The wasteland stretches as far as the eye can see under the sun.
A team heading east suddenly stopped.
The wasteland to the east is vast, with turrets vaguely visible in the distance.
Captain Sun was too ignorant and stayed up all night. In the end, he was unable to defeat County Magistrate Yang and had to assemble his team again.
Unfortunately, in the rush, only one battalion was assembled.
An Eighth Route Army soldier wearing glasses stood in front of the team, preparing to cheer up the team that was lined up to attack the artillery tower.
County Magistrate Yang stood quietly in front of the team for a long time, and then moved around slowly.
He looked at the soldiers standing in the front row one by one and raised his hands to arrange their military uniforms one by one.
What a picture of someone who loves his soldiers as much as his sons
"County Magistrate, I am not bragging, but our battalion can also defeat the puppet army!" Captain Sun, who was following behind Magistrate Yang, slapped his chest loudly.
County Magistrate Yang Da didn't want to pay attention to Commander Sun, so he asked casually out of face: "Where are your battalion commanders?"
"They are gathering the team and will probably be here soon."
"How many gun towers do you think these people could have destroyed without them?"
How many more turrets do you want to hit?
This guy can really think about it. Captain Sun really wanted to curse, but on the surface he had to deal with it, with a rich expression on his face: "You can't tell. If you're lucky, you might be able to win."
Do you rely on luck when building gun towers? This statement is quite new.
County Magistrate Yang changed the topic and said in a serious tone: "Tell me, what responsibility should the commander bear if the team cannot assemble on time?"
Captain Sun was confident: "Isn't that simple? Instruct the commander to write an inspection, or else let that bastard get out of here. Of course, it is also possible to disband the team directly. Anyway, there is a lack of food now, so let them work for a while. Time bandits can come back again."
Disband? Did this county magistrate grow up threatened?
County Magistrate Yang Da knew in his heart that the team organized by the bandits was typically unorganized and undisciplined!
The teams mixed with Jiuying all have this kind of virtue!
County Magistrate Yang secretly vowed in his heart that in the future, under his personal leadership, he would turn this team into a steel team capable of fighting tough battles.
Captain Sun didn't care and continued with a shy face: "County Magistrate Yang, I don't think there is any need to wait for them. I will take command personally and ensure that the gun towers are taken down. You can give the order now."
…
blockhouse.
There were originally Japanese instructors, perhaps because there was a water conservation group to the west of the blockade ditch, so later the Japanese simply didn't even bother to send instructors.
Each blockhouse usually only has one platoon of security troops stationed there.
The platoon was actually divided into two shifts. One part of the shift guarded the gun tower, and the other part who did not take their turn went to the village to the east to rest.
The turret is only so big, so if there are many people, it will feel very crowded.
At this moment, the phone in the turret was ringing desperately.
Platoon leader Zhang Zhi raised his voice: "Oh, Captain Chen, don't worry, I have made arrangements. As soon as we see their shadow, we will flee to Xujiatun to assemble, and we will ensure that they eat the eggs like rats and find no place to eat." .”
"."
"Don't worry, the stuff in the blockhouse was emptied out last night, and he can't get anything."
"."
"yes"
A team carrying flags rumbled and ran in disorder from west to east, with the turrets in front of them in sight.
Not long after, a whistle came from the top of the turret.
Half a platoon of security troops ran out of the gun tower.
The security forces running in front were holding telephones, and the security forces behind were not even leaving behind the chamber pot in the room.
A puppet soldier muttered: "That idiot county magistrate actually asked the water conservation team to attack the artillery towers. He is really crazy for wanting to make a contribution."
Another puppet soldier smiled evilly: "Hey, let's just play with him."
"Have the company commander called the people in the city to report?"
"I have already reported it. The superiors are very supportive of our security army and the water conservation group conducting exercises. They said that we can exchange as many bullets as we hand over the bullet casings."
The scout trotted to the south blockhouse, went straight to Chen Chong, and reported with a smile: "Report to the company commander, Captain Sun only led a battalion of more than 300 people, about three miles away from the Guojiazhuang blockhouse."
Chen Chong waved his hand: "Call Lao Meng immediately and let them prepare."
The soldier next to him immediately shook the phone: "Hey, hey."
Xujiazhuang gun tower.
With the turret as the center, six trenches were dug in the three outer and outer three circles. Including the traffic trenches, it was no different from a spider web.
Without heavy weapons, there would be no way to get close to the gun tower.
The puppet troops from the Guojiazhuang gun tower in the south were running towards him.
"Is this fucking playing house?" Captain Meng, who was in charge of the command, had a toothache at the sight: "Soon I saw the attacking water conservation team, and everyone fired at the place where the flag was displayed to greet them.
A student soldier brought back by Ma Liang muttered: "Captain Sun is too cowardly, isn't he? He was actually forced by a man named Yang to beat one of his own people?"
"Captain Meng, there is one thing I don't understand. Can't we just tell the county government directly that all these gun towers are in our hands?"
Lao Meng replied: "There is a mixed crowd in the county government, and it is easy for information to leak."
"But if we make such a big noise, the little devil is not blind. How can we hide it?"
The half-filled can of water next to him said, "You know nothing, the little devil has long known that we are in cahoots with the turrets."
The person who asked the question immediately corrected him: "You used the word incorrectly. Collusion is a derogatory connotation!"
The half-filled bottle of water glared: "Then which word do you think I should use?"
The person who asked the question deliberately said: "You should use embarrassment as a traitor"
"roll"
"Hey, to be serious, this guy is obviously here to pick peaches. Is he crazy because he wants to make a contribution?"
"People's hearts are separated from each other, who knows?" Half a bottle of water suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute, did you just say that the little devil knows about our relationship with the gun tower?"
"Do you think the little devil is really blind?"
"Then why don't you care about that kid?" he asked with a half-full bottle of water in his eyes.
"Do you think Teacher Mei and the others are just trying to dismantle the committee? Most of the puppet troops on the plains are now affiliated with the Eighth Route Army."
"I said, can you use the wording more accurately? What does it mean to have a leg?" The half-full bottle of water immediately caught the other party's language problem.
"Well, there are puppet troops related to the Eighth Route Army everywhere, and the little devils can't control them for a while." This person deliberately joked about the half-filled bottle of water.
"What you said seems to make sense."
Anxian Military Camp.
The major looked at the subordinates in the conference room: "Tubalu is fighting on his own this time. What do you think?"
"The Chinese are just not united, so we can just sit back and watch," a captain said nonchalantly.
"The Soil and Water Conservation Corps secretly colluded with the Eighth Route Army, and has even surrendered to the Eighth Route Army as a whole. I suggest directly assassinating Sun Youshang, and then sending our people to replace him." Another captain analyzed first and then suggested.
A middle-aged man immediately objected: "Haha, we have to let the county magistrate have some merit in the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, how can he get promoted?"
The major nodded: "The strategy of using China to control China cannot be changed."
The third captain finally spoke: "However, Tubal Road burned down the Chamber of Commerce's warehouse, causing us great losses."
"No matter how big the loss is, it's just a matter of cargo. The top priority is to assist County Magistrate Yang and get rid of Sun Youshang of the Soil and Water Conservation Corps with reasonable excuses."
"I suggest that Guo Qing wait for an opportunity to recruit the Soil and Water Conservation Corps in the name of fighting for territory."
"Do you think that Guo Qing is very reliable? This guy is also blown by the wind, otherwise the imperial army would not have surrounded and suppressed him last time."
The Major listened to the suggestions of his men and waved his hands: "It seems that you still have not fully understood the current situation. On the surface, the Soil and Water Conservation Corps is in the hands of the Eighth Route Army. In fact, to us, a Soil and Water Conservation Corps is nothing. ? It’s just ringworm!
If we really want to annihilate them, we can do it in a day or two, but what will be the result of annihilating them?
Like some concentration camps, all eight routes were wiped out, but the result was that they couldn't even collect military rations, and the concentration camp instead asked people for food.
But letting the Eighth Route Army take over can ensure that the military rations are received on time! Think about it, what choice should we make? "
"But if you let it go so laissez-faire, you may endanger tigers." The third captain was a little worried.
The major smiled mysteriously: "You are wrong. Raising a tiger will cause trouble. First of all, it must be a tiger! Just like why did the empire set up the Jinling government? It's just to let a few dogs bite each other. We only need to let the obedient dogs win the final victory. Victory can ultimately ensure the interests of the empire.”
"Major Sao! The man surnamed Yang has a high vision but a low hand. If he really controls this area, on the surface, he will develop a large so-called base area and make great contributions to the Eighth Route Army. In order to maintain this status quo, he will definitely deliver food on time. But in fact , but the Imperial Army secretly controls everything, so what does it matter whether he is a member of the Eighth Route Army or not?" The third lieutenant was the first to understand.
"I understand, it turns out that this is the highest level of using China to control China!" The other two captains nodded at the same time.
Shao Zuo concluded with a grim smile: "So, everyone must be clear, within the scope of control, to choose between eliminating the Eighth Route Army or making the Eighth Route Army work for me, first consider maximizing the interests of the empire. On the surface, it seems to leave a chance for the opponent, but in fact It is the most conducive to economic gain!
And this is just the first step. When the Eighth Route Army relaxes its vigilance and arranges elite personnel to be enriched in the so-called base area, then it only needs to concentrate its troops to defeat them in one fell swoop. According to Chinese people, even if you kill a pig, you have to wait until the pig is fat. "Knife slaughter"
The military police commander Major Maeda who was watching couldn't help but feel worried.
There was no such statement in the new national policy promulgated by the empire the year before last. It had always adopted a completely high-pressure policy of only suppressing but not appeasing the Eighth Route Army!
