The Yamato Soul Commando formed by Kazuki Yamamoto was a force equipped with automatic firearms, equipped with German M38 submachine guns.
In the end, they were all wiped out in the 28th Regiment, and that batch of weapons naturally fell into the hands of Tubalu.
A little further back in time, when His Highness the Prince was ambushed, the submachine guns of the Prince's escort also fell into the hands of Tubalu.
And that unit was the 28th Regiment, the imperial army's most serious enemy.
He once heard Kazuki Yamamoto say that the 28th Regiment followed the example of the Yamato Soul Commandos and also formed a special operations team.
Qiu Chan, the Red Party member who was captured before, was rescued by this unit.
"Shinozuka-kun, have you thought of anything?" Okamura Neji asked, seeing Yoshio Shinozuka's thoughtful look.
"Reporting to your Excellency, General, there is indeed a team equipped with automatic firearms in Shanxi!" Shinozuka Yoshio paused and said.
Okamura Neji's eyes lit up and he said: "Say!"
"Reporting to Your Excellency, General, it is the 28th Regiment." Yoshio Shinozuka paused and said: "There is only such a team in the 28th Regiment in Shanxi."
28 regiment.
Hearing this, Okamura Neji was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect it was the 28th regiment again.
Since the last battle, he rarely heard news from the 28th Regiment. Unexpectedly, the 28th Regiment gave him a secret surprise.
Okamura Neiji could never figure out why every defeat of the Imperial Army was always related to the 28th Regiment.
They have to get rid of this 28th Regiment.
If they continue to ignore the 28th Regiment, they don't know how much trouble they will cause.
Because of the failure of the previous battle, the imperial army was recuperating, recuperating, and preparing for the next battle. It was difficult for them to start a new round of battle in a short period of time.
But before the war begins, they still have more things to do and prepare for.
"Shinozuka-kun, we can't go on like this." Okamura Neji said in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency, General, please clarify." Shinozuka Yoshio paused and said.
Okamura Neiji said: "We must fully understand all the information about the 28th Regiment, from their commander to each battalion commander.
Even the names, preferences, characteristics, and behavioral habits of each squad leader below, we all need to know."
Yoshio Shinozuka remained silent.
He wanted to know more clearly, but not only the 28th Regiment, but also other Eighth Route Army troops were like iron barrels, making it difficult to penetrate.
"Shinozuka-kun, we are really unfamiliar with the enemy in front of us. Until now, we don't have any useful information. Do you think it is appropriate?" Okamura Neiji asked.
"The enemy is very cunning. We have wanted to..." Yoshio Shinozuka wanted to explain.
Okamura Neiji stretched out his hand to stop him: "Shinozuka-kun, I don't want to hear any excuses or reasons now. I only want one result, and that is for the 28th Regiment to completely disappear from Shanxi!"
or…
Okamura Neji's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of a brilliant idea.
"Shinozuka-kun." Okamura Neji said.
"My humble duty is here." Yoshio Shinozuka paused and said.
Okamura Neiji added: "Call the person in charge of Shanxi Special Higher Education to see me. I have a brilliant plan."
"General, do you want to infiltrate people?" Yoshio Shinozuka dissuaded: "General, this matter is too difficult.
The Eighth Route Army will carefully screen their identities, and many of our agents have been exposed and disgraced."
"Who said I was going to break into the enemy?" Okamura Neiji smiled mysteriously: "Shinozuka-kun, just follow my order and call the person in charge."
"Hai!" Yoshio Shinozuka paused and walked quickly.
Okamura Neji leaned gently on the back of his chair, with a cold smile on his lips.
Who said that to check the situation inside the army, you need to penetrate into the enemy?
Don’t these Tubal Roads love the people like their own children and treat the villagers very well?
The Chinese people near the Eighth Route Army's station are their best cover!
As for those Allied pilots, Okamura Neji no longer had any worries.
Instead of digging into the horns of these defeated enemies, it is better to think of ways to deal with the enemy in front of you.
…
28th Regiment Headquarters.
The pilot training program is in full swing.
In order to better communicate with Sam, they added two more items to their daily classes, English and Japanese.
certainly.
This Japanese language was added by Ding Wei, because they might have to fly Japanese planes in the future, so these soldiers had to be able to understand what was on Japanese planes.
"Hey guys, flying a plane is not as difficult as you think." Sam waved his hand.
"Just like driving a car, just think of the airplane as a flying car. As long as you can step on the accelerator and pull the joystick, you have completed the first step!"
The eight pilots were sitting on the ground at the moment, looking at Sam like curious babies.
In front of them were various suggested operating stations, all of which were made according to the cockpit of the current aircraft.
The throttle and other equipment are all made.
Um…
In order to enhance their on-the-spot experience, Sam even prepared goggles for them.
Watching Sam training as a pilot, Robert was holding a steamed bun, munching and watching the show, looking back on his time as a recruit.
Seeing the way Sam scratched his head when the flight reserve team made a training mistake, they all staggered around laughing.
Originally, they wanted to continue watching, but unexpectedly, they were stopped by Sam before they were halfway through the play.
"Robert, do you think this is funny?" Sam quickly noticed that Sam and others were watching the show.
"Sir, no!"
Robert and others hurriedly stood up and said.
"If not, then come in and train. Do you think it's enough after completing the daily training courses?" Sam said sharply.
"Since you are all veterans, do flight demonstrations for these rookies!"
Seeing Sam's serious look on his face.
Robert and the others knew this was no joke, so they put away their playful smiles and quickly walked over to sit across from the recruits.
Because there is no other equipment, their difficulty is higher, and it is just a void performance.
The theatergoers have become the actors in the theater, which is not a very pleasant feeling.
They did whatever Sam said and experienced the recruit course all over again.
Being able to take novice flight training again is a moment worth remembering for these veteran birds. The expressions on their faces are full of happiness.
Seeing Sam teaching seriously and Robert and the others looking hopeless, Ding Wei found it very interesting. He couldn't remember how long he hadn't seen such a scene.
The matter of training pilots must have been negotiated by the headquarters and Allied commanders, so the matter was temporarily settled.
In the next few months, Sam and the others will spend time in the 28th Regiment.
…
358th Regiment Headquarters.
Inspired by Ding Wei's troops, 358 also started emergency selection.
There are more than 5,000 people in the regiment, all of whom participated in the training.
Chu Yunfei just said one word.
As long as you have the ability to be selected, I will never treat you badly. If nothing else, your monthly military pay will be doubled.
In order to strive for excellence, Chu Yunfei set the final number at 50 people. On average, if one person is selected from 100 people, he must be a leader in the army.
Chu Yunfei personally supervised and made some propaganda.
The entire 358 regiment was naturally very excited, and the entire regiment entered into an emergency selection process.
Except for the third battalion commander, the other battalion commanders didn't know what Chu Yunfei wanted to do.
"Lao San, how come things have changed like this after Tuanzuo talked to you?" the second battalion commander asked.
The commander of the third battalion said: "How do I know? Who knows what the commander wants to do."
Although he said he didn't know, he already guessed in his heart that his regiment leader wanted to imitate the 28th regiment and create such a small team.
"Who knows what our regiment is going crazy about. Now that we have this time, why don't we all relax and engage in such a mobilization of troops?"
Just as several battalion commanders were guessing Chu Yunfei's thoughts, a different voice appeared.
He was talking about none other than First Battalion Commander Qian Bojun.
"That's right, what's the point of raising an army and mobilizing a large number of people? The soldiers have just finished fighting and want to mess with this matter again." Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang Fugui said.
The 1st Battalion is the strongest battalion of the 358th Regiment. It has 2,000 troops and is almost equal to two other regiments in terms of strength.
Although these two people, one is the battalion commander and the other is the deputy battalion, they live the life of regimental-level officers.
Normally, as long as the two of them don't go too far, even Chu Yunfei will give them a bit of flack.
Seeing the two of them singing along, the other battalion commanders were dissatisfied, but they couldn't say anything because they were not strong enough.
"Tch, it's boring, I'm going back to sleep!" Qian Bojun said disdainfully, turned and left.
When Zhang Fugui saw Qian Bojun leaving, he also left with him.
Seeing the two of them walking away, the other battalion commanders dared to say what this was, and then their eyes fell on the training ground again.
The 358th Regiment suddenly started a large-scale training, which made everyone confused, but they were still proceeding in an orderly manner.
Many soldiers have been selected in the primary election, and the training ground is very lively.
Another place.
Japanese First Army.
Colonel Rei Ishikawa, the current section chief of Taiyuan Special High School, is standing respectfully in front of the table, his face full of excitement.
Except for the last time he was scolded by Okamura Neji at the venue, he had not seen Okamura Neji for a long time.
Now that Okamura Neiji actually summoned him in person and said that he had a task that he needed to complete, how could he not be excited?
"Um..." Okamura Neji looked at Ishikawa Rei and was about to say something, but suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to know his name.
That's right.
There is only a colonel. There are so many generals in the North China Command that I can't even remember the names of some generals, let alone a colonel.
Yoshio Shinozuka quickly noticed Okamura Neji's embarrassment and said calmly: "Ishikawa-kun, His Majesty the Colonel summoned you today because he has something important to entrust to you."
"Hai, thank you, General, for your kindness. Your humble position will definitely not disgrace His Majesty the General's expectations!" Ishikawa Rei said excitedly.
It turned out to be Ishikawa...
Shinozuka Yoshio came to the rescue, and Okamura Neji had a good impression of him.
"Ishikawa-kun, how many agents do you have who understand Chinese?" Okamura Neji asked.
Ishikawa Rei thought for a while and said: "Reporting to Your Excellency, General, if you ask me to understand, almost all my agents will say that I don't know what Your Excellency, General, wants to do."
"I need 50 agents who can speak Chinese fluently." Okamura Neiji said solemnly: "Remember, I mean fluent, and you must not be able to recognize their accent.
We must make them talk like a native Chinese, a native of Shanxi, just like the farmers near us!"
"This..." Rei Ishikawa was a little confused: "Your Excellency, General, there is no problem, if you don't have an accent..."
He can mobilize people and does not need any hidden missions. Although he can speak fluently, he will always have some Japanese accent."
"Ishikawa-kun, this is your business. I'll give you a month. In short, you must train a group of agents who can speak the local dialect!" Okamura Neji said solemnly.
What they are asked to do is to go deep into the enemy's base. If their accent reveals something, things will become very troublesome.
Ishikawa Rei fell into silence. One month was too late, and he did not dare to agree for a while.
"Ishikawa-kun, I believe in your ability. With your abilities, you will definitely be able to complete this task!" Neji Okamura encouraged.
"If this mission can be completed successfully, I will definitely ask the military department to take credit from you, write down a great credit for you, and ask His Majesty the Emperor to personally award you with a medal.
I don’t think you want to hold the rank of Colonel all the time, right?”
The implications of Okamura Neji's words are quite obvious.
Ishikawa Rei is not an idiot, so how could he not understand the meaning of this sentence? He immediately stood up and nodded, excitedly saying: "Hai, General, I will definitely not disgrace your expectations by holding such a humble position.
Within a month, I will definitely complete your task successfully."
"Xinxi, very good, Ishikawa-kun, I believe you, go and prepare now, I am waiting for your good news!" Okamura Neji said with a smile.
While speaking, he walked up to Ishikawa Rei and patted his shoulder gently to show concern.
After being tapped twice on the shoulder, Ishikawa Rei stood up and left the place quickly as if he had been beaten to death.
Seeing Ishikawa Rei walking away, Shinozuka Yoshio asked: "Your Majesty, General, I don't understand your humble position. What do you mean?"
Okamura Neiji said: "Shinozuka-kun, you want to say that my efforts are useless. The 28th Regiment will not let some unknown people join the army, let alone have access to secrets.
Even if you can join in, it will take a long time to get access to some core confidential documents, and there is simply not enough time left for the imperial army."
Yoshio Shinozuka was puzzled: "General, since you know everything, why do you do this?"
"You said Tubal Road helped these people so much, what would the people's attitude be towards the Eighth Route Army?" Okamura Neiji asked.
Yoshio Shinozuka: "Of course I respect him very much, and I will express my gratitude once I meet him."
Speaking of this, Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly figured out something.
"Your Excellency, General, do you want to..."
Okamura Neiji nodded and said: "That's right, I don't expect them to penetrate into the enemy and obtain some core secrets.
I just need them to make good use of their identities to find out as much information as possible about the 28th Regiment. I don’t think they will be so wary of these villagers.
What's more, the villagers who came here specially to express condolences to them, how can anyone easily refuse the love between the Eighth Route Army and the villagers?"
"But General, I still don't understand a little bit, what is the meaning of what we are doing?" Shinozuka Yoshio asked puzzledly.
"As a villager, no matter how good the relationship is, we cannot obtain any core secrets."
"Shinozuka-kun, who said my purpose is their core secret?" Okamura Neji snorted coldly.
"Since this group of Tubalists want to win the favor of the people, then I can destroy the image of the 28th Regiment in the hearts of the people!"
