Chapter 156 Emergency Mission: Bacteriological Warfare in Zhejiang and Jiangxi

Xiao Xiong stayed at Lei Gongyan with peace of mind, waiting for the troops to come and respond. Li Jinli took out good wine and food to entertain Xiao Xiong, and said the doubts in his heart:

"Commander Xiao, how did you get this play? Why don't I see it at all? ”

Xiao Xiong smiled slightly, and whispered a sentence in his ear:

"Wang Caigui is drugged, and Li Minghua is tested for poison with silver chopsticks."

Li Jinli suddenly realized: "So that's the case!" ”

It turned out that Xiao Xiong knew that Li Jinli's troops were composed of complex compositions, and that he had a negative attitude on the major issue of resisting the Japanese government, and did not dare to confront the devils head-on, in a vain attempt to preserve his strength. This is a typical practice of rogue gangsters, and in the long run, it will inevitably affect the morale of the troops and cause an extremely bad impact.

Moreover, since the guerrillas received Xiao Xiong and them, Xiao Xiong found that Wang Caigui had hardly shown up, and several members of the team were suspicious, always inquiring about their whereabouts and news. This made Xiao Xiong feel that Wang Caigui was not good, and he must have some intentions.

Therefore, in order to prevent accidents, he quietly made secret arrangements for Li Minghua and others, and dispatched four team members to hide in the shadows, responsible for secret surveillance and vigilance.

As expected, when Wang Heizi nervously walked in with a vegetable bowl, Li Minghua found that his hands were trembling slightly. He knew that this guy must not be at ease, so he guarded against him.

He asked the fat man to deliberately make trouble, took the opportunity to take out the silver chopsticks and inserted them into the vegetable basin, picked up another piece of meat, and found that the chopsticks had turned light black. He immediately estimated that this pot of vegetables was drugged, but it was just ordinary sweat medicine or something.

In order to make sure that the dish was drugged, Li Minghua forcibly fed Wang Heizi two pieces of meat, and beat him half to death.

Li Jinli listened to Xiao Xiong's narration and admired him even more, and yearned for the fiery and thrilling combat life of the Einsatzgruppen, especially the special combat team.

He said to Xiao Xiong:

"Commander, I want to join the Einsatzgruppen, just talk to our boss and take me."

Xiao Xiong thought for a while and said:

"Now is not the time, your unit is currently in the period of retraining, you must regularize it as soon as possible, and those personnel who are really not suitable for the combat unit must be laid off and rearranged. In this way, in order to give you hope, I will go and ask the guerrilla corps for instructions, and let your troops cooperate with our Yunshan guerrillas led by Han Feng to integrate and conduct joint operations, is this okay? ”

"That would be great. I'll have a chance to participate in the combat operations of your Einsatzgruppen in the future, right? ”

Xiao Xiong nodded: "Yes, after this operation, I want to establish a base on the two important communication lines of Yongxiu-Wuning and Ruichang-Wuning, so that our troops can maintain closer and smoother contact with the theater." In the future, you and Han Feng will be tasked with finding ways to establish our transportation corridor and ensure its smooth flow. ”

"Yes! Guaranteed completion of the task. Li Jinli replied excitedly.

Xiao Xiong continued:

"Although Wang Caigui and Wang Heizi are greedy for money, they are still sober in the face of this major right and wrong, otherwise they may use extreme means to seize gold. Fortunately, they are just greedy for money, otherwise they would have died a long time ago, and I would never have let them live. Now let them leave the army, find them a place to settle down, do intelligence work, with their cleverness, maybe they will be able to use it in the future"

Over the next three days, Xiao Xiong sent Li Minghua to lead a special combat team to conduct overloaded military training for Li Jinli's guerrillas, which greatly changed the appearance of this loose and untrained unit.

On the fourth day, the special service company of the theater who rushed from Xiushui accepted the gold from the special combat team and delivered the two letters it brought to Xiao Xiong.

Xiao Xiong first opened a letter with the word "commendation" written on it, which spoke highly of the performance of the Einsatzgruppen in this golden operation, and gave promotion rewards to Li Minghua, Wang Xiaofei, Liu Junshan and other team members, and commended them in the war zone. There was also a commendation order in it.

Xiao Xiong handed over the commendation order and letter to Jiang Feng and asked him to convey it to the brothers. He opened another letter with the word "Top Secret" written on it, and he looked at it quickly, and the more he looked at it, the more his brow furrowed. After reading it once, he read it a second time, then took out a lighter and burned the letter.

After reading this letter, Xiao Xiong ordered all the special combat teams to assemble, prepare to leave, and immediately rush back to Jiujiang.

After bidding farewell to Li Jinli, Xiao Xiong led the special combat team to prepare to cross the mountains around Taohuajian, first go to Yunshan, and then take the train back to Jiujiang.

It turned out that the theater sent a circular that was only circulated at the division commander level and above, which reported the recent Zhejiang-Jiangxi campaign.

Among them, in the part of the bacteriological warfare launched by the devils against our military and civilians, due to the limited sources of intelligence, only the cases of the war situation were described.

At the beginning of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Campaign, the aircraft was used to drop wheat grains and millet seeds mixed with the "common fleas of humans and rats" infected with the plague in Quzhou, Zhejiang. Thirty-eight days later, all 22 plague patients in the area died.

On the 22nd, the army also dropped fleas, wheat, cotton, and other things infected with rat vaccines over Ningbo. Since then, plague has occurred in the area, and 99 people have contracted the disease, but only two have been cured.

The army also dropped rat vaccines in Jinhua and other places, causing the plague to spread, and the common people died and fell ill very seriously, and some families and even villages were completely wiped out.

After that, Kou's approach became even more insidious. This time, the army threw bacteria into wells, swamps and houses, and specially made some "egg-shaped, long-flat biscuits" infected with bacteria, and then let the soldiers distribute them to the Chinese. This led to a massive outbreak of plague, in which tens of thousands of poor people died from plague and other bacterial diseases.

In the spring of last year, in order to destroy Changde, an important hub controlled by the Chinese [***] team, and the areas along the transportation route, he sent a second group of expeditions to sprinkle fleas with plague on airplanes, causing plague to occur in the area, killing hundreds of people and causing a huge panic among the people.

During the Battle of Zhejiang-Jiangxi, military planes sowed fleas, plague, erythrhoea, and anthrax containing germs to the [***] positions and rear areas in Jinhua and Lanxi. In Yushan, Shangrao, Guangfeng and other places in Jiangxi Province, fleas infected with plague and various wild rodents with plague virus were released, and rice with plague bacteria was sprinkled for rats to eat before infecting local residents. They also directly spread typhoid and paratyphoid bacteria, and threw cholera bacteria directly into wells, springs, and rivers. As a result, plague, cholera, dysentery, typhoid fever, and anthrax broke out in the above-mentioned areas, resulting in the death of a large number of civilians and soldiers.

During the battle, the Yue army invaded Yushan County, and the villagers found that the Yue Ben plane was hovering and diving over the village in front of the house, dropping bombs and scattering things like straw ash, and yellow smoke drifted in the sky, slowly covering the village.

Since then, there have been "strange diseases" in many villages from time to time, some people are covered with pimples, itchy and painful, scratched with their hands, broken skin and bleeding pus, and the flesh on the body falls down piece by piece until the white bones are exposed. Within a few days, the man died in agony. Some villagers had a fever and chills, and when they had a fever, they had to pour a lot of well water to cool down, and when they were cold, they had to wrap themselves in a quilt and bask in the sun to survive, and finally they were tortured to the point of almost madness and painful death. At that time, people were dying every day in the village.

Later, military planes and troops also threw tin cans for drinking water, glass bottles, fruits, baked cakes, and biscuits outside the courtyard walls of ordinary people's homes, under trees, on main roads, and other places. Deliberately let the common people pick up and eat, and as a result, the epidemic is even greater.

Meihuadun Village, Yanrui Town, was located near Yushan Airport, and after the retreat of the Yue army, the villagers returned to the village and picked up many supplies left by the Yue army, but after a short time, more than 60 of the 100 villagers had rotten feet.

In addition to the civilian population, the soldiers of our army who participated in the battle also suffered huge losses, some of them were seriously ill, and the non-combat attrition increased dramatically, so they had to withdraw from the battle.

At the end of the briefing, the commander's department instructed: It has been learned that the army has secretly established bacteriological units in Nanchang and Jiujiang, and the first task of the special combat team at present is to find and destroy them immediately.

Xiao Xiong harbored a cloud of anger in his heart, and he briefly introduced the situation to several officers. As soon as everyone heard this, they became anxious, and they couldn't wait to return to Jiujiang immediately to eliminate those demonic devils. (To be continued.) )
