For a long time, the most difficult point for the Japanese army to deal with the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the occupied area was to completely avoid the leakage of information.

Often, the Japanese puppet army has not made any moves, and has even just walked out of the county town and towns, and the sweeping troops have not yet arrived at the base of the Eighth Route Army, and the news has already been spread.

The Eighth Route Army, which was already good at guerrilla warfare and sports warfare, quickly moved ahead of schedule, and when the encirclement of the devils came over, it was also empty.

In the end, the devil mobilized the people, and the bamboo basket was empty.

Such failures have accumulated too much, and the Japanese army hated the troops of the Eighth Route Army so much, but they were helpless, so they didn't bother to pay attention to it.

After all, the military focus of the Japanese invasion of China has always been on the national army in the early stage.

As for the scarcity of ammunition and backward equipment, in the description of the Japanese army, it looks like a group of teams called Hanako.

In the eyes of the Japanese army, it was nothing more than a group of peasant organizations.

It was not until after the Battle of the Hundred Regiments that the Eighth Route Army was about to show its edge, which caused great panic among the Japanese army, and even gradually shifted the focus of military strikes to the troops of the Eighth Route Army.

But it still could not eliminate the stubborn fighting will of the Eighth Route Army troops in the occupied area.

As a result, the Japanese army successfully fell into an unsolvable and comical loop.

Fight eight ways, fail, the majesty of the empire is damaged.

Then the persimmon picks the soft pinch first, and by the way, redeems the majesty of the setback in the Eighth Route Army.

Compared with the Eighth Route Army, which fought guerrilla warfare and movement warfare all over the mountains and fields behind enemy lines, it was so angry that the little devils were screaming and screaming.

It was clear that the Japanese officers preferred to fight the Nationalist troops on the frontal battlefield.

The reason is simple, it's easy to fight.

This national army can't use its brains, or it can't play yin, it's obviously not the opponent of our imperial troops, so it has to be an iron-headed baby, blindly doing a frontal attack, just shopping in the pit and looking for.

After easily defeating the Nationalist army in the battle and regaining the power of the Great Japanese Empire.

The Japanese army would consolidate the occupied area, then mobilize forces, and then sweep the Eighth Route Army base in the occupied area.

But the sweep failed again, and it still failed to destroy the Eight Roads.

even suffered a big loss when sweeping the base area of the Eighth Route Army.

There is no trick, the devil can only turn around again and fight the national army on the frontal battlefield to show the strength of his great Japanese empire!

To put it another way, the Eighth Route Army is like a tough bamboo in the eyes of the devil, and the National Army is a whetstone.

The devil took a knife to chop the bamboo, chopping and chopping, and the knife was dull, so he found the national army, sharpened the knife, and then turned around again and continued to chop the bamboo of the Eighth Route Army.

It's like right now.

The devil originally wanted to destroy the Eighth Route Army troops in the Taihang area in the 412 sweep.

As a result, not to mention the failure, I also touched the ashes of my nose.

suffered a big loss at the hands of the Separate Regiment.

The devils are out of line, and the failure of the sweep has made the army's morale unstable, and the anti-Japanese sentiment of the Chinese people in the occupied areas has risen even more, and it is necessary to fight a big victory to deter the people and stabilize law and order.

So the devil had just finished fighting the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang base area, retreated after defeat, turned around and went directly to Jinnan.

The national army in Zhongtiao Mountain was somewhat caught off guard by this.

The Nakajo Yamanechi area, which had been held for four years, was quickly defeated by the national army, and all positions were lost.

Occupied Zhongtiao Mountain, squeezed out the Central Army, stabilized the little devils in the southbound passage, and after resting, they refocused on the Eighth Route Army in the occupied area.

The devil continues to swing in this hilarious loop.

When Yoshio Shinozuka's order was conveyed by the headquarters.

The Japanese forces quickly moved into action and gradually moved closer to the base area of the Independent Regiment.

Naturally, the movements of the Japanese army could not be concealed from the eyes and ears of the independent regiment and the secret scouts, and the news had already reached Kong Jie's headquarters before the devils and the puppet army even left the county town and villages.

And Kong Jie's news channel can be more than one.

There is news from within the enemy's Ministry of Works.

There is news from the martial arts team.

There is also the movement that the people noticed when they entered the county seat.

As the Eighth Route Army, which has the support of the masses, the simple and intelligent people have always been a very important part of the transmission of information in terms of information collection.

The most surprising thing is.

In addition to the eyes and ears of the people and the independent regiment.

Some puppet armies that had been rebelled against a long time ago also passed on the news.

Even the devil squadron leader Miki Ichiro, who has business dealings with Kong Jie, and the puppet army company commander Qian Dekai.

The two also sent the news over in order to curry favor with Kong Jie.

And in the intelligence, it was stated that the Japanese troops were gradually moving closer to the perimeter of your independent regiment base area.

As a result, the contest between the independent regiment and the Japanese puppet army can already be seen from the intelligence alone.

The People's Independent Regiment is a monolith, and it has a broad public base, and its ears and eyes are almost widely spread around Yangquan.

What about the Japanese puppet army!

The intelligence news was heard from all sides, and the puppet army fell at both ends.

Because of the secret business smuggling, the Japanese army, who was gradually paralyzed by Kong Jie, also turned his elbow outward.

Such a little devil is just that, in the original words of Head Kong:

"Comrades, just from this intelligence gathering, everyone can also see that this little devil has already been a strong foreign officer."

"Even Japanese people like Miki Ichiro help us deliver the news, what reason do we have not to defeat these little devils of law and order who are not even second-rate troops?"

……

Three days.

According to Kong Jie's original plan, the first batch of teams, divided into six routes, set off from the base area with great fanfare and headed south.

This first batch of troops was temporarily combined, a small part of which was composed of soldiers of Shen Quan's Second Regiment, and most of them were local comrades and militia units such as the county brigade.

At the moment, in order to test the little devils, the team goes first.

There are six roads in total, and although it is a lot of fanfare, the warriors will still rely on the terrain to move forward in stealth.

In a short time, the fighters who were responsible for guarding the commanding heights waved their military flags and transmitted messages.

"Company Commander Zhang, there is a situation, the devil's plane has arrived!"

The comrades who led the county brigade said to the commander of the third company of the second regiment.

Company Commander Zhang naturally understood the message transmitted by the military flag, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if there is no accident, this is just the vanguard reconnaissance plane of the little devil, and it is here to reconnoiter the situation, but just in case, beware of the devil mixing fighters in the reconnaissance plane, everyone should hide it." ”

While ordering the troops to hide, Company Commander Zhang was completely unkind to the devil's plane.

There was even a hint of anticipation on his face, and he turned his head to the platoon leader next to him and said, "Is the anti-aircraft machine gun mounted?" ”

The platoon commander said: "Don't worry, the company commander is all ready." ”

Company Commander Zhang nodded, "After the plane enters the firing range, it fires directly, even if it is a devil's reconnaissance plane, it can shoot down one by one!" ”

"Yes!"

When the platoon commander turned around to make arrangements, Company Commander Zhang said with a smile: "Our regiment commander has long guessed that the devils are likely to send planes to sneak attack, so our advance team also brought a few anti-aircraft machine guns in their hands, which are used to deal with the devil's planes." ”

Tutu Tu –

As the roar of the plane's engines came from far and near, the devil's three vanguard reconnaissance planes flew over Company Commander Zhang and his party.

The fighters, who had long been ready to attack, quickly pulled the trigger and fired at the flying reconnaissance plane with anti-aircraft machine guns.

Speaking of which, these anti-aircraft machine guns were snatched from the planes that the devils had crashed on, and they were really the only weapons to deal with the planes of the little devils in the same way as they were to deal with them.

The devil pilot, who was flying over the sky with a reconnaissance plane, was also a little confused.

The devil scouts used binoculars to detect the moving Eighth Route Army troops on the ground below.

When their planes arrived quickly, these Eighth Route Army Corps seemed to disappear to the ground all at once.

In order to be able to detect the target situation on the ground more clearly, the devil pilot lowered the altitude of the plane quite a bit.

It was already close to flying at a low altitude, and it was only six or seven hundred meters above the ground.

Then, before the devil pilots and observers had time to come to their senses, several anti-aircraft machine gun fire points that had been set up on the ground suddenly erupted and strafed at the devil planes in mid-air.

After a period of scramble, three reconnaissance planes of the devils whizzed over the fighters.

One of the planes was damaged in the tail, blazing, smoke rising, gradually losing its balance, and then gradually spinning and flying for seven or eight hundred meters, and then plunged headlong into the foothills in the distance.

Boom –

There was a violent explosion in the fierce kiss between the plane and the earth.

Due to the suddenness of the incident and the fact that it was flying at a low altitude, the pilots and observers of the devils did not even have time to parachute.

The other two planes were also swept away by some bullets, but fortunately, the Devil reconnaissance plane, which was only slightly damaged, quickly fled in panic on the face of the Devil pilot.

In the subsequent reconnaissance, the two devil pilots, who realized that the Eighth Route Army had strong air defense in their hands, no longer dared to be careless, and maintained a high altitude throughout the reconnaissance process, using binoculars to reconnoiter the ground.

The information thus detected is not very detailed.

But the general movements of the Eighth Route Army can still be seen.

"The Eighth Route Army is obviously preparing for large-scale reinforcements to Zhongtiao Mountain, and our reconnaissance aircraft has detected the situation, and as many as six Route and Eighth Route Army troops are rapidly moving south!"

The news quickly reached the headquarters of Yoshio Shinozuka's First Army.

When he learned that during the investigation, Yoshio Shinozuka, who had actually damaged a reconnaissance plane, had a gloomy face.

After a while, Yoshio Shinozuka, who had made up his mind, did not hesitate anymore and gave the order directly:

"The flying team is on standby for air reinforcements."

"With Yangquan as the central point, the advancing troops of all directions will immediately advance to the south of the independent regiment's roots, and stop these dirt roads for me!"

"Hey!"

At this time, it is seen from the perspective of the heavens.

The Sixth Route Army of the Eighth Route Army quickly moved south in several directions.

To the east of the base area, the surrounding counties and towns of the Japanese army, mainly Yangquan, Tanxian, Zhangzhuang, Taigu and other places, the Japanese puppet army quickly advanced to the southwest in an attempt to stop the troops of the Eighth Route Army moving south.

The reconnaissance troops of the two sides took the lead in clashing in a mountainous area east of Taihang and north of the base area of the Independent Regiment......
