After the war between China and Japan began, the Eighth Route Army launched guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, recovered a large number of lost land, and established a series of anti-Japanese bases behind enemy lines, including Shanxi, Chaji, Jinxi, Shanxi, Shandong and Henan.

The Eighth Route Army actively resisted the war, which caused great panic among the Japanese invaders. The Japanese devoted 540,000 of the 860,000 Japanese troops who invaded China to the public security war in the occupied areas, and established many bunkers around the border areas, trying to block and divide the border areas.

In March 1939, Shin Tada, commander of the Japanese Front Army in North China, named this blockade operation "Cage Policy".

The specific measures are: use railways as the columns, highways as the chains, bunkers as locks, supplemented by blocking ditches and blocking walls, forming a network cage for guerrilla areas and anti-Japanese base areas, and compressing and surrounding the anti-Japanese team.

The intention was to restrict the mobility of the anti-Japanese armed forces so that the Japanese army could send troops to launch surprise attacks, eliminate the anti-Japanese armed forces, and destroy the anti-Japanese base areas.

According to this policy, from early 1939 to August 1940 alone, the Japanese army restored 2,000 kilometers of railways and 15,000 kilometers of highways. They also built bunkers and strongholds every 10 places on both sides of these roads, with a total of more than 3,000.

At the same time, the Japanese army also dug rivers and ditches in the lakes and Pingyuan area, cut the anti-Japanese base areas into small pieces, and took the puppet troops to "mopping up", "eating", and "clearing the countryside", committing countless bloody crimes.

August 1940.

In order to smash the enemy's "cage", on the night when the left-behind troops in the border area surrounded and suppressed the political bandits of Fang Lao Liu, the main force of the Eighth Route Army concentrated a large number of troops to launch a large-scale attack on the traffic lines and strongholds in the enemy-occupied areas in North China.

The specific plan for the operation is to remove countless large and small strongholds on the major Japanese railways and highways in North China, not leave a single rail, not leave a sleeper, and not leave a bridge, completely paralyzing the enemy's transportation network in North China.

The most important goal is the Zhengtai Railway connecting Shanxi Province and Hebei Province. In this battle, the Eighth Route Army headquarters dispatched more than 100 regiments of troops.

The first to launch the attack was the main force of the Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi. They successfully mobilized the Japanese Independence Mixed Brigade stationed in Fenyang. The Japanese cage was torn apart, and the war was everywhere on the ground in North China. Yoshio Shinozuka from Taiyuan was caught off guard.

"Mosie?Mosie?"

In the 1st Army Command, Yoshio Shinozuka smashed the microphone back to the phone with a clang, acting as the Japanese staff in the war room. The officers were silent, and no one dared to touch the commander's bad intentions at this time.

Half a night, just half a night, the security situation in Shanxi Province and even North China changed drastically, and no data points were lost.

Now even the Niangzi, who was guarding heavily, was surrounded by sudden resistance elements. The telephone lines and wireless communications were all destroyed, and the Zhengtai Railway may be at risk of interruption.

Once there is a problem with the Zhengtai Railway, coal, grain and other resources in Shanxi Province cannot be transported out, and the supply of materials on the Japanese front line will inevitably become short of resources. No one can afford it after the base camp is held accountable.

"Baga!"

Yoshio Shinozuka cursed angrily and immediately issued an order: "Recalling the Independent Mixed Brigade 16, tell their brigade commander that he must return to the station before dawn to block the traffic line leading to the Masahira Railway.

The Army Aviation Forces were ordered to take off immediately and conduct tactical reconnaissance and support on the strongholds along the Zhengtai Railway. The Empire spent countless money on the Air Force, and darkness was not an excuse for not being able to fight.

Then we will generate electricity from Beiping and inform Commander Tada Jun that the 1st Army needs tactical guidance. Our strength alone can no longer effectively curb the destruction of the rebels. After the war, I will apologize to His Majesty the Heavenly Locust and the Base Camp."

After saying that, he sat back on the chair weakly, staring at the map of Jin Province on the wall, as if he had seen countless Eighth Route Army soldiers breaking out of the darkness and tearing the 1st Army's defense zone into pieces.

Thinking of the contempt and ignorance of the underground army by those big figures in Tokyo, Yoshio Shinozuka smiled self-deprecatingly. In just a few years, the Eighth Route Army had grown into a force that cannot be ignored. In the future, North China will not be too quiet.

At the same time, Niangzi closed the station.

The Japanese Type 94 armored train rumbled near the station, and the situation of the enemy and us suddenly changed.

This type of armored train has two compartments equipped with fourteen-year 100mm high-level dual-purpose guns and machine guns, and one compartment equipped with two 88 75mm anti-aircraft guns.

The rest, such as the front guard vehicle, the shooting command vehicle, the power vehicle, the power vehicle and the auxiliary carbohydrate truck, are equipped with two heavy machine guns, and the firepower is very fierce.

The Eighth Route Army sacrificed dozens of soldiers in a short time, and the station that was about to be captured almost changed hands. It was about to be re-occupied by the Japanese army, and the situation was critical.

In desperation, the Eighth Route Army troops participating in the war were preparing to use trains to hit armored vehicles, but the train and armored train were not on the same line, so the soldiers divided into two groups, one by one, one by one, and the other one was responsible for driving the train and the other one was responsible for turning the switch.

The enemy on the armored train and on the ground discovered the intentions of the Eighth Route Army and strengthened the defense of the switch. The competition between the enemy and us continued to repeat, and the switch entrance was full of corpses from both sides.

An Eighth Route Army soldier was shot a few meters away from the switch. He used his last bit of strength to hold the handle, pressed the switch tightly, and opened the door to victory with his life.

The locomotive, which was already ready to lift the pressure, immediately rushed towards the armored train. The Japanese inside the train looked at the Eighth Route Army soldiers with resolute eyes on the front of the car opposite and wailed in despair. Someone wanted to jump off the train, but unfortunately it was too late.

With a rumbling sound, the locomotive hit the armored train hard. Under the huge impact force, both of them broke off the rails. The overturning boiler quickly detonated the ammunition, and a violent explosion sounded instantly.

Without the support of the armored train, the overall situation of Niangziguan has been decided!

Qingjian County, border area.

The battle to encircle Fang Laoliu also entered the last moment. When the Eighth Route Army teams attracted frontal bandits, several other teams of soldiers wade through the water and detour to both sides of the bandit nest and suddenly opened fire.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! It is said that Fang Laoliu's subordinates include the remnants of the Guo Army, the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army and some officers. We should not have imagined the defense on the flanks.

But the reason why bandits are called bandits is that they have no discipline and have not undergone regular training. Even Sun Wu cannot command the command of his arms and fingers under a scattered sand, let alone a bunch of half-slave officers.

Being able to gather the personnel and resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army head-on without disintegrating, these small bandit leaders are already worthy of the little military pay given by Fang Laoliu.

As for side defense and back-interruption, even most of the Guo army troops cannot do this.

When the war reached this point, it was only a matter of time before Fang Laoliu's defeat, which was normal. Fighting a group of bandits with the combat effectiveness of the left-behind troops in the border area was really a cannon to hit mosquitoes.

In the past, Fang Laoliu was able to escape the encirclement and suppression, but it was entirely protected by the Guo army. Now that Zuo Chong has come forward, some people in the Second War Zone dare not even let go.

The gunshots extended from the foot of the mountain toward the bandit nest on the top of the mountain. From time to time, the messengers came from the front line to the mountain temple, which brought the latest progress to the observation group and Deputy Minister Li. After learning that the enemy surrounded by the outside world was eliminated, Deputy Minister Li decided to move the observation position forward.

Under the protection of the southern Shanxi Guerrilla Detachment and the anti-war alliance, Zuo Zhong and others walked to the Xiaoshi Bridge. The Eighth Route Army soldiers who saw along the way were all very morale. Some of the slightly injured soldiers refused to step down the line of fire. After a little bandage, they continued to attack the bandit nest, which made Xu Enzeng stunned.

Are there any such soldiers in the Guo army? There are many, but most of them are single soldiers or small units that are out of national hatred and family grudges. The entire Guo army rarely has such high morale and desire to fight.

The reason is that a large part of the Fruit Army lacks faith and does not understand any country or nation. They join the army to fight for food. Some of them are even more powerful men who have been forced to fight. You can imagine how they perform when fighting.

Following the combat troops, everyone winded up along a mountain road and arrived near the bandit's nest in no time. At this time, a leader under Fang Laoliu took several hostages and hid in a room, shouting that the Eighth Route Army would make way.

These hostages were all ordinary people around them. Seeing this, the Eighth Route Army's smooth attack was absent, but a 5-man team took over the action after a moment.

Unlike ordinary Eighth Route Army soldiers, members of this squad only carry short guns, which are agile and quick in their movements. The posture and tactical movements of holding guns are also very different from those of ordinary soldiers.

"Second post, this is..."

Gui Youguang, who was watching the game, pointed at the other party and stammered and said to Zuo Chong.

"My left-handed action technique!"

Zuo Chong said what he hadn't finished, word by word.

Good guy, this elite Eighth Route Army team not only uses left-style action techniques, but also is the latest version of the action textbook of the Military Commission training class. Many official members of the Military Commission have never been exposed to it.

The underground party is indeed everywhere, and even the "highly guarded" military regime was penetrated like a sieve. Zuo Zhong thought happily, but on the surface he looked at what Deputy Minister Li wanted to say.

"Deputy Director Zuo, don't be impatient."

Deputy Minister Li took the lead and blocked his words: "This is your information we seized from Japanese spies. If you have any questions, you can ask the Japanese."

Zuo Zhong, who had a "blush complexion", suppressed his smile and watched the Eighth Route Army soldiers break into the room. After a few crisp gunshots, the hostages were successfully rescued. The battle at the bandit nest was announced to end, but the bandit leader Fang Laoliu disappeared.

According to the member of the social department of the border area responsible for the investigation, Fang Laoliu fled to the Guojun Defense Zone several miles away not long ago. Deputy Minister Li looked at Zuo Chong after hearing this. The meaning was very obvious. Can you do what you, Deputy Director Zuo, agree?

Zuo Chong looked up slightly and said confidently: "Don't worry, those military leaders dare not make tricks. Fang Laoliu still has a way out if he doesn't go to the Guojun Defense Zone. If he goes, he will definitely die!"

The function of the glove is to protect the owner. If the glove is broken, there is only one fate that will be abandoned.

As he was speaking, a machine gun sounded like fried beans in the direction of the Guojun Defense Zone. Zuo Chong smiled and nodded at Deputy Minister Li, then stood by the cliff and looked at the loess land that was already dawn.

In the faint morning light, teams of Eighth Route Army soldiers carried weapons on their shoulders and strode towards the sun, singing the Eighth Route Army March 1. The song of victory was so beautiful and inspiring.

“Forward, forward,

Our team is facing the sun,

Stepping on the earth of the motherland,

Carrying the hope of the nation,

................

We are good at fighting athletes,

We are the armed forces of the nation.”

Xu Enzeng looked at this scene and murmured, is there really no hope for the Party and the country?

A deadly hard-working element like him, after seeing the performance of the Eighth Route Army, he couldn't help but doubt the future of someone and the Fruit Party. People's hearts cannot be violated, and the trend of history is also unstoppable!
