Kunomura Momoyo believes that the Chinese troops have entered the territory of Hotoku Prefecture, and their goal is to eat the troops they are stationed in the town of Ryozhuang.

For Sun Weiguo, Kunomura Momoyo has studied, he knows that Sun Weiguo has a character of revenge, this time the Japanese troops used poison gas bombs to repel the attack of the Chinese troops, bringing great losses to the Chinese troops, Sun Weiguo would be surprised if he did not react at all.

Kunomura Momoyo didn't have to think about it to know that Sun Weiguo would definitely retaliate against him, and this time Sun Weiguo transferred troops from Hequ County, he definitely wanted to attack Waist Zhuang Town.

"The harassment carried out by the Shina troops is just to test our firepower here, immediately contact Okamoto and Araki Shaosa, and ask them to prepare for battle, beware of the sneak attack of the Shina troops, and at the same time order the artillery positions to be ready for firing, and to protect the artillery positions." Kunomura Momoyo immediately gave the order and said.

Chief of Staff Shaosa nodded, and he immediately left the wing headquarters and began to convey the order of Momoyo Kunomura.

At 10 o'clock in the evening of 20 March, the troops of the First Independent Regiment rushed to the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River through a rapid march under the leadership of Commander Qian Zhongming.

After the 1st and 2nd Reserve Brigades of the Japanese Army in Hequ County determined that there were no Chinese troops in the county seat of Hequ County, they quickly began to transfer, and at this time the Japanese troops began to be stationed in the county seat of Hequ County, and they sent an infantry squad to reconnoiter and check the location of the Chinese troops.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, the Japanese squad sent by the 1st Reserve Brigade came to the junction of Hequ County and Baode County, and then they were attacked by the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, and the Japanese squad was completely annihilated.

At 12 o'clock in the morning of 21 March, the headquarters of the North China Front sent a telegram to Kunomura Momoyo, in which Terauchi asked Kunomura Momoyo to quickly defeat the Chinese troops and rescue the Japanese troops in Wuzhai County, and at the same time Terauchi asked Kunomura Momoyo to cooperate with the 11th Wing to protect Wuzhai County, Shenchi County, Ningwu County and other county towns occupied by the Japanese army.

Terauchi Toshiichi apparently had high hopes for Kunomura Momoyo, and he hoped that Kunomura Momoyo would be able to deal with the Chinese troops from the river meanders to Hotoku.

But apparently Shouichi Terauchi overestimated the ability of Kunomura Momoyo, and at this time, Kunomura Momoyo's situation was a little difficult.

Sun Weiguo created an illusion, and Kunomura Momoyo also believed in this illusion, and he felt that Sun Weiguo was planning to attack the town of Waist Village.

At three o'clock in the morning, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, the Armored Company, and the Reconnaissance Company began to move rapidly towards the south bank of the Zhujiachuan River, while the troops of the 1st Independent Detachment had already entered Hequ County.

At four o'clock in the morning, the first battalion of the first reserve regiment, under the command of Yin Jin, began to launch a feint attack on the town of Yuanzhuang, and after half an hour of fighting, the troops of the first battalion quickly withdrew.

After five o'clock in the morning, Sun Weiguo issued an ultimatum to the Seventh Cavalry Division of the Puppet Army and the Ninth Cavalry Division of the Puppet Army as the commander of the Left Route Army, Sun Weiguo gave the Puppet Army cavalry troops two choices, the first option was to abandon the darkness and join the Eighth Route Army, and the second option was to quickly disband the troops and let the officers and soldiers lay down their arms and return to their hometowns.

After Master Ding and Master Cai got Sun Weiguo's notice through Zhang Junjia, the two of them discussed carefully for a long time.

In the end, Division Commander Ding and Division Commander Cai chose to return to Biguan County with their troops, and after rescuing their families, they were going to be left behind.

However, there were more than 600 people in the two cavalry divisions who were unwilling to continue to follow them, and these cavalry wanted to join the Eighth Route Army.

Division Commander Ding and Division Commander Cai secretly left with the troops, and more than 600 cavalry joined the establishment of the first regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the largest of these cavalry positions was only the platoon commander, Sun Weiguo immediately sent Ge Haifeng with a reconnaissance company to cross the Zhujiachuan River to incorporate these puppet cavalry, and these cavalry were temporarily organized by Sun Weiguo as the first battalion of cavalry.

The fiery red sun began to rise in the east, the darkness began to disperse, and the surroundings began to become commanding.

The troops of the 4th Cavalry Division, under the command of Yan Yong, began to loot the nearby villages, but these puppet cavalry found that the nearby villages had already become dark.

Especially when Yan Yong wanted to go to Commander Ding and Commander Cai, he was shocked again to find that the Seventh Cavalry Division and the Ninth Cavalry Division had mysteriously disappeared.

Division Commander Ding and Division Commander Cai evacuated very secretly, and in order to prevent the war horse from making a sound, they even wrapped the war horse's hooves with cloth and tied the war horse's mouth.

"Division commander, there is no trace of the 7th Cavalry Division and the 9th Cavalry Division nearby, and the people nearby have been evacuated, these people evacuated in a hurry, and many things from home were not taken away." A puppet army officer came to Yan Yong and reported.

Hearing the report of his officers and soldiers, Yan Yong couldn't help but show a puzzled expression on his face, he didn't understand what was going on.

However, Iwata Wenzo immediately summoned Yan Yong to his headquarters, and the two puppet cavalry divisions disappeared, Iwata Wenzo was very angry in his heart, he also knew that Commander Ding and Commander Cai's troops had escaped, and he had never trusted them.

Division Commander Ding and Division Commander Cai are both from the Northeast Army, you must know that Zhang Zuolin, the ancestor of the Northeast Army, is a soldier and bandit, and in order to save his life, he will do everything.

Their escape didn't surprise Iwata Fumizo, and he didn't even send a telegram to report the incident to the higher-ups.

After summoning Saito and Yan Yong in front of him, Iwata Fumizo immediately began to change his disposition, and he had Saito Shaosa's infantry brigade attack from the front, while his cavalry wing and Yan Yong's 4th Cavalry Division attacked from the flank.

After drawing up a new battle plan, the Japanese puppet army troops were quickly mobilized, and at seven o'clock in the morning, the Japanese puppet army troops began to attack the artillery positions.

The Japanese infantry skillfully carried out tactical movements, they quickly marched towards the artillery position, the Japanese puppet army 2,000 cavalry was even faster, they rushed towards the artillery position, without encountering any obstacles, the Japanese puppet cavalry directly entered the artillery position.

But when they came to the artillery position, the Japanese puppet army couldn't help but widen their eyes, because there was no trace of the Chinese troops on the artillery position.

"Baga, what the hell is going on, where did all the troops of China go." Iwata Fumizo couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Wing Commander, none of the Chinese troops were seen nearby, and no civilians were found." A squad leader in charge of the guard immediately came to Iwata Fumizo, and he hurriedly reported.
