First, the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army ambushed the Japanese railway line, and also took the opportunity to attack the Japanese advance strongholds, gun towers, and villages.
Then the New Second Regiment secretly dispatched a tank company and ambushed the Japanese transport train.
After the two wars ended, the situation between China and Japan in northwest Shanxi quietly changed.
For the Japanese troops stationed in Shanxi.
This battle was a huge failure. Not only were a large number of advanced strongholds prepared for a large-scale sweep shortly afterward by the independent regiment, but also three transportation lines were ambushed at once, and more than a thousand tons of military rations were lost.
Because food was not transported into the county.
The Japanese and puppet troops, who were already in urgent need of food, became increasingly trapped.
However, whether it was near Yangquan or Ping'an, the Eighth Route Army troops were obviously eyeing them. If they continued to try to transport food through the railway line, the Japanese army could not guarantee whether they would be ambushed again.
Therefore, the Japanese will not carry out large-scale military ration transportation for the time being until sufficient preparations are made and vigilance is strengthened along the way.
"These damn Eighth Route Army are really hateful. They first deliberately launched propaganda to lure a large number of victims to the occupied areas of the Japanese Empire."
"Then they took advantage of the chaos to ambush our army's transportation lines and took away military rations."
"General, the military rations transported at the moment have not arrived smoothly. The situation of our army is getting worse and worse. The remaining food is not enough for our Imperial Japanese Army. There is no extra food to continue to distribute to the victims, even if it is only superficial. work."
In Taiyuan City, Beichuan, the Japanese Chief of Staff of the First Army Headquarters in Shanxi, said angrily.
He continued his analysis:
"General, the Eighth Route Army troops lack mechanized transport vehicles. The large amount of military rations they intercepted this time cannot be transported back to their bases in a short time."
"Coupled with the fact that our army has blocked the road along the way and the checkpoints have been strengthened, if the Eighth Road transports food through, it will inevitably be discovered by our army."
"So what I can conclude is that most of the robbed food is still within our army's blockade area."
At this point, his words were generous: "General, this is the best time for us to regain the military rations and severely damage the Eighth Route Army."
"As for these victims, we can publish notices and explain them. We can tell them that all the food that was originally shipped to the occupied areas to be distributed to them was taken away by the Eighth Route Army. If they want to survive, they should quickly go to the Eighth Route Army base area."
"The Eighth Route Army will not let you go hungry."
"In this way, it not only solves the problem of disaster victims in the area occupied by our army, but also pushes these victims to the Eighth Route Army. Taking advantage of the chaos in the Eighth Route base area, our army can quickly attack, explore the news, take the opportunity to regain the lost military rations, and eliminate the Eighth Route Army. Hidden troops.”
After hearing this, Yoshio Shinozuka thought for a moment and agreed with Kitagawa's proposal.
"Xingxi, Mr. Beichuan, let me make arrangements for this matter quickly!"
"Hi!"
The efficiency of the little devils was quite good. After the orders from the devils headquarters were issued, the major Japanese counties and cities quickly made corresponding adjustments to their plans.
A large number of notices were posted on the streets and alleys of major counties and towns such as Yangquan, Shouyang, Pingan, Tanxian, Taikoo, and Taiyuan.
On the notice, Xiaoguizi published the content in Japanese as usual, plus a Chinese translation.
As for what is written.
It was nothing more than putting on a red face and scolding the Eighth Route Army for being despicable. The food that the Japanese Empire had originally prepared to help the victims survive the disaster was robbed by the Eighth Route Army troops during transportation.
Then the conversation changed.
The Japanese military command directly stated clearly:
The victims who continued to stay in the areas occupied by the Japanese Empire received less than half a grain of food. The only way to survive was to rush to the Eighth Route Army base area immediately.
The Eighth Route Army has snatched a large amount of military rations from the imperial troops. As long as you disaster victims pass by, you will definitely have food to eat.
The people are simple and simple-minded. In this war, chaos, natural and man-made disasters, as long as they can have food to eat.
There are many believers, and there are also unbelievers.
The sensible people secretly applauded.
The Eighth Route Army and the Japanese were sworn enemies, so it was common sense to rob the Japanese of their rations.
And the villagers are not stupid. Even if the little devil has this food, it is impossible to use it to relieve the victims.
There were also some people who were more confused and chose to believe what the little devil said. They packed up their simple packages and rushed towards the Eighth Route Army base area.
The Japanese had not given out porridge for several days. If they did not rush to the Eighth Route Army base area to have a few mouthfuls of food, they might starve to death.
The trick of the old Japanese Yoshio Shinozuka and Kitagawa really worked.
As for those victims who continued to stay in the areas occupied by the Japanese, they did not easily believe the notices issued by the Japanese and left.
The Japanese security forces would not be polite to the unarmed people and would directly use force to drive them away.
Although this matter was not the original intention of Yoshio Shinozuka and Kitagawa.
But the low-level Japanese officers who carried out the execution used excessive force.
But after hearing about this, Yoshio Shinozuka and Kitagawa still turned a blind eye and would not deliberately correct their mistakes at all.
The Japanese soldiers even fired machine guns at the civilians as a deterrent, frightening the civilians into beast-like shapes and scattering in the direction of the Eighth Route Army base area.
As for why the people are not popular.
The little devils who were ambushed by the Independent Regiment and lost millions of kilograms of military rations could no longer care about this.
They have never won the hearts and minds of the people, but under the pressure of force, didn't they still manage the occupied areas in an "orderly manner"?
A team headquarters.
Political commissar Li Wenjie, who rushed to the regiment headquarters after receiving the news, couldn't help but cursed.
"The Japanese army is so cruel that they are worse than animals, but they never take the lives of our compatriots seriously."
After entering the room and seeing Kong Jie and Xu Guoan looking over, Li Wenjie explained:
"Captain, there is news from the enemy's Ministry of Industry that the Japanese have begun to use force to suppress and drive away the victims in Yangquan, Ping'an, and other major surrounding counties, and are driving a large number of victims towards our Eighth Route Army base area."
"The unscrupulous little devils even directly ordered their guns to be pointed at the unarmed people, and they are carrying out bloody suppression."
"These idiots..."
He can force the elegant Li Wenjie to curse.
This little devil's cruelty and hatefulness are evident.
When Kong Jie heard this, he was also furious.
He guessed that the Japanese army would stop helping the victims because their food was robbed, and would even drive the victims to the Eighth Route Army base area.
But he didn't expect that the Japanese would break out and use force to suppress the victims.
This made Commander Kong feel guilty. After all, it was his final idea to use propaganda to get the victims to rush to the Japanese-occupied areas.
Although through this move, more victims will receive relief on the way, and they will not starve to death on the way.
"The bastard little devil is going too far to bully people. They only have a thousand tons of food. How about directly using force to suppress the victims?"
Kong Jie said angrily: "Signal Corps, immediately send orders to all regiments to disperse their troops to the outer guerrilla areas and cover the transfer of the victims to our army base. If you encounter little devils chasing you along the way, don't be polite, just say hello to the dead!"
"Yes!" the signal corps soldier responded loudly.
Chief of Staff Xu Guoan is now focusing on another matter:
"Lao Kong, I'm afraid the Japs' move is not that simple."
"A large number of victims are pouring into our base area. The Japanese will definitely take the opportunity to infiltrate the spies and find out our true identity. I think the Japanese are coming after the food we intercepted and hidden in the guerrilla zone."
As soon as these words came out, Kong Jie and Li Wenjie, who were a little angry about the victims, suddenly came to their senses.
Kong Jie said: "Old Xu, what you said is absolutely right. I have been on guard against the little devil's revenge for robbing us of food, but I didn't expect it to come quite quickly."
