At the same time that Liu Qinghe was fighting bloody battles with devils in the Fifth War Zone, other mobile brigades sent out also made slight gains in the Third, Fourth, and Ninth War Zones.

Needless to say, Wan Zixiong is in the third war zone. Because Gu Zhutong knew Wu Mujun and was very supportive of Wan Zixiong, Wan Zixiong was like a fish in water, showing his magical powers in various units in the Third Theater, fighting hundreds of demonstration battles, and also displaying Wu Mujun's equipment to the fullest, stimulating the Third Theater to purchase a large number of them: clay pot grenades, clay pot mines, clay pot grenades, various types of flying mines, mountaineering ropes, rope nets, fishing nets, grenadiers, first aid kits, green ointment......

When Liu Maoer arrived at the Fourth War Zone, Zhang Fakui was polite at first, and invited Liu Maoer to hold several guerrilla tactics training classes to enrich the troops with guerrilla tactics and fight a few demonstration battles. However, due to the command style of the Fourth Theater Commander's Department, the regular troops did not have many opportunities to fight guerrilla warfare, and most of the troops were very unsuitable for the close-range fighting style of guerrilla warfare, so the results of the battle were few, and Liu Mao'er was also very faceless, and Zhang Fakui was not so enthusiastic about Liu Mao'er.

Liu Maoer knew each other very well, and she didn't bother **, she found a quiet place to fish, raise pigs, and train. However, Liu Maoer never relaxed her eyes and ears, and established contact with the surrounding guerrillas, saying that she would provide support to the guerrillas at any time. Whenever the guerrillas fought a larger battle, they would ask Liu Maoer's troops to serve as reserves.

Most of Liu Maoer's troops participated in the battle, so they did not capture much, and the harvest was a thankful gift from each unit, but the guerrillas learned a lot of tactical tactics from the comments of the officers of the Wumu Army at the conclusion of the battle, and thus greatly increased their combat effectiveness.

Liu Maoer is not in a hurry, anyway, he is just a passerby, just to visit the mountains and rivers and train the troops. Until He Laifu sent a telegram, ordering him to end the exchange and return to Xishan.

However, the guerrillas kept Liu Mao'er one after another: with Liu Mao'er, the guerrillas had the bottom of their hearts! However, the military orders were like a mountain, and Liu Maoer could not disobey them, so he left a battalion as a training battalion as a teaching team and reserve for the guerrillas.

He Laifu understood Liu Maoer's situation, and also understood Zhang Fakui's intentions: spend a little money to use Wu Mujun's mobile brigade as a reserve, and at the same time be wary of Wu Mujun, who does not belong to the ** battle sequence, Wu Mujun as a reserve has not been captured, and it has lost the meaning of communication, so it withdrew Liu Maoer's mobile brigade.

Jing Yukun came to the Ninth War Zone with a secret mission. Xue Yue also had a certain understanding of Wu Mujun: the troops were well-equipped, fierce in battle, and cunning in tactics, but they had a strong habit of being tricky with the people, and their ideology, combat style, and equipment system were their own. Therefore, in addition to letting Jing Yukun organize several guerrilla training classes, Xue Yue mainly let the mobile brigade fight freely, so as not to stir in a Wumu army in addition to dealing with the Japanese army and guarding against GCD, and the Chinese army is already chaotic enough. Xue Yue's arrangement was also in Jing Yukun's arms.

Jing Yukun's secret mission was to purchase tungsten sand for Wu Mujun, because Shu Jintang had been able to smelt a small amount of tungsten steel and was ready to expand production, and Jiangxi, the defense area of the Ninth War Zone, was the production area of tungsten sand. It was only when Jing Yukun arrived in the Ninth War Zone that he learned that the order of the headquarters was wrong, and the main tungsten sand production areas were in southern Jiangxi and southern Hunan, at the intersection of the third war zone, the fourth war zone, and the ninth war zone, and they were all the hinterlands of the first world. Jing Yukun reported to Xishan while trying his best to reach a deal with the Ninth War Zone and complete the task of the General Headquarters.

Jing Yukun drove the troops to the Xiliang Lake and Axe Lake areas in the northwest of Xianning, which is backed by the edge of the Ninth War Zone, and can attack Xianning in the south and Wuhan in the north.

At this time, the devils controlled Xianning, Chibi, Jiayu and other places, and there were many devil strongholds along the way, of course, they would not let Jing Yukun go smoothly.

Because Jing Yukun was born in the regular army, the troops also have obvious characteristics of regular operations. With the 1st Infantry Battalion as the vanguard, followed by the Artillery Battalion, the Anti-Tank Battalion, the 2nd and 3rd Infantry Battalions to protect the two wings, the Engineer Battalion, the Baggage Battalion, the Health Brigade, the Brigade Headquarters, the Police Battalion, and the Air Defense Battalion to follow up in the center, and the cavalry battalion and the special service battalion to act as the rearguard, and the units to respond to each other.

The devil-like stronghold is not vulnerable at all, at most one company of troops can be used, covered by heavy machine guns, and the steel pot array will be attacked with javelin flying thunder, and it will be taken in 1 or 2 charges!

After the 1st Battalion uprooted several strongholds in succession, more than 10 casualties were incurred, and positions were swapped with the 2nd Battalion, with the 2nd Battalion as the vanguard and the 1st Battalion protecting the flanks.

The second battalion is the old foundation of Liu Chenghai's eastward brigade, and it is not as regular as the first battalion. They bought a few boxes of bees, and a squad disguised themselves as beekeepers to lure the enemy, and soon took a few strongholds, and only 3 people were slightly injured. The third battalion saw that the first and second battalions had caught meat, and they also asked to switch positions to play forwards. Jing Yukun's original intention was also to let the troops fight in turns, and let the troops be familiar with the combat environment while marching, so that the third battalion would play the front, and the second battalion would retreat to cover the flanks.

The three battalions also launched measures, the big girl, the duck, and the buffalo lured the enemy, and pulled out three strongholds of the devils in a row, without any casualties.

The victory of the second and third battalions made the first battalion commander depressed, he listened to Jing Yukun's words, and as a result, he lost his troops and lost his generals, so he raised his dissatisfaction at the brigade meeting, but was laughed at by the second battalion commander and the third battalion commander: only use strong attacks to hit large strongholds, and of course use small tricks to attack small strongholds, you yourself are not bright-minded, and you still complain about the captain!

Jing Yukun also comforted the commander of the first battalion, and the first battalion fought a large stronghold, which caused some casualties! In fact, Jing Yukun was also taught a lesson and realized the wonders of guerrilla warfare and the significance of regular warfare.

After arriving in the lake area, Jing Yukun inspected the terrain in detail and discussed with the battalion commanders the deployment of troops to adapt to the effective combination of guerrilla warfare and regular warfare: guerrilla warfare should be fought when dispersed, and regular warfare should be fought when gathered; Infantry and cavalry are mainly engaged in guerrilla warfare in peacetime, while heavily equipped troops are mainly engaged in regular warfare, and they must also be able to cooperate with guerrilla warfare.

The southwest of Xianning is the ** defense area, and the northeast is the Japanese defense area, so the devils of Xianning focus on the deployment of troops in the southwest, because the insertion of Jing Yukun's department makes the devils very uncomfortable, so the commander of the Xianning devil garrison, Kurahashi Shoji, reports to the headquarters of the eleventh army of the devils, planning to expel this branch of the army and eradicate the hidden dangers behind it.

Xianning is the frontier town of the devil's **, and the garrison also has two infantry brigades and a mountain artillery squadron, but in addition to the troops performing the garrison task, only an infantry brigade and a mountain artillery squadron can be drawn, so Wuhan sent an infantry brigade and a mountain artillery squadron to eliminate this Chinese army with a north-south flanking attack.

Jing Yukun killed the devil before he could gain a stable foothold. Jing Yukun used the traditional methods of the Wu Mu army, first flooding the road, and then laying bamboo sticks and mine arrays, while blocking the attack of the devils and deploying troops to counterattack.

However, under the guidance of the locals, the devils carried out multiple detours to outflank and back the Wumu army. Jing Yukun did not suffer a loss, but resisted the frontal attack of the devils, annihilated most of the devils who penetrated into the side back, and established a firm foundation in the north of Xianning. This is due to the fact that the Wu Mu army is well-equipped and has strong firepower.

Jing Yukun summed up his experience after the war, and the most important thing was that the local people helped the devils. In this regard, Jing Yukun invited the instructors of the New Fourth Army who accompanied the team.

The instructors of the New Fourth Army analyzed: Not that the local people are traitors, but that the local people are poor and uneducated, and they have experienced many warlord melees, and they don't know what is right and which is wrong.

The response is as follows: 1. Help the local people get rich and win the hearts of the people; 2. Strengthen and popularize ideological education to resist Japan and save the country; 3. Severely punish elements who are enemies.

The next problem is the language barrier. Most of the Wu Mujun were people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and occasionally the veterans of the Hunan Army, the Gui Army, and the Guangdong Army spoke dialects or official dialects, which the people here could not understand.

Xue Yue had to trouble Xue Yue in this matter, and a group of soldiers from Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi were transferred to communicate with the locals. Xue Yue was very cooperative, and sent more than 600 soldiers from Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, who were actually led by colonels.

Jing Yukun scattered ** and assigned it to each squad to cooperate with Wu Mujun. These soldiers have received national defense education, and they have lectured the people on the principles of resisting Japan and saving the country, about how the devils are murderous and how they harm the Chinese, and they also took out a large number of newspapers with photos to show the people how the devils have harmed the Chinese people; At the same time, he organized a group of influential local people, such as patriarchs, scholars, and thorns, to go to southern Jiangsu, central Jiangsu, northern Zhejiang, and other base areas for on-the-spot "tourism and investigation." Under the guidance of instructors of the New Fourth Army, he also compiled stories and theatrical performances, which soon gave the locals a sense of resistance against Japan.

But it is not enough to rely on lip service, there must also be "dry goods": Wu Mujun took out the fishing nets he used to fish to supplement his supplies, and used them first and then bought them for the local people to use; The purchase of grain, vegetables, chicken, fish, meat and eggs is bought and sold publicly; It also purchased a large number of straw shoes at the price of 5 pairs of straw sandals for 1 ocean, increasing the local people's wealth project, because the straw shoes have high friction, good water permeability and air permeability, and are better than cloth shoes in mountainous areas and river areas; purchase local homespun cloth and silk; free medical treatment for the locals, and the sewing machines of the baggage camp were used to mend the clothes of the locals; teach the locals to make simple carts out of bamboo; teach the locals to build brick kilns and lime kilns; Teach the locals to make a hard crossbow for hunting...... The ocean flowed out in an uproar, until a large number of shovels, picks, plows, nets, paper-making technicians, crossbows, and improvised carts began to flow in again.

The locals made money and naturally cooperated with Wu Mujun. Whoever is implicated with the Japanese, Wu Mujun will not accept the goods from this family, nor will he provide products that are used first and then purchased, and if it is serious, he will kill people! This can't be concealed from Jing Yukun, who was born in the gendarmerie.

Jing Yukun was busy and taught the local hunters a trick: set up a large net on three sides of the reed pond and set off firecrackers on one side, which was extremely efficient in capturing, lower cost and higher efficiency than using bird guns, and the hunters competed to follow suit.

Xue Yue saw that the Jing Yukun defense area had effectively mobilized the people, and through the officers and soldiers of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi who were sent to support Jing Yukun, he naturally knew that there was GCD's participation, but he did not say anything about it, and he also specifically consulted Jing Yukun, and obtained the know-how of "raising the people, teaching the people, and governing the people", and vigorously promoted it in the defense area as the chairman of Hunan Province.

Jing Yukun did not concentrate on governing the defense area, during which the devil launched a large-scale battle of Zaoyi north of Wuhan, and at the same time sent troops to attack Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi to contain the ** south of the Yangtze River, Jing Yukun bore the brunt.

Previously, Jing Yukun fought with the Xianning devils many times, but he had a slight upper hand, seized a batch of weapons and equipment, and killed and injured hundreds of devils. The Xianning devils wanted to concentrate their forces to fight Jing Yukun many times, but they were stopped by Okamura Ningji, for fear of causing loopholes in the entire front.

The devils launched a feint attack from Nanchang and Huangshi. This was a good opportunity to expel or annihilate Jing Yukun's troops, so two infantry wings and one artillery wing of the 33rd Division of the devil in Huangshi rushed straight to Jing Yukun's mobile brigade.

As soon as the war in Jiangbei started, Jing Yukun made corresponding preparations, and without waiting for the devils to make a move, he launched a preemptive attack on the devils in Xianning.

The cavalry battalion went first, clearing the way of obstacles, the artillery battalion followed, followed by the third infantry battalion.

In order to guard against Jing Yukun, the devil arranged two infantry squadrons, two mountain guns, and two mortars in the northwest of Xianning City.

Taking advantage of Jing Yukun's arrangement of artillery positions, the devil had already set up the mountain artillery to shoot at Zhu Yuan and opened fire, trying to hit the opponent with an unstable foothold.

Jing Yukun had long expected the devil to play this hand, the artillery layout position was just an illusion to lure the enemy, the artillery battalion flying thunder company in front and the cavalry battalion immediately bombarded the devil's infantry position, machine gun position, and artillery position, and the meteor flying thunder could only barely reach the devil's machine gun position, but the high-density bombardment covered the devil's artillery's line of sight, Jing Yukun's artillery took the opportunity to arrange the artillery, 3 75mm mountain guns, 9 90mm mortars divided into 1 mountain gun, 3 mortars fired roughly, disturbing the devil's mind and sight, The other mountain artillery and mortars hurriedly set up to shoot at Zhuyuan, and then launched precise artillery bombardments on the artillery positions, machine gun positions, and infantry positions of the devils, and the three infantry battalions that followed up launched an attack under the cover of artillery. The cavalry battalion withdrew from the battle, and the flying thunder company of the artillery battalion rushed to the artillery position south of the devil's city, where there were still 6 mountain guns of the devil, and it would be a disaster to keep them sooner or later.

Jing Yukun's artillery suppressed the devil's firepower, and the third infantry battalion captured the devil's position with a single charge, but according to the battle plan, the devil was divided into two parts to attack and not overcome, attracting devil reinforcements; The artillery battalion crossed the devil's position and moved forward to the devil's artillery position, preparing to fight the devil's reinforcements for a fire ambush; At the same time attract attention to the surprise attack of the cavalry battalion.

The devils in Xianning only had 6 infantry squadrons, and two squadrons were surrounded, so Kurahashi Shoji had to send two more squadrons with two mortars to reinforce them.

Jing Yukun commanded 2 mortars to be aimed at the devils in the two encirclements, 7 mortars were aimed at the only way for the devil's reinforcements, and 3 mountain guns were aimed at the fortifications in the city on the north side of Xianning, just waiting for the devil's reinforcements to appear.

The devil's reinforcements appeared in the predetermined area, and the mortars of the Wu Mu army waited for the rabbits, covering the mortars of the devils who entered the predetermined area with their first firepower.

The next batch of unlucky ones were the devil infantry---- and no one was good with reinforcements and the besieged devils!

Kurahashi Shoji got the report and hurriedly ordered the devil artillery in the south of the city to withdraw to the city, but it was a step too late. Jing Yukun's cavalry battalion and artillery battalion Flying Thunder Company have already launched an attack!

Kurahashi Shoji had no choice but to send another squadron to rescue artillery, a squadron transport squadron and a squadron to the north to prepare to block the enemy.

Jing Yukun eliminated the devils outside the city, sorted out the troops, and attacked Xianning City non-stop under the cover of artillery.

Kurahashi Shoji personally commanded the battle in the north of the city, and saw that the Wumu army only had 3 or 400 infantry people, but it was all automatic weapons, and the firepower was extremely powerful, not to mention the fire support of artillery! But Kurahashi Shoji couldn't retreat, and the imperial army of 4 or 500 people was defeated by the Shina army, which was less than his own number, and he must apologize when he returned!

A squadron in the south of the city withdrew, and more than 40 artillery pieces and 2 mountain guns were rescued, and the cavalry of the Chinese army also attacked!

Kurahashi Shoji knew that the general trend had gone, and hurriedly organized the existing troops to withdraw from Xianning City from the east.
