Protagonist:

Lv Muzhi

Lv Muzhi looked at the cipher, and his entire expression changed drastically.

Qiu Qingquan beside him saw it, thinking Chu Yunfei had met with an accident, and asked: "Lu Commander, what's going on?"

Lv Muzhi handed the cipher to Qiu Qingquan, saying: "See for yourself, I'm truly speechless, these game Chu Yunfei caught really give me a headache!"

Qiu Qingquan looked at the cipher, his sturdy frame trembled, then he looked at it a second time in disbelief.

"This... is this a spelling mistake? Is this Heinz the Heinz General I met when I studied at Berlin Army University? How did he capture my teacher?!"

Lv Muzhi nodded affirmatively; among the prisoners was William, who had handled the equipment and training when the German-equipped Division was organized back then.

Chu Yunfei also knew William; regarding the information on the captured General Heinz, it must have been verified through multiple parties.

Lv Muzhi thought it over again and again.

The relationship between Xia Guo and Hans State had not completely broken down, and there were no conflicts of interest between the two countries.

Although Hans and the Japanese Army kept drawing closer, the two countries had not yet formed an alliance.

That is to say, Hans was not yet an enemy of Xia Guo at this time.

Moreover, Heinz still had his own legend to write.

Whether Heinz lived or died, Hans State's national strategy would not change.

Lv Muzhi only knew that if Heinz returned safely to his country, many military loans he carried would directly vanish into thin air.

Because General Heinz would directly settle his creditors.

If Heinz was detained or died in Xia Guo, Lv Muzhi could hardly imagine how the future situation would change.

Anyway, the Japanese Army would ultimately not change its aggression, and Hans would probably increase its aid to the Japanese Army because of Heinz's death.

In this regard, Lv Muzhi was unprepared.

After much thought, Lv Muzhi summoned several generals who had once studied in Hans State, decided to take an aircraft across the Yellow River, and go meet this legendary commander.

At the same time, he sent a cipher to the old man, asking him to use diplomatic channels to discuss a solution.

Meanwhile, on the opposite bank of the Yellow River, Chu Yunfei, after a fierce battle, once again crushed the 21st Division.

Chu Yunfei was able to bring over a dozen members of Hans State's Military Observation Group into Jiaozuo City.

Tanks and supply vehicles drove into the old drill ground once used by the Qing Dynasty to train troops, Chu Yunfei also got off the vehicle here, and by the way unloaded the special prisoner from the vehicle.

This battle not only successfully secured Jiaozuo's coal resources, but also captured over a thousand Japanese prisoners.

It could be said the harvest was abundant.

However, these dozen or so Hans State prisoners in his hands became a hot potato for Chu Yunfei.

Out of respect for his old friend William, Chu Yunfei disarmed them all but did not tie them up; their treatment was more like house arrest.

The old chap William, upon seeing Chu Yunfei, still greeted him warmly.

"Chu Yunfei! It's only been this long since we last met, and you already have such a formidable force under your command! I'm truly happy for you."

Chu Yunfei patted William's shoulder and joked: "Isn't this Old William?"

"Back then you were a distinguished guest of Lu Commander, so how did you become my prisoner?"

William said helplessly: "You know, Chu, I'm just a soldier, obeying the state's will, leading the Military Observation Group to station in the North China Area Army, merely one of the tens of thousands of orders I've executed in my life."

"Although it's unfortunate that I was captured by you, the friendship of many years between us should still remain, right?"

"That pair of Browning Handguns Lu Commander gave you, I helped purchase them back then."

Chu Yunfei immediately took out his own pair of Browning Pistols, weighed them in his hand: "Old William, you should be fortunate to have run into me."

"I, Chu Yunfei, still value old friendships; otherwise, you'd all be trussed up tight right now."

Chu Yunfei and William chatted for a good while at a drill ground.

The other Hans men sat obediently on the ground, leaning against the tank tracks, silent.

Only General Heinz circled around a Type 3 Tank, pacing back and forth, touching the gun barrel, then bending down to look at the front tank observation port.

The tank driver inside the vehicle, if he hadn't known this man was no ordinary person, would have gotten down and driven Heinz away.

Seeing a Medium Anti-Aircraft Vehicle in the distance, Heinz ran straight over to it.

The guards beside him were startled and all raised their gun muzzles.

Chu Yunfei stopped him in time, asking William: "This Hans general seems very interested in tanks? I've never studied in Hans State, but from Lu Commander and others' descriptions, General Heinz doesn't seem like such an alarmist person."

William said: "General Heinz bears heavier responsibilities than us; under such pressure, nothing he does is strange."

Heinz kept circling around the Type 3 Anti-Aircraft Vehicle modified from a Type 3 Tank; the four 20mm gun barrels on it made Heinz unable to take his eyes off.

"This kind of weapon has already seen actual combat in the Youth Army; presumably the effect is not bad! What about the Type 3 Assault Gun?"

"Hey! General Chu Yunfei, please let me see your Type 3 Assault Gun!"

Heinz rudely shouted at Chu Yunfei and William who were talking.

The translator faithfully translated Heinz's words.

Chu Yunfei pointed at Heinz and asked: "Old William, shouldn't he be my prisoner? Why do I feel he isn't?"

William rubbed his hands, also somewhat embarrassed: "At least he said the word 'please'."

The next day.

At the airfield outside Jiaozuo City, a transport aircraft painted with the Youth Army insignia landed smoothly.

The cabin door opened, Lv Muzhi walked down the stairs first, followed by Qiu Qingquan and Zhou Weiguo.

The few men went directly to see the Hans Military Advisor Group under house arrest inside the drill ground.

Entering the drill ground where the tanks were parked, Lv Muzhi's gaze swept past Chu Yunfei toward the group of Hans people not far away, sitting by the tank tracks resting.

Heinz seemed to sense something, stood up, and turned around just in time to see Lv Muzhi.

It was that man!

Over several days and nights in 1930, I had long talks through the night with that young Xia Guo Major General!

Now, Lv Muzhi was putting everything they had talked about into practice one by one!

And Heinz's practice had not yet officially begun.

Heinz stepped forward and extended his hand: "Lv, finally seeing you again."

Lv Muzhi stepped forward and voluntarily extended his hand: "General Heinz, welcome to my military, although my way of welcoming is somewhat special..."

Qiu Qingquan also stepped forward and respectfully performed a German-style military salute: "General Heinz! Since our parting at Berlin Army War College, Your Excellency's bearing remains as before."

Zhou Weiguo likewise bowed slightly to express respect to this general.

Everyone then entered the 110 Division headquarters to sit and talk; here was now Chu Yunfei's headquarters.

Sitting on the chair in the reception room, Heinz felt countless emotions in his heart.

Remembering the battles he had not yet put into practice, he asked Lv Muzhi: "Lv, do you think I can succeed?"
