Spy Wars: Red Agent Codename Phoenix

Chapter 1731 You Learned from a Thief

Mako Aoi took out a newspaper and said with a smile:

"Section Chief! Your child's father is having a great time in Chongqing and doesn't want to leave."

Aoki Renkan took the newspaper and said unhappily:

"Hmph! This playboy has fallen into the arms of a Chinese woman again."

Mako Awei advised, "Section Chief! The Shadow Agency Chief is trying to steal information."

Aoki Renka sneered, "Hmph! He's just using the pretense of stealing intelligence to seduce those Chinese women. I really don't know when he's ever cared about me, the sect leader."

Mako Aoi said with a smile, "You are the legal wife, those women don't count."

Aoki Renka said unhappily, "What kind of legal wife is she? She didn't even tell me where Tojo Aofu is."

At this time, the radio transmission sounded.

Mako Aoi hurriedly copied and translated the telegram, and reported:

"Section Chief! The head of the Shadow Agency sent a telegram saying that Tojo Aofu and his men were betrayed and infiltrated the Military Intelligence Bureau's special agents. They committed suicide before being captured."

Aoki Renkan received the telegram and exclaimed happily, "Yosh! It's good that this villain died. He was betrayed, and the informant must be Doihara Kenji."

Mako Aoi suggested, "Section Chief! Why don't we send this information to Aoyu Tojo?"

Aoki Renka nodded and said, "Also, tell him that the person who leaked the information is Doihara Hamaji."

"Hello!"

Mako bowed and accepted the order.

When Yamashita Touko arrived at the door, she said happily:

"Mako! Your husband, Chiyo, is here."

"Great!"

Mako Awei said excitedly, took two steps towards the door, then turned around and said with an awkward smile:

"Section Chief! Mako requests leave to go home."

"No need to go home!"

Yoshiharu Yamashita's voice rang out.

He and Zheng Zhili each carried a large leather suitcase and walked into the office with their heads held high.

"Hello ma'am!"

Zheng Zhili bowed to Qingmu Lianhua, handed her the suitcase, and said with a smile:

"Madam! This is a gift from our film studio director to you."

"There's another suitcase here."

Yamashita Yoshiharu smiled and hurriedly handed over the suitcase.

Aoki Renga was overjoyed and giggled:

"Yamashita Chuoxiong even knows how to please me."

Mako Awei asked, "Zhili! What's in the suitcase?"

Zheng Zhili smiled and said, "Gold, silver, jewelry, cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings, and so on."

Yoshiharu Yamashita added, "We also have gold mines and jade that we've dug in Southeast Asia, as well as ancient books, US dollars, British pounds, and other valuables that we've purchased."

Fuyuko Yamashita retorted, "Elder brother! Did you buy those dollars and pounds too?"

Yamashita Yoshiharu laughed and said, "Oh! The local natives ran away, and we picked them up."

Aoki Renka sneered, "Hmph! You stole it, didn't you?"

Yamashita Yoshiharu waved his hand and said, "How could I? Madam! The gift has been delivered, I should go home now."

Aoki Renga nodded and instructed, "Dongzi! See your elder brother off."

"Hello!"

Fuyuko Yamashita bowed and accepted the order.

Mako Awei, eager to go home with Zheng Zhili, asked, "Section Chief! Should we call the Film Bureau Chief back?"

Aoki Renka nodded and said, "Yoshi! Praise him for providing timely intelligence on Tojo Aoka, and thank him for letting Yamashita Chire return to Shanghai. Also, tell him not to go to the Hubei front. The Empire is advancing on land, sea, and air. He can just wait in Chongqing for the Imperial army to enter Chongqing."

"Hello!"

Mako bowed and accepted the order.

Aoki Renka waved his hand and said, "You should go home with Chiyo Chire. I, the sect leader, will send this telegram."

"Thank you, Section Chief!"

Mako Awei and Ji-ri Jung expressed their gratitude in unison.

High above the mountain pass, the command post of the Iron-Blooded Special Forces.

The personnel at the command post were all Xiang Chu's confidants, and there was a tunnel leading directly to his residence.

Military operation maps covered one wall, and radio communications rang out incessantly.

Xiang Chu plotted the troop strength of both sides on the battle map, his brow furrowed.

Yu Xiaowan exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Chu! The Japanese army's attack this time is incredibly fast!"

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yokoyama Isamu boasted that he would take Chongqing in three weeks. It seems that he is indeed making a desperate gamble."

Yu Xiaowan said thoughtfully, "Then tell me, when will the Japanese troops be able to reach us?"

Xiang Chu pondered for a while, then held up two fingers and said, "At most 20 days!"

Yu Xiaowan said anxiously, "Only 20 days? Our new recruits haven't even finished training."

Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "It's too late! If you haven't practiced well, you'll have to practice on the battlefield."

At this moment, Qian Fu reported: "Boss! The war zone command has called. The garrison of Yuyang Pass reported that a large number of Japanese spies have been discovered near Yuyang Pass. It would be best to send special agents to annihilate them."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Reporting to the war zone command, I have dispatched special agents who are currently searching for and eliminating Japanese spies."

"Yes!"

Qian Fu hurriedly accepted the order.

Yu Xiaowan said angrily, "Why do we have to go and wipe out the Japanese spies when there are so many garrison troops?"

Xiang Chu smiled wryly and said, "This is the National Revolutionary Army; their division of labor is very clear."

Liu Zhengxiong and Gan Rong rushed into the command post.

Liu Zhengxiong complained, "Advisor Chu! The student soldiers that Minister Chen gave us are good, full of enthusiasm for killing Japanese devils, but they can't be trained in a short time."

Gan Rong added, "The new recruits' bayonet skills, shooting skills, psychological qualities, as well as their endurance, ability to endure hardship, and courage, are all insufficient to meet the requirements for going to the battlefield."

Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "Old Gan! It all boils down to one sentence! New recruits going to the battlefield are just throwing their lives away."

Gan Rong said with a wry smile, "That's how it is!"

Xiang Chu thought for a moment, then pointed to the map and said, "The new recruits don't go to the battlefield, but they can guard these caves at the gorge. These caves will form a crossfire, which will definitely make it difficult for the Japanese to advance."

Liu Zhengxiong said anxiously, "This is the last line of defense. You're handing it over to a new recruit?"

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! I'll lead the veterans to kill the Japanese outside the cave, and you'll lead the new recruits to kill the Japanese inside the cave."

Liu Zhengxiong shook his head and said, "No! I want to fight the Japanese devils with you outside the cave. Let Xiaowan lead the new recruits instead."

Yu Xiaowan said urgently, "No way! I finally managed to go to the battlefield with Brother Chu to kill the Japanese devils."

At this moment, Ma Fugui reported: "Boss! Xiao Qi called and said that the 108-man reconnaissance team led by Takahashi Kosei has gone out to harass our troops. They will all arrive at Nanpo Village, southwest of Yuyang Pass, for a meeting tonight."

Xiang Chu was overjoyed and laughed, "Great! Eliminating these 108 Japanese spies is like gouging out the eyes of the Japanese troops. Fu Gui! Call Xiao Liu and tell him to rush to Nanpo Village and keep a close eye on Doihara Hamako's reconnaissance team."

"Yes!"

Ma Fugui hurriedly accepted the order.

Liu Zhengxiong volunteered: "Advisor Chu! Ye Ying and I are familiar with the Yuyangguan area. We'll lead our men there tonight and wipe out the Japanese reconnaissance team."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Alright! Take the new recruits with good physical fitness and say it's a field training exercise."

"Yes!"

Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly accepted the order.

Yu Xiaowan asked with a smile, "Brother Chu! Gao Qiao Xiaozheng has led the reconnaissance team to Yuyang Pass. Where is Tuiyuan Xian'er?"

Xiang Chu said thoughtfully, "Doihara Hamako is a coward who is afraid of death. I guess he's in Yichang, on a steamship on the Yangtze River."

Yichang, on a Yangtze River steamship.

Doihara Hamaji felt it was dangerous to go ashore and head west, so he returned to the ship.

At this moment, he was sitting upright in the cabin, seriously weaving straw sandals.

Ushijima Sekiko shook his head and said, "General! Where did you learn all these hobbies?"

Without hesitation, Doihara Hamako exclaimed, "Liu Bei, the big-eared thief!"

"I understand! You learned it from thieves."

Sekiko Ushijima nodded, paused, and then smiled wryly.

"You made Yamada Motoo and Sakai Taro wait for you, and the result was that you brought them back and re-established them on the banks of the Yangtze River."

Doihara Hamako rolled his eyes at her and sneered, "What do you know? How could I, a general, help Akashikazaki fight a war?"

At this moment, the radio operator rushed into the cabin and reported: "Your Excellency! Intelligence Officer Tojo orders you to take Miss Ushijima Sekiko back to Yichang City immediately."

Doihara Hama asked in confusion, "Has Tojo Aofu returned to Yichang?"
