing the report from the Japanese squad leader.

The two of them jumped up from their chairs.

Miyamoto Musashi reacted the most, grabbing the Japanese squad leader by the collar and staring at him with the eyes of a hungry wolf.

"Can you say that again."

The Japanese squad leader trembled slightly, frightened by Miyamoto Musashi's gaze. But he still stammered and repeated it.

"Colonel Miyamoto, the people inside... hanging above the first corner of the air-raid shelter... hang a human head... possibly the head of a prince..."

"Bagya Road!"

After listening to the stammering report from the Japanese squad leader, Miyamoto Musashi was so angry that he shoved the squad leader away.

They charged straight out of the Japanese command post, with Xiaoquanzhou and Jiyuan following closely behind.

Once the two men reached the front of the first layer of the Japanese encirclement, they raised their binoculars to carefully observe the area above the cave entrance.

Sure enough, as a gust of cold wind rushed in through the opening, a spherical object at the top of the air-raid shelter was swaying from side to side.

Seeing this scene, the two men's anger reached its peak.

Just then, a Japanese communications soldier ran up to Miyamoto Musashi and Koizumi Jiyuan.

"Report to the regimental commander, a telegram from headquarters."

The Japanese communications officer handed the telegram in his hands to Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan.

After receiving the telegram, Xiao Quanzhou Jiyuan opened it and his expression grew increasingly grim.

Seeing the grim expression on Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan's face, Miyamoto Musashi hurriedly pressed for an answer.

"An order from the home base?" His tone was filled with urgency and anxiety.

Xiao Quanzhou Jiyuan did not answer Miyamoto Musashi's question, but instead handed the telegram in his hand to Miyamoto Musashi.

Miyamoto Musashi quickly accepted it.

The next moment, Miyamoto Musashi's face also darkened, even though there was no mention of punishment for him.

The telegram read that news of Prince Asaka's beheading had spread throughout the Dragon Kingdom and surrounding countries.

Now Japan has become an international laughing stock. A single regiment of soldiers couldn't even protect their own prince, who lost his head.

Some Western countries even sent mocking telegrams to their Emperor Tianhuang.

In Japan, a country that highly reveres locusts, this was simply intolerable, and the news dealt a severe blow to the morale of the people.

The headquarters ordered that Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan must retrieve the prince's head within one day at all costs, and capture the enemy who killed the Japanese prince alive and bring him back to the mainland for a public trial.

This was done to appease the emotions of civilians and soldiers within the country.

Miyamoto Musashi felt incredibly ashamed at that moment, and looked up at the head hanging inside the air-raid shelter.

Xiao Quanzhou Jiyuan gritted his teeth and immediately ordered, "The First Battalion, attack the air-raid shelter immediately and retrieve His Highness the Prince's head!"

"Hi."

The captain of the large brigade next to him didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately ordered one of his squads to launch an attack.

This time, Xiaoquanzhou Jiyuan is also determined to use the lives of his men to deplete the ammunition of those inside.

To avoid injuring heads on the bunker, even hand grenades were prohibited.

Zhang Weiguo and the others inside the air-raid shelter also heard the commotion coming from the entrance.

One by one, they released the safety on their guns, pointing the muzzles at the corner.

As soon as the Japanese show their faces, we guarantee to send them back to their hometowns immediately.
