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

The puppet army encountered a big explosion in the dark night, and they were scared out of their wits, and they ran away in a panic.

But running around in the water network area is not enough. Those criss-crossing rivers have become a nightmare for the remaining puppet troops. They will either become captives of the guerrillas or jump into the water and freeze to death.

In the end, the stragglers of the puppet army who had no way to go to the ground chose to surrender. Huagou and his brothers in a company even captured more than 300 prisoners, and the number of prisoners captured was twice their own number.

"Report to the battalion commander, we have wiped out the puppet army one and a half battalions down from the brigade commander, and captured more than 300 prisoners..."

After Huagou captured the prisoners and came back, he excitedly stood up and reported to the battalion commander blacksmith, with indescribable excitement on his face, this was a real victory.

And when they wiped out so many puppet troops, their own losses were almost negligible. Except for the initial surveillance post that was attacked and lost more than a dozen people, the other brothers were scratched by the fragments of the explosion at most, which hardly affected fighting power.

This was a victory with a very objective exchange ratio. Even the blacksmith who had fought many battles found it a bit inconceivable, and a rare smile appeared on his unsmiling face.

"I'll ask Officer Yang to give you credit when I go back!" The blacksmith was very satisfied with Huagou's record and praised them.

While the blacksmith sent people to report victory to Yang Ling, he also sent people to build field fortifications in the south of the city, completely blocking the last way for the devils in the city to break through.

Previously, Yang Ling was going to pretend to leave a way out for the devils in the city, but it is no longer necessary. The reason why the devils in the city are still there is mainly for fishing.

As long as the devils in Gaoyou City are still resisting, then the devils can't just ignore death. Whether it's puppet soldiers or devils, they will come over in a steady stream and become fat in Yang Ling's mouth.

Huagou and the others wiped out the main force of the puppet army by relying on landmines in the south of the city. When the news was sent back to the commander in chief, the frightened staff officers were stunned for a moment, and then burst into loud cheers. Everyone was so excited that it was beyond words.

"Immediately promote the Second Lieutenant Company Commander "Huagou" to Major Deputy Battalion Commander, and the rest of the brothers will be rewarded for their merits!"

Yang Ling also came to promote the front line to boost the morale of the officers and soldiers of the guerrilla corps to prepare for the next big battle.

Although Yang Ling is now the commander of the First Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Corps in Northern Jiangsu, his military rank is not high, so his promotion to the line of fire needs to be reported to the theater command and approved by the theater command.

However, Yang Ling was not worried that the theater command would not agree. With the deterioration of the war situation, whether it was the Sulu theater or the other theaters, due to the extreme shortage of supplies and ammunition, most of them liked to write empty promises.

In order to win over the anti-Japanese forces, many self-defense armed commanders can be appointed as majors and lieutenant colonels. Anyway, it is just a paper appointment, and there is no need to allocate food and ammunition. Woolen cloth.

This led to the emergence of a large number of officers who had never been soldiers in the occupied areas. Although they had a reputation, the people under their command were of different levels, and most of the time they were defeated.

However, Yang Ling and his troops first recovered Huaiyin, and then went all the way south to fight Gaoyou. The record is obvious to all, so there is no reason for the theater command to refuse to report the promotion of an officer. After all, they still need to rely on Yang Ling and the others to continue fighting.

Yang Ling and the others were cheering and celebrating another victory, but the devil soldiers in the city who had been completely blocked from retreating were not in a good mood.

After a night of fighting, the devils have now been compressed into the garden area in the east of the city. That area was originally a leisure place for high-ranking officials and wealthy people, but was later requisitioned by the devils as the headquarters.

And now the remaining 150 devils have built countless fortifications in this area, ready to die.

The devils also heard the explosion outside the city like landslides and landslides, and the devil commander Shaozuo Qingchuan also hurriedly sent someone to check it out. After daybreak, the devils will report back after observing the situation.

"The security brigade has been wiped out..."

When the devil commander Qing Chuan Shao Zuo got the news, his whole body seemed to be drained of strength, and he sat down on the chair in a daze, and didn't say a word for a long while.

Now the Skeleton Special Forces left without saying hello, and their expectation of the puppet army's response was also in vain. The ammunition depot was blown up again, and the haggard devil commander Shaozuo Qingchuan, whose eyes were bloodshot, felt the despair that was hard to add.

Is it really necessary to break jade here?Shaozuo Qingchuan let out a cry of unwillingness in his heart, he is unwilling!

"Immediately send a report to the Nanjing Command, our department has reached a critical moment of life and death..."

The devil's call for help became more urgent. Not only was it sent to Nanjing, but all the friendly troops around also received the call for help. Everyone knew that Gaoyou was about to lose its hold.

The devils had reached the end of their strength, and they were about to be wiped out. The guerrilla officers and soldiers were still attacking, but there was a lot of thunder and rain, and they still stood still after fighting for a long time.

Their purpose of doing this is also very simple, that is to give the devils an illusion that they still have hope of surviving, so they urge the surrounding reinforcements to move closer.

The devil's support armies have also been ordered to move closer to Gaoyou at all costs, because the headquarters of the Devil's Central China Dispatch Army knows that once Gaoyou falls, it will lead to a series of chain reactions.

Yancheng, Nantong and other places will also be under greater pressure. It is very likely that the war in central and northern Jiangsu will become corrupt and uncontrollable. Such consequences are unbearable for them.

Yang Ling and the others were still fishing in Gaoyou, mobilizing devils on the one hand and catching friendly troops on the other.

Seeing that Gaoyou was about to be recovered, the Sulu Guerrilla Corps could not sit still.

"Brother, the latest news is that Yang Ling actually killed the Fifth Brigade of the Puppet Army. Now the devils in Gaoyou City have become remnants and defeated generals. Gaoyou will soon be taken back..."

The news that Gaoyou was about to be recovered had already been released, and the Sulu guerrilla corps with eyeliners all over the place soon got the news. Deputy commander Li Changjiang hurriedly found its commander Li Mingyang.

After hearing the news that Gaoyou was about to be recovered by Yang Ling and the others, instead of being happy, Li Mingyang, the commander of the Sulu Guerrilla Corps, frowned, showing no sign of being happy for his allies.

Previously, Yang Ling had sent power several times, asking them to send troops from the Sulu guerrilla army to attack Gaoyou, but they had been waiting and watching, not moving.

Because they felt that the Gaoyou devils and puppet army were not weak, and once they fought, they would suffer heavy losses. In order to preserve their strength, they were going to wait for Yang Ling and the others to fight almost as fast as they could before cleaning up the mess.

But Yang Ling and the others are too powerful. In just a few days, they are about to take down Gaoyou.

Yang Ling's capture of Gaoyou was not a good thing for their Sulu Guerrilla Corps, but a bad thing.

Because their Sulu Guerrilla Corps has almost been preserving its strength except for a few small-scale raids since the winter offensive.

However, the newly established Northern Subei Corps has won consecutive battles. If Gaoyou is defeated, it will further set off the incompetence of their Sulu Guerrilla Corps. Li Mingyang is incompetent.

"Which one is the unit closest to Gaoyou?" Li Mingyang raised his head and asked after thinking about the pros and cons.

"It's the fifth guerrilla regiment..." Li Changjiang replied.

"Order them to quickly march towards Gaoyou at all costs. They must arrive at Gaoyou before Gaoyou is defeated, and then go into battle!"

Text 9Chapter 16 Sano Detachment

More than a dozen motorboats of devil soldiers were heading north along the river, white waves were drawn out of the icy water, and a long line of troop carriers followed behind the devil motorboats.

On the Shaobo Highway, the blood-red Rising Sun Flag was swept in the bitter cold wind, the cold steel helmets under the Rising Sun Flag were swaying, and the mighty devil soldiers marched northward in a column.

In the fields on both sides of the road, the devil cavalry galloped freely, and the cloaks of the cavalry, who were showing off their might, fluttered in the wind, trampling the farmland into a mess.

The winter offensive of the Chinese army in the Sulu area is in full swing. Facing the fierce attack of the regular Chinese army and guerrillas, the towns previously occupied by countless devils are in danger, and many counties have been recovered by the Chinese army.

The Jiangsu area has always been one of the important source areas of food and supplies under the devil's policy of supporting war with war. After all, the land in Lianghuai and Huaihe Rivers is flat and fertile, with dense water networks, and they have been grain-producing areas since ancient times.

But the current war is so rotten that all parts of northern Jiangsu, central Jiangsu and southern Jiangsu have become a mess, and the maintenance committee and the puppet army have also suffered heavy blows, which makes the devils panicked.

If the law and order in the Jiangsu-occupied area cannot be restored before the beginning of spring, then the food for the people will not be sown, and their field troops fighting against the Chinese heavy army group will face a shortage of supplies and food shortages.

After all, their small island has consumed most of the food reserves in the continuous war, and now [-]% of the food for the troops fighting in China comes from China.

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the occupied areas, to ensure that the Chinese people can grow food for them, and send it to the front-line combat troops to maintain their combat needs.

But now the large-scale offensive of the Chinese guerrilla forces behind enemy lines and the regular army has made all of this come to naught, so the elimination of the Chinese army and anti-Japanese forces in the occupied areas has become a top priority.

But now all the war zones in China are launching offensives to garrison troops everywhere, roads are blocked, and railways are no longer safe because of the raids.

The devils were no longer able to mobilize a large number of aviation units and two or three combat divisions to sweep up northern Jiangsu as they did years ago, because their strength was stretched.
