They searched again along the Yuliao Highway, but the Yamamoto special team still found nothing.

In desperation, Yamamoto had no choice but to lead his troops into Liao County to rest and recuperate.

Due to the special nature of this mission, Yamamoto's special team did not deliberately hide their whereabouts. When they entered the county, their whereabouts were exposed and were seen by the Eighth Route Army's informants in Liao County.

Because the two Japanese squadrons stationed in Liao County rushed to the aid of the Black Island Regiment and were completely wiped out by the independent regiment outside Yushe County, Liao County was very empty of troops at this time.

Immediately, a piece of information about a group of strangely dressed Japs coming to Liao County was easily sent out of the county.

First they were delivered to the guerrillas, and then they were sent to the Eighth Route Army base areas.

Southeast Shanxi, the county seat of Liao County, inside the Japanese command post.

"Report to Colonel!" Captain Tanaka walked in with a radio transmitter on his back, "Commander Shinozuka wants to talk to you."

Yamamoto Kazuki took the radio expressionlessly and put it to his mouth: "Moses Moses, I am Yamamoto Kazuki."

"Yamamoto-kun, I am Yoshio Shinozuka, where is your department now?" The radio immediately heard the deep voice of Yoshio Shinozuka.

"Report to the general!" Yamamoto Kazuki said, "The Yamamoto special agent team searched again along the Yu-Liao Highway, but still no trace of His Highness the Prince. Our troops are currently resting in Liao County and preparing to return to Taiyuan tomorrow!"

"Yamamoto-kun, your guess is correct. I have received news that His Highness the Prince was indeed captured by the Eighth Route Army." Shinozuka Yoshio said.

Yamamoto Kazuki's mood did not fluctuate at all, and said: "In this case, the matter will be easy to handle. The general only needs to use prisoners of war and ammunition to exchange with the Eighth Route Army in exchange for His Highness the Prince. The Eighth Route Army is extremely short of ammunition, I believe they will definitely

I'm happy to do this business."

"It is not difficult to exchange with the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army also asked us to set a price." Yoshio Shinozuka said, "But the problem is that once this deal is made, the face of our First Army will be completely ruined. Yamamoto-kun, you can understand me.

What do you mean?"

Kazuki Yamamoto wanted to say that from the moment Major General Hattori Naoomi was beheaded, to the moment the entire Kuroshima Regiment was shattered, the First Army's face had been completely ruined.

But the other party was Commander Shinozuka, whom he also respected, so Kazuki Yamamoto still did not say these somewhat mocking words.

"Understood, General!" Yamamoto Kazuki said.

"You can understand, I'm very pleased." Shinozuka Yoshio said, "The commander of the North China Dispatch Army just called and said that Yoshiko Kawashima is going to carry out a rescue operation for His Highness the Prince, but this is a matter for our First Army, absolutely

We can’t expect outsiders to help us solve it!”

Yamamoto Kazuki said in a deep voice: "General, are you going to send the Yamamoto special agent team to rescue His Highness the Prince?"

"Yes!" Yoshio Shinozuka paused and said, "I will continue to deal with the Eighth Route Army, and you can take the opportunity to lead the Yamamoto special agent team deep into the Taihang bandit area and rescue His Highness the Prince!"

"But the problem is." Yamamoto Kazuki said, "We don't know where His Highness the Prince is being held. Without intelligence to support it, it will be difficult for the special agent team to make a difference!"

"Don't worry about this." Shinozuka Yoshio said, "I have already thought about it. It should not be difficult for all members of your special agent team to disguise themselves as Eighth Route Army and sneak into the bandit area to find out the location of His Highness the Prince. Later,

I will send planes to airdrop military uniforms and equipment from the Eighth Route Army to you."

Yamamoto Kazuki said: "Actually, strictly speaking, the rescue mission is not worthy of the special agent team. However, since this is the order of His Excellency the General, our special agent team should carry out it!"

Yoshio Shinozuka: "Yoshi!"

…

Southwest, Shuangqing City, Yuzhong District.

Military Command Bureau.

Zheng Yao, who was wearing a colonel's military uniform, knocked on the door first, and a strong voice came from inside the house: "Come in!"

Zheng Yaoxian is one of the eight kings of the military, ace agent, colonel, nicknamed Guiziliu.

Known for his cunning, wit and ruthlessness, he is actually an intelligence agent of our party code-named "Kite".

Zheng Yaoxian pushed the door open and walked in: "Seat down."

Behind the desk, the swivel leather chair slowly turns around.

Boss Dai said with a sly smile: "Lao Liu, are you here? Sit down quickly!"

He has a high hairline, honest appearance but kills people without blinking an eye. He is highly regarded by Chiang Kai-shek. He is Dai Yunong, the boss of the military command and the king of spies.

Zheng Yaoxian walked to the desk and said: "Secretary, if you want to find a low-level job to drink tea and chat, then I don't have time. I just destroyed a Japanese liaison station yesterday and captured three Japanese spies. I am in the process of investigating it."

interrogation.”

"Oh?" Boss Dai's expression changed and he asked, "Has the mouth been pried open?"

"What a shame, these Japs are quite tight-lipped. One day and one night passed, and they refused to say even a word." Zheng Yaoxian said, "But don't worry, Bureau Chief. Give me half a day, and I will definitely pry open this door."

The mouths of some little devils!"

"Old Liu, don't worry about these Japanese spies for now. They are just small fish and shrimps at best. Even if they really ask something, they may not be of much value."

"I have another important task for you to do."

Zheng Yaoxian asked: "Bureau, what's the mission?"

Boss Dai threw a newspaper on his desk: "Read this first."

Zheng Yaoxian picked up the newspaper, sat on the chair, and saw the headline: The 386th Brigade Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army once again severely damaged the Japanese army and annihilated the Black Island Cavalry Regiment.

"The 386th Brigade Independent Regiment?" Zheng Yaoxian narrowed his eyes, "I remember that the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment captured a county town half a month ago and won another battle? It also wiped out a cavalry regiment?"

In the past few days, Zheng Yaoxian has been busy taking down the Japanese liaison station. From surveillance to arrest to interrogation, he is in charge of the overall situation.

So I didn't pay much attention to what was happening outside, and I didn't know that the Eighth Route Army had won another battle.

Looking at the victory news in the newspaper, Zheng Yaoxian felt uncontrollable excitement in his heart, but there was a look of doubt on his face.

"Commander, what does the victory of these Eighth Route Army have to do with my mission?"

Boss Dai said: "When the Eighth Route Independent Regiment annihilated the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, they also caught a big fish. This person's name is Akamoto Akihiro. He is the prince of Japan. He is now in the hands of the Eighth Route. This is his information.

."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After finishing speaking, he threw another piece of information on the table.

Zheng Yaoxian picked up and opened the document bag. Inside there was a black and white photo and a piece of information. The man in the photo was wearing a Japanese Kwantung Army uniform and riding a military horse. He looked handsome and high-spirited.

I opened the back of the photo and looked at it. There were four words written on the back of the photo, Akamoto Akira, but the information only had a brief introduction about Akamoto Akira.

Looking at the photo, Zheng Yaoxian narrowed his eyes again and probably guessed what mission he was going to perform this time.

Boss Dai continued: "According to the intelligence, the Japanese army is dispatching troops. In addition to the Japanese First Army, it has also mobilized two divisions from North China to prepare to besiege the Central Army in Zhongtiao Mountain. If at this time

The Japanese prince died on the territory of the Eighth Route Army..."

"Boss, you mean to divert the disaster to the east?"

Zheng Yaoxian was shocked. If this plan really succeeded, the Japanese army would most likely turn their guns and go to encircle and annihilate the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army in southeastern Shanxi.

Although he was thinking this in his mind, his eyes narrowed slightly and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, showing a fierce and evil smile.

"That's right, it's just diverting trouble to the east." Boss Dai said, "I don't worry about sending someone else there. It's up to you, the hard-working Liu Liu, to go there."

Zheng Yaoxian frowned slightly.

Even if Boss Dai sends someone else to do this task, he will still fight for it.

If Boss Dai sends agents to assassinate him, it's okay if he doesn't succeed. Once he succeeds, it's okay.

That's a big deal.

The life and death of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army was at stake, so he had to take action personally.

"What?" Boss Dai narrowed his eyes, "If you don't want to, that's what the person above meant, and he personally ordered your general."

"That's not true. It's a matter of national importance, and I have no choice but to do my humble duty." Zheng Yaoxian pretended to be wrong, "However, that is the Eighth Route Army's defense area after all. I have a special status and have a lot of their blood on my hands. When I get there, even if I am not

If you kill him immediately, you may not be able to move even a single step."

"Don't worry, I've already arranged this." Boss Dai relaxed and said with a smile, "Of course you didn't go there as military commander Zheng Yaoxian. Didn't the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army win several battles? You just went there as "Central News Agency"

As a reporter from the Daily, I went to interview the independence group, and it happened to be the Japanese prince captured by this independence group. As long as you can find out the location of the Japanese prince, then..."

Boss Dai wiped his neck. He had no doubts about Zheng Yaoxian's assassination skills and skills.

As long as he can find Akamoto Mingyi's location, Zheng Yaoxian can make the opponent die quietly, and people can't find any flaws.

"Understood!" Zheng Yao nodded first.

But in my heart I was extremely angry and disdainful.

Just because the commander of the First War Zone, Wei Lihuang, disobeyed Chiang Kai-shek's orders and was unwilling to cause friction with the Eighth Route Army, he even gave the Eighth Route Army 1 million rounds of ammunition.

This was something Chiang Kai-shek couldn't bear under any circumstances. At this time, Chief Wei was still under house arrest in Mount Emei, Sichuan Province.

Although Zhongtiao Mountain is in southwest Shanxi, it still belongs to the First War Zone.

Moreover, there were nearly 200,000 Central Army troops on Zhongtiao Mountain. The Japanese army took advantage of the fact that Zhongtiao Mountain was leaderless and intended to launch a massive attack.

However, the top leaders of the party and state did not allow Chief Wei to return to the First War Zone to take charge of the overall situation, but instead thought about diverting the disaster to the east, which is simply ridiculous.

Isn’t the Eighth Route Army China’s national defense force?

"Very good." Boss Dai said, "I am very relieved that you are doing things, Sixth, but you must pay attention to your safety. I will wait for your triumphant return."

Zheng Yaoxian expressed his position: "I will be loyal to the party and the country, and I am willing to go through fire and water for my humble position."

Boss Dai nodded with satisfaction and said: "When we get there, I have a secret mission that I want to leave to you..."
