Shanghai

At this time, it entered a state of combat readiness, and both the land and sea defense lines formed a highly tense state of alert.

They were frightened by Li Yunlong's iron-blooded brigade and did not want to become a second Nanjing.

On the other hand, the Iron and Blood Brigade is marching all the way like a bamboo, and almost no opponents have been encountered.

The strength of the Iron-Blooded Brigade's eastward expedition to Shanghai reached more than 50,000 troops, coupled with the escort of aircraft and tanks, even if it encountered resistance, it could not stop the pace of the Iron-Blooded Brigade at all.

Wuxi City, known as Xinwu, Liangxi and Jinkui in ancient times, is located in the Yangtze River Delta Plain, the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River, and the Taihu Lake Basin. It is bordered by the Yangtze River in the north, Taihu Lake in the south, Suzhou in the east, Changzhou in the west, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal

Because Wuxi is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and most of the terrain is a plain area, it has been the land of fish and rice since ancient times.

At this time, the large force of the Iron and Blood Brigade had already arrived outside the city of Wuxi.

Li Yunlong, Zhou Weiguo, Zhentian Lei and others all used telescopes to observe the situation in Wuxi City, and everyone found that this Wuxi City was very abnormal.

The gate of Wuxi City is closed, the city tower is empty, there is no one to defend, only a dog skin plaster flag is constantly fluttering in the wind, it looks very empty!

"What's going on?" Zhou Weiguo was a little uncertain: "Why is there no one in Wuxi who is a little devil?" ”

Shaking Thunder looked at such a situation and said slowly: "Could it be that the little devils in this city have already evacuated?" Or is there a layout in the city waiting for us to enter? ”

Li Yunlong used the telescope to observe the battle situation in Wuxi City, and his brows furrowed slightly: "This Wuxi City is the land of fish and rice, and it can be said that it is the most serious place for the little devils to plunder, but now there is no defender in the city, which is very unusual!"

"There is no defender in an important city like Wuxi, like we have conveyed two signals, the first is that the Japanese army really has no soldiers available, and has to give up a county like Wuxi and stick to Shanghai!"

Wuxi is only a little more than 100 kilometers away from Shanghai, and it is a big city near Shanghai, and if you want to hold Shanghai, you must shrink the strength of the nearby counties.

"Another signal is that the little devils are playing tricks on me, letting our troops march all the way into their trap in Wuxi! That is, the Japanese army wants to stop us through this road! ”

Zhou Weiguo, Zhentianlei, Li Xiangyang and others all nodded in agreement.

"Whether it's a trap or not, just look at it!" Li Yunlong ordered loudly: "Immediately let Yu Fei lead the flight formation to conduct a low-altitude reconnaissance of the situation in Wuxi City!" ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, Yu Fei's fighter jet quickly took off at the nearby Pingyuan Airport and began to fly quickly towards Wuxi City!

"Buzz...... Whew......huhu"

The entire air force flight formation of 10 planes flew up the tower of Wuxi City, and Yu Fei and other pilots carefully observed the situation in Wuxi City through their eyes.

In addition, I feel weird, this Wuxi City is not only the city tower without any Japanese puppet army, the entire Wuxi City is empty, condescending to look at it, all you see is an empty street, all the houses are closed doors, very strange.

After patrolling around Wuxi City, Yu Fei immediately reported the situation he had obtained to Li Yunlong.

This situation makes everyone even more confused!

"What do the little devils want to do?"

"Yes, even if there are no Japanese puppet troops in the city, there should be ordinary people in the city, how can it become empty!"

"Could it be that the little devil killed all the people before retreating?"

"It's a strange phenomenon!"

Zhentian Lei, Xiao Yan and others all felt strange, and they were secretly guessing the purpose of the Japanese puppet army in Wuxi City!

"Empty City Plan!"

At this time, three words suddenly popped out of Li Yunlong's mouth.

Empty city plan?

Zhou Weiguo, Zhentian Lei, and others all looked at Li Yunlong.

"Commander, you say this is the little devil's empty city plan?"

"Empty city? The little devil still gave us this hand? ”

"If you think about it, it's possible! Deliberately scare us. ”

The empty city plan is one of the 36 plans, and the plan to show the hypocrisy of doubtful soldiers is a kind of psychological warfare in which doubts arise from doubts, and is mostly used in situations where oneself is weak and the enemy is strong, and to put it bluntly, it is a kind of psychological warfare

The most famous empty city plan is Zhuge Liang's empty city plan, when Wei sent Sima Yi to attack the Shu State Street Pavilion, Zhuge Liang sent Ma Tan to garrison failed. Sima Yi led his troops to take advantage of the victory and approached Xicheng, Zhuge Liang had no soldiers to meet the enemy, but he was calm and calm, opened the city gate, and played the piano and sang music on the city tower. Sima Yi suspected an ambush and led his troops to retreat.

“．． If you want to play empty city with me, it's really too mentally retarded!

"Order the troops, enter the city immediately!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, the troops of the Iron and Blood Brigade entered the city one after another, and sure enough, not a single Japanese puppet army was found in the city, and it was obvious that all of them had retreated.

As for the people in the city, they were all locked in large venues such as barracks and arsenals, so it seemed that the whole of Wuxi was empty.

Before leaving, the little devils wanted to set up an empty city plan to scare Li Yunlong, but it was still too tender!

After capturing Wuxi, Li Yunlong led a large army to continue to advance eastward, passing the pass and conquering the city along the way, and the speed was very fast!

After half a month of rapid marching and fighting, Li Yunlong led the Eastern Expeditionary Force of the Iron and Blood Brigade to the outskirts of Shanghai and approached Shanghai!
