Yoshio Shinozuka simply got an urgent telegram from Takakura Shotaro as soon as possible, and he was furious to mobilize the elite Itagaki Division to participate in the plan to attack the base of the new regiment in Hengshan.

A marshal of the Japanese Kingdom, Prince Zaihito of the Imperial Palace, who held the command of the army and navy of the Japanese Kingdom, was ambushed by others so easily, even Yoshio Shinozuka was completely calm at this time.

At this time, Taro Miyano, the chief of staff of the First Army, who was standing in front of Yoshio Shinozuka, also had a very ugly face. The two princes who were ambushed before had already made the face of the first army of the Japanese army disgraced, and now even the high-ranking and powerful Xianyuan Gong Zairen was ambushed and killed, which made Miyano Taro feel that the new regiment, a powerful enemy army, must be killed.

"Your Excellency, Commander, it is not clear at the moment whether it was the work of the new regiment! Shall we order Shotaro Takakura to lead his troops in pursuit and see how it goes! Now, it's a matter of how to report this matter to His Majesty the Emperor! Taro Miyano said with a solemn wry smile.

As soon as he said this, the old devil Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly smiled bitterly.

Xianyuan Gong Zairen was ambushed, and this was already the third prince to be killed within his jurisdiction. If Hirohito knew, he would be furious, and he would be furious.

"Miyano-kun, you can figure out a way!" Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand and ordered Taro Miyano.

Taro Miyano pondered for a moment, the combat power of the new regiment was really shocking. First of all, in the battle of Cangyun Ridge, the new regiment was surrounded by the Sakata Wing and fought from the front. and also killed the Sakata United Wing Captain Sakata Nobutusuk. After that, he successively killed the wing captain Abe Jiro, attacked the Japanese troops stationed in various parts of Jin Province, and then ambushed and killed Fushimi Palace Toshihiko and other two devil princes from a distance, until now, the third prince is likely to be done by Li Yunlong.

This series of achievements made Miyano Taro feel very much that against the new group, they were still underestimated until this time.

"Your Excellency, Commander, let's report to His Majesty the Emperor in secret! His Royal Highness Prince Zaihito of Xianyuan Palace was ambushed, and this matter should not be publicized. I believe that His Majesty the Emperor will not be willing to spread it, but our First Army must act! Miyano Taro paused, and could only say that.

Yoshio Shinozuka pondered for a while, and was shocked by the ambush and killing him so quickly. But at this time, Taro Miyano was right, even if he hid other high-ranking Japanese soldiers, he couldn't hide Hirohito.

"Yo Xi!"

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded, and then said solemnly, "Miyano-kun, you personally sent an urgent telegram to His Majesty the Emperor to inform His Highness of the Kanin Palace. As for the front-line troops, he ordered Takakura Shotaro's troops and Izuku's reinforcements to join forces and pursue the ambushed Shina Army. Be sure to entangle the enemy forces that ambush His Royal Highness and annihilate them! I want to see which Chinese army ambushed His Royal Highness's special train. ”。

"Ha Yi, Your Excellency Commander, obey your orders!" Taro Miyano said with a heavy pause, and turned to leave.

Yoshio Shinozuka got up and walked to the table where the map was placed, looking at the map of Jin Province and its surrounding areas with a solemn look in his eyes. Since the new regiment broke through from the front of Cangyun Ridge, the combat effectiveness of this squadron has been rising like a rocket. The strength was strong, with a small regimental level force, killing the Japanese garrisons all over Jin Province and suffering heavy casualties.

In particular, the probability of the death of Japanese officers in various parts of the Japanese army in Jin Province was much higher than that of ordinary Japanese soldiers. So much so that now Yoshio Shinozuka knows that the Japanese staff officers at the headquarters privately laughed that the probability of the death of officers of the First Army was higher than that of Japanese soldiers.

Although it is a joking name, Yoshio Shinozuka knows that the combat effectiveness of the new regiment, which seems to be a small number of Chinese army troops, is really strong.

The troops of this branch of the army must be killed, especially Li Yunlong, who must be killed. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles!

At this time, when Yoshio Shinozuka was angry and ordered Takakura Shotaro's troops to chase Li Yunlong and others to the death. Li Yunlong and the others had already ridden their war horses and retreated along the foothills of the western foothills of Dabie Mountain, along the route they had been rushing to when they came.

At this time, the weather conditions are relatively good, and there is no longer heavy snow in the sky, but light snow continues. Although the snow on the ground is deep, most of the soldiers of the new regiment who are attacking this time are local soldiers from Jin Province and are familiar with the situation in various parts of Jin Province.

Therefore, retreating north from the ambush site easily distanced oneself from the Japanese pursuing force of Takakura Shotaro.

"Commander, the devils in the back have been chasing after us along the traces we left behind. There are already two groups of devil reconnaissance planes in the sky passing over our heads! It seems that the little devil is going to die in an endless rhythm! After the two Japanese reconnaissance planes roaring in the sky and flew away, Duan Peng, who had been hiding from the path, got up and said to Li Yunlong in surprise.

Li Yunlong smiled and said, "The Xianyuan Gong Zairen we killed is a heavyweight prince of the devil, and his military rank is already at the level of marshal. Moreover, this Xianyuan Gong Zairen is still a senior officer who holds the command power of the devil, and in the Japanese army, he is considered a heavyweight high-level. This kind of character was easily ambushed and killed by us, Yoshio Shinozuka knows, even if he chases down a Japanese wing, it is not a pity! ”。

After a pause, Li Yunlong continued, "By the way, has the team of pathfinders in front returned?" ”。

"Nope!" Duan Peng shook his head and said, "But according to the time, it should be back soon!" ”。

At this time, the soldier in charge of the radio station rushed to Li Yunlong and Duan Peng, saluted, and then reported to Li Yunlong: "Regiment commander, political commissar call!" ”。

Li Yunlong took the telegram and looked at it, his face suddenly became solemn, and it seemed that things were not good.

Duan Peng quickly said, "Commander, what's wrong?" ”。

"According to Zhao Gang's urgent telegram, we ambushed and killed the prince of the devil, Xianyuan Gong Zairen, which has angered the old devil Yoshio Shinozuka! Yoshio Shinozuka has already decided that he is ready to mobilize the main force of the Itagaki Division to participate in the battle to attack Hengshan, and our new regiment is in big trouble this time! Li Yunlong said solemnly.

Duan Peng said: "Commander, how could Yoshio Shinozuka know so quickly that the old devil who ambushed the Xianyuan Palace Zairen was the work of our new group? That's! ”。

"I guess Yoshio Shinozuka guessed it! Forget it, let's not talk about that. In addition, Zhao Gang's telegram said that the Japanese garrisons and puppet troops in Fuping, Lingshou, and Quyang have secretly advanced westward, preparing to intercept our northward retreat! Li Yunlong continued.

"The Japanese army in three places intercepted us?" Duan Peng said in surprise!
