Chapter 228: The Existence of Changing the Tide of War

If it is said that a series of explosions occurred in Dongjing, the Chinese people in Nanyang did not know about it. Then the explosion that occurred in the Governor's Mansion in Xinjiapo, many people living in this city saw it clearly.

As early as the time of the massacre, many Chinese people heard that the Xinghua Company in the Philippines would retaliate against the little devils. But many Chinese people think it is unlikely, after all, the Japanese army that invaded and occupied Xinjiapo was very strong.

Even the British troops stationed in Xinjiapo earlier with warships and planes were no opponent, and how could a group of Chinese armed forces far away in the Philippines beat the little devils? Many Chinese feel that their lives will be dark again.

finally took the risk of drifting across the ocean and ran to the South Seas to survive. The days were just better, and the little devils who were ravaging the mainland swept in again. This makes many Chinese feel that there seems to be no place for them in this world.

But what happened in the Governor's Palace today has shocked many Chinese. It turned out that the people of Xinghua Company really dared to take revenge on the little devils. Even the place where the hands are done is the Governor's Palace, which is heavily guarded by the little devils.

Looking at the little devils who were like headless flies scurrying around the city, many people were also curious about how those people in the Xinghua Army did it. After all, it's impossible for ordinary people to get close to those places!

Such doubts also exist among the Japanese commanders who are responsible for investigating the case. The fact that the Governor's Palace, which was protected by such heavy troops, would be attacked by someone really puzzled the Japanese garrison generals.

However, what worries the Japanese generals investigating the incident is that according to the circumstances described by Xing Cun, the two attackers who caused the bombing should have been Japanese people. It's just that he is a Japanese bowl who hates the emperor and the government.

After some probing, the Japanese military police soon found out what had happened in the kitchen. Even when they entered the kitchen to investigate, several Japanese soldiers who pushed open the warehouse where the supplies were stored were attacked by the tripping bombs placed in the warehouse.

By the time the gendarmes arrived, the entire warehouse had been burned by the explosion. The materials stored inside, as well as the bodies of the kitchen personnel who had been obliterated, were also burned beyond recognition, making it difficult to identify.

After a day of investigation and interrogation, it was finally confirmed that the two attackers were both employees of a Japanese restaurant in Xinjiapo. By the time the gendarmes arrived at the restaurant, the owner had disappeared.

Upon learning of this situation, the Japanese commander who was in charge of investigating the case said: "Follow this clue and find out the situation of the owner of this restaurant." I want to know who this person really is, and what does it matter in China. ”

The military police also took the officers who had offered to ask the cook for interrogation. But as far as these officers were concerned, they had no idea that the restaurant owner was actually an anti-government person.

When the Japanese army launched a series of investigations and sent heavy troops into the Chinese residential areas to conduct searches, the entire Chinese residential areas were once again jumping. The spies of the Xinghua Army also carried out operations in the Japanese army.

Several soldiers of the garrison, during a chance patrol, came across a strange Japanese expatriate whom they did not know. When they learned that the Japanese expatriate had brought them letters from their families, they were naturally overjoyed.

It's just that when they read the letter written by their families, these soldiers suddenly changed their expressions and said, "How can this be? How are my sisters? Damn, how can this be? ”

In the face of these soldiers' inquiries, the Japanese expatriates who met one-on-one also said in a timely manner: "Compared with others, you are relatively lucky." Because of your family, there are still some people who have survived.

But for many, they are fighting for the empire, but their families are being bullied and even killed by the chaebols. Do you think it is still necessary to fight for such an empire?

From the day the war began, the Empire has been deceiving us, telling us that the Empire will win and that we will live a happier life. But in fact? The longer the Imperial War goes on, the more bitter our days become. ”

After some ideological mobilization, these soldiers gradually developed hatred towards the government and even the emperor after facing the great changes in their families. And the soldiers began to know that the diaspora came from an organization called the Japanese Bowl Salvation Association.

It was this organization that planned the Dongjing bombing, and even the bombing that had just occurred in the Governor's Palace, which was also the work of this organization. The mission of this organization is to overthrow the Japanese bowl that is currently controlled by the chaebol and the emperor.

After seeing the hearts of these soldiers waver, the spy in charge of the rebellion also said in a timely manner: "If you are willing to join the National Salvation Association, our organization will ensure the safety of your family and even send you back to China."

It's just that when you return to China, you can't show your face easily. I believe that you should know how hard the military will crack down on deserters. In the islands of Kyushu, we have our own armaments, and you can join them when the time comes.

Today's empire has made enemies with Europe, the United States, and even the entire Asian countries. Behind the scenes, however, we have the support of these countries. Therefore, as long as you join us, your future is bright. ”

Under such temptation, many soldiers began to waver. In cooperation with the wolf-nose spy personnel, they began to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese military camp stationed in Xinjiapo, and one by one the weapons and ammunition warehouses were detonated.

The Japanese army in Xinjiapo, which was originally planning to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression, was detonated overnight in the face of multiple ammunition depots. Naturally, they were shocked and had to suspend their encirclement and suppression offensive.

What's even more frightening to the Japanese troops stationed in Xinjiapo is that there is already a news circulating in the army. There is an organization called the Japanese Bowl Salvation Association, which is recruiting soldiers from the garrison. And the bombing was carried out by these rebel soldiers.

In view of this situation, the Japanese troops stationed in Xinjiapo could only start to carry out corresponding investigations on the army. On the other hand, the Xinghua Army commando team commanded by Zhao Tiehu personally launched a surprise attack on the Japanese troops deployed outside Xinjiapo City.

In the face of the rapidly deteriorating situation in Xinjiapo, the Japanese army, which originally wanted to manage Xinjiapo well, soon fell into a tug-of-war between encirclement and suppression and anti-encirclement and suppression. The death of a large number of soldiers and expatriates made the Japanese soldiers even more cautious when leaving the city.

On the contrary, in the counterattack battles again and again, a large number of British prisoners of war rescued by the Xinghua Army also began to join the counterattack. The battle in Xinjiapo, which should have been pacified, seems to have resurfaced again.

Knowing that a British general and several British military officers stationed in Xinjiapo were rescued by the Xinghua Army, and even a large number of British troops and colonial Indian troops were also rescued, the British side also reacted quickly.

The British commander expressed his gratitude to the Xinghua Army, and also instructed the colonial army in Xinjiapo to cooperate with the Xinghua Army's actions, and the two armies worked together to contain the Japanese army and wait for the counterattack of the British and American forces.

And this situation also played out on the island of Luzon, which was captured by the Japanese army. The combat effectiveness of the Xinghua Army really shocked the Japanese army and other colonial armies. The most troublesome thing for the Japanese army was that the Xinghua Army's jungle combat capability was very strong.

There is even a little bit of fear for the Japanese army, or the brave heart of the Xinghua Army. In Xinjiapo and Luzon Island, the Japanese army fought many battles with the Xinghua army, but not a single prisoner of the Xinghua army was captured.

The reason for this is that even the seriously injured wounded Xinghua Army will sound the glorious bullet on their bodies at the moment when they are about to become prisoners. To a certain extent, this kind of bravery also infected the colonial troops who fought side by side.

Most of the officers and soldiers of the colonial army who had been captured by the Japanese army knew very well how cruel it was to be imprisoned in a prisoner of war camp by the Japanese army. With the fact that he was tortured by the Japanese army, it was better to die heroically at least a little more glorious.

In particular, the US-Filipino forces that had ordered the surrender to the Japanese army on the Bataan Peninsula were sent to a prisoner of war camp more than 100 kilometers away. This march made many American soldiers finally believe what Zhao Tiehu told them earlier.

That is, 'I'd rather die than be a prisoner of the Japanese army'!

Along the march, the Japanese army carried out cruel and inhumane abuse and expulsion of these unarmed American-Philippine forces who announced their surrender. A large number of prisoners of war lay on the jungle march because of disease and hunger.

If it weren't for the halfway, the Xinghua Army organized a number of rescue commandos and launched a rescue for him. I am afraid that the fate of these prisoners of war will become a corpse discarded in the jungle.

In the face of the Xinghua Army, which descended like an angel and attacked and escorted the captured Japanese troops, these saved American and Philippine soldiers were naturally grateful. After the news reached the United States, even Roosevelt personally called to express his gratitude.

The reason is that these American and Filipino soldiers who would have been escorted by the Japanese army to prisoner of war camps and finally sent to the mines under the control of the Japanese army to work as coolies. Although not all of them could be rescued, more than 10,000 captured American troops were rescued, and six or seven thousand people were rescued.

In order to rescue these captured American troops, the Xinghua Army also paid hundreds of casualties. After the news reached the United States, many American people also seemed very grateful to the Xinghua Army.

The families of military personnel who have relatives who served in the captured army expressed their gratitude to Xinghua Army. With the help of these American and Philippine prisoners of war, the armed forces of the Xinghua Army on Luzon Island also grew rapidly.

The weapons, ammunition and supplies stored by the Xinghua Army in Luzon earlier also caused these US-Philippine forces to be quickly armed. After a period of training, they also learned more about jungle warfare.

Under the leadership of the Xinghua Army, they raided the supply lines and defense areas of the Japanese troops stationed on the island. It also posed a great threat to the Japanese troops stationed in Manila. It can be said that the emergence of the Xinghua Army has brought about a huge change in the Nanyang battlefield.

A large number of Chinese refugees in the occupied areas also began to be accepted by the Xinghua Army into the gathering places established in the dense forest. A large number of young Chinese were armed, and Chinese anti-war units were established.

The rapid development and growth of the army undoubtedly posed a huge threat to the Japanese troops who invaded and occupied various parts of Nanyang. But for Zhao Tiehu, this is just the beginning. In the future, the Chinese armed forces, what he wants to see is to become the dominant force in Nanyang!
