A sudden heavy rain fell in the Weihe River Basin.
The plain land, which has been dry for more than a year, is saturated with water.
The excess water drains away along the channels and flows into the river.
This heavy rain came quickly and violently, and the amount of precipitation far exceeded the drainage capacity of the river.
The situation upstream was fine, but at the lower reaches it was a different story.
The river water surged, and the accumulated water in the fields could not be drained out in a short time, causing waterlogging immediately.
The activities of the Eighth Route guerrillas in the lower reaches of the Wei River are rampant, and there is a faint trend of continued expansion of the base area.
The main functions of the various pseudo-county offices established in the occupied areas were to collect food and provide coal, labor and other resources for the little devils.
The education we engage in is also enslavement education.
As for meteorology, medical care, industry, etc., there is almost no such thing. The largest factory is the county match factory.
The technological level of the little devil is far beyond that of the county office, which cannot research anything.
With the help of meteorological experts, he had known that there would be heavy rain, and took advantage of the heavy rain to carry out a new conspiracy.
Now it is not a matter of how many Eighth Route Army soldiers are to be eliminated, but to kill all the people in the entire Wei River Basin!
Only by killing all the people will the Eighth Route Army and the various anti-Japanese armed forces truly lose the foundation for their survival and activities.
Now that the anti-Japanese elements are gone, those disobedient Allied Autonomous Forces can naturally be dismantled.
Then some reclamation groups and good people were moved over from several northeastern provinces.
Only then can the public security cleanup plan be truly implemented.
Therefore, the guerrillas think they are successful when they launch a railway attack, but in fact the little devils have little interest in encirclement and suppression.
No destruction, no establishment, the Japanese finally understood the meaning of this word.
Use China to control China, and let the 42nd Army of the New Fifth Army in the south drive the people northward into the Wei River Basin.
Then a large number of Tiger La bacteria were simultaneously released into more than 30 large and small rivers such as Quliuqi River and Junhe River in the Weihe River Basin.
Your Tubal Road subdivision and that subdivision are jumping very hard. This time I'm going to cut it all off!
Following this, the gendarmerie of each county immediately dispatched: to assess the results of germ warfare.
HD Independent Constitution Mixed Brigade Headquarters.
Soon, the Cheng'an County Gendarmerie couldn't get through to the phone, and there was no response even after sending a telegram.
Command quickly realized something might be wrong.
Cheng'an County, which was assisted by the Imperial Alliance Army's Guo Qing Division, was located between HD and Wei County, where the Allied Autonomous Army was stationed.
It is the starting point for releasing bacteria east of the railway line. It has a prominent strategic location and cannot be lost.
The HD Gendarmerie reported immediately and followed the orders of a Japanese squadron that had just defeated Xu Tieying's unit, and led a camp defense force to go check it out.
At the same time, the autonomous army stationed in Wei County in the lower reaches of the Zhanghe River was ordered to assemble a brigade on standby.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, more than 20 trucks, escorted by five armored vehicles, marched toward Wucheng County.
The road that had been raining was full of mud. The wheeled armored vehicle looked at the scenery, and the wheels of the wheeled armored vehicle were slipping when pressed into the water-filled road.
The puppet soldiers who originally thought they could experience the feeling of riding in a car had to jump out of the car and push the armored vehicle forward.
We didn't walk until dark, only halfway through the journey, which was more than 30 miles.
Slower than walking.
Wang Pengying had little experience in breaking iron. He followed the commander of the third column and honestly moved the rails for two days in the storm and just buried them in the soil. The soldiers on guard in the north looked at the series of lights in the distance, quickly pushed onto the battalion commander's precious bicycle, and ran south desperately.
There is water everywhere on the road under the stars, and the road is not easy to walk.
Passing by a small river, he shouted to the soldiers guarding the bridge: "Hurry up and demolish the bridge, the enemy is coming!"
Follow, continue south, and go to the place where the battalion commander buried the railroad tracks to report the news.
Wang Peng, who had almost finished his work in the wilderness, received a report from the soldiers: "How many enemies are coming?"
"More than twenty cars and five iron bastards, it is estimated that there are five or six hundred." The soldier's reconnaissance level is not low.
"In other words, about two battalions?" Wang Peng was stunned for a moment. The Japanese were advancing along the road. Obviously, the target was not him.
Maybe it was the normal mobilization of the Japanese troops.
Cheng'an County to the south is in the hands of the Japs, and to the south is the Autonomous Army. Could it be that the Three Columns defeated the Japs and then prepared to attack the Autonomous Army?
This matter should have nothing to do with you.
I have dismantled more than a dozen rails. Even if the enemy pursues me, they should come from the railway side. Thinking of this: "Correspondent, are there any signs of the enemy coming from the railway side?"
The correspondent next to him quickly reported: "No, I didn't reply until dark."
His company commander said, "There has been noise in the southeast in the afternoon. Could it be that there is movement in the south?"
"To the south, the puppet army defense area. In this way, we will destroy whatever the devils do anyway. The team will assemble immediately and dig roads and break bridges with the militiamen!"
"Battal Commander, I think, why don't we stab them?"
"Can you beat an armored car?"
"Hey, the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. We can't win in a positional battle. If we want to fight guerrillas, are we still afraid of the little Japs?"
"Then be careful and bring the battalion mortar team with you!" Wang Peng thought for a while and then ordered again: "The reconnaissance platoon, immediately send people to conduct reconnaissance southward along the highway all the way to Cheng'an County!"
"yes!"
The gunfire in Cheng'an County has not stopped.
The Japanese still took advantage of the darkness to hide in private houses and resist.
Before dark, after Da Gou and Li Laosi captured the Xicheng Tower, the entire county was almost completely in the hands of Jiuying.
The puppet army trained by the Japanese is still a puppet army.
If you follow the Japanese to the nearby plains or into the mountains for raids, you can only guard a mountain pass on the outside.
On weekdays, the guerrillas, who maintain law and order and bully the people, can still take advantage with only three or five rounds of ammunition. But when they encounter a tough guy like Jiuying, their true colors are immediately revealed.
In the battle of the military camp, the Japanese commander was killed first, and most of the Japanese infantry were killed or injured.
As Big Dog and Li Laosi led their men from the city gate to outflank them from behind, the number of Japanese soldiers who led reinforcements to the military camp was already small, and there were corpses of Japanese soldiers lying on the ground.
The puppet troops even hid directly in civilian houses without showing their faces.
After entering the private house with his remaining men, the Japanese Army Sergeant found that he could not join up with other teams.
Change the plan immediately and start street fighting on the spot.
After arranging the troops, it was discovered that there were only about thirty people left.
In the sergeant's opinion, he may lack the ability to command too many Japs, but to command two squads of Japs, that is what he is good at, and he is not afraid of anyone.
Although they have suffered a loss, now that they have darkness as a cover, who can the elite imperial army be afraid of?
So we used private houses to start echelon firepower arrangements.
The county town was being attacked so hard that he couldn't believe that there was no news at all from the nearby gun towers.
Reinforcements from the imperial army might already be on the way at this time.
boom.
Another gunshot rang out in Nanmin's room in the military camp.
The Japanese hiding in the darkness didn't even fight back.
Madman Yang looked at the corpses of the soldiers brought back, and his heart twitched: "Stop attacking!"
The grenades were thrown three times, but the Japanese were not moved at all.
The most fearful thing is this situation. No matter how you fight, he just can't hide.
Searching house by house won't work, because the Japs will circle around this circle of private houses. Many private houses are surrounded by fences and walls, which can be easily broken through.
Commander Xiong ran up to Hu Yi panting, and said with a big grin: "Boss Hu, the people have emptied the grain depot, and the devils can't eat it for the time being. Should we consider retreating now?"
The enemy wanted to run away before they even came, and Hu Yi didn't want to deal with this person who was afraid of death.
Originally they just wanted to grab a radio station, but they didn't expect to easily win a county town.
I continued to look at the people running around in the streets and alleys, thinking hard about countermeasures.
We can't let them stay! Because the devil will definitely take revenge.
They all had to be taken away, but where to go now was the question.
Commander Xiong noticed that Hu Yi was expressionless and silent, and habitually scratched the back of his head.
The thoughts in his head were spinning like crazy: "We can't hold on anyway. The telegram has been sent. If we don't run away now after getting so many good things, the Japanese will fight back. Will our hard work be in vain?"
"Go and call that armed work captain over!"
"Why did you ask him to do it? They didn't do anything this time, and they didn't get so many good things!" The Fortune Bear looked wary.
Poof, I got a kick on the thigh.
Hu Yi's voice was cold: "Why is there so much nonsense?"
