With Lao Feng and Lao Gao's experience in counter-espionage and intelligence work, I feel that it is too important to see this detailed guiding document of the Japanese army! This had to be sent to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the Northern Bureau immediately, and this thing had never even been seen by the Central Social Affairs Department in Yan'an, because this document specifically stated that it was only for the reference of the Japanese army's intelligence department, and even the ordinary field troops and garrison troops were not qualified to see it.

Such an important document is not the only astonishing document found this time, there is also a large stack of investigation reports, all of which are the analysis reports on the combat situation and the situation of the troops in the second sub-divisions of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei No. 1 and No. 11 subdivisions in northwestern Hebei, and the report is divided into two parts, one part is the battle report submitted by the Japanese units participating in the war, which clearly states the place of engagement with the Eighth Route Army, the use of troops, the use of troops by the Eighth Route Army, the battlefield damage of both sides, the weapons used, the consumption of ammunition, and so on.

From 1941 to June 1943, almost all of the Japanese army's operations in northwestern Hebei were included in this report. The other half of the report is a post-mortem investigation conducted by the North China Intelligence Department under Beiping into the battles between the two sides, which, to put it bluntly, is a check and investigation of the army's war reports.

For example, Yang Bangzi and the others saw a comparative report on the 36th Division's 1943 spring raid, and the 222nd Wing reported that the troops of the 11th Division of the Eighth Route Army of the Red Bandits had fought seven times at or above the level of the Eighth Route Army, including three battles at the brigade level, the Battle of Baigou, battlefield statistics, thousands of corpses of the Eighth Road, 16 people killed and 67 wounded on our side, and so on.

The intelligence officers who accompanied the army to hide their true identities reported that the actual 222nd Wing was killed in the Battle of Baigou 331. Two hundred and sixty-two people were wounded. Lost four mountain artillery. Baggage and materials were almost completely lost.

Later, there is a comparative battle report of the first Yinfang offensive and defensive battle and the battle of Xiaotiangou, each time the field troops reported no more than 100 battle losses, and the number of annihilated Eighth Route Army was more than 1,000 people, and the analysis report of the intelligence personnel was much more realistic, and the casualties of the Japanese army were similar to those of Yang Bangzi.

This shows that the Japanese army, which was unwilling to admit that it had been hit hard by the Eighth Route Army, still knew very well in private what kind of battle its field troops were fighting. The name of Yang Bangzi "Yang Daye" was marked, and next to it were a few small words - "The first bandit in the northwest mountainous area of Hebei Province".

Now Yang stick is proud! is called the first bandit by the devil, which is even more beautiful than being praised by Mr. Peng and Mr. Nie! This No. 1 title is not blindly sealed, it is the Japanese devil who was beaten and hated Yang Bangzi to the bone to give him this title!

When the old blind man saw this comparison report, he smiled, saying that in the Northeast back then, the little devils did not make a lot of self-deception.

The old blind man said that there used to be a foreigner named Vespa, and the old blind man knew this person. He was an Italian wandering in the Far East during World War I, who was recruited as a spy by the intelligence agencies of the Allied countries, and was later secretly retained by Zhang Zuolin, and became a Chinese citizen to help the Northeast Army collect intelligence on the Japanese army and the Soviet army.

After the 918 Incident, he began to work for the Japanese intelligence agencies under the coercion of the Japanese. Later, I was shocked by the atrocities of the Japanese army. Conscience found out and escaped in 1936, and the following year he wrote a book in Shanghai that exposed the crimes committed by the Japanese army in Northeast China to the whole world.

This person writes in the book that he used his status as a double agent to provide information on devils for the Northeast Volunteers. Once, according to the information he provided, a certain volunteer army attacked the Japanese Hengdaohezi station, and the Japanese army killed 143 people, (including 14 Russian accomplices) and captured 127 people (not all Japanese soldiers), while another volunteer army attacked the Japanese army stationed 100 kilometers away from Harbin, and the devil killed 134 people. 86 people were taken prisoner (not all of the prisoners were Japanese soldiers).

At this time, this Vespa had already agreed to do intelligence work for the Japanese army, and a few days later. He saw that the Japanese army's battle report read: "At 5:30 p.m. on April 12, near Hengdao Hezi, Soviet men blew up a train, killing 3 people and wounding 10 people. The thug was arrested. And after interrogation, this is a crime committed by the red bandits! On the evening of the 23rd. A group of 4,000 bandits attacked the Japanese detachment at Hengdao Hezi, and we fought fiercely with the bandits, and finally drove the bandits away. Killed 367 enemies. 211 prisoners. Four of our soldiers were killed in battle. 11 people were injured. ”

And the actual casualty figures that the Japanese intelligence officers privately told Vespa were basically the same as the numbers Vespa got from the Volunteers, and the official casualty figures of the Japanese army could be a hundred times different from the actual situation!

As for the shrinkage of the devil's war damage compared to the actual number, Vespa thinks that this is a very ridiculous thing about the Japanese nation. The Japanese firmly believe that they are a superior nation, a nation of gods. The other peoples are inferior to them, and they will not admit defeat or defeat in a war with any other people. Even if a lot of people died, they would hide the true number of deaths.

And as soon as they have won a few small victories, their propaganda tools are desperately croaking propaganda . If someone were to put together such a battle report from the Japanese army headquarters and the investigation report of the intelligence department, it would be a ridiculous joke!

Another example is that Vespa mentioned that according to the official newspaper sent to the newspaper by the commander of the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Harbin, Jiro Tamon: May 18, 1932. A team of 1,200 Japanese troops in a village a few kilometers away from Harbin, encountered a bandit, the enemy has more than 8,000 people, all equipped with Soviet equipment, the whole battle is extremely fierce, during many hand-to-hand combat, fortunately our army bravely, the bandits were finally repelled after the most reluctance, our army in the clean-up of the battlefield statistics: 1,214 enemy corpses, 763 wounded. Our losses were 14 dead. Wounded 34 people."

In this regard. Vespa reveals in the book: "But I know the truth. If I tell the truth. The above myth should be transformed into the following description: in the town of Songpu, a group of about 3,500 Japanese troops was attacked by a large group of volunteers, and the Japanese troops who were defeated by the volunteers were forced to retreat to the Songhua River and camp in a small fishing village by the river, waiting for the night to come. Under the cover of darkness, they crossed the river by boat, and the volunteers were heavily artillery, and only 1,676 of the 3,500 Japanese troops reached the opposite bank, and the supreme commander was wounded.

And the river was covered with the corpses of Japanese soldiers, and the tragic situation could not bear to look at directly.6 days later, when the Japanese reinforcements arrived. They found 907 corpses between the fishing village and the Songhua River, and each Japanese soldier was naked. The clothes were stripped naked. In the next 15 days. Another 531 corpses were recovered in the river, including the wounded and dead Japanese soldier Osa, who commanded the team. The Japanese command in Harbin received a letter from the volunteers. The letter said that 382 civilians, Japanese soldiers and 11 officers were captured. He proposed to exchange prisoners! This. The number of casualties in the Japanese war report has still been shrunk by more than 10 times."

Listening to the old blind man tell the story told by the Italians, everyone laughed back and forth, and then looked at the summary report at hand, it was indeed the same as in the story told by the old blind man, the difference between the number on the battle report and the actual number of injuries was more than ten times!

The old blind man also mentions an incident from before he was wounded, when he was ordered to contact a group of bearded and self-defense forces, just in time for a battle.

In 1934, the 63rd Wing of the Japanese Army stationed in Yilan County, near Harbin, was ordered to launch an attack on the Tulongshan Volunteers. and killed the captain of the wing, Asago Osaike.

After 1 month. The Japanese army used 10 planes to bomb Tulong Mountain for 2 days and 2 nights. In 1935, the 323 volunteers who withdrew from Tulong Mountain were surrounded by more than 2,000 Japanese troops in a small village 50 kilometers outside Qiqihar. Japanese planes dropped more than 100 bombs on the village, killing most of the residents. When the ammunition ran out, 60 volunteers carried bayonets. Sabre. The grenades attacked the Japanese barracks in the middle of the night, and all the volunteers were killed. A total of 157 Japanese soldiers were killed and 200 wounded.

Readers, I didn't expect to see Xie Wendong, the big bandit leader in the Lin Hai Snow Plain, so good! It can be seen that the anti-Japanese ideology at that time was indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and all strata hated the atrocities of the Japanese army, and on the other hand, it was also a little regrettable that our own anti-Japanese propaganda was not enough, no matter which direction Xie Wendong eventually went, but his anti-Japanese position back then was still worthy of affirmation.

When the old blind man finished telling the story, it could be regarded as a rest for a while, and he translated part of the report on the 11th Division, and then he realized that Mi Jiayuan's latent team was indeed assigned by the Baoding Japanese Army Special High-tech to carry out the assassination mission, and the target was Yang Bangzi!

also pointed out that if Mi Jiayuan's team is not successful, Captain Maruyama of Kawaguchi Town will lead the assassination team that has secretly infiltrated and go on the assassination mission again. It's tantamount to covering up the shame of the field troops' concealment of numbers!

This second group was made up of members of the secret liaison point in Shunping County, but unfortunately they were placed in the courtyard with their necks broken before they could sneak in.

Yang Bangzi, Lao Feng, Lao Gao, and the old blind man were translating the documents while passing them on, and they were made happy by these reports of the Japanese army, but when the old blind man picked up a piece of paper and looked at it, he only read a few lines, and the flesh in his heart jumped suddenly, and the relaxed expression on his face was frozen at once!
