When the little ghost led the army to withdraw, the anti-Japanese federation hiding in the mountains hurriedly came out, shouting from house to house, and finally found dozens of seriously wounded people hiding in the villagers' homes, they were going to take the seriously wounded to the neighboring village to be placed first, and then bury the villagers when they came to the neighboring village, but when they came to the neighboring village, they found that the whole village had been quiet, when they sent a soldier to enter cautiously, they found that the surrounding villages except for a few hidden children escaped, and the rest of the people were brutally slaughtered by the Japanese army.

At the same time, not only Lao Daogou, but also several villages around him were also attacked, because the Japanese army did not catch the cadres of the Anti-Japanese Union in Lao Daogou, in order to vent, under the leadership of the squadron leader Pingmoto, swept the surrounding nearby villages, causing heavy losses to the property of the people, but did not hurt their lives.

At the General Headquarters of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the North Manchurian Base Area, Meng Qingshan and Deputy Commander Yang Jingyu were studying the development direction of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the new year, that is, in 1940, facing the huge northeast map in front of them, suddenly, an exclamation was transmitted from the telegraph room not far away to the headquarters, and Meng Qingshan couldn't help frowning when he heard the scolding.

"Chief of Staff, go and see, what's going on in the telegraph room?" Meng Qingshan turned his head to the chief of staff and ordered. However, before Meng Qingshan's words were finished, he saw Hu Ren, the confidential staff officer of the headquarters, running into the headquarters with an angry face, and even forgot to shout the report.

"Comrade Hu Ren, something happened, in a hurry." Meng Qingshan looked at Hu Ren in front of him with dissatisfaction, who interrupted Meng Qingshan's strategic intentions, and criticized.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, I know it's wrong." Hu Ren replied embarrassedly.

"Yes. Just remember next time, something happened. Hu Ren? Meng Qingshan nodded and asked.

"Commander-in-Chief, Deputy Commander Yang. Something happened, and just now the commander of the 4th Division sent a telegram that something had happened to the 4th Division. Speaking of the contents of the telegram, Hu Ren's face was full of anger again, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

"Speak slowly, don't rush." Meng Qingshan said.

"Commander-in-chief, Lao Daogou of the Fourth Division was slaughtered by devils, and all 352 people in the village were brutally killed by the little devils, as well as Nanyangzhuang. Wang Zhuang was suddenly attacked by devils the day before yesterday, and suffered heavy losses, and more than 1,000 soldiers and civilians were killed in three villages... It's a telegram..."

"What, how could it be... Isn't this all covered with snow? How could the little devil move" After listening to Hu Ren's words, Meng Qingshan's face was full of shock, and he asked incredulously, he always thought that the Japanese army had no major military movements in the past month or so, and it seemed that it should be the same as the Anti-Japanese Federation. But I never thought that the little devil would actually play this with Meng Qingshan.

"Oops, Commander-in-Chief, we have all overlooked an important matter, we only want to get the medicine back. But I never thought that the Japanese officer who was demoted because of the loss of medicine, now that I think about it, more than half a month has passed, and the little devil will definitely take revenge on us as soon as he takes office. Yang Jingyu was also shocked. But I reacted immediately.

"Oh, negligence. What an oversight......" Meng Qingshan slapped the table and sighed.

"Commander-in-Chief, now is not the time to be sad. We'll have to figure out whether the little devil's action was unintentional or planned. Cui Shiquan, who was next to him, saw Meng Qingshan's sad face and hurriedly reminded.

"Yes, we must investigate clearly, notify the director of the intelligence department, and let him mobilize all the intelligence agents in North Manchuria, and we must find out the purpose of the Japanese army's operation this time... In addition, Comrade Hu Ren, inform the five military sub-districts below to intensify their vigilance at the edge of the base areas so that the same situation must not happen again, and at the same time ask the Fourth Military Region to exterminate this little devil who slaughtered the village to comfort the 1,000 compatriots who have been killed. Meng Qingshan gave two orders in a row before he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, although the order to strengthen the vigilance on the edge of the base area was issued, this operation seemed to be the beginning of the Japanese army, although the Japanese army did not use large forces, but a squadron and a squadron dispatched to attack the villages in the territory of the Anti-Japanese Union, and the Japanese attack did not stop there. In less than a week, more than 10 villages on the edge of the entire North Manchurian region were attacked by the Japanese army, killing and wounding more than 3,000 soldiers and civilians.

In fact, this can't be blamed on the intelligence department, it's really the little devil who is too cunning. Gu Shoufu, the newly appointed commander of the North Manchurian Army, faced with the situation of the broken troops stationed in North Manchuria, seriously analyzed and summed up the reasons for the various mistakes of his former commander, the most important of which was the problem of intelligence.

Therefore, after many years of studying the tactics of the Eighth Route Army in Guannai, he carried out "guerrilla tactics" against the entire North Manchurian region against the Anti-Japanese Union, of course, the operation in the Sanjiang area was only their personal vent. This tactic was handed over to General Umezu Mijiro, commander-in-chief of the Kwantung Army, and it can be said that he was very concerned, and for this reason, a large number of intelligence personnel were specially drawn from the special high-tech section of the Kwantung Army Headquarters to help Gu Shouo and conduct counter-espionage warfare in Harbin. In the end, a large number of intelligence officers deployed by the Anti-Japanese Federation in Harbin fell into the clutches of devils. Even if some intelligence agents grasp this plan, it will be difficult for them to evade the layers of inspection at the gate of Harbin and take the information out of the city.

However, seeing that the Japanese army's plan was about to succeed, the chief of the Harbin Intelligence Section risked his life by slashing his thigh with a knife, sewing the information into his own flesh, gritting his teeth and taking it out of Harbin, and handing it over to a liaison office set up by the Intelligence Department outside the city.

The successive sneak attacks made the people in the villages of the North Manchurian base area panic, and everyone separately asked the main force to send troops to station, and fortunately, the headquarters had several main divisions that successively defeated the Japanese troops who withdrew from the city several times, and the Japanese troops no longer dared to go out of the city and had to retreat into the city. However, as far as the eye can see, there are only two main regiments and one independent regiment in the entire Fourth Army subdivision, and how can there be so many troops, and the strength of the Japanese puppet army in the entire Xiajiang area still has an absolute advantage, while the main forces of the Fourth Military Region are all hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, and only a few guerrillas and small units are quietly moving outside the mountains.

Unable to get the protection of the main force, the common people in the Xiajiang area began to become uneasy, and gradually it was spread that there was no main force in the Xiajiang area at all, and that the Anti-Japanese Federation had all crossed the river to join the Soviet army, and what they said before was all a lie; when the common people were confused by this group of people, they began to disobey the various construction and measures in the base areas, and even some villages returned to the arms of the Japanese army under the leadership of some traitors, and even some ruffians and hooligans swaggered and deceived under the banner of the Anti-Japanese Federation. The original guerrilla zone has completely become an enemy-occupied zone, and the former base area has become a guerrilla zone. In less than a week, Meng Qingshan and others were surprised to find that the base area of the Fourth Army Division had shrunk by at least one-fifth under the terror of the Japanese army.

For this reason, Meng Qingshan telegraphed that the Fourth Military Region must rescue Sun Jianwen, and at the same time take the initiative to attack and beat him up for the sake of the people, so that the people in the Sanjiang area know that the Anti-Japanese Federation had not abandoned them, and at the same time strictly ordered the Fourth Military Region to completely eliminate those who committed crimes under the banner of the Anti-Japanese Federation.

The patriotic gentleman Sun Jianwen, known as "Sun Baye", opened a woodyard in Hengdao Linzi, secretly set up a secret military material transfer station for the anti-Japanese coalition forces, and repeatedly supported the Fourth Army of the anti-Japanese coalition army and other troops in food, clothing, medicine, salt, ammunition, etc. Collecting intelligence and reporting on the anti-union attack on the Japanese puppet army, he was deeply loved by the leaders and fighters of the anti-union forces.

"What the hell is this little devil going to do, commander-in-chief, why did they evacuate as soon as they saw our large troops, I feel weird, didn't the Japanese army chase us in the past? How is the position reversed now. Yang Jingyu asked suspiciously.

"This is also a headache for me, I thought I could read a good Spring Festival, but this little devil didn't let us get his wish, and actually played guerrilla warfare with us, we are not as good as the little devil in terms of military literacy, but in terms of guerrilla warfare, we are his ancestors." Meng Qingshan looked at the map of the Japanese army's attacks on the base areas these days, first starting from Laodaogou in the Xiajiang area, and then facing harassment in the entire North Manchurian region.
