Spy Shadow: Command & Conquer

Chapter 1966, Osaka Division! Respecting the Emperor and Punishing Traitors!

ponder for a moment.

Zhang Yong came up with a terrible idea.

"Huang Tianlai!"

"To!"

"Go and get a few hundred sets of Japanese military uniforms!"

"Yes!"

Huang Tianlai made arrangements quickly.

There are many Japanese military uniforms near Chuzhou Railway Station.

They even have military police uniforms. Complete sets. From head to toe. The quality is very good. Much better than the Nationalist army uniforms.

Unfortunately, it couldn't be converted into Nationalist army uniforms. It was a complete waste.

"Shaolong, are you planning to impersonate a Japanese soldier and infiltrate Nanjing?"

"No."

"That is……"

"Gaga, rampage!"

"what?"

Commander Qian did not understand.

They thought Zhang Yong was trying to deceive the Japanese invaders and infiltrate Nanjing.

Zhang Yongcai didn't have that ability.

It's too difficult for a few hundred people to impersonate Japanese invaders and fool all the inspections.

The Japanese invaders weren't idiots.

He admitted that he did not have the same abilities as Zhou Weiguo.

Therefore, his goal was simple, yet brutal: to create chaos.

Wearing Japanese uniforms, they specifically targeted and killed puppet troops.

Kill them on sight. Fight them on sight.

The puppet troops will definitely be thrown into chaos. Then they will become terrified.

After a chaotic battle, the Japanese invaders and their puppet troops would inevitably become suspicious and hostile towards each other.

Again.

I, Zhang Yong, am best at causing destruction.

"Commissioner".

"it is good!"

Soon, the military uniforms were brought over.

Zhang Yong made a simple arrangement. Then he changed.

He got himself the rank of captain. Unfortunately, that's all he could ever achieve.

Because uniforms for officers of the rank of colonel and above are prepared separately. They don't eat in communal kitchens. They're not available in the supply depots.

"Shaolong, I want to cross the river too."

"it is good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

Commander Qian is indulging in youthful exuberance!
In case something unexpected happens...

But it's okay.

Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth and honor are in heaven.

During wartime, if you are afraid of dying, don't come to the front lines.

Since you're here, don't overthink it.

"Snapped!"

Commander Qian suddenly slapped his thigh.

His face immediately lit up with excitement. He looked radiant and full of energy.

Zhang Yong: ? ? ?
what's the situation?
What came to mind?

"Shaolong, I finally understand your strategic plan! It's brilliant!"

"what?"

Zhang Yong was completely bewildered.

I?
Strategic deployment?

clever?

How are these words connected?

Wasn't it just a lucky accident?
Isn't it just wandering around everywhere?
“Look, starting from Anqing, you meticulously planned step by step to draw the main force of the Japanese invaders out of Nanjing,” Commander Qian said methodically. “Judging from the battle just now, there shouldn’t be many Japanese troops stationed in Nanjing. Most of them are probably puppet troops.”

"Oh." Zhang Yong remained unmoved.

What does this have to do with strategic deployment? And it's considered clever?

This is the first time someone has praised me for understanding strategy.

"From Anqing to Luzhou, and then to Bengbu, the Japanese invaders all acted obediently according to your plan."

"is it?"

Zhang Yong tilted his head. Is that another way to explain it?
Didn't I send a telegram in plain text demanding a decisive battle with the Japanese invaders? The Japanese, unwilling to lose face, amassed a large force…

It doesn't seem that clever...

"Now, you feint, strike at the heart of the tiger, and head straight for Nanjing."

"Uh……"

"Even if the Japanese invaders knew, they couldn't react now. They probably have no reinforcements around Nanjing."

"Uh……"

Zhang Yong thought hard for a moment.

Ok.

The result seems to confirm this.

Although the entire process was wrong.

There weren't many Japanese invaders near Nanjing, but there were plenty of heavy weapons.

The radar map shows that there are indeed more half-red dots than red dots.

It is estimated that the Japanese invaders themselves did not realize that their strategic mobilization had once again left Nanjing with a depleted military presence.

We should have learned our lesson. However, perhaps we missed something in the process.

The current situation is that there is an opportunity to break in.

"report!"

"It's all changed!"

"set off!"

Zhang Yong waved his hand and led the group forward.

Instead of heading immediately to the riverbank, they headed east.

To the east, a small number of Japanese and puppet troops were still putting up a stubborn resistance. There were approximately a thousand of them.

The composition of these Japanese puppet troops was such that the officers were all Japanese invaders, and the soldiers were all traitors. They were die-hard traitors who had completely abandoned their country.

Despite being besieged by numerous anti-Japanese armed forces, they did not collapse or fall quickly.

Clearly, this group of Japanese and puppet troops was quite strong in combat.

However, as the battle progressed, this group of Japanese and puppet troops finally could not hold out any longer.

They began to retreat in a southeast direction.

There's a dock over there. You can cross the river to evacuate.

Zhang Yong led his troops and intercepted the enemy just in front of them.

They temporarily donned Japanese military uniforms, making them appear quite formidable on the battlefield.

"One of our own!"

"One of our own!"

The puppet soldiers who ran out hurriedly shouted.

All the puppet troops breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that reinforcements had arrived.

result……

"Da da da……"

"Tattoo..."

All kinds of weapons opened fire without hesitation.

Caught off guard, the puppet soldiers fell one after another into pools of blood.

"One of our own..."

"One of our own..."

A Japanese officer shouted in Japanese.

They thought the other party had mistaken them for someone else.

We really are one of us! We are Japanese...

however……

"Da da da……"

"Tattoo..."

They were met with even fiercer firepower.

Those Japanese officers also perished one after another. Many of them had their eyes bulging out; they clearly hadn't figured it out.

They're all on our side. Why are they firing on us?
Baka! Trying to rebel...

"Oops……"

"The Japanese have gone mad..."

"The Japanese have started a massacre..."

The puppet troops behind them realized something was wrong and quickly retreated.

Almost without thinking, they conjured up a plausible reason: the Japanese don't trust them.

Perhaps it was because they lost the battle that it got angry and wanted to kill them all.

This is dangerous. In front are anti-Japanese armed forces. Behind are the Japanese.

We're truly at our wits' end!
Fortunately, the Japanese troops in front suddenly stopped firing.

The main remaining puppet troops have fled far away. I'm too lazy to chase them.

The key point was to send a small number of puppet troops back to report the news, thus making the rest suspicious.

Once other puppet troops fear that the Japanese invaders will open fire on them, they will naturally make various instinctive stress responses.

The puppet troops have a stress response, and the nearby Japanese troops will definitely notice something is wrong. Then they will also have a stress response. Then, there is a possibility that the two sides will accidentally clash.

The general principle is as follows.

However, Zhang Yong was too lazy to speculate on how things would develop.

Anyway, his job was to start the fire.

No matter whether they are killed or buried.

"go!"

He led the team to the riverbank.

They arrived at the dock in a grand procession, ready to board the ship.

What kind of dock is this? I don't know. But, over there is Jinling.

Of course, there were also puppet troops stationed around the dock.

Behind the puppet troops, there was also a small detachment of Japanese invaders.

Upon seeing a large group of Japanese invaders approaching, the puppet troops hurriedly and diligently removed the roadblocks.

result……

"Da da da……"

"Tattoo..."

A hail of bullets rained down on them.

Caught off guard, the puppet troops were stunned and killed on the spot.

"One of our own..."

"One of our own..."

The remaining puppet troops shouted desperately.

But it was no use. Their response was even more intense firepower.

"idiot……"

"what happened?"

As soon as the gun fired, the Japanese squad behind immediately realized something was wrong.

Confused and disoriented, they hurriedly came out, attempting to communicate with their "own people" on the other side.

result……

"Da da da……"

"Tattoo..."

A barrage of firepower was immediately unleashed upon them.

The small Japanese detachment of only a dozen men was almost wiped out in a single encounter.

"idiot……"

"One of our own..."

"You're going to rebel..."

Even on their deathbeds, the Japanese invaders couldn't understand why this had happened.

It's one thing for you to fire on those puppet troops, but why are you firing on us too? We're truly on our side...

"idiot!"

"We are from the Osaka Division!"

"We are ordered to enter Nanjing!"

"Get out of here, all of you!" Zhang Yong shouted at the top of his lungs in Japanese.

The sound echoed across the surrounding area. It was intentional. They were afraid the escaped puppet troops wouldn't hear it.

what?
What is its relationship with the Osaka Division?
Of course, that's nonsense. It has absolutely no connection. It's just something Zhang Yong made up on the spot.

Anyway, it's all about making a shout. When you're out in the world, you define your own identity.

I said we were from the Osaka Division, and that's it. Believe it or not. We've already killed them all anyway.

"Damn it!"

"It's the Osaka Division..."

What do the Japanese want to do?

Many die-hard traitors can actually understand Japanese.

For more than two years, the Japanese invaders occupied Nanjing and forced the local people to learn Japanese. Many of their traitors and key figures learned it.

Realizing something was wrong, they hurriedly scattered.

They either need to hide, or they need to go back and report to their superiors.

"We must uphold the Emperor and punish the traitors!"

"We must purge the court of corrupt officials!"

"We must support His Highness Yongren as the Heavenly Locust!"

Zhang Yong continued shouting in Japanese, completely letting loose. Slogans came to him effortlessly.

Anyway, yelling and shouting isn't illegal. Who cares!

Whether it works or not is irrelevant.

Let's just talk about it for now.

what!
Whether this world is in chaos or not is up to me, Zhang Yong.

I cannot make the world peaceful. But I can make it more chaotic!

what!
"go!"

Keep going.

Commander Qian, following behind: ? ? ?
They had absolutely no idea what Zhang Yong's intentions were.

How did the Osaka Division suddenly appear?
Honoring the emperor and begging for rape...

Purge the court of corrupt officials...

What exactly is it supposed to do?
Zhang Yong, that little rascal, shouted so loudly that he almost thought it was real.

They thought the Osaka Division was really going to rebel in Nanjing!
In ancient times, rebellions often began with similar slogans...

We arrived at the riverbank.

There's a ferry. But there's no one there.

The gunfire earlier had scared away everyone who was on the boat.

it's fine.

Zhang Yong knows how to sail a boat.

His driving skills have always been S-class.

This driving skill includes flying, swimming, and running.

A small ferry is no problem at all.

Perfect, the ferry can hold five hundred people.

They took them all at once.

what?
Attacked?
Will not.

They're the "Japanese invaders" now!

In the chaos, the Japanese invaders and their collaborators on the south bank were unable to distinguish between them.

At the very least, no one will come up to check them until they get ashore.

Once you set foot on the south bank, you'll be safe.

Sure enough, the ferry crossed the river smoothly.

It was not shelled.

Radar maps show that there has been little activity on the south bank as well.

On the opposite dock, there were only a few red dots and more than a hundred half-red dots.

In reality, there were many docks along the Nanjing River, and the Japanese invaders couldn't possibly heavily guard each one. They could only scatter their forces and barely manage to stay afloat.

The ship docked safely.

A Japanese lieutenant stepped forward.

Upon closer inspection, they discovered that Zhang Yong and the others were complete strangers.

I have a vague feeling that something is wrong.

"Halt! Which department are you from?"

"We are from the Osaka Division!"

"What are you doing here?"

"Respect the emperor and ask for rape!"

Zhang Yong waved his hand. A large crowd surged forward.

The Japanese lieutenant was still very vigilant. He immediately drew his gun and tried to stop them.

result……

"Tattoo..."

"Tattoo..."

He was riddled with bullets by a Thompson submachine gun on the spot.

Zhang Yong gave a slight, cold smile.

Dismissively.

He's courting death.

As we've already said, we're here to honor the Emperor and condemn the traitors.

To get through undetected is extremely difficult. But to infiltrate by using the identity of the Osaka Division is much simpler.

Haha!

We are from the Osaka Division!

We support His Highness Yongren. We must uphold the Emperor and punish the traitors!

I'm a real genius!

They found such a suitable excuse so quickly.

As dusk settled and night fell, it was the perfect time to create chaos.

Tonight, under the guise of the Osaka Division, we will breach the entire Nanjing. This will both shock and enrage the Japanese high command.

"Tattoo..."

"Da da da……"

Continue firing. Progress is going smoothly.

The Japanese invaders and their puppet troops knew they were in trouble as soon as they heard about the Osaka Division.

Damn!

The other party was from the Osaka Division.

They want to uphold the emperor and punish the traitors! This is outrageous! Anyone who stands in their way will die!
Such ferocious firepower.

It's irresistible at first glance.

Besides, this is an internal matter for the Japanese, not something for anti-Japanese elements to do, so why should I get involved?
Saving your life is the top priority. Dying would be a pointless death.

then……

The independent battalion successfully landed.

"Shaolong?"

"Hold on."

Zhang Yong examined the radar map and determined the direction of the attack.

The radar map shows that there are indeed not many red dots in the vicinity. Most of them are half-red circles.

Only in the direction near Zijin Mountain were there large Japanese troops stationed.

At the same time, all of the Japanese invaders' heavy weapons were basically deployed around Zijin Mountain, arranged in a perfect circle.

After a moment of analysis, Zhang Yong realized that the Japanese invaders were not actually guarding against anti-Japanese elements.

To be precise, the Japanese were guarding against the Wang Jingwei regime's army.

The stationed troops, along with heavy weapons, were all used to control the puppet troops.

Sure enough, no one trusts a traitor.

The Japanese invaders were the same.

The main task of the Japanese troops stationed in Nanjing was to monitor the Wang Jingwei regime.

As for dealing with anti-Japanese elements, that's the business of the puppet army.

This is easy to handle.

The Osaka Division designation remains effective.

"go!"

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

He led his troops forward in a grand procession.

There's a checkpoint for puppet troops at the street corner ahead. There are over a hundred puppet troops stationed there.

The weapons included mortars and heavy machine guns. They were quite powerful.

However, the puppet troops were confused when they saw the large and imposing "Japanese army" that was coming.

Their intuition told them that there was something wrong with the Japanese troops in front of them.

The main issue was the weaponry. Most of what they used were not standard Japanese military equipment.

There was no Type 38 rifle...

There was no Type 11 light machine gun either...

The Japanese army did not possess any of the weapons commonly seen in military uniforms. They only wore simple uniforms.

However, they dared not fire indiscriminately.

If it really is the Japanese army, then we're doomed.

"Halt! Which unit are you from?" a puppet army officer shouted, forcing himself to step forward.

“We are from the Osaka Division!” Zhang Yong replied in Japanese.

The voice was loud and clear.

The puppet army officers looked at each other, bewildered.

Osaka Division?

what's the situation?
When did they arrive in Nanjing?
"Step aside!"

"Or I'll kill you!"

"We must uphold the Emperor and punish the traitors! We must purge the court of corrupt officials!"

"Get out of the way if you don't want to die!"

Zhang Yong shouted loudly in Japanese. He knew the other person could understand him.

Sure enough, the puppet army officers looked at each other again, frozen in place, unsure of what to do.

Honoring the emperor and begging for adultery?

Purge the court of corrupt officials?
Isn't this tantamount to rebellion?
If the Japanese army were to rebel, would they intervene?

It seems like it's beyond our control...

"Baka! Anyone who doesn't move aside will die!"

Zhang Yong roared in anger.

The next moment, a barrage of bullets swept across the sky.

We've already said we're from the Osaka Division. We're here to rebel. Why aren't you getting out of the way?

"Run!"

"Run!"

The puppet troops, as if waking from a dream, turned and ran.

The moment the gun fired, their intelligence returned to normal. They immediately understood that survival was the top priority.

What does it have to do with the Japanese army rebelling against themselves?
Even a slight delay could mean certain death.

That's indeed the case. Those who ran slowly were all killed.

"Da da da……"

"Tattoo..."

The Thompson submachine gun and the Czech light machine gun were used together.

The Czech-made light machine gun used a 30-round curved magazine. Its firepower was still very fierce.

Compared to the Thompson submachine gun, the Czech light machine gun had a longer range and greater power. It also had a more imposing appearance, making it a significant deterrent to opponents.

Keep going.

The radar map shows many red dots.

Zhang Yong's eyes lit up.

He remembered this place. It was the headquarters of the Japanese Expeditionary Army.

That's right, it's here.

They stormed directly to the headquarters of the Japanese Expeditionary Army.

Those densely packed red dots were the guards of the Japanese Expeditionary Army Headquarters.

The number of people is about one large brigade, around one thousand people.

There were also some military police.

How to do?
Should we just go straight for A?
of course!

Since we are to honor the emperor and punish the traitors, we should just get right to it!
The first step in purging the emperor's inner circle was to massacre the headquarters of the dispatched army.

Dry!
