In the headquarters of the Watanabe detachment in Gaoyou City, the leader of the devil detachment with bloodshot eyes, Watanabe Shouichi Saku, sat on a chair and smoked one cigarette after another, and the whole person was shrouded in smoke.

In the war room next to it, the devil's staff officers are also constantly marking the situation of the enemy and us on the sand table, and the battle map has been densely drawn with red and blue arrows.

The simultaneous attack of the Chinese army on the north and south fronts disrupted the plans of the devil soldiers, making it difficult for them to even judge where the main force of the Chinese army was.

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other side will win all battles, but now Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil detachment, knows nothing about the situation of the Northern Jiangsu Corps, so that he has fallen into a passive state.

"About two regiments of the Sulu guerrilla corps have already attacked from the direction of Taizhou."

"The Chinese army in the direction of Dongtai is also massing."

......

As Baoying and Gaoyou broke out into battle, the surrounding Chinese troops were like wolves smelling fishy, and they were suddenly ready to move, which made the mood of Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil detachment, even worse.

With such a large Chinese army massing, does the Chinese army still want to have another spring offensive?

Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil detachment, frowned, if that was the case, then their situation would become very dangerous.

Due to Yang Ling's sudden large-scale attack on Baoying, the defense of the head of the realm suddenly became empty, and the Sulu War Zone was worried that Yang Ling would not have time to return to the defense, causing the heavy troops of the devils stationed in Gaoyou to go north to capture the head of the realm, resulting in the erosion of the battle situation.

Therefore, the Sulu Theater Command issued combat missions to the surrounding friendly forces to intercept and contain the devils.

For a time, the regular troops and guerrilla troops in the vicinity of Dongtai, Raise Hands, Xinghua, and Gaoyou all took action one after another, and launched attacks on the strongholds of the devils and the towns where they were stationed.

Overnight, the originally peaceful Sulu theater of operations in Jiangsu suddenly became noisy, and first a large number of Chinese troops attacked Gaoyou.

Soon after, Baoying on the northern front was also opened, and Baoying's garrison commander Kawachi Tanshu sent a telegram saying that Baoying had also discovered a large-scale attack by Chinese troops.

But before Watanabe Shouichi, the leader of the devil's detachment, figured out that it was the main force of the Chinese army, the surrounding area quickly burned into flames.

Strongholds and turrets everywhere were attacked, and many people with hoes also appeared on the road and began to dig the road, and even a team of people separated a few hundred meters, and the raid battle began.

In the face of snowflake-like calls for help, the devil command in Gaoyou City was busy with a pot of porridge, and the staff officers analyzed all night whether this was the Chinese army to launch a large-scale military operation again.

The devil's intelligence agency is also full of confusion, and they haven't received any information at all, so why did they suddenly fight.

Now that there are wars going on everywhere, and the flames of war are still spreading to the surrounding towns, the devil's intelligence agencies are not idle, and they immediately take action to find out what happened.

However, for example, the Sulu guerrilla corps also suddenly received an order from the theater command at night, asking them to immediately organize troops to attack and fight to contain the devils.

Even they themselves didn't understand why they attacked, but since it was an order from the theater command, they couldn't help but carry it out.

Therefore, each unit sent a nearby force to attack the stronghold of the Japanese puppet army, and launched an attack on the town.

It doesn't matter if they don't fight, they are shocked when they hit it, because they find that the surrounding troops who are not subordinate to each other are attacking the devils, and they are all acting according to orders.

The commanders of the various units sent people to contact the friendly forces to get things straight, but everyone was at a loss.

Li Mingyang, commander-in-chief of the Sulu Theater, had to send a telegram to the Theater Command again to inquire about the situation, because the attack order was given by the Theater Command.

The staff officers of the theater command also knew that the Northern Jiangsu Corps was fighting Baoying, but they didn't know anything about the specific situation, because they were also asking about Baoying.

All the Chinese troops are attacking the devils in a daze, and the devils everywhere are also asking for help in a daze when they are suddenly attacked, and then they are chaotic.

Shen Biao's feint troops on the southern front were still bluffing and attacking the devils, but they found that many militia troops from other areas had been put into the battlefield.

Deputy battalion commander Luo Feng led an assault force to attack a devil's warehouse, but when they arrived, they found that several guerrilla detachments had already begun to attack.

Luo Feng hurriedly asked the commanders of these guerrilla detachments, who were not subordinate to each other, to inquire about the situation, and they said that they had received an order from the theater command to attack the devils and contain them.

As for where the devils are attacking and why they want to contain them, they don't know anything, but they are all soldiers, and it is their duty to obey orders, so they found a warehouse to start.

The commanders of several guerrilla detachments liked to pinch soft persimmons, and they all aimed their attacks at the devils' warehouses, and this led to the joint attack of several detachments on the devils' warehouses.

The scale of the war is spreading further, and the militia is beginning to attack everywhere, and those stragglers, routs, bandits, and gangs who want to fish in troubled waters are all taking action.

Some of these forces take revenge on each other, and some want to take advantage of the chaos to fight the strongholds of devils and make a profit.

They are dazzled under various banners, not to mention devils and puppet troops, and many Chinese troops cannot distinguish whether these are puppet armies or enemies.

Now everywhere is a pot of porridge, and the most bitter thing is the scattered Japanese puppet army, who may have just repelled a wave of guerrillas, and within half an hour, another wave of attacking teams arrived.

In the face of the chaotic battlefield situation, the staff officers of the devil's command are as big as cattle, and they can only order everywhere to stand firm and wait for help.

Just when the head of the devil's detachment, Watanabe Shouichi, hadn't figured it out, a devil staff officer strode over with a solemn face.

"Baoying's Squadron Leader Kawachi Duanshu sent a farewell telegram." The devil staff officer said in a deep voice.

Watanabe Shouichi, the captain of the devil's detachment, threw away the cigarette in his hand and snatched the telegram from the staff officer's hand, his face full of disbelief.

A fully staffed squadron plus two units of a pseudo-military battalion was wiped out overnight?

How is this possible! Could the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Japanese Army not last even one night?

"Report!"

"The reconnaissance aircraft of the aviation unit found a large-scale Chinese army in action near Baoying." The devil's operational staff officer also hurriedly walked over with a telegram.

"We judge that all the attacks are to cover the attack on Baoying by the Shina Army, and the main force of the Shina Army should be in Baoying."

All the evidence now shows that the main force of the Northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps that appeared outside Gaoyou City was just a cover, and their real main force was in Baoying.

Watanabe Shouichi, the captain of the devil's detachment, felt that he was being played, and angrily tore the message in his hand to pieces: "Bastard! ”
