Chapter 981: Longing for War

Taro Sano is obviously a very patient person, his troops have been massed to Gaoyou one after another, and countless heavy ammunition arrives in Gaoyou every day, but he has no follow-up actions, but quietly dormant like a hunter, waiting for the opportunity to strike a fatal blow.

As time passed, Gaoyou, which had been reduced to ruins, became bustling with people again, and the restaurants and shops that had been taken over by the maintenance association opened one after another, but the customers were no longer those simple Chinese people, but those devil soldiers who crossed their swords and guns.

These devil soldiers who were transferred from all over the country to the Sano detachment were eager to make meritorious contributions, and many of them were previously heavy baggage and engineer units in the rear, and did not have the opportunity to go to the front.

Every great victory on the front line made their eyes red with jealousy, but because of the relationship between the troops, even if they arrived at the front line, they could not directly enter the battle, but watched the friendly troops award meritorious service, and the bitterness in their hearts was indescribable.

But this time the opportunity was placed in front of them, and they were also organized into combat units, and they would have the opportunity to directly fight the Chinese army head-on, which made them excited.

Even more excited than them were the reinforcements who had just been replenished from the country to the Chinese battlefield, and due to the protracted delay in the war, coupled with the fierceness of the Chinese army's winter offensive, the devil had already begun the fifth national mobilization in China.

A large number of supplementary recruits were urgently sent to the Chinese battlefield through troop carriers, and were directly integrated into the various units to participate in the battle.

Encouraged by all kinds of propaganda, these recruits set foot on the troop carriers in a frenzied atmosphere, and they had already obtained too many heroic deeds from the newspapers and other sources.

And they also want to make a contribution like the brave predecessors in those troops, and then return triumphantly, so they are fanatical and excited, eager to go into battle and make achievements immediately.

It's a pity that they arrived at Gaoyou in a mighty way, but they didn't receive any battle orders, but wandered around Gaoyou City with nothing to do.

At the beginning, these reinforcements were still very curious about everything, and they jumped into the house in groups of three or five, and followed the veterans to loot the property that the Chinese people could not take away, which made them feel very satisfied, and the feeling of easily obtaining property made them very happy.

Later, even the cracks in the walls were raided, and the devil soldiers could no longer find anything of value of value, so they had to turn their eyes to the outskirts of the city.

So hordes of devils began to appear in the towns and villages of Gaoyou, and they broke into every settlement of the people with bayonets, and then tossed the miasma, but they always returned with a full load.

Those people who were stranded in the local area and did not want to leave, and had illusions about devils, suffered, and in the face of these devils with bayonets, they felt for the first time that they were so powerless, and they experienced what it was like to be slaves of the country.

The life of the devil soldiers was extremely comfortable this winter, and the food looted from the people's homes, chickens, ducks, fish, pigs and other things made them eat with oily faces.

It's a pity that this kind of enjoyment didn't last long, after all, the supplies are limited, and after the ghost soldiers looted uncontrollably, many people fled, and the ghost soldiers returned less and less when they were fully loaded, and in the end nothing could be looted.

Although the headquarters of the Devil Central China Dispatch Army repeatedly asked Taro Sano to restrain the troops and harass less of those good people, Taro Sano looked down on the Chinese at all, feeling that his soldiers had robbed them of something, which was worthy of them, and in order to boost morale, the order was not carried out thoroughly.

Taro Sano turned a blind eye, causing the troops below to become more unscrupulous, so that the looting situation became out of control.

But in the end, the devil soldiers had nothing to rob, and every place was either swept by other troops, or the buildings were empty, and they became empty villages.

The devil soldiers, who had not gained anything for several days, were in a bad mood and could not enjoy the days of eating meat and drinking every day, and the huge psychological gap forced them to set their sights on the areas controlled by the Chinese guerrillas.

However, that is the area controlled by the Chinese guerrillas, and the situation is complicated, although the lone little devil wants to go over, but he has no courage, after all, they are also clear about the prestige of the guerrillas.

Since a single devil does not dare to go deep into the guerrilla zone, then only a large army can crush the past and turn the guerrilla zone into an occupied zone, and they can once again loot and enjoy themselves unscrupulously.

"Attack! Make the people of China pay for the war! ”

"There is a lot of food and flower girls in the area controlled by the Chinese guerrillas! Destroy the guerrillas, and they will all become the pockets of the Empire! ”

"The Fifth Brigade is all invited to fight, and is willing to attack as an advance force!"

"We are not here to visit the mountains and rivers, we are here to conquer China, and we ask to attack!"

"The soldiers of the empire are not afraid of war! The glory of bushido makes it impossible for us to rest on our laurels again! ”

……

The devil soldiers who were eager to go to the guerrilla zone to loot became noisy, desperate for war, eager to rush into the guerrilla zone immediately, and use the knives and guns in their hands to earn wealth for themselves.

Because of the looting, many ordinary little devils can now return to China and become rich people with enough wealth, but their desires and ambitions are endless, and they are eager to plunder more wealth.

The devil soldiers who were ordered to assemble in Gaoyou became fanatical and belligerent, they gathered at the gate of the headquarters every day to ask for battle, and even some troops wrote a bloody letter asking for war, and the cry of war resounded through Gaoyou, and the morale of the ghost soldiers was unprecedentedly high.

And all this was seen by the devil commander Taro Sano, who even secretly sent people to pry and encourage the emotions of the soldiers, making them more hostile to the Chinese and the idea that the occupation of China was legitimate.

In order to boost morale, Taro Sano, the commander of the devils, even sent veterans from the infantry squadrons who had withdrawn from the head of the border to give speeches about the atrocities of the so-called guerrillas......

Under the influence of various factors, the mood for war has become unprecedentedly high, and they are eager for war and the wealth that war brings.

When the fanaticism of the devil soldiers reached its peak, Taro Sano also knew that it was time to attack, and if he didn't attack again, he would be burned instead, because some people privately said that he was a coward and asked to remove him, which was not his original intention, nor was it something he wanted to see.

Moreover, after this period of dormancy, the follow-up troops have all arrived in Gaoyou, and the warehouses are full of supplies and ammunition, so he has no reason to hold back any longer.

The tide of troops asking for war in various parts of Gaoyou City was still noisy, and the soldiers who had nowhere to vent were running around shouting slogans, they were clamoring to set foot in the central and northern parts of the Soviet Union and completely incorporate Jiangsu into the imperial territory.

The hall of the Gaoyou County Government has been converted into a temporary headquarters by the devils, and although it is cold and windy outside, the spacious combat hall is as warm as spring.

Five charcoal stoves were blazing, the kettles placed on the charcoal fires were steaming white, and the benches on both sides of the long tables in the war hall were already full of devils and commanders at all levels.

Although the meeting had not yet begun, the eyes of the commanders at all levels of these devils flashed with fanatical excitement, because they knew that Taro Sano had summoned them over to chat, so there was only one reason, that is, they were finally going to war again, and they had never realized that they were so eager for war.
