Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

Just as the two were discussing how to pin the blame on the Chinese, there was a knock on the door.

"Commander-in-Chief, here are today's newspapers."

An agent from the Special Higher Police placed the newspaper on Nishida Zosaku's desk.

Nishida Zaozuo gnashed his teeth as he read the contents of the newspaper: "Baka! These arrogant Germans! They are just a bunch of idiots!"

The front page of the newspaper featured two photos, one of which was a disguised photo of Ke transforming into a German, and the other was a self-introduction letter written in German.

The content of the text is a translation of the contents of the autobiographical letter, which stated his motives, how the Jews betrayed Germany in World War I, making them spend 50 marks to buy bread, and also said that any country that helps the Jews will become an enemy of Germany.

"Commander Nishida, in addition to this newspaper, we also received a message from the German ambassador in the Magic City. He told us not to harm the German in the photo, otherwise they will consider whether to have further cooperation with our country."

"asshole!"

Nishida Zaozuo was furious, but he could only hold it in. There were many voices in Japan that wanted to get closer to Germany, and he couldn't go against the will of the headquarters.

......

"Xiao Shen, take a look at this. The headquarters asked us what we think about the Jewish deaths. Should we express our views?"

Shen Yan took the telegram from the brigade commander, read it and said with a smile: "Simple, strongly condemn and protest against Germany. Germany doesn't support us anyway."

"But these Jews are serving the devils. If we condemn them, will it be..."

"Commander, that's why we have to make our attitude clear. No matter how fierce the war is, civilians should not be attacked. At the same time, we must also condemn the devils. The blood debts they have committed are no different from those of the German Nazis."

Lu Ren blinked as he looked at Shen Yan's righteous expression, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

"You have a point. The war is their excuse to massacre civilians. Let's reply to the headquarters. Let our comrades from the international organization speak for us."

The brigade commander thought about the wording and wrote a reply to the headquarters. After the two read it and made sure there were no omissions, they handed it to the radio operator for a reply.

"Brigade Commander, I will be away for a while to go to Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi to discuss matters concerning the Anti-Japanese Alliance."

"There won't be any danger, right?"

Shen Yan smiled and shook his head: "No, I will try to go and come back as soon as possible. I think the upcoming Hattori Naoomi must be very important to Shinozuka Yoshio, otherwise he would not have stayed quiet for so long. Brigade Commander, you can arrange for the troops to test the surrounding devils."

The brigade commander nodded and agreed: "Okay, our 386th Brigade has been expanding rapidly recently, and it's time to train the troops."

"Then I'll go pack my bags and leave in the next few days."

"Be sure to pay attention to safety."

After coming out of the brigade headquarters, Lu Ren kept looking at Shen Yan with strange eyes.

“Just say what you have to say.”

Lu Ren looked around and asked quietly, "Did you and You Ke make those three trains?"

"No"

Lu Ren curled his lips and said, "There must be something fishy going on. You Ke disappeared for several days some time ago. After he came back, he became very quiet. He wouldn't say anything when asked what happened."

Shen Yan sighed: "Don't ask, just remember that this matter has nothing to do with our Eighth Route Army."

Seeing that he had no intention to say anything, Lu Ren did not ask any more questions. However, he was sure that You Ke's abnormal behavior was definitely related to this matter.

As soon as Shen Yan returned to Zhiju’s base, he contacted Mu Yun and asked him to contact Ishikawa in Japan, send Inoue Yoshito’s wife and daughter to China, and invite him to come to China again to discuss important matters.

He also asked Mu Yun to come to the brigade headquarters immediately after handling the matter and go to Longhu Mountain together.

Afterwards, Shen Yan found Zhou Weiguo and You Ke to make arrangements before departure.

"Captain, are you looking for me?"

"Sit down. How is the training going in the troops? Are there any difficulties?"

After entering southeastern Shanxi, Shen Yan recalled the torch-bearing team members who were originally scattered in various regiments and carried out the second batch of training.

"No, we have already entered the actual combat stage. Deputy Captain You and I are currently researching where to find some Japanese to practice with."

Shen Yan nodded: "That's perfect. The brigade commander will also have to make some moves recently. You and You Ke will lead the troops to fully cooperate with him. I will go to Longhu Mountain in two days, and the army affairs will be handed over to you two."

"Yes, Captain"

Two days later, Shen Yan, along with Lu Ren, Mu Yun and a dozen others, set out for Longhu Mountain.

Longhu Mountain in early autumn is like a quiet and mysterious painting. The air in the mountains is fresh and pleasant, with a hint of coolness, making people feel comfortable and relaxed.

The mountains in the distance are rolling and dark green. The mountain stream flows happily among the rocks, making a clear and pleasant gurgling sound. By the stream, wild flowers are flourishing, warm and bright, emitting bursts of fragrance.

Shen Yan lingered in the beautiful scenery, and his recent depressed mood relaxed.

"Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Huaiyi from Tianshi Mansion meet Master Shen Shan"

The second Zhang from the Tianshi Mansion learned that Shen Yan was going up the mountain, and waited for him on the mountainside on behalf of Tianshi Zhang Jingqing.

This was the first time Shen Yan met Yirenhe. He finally understood what Mi Er meant when he said that Zhang Zhiwei was beyond strong.

Brother Bao Ying’s life cultivation is ridiculously strong. At first glance, it seems as if he is in the abyss of the deep sea.

If you do not cultivate Qi, you will see him as a frog in a well looking up at the bright moon.

If you cultivate Qi, you will see him as a mayfly seeing the blue sky.

Brother Bao Ying was also looking at Shen Yan, and was also shocked by his cultivation. Even without fighting, he could feel the perfect circulation of the five qi in his body.

This was the first time in Zhang Zhiwei's life that he met someone among his peers who he was not sure of winning, but he also understood that the other party's identity was special and he was not someone he could easily ask for advice from.

"Brother Zhiwei, Brother Huaiyi, please come and welcome us."

"You are too polite, Master. Please..."

Led by brother Bao Ying and brother Bai Jie, Shen Yan and his companions went up to the mountain gate of the Tianshi Mansion. Tianshi Zhang Jingqing and the remaining disciples were waiting at the mountain gate.

Now Shen Yan’s identity is different from before. He has inherited the Taoist tradition of Shangqing Maoshan. Even Taoist leaders like Tianshi and Zuo Menzhang have to receive him according to etiquette.

"Shen Yan of Maoshan pays homage to the Heavenly Master"

"Juniors Lü Ren, Xiaozhan Muyun, and Sanyi Wu Chengzhen...pay homage to the Heavenly Master."

Zhang Jingqing supported himself with his hands: "The mountain master is here early. It's still a few days before the ninth day of the ninth lunar month."

Shen Yan smiled slightly: "It was me who troubled the Heavenly Master to hold the Anti-Japanese Alliance Conference. I can't let you do all the hard work. I came a few days earlier to help out."

"Haha, let's talk inside. Zhiwei, Huaiyi, the two of you take good care of the guests."

"Disciples obey orders"

Shen Yan brought Lu Ren and Mu Yun and followed the Taoist priest into the guest hall. Two disciples served them tea and then left.

"Master Shen, how are Jinzhong and the others adapting to the new situation in the army?"

"Master, don't worry. Senior Brother Jinzhong and the others are doing well. We recovered Changye County a few days ago, and all the brothers and sisters in the Master's Mansion have made great contributions."

Upon learning that his disciples were all safe and sound and had made contributions, the Heavenly Master had a look of relief on his face. The situation at the Heavenly Master's Mansion was similar to that at Maoshan. These disciples were all brought up by the Heavenly Master since childhood. They were called master and disciple, but the relationship between them was like that between father and son.

"Master, I arrived a few days early and actually have a favor to ask of you."

"You said, we are both from the same sect of Zhengyi, so there is nothing we cannot ask for. If you need anything from Tianshi Mansion, just ask."

"I would like to ask for a method of prohibition."

Shen Yan truthfully told the Heavenly Master about his idea of ​​establishing a special forces team of aliens.

After listening to this, the Heavenly Master took a deep breath and said, "Hiss~ Your idea is quite strange."
