The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Thousands of troops from the Ninth Guerrilla Column marched towards Huaiyin in a mighty manner. Except for some slight resistance at the beginning, the puppet army devils behind saw them and fled at the wind, allowing them to take advantage of the situation and regain more than a dozen villages.

"Damn, why is this little devil so ungrateful?"

Seeing the devils and puppet soldiers fleeing, the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Guerrilla Column were not only excited but also puzzled.

In the past, when they fought against the devils from the Yamaguchi Brigade, the devils were fierce and belligerent, and beat them to pieces every time.

But this time the devil turned into a soft-legged shrimp uncharacteristically, and fled without fighting, which made the guerrilla officers and soldiers unclear.

"Damn it, since the little devils are afraid of us, let's stop dawdling and chase after the victory to wipe them out completely!" The nervous detachment leader was excited to lead his men to chase.

But there was also a cautious guerrilla leader who frowned: "Could it be the little devil's conspiracy?"

After all, they knew the strength of the little devils. These little devils were all transferred from outside the icy and snowy customs. They were good at fighting in the field, and they were in ambush in fear.

The face of the commander of the Ninth Guerrilla Column was also uncertain. The little devil's uncharacteristically retreating initiative made him feel uncertain.

Their Ninth Guerrilla Column was ordered to recover Huaiyin County. If they were to face the little devil head-on, with the strength of more than a dozen of their detachments, they would not necessarily lose.

But now that the little devil voluntarily retreated, he became suspicious instead. After all, the little devil was insidious and cunning, and he was worried that he would be fooled.

But now that the team has been pulled over, and there are orders from the guerrilla corps, he can't stand still, otherwise he will appear cowardly.

"The fifth detachment sent a company to the front to explore the way, and if the situation is not right, it will immediately retreat."

"The detection range of the reconnaissance platoon has been expanded to five miles to prevent being surrounded by devils."

To be on the safe side, the commander of the Ninth Guerrilla Column dispatched a leading company and a large number of scouts, and then led the main force of the column to slowly follow behind and advance towards Huaiyin.

Yamaguchi Akamatsu, the devil commander in Huaiyin City, received a report. Hearing that the ninth guerrilla column was afraid to move forward, he secretly scolded himself for being careless.

"Increase resistance along the way to lure the Chinese guerrillas to the city of Huaiyin."

The order was quickly issued to the strongholds and gun towers of the devils along the way, and the devils and puppet troops immediately launched an attack on the guerrilla column.

After the vanguard company sent by the guerrilla column encountered tenacious resistance, the situation was reported to the commander of the ninth guerrilla column, which finally let the commander breathe a sigh of relief.

"I just said why the devils fled without fighting. The feeling is that there are too few troops and the defense should be reduced." The intelligence sent back by the vanguard company greatly increased the confidence of the guerrilla commander.

Since the devils abandoned some of the surrounding villages and strongholds to shrink their defenses, it meant that the devils' forces were stretched, which undoubtedly increased their chances of winning Huaiyin.

"report!"

Just when the guerrilla commander was about to give the order to advance at full speed, a cavalry galloped over, bringing another piece of good news.

"speak!"

"Two hours ago, a group of about 800 devils left Huaiyin by car and headed for Lianshui."

"Hahaha, it must be the No. 11 column that is fighting Lianshui!" Hearing this information, the commander of the ninth guerrilla column laughed heartily.

Now that the devils have gone to reinforce Lianshui, there are fewer devils in Huaiyin City, which gives them a chance.

"Commander, let's fight, Huaiyin might already be an empty city!"

"Commander, our seventh detachment is willing to take the lead!"

......

Hearing that there were not many devils in Huaiyin City, the leaders of the guerrilla detachment became very excited, and they all wanted to win the first prize of liberating Huaiyin, after all, it could be a source of promotion.

The guerrilla commander felt that there were a large number of devils and puppet troops stationed in Huaiyin, and he was still very nervous. He planned to let the not very obedient Yang Ling detachment fight, and grind Yang Ling's temper by the way.

But now Huaiyin didn't have many enemies, if he gave Yang Ling's detachment more credit, he would give credit to them, and he wouldn't do business that lost money.

"Liu Jinhu, your detachment will take the lead and take Huaiyin City before dark. We will have dinner in the city!"

"Yes!"

Liu Jinhu, the captain of the first team with a swollen face, clasped his fists immediately, and ran back to his team with his legs clamped in the belly of the horse.

Soon, more than 500 officers and soldiers of the first detachment rolled up smoke and dust and rushed towards Huaiyin City.

The rest of the detachments were naturally not to be outdone, and followed in a mess to quickly advance towards Huaiyin City.

Although the devils and puppet soldiers along the way were ordered to resist slightly, they saw the guerrillas approaching aggressively and fired a few shots from a distance before running away.

The devils and the puppet army retreated towards Huaiyin City in embarrassment. The weapons, supplies, bullets and money discarded along the way cheered up the chasing guerrilla officers and soldiers.

The guerrilla officers and soldiers rushed towards Huaiyin as if they were being praised, all wanting to seize more weapons, ammunition and money.

After all, they have been chased by the devils these days, so they can only hide around in the countryside, full and hungry, it can be said that they are poor.

Now that the devils are already vulnerable, they have no scruples anymore. The weapons, ammunition and money discarded by the devils make their eyes red.

Liu Jinhu, the captain of the first team in the lead, felt that something was wrong, and wanted the officers and soldiers to slow down, fearing that they might encounter an ambush.

But now the officers and soldiers of the guerrilla army usually have a loose sense of discipline, and now they can't hold back if they let go, and the detachments behind are also catching up quickly.

In the end, Liu Jinhu had to give up the idea of ​​slowing down the advance speed. Although they were all under the command of the Ninth Guerrilla Column, the detachments were not monolithic with each other.

Thousands of officers and soldiers of the guerrilla detachment rushed towards Huaiyin County in a crowd. For a while, smoke and dust billowed on the road, and the huge team was spectacular.

But Chimatsu Zhongsayamaguchi, the devil sitting in Huaiyin City, had a sneer all over his face. He had already set up a sophisticated trap under Huaiyin City, and he was just waiting for these guerrillas to sneak in.

In the past when they encircled and suppressed the guerrillas, even with the help of the traitors, they still could not completely wipe out the guerrillas. Most of the time they just defeated them, and soon they were able to gather again. '

But this time the devil Zhongzuo Yamaguchi had a great appetite, and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to wipe out the guerrillas under Huaiyin City.

And it was just an illusion that he sent three squadrons to support Lianshui. The three armed devil squadrons found a forest to hide after leaving the city.

Text Chapter 844 Attack Scheme

Before dark, more than 3000 officers and soldiers of the Ninth Guerrilla Column rolled up smoke and dust and arrived two miles outside Huaiyin City along the road.

"Report to the captain, the Chinese guerrilla forces have already attacked the positions outside the city, should you encircle them immediately!"

A devil's intelligence officer trotted all the way up to the three-story watchtower platform of a rich man's compound in Huaiyin City, snapping to attention and loudly asking Chisong Yamaguchi for instructions.

On this watchtower surrounded by crenels, Captain Yamaguchi Chimatsu, surrounded by more than a dozen young officers with murderous faces, was looking out of the city with his binoculars.

In the binoculars, the guerrilla troops rushing forward along the road are crowded with people, and the smoke and dust filled with thousands of feet trampled on it, which looks quite powerful.

Seeing the fish take the bait, a venomous look of conspiracy appeared on the rigid face of the captain of the ghost team, Akamatsu Yamaguchi. He put down the binoculars and turned around to order.

"The troops in ambush temporarily hide and stand by, waiting for orders before attacking."

"Hi Yi!" The intelligence officer responded after being taken aback for a moment, then turned around and went down the stairs to the watchtower.
