Tadao Yoshizawa was furious; he hadn't expected that his troops would end up empty-handed.
Looking at the quiet surroundings, Yoshizawa Tadao's face was contorted with rage.
"Baka yarou!"
"Find it for me!!!"
"Dig three feet into the ground!!"
"Haaiya!!!"
...
After searching for half an hour, Tadao Yoshizawa found nothing.
Looking at the empty Wu'an Township, Yoshizawa Tadao gritted his teeth and cursed, "Bastard!!"
Hidehiko Yamashita stood cautiously to the side, head down and silent.
Only Yoshio Ishikawa's face showed doubt. "General Yoshizawa, could... could this be a trap?!"
Upon hearing Ishikawa Yoshio's guess, Yoshizawa Tadao sneered, "Heh, Ishikawa-kun, don't be alarmist!"
"The Chinese army must have been scared out of their wits by us; they wouldn't dare to fight us!"
"You're the brigade's chief of staff? Even you're afraid? How shameful!!!"
Hidehiko Yamashita quickly flattered, "General Yoshizawa is right. The Chinese army must have been terrified of us and fled without a fight!"
Listening to the words of the two idiots, Yoshio Ishikawa showed a look of disdain. What a disgrace! A brigade commander, indeed!
"Ishikawa-kun, I'm ordering you and the 17th Regiment to search outside the village. I refuse to believe that such a large village could simply vanish into thin air!"
"Hai!!"
Yoshio Ishikawa and Hidehiko Yamashita responded.

Yoshizawa Tadao, along with his Japanese soldiers, continued their careful search of the village.

Lin Feng's mouth practically split into a grin. "Haha, I didn't expect him to be a major general. This is a big fish."
"Commander! We've struck it rich this time!"
Zhang Xiaowu was so excited that his face was flushed.
"Xiao Wu, go tell Zhao Laogen not to hold back on ammunition. Bring up all the artillery and fire!"
"At worst, we'll rebuild Wu'an Township! We'll give the villagers large yellow croakers and build traditional courtyard houses!"
"Alright, Commander, I'll go right now!!"
Zhang Xiaowu darted out in a flash.
Lin Feng looked at Yoshizawa Tadao and the others through his binoculars, a cold smile curving his lips: "Dare to attack Wu'an Township? I'll see how you leave alive!"
