When the independent column returned to Yulin and officially entered the stage of rest. The North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army were undoubtedly very angry about the surrender of the 12th Division, which was also regarded by many generals as a shame for the Japanese army.

If the Kwantung Army was said before, it also blamed the North China Front for not doing its best in rescuing the 12th Division. Then as soon as the Eighth Route Army was electrified, the Kwantung Army was embarrassed to admit that the 12th Division was their unit.

If some soldiers surrendered, the Japanese might have found it harmless. After all, they have a lot of troops stationed in Huaxia, and it is reasonable that some soldiers who are not determined will occasionally appear.

But this time, the surrender of nearly 5,000 Japanese troops, including two Japanese major generals, really made the Japanese army department furious. He immediately instructed the Kwantung Army and the North China Front Army to find a way to wash away this shame.

In fact, as expected by Shuzo. From the moment they chose to surrender, hoping to save their lives, they became traitors. For traitors, the Japanese army will not show mercy to them.

Originally, on the way back to Yulin by the independent column, the Japanese army also sent planes to search. It was hoped that on the way back to Yulin under the escort of the prisoners by the independent column, these traitors who had betrayed the Japanese army would be blown up.

It's a pity that He Zhengdao also seems to realize that the Japanese army will retaliate. On the way back to Yulin, He Zhengdao still took the way of day and night. As a result, it became clear that the search of the Japanese aircraft could only return in vain.

Considering that the Japanese army will retaliate with air strikes next. Ho Zhengdao also instructed the front-line troops to strengthen air vigilance. Once a large number of Japanese bombers were discovered, the news had to be transmitted back to the column combat command as soon as possible.

He Zhengdao also sent such a telegram to the Central Committee and the General Headquarters. With the incident of the previous bombing by the Japanese army, the central authorities and the general headquarters undoubtedly attached great importance to this kind of prediction made by He Zhengdao.

After the Japanese army bombed the base areas on a large scale last time, causing heavy losses in personnel and property, the people in the base areas also appeared to be more cooperative with the air defense drills conducted by the troops from time to time than before. Knowing that the air raid sirens sounded, they hurried to the bomb shelter.

It's just that in He Zhengdao's opinion, once the Japanese army knows that those Japanese soldiers who have been captured will be placed in Yulin City. I believe that the little devil will find a way to organize a large-scale air raid and carry out a large-scale air raid on Yulin again.

In this regard, at the end of the meeting, He Zhengdao also told the responsible person of the border district government: "In order to prevent the recurrence of the situation that the people did not retreat in time during the previous air raid. Next, the government can notify the people in the city in advance.

Once the air raid siren is raised in the city, it is hoped that the people in the city can also go to the air-raid shelter to take refuge as soon as possible. But this time, if the little devil's air force really dares to come, I will definitely make them pay a heavy price. ”

Xiao Jinguang, who heard this, said with some expectation after the meeting: "Is there progress in the arsenal?" ”

'What did the commissar say?' ’

Didn't you just say that if the little devil's plane dared to attack Yulin, you would teach them a profound lesson? As for the little anti-aircraft weapons in our city, I'm afraid that they will not pose a threat to the little devil's plane, right?

Some time ago, didn't you say that the arsenal was developing anti-aircraft guns? You just said that you want to teach the attacking little devils a good lesson, isn't it that the arsenal has already produced anti-aircraft guns, which can be installed in large numbers for our troops? ’

As a soldier, Xiao Jinguang naturally knew the usefulness of anti-aircraft guns. Nowadays, the arsenal has also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in research and development in this regard. The purpose is to hope that air defense weapons against the little devil planes can be developed as soon as possible.

In the absence of the development of airplanes for the time being, and the fact that a small number of captured fighters could not be lifted into the air, strengthening the deployment of ground air defense weapons became the only way to deal with the Japanese bombing. It's normal for Xiao Jinguang to think like this!

It's just that after hearing this, He Zhengdao shook his head and said: "Regarding the development of anti-aircraft machine guns, the arsenal has made some progress. As for the anti-aircraft guns, there are still a lot of difficult problems that they need to spend time studying.

I said that earlier, and I have a certain degree of certainty. This time, in Zhuozi, in addition to capturing a batch of heavy artillery and tank armored vehicles of the 12th Division, we also captured a batch of Japanese anti-aircraft weapons.

Although the performance of these anti-aircraft weapons is not very good, it is still much better than the anti-aircraft weapons that we have captured before. Although when it was seized, the little devil destroyed a batch. But I believe that there is no problem in forming two air defense battalions.

Coupled with the anti-aircraft weapons that we were equipped with before, and the placement of an air defense regiment outside the city of Yulin, I think it is still possible. The most important thing is that many of the anti-aircraft guns we captured this time had an air defense distance of nearly 10,000 meters.

Suffice it to say that if the little devils, without knowing it, crashed into our anti-aircraft ambush circle. With anti-aircraft machine guns, these anti-aircraft weapons equipped with us can strike at them in the airspace of high, medium, and low.

It's just that at the moment these two anti-aircraft battalions have not been training for too long. Whether or not we can make good use of these air defense weapons at that time is still worth considering. But no matter what, it's not my style to get bombed all the time, so I have to fight back against them anyway.

If we don't teach the little devil a painful lesson, we won't want to live in peace in the future. Taking this opportunity, I revealed the news that the little devils were captive and locked up in the city, and I believe that the intelligence department of the little devils should know soon.

Didn't you say before, why did you imprison the little devil to the west side of the city? Now think about it, isn't the terrain very suitable for arranging anti-aircraft ambush positions? I'm going to let the little devils fall into the net! ”

Looking at He Zhengdao's evil smile on his face, Xiao Jinguang suddenly realized: "I see! It seems that since you came back, you have figured out how to make a little devil's air force, right? That's a great idea, that's a great idea! ”

remembered that He Zhengdao had a little devil air force in Yan'an, and Xiao Jinguang was also happy to see that He Zhengdao was at the gate of the headquarters of the independent column, giving the little devil air force a fatal blow, so that the little devil air force knew what it meant to be afraid.

After saying these words, He Zhengdao thought for a while and said: "Two days later, all those little devils who were imprisoned in the prisoner camp will be transferred to the secret prison outside the city. In addition, let the Japanese battalion of the reconnaissance brigade go in and live in it for a few days to fool the little devils. ”

'Good! You can make up your mind about this matter, and if there is something that you need my cooperation, you can just say it! ’

As the political commissar of the independent column, Xiao Jinguang also knows very well that he is in the independent column, and many times he cooperates with He Zhengdao's work. But even so, Xiao Jinguang also felt very honored to be a partner with He Zhengdao.

Although He Zhengdao's current military rank in the Nationalist Government is one level higher than his, and he also holds the post of deputy commander of the independent division. But when he applied for the rank before, He Zhengdao also won a major general rank for him.

For the Nationalist Government, which was unwilling to recognize the position of political commissar at that time, He Zhengdao's move still moved Xiao Jinguang very much. Most importantly, in matters involving the responsibility of the political commissar, He Zhengdao rarely interfered in his affairs.

Even when there was no one or nobody, He Zhengdao gave him enough respect. It is precisely because of this that the partners of the two seem to be very satisfied, they get along with each other very well, and the central government and the headquarters are also very relieved.

After returning to Yulin to have a meeting with Xiao Jinguang and the person in charge of the border district government, He Zhengdao still did not go to rest like other soldiers. Instead, he took the guard company and went to the temporary camp where the Japanese prisoners were held overnight.

Accompanying He Zhengdao was accompanied by a special combat team that usually followed He Zhengdao. Under normal circumstances, the special combat team will arrange a small team to be on standby by He Zhengdao's side 24 hours a day.

Regarding Zhu Fei, who was by his side tonight, He Zhengdao asked as he walked: "Zhu Fei, how are the things arranged for you?" ”

'Report to the Commander, we have received your order, and we have made arrangements in advance. Once a rat hits the net, it is believed that they will not be able to escape. However, at the moment, we have not found any suspicious targets. ’

'Good! This kind of thing is not rushed, I believe that with such a big temptation, those hidden rats will definitely come out of the hole. All you have to do is keep an eye on them. As soon as their nest is discovered, they are immediately captured.

Although, all along, our counterintelligence work has been doing well. But after a long time, there will be some fish that slip through the net. Take advantage of this opportunity to root them up. These people hiding in the city are a time bomb after all! ’

'Yes, please rest assured, commander, as long as they dare to show their faces, we will definitely find them out!' ’

The camp where the little devil captives were held was placed in a relatively remote place in Yulin City. It seems that it is also for confidentiality and security reasons. In fact, this is the most suitable place for ambush in He Zhengdao's opinion.

This time, let the little devils parade through the streets, in addition to telling the little devils that these prisoners were imprisoned in Yulin City, He Zhengdao also had a plan, which was to use it to fish for the Japanese spies lurking in the city. He believed that the city would not be so clean!

Usually little devils don't easily activate these latent informants, but this time something so big happened, these informants will definitely show up. If they show up, they will be targeted by the special operators who provide an ambush.

Under the vine and melon, He Zhengdao believes that he will find out these lurkers. Even if you can't clean them up all at once, for the independent column, you can find one and earn one.

After all, it must have taken a lot of effort for the Japanese spies to be able to successfully infiltrate Yulin. For such a lurking person, He Zhengdao felt that he had to eradicate it. Otherwise, sooner or later, the independent column will suffer the loss of these latent informants.

In order to ensure the secrecy of the operation, He Zhengdao directly ordered Zhu Fei to make arrangements. Even the officers and men of the reconnaissance brigade guarding the prisoners of the little devils also did not know that there was such a plan to lure and arrest them.

Taking advantage of the little devil's intention to get rid of these captives, He Zhengdao also has to design the little devil well. In He Zhengdao's view, this can be regarded as a waste utilization of these little devils! (To be continued.) )
