"Who is slowing down the march of Kato's division!" Okamura Neji stared at the chief of staff and asked.
"A new regiment of the Eighth Route Army!" the chief of staff replied affirmatively.
Pointing to the map, he introduced: "The Eighth Route Army only has this new regiment in this area. It has strong combat effectiveness and well-equipped equipment. One regiment has more than one main division. If they try their best to block Kato's division, not to mention half a month.
It could be as long as twenty days, or even longer than a month!"
Okamura Neji frowned and cursed loudly: "Bagya Road, why is it this new group again!"
"What I heard the most during this period was this new regiment... When the front army launched this large-scale raid, several times when it was about to make a breakthrough, it was this new regiment that suddenly appeared to cause trouble and disrupted the imperial army.
The army’s plan!”
After saying that, Okamura Neji stared at the map and fell into deep thought.
"Now take two steps!" Neji Okamura suddenly made a decision and ordered.
"First, immediately compile the statistics on the front army's methods and countermeasures for dealing with the Eighth Route Army's guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare, and send them to the commander of the Kato Division. At the same time, order the aviation force to increase the air cover for the Kato Division!"
"Second, order the Special High School Section to start taking action immediately: now the Jinsui Army has bordered the Eighth Route Army. In two days, the Jinsui Army will follow the Imperial Army and enter the so-called base area of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army!"
"As long as we can quickly create conflicts among them and make them antagonize. In order to defend the base area, the New Regiment can only put most of its energy on the Jinsui Army, thereby reducing the pressure on the Kato Division!"
"We are working on the frontal battlefield and the intelligence battlefield at the same time, trying to get the Kato division to pass through the new regiment's base area and join the battlefield as soon as possible!"
Hongyuan Village, a village that the Japanese troops passed through yesterday afternoon.
Before dawn in the morning, the guerrillas came back from the village.
Once the safety of the village is confirmed, the people who have been hiding in the mountains for nearly two days can come back.
Spring plowing is coming in more than a month, and now every household is preparing for spring plowing. If people stay outside for one more day, less fertilizer may be needed for spring plowing, which will ultimately affect the yield of the autumn harvest.
Therefore, the people who were hiding from the Japs outside were very anxious. After hearing that the Japs had left the village, they immediately encouraged the guerrillas in the village to go back and investigate the situation.
"Captain, the village seems to be safe, there is no movement!" the guerrillas walking in front said with certainty.
The guerrilla leader who came down from the main force did not relax his vigilance: "Don't be careless. There are more than 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops passing by the village. Who knows if there will be some stragglers left in the village!"
Soon, a group of more than a dozen people arrived at the entrance of the village.
It was already daylight. The guerrillas who had grown up in the village did not enter directly from the village entrance, but climbed directly through the earthen wall next to the village entrance. In this way, even if there were enemies in the village, they could easily escape.
.
Soon, more than a dozen people searched the entire village. As expected at the beginning, there was no one in the village.
"Let's go to the mountains to pick up the folks back home!" the captain ordered with a sigh of relief.
Before more than a dozen people reached the village entrance, the sentry guarding the village entrance ran over panting.
"Captain, someone is coming towards the village, it seems like an army!"
"Hide and prepare to fight!" the guerrilla leader subconsciously ordered.
The sentry quickly added: "They are not little devils, nor are they puppet soldiers. Look at the uniforms and they are the Jinsui Army!"
"Xiao Zhang, you stay and hide in the village just in case. Others follow me to the entrance of the village to see what these Jinsui troops want to do!" The captain hesitated for a few seconds and then changed the order.
Soon, a dozen guerrillas were confronting a platoon of Jinsui Army!
The platoon leader of the Jinsui Army who led the team hung a submachine gun, pointed it at a dozen guerrillas, and shouted: "According to the order from Shangfeng, from now on, this place is under the control of our Jinsui Army. All the Eighth Route Army in the area will surrender and accept
Our Jinsui Army reorganizes, otherwise, our Jinsui Army will treat you as bandits and kill you! After all, you have no establishment in the World War II zone and Chongqing. If you know what you are doing, put down your weapons immediately!"
The dozen or so team members all looked at the captain nervously.
At one time, more than thirty guns were pointed at them. The other party was a regular army, and they were giving orders in the name of the government, and everyone should obey them both emotionally and rationally.
Just when the captain was hesitant and ready to argue, the Jinsui Army platoon leader suddenly held a submachine gun in his hand.
Before the captain could warn him, gunfire rang out.
A light machine gun, a submachine gun, and more than thirty rifles were fired at the same time. In less than five seconds, a dozen guerrillas, including the captain, were all beaten to a pulp.
"Take away all their weapons and ammunition and retreat. I didn't expect the equipment of the Eighth Route Army guerrillas to be so good. They even have the 38-meter cover of the little devil!" the platoon leader of the Jinsui Army ordered decisively.
Soon, they disappeared at the entrance of the village.
It was only then that a figure flashed out of the village. After confirming that all the dozen team members at the entrance of the village were not breathing, he rushed out of the village.
This figure is Xiao Zhang, whom the captain left in the village. He saw everything that just happened at the entrance of the village.
The Jinsui Army spared the little devils and beat their own people. Such an important matter must be reported immediately.
But he didn't expect that the Jinsui Army he saw in front of him was not the real Jinsui Army, but the Japanese Special High School Action Team pretending to be one.
In a town more than ten kilometers away, the Jinsui Army, which was following the Japanese army, left a battalion here as they continued to advance toward Linfen City.
Because this town is on the edge of the highway and can radiate dozens of surrounding villages, the New Regiment also formed a garrison company here.
After the Japanese army left, the garrison company returned to the town as the vanguard.
However, the Jinsui Army had already set up checkpoints at the entrance of the town.
The garrison company of more than ninety people was blocked directly from the town.
Not only that, hundreds of Jinsui troops suddenly appeared at the entrance of the town, which was deserted just now, and surrounded the garrison company from all directions.
"Which of you is taking the lead, please stand up and speak!" The battalion commander of the Jinsui Army, who held the rank of lieutenant colonel, walked out with an arrogant look.
"I am the company commander. This is where our garrison company is stationed. Why don't you let us in... Also, this is our Eighth Route Army base. Why do your Jinsui Army come in? Isn't this picking peaches?!" Company Commander
Not to be outdone, he walked out.
He is a platoon leader from the main force. He has fought hard battles and killed imps. He has seen all kinds of postures and does not take the opponent lightly at all!
With a wave of his hand, he ordered: "Comrades, get ready for battle!"
