"Chief, the agent we just infiltrated Zhangwu County has sent back the latest information, the 225th Infantry Wing sent from Yuncheng to attack Zhangwu County had an exchange of fire with the people of China outside the city, they have been routed by the people of China, the leader of the wing, Dingzo Takeda, has disappeared, more than 500 soldiers have been captured from the commander of the group, there are more than 30 officers, the flag of the wing and the command knife of the captain of the wing have been seized by the people of China" A telegram sent from Zhangwu County was translated and placed on the desk of Ichiro Sasaki, the head of the special high division of the Japanese army in Taiyuan.

"Baga, doesn't it mean that there is only a small unit of the Eighth Route Army and a group of local armed forces stationed in Zhangwu County? Why was the 225 Wing routed? Ichiro Sasaki couldn't help but be furious after reading the message, and waved his hand to sweep everything on the table to the ground. Once upon a time, as long as the battle flag of the Imperial Japanese Army was exposed from the horizon, even if it was just a flag tip, those weak Shina people would flee from the wind, and the 225th Wing with 3,000 people would actually be defeated by the Shina people, and it was also the best field battle of the imperial troops, this is really the biggest joke in the world, there must be something wrong with this, and there is a reason why the special high class does not know.

"It seems that there is a problem with the intelligence we bought from the national army in the early stage, the elite regiment of the national army that was ordered to be stationed in Zhangwu County did not really leave Zhangwu County, they just withdrew from the county and hid, and the 225th Wing was finally cut off by the infantry regiment of the national army" Sasaki Ichiro's assistant became quieter and quieter the more he spoke, and in the end he simply shut up. When the Japanese army had just entered China to carry out the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, the Special High School had obtained a lot of extremely important information from the officers of the Nationalist army who had plotted the rebellion, otherwise the Japanese army's attack on China would not have gone so smoothly.

"Director, this is Xi'an's newspaper yesterday, sent by our intelligence agent lurking in Xi'an, and there is a report from the 225th Wing on it" The secretary from outside sent in a copy of today's newspaper, if it wasn't very important, Sasaki Ichiro's secretary would never enter this office so casually. The newspaper sent by the secretary had a photo on the front page, a very large photo, and Ichiro Sasaki, who was already angry, became even worse and angry after seeing the photo. The photo shows the Japanese officers holding the team flag and command knife and bowing their heads to surrender to the national army officers, and the team flag is the team flag of the 225th Infantry Wing.

"Send someone to Xi'an to smash this newspaper for me, immediately contact our secret agent in Chongqing, and make sure to find out what the hell is going on? I want to know what happened in Zhangwu County" The furious Sasaki Ichiro did not lose the calm that an agent should have, and after yelling a few words, he realized that the problem should be on the Chongqing side, so he immediately ordered the activation of the deep Chongqing spies. The 225th Wing was routed in Shomu County, and with so many Japanese soldiers surrendering, Sasaki Ichiro never believed that it was the infantry regiment of the National Army that had done it all.

I have to say that it was Zhao Zhi's luck, after the first capture of Zhangwu County, Zhao Zhi's mercenaries accidentally captured the Japanese spies lurking in the county, and the information detected by the Japanese spies did not come from the county seat at all. And when Zhao Zhi returned to Chongqing to recuperate from his injuries and help Chiang Kai-shek train the troops, the information sent by the traitor revealing his identity was replaced by the military commanders, so so far, Zhao Zhi is not the target of the special high class, and the special high class does not know that there is such a person as Zhao Zhi who is active in Shanxi.

"After the high post in front, let's stop camping" Zhao Zhi looked at the high post not far from the front, and gave the order to camp in advance, compared with Ichiro Sasaki in anger, Zhao Zhi is very comfortable now, because he is on the way to Xi'an. After leaving the county seat and all the heavy equipment to Xu Yunzhao, Zhao Zhi took the mercenaries to carry his wounded subordinates and began to move towards Xi'an according to his established plan, the Eighth Route Army with heavy casualties was also in their ranks, Zhao Zhi needed to send someone to send them back to Yan'an first.

Compared with the Eighth Route Army, the casualties of Zhao Zhi's mercenaries were also very large, more than 100 were killed in battle, and dozens of them were wounded and lying on stretchers, so Zhao Zhi used all the heavy equipment to exchange all the mules and horses in the county with Xu Yunzhao, because some of the trophies had to be brought to Xi'an. Zhao Zhi and the others were accompanied by dozens of Japanese prisoners of war, who were war-weary, whom Zhao Zhi had selected from hundreds of Japanese prisoners of war to serve him, and Zhao Zhi needed these Japanese prisoners of war to serve him, and all Zhao Zhi had to do was send them back to Japan at the right opportunity.

Zhao Zhi originally wanted to implement his plan in Zhangwu County, but he didn't expect that after attacking the Madian Railway Station, the 37th Division of Yuncheng would be recruited, and after the 225th Wing was defeated, Zhangwu County would become a banner of the National Army's War of Resistance on the Shanxi battlefield, and more Japanese troops would be besieged here. Relying on this little bit of people in the hands of Zhao Zhi and Xu Yunzhao is not enough to fight with the menacing Japanese army, after all, the successful defeat of the 225th Wing is just a tactical trick.

"Sir, are we going to stay in Xi'an?" Compared with Eugene, Yan Wudao was more worried about Zhao Zhi's next plan. Although Xi'an was not occupied by the Japanese army, there were many local forces, and like Chongqing, there were many factions and seniority. Yan Wudao was worried that after they went to Xi'an, they might not necessarily get the treatment they had when they were in Chongqing, after all, the chairman of the committee was not in Xi'an.

"No, let's just stay in Xi'an for a while, after arranging things, let's go back to Shanghai, there are more important things waiting for us to do" Zhao Zhi, who was busy writing and drawing in a small notebook, paused and gave Yan Wudao a vague answer. I don't know if it was from the above time, Zhao Zhi likes to write down some things in the small notebook he carries with him in his spare time, there are thoughts about Rowling, and some whimsical ideas that suddenly flashed in his mind, of course, these ideas are for weapons and tactics.

Unlike those officers under Chiang Kai-shek who were born in Whampoa, Zhao Zhi's ability to fight a war comes from large and small tasks, as an international mercenary from the 21st century, Zhao Zhi has also experienced more tragic battles than this, and Zhao Zhi has also faced enemies that are a hundred times more than the Japanese army. What Zhao Zhi lacks now is only the command ability to face battle, so he needs more thinking time and recording some of his ideas, so that the tactics from the 21st century in his mind can be used in this era.

Returning to Shanghai, it was not a whim of Zhao Zhi, but a matter that he decided after careful consideration, and before leaving Chongqing, Zhao Zhi met the mysterious officer surnamed Jiang again. This time it was arranged by Song Meiling, and after a deep chat, Zhao Zhi found out that this young officer was actually Chiang Kai-shek's second son, who was currently serving in the German army, and he was still in the armored corps. When leaving Chongqing, Zhao Zhi was invited to go to Germany, if it weren't for the implementation of this top-secret plan, Zhao Zhi was afraid that he would have agreed at that time.

The current situation is very favorable to Zhao Zhi, and Zhao Zhi's next plan is almost arranged, all he needs now is time and backup. Before meeting Rowling, Zhao Zhi's biggest purpose was to get a large sum of money to settle in the United States, but after Rowling transfused Zhao Zhi regardless of his own life, Zhao Zhi's mind changed again, for the sake of his beloved woman, Zhao Zhi needed to be stronger, only in this way would Rowling's family marry her to him, and only in this way would he have the strength to protect Rowling.

Zhao Zhi, who was born as a mercenary, only believes in one sentence, the road needs to be walked step by step, Zhao Zhi doesn't know where he will go in the future, he just doesn't want to waste this opportunity in vain. If Zhao Zhi met Hunter just for a comfortable life in the future, then Zhao Zhi agreed to Jiang Wei's trip to Germany, which was gambling, gambling with his own life. Among European and American countries, Zhao Zhi admires Germany the most, two world wars, both ended in defeat, but Germany did not collapse, but re-emerged on the international stage after the end of World War II.

The rigorous and pragmatic character of the Germans is also appreciated by Zhao Zhi, if Zhao Zhi is selected as a companion among many Europeans and Americans, Zhao Zhi will not hesitate to choose the Germans, followed by the Europeans and Americans from other countries. Zhao Zhi is not familiar with the history of World War II, but he knows that Germany is the country that detonated World War II, and Germany's strong industrial strength is what Zhao Zhi needs most at present. If he wants to get a piece of the pie before the end of World War II, Zhao Zhi needs a strong backup, and if he really needs Zhao Zhi to make a choice in European and American countries, he will choose Germany.

"Sir, are you really worried that those Japanese prisoners will do things for us?" The Japanese prisoners in the camp looked honest, but Tang Lei, who was in charge of taking care of them, was extremely uneasy, if it weren't for Zhao Zhi's words to keep these Japanese prisoners, Tang Lei would never mind burying these guys alive. Especially the mercenaries from Changxin Coal Mine in Tang Lei's team, they even carried long knives to those Japanese prisoners when they had nothing to do, and these guys already regarded these prisoners as dead people.

After entering the mountainous area, Zhao Zhi ordered the radio station to be turned off early, and the communication between the front and rear teams basically relied on walkie-talkies, except for the scout teams in the front and the two wings, all the people were gathered together. Zhao Zhi's diversion to Xi'an was very secretive, and even Chiang Kai-shek and Yan'an, who were far away in Chongqing, did not know, and Zhao Zhi and Sun Jin and others escorted by them did not know Zhao Zhi's true purpose, and they thought that Zhao Zhi was going to return to Sichuan.
