Chapter 39 Cavalry Battalion 1
This also made Bai Luo a little depressed.
Meanwhile, inside the headquarters of the Japanese Third Division, the question arose: "Any news about Yamamoto's squad?"
A man who looked to be in his fifties and was dressed in the uniform of a Japanese major general asked the Japanese soldier next to him.
"Reporting to the Division Commander, we have not yet received any information about Yamamoto's squad."
The person who asked the question was Yohji Yamamoto, who was also a major general and division commander of the Japanese Third Division, and the uncle of Takehito Yamamoto, the captain of the Yamamoto Squad.
Yohji Yamamoto felt uneasy; he had never encountered a situation like this before where he was out of contact. Over a year ago, out of support for his nephew, Yohji had helped his nephew, who had returned from studying abroad, assemble a special agent team.
The results did not disappoint Yohji Yamamoto. Over the course of a year, Takehito Yamamoto helped the 3rd Division carry out numerous assassinations and intelligence gathering operations against enemy positions.
The most recent operation was a night raid on the Blue Party command post during the last Ansan position battle, which left the Blue Party troops without command and forced them to retreat.
"Report any news to me as soon as possible. Once you've made contact, instruct Yamamoto Kenji to find that woman from the Bear Country as quickly as possible. Try to capture her alive."
"Hi."
The adjutant beside him responded and immediately went out the door toward the telecommunications section.
Just then, the adjutant, who had not gone far from the door, saw the deputy head of the telecommunications department rushing over.
He immediately went to meet him.
"what's going on?"
The deputy head of the telecommunications department immediately reported, "News from the front lines: dense gunfire has been heard in the Red Party's defense zone in Chiayi City. After reconnaissance, the front-line personnel discovered that it appears to be Yamamoto's squad engaging in combat with Red Party troops. Yamamoto's entire squad has been wiped out."
The adjutant was shocked. "Baka! Are you serious?"
The deputy head of the telecommunications department kept his head down and remained silent.
The adjutant, seeing this, didn't press the matter further and snatched the documents from the deputy head of the telecommunications department to read them.
Then his expression grew even more grim, and he hurriedly grabbed the documents and ran towards the command post.
Yohji Yamamoto looked at his adjutant who had returned, but before he could ask any questions, he heard the adjutant report that the entire Yamamoto squad had been wiped out.
Upon receiving the news, Yohji Yamamoto nearly lost his footing. His adjutant quickly stepped forward to support him, and it took him a while to regain his senses.
"Order: the forward positions must investigate as soon as possible to determine which unit annihilated Yamamoto's squad. Also, verify the exact location of the woman from the Xiong Kingdom that the General Headquarters is looking for. Once found, order the First Regiment to launch an attack and bring her back to me."
"Also, instruct the cavalry battalion to search deep into the area around Chiayi City and bring back any foreign women they find."
"I want to see what kind of woman would make my own nephew die for her."
After issuing a series of orders, the adjutant immediately went out to relay them. After the adjutant left, Yohji Yamamoto sat down behind his desk, thought for a moment, and then called the airport in the suburbs of Haishi, ordering the airport to send out reconnaissance planes to investigate the movements of the Red Party troops in Chiayi City.
Bai Luo and his group were already on a forced march because Tie Niu and his men were moving very fast.
They've walked 20 kilometers since 2:30 PM. It's 7 PM now, and the group hasn't gone into any villages to rest.
Instead, they camped in a valley in the wild, Tie Niu explained that Bellena's appearance was too conspicuous.
Although the cities here have not yet been occupied by the Japanese, most of the strategic locations in the countryside are still under their control.
This made Bai Luo realize once again how important Bellena was to the Red Party.
The soldiers sent to meet them were not only highly elite, but they also had a dedicated radio for communication. It should be noted that many regimental-level units of the Red Army did not even have one or two radios.
The team that came to meet her did indeed have a dedicated radio station. This shows how much they valued Bellena.
Amid this tense atmosphere, Bai Luo and his men had been marching at full speed for three days.
"Report, Division Commander, we have determined that the foreign woman left the Red Army troops hiding in Jiashan three days ago, probably heading west."
There is still no news about the culprit who caused the Yamamoto squad to perish. According to intelligence reports from personnel who were sent to investigate the ravine where the Yamamoto squad was attacked, the perpetrator was not the Red Army troops hiding in Jiashan. Judging from the situation at the scene, it seems that they were attacked by an elite force similar to the Yamamoto squad.
Because the battlefield has been cleared, there are currently no further clues.
"Baka! Go investigate again and find out who did it. Also, order the reconnaissance planes and the cavalry squadron to search westward. Report any intelligence immediately."
"Hi!"
"Little Luo, can I see your little golden pistol again? Just one look."
At this moment, sitting next to Bai Luo was a young woman dressed as a commoner, who looked to be in her early twenties, with two braids and a square box on her back.
It was none other than Xiaoyu, the team's telegraph operator. At this moment, Xiaoyu was blinking her bright eyes frantically, trying to win over Bai Luo.
"No, I won't lend out my gun or my wife," Bai Luo said firmly.
"Then why did you just leave that rifle with Shunzi?"
“That’s different, he won’t misfire.”
Yes, the first time Xiaoyu got Bai Luo's pistol, it went off accidentally, punching a hole in Company Commander Tie Niu's canteen and almost killing him.
Enraged, Tie Niu scolded Xiao Yu, forbidding Bai Luo from lending Xiao Yu any more guns to play with.
Seeing that her attempt to get the gun had failed, Xiaoyu pouted and walked away dejectedly.
Bai Xiumei smiled when she saw it, took out the Glock 18 magazine that Bai Luo had given her from her bosom, removed it, and handed it to Xiaoyu.
"Take it and play with it. This is the same as Carrot's other pistol, just a bit bigger."
Upon seeing it, Xiaoyu immediately took it with a smile. At the same time, she walked over to Bai Luo and compared it, finding that it was indeed similar to the black one that was stuck in Bai Luo's leg.
Meanwhile, Tie Niu, who was sitting to the side, glared at Xiao Yu but didn't say anything more.
They have already traveled more than 100 kilometers in the past three days and nights, and they estimate that they will be able to leave Jiaxing and enter Hangzhou in about another day.
Once we got to Hangzhou, it was much safer. According to Tie Niu, they had already arranged for a boat to take us to Huangshi by water, which would take us to their headquarters.
"Alright, let's pack up and keep going. By this time tomorrow, we should be able to enter Hangzhou. I'll treat you to fish when we get there."
Tie Niu stuffed the last steamed bun into his mouth and said.
Everyone stood up and packed their things, including Bai Luo, who patted his backside, adjusted his equipment, and put on his mask and helmet.
Not long after the group set off, Shunzi, who had been scouting ahead, hurriedly ran back.
"Captain, we've found a lot of hoofprints ahead. Judging from the tracks, it should be a Japanese cavalry unit."
Tie Niu frowned upon hearing this. He looked around; the surroundings were all plains with no cover whatsoever. If they ran into the Japanese cavalry, they could really be said to be helpless and captured.
"Which direction are they heading? In front of us, that is, to the west."
Tie Niu pondered for a moment and said, "You and Anzi scout ahead for 3 kilometers. Report back immediately if there is any situation. We are on a plain here. There is a forest 10 kilometers ahead. We will go there and check the situation."
"Yes."
Upon hearing the order, Shunzi took off running to meet up with Anzi. Anzi was the name of another sniper.
