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

The quiet and peaceful village was devastated in the blink of an eye, and these so-called guerrillas showed no mercy.

"Squadron leader, do you want to kill them all?"

A man with a pockmarked face leaned forward and asked viciously.

"No, we have to save some lives, otherwise how can we make the atrocities of the guerrillas public." The officer sneered.

In fact, the so-called guerrillas were not officers and soldiers of the Subei Corps at all, they were the traitor raiders led by Liu Heitan.

After they received the devil's secret training in Gaoyou, they infiltrated into the control area of ​​the guerrilla corps and pretended to be devils and guerrillas for a while, burning, killing and looting the local people, doing everything.

Their purpose is also very simple, pretending to be guerrillas hunting down devils, and then intentionally killing people, harassing the people intentionally, sowing discord, and making the local people hostile to the guerrillas.

The reason why the North Subei Corps was able to gain a firm foothold in this area was inseparable from the support of the local people. They sent their children to the guerrillas one after another to support the guerrillas by saving money.

But now the devils sent these traitors to pretend to be guerrillas to deliberately harass the people, just to get rid of the bottom line, and then make the North Jiangsu Corps lose the support of the people.

Now the entire area is in the enemy's occupied area. If the Subei Corps loses the support of the people, it will really become a lone army without the support of money and food.

And this is exactly the poisonous plan of Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil detachment. He wants to make the people and the guerrillas hostile, and then when the guerrillas are in a hurry to respond, he will press down heavily to completely eliminate the guerrillas and the Chinese army in this area. regular troops.

Liu Heitan and his group of traitors who have received professional training and killed without blinking an eye are the vanguard of the devil's mission this time.

"withdraw!"

Liu Heitan and the others set fire to the homes of the village head and the militia leader in the village, and then walked away satisfied.

When Liu Heitan and the others were gone, the villagers who escaped their lives returned to the village in fear. Seeing the villagers and their relatives lying in a pool of blood, they cried for a moment.

Text Chapter 73: Weird Atmosphere

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Liu Heitan and his group of traitors disguised themselves as officers and soldiers of the northern Jiangsu guerrillas and slaughtered wanton and bloody everywhere in the name of dealing with traitors.

In order to arouse the hatred of the local people and the Subei Corps, Liu Heitan and the others specifically selected and killed those who were highly respected in each village, and many patriots who supported the Subei Corps were also slaughtered.

For a moment, the people in this area were panicked and the wind was turbulent. All the people who had supported the Northern Subei Guerrilla Corps turned their faces one after another and began to hate the Subei Guerrilla Corps.

Because they are all rural areas, the North Jiangsu Corps did not send troops to station, but only led the establishment of the militia joint defense self-defense force.

Under the massacre of Liu Heitan, who was disguised as a guerrilla, these militia, joint defense and self-defense forces that originally supported the Northern Subei Corps also turned their backs one after another, and pointed their guns in the direction of the Subei Corps.

The local people and militiamen who were kept in the dark didn't know that the so-called "guerrillas" who killed in various villages were fake. They were a group of traitors who specially tried to provoke the relationship between the Northern Subei Corps and the people.

In this era of backward communication means, due to the sudden hostility of the people towards the Subei Corps, the intelligence network established by Yang Ling and others relying on the locals was also paralyzed.

Because the relatives and neighbors of the intelligence personnel composed of these local people were also killed later, the hatred blinded people, and they did not expect to report the situation to the North Jiangsu Corps to ask for an explanation.

Because of the infiltration troops of the devils in this area, the combat companies drawn from the combat troops of the Northern Subei Corps also entered this area, preparing to encircle and suppress the devils and train in actual combat.

But when these combat companies entered the area, they realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"Why does it feel so lifeless? I didn't see anyone along the way." Some brothers were puzzled.

The brothers still maintained a good military discipline and entered this area, but the roads along the way were deserted, and even the peddlers were not seen.

"It's such a cold weather, I guess everyone is warming up at home." A brother said indifferently.

Although it is already February, the wind is still bitterly cold, and many brothers are not surprised by this.

"No, no, haven't you noticed that there are many new graves along the way?" Some brothers still felt that something was wrong.

A brother nodded as if remembering: "It seems to be, there are more than a dozen of them that we saw."

"Could it be that the plague was born here?"

A brother suddenly thought of something, his face turned pale, and the eyelids of the brothers around him jumped wildly in fright, thinking it seemed possible.

In this era of lack of medical treatment and medicine, the plague is synonymous with death. Once infected, it will be dead.

Many times after a battle is over, because there are too many rotting corpses, a plague will often occur, so that the devils dare not easily enter the area where the plague occurs.

"What nonsense, where does the plague come from in the winter!"

Hearing the startled discussions among the brothers, the captain and company commander Sun Liang felt a shudder in his head at the brother who brought up this topic.

When the brothers heard the company commander Sun Liang's words, their faces softened one after another. They heard that the plague occurs in hot weather, but they have never heard of the plague in winter.

Although the captain and company commander Sun Liang felt that there should be no plague in the winter, he also felt that something was wrong in this area, and he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"A platoon leader!" Sun Liang, the company commander, shouted to the back.

"Have!"

A second lieutenant platoon leader with a square face hurriedly trotted over from behind, and stood upright in front of Sun Liang.

"Take a few brothers to the front to see what's going on, and find a guide by the way." Sun Liang ordered the platoon leader.

"Yes!"

The leader of the platoon called out the names of a few brothers from the team, and then led them out of the team and went out to investigate.

The company commander, Sun Liang, led the team and walked slowly behind. They were here to encircle and suppress the infiltration troops of the devils, so they kept the battle formation all the time.

Soon, the platoon leader who went out to investigate came back from the front with a frustrated face.

"what's the situation?"

Looking at these dejected brothers, Sun Liang also felt that something was wrong, so he stepped forward to ask.

"We have a village ahead, according to the map, it should be called Yangjiagou..." a platoon leader reported.

"Let's go, lead the way. Tonight we will camp in Yangjiagou." Hearing that there was a village ahead, Sun Liang, the company commander, was very happy and was about to greet him.

But the platoon leader stood still and said, "Company commander, let's camp in another place tonight."

"Why?" Company Commander Sun Liang was full of doubts.

"We wanted to enter the village, but the villagers threw stones at us and said they didn't welcome us." A brother couldn't help but said.

"Huh?" Company Commander Sun Liang frowned.

Their North Jiangsu Corps has always had a good relationship with the people in this area, so why is this happening now?

"Did you not clarify our identities?" Company Commander Sun Liang quickly asked these brothers.

"We've said it, they're more vicious, and some people rushed out with kitchen knives..." There was a row of grievances.

Sun Liang looked at the brothers who went to investigate: "That's strange, did you do something outrageous?"
