Spy Wars: Red Agent Codename Phoenix

Chapter 1729 Iron-Blooded Special Forces

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Very good! Just as Kong Ling said that you suspect I didn't go to the front line."

Minister Chen instructed Wu Shi: "Old Wu! Listen to Advisor Chu and send a telegram to the gentleman."

"Yes!"

Wu Shi hurriedly accepted the order.

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Let's add one more thing: Yokoyama Isamu boasted that he would storm into Chongqing in three weeks."

Minister Chen said angrily, "This guy is incredibly arrogant."

Xiang Chu stood up and said with a wry smile, "Minister! I still need to go back and train my Iron-Blooded Special Forces, and I also need to catch Japanese spies. I'll head back first."

Minister Chen said urgently, "Kid! Japanese spies are particularly rampant when the Japanese are fighting. Doihara Hiroshi's Bamboo Agency spies are infiltrating the front lines. Check here for me first and see if there are any Japanese spies."

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Didn't you just finish arresting them here? There are no Japanese spies here. Don't be afraid of Doihara Kenji; his every move is under my control."

Minister Chen laughed and said, "Alright! Anyway, you're in charge of my safety."

Xiang Chu patted his chest and said, "No problem! Leave it to me."

Minister Chen handed him a roster and said with a smile, "These two thousand new recruits are mostly college students who have just enlisted. I'll have Wu Shi send them to you later to bolster your Iron-Blooded Special Forces."

You should train the student soldiers well, so that every one of them can go into battle and kill the enemy.

Xiang Chu took the roster and glanced at it, then shook his head and said, "Minister! College students are the future of our country. Sending them to the front lines is tantamount to destroying our future."

Minister Chen said impatiently, "Kid! You're a general, a top-class pilot, a super spy, and you still went to the front lines, didn't you? You should train your troops properly and try to reduce their casualties."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Alright! But I need to transfer a group of veterans from the 34th Army to lead them."

Minister Chen shouted, "Wasn't your 34th Army disbanded a long time ago? How are you going to transfer veterans now?"

Xiang Chu took out a roster and said with a smile, "I also have a roster. These hundred veterans are guarding those caves behind the Three Gorges. Why not transfer them to the front? Don't be reluctant. If Shipai can't be defended, and Chongqing's waterways are wide open, there's no point in guarding the back."

Minister Chen took the roster and nodded, saying, "You're right, only one hundred and eight people, no problem!"

Xiang Chu clapped his hands and laughed, "Great! Our Iron-Blooded Special Forces will soon be ready for combat. With the Minister being so easy to talk to, you will surely go down in history for this Battle of Western Hubei."

Minister Chen waved his hand and said, "This is a bloody battle. It would be a blessing if we could hold on. Go and get busy."

"No delivery!"

Xiang Chu waved his hand and turned to leave.

A motorboat is drifting on the Yangtze River in Yichang.

Hiroshi Doihara was sitting leisurely fishing on the side of the boat.

He held a cigarette between his fingers, letting it burn out completely.

Seeing that he hadn't caught a single fish after so long, Ushijima Sekiko couldn't help but step forward and advise, "General! Just rob the Chinese fishermen of their fish, why bother fishing so hard?"

Doihara Hamaji pulled up the fishing hook and said with a sly smile, "Did you see that? This general is imitating Jiang Ziya of the Western Zhou Dynasty fishing. Those who are willing will take the bait."

Ushijima Sekiko shook his head and said, "I don't understand! Sekiko only knows that you can't catch fish with a straight hook."

Doihara Hamako rolled his eyes at her and said coldly, "Keep it to yourself! Don't you understand? I'm waiting for Yokoyama Isamu to give me terms in exchange for my intelligence."

Ushijima Sekiko scoffed, "General! You sit here fishing all day long, what intelligence could you possibly have?"

Doihara Hamaji said with a smile, "I am waiting for good news from Takahashi Kosei and Yamada Motoo."

Ushijima Sekiko suddenly realized, "I understand! You're waiting for Tojo Seikaze's men to bring you the troop deployment on the Chinese front."

Doihara Hama pinched her chubby face and said with a smile, "Hmm! So smart, no wonder you're my woman."

The Japanese radio operator rushed over and reported loudly, "General! The Takahashi reconnaissance team has sent a telegram saying they did not find Tojo Seikaze in Ōryū Village."

Doihara Hamako shouted angrily, "What?! Why haven't we waited? Go now! Order Takahashi Kosei's reconnaissance team to continue forward."

"Hello!"

The Japanese radio operator hurriedly received the order.

Ushijima Sekiko said thoughtfully, "General! Could it be that Tojo Seifu is deliberately playing a trick on you? Did he not send any attendants to Oyashi Village at all?"

Doihara Hamaru said bitterly, "That damned Tojo Aofu, how dare he deceive my feelings! Kuga! Go to the bridge and inform the captain to approach the south bank of the Yangtze River immediately. I will personally lead the Sakai Squadron forward to play a reconnaissance and vanguard role."

Ushijima Sekiko advised, "General! The elite troops of the 11th Army have not yet arrived. Why put yourself in danger because of anger?"

Doihara Hama said with high spirits, "As an Imperial General, I should charge ahead for my superiors and die a heroic death! Go and inform the captain that the motorboat is approaching the south bank and will take me ashore. I want to realize my ultimate dream."

"Such nice words, huh!"

Ushijima Sekiko snorted coldly and walked towards the driver's seat.

Doihara Hiroshi shouted, "Keep it under control! Telegraph Yamada Motoo and order Sakai Battalion to halt their advance and wait for me to come and take command."

"Hello!"

Ushijima Sekiko turned around, bowed, and accepted the order.

Doihara Hamako muttered to himself, "Where exactly is that scoundrel Tojo Aofū hiding now?"

Enshi Sandouping, Gaojiazui.

Iron-Blooded Special Forces, Cooking Squad.

Tojo Aofū killed the cook who looked similar to him and then infiltrated the ranks.

Of course, infiltrating the cooking squad was the result of his observations and planning over many days.

The Iron-Blooded Special Forces had just been established, and the soldiers were quite unfamiliar with each other, so no one paid any attention to him.

The cooks were also responsible for delivering meals to the various units, which helped him figure out the troop deployment in the area.

He observed the surrounding troops every day, and then waited for an opportunity to poison them and escape.

That day, the cook ordered, "Ye Yuan! Today you will take some men to the mountain pass to deliver meals to the officers."

Tojo Aoka was overjoyed, feeling that his chance had finally come, and asked with a smile, "Squad leader! Is the leader of our Iron-Blooded Special Forces living inside the mountain pass?"

The cook sergeant scolded, "You're just going to deliver food! Why are you asking about these things? Hurry up and go."

"Yes!"

Tojo Aofu hurriedly accepted the order.

He led a new recruit, and the two of them carried food straight to the mountain pass.

The new recruit asked with a laugh, "Brother Ye! Is there really a chief living in the mountain pass?"

Tojo Aofu nodded and said, "Definitely! Let's put down our load under the big pine tree up ahead and rest for a bit."

"okay!"

The new recruits happily accepted their orders.

Before long, the two approached the large pine tree.

Below lies the deep and secluded Qingjiang Gorge.

"Bang!" There was a sound.

Tojo Aofu picked up a carrying pole and smashed it on the head of a new recruit.

The recruit was bleeding from a head wound and fainted on the spot.

Tojo Aoka kicked the new recruit into the Kiyogawa River.

Then, he picked up his load and headed towards the mountain pass.

The whole process was completed in one go, without any delays.

Several spies witnessed the scene from the forests on both sides.
