In fact, Okamura had also suspected that the Eight Roads had deliberately made such a big disturbance in Licheng, and he had also speculated about what the intentions of the Eight Roads were.

What kind of military parade was held in Licheng with such blatantness and fanfare, as if he was afraid that the Japanese army would not know the situation.

It's not that Hachiro doesn't know how powerful he is with the Imperial Japanese Air Force.

There's something wrong with that!

But Okamura couldn't guess the reason after all, and in addition, this Li City, as one of the former base camps of the Japanese army, was now captured by the Eighth Route Army in a very high-profile manner, and a military parade was held in the city.

In such a situation, if the Japanese army turned a deaf ear, and even the flying troops did not dare to send out to attack.

The entire Chinese dispatch of the Japanese army was afraid that it would be ridiculed.

The power of the Imperial Army will be gone.

Okamura can't lose this face, let alone be this sinner.

So he finally made up his mind that no matter what conspiracy the Eighth Route Army was brewing in Licheng, he would not use conventional means to use infantry to attack, but he would use the Empire's aviation to bomb.

All at once.

Fighter planes from North, Central, and East China, including the Japanese army and navy, will be mobilized and mobilized.

Without any spare hands, a large number of bombs and incendiary bombs were all thrown into Li Cheng, covering them with indiscriminate firepower, and together with his entire Li City, he was directly plunged into a sea of fire.

In this regard, Okamura believes that even if Hachiro guessed that he might use air forces to carry out air raids, it was absolutely impossible to guess that he would make such a determination to mobilize such an exaggerated air force to carry out a massacre bombing.

——Under the cover of all-round indiscriminate firepower, any trap you have, all of them will be wiped out!

Okamura also wanted to finally pull back the game, and with the might of the Imperial Japanese Air Force, he could re-deter the anti-Japanese armed forces that had become increasingly active over the years, and even bordered on madness.

Yes, it's bordering on madness.

Maybe it's because the Eighth Route Army is making too much trouble behind enemy lines.

Together with some Jin Sui Army troops around the Eighth Route Army, they were also ready to move.

For example, the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army near a detachment has dared to take the initiative to call out the Japanese army for most of the past half a year, and even launched an attack on the local occupied areas of the devils.

Yang Chongshan, the commander of the 57th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, even created a precedent for the Jin Sui Army.

What for?

The first person to take the initiative to attack the area occupied by the Japanese army and recover the county seat.

This made Lao Yang very happy.

In order to prepare for his 57th Regiment's attack on the county seat of the devil, a detachment of the Eighth Route Army launched an attack on several nearby county towns, resulting in the empty strength of the county seat where the 57th Regiment was preparing to attack after sending reinforcements.

The 57th Regiment took advantage of the weakness and successfully captured the county seat.

In this way, the first combat regiment of the Jin Sui Army to recover the lost territory and recover the homeland appeared, and the regiment commander - Yang Chongshan!

The glamorous old Yang soon occupied the major pages of the newspapers issued by the Jin Suijun.

The Jin Suijun also boasted about this, and Chief Yan even personally came forward to award a medal to Yang Chongshan.

Yang Chongshan, who was originally only a lieutenant colonel, was also promoted to colonel.

For a while, there was no difference in the limelight.

actually compared the limelight of Chu Yunfei, the head of the 358th Regiment of the elite main force of the Jin Sui Army.

This made Yang Chongshan only sigh, he still had to follow Captain Kong!

Today's 57th Regiment is strong and strong, the size of the army has six or seven thousand people, and two whole artillery battalions have been pulled, whether it is the scale of the troops or the configuration of artillery fire, it is only stronger than the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army.

Captain Yang, who has been competing with Chu Yunfei, is very addicted, and now he is pressing him Chu Yunfei in all aspects, not to mention how energetic he is.

The shrewd Yang Chongshan turned around and took the initiative to apply to the Commander's Department of the Second War Zone, what to apply for? Apply to lead the troops to be stationed in the fortified area near the Iron Triangle, make preparations in advance, and carry out the garrison of troops and the construction of fortifications.

In the report, Regiment Commander Yang swore an oath: "The Eighth Route Army has risen rapidly over the years, and sooner or later it will become a big problem for our henchmen." I should make arrangements as early as possible, prepare in advance, and be vigilant about the movements of the Eighth Route Army at any time! ”

Listen, how good it is!

Commander Yan was greatly moved, and specially ordered another batch of arms to be allocated to the 57th Regiment.

The 57th Regiment was thus settled and stationed near the Iron Triangle.

In this regard, Qian Dekai, the former commander of the first battalion of the 57th Regiment who was the intermediary between the 57th Regiment and the Independent Regiment, and the current deputy commander of the 57th Regiment, asked: "Tuanzuo, you don't really want to deal with the Eighth Road, right?" ”

Yang Chongshan suddenly scolded: "Bah, bah, Lao Tzu is not a birthday guy hanging, he thinks his life is long, what to do with Balu?"

I just went to fight devils, and I didn't dare to mess with devils! ”

"Then why did you apply to the Governor's Department for ......?"

"Stupid, don't you still understand the current situation?

After the fiasco of the Japanese army's May Day Sweep, the Eighth Route Army was obviously the most powerful armed force in the entire North China.

We chose the location near the Iron Triangle of the Eighth Route Army, which has a lot of advantages, first, the transportation is more convenient, and it is convenient for us to conduct business with the Eighth Route Army.

You don't know all these years, the iron triangle, especially the business of Kong Jie's team, is simply a mess, and their caravans even have hundreds, almost affecting nearly half of China, and their shadows are everywhere.

Let's follow behind the buttocks, even if we drink some soup, then we can make a lot of money, why not?

Besides, let's hide around the base of the Eighth Route Army, this little devil is afraid of the strength of the Eighth Route Army, and he doesn't dare to move us.

This is equivalent to finding a protective umbrella for our 57th regiment, is there a more profitable deal than this? ”

Qian Dekai said worriedly: "Tuanzuo, what you said is not bad at all, but our station is too close to the Eighth Route Army, in case of a conflict in the future, with the combat effectiveness of this iron triangle, won't we be cleaned up at any time?" ”

Qian Dekai said this very sincerely.

Don't look at his 57th Regiment is now strong and strong, with six or seven thousand troops, as well as two artillery battalions, but if he really comes to the front of the Iron Triangle, I'm afraid it won't even be enough to stuff people's teeth.

The full field division of the devils was completely defeated.

A small 57 regiment is a fart!

In this regard, Yang Chongshan said with a confident face: "Just put your heart in your stomach, when it comes to that time, Lao Tzu doesn't need the Eighth Route Army to do it alone, and directly leads our brothers to take the initiative to pass."

Not surrender.

What for?

Let's take the initiative to cast eight roads!

I have more than 7,000 troops under the command of Yang someone, who are well-equipped and complete, and such a large anti-Japanese armed force was sent over in vain, is this a good enough name?

The Eighth Route Army can't treat me badly, right?

Besides, the relationship between our 57th Regiment and the Eighth Route Army over the years has been very close, and there have been many joint operations, plus the face of Captain Kong, we can't lose it after all! ”

"Ah???h

Qian Dekai was directly dumbfounded, even if he was a middleman, he took benefits at both ends, but he never thought of leaving the Jin Suijun and switching to the Eighth Road, he didn't expect his own group seat to be so far away.

Yang Chongshan also said what was in his heart at this time: "Old Qian, to tell the truth, judging from the performance of the Eighth Route Army over the years, do you think that after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, who will win more between us and the Eighth Route Army?" ”

Qian had to open the silence.

If he had done it before, he might have been able to be confident without hesitation, but now...... It's hard to say!

Yang Chongshan said: "No one can say the future situation, but there is one thing that Yang sees very clearly, the people around us are all towards the Eighth Route Army, not to mention the common people, even the old lady in my family is full of good words about the Eighth Route Army, those people in our base area, if we don't stop them, I'm afraid that they would have run away long ago and transferred to live in the base area of the Eighth Route Army."

I heard that in the base area of the Eighth Route Army, the people were arranged to live in the area, and they were also arranged to work, and they cared for and asked for warmth from time to time. ”

"Old Qian, if you want me to say that no matter how this war goes, it depends on people after all, but the current situation is that all these people have run to the side of the Eighth Route Army, do you think we can still win this battle?"

The words of deafening and feeding, the money that has been said to be open for a long time and cannot return to his senses.

Yang Chongshan was already immersed in his own reverie...... "When the time comes, will you fight with Captain Kong, or do business with Captain Kong?"

Well, let's do business, make more money, and enjoy life in the rear, no more than a hundred times better than being scared on the front line? ”

……

In addition to the Jin Sui Army, including some local armies, they also joined the camp of attacking the Japanese army under the stimulus of the Eighth Route Army's active attack on the Japanese army and winning victory after victory.

The devil seems to have become a soft persimmon for a while, and anyone can come up and pinch two handfuls.

Until bandits from all over the country came out in a big way, even specifically for the little devils.

This united and united front of the whole nation of the Chinese nation against Japan has been vividly interpreted.

I don't know who leaked the news, most likely from the bandits who reformed from Xie Baoqing and his party.

- As long as you can fight devils and win the vote, when you reach the team of the Eighth Route Army, Captain Kong will reuse it.

Speaking of Xie Baoqing, I have to envy him, he was a bandit who robbed his house at the beginning, the big boss of Heiyun Village, with more than 100 minions, living a hard life of occupying the mountain as the king, on the surface of the scenery, but in fact, he was hungry for two meals in three days.

is also carrying a body of infamy, today he was suppressed by the Jin Sui army, and tomorrow he was suppressed by the Japanese army, scurrying around in the mountains, and hiding XZ like a mouse.

But since he joined the Eighth Route Army, he followed Kong Jieming.

I heard that there are thousands of people under his command now.

It's a stunning view!

Under such an atmosphere, the bandits who occupied the mountains in various places raised their weapons one after another and aimed their spearheads at the Japanese puppet army.

What for?

- Kill devils, cut down the puppet army, get a name, and follow the captain of the Kong detachment.

During the years of artillery fire, the people were struggling to make a living, and many refugees had no way out, so they were forced to go up to the mountains to become bandits, robbing homes and houses to survive.

There may not be many bandits, but they can't stand the thousands of famous mountains and rivers in China, and the bandits nested in various places are added together, which is an exaggerated number.

Especially like Ludi.

It is even more troublesome.

The bandits, who were like swarms, seemed to have found their goals in life, and they turned their guns one after another to specifically provoke the Japanese puppet army to fight.

Those who ambushed, knocked on stuffy sticks, tied up tickets, went into the county town and set fire to the granaries, and planted bombs......

Not to mention, these robbers all have the potential to be "special forces", they are simply pervasive and ubiquitous, but wherever the Japanese army exists, they are there, and the little devils are tossed enough.

The losses in various places were added together, and after the data came out, it actually made the Japanese side gasp.

The losses brought by the bandits in these places to the Japanese army were no less than a large-scale battle.

In this way, even the bandits knew about the anti-Japanese devils, not to mention the rest of the armed forces, the local armed forces of the Eighth Route Army, the militia units, and some local units of the National Army participated in it.

The anti-Japanese armed forces on the entire Sino-Japanese battlefield became extremely radical and active.

The old devil Okamura's nose is almost crooked.

Even if the Eighth Route Army is making trouble, these damn bandits are rampant to this point.

Is it true that no one takes the majesty of the Japanese Empire in his eyes anymore?

Then there was depression, Okamura always felt as if there was a big black hand behind the scenes, and he didn't know which bastard it was.

Sneeze –

The headquarters of the first team, Kong Jie sneezed fiercely, wondering in his heart, could it be that he tossed too much yesterday, his body was weak, the cold wind was blowing, and he caught a cold?

He then looked at Xie Baoqing, who was standing in front of him and smiled, and said happily: "Old Xie, there are really you, so many bandits, they are still mobilized by you!" ”

Xie Baoqing smirked: "Hehe, detachment leader, you don't know this, the world is as black as bandits!" What they think in their hearts, we know too well in our hearts.

As long as we kill the devil and have a petition to vote, when we get to our territory, we have money to earn and food to eat, and Comrade Balu will give us a chance to reform and start anew.

Not to mention that there are examples of people like me who are alive and well! ”

It turned out that the initiator behind this incident was Kong Jie.

Kong Jie thought at that time that through Xie Baoqing, he could contact bandits from all over the country and actively call on these bandits to resist Japan.

First, it can eliminate the problem of banditry, and second, it can correctly guide these armed forces into the anti-Japanese struggle.

So these days, a detachment, including the propaganda departments of the Eighth Route Army, are assisting and publicizing this matter everywhere.

He called on the bandits to recognize the status quo, turn their guns, and fight the Japanese invaders.

The final effect was better than Kong Jie's expectations.

Under the overwhelming attacks of the bandits, even the little devils are a little unbearable.

"However, Lao Xie, there is one thing you have to make clear to the bandits who dare to come to the city, according to your old rules, go to the mine to work first, and after correcting your thinking, I welcome those who are willing to stay in the base area to earn money and live, and those who are willing to join the army are also allowed.

Without going through this process, I don't dare to use people with confidence. ”

Kong Jie said that what he was most afraid of was a few rat droppings spoiling a pot of soup.

Xie Baoqing immediately said: "Please rest assured, the detachment leader, they will definitely be able to figure it out!" ”

This matter was settled.
