Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 3039 A Challenge to the Chinese Madman!
Soon, Kujo Miyamoto received a reply from his father from the mainland.

He eagerly unfolded the telegram, his eyes quickly scanning the words, and his expression gradually became confident.

With his father watching over Kitashirakawa and Minami in the mainland to buy him time, what did he have to fear?
If he follows the plan and kills Dango, he can not only resolve the current crisis, but also greatly enhance the reputation of the Kujo family.

Just then, one of Uchida's agents came to report that Shadow was not dead, but was seriously injured and still unconscious.

A hint of excitement flashed in Kujo Miyamoto's eyes. He felt that even the heavens were on his side. The fact that the shadow was still alive meant that the bait to lure Danwu was still there.

He immediately sent for two traitors from Songyuan County, handed them a letter of challenge, and ordered:

"You two must immediately deliver this challenge letter to the Anti-Japanese Brigade's headquarters, and make sure to hand it to Duanwu personally. Tell them that Mr. Onizuka Yumei of our Great Japanese Empire is issuing a challenge to him."

If he dares not fight, and he doesn't come alone, then we'll kill a Chinese resistance fighter named Shadow. I think Duanwu would be very happy to come after hearing this news, hahaha!

Kujou Kita's smile was chilling, sending shivers down the spines of the two traitors.

They quickly imitated the Japanese soldiers, bowing and saying, "Yes, sir! We'll go right away and definitely complete the mission!"

After saying that, the two of them left the county government dejectedly, muttering complaints under their breath.

One of the tall, thin traitors frowned and said with a bitter expression, "This job is really not for humans. Everyone knows that going to deliver a challenge letter to the anti-Japanese brigade is a matter of life and death! We are traitors, and the anti-Japanese brigade is targeting us. If we go, it's hard to say whether we can come back alive."

Another short, stout traitor sighed and wiped the sweat from his brow, saying, "Who says otherwise? Why don't the Japanese go and deliver them themselves? They know it's dangerous, so they're using us as cannon fodder. But we have no choice. If we don't listen to them, we'll be dragged out and shot right now. We have no choice but to bite the bullet and go."

As they talked, the two slowly made their way toward the motorcycles that the Japanese had prepared.

This motorcycle might normally seem like a rare find, but at this moment, it was like a death warrant leading to the gates of hell in their eyes.

The tall, thin traitor reluctantly climbed onto the motorcycle, while the short, fat traitor sat on the back, his hands tightly gripping the tall, thin man's waist, his body trembling slightly involuntarily.

Because he knew perfectly well that if the anti-Japanese brigade really wanted to kill them, would the Japanese soldiers avenge them? That would be a joke.

With a sputtering sound, the motorcycle slowly started and headed towards the west gate.

···········
Meanwhile, as Kujo Miyamoto watched them leave, a smug smile crept onto his lips.

Onizuka Yūmei, standing to the side, with his arms crossed, exuded a strong sense of confidence.

When it comes to commanding battles, Onizuka Yumei wasn't entirely confident of defeating Duanwu, a man hailed as a Chinese madman.

But when it comes to fighting in the arena, Onizuka Youming has never been convinced by anyone.

Because he was a man who had defeated the King of the Forest, he had absolute confidence in defeating Duanwu.

Moreover, he had learned about Duanwu a long time ago, and Duanwu's swordsmanship was outstanding, probably comparable to some sword masters.

However, these sword masters all have a fatal weakness: their combat power is greatly reduced after they leave their swords.

So, in order to defeat Dango, Onizuka Yūmei, along with Kujō Miyamoto and Maruyama, devised a plan: this time, they would have a hand-to-hand combat contest. This was also Onizuka Yūmei's forte.

This time, they not only want to defeat Duanwu, but also to defeat him legitimately and in full view of everyone.

·······
Meanwhile, at the Japanese military hospital, Li Ru, under the pretext of monitoring Shadow, found an office next to the intensive care unit and started working there temporarily. However, two Japanese spies kept harassing him, mocking and ridiculing him.

"Oh, Dr. Li, still busy? You're very dedicated to your work. But I heard you're Chinese, why are you serving the Imperial Army?"

Li Ru looked up at the Japanese soldiers, then continued with his work, because they had already asked the same question three times.

Seeing that Li Ru remained silent, another Japanese soldier said, "I think he's a traitor, a born spineless coward. He's only fit to carry the shoes of our Great Japanese Imperial Army!"

This Japanese soldier was deliberately trying to provoke Li Ru.

Li Ru looked up at the two Japanese soldiers and asked, "Are you guys very free? If you want to check my records, the hospital's archives have them."

The two Japanese soldiers had nothing to say, because there was indeed information about Li Ru in the archives.

Li Ru studied medicine in Japan in his early years. After returning to China, his mentor introduced him to a Japanese military hospital.

However, this didn't happen in Songyuan at the time. But there are records to prove it. And during her employment, she had no misconduct whatsoever.

So the two Japanese soldiers had no choice.

Seeing that Li Ru ignored them, the two Japanese spies got bored and left the office grumbling.

Li Ru watched their departing figures, a slight, almost imperceptible sneer appearing on his lips.

He thought to himself: You two little minions think you can find out my secrets? You're just overestimating yourselves.

Now, all he needs to do is wait patiently until nightfall, when the Japanese soldiers monitoring him get sleepy, and then he can wake up the shadow.

Of course, he didn't know the shadow's real name, nor could he confirm the other party's identity.

Otherwise, he would have already found an opportunity to send a telegram to Ma Ping'an.

Time passed by, and soon it was evening.

As Li Ru left his duty room, he saw two Japanese spies slumped on a bench in the corridor outside the monitoring room, like two clay sculptures.

Their heads were tilted to one side, their mouths slightly open, emitting soft snores, and the guns in their hands were casually placed on their laps, occasionally slipping off as their bodies swayed, only to be grabbed back by them in their drowsy state.

Li Ru knew that this was a subconscious action performed by the Japanese soldiers after training. If they weren't interrupted, they would continue doing this indefinitely.

So Li Ru ignored the two Japanese soldiers and instead looked into the monitoring room through the small glass window on the door of the monitoring room.

At this moment, the nurse on duty in the intensive care unit, just like the Japanese soldiers, was also lying by the patient's bedside, her head nodding off.

Li Ru knew his chance had come. He gently pushed open the door to the intensive care unit, walked behind the nurse, and then gently patted her on the shoulder.

The nurse was startled awake, and she jerked her head up, her eyes filled with panic.

But when she saw it was Li Ru, she calmed down a little, quickly stood up, her face flushed, and stammered an apology: "I'm sorry, Dr. Li. I accidentally fell asleep!"
