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

Before they arrived at Huaiyin City, they got such bad news that the friendly troops assembled in Huaiyin were unexpectedly attacked by devils. Seeing Liu Jinhu and his group's distressed appearance, the situation might be a bit dire.

Wang Huzi was eager to find out what happened in Huaiyin City, so he immediately strode towards Liu Jinhu.

The two sides saluted each other and got to know each other for a while, and Wang Huzi directly asked about the situation in Huaiyin straight to the point, without caring about the pleasantries. After all, it was related to the next move.

"Captain Liu, do you know how many devils and puppet troops raided you?" Wang Huzi asked carefully.

Liu Jinhu and the others were raided in the dark, how did they know how many devils there were, and shook their heads helplessly, thinking of those brothers who broke through and sacrificed, sadness welled up on their faces.

"What about the rest of the brothers, have they broken through?" Wang Huzi saw Liu Jinhu shaking his head, and then asked again.

"When we broke through the encirclement, the rest of the guerrilla detachment was still in chaos. We wanted to tear open the opening to cover their retreat, but the devils fired at us. We were worried that we would be trapped again and had to retreat first. As for whether the rest of the brothers broke out, we are currently unknown."

Hearing Liu Jinhu's story, Wang Huzi could also imagine what kind of chaotic scene it would be if more than a dozen unfamiliar detachments were attacked at night.

As the questions were raised one after another, Wang Huzi's heart also sank to the bottom of the valley while listening to Liu Jinhu's narration. For those brothers who did not break out, it is estimated that there is more than good luck.

After all, the devils and the puppet army came prepared, and they were surrounded by groups. In such a chaotic situation without command, there was little hope of breaking through alive.

Thinking that before arriving in Huaiyin, the main force of the Ninth Guerrilla Column would be destroyed. Wang Huzi was glad that they escaped a step too late, but he was more puzzled, why they were surrounded by devils.

What Wang Huzi didn't know was that the Devil's Yamaguchi Brigade had already planned this matter. They retreated step by step and lured the main force of the guerrilla column to the unobstructed Huaiyin City, just to catch them all in one go.

But what the cunning and vicious Captain Yamaguchi Akamatsu did not expect was that although the trap they set up wiped out the main force of the Ninth Guerrilla Column in one fell swoop, there were still fish that slipped through the net.

And the fish that slipped through the net was the third guerrilla detachment that was delayed because of the elimination of the devils in Qinghe town, and the third guerrilla detachment, whose strength was rapidly improving, was destined to become a nightmare for the devils.

"knife!"

After learning some important information from Liu Jinhu, Wang Huzi didn't dare to lead the team forward now.

"Have!"

"Quickly dispatch a reconnaissance platoon to investigate the enemy's situation in the direction of Huaiyin, and find out whether the brothers from the rest of the detachment have broken through."

"Yes!"

In response to the knife, he hurriedly arranged for people to go, and soon a row of brothers ran towards Huaiyin.

"Two companies and three companies, the machine gun company quickly built a position on the spot!" Wang Huzi waved his hand, and the three company commanders also took active actions.

The people in the communication class also quickly sent people to go in the opposite direction to report the situation to Yang Ling.

"Cooking team, get something to eat for Captain Liu and the others." Seeing how tired and hungry Liu Jinhu and the others looked, Wang Huzi gave orders to the cooking team of Yingzhi after he stopped giving all orders.

"Thank you, Battalion Commander Wang."

How embarrassed Liu Jinhu and the others are now, when they heard Wang Huzi's words when they were hungry, they were filled with gratitude.

"They are all brothers who fight devils, so why bother to be so divided, you rest and eat first, and I will set up positions."

After Wang Huzi and Liu Jinhu greeted each other, they climbed up the low hill next to the road and ordered the brothers to dig trenches on the spot, preparing to stop the devils.

Yang Ling and the others are currently behind in their communication methods, and they rely on signal soldiers to transmit orders and messages on foot.

In the villages near Xiaowangzhuang and Zhangjiaji, information trees and other means of transmitting information were established, but now that Qinghe Town has been recovered, and it is advancing to Huaiyin, many of these things cannot keep up with the speed of expansion of the base area.

It was already noon when the communications troops sent by Wang Huzi and the others rushed back to Qinghe Town. Yang Ling was waiting in Qinghe Town for the deputy leader to arrive from Xiaowangzhuang to take over.

They captured hundreds of puppet troops and captured many traitors and enemy agents in Qinghe Town. These people are huge security risks, and if they are not handled properly, they will cause serious consequences.

Therefore, Yang Ling did not dare to transfer all his troops to Huaiyin when the rear was unstable. Instead, he sent Wang Huzi to go ahead and stayed in Qinghe Town with part of his troops.

The so-called don't panic with a gun in hand, having Wu Changqing's second battalion and detachment directly under the guards' township will be of great benefit to the restoration of order in Qinghe town.

Before the deputy detachment leader arrived at Qinghe Town from Xiaowangzhuang, Yang Ling had already started to organize people to interrogate the traitors and enemy agents, and held a public trial meeting to try to clear up the poison stream as soon as possible.

And among the captured puppet army, puppet police, and plainclothes team, Yang Ling also started screening work, and those who committed the most heinous crimes were all executed after a public trial.

Those who did not commit serious crimes but aided the evildoers were not killed, but were sent to newly established labor camps for reform through labor according to specific circumstances.

As for those who joined the puppet army and the puppet police in order to make a living, Yang Ling gave them forgiveness. They could be ordinary people again, or join the guerrillas as soldiers to fight devils again.

All kinds of things are complicated. Now the third guerrilla detachment has many officers who can fight, but there are very few who handle these government affairs.

After all, their third guerrilla detachment was considered a combat force, and they never thought about taking over government affairs. Now Yang Ling and the others had to fight while restoring local order and management.

Due to the lack of management talents, Yang Ling had to do many things by himself. He felt that there were too few talents under his command to share the burden for him.

But at this juncture, Wang Huzi sent another bad news, which made Yang Ling even more exhausted.

Text Chapter 855 Crisis

"The former Xiaowang Zhuang Baochang, the current vice president of the Puppet Maintenance Association, Liu Liang, confessed to being a thief as his father and betrayed the country, and colluded with the water bandits and Japanese invaders to kill our patriotic soldiers and civilians... He committed a heinous crime. After trial, he is now executed for treason and defection to the enemy!"

On the temporary execution platform outside the heavily guarded Qinghe town hall, the brothers in charge of the trial shouted loudly, reading out the crimes of the traitor Liu Liang.

Surrounding the execution platform is a large group of people in darkness. The hardships of life have left traces of the years on their faces. Compared with Liu Liang, who is potbellied, their bony bodies make people's noses sour.

Although most of these people are residents of the town, unlike those farmers who live in the countryside, most of the people in the town rely on commerce and trade for a living.

After all, the northern Jiangsu area is close to the junction of North China and Central China, and the Huaihe River flows into the sea. At the same time, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal also runs through the territory, and its commerce and trade have been developed since ancient times.

In ancient times, Huaiyang, Suzhou and Hangzhou were known as Huaiyang, Suzhou and Hangzhou. These four areas belonged to prosperous commercial areas, and Huaiyin, to which Qinghe Town belongs, has been prosperous since ancient times.

However, since the invasion of the devils, wars have raged, business routes have been cut off, and these people in Qinghe Town have also lost their source of livelihood. Many people have to rely on their remaining savings to eke out a living.

And the search of devils and traitors made their lives even worse. Facing the devils and traitors with bayonets, they struggled through life.

In order to maintain expenses and enjoyment, the Maintenance Association deliberately apportioned a lot of taxes, making the people of Qinghe Town miserable, and hated the Maintenance Association.

It's a pity that there are devils behind the maintenance meeting, and the common people dare not speak out.

Now that the president and vice-chairman of the Maintenance Association, who has always been doing evil, has been detained and sentenced, the people who have been oppressed for a long time seem to have found an outlet for their emotions.

"Kill them! Kill them!"

Every one of the black crowd was burning with hot anger in their chests, and in the roar, they threw shoes and stones out one after another.

On weekdays, Liu Liang and others who were flamboyant and unkempt were beaten and screamed. If the guerrilla officers and soldiers responsible for maintaining order hadn't stopped them, they would have been beaten to death by angry people.

"preparation!"

Seeing the agitated people, the guerrilla staff in charge of the trial conference was worried that something would happen, so with a wave of his hand, several executioners loaded their bullets with a clatter of bullets, and pointed their muzzles at Liu Liang and others.

The traitor Liu Liang and others were used to arrogance and prestige. Faced with the cruel executioner, their bodies shook like chaff, and they kept kowtow to beg for mercy.
