Chapter 1017: The Awakened People

"Someone was sent to find the wounded from the battlefield overnight and send them down for treatment, in such a cold weather, the brothers were injured and couldn't last long......

With the last stubborn devil soldiers being completely wiped out, the Northern Jiangsu Corps won a complete victory, but Yang Ling, as the commander, did not ease up at all.

He knew how this battle was fought, it was completely fought by the brothers who were not afraid of death, and in the core of the battlefield, it had become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

He was very worried about the safety of those old brothers, those brothers who had followed him all the way to the bloody battle, what happened to them now, Yang Ling didn't know, but as a commander, even if he was worried, he couldn't show it.

"The first and second battalions of the reserve battalion each sent two or two companies of troops to set up a guard position to the south, responsible for covering and cleaning up the battlefield, and the matter of clearing out the fleeing devils and stragglers will be handed over to those local militia armies, and the pursuing troops will be collected as soon as possible."

This is a big battle, although the Northern Jiangsu Corps has won a decisive victory, but there are still many fleeing devil stragglers on the run, and all the troops have already scattered to chase them out.

But Yang Ling knew that the crisis had not been resolved, and in the direction of Gaoyou in the south, the devils had also gathered heavy troops, and this devil's infantry brigade was only the vanguard of the devils.

But he also pinned his hopes that the vanguard could pass this bloody battle, and could scare the devils in Gaoyou, so that they would not dare to act rashly, and give the Northern Jiangsu Corps a chance to breathe.

It is very difficult to fight behind enemy lines, and the troops have to fight bloody battles with little devils to seize living space, and because of the dangers, they have to tense their nerves all the time.

Now that the Northern Soviet Army has controlled the form of the battlefield, it would be good to hand over the stragglers who have fled to the local militia.

If the Chinese officers and soldiers were defeated, most of them would have survived, but the little devils would not have had such good luck.

Because the little devils are an invading army, their evil deeds of burning, killing and looting make every countryman hate, and when the devils are in groups, no one dares to violate the majesty of the devil soldiers.

But once the little devil is left alone, then he will quietly become a missing person, because in the land of the Chinese, even those unarmed people dare to attack the devil's stragglers.

And after these people work together to kill the devil's stragglers, they generally keep their mouths silent for the rest of their lives for fear of retaliation, so it's not just the army that fights devils, in fact, many people are participating, but no one knows about it, and it has become a secret that they have guarded all their lives.

Now that Yang Ling has sent Zhang Leopard, Xiao Yan and other local militia back, they are waiting in the direction of the devil's retreat, and there is a reward for killing the enemy one by one, Yang Ling believes that if the devil stragglers want to escape back to Gaoyou, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.

"Inform the news of the world's first victory to the theater headquarters and deputy headquarters, and the officers and men of our Northern Jiangsu Corps will fight bloodily for a day and a night, and completely annihilate a brigade of devils!"

Since the victory has been won, there is no need to hide it, and it must be announced in a dignified manner, so as to boost the morale of the army and the people in the occupied areas!

The annihilation of a fully manned brigade of devils is an unprecedented victory, which can at least reverse the situation in the occupied areas behind enemy lines in a short period of time, and on the premise that the devils cannot figure out the situation, the devils will not dare to act rashly, and win time for the guerrillas to recuperate.

In the battle behind the enemy, sometimes it is not only the lack of ammunition, but also the most difficult to be able to build a foothold, and now the great victory on the periphery of the head of the world has allowed the base area of Huaiyin in northern Jiangsu to develop steadily, and the arsenals and clothing factories can develop rapidly without being affected by the war.

As long as it survives this period of time, then after the Northern Jiangsu Corps that rolled out of the blood and fire re-replenishes ammunition, materials and soldiers, it will be a tough force that makes the devils fearful.

Of course, the Northern Jiangsu Corps is lucky, it can fight stronger and stronger, and can completely annihilate the devils in order to win the space for survival and development.

However, many of the guerrilla troops sent behind enemy lines were not so lucky, and they had to fight repeatedly in the face of the joint strangulation of the Japanese army, the puppet army, local gangs and other forces.

Many troops are fighting and are gone, because the troops that lack weapons and ammunition and the troops that have been fighting at high intensity cannot be replenished, and even if they are strong, they will be exhausted.

This is also the reason why the nearly one million guerrilla troops sent by Chongqing behind enemy lines disappeared after just two years, because many of them were wiped out in isolation and without help.

The people who had been waiting for news at the head of the realm had been waiting for news all day, and their eyes were fixed on the battlefield with the rumbling of artillery to the south.

These people had stayed behind to help build fortifications and trenches in order to be able to eat the gruel provided by the Northern Jiangsu Corps every day, but now they are extremely worried about the officers and soldiers of the Northern Jiangsu Corps who are marching to the battlefield in the cold wind, because as Chinese, they hope that their army can achieve victory.

No matter what their impression of the Chinese army was, and whether they had cursed those troops who had been retreating in private, but when the devils really came, they still sincerely prayed for their own army and secretly cheered for them.

The battle began last night until now, from dark to dawn, and then until dark, standing at the head of the realm, you can overlook the large thick and thick smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield in the south, which will not disperse for a long time.

But the people are not soldiers after all, they are not allowed to get close to the battlefield, and they can only wait for news in the back

When the brother who reported the victory galloped back from the battlefield on a fast horse, ready to announce the news of the victory of the devils who had been annihilated by the Northern Jiangsu Army, the brother saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

In the cold and windy field outside the head of the realm, the people with scythes and sticks in their hands were trudging towards the battlefield, and the mighty black pressure was overwhelming, and everyone was panicked, but their steps were unusually firm, because all the troops were pressed up, and no one stopped them from approaching the battlefield.

When they heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of them, the people with various cold weapons in their hands stopped in unison, full of vigilance.

By the light of the torches, they saw the brother on horseback, dirty, broken and bloodstained, and when they saw the appearance of this brother, their hearts sank to the bottom, and they thought that they had lost the battle ahead.

"Boss, is it defeated, where did the devil rush?" A middle-aged man in the lead saw the brother coming on horseback and cautiously asked.

"What are you?" Seeing these men with scythes and clubs in their hands, the brothers who came back to report the victory were full of doubts.

"Boss, we are also Chinese, you are fighting to the death with the devil in front, we can't be idle and watch the show!" Now that you're defeated, it's up to us! A dark-skinned man shouted arrogantly.

"Yes, you have fought us all, we are all Chinese men who are not afraid of death! The Chinese have no seeds! The crowd shouted loudly.

Seeing these passionate and courageous people, and the eyes of the brothers who came back to report the victory, he felt for the first time what it means to be united and what it means to be united!

These people knew that the sickles and sticks in their hands could not fight the machine guns and cannons of the devils, but they still came resolutely, they were no longer cowardly and retreated, and they fought bravely!

Looking at the people who were shouting at each other and about to go to the battlefield, the brother wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Our Northern Soviet Corps did not lose the battle! We've won! I wiped out a brigade of devils, and I came back to report the victory! ”

The voice of the brother who reported the victory echoed in the cold wind, making the people who already had the heart to die stagnate.

"Boss, what you said is true?" Someone asked in a whisper of uncertainty.

"It's true! Commander Yang is leading the troops to chase devils all over the mountains, and I came back to tell you the good news! We've won! The brother shouted excitedly.

The mighty team of people who were ready to fight the little devil was silent for a few seconds, and then then erupted into a tsunami-like cheer.
