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

Yang Ling's military meeting ended soon, and all the battalion commanders filed out to prepare actively.

After two days of preparation, the mighty troops left the camp and swaggered towards Gaoyou in the south.

Although the main target of the troops was Baoying in the north, in order to confuse the devils, all troops were required to march south during the day.

The officers and soldiers of the North Jiangsu Corps marched in the direction of Gaoyou in two columns, with banners unfurled, and the energetic officers and soldiers rolled up the smoke and dust in the sky, and the cold bayonets were like a forest of bayonets.

Seeing such a huge and majestic team, the people along the way were all excited and danced, standing on both sides of the road to cheer for the troops.

"Destroy the little devils! Liberate Gaoyou!"

"Down with Japanese imperialism!"

"Sword Guide to Beijing!"

"Down with traitors and traitors! Liberate all of China!"

The Army Propaganda Team under the Northern Subei Corps was not idle either. In order to create momentum for this feint attack on the southern front, they painted slogans and pulled up banners on the walls of the villages on both sides of the road.

The troops are moving south, and countless ammunition and supplies are also gathering south. All the information shows that the main force of the Subei Corps has been assembled and will attack Gaoyou again.

"The main force of the Chinese army has left Jieshou and marched towards Gaoyou!"

"There are at least 5000 troops dispatched by the Subei Corps this time."

"The vanguard of the Northern Subei Corps has arrived at the Daxian Temple."

......

The North Subei Corps marched south with great fanfare, and the hidden traitors and spies of the devils were also panicked, and hurriedly sent the news that the Subei Corps was about to attack Gaoyou through various channels.

"Your Excellency, Detachment Leader, the China North Subei Guerrilla Corps has been dispatched and is heading towards Gaoyou!" The devil's intelligence staff also reported to the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe immediately.

When the detachment leader Watanabe Shouyi received the news, he was also stunned. He didn't expect that the Subei Corps would dare to take the initiative to launch an attack.

"Is the information accurate?" Shouichi Watanabe, the leader of the Devil's Detachment, asked with a sullen face.

"It's absolutely true. A large number of Chinese troops have also been found to be active near the blockade. They show signs of launching a large-scale attack." The devil's intelligence staff replied.

"Hahaha, the Chinese people really overestimate themselves!" When he heard the news was accurate, Watanabe Shouichi, the devil's detachment leader, couldn't help laughing.

They now have six brigades of artillery and infantry in Gaoyou, and they are already on the alert.

The reason why they did not launch an attack to the north was mainly because they wanted to extort more benefits from the Nanjing puppet government.

But what I didn't expect was that before they launched an attack, the Subei Corps would take the initiative to send it to the door. This made the devil's detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi have the illusion that it would be easy to find nowhere to go.

"Closely monitor the movement of the Chinese army!"

"Order all the brigades in Gaoyou to immediately end their rest and enter a state of combat readiness!"

Watanabe Shouyi, the leader of the devil's detachment, became excited. Since the North Jiangsu Corps took the initiative to send it to the door, he had no reason to let it go.

Soon, all the devils in Gaoyou City moved together, distributed ammunition and supplies, and began active preparations for the attack of the Subei Corps.

At the emergency military meeting, after the advice of the staff, Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the Devils, decided to wait for work and let the frontline troops retreat one by one. After the Subei Corps was placed under Gaoyou City, they would concentrate their superior forces to wipe them out in one fell swoop!

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Gaoyou in the south of the Northern Subei Corps took up an offensive posture, and Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil detachment in Gaoyou City, did not dare to neglect, and was also actively preparing for the battle.

Although the leader of the devil's detachment, Watanabe Shouyi, has shrunk his troops since he took office, and has not fought a large-scale battle with the Subei Corps.

But under the shadow of a famous tree, the North Jiangsu Corps started in Huaiyin, and now it has relied on several tough battles, which has already made the devils have to pay attention.

The leader of the devil's detachment, Shouyi Watanabe, collected information from various aspects and several small-scale battles between the troops he sent and the Subei Corps. He already knew that he was facing a strong opponent.

Although the Subei Guerrilla Corps is not the main force of the regular army, it is not a mob that is about to collapse at the first touch.

After summing up the experience of several defeats, Watanabe Shouichi, the captain of the Devils, knew that the Subei Corps was very strong, so he decided to fight steadily, put the Subei Corps under Gaoyou City, and then concentrate the superior forces to eliminate them.

The devil's units near Gaoyou also received orders from the leader of the devil's detachment, Watanabe Shouichi, that is, not to fight recklessly with the Subei Corps to avoid unnecessary losses. Once each unit fights with the Subei Corps, they can choose to retreat , leading it to Gaoyou City.

Because the devils carried out the tactic of luring the enemy to go deep, the devils everywhere in the front were not busy investigating the enemy's situation, but were busy preparing to retreat.

While the devils were busy implementing the tactics to lure the enemy into deep, the main force of the North Jiangsu Commander who was still marching towards Gaoyou in the south during the day turned from the rear team to the front team, and went back directly along the way under the cover of night up.

The ammunition boxes transported southward by the Northern Subei Corps with great fanfare during the day were all empty, just to conceal the truth, and the real ammunition had already been secretly transported to Baoying.

All the troops marched towards Bao in an emergency overnight, while the third battalion in charge of the feint attack on the southern front and some local militia units still put up more banners with great fanfare to confuse the little devils.

"You guerrilla groups, starting today, will continue to attack and infiltrate the devil's blockade, so that the devil will mistake us for firepower probing!"

When the large troops turned northward quietly under the cover of night, Shen Biao, the commander of the third battalion who stayed on the southern line, was not idle.

Their three battalions have mobilized more than 400 officers and soldiers. Together with the local militia brothers who are familiar with the terrain, they will be mixed into as many as [-] guerrilla combat groups.

These fifty guerrilla combat teams will simultaneously launch large-scale sabotage and infiltration operations against the devils on a front that is more than 20 kilometers long.

The purpose of their sabotage and infiltration with such great fanfare is very simple, to create an illusion that the main force is about to launch a large-scale attack, so as to cover the main force turning north.

"Your targets are the strongholds of the devils and the puppet army, the artillery towers, bridges and various military stations. The time is set for two days, and you must retreat after two days!"

Once the northern line started fighting in the direction of Baoying, the devils would understand that the southern line was just a feint attack, and the infiltrating troops would be in danger at that time, so Shen Biao told them to withdraw in two days.

"Are the respective tasks clear now?"

Looking at the hundreds of brothers gathered under the night, Shen Biao didn't know how many of them could come back, but for the victory on the northern front, they had to attack to create the illusion of a full-scale attack.

"understand!"

These attacking brothers knew very well that there was no main force behind them, and the main force had already turned to Baoying on the northern line.

Although they now want to play the banner of the forward troops of the Northern Subei Corps, in fact, they are the main force on the southern front, and they are the only ones fighting on the southern front.

This also means that the brothers of their mere battalion will attack more than ten times as many enemies on the frontal battlefield.

This is a bold gamble. Once the enemy on the opposite side sees through, they are likely to be deep in the enemy-occupied area and have no time to withdraw.

Although they knew that this attack was very dangerous, none of the fifty guerrilla units flinched.

"Drink!"

These brothers who launched a feint attack can be said to be death squads, and they may never return. The battalion commander Shen Biao also made an exception and asked the logistics to get some wine.

"Whoa-"

The mud seals on the altars of wine were lifted, and the wine bowls in the hands of the brothers were filled with clear wine.
