Chapter 964: Undercurrents are surging

Jieshou Town has become a crowded military station, a large number of people from Gaoyou north to Huaiyin poured into the town, and the local armed forces wearing various costumes also got the news overnight, and they all arrived here one after another, ready to wait for Yang Ling's dispatch.

The town that had been depressed suddenly became crowded with so many people, numb and empty people with packages on their backs, who had walked all night, exhausted and ready to rest here while watching the situation.

After all, no one wants to leave their homeland, and if the troops from the south block the devils, there is no need for them to continue north, maybe they can go south and return home in a few days, and many people have this kind of thought.

In addition to these crowded people, those armed men with guns on their backs roamed around in groups, and the only two restaurants in the town were full, and the sound of shouting and punching could be heard from time to time.

Some people who are good at seizing business opportunities also took action, and began to sell much-needed food and clothes to protect them from the cold, and the streets were steaming, and the smell of various foods and shouts were intertwined, so that Jieshou Town showed a strange prosperity before the Great War.

"Good dogs don't get in the way, get out of the way!"

"You say one more word to Lao Tzu, believe it or not, I will collapse you!"

"Damn, beat Lao Tzu, kill me!"

......

Many powerful local armed men in the vicinity of Gaoyou also moved north with the fleeing civilians, clashing with local armed men in the streets from time to time, and in just one morning, there were no less than a dozen brawls alone.

"Robbery, robbery!"

On this side of the street, two groups of people were fighting and making a mess of the neighborhood, when someone suddenly shouted in the crowd of onlookers.

Many habitual thieves blended into the crowd and began to steal while the people were not looking, and if they were discovered, they turned into open robbery, and the whole town was in a mess, and there was an atmosphere of anxiety and restlessness.

It had only been a day since Yang Ling and the others arrived in Jieshou Town, and he and a group of staff officers were busy in the house finalizing the details of the plan for the next big battle, and they couldn't take care of the security in the town.

Most of the officers at all levels under his command were sent out, either to contact the local armed forces and let them come to the border for a meeting, or to go to the countryside to raise military rations, and everyone was busy in a race against time.

Many enemy elements hiding among the people also took the opportunity to stir up trouble and fan the flames against the people who were unhappy when they left home, inciting their emotions.

"We live our duty, why do we have to flee, it's not all the guerrillas who have attracted the devils, if you want me to say, all this is the fault of the guerrillas, if there is no guerrillas tossing around all day long, the Japanese will not trouble us for no reason, the big guy said yes."

These onlookers had just gone through a night's trek, and the exhaustion and hunger had made them complain about all this, and they were ignited by such a fanning that they were about to explode like powder kegs.

"I don't think the guerrillas have any good intentions, they outsiders won't really come to help us, have you ever seen them fight devils, no! They will only snatch the food we have worked so hard to grow in the name of fighting devils, and force us to raise bullshit anti-Japanese taxes! ”

"Yes, we've been robbed of money!"

"We've never seen them fight devils!"

......

Seeing that the emotions of the people were stirred, the enemy agents hidden in the crowd showed knowing smiles, and they continued to move on to the next step.

"The Japanese said that they are here to help us, to establish the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and they are not dealing with us ordinary people, they are dealing with the high-ranking officials of the government in Chongqing, and those high-ranking officials who know how to embezzle money and drink our blood, and those corrupt high-ranking officials who are not going to die well, since they are not dealing with us, then we cannot be guilty of going against the Japanese."

"But the Japanese also kill people, and many villages have been slaughtered by the Japanese...... "Someone questioned.

The instigators retorted loudly: "Do you know why those villages were slaughtered, because they are the stronghold of the guerrillas, and they help the guerrillas, that is, the high-ranking officials who help Chongqing eat people and do not spit out bones, and they brought it on themselves!" ”

"The guerrillas are a scourge, they have brought disasters, not only should we not help them, but we should also drive them out of the Soviet Union, as long as they stop attacking the Japanese everywhere, the Japanese will not be angry with us, we can live a good life, live in peace and stability as before!"

"We don't need guerrillas from Chongqing, we want autonomy! Only through self-government can we enjoy freedom and peace, and we will not resist the Japanese, but join hands with the Japanese to build a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere......

Many traitors and enemy agents spread rumors and incite the emotions of the common people in the crowd, and the whole capital was surging with an undercurrent, and all the grievances and complaints began to be transferred to the guerrilla officers and soldiers who were guarding the points in various places.

Many of these low-level people are very easy to be instigated, and the devil spies and traitors are very good at taking advantage of this, they want to make the guerrillas lose the support of the people.

Under the secret flickering of these people, the eyes of the people looking at the guerrilla officers and soldiers guarding them were no longer admiration and admiration, but a kind of hatred, hatred that made them lose their homes.

But what these people don't know is that it is not the guerrillas who have made them lose their homes, but the devils, if it were not for the devils to invade China, then there would be no war, and they would be able to live in peace, but now they are angry and incomprehensible.

Many guerrilla officers and soldiers guarding warehouses and key roads were not only subjected to the cynicism of the people, but some even secretly threw stones at them and scolded them to get out of the Soviet Union.

Of course, the common people did not dare to go too far, after all, the guerrilla officers and soldiers had guns in their hands, and they still had some fear of those who carried them.

Uprooted, exhausted and cold, the people are easily inflamed, and under a series of incitements by traitors and enemy agents, the people are ready to move.

And those traitors and Japanese spies who succeeded in their plots sneered in their hearts, as long as all the people were instigated, then the guerrillas would be beaten away by the people without their troops coming.

"You must go deeper into the people, use your experience to tell the story of being bullied and robbed by the guerrillas, and when everyone is angry, call for demonstrations, you must make it impossible for the guerrillas to gain a foothold here......

"But the guerrillas have guns in their hands, and they will suppress them."

"I know that they will suppress it, and if we can get them to shoot at the people, then we can take the opportunity to hype, not only the Soviet Union and China, but the whole region to let the people know about the atrocities of the guerrillas, and then let the guerrillas have nowhere to hide, no food to collect, and become street rats that everyone shouts and beats......"

In an elaborately decorated room in Jieshou Town, a large group of spies and traitors have gathered, meeting to carry out the next step in their plan, which is to make the guerrillas the target of public criticism.
