    At the moment when all parties were nervously preparing for war, the so-called "security war" that the Japanese and puppets had prepared for a long time suddenly started without warning.~~

    After the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Kuomintang government adjusted its military strategy and still adopted all-out resistance on the frontal battlefield. On the battlefield behind enemy lines, guerrilla armies from all walks of life continued to attack.  The Japanese and puppets only occupied points and lines in North China, and the vast rural areas became the domain of guerrilla forces. This flexible and changeable guerrilla tactics gave the Japanese and puppets a huge headache. They contained a large number of Japanese and puppet troops, and the war of resistance truly entered a stalemate stage.  ¡­

    The Japanese army summarized the experience of several previous "punitive" and "suppression" operations and learned many lessons. They especially adopted the Kwantung Army's method of dealing with the Anti-Japanese Alliance in the Northeast and used the tactic of dividing their forces and attacking together.

    This phase of the public security campaign was launched very suddenly, and the target of the first attack was a surprise to everyone, because the first target of the Japanese and puppet attack turned out to be Sun Dianying's Fifth Army.

    Sun Dianying's Fifth Army occupied Lin County. It has a complete organization and the largest military strength in northern Henan.  Since arriving in northern Henan, Sun Dianying learned from Shanxi's Yan Xishan and also started to play the "dancing on three eggs" method.

    He swore in front of Chiang Kai-shek that he was determined to fight to the end, and used this to apply for food and salary supplies from the government; at the same time, Sun Dianying introduced a large number of forces from the Eighth Route Army into his own team, hoping that the Eighth Route Army would help him improve the combat effectiveness of the team; in addition,  Sun Dianying secretly communicated with the Japanese side. When the Japanese and puppets attacked, the New Fifth Army usually retreated after a little resistance. After the Japanese and puppets retreated, his New Fifth Army swaggered back to its original garrison.

    Sun Dianying's trick of dancing on three eggs did bring him a lot of benefits. The New Fifth Army was a miscellaneous force, but Chiang Kai-shek did not dare to give up on him at all. In order to prevent him from defecting to the enemy and becoming a traitor or defecting to the Eighth Route Army,  The national government's military pay and supplies never dared to be interrupted; in order to win over the strength of the New Fifth Army, the Eighth Route Army sent many political and military cadres to help Sun Dianying train the troops; and on the Japanese and puppet sides, Sun Dianying, like Sun Dianying,  The tactic of resisting but not resisting best suits their wishes. Therefore, the Japanese and puppets also fought against the New Fifth Army and had no intention of driving them to a dead end.  txt e-book download**

    The Japanese and puppet attack on Sun Dianying's troops was launched in the morning. The Japanese and puppet troops attacking the first battalion of Sun Dianying's new first regiment had a squadron. Assisting the Japanese attack was a brigade of the Imperial Association Army.

    Sun Dianying was not satisfied after receiving the establishment of the New Fifth Army given by the Military Commission. He continued to recruit bandit troops and encouraged the members of the Temple Taoist Association he controlled to join the New Fifth Army.  Sun Dianying's team was getting bigger and bigger, and the establishment assigned by the Military Commission was far from enough to include these people, so Sun Dianying established designations such as the New Fifth Army's New So-and-So Regiment, Guerrilla Column, and Special Column to combine these people.  The mob was all brought in. The newly formed first regiment of the New Fifth Army this time the Japanese and puppets attacked was exactly this type of armed force.

    The 1st Battalion of the newly formed First Regiment can be regarded as Sun Dianying's direct unit, because his regiment commander and battalion commander are both small leaders of the Temple Taoist Association. Sun Dianying is known as the "teacher" of the Temple Taoist Association, and the members of the Temple Taoist Association respect Sun Dianying.  That is absolute loyalty.

    The first battalion of the new first regiment is stationed in three villages. There are more than 300 households in these three villages, and the people all have the same surname - Guo. According to the terrain, these three villages are called Shangguo Village and Zhongguo Village respectively.  Among them, Shangguo Village is built on the mountain, Shuiguo Village is built at the foot of the mountain, and Guo Village is built at the intersection of hills and plains.

    The territory and army of Sun Dianying, who was born as a warlord, were very important to a non-lineage general like him. If he had no troops and no territory, he believed that the Chairman in Chongqing would never be merciful and he would immediately withdraw the New Fifth Army.  serial number.  In order to protect their own territory, but also to maintain their status.

    Although Sun Dianying did not have the intention or determination to fight to the death against the Japanese and puppets, he still made great efforts to equip his team.  For example, the equipment of the new first regiment, which is closest to the Japanese army, is not bad. Each battalion is equipped with two mortars, and each platoon is equipped with at least one Czech mortar. The soldiers are also carefully selected young men.  Soldiers, it can be said that the equipment and combat effectiveness of the newly formed first regiment are not inferior to those of other national armies, so they are placed on the front line against the enemy by Sun Dianying. Sun Dianying hopes that this powerful force can maintain the stalemate.  situation, give his new fifth army commander some face.

    But it was such a unit that had high hopes. They began to retreat less than half an hour after a Japanese squadron and a puppet army launched an attack.

    The target of the Japanese and puppet troops' first attack was Guo Village, which was closest to them. The land in this Guo Village was fertile and much richer than Zhongguo Village and Shangguo Village. It was considered an important place for the newly formed first regiment to collect grain and levy funds.  One of the places of origin, so the focus of the new first regiment¡¯s defense is Guocun, just such a small village.A reinforced company was stationed here.

    The Japanese and puppet troops started their attack at ten o'clock in the morning. The reinforcement company of the first battalion only made symbolic resistance and then began to retreat.  This place has long been a tug-of-war between the two armies. The common people are very experienced in "running away from the enemy and rebelling". Naturally, food has long been secured and the fields have been cleared. Some important properties such as cotton clothes and quilts have been bundled long ago. The common people have heard that the enemy has  When they arrived, they dragged their children and wives to carry burdens or push wheelbarrows to Zhongguo Village early.

    In the past, the Japanese and puppet troops often came to attack the New Fifth Army. Because the Japanese and puppet troops were seriously lacking in strength, they would retreat after repelling the New Fifth Army and grabbing some food or livestock in the village.  But this time it was different. After the Japs occupied Guo Village, they had no intention of retreating. They left a sergeant with five Japs soldiers, plus a reinforced platoon of puppet troops stationed in Guo Village. It seemed that they  I want to establish a base here.

    The people in the village have long since fled, but some poultry and livestock cannot be taken away, so these living animals have to stay.

    The puppet troops occupied important locations in the village and stationed themselves there. Japanese Army Sergeant Cao Watanabe led a few soldiers, but they had no intention of resting. They were all hunting around in the village, preparing to have a full meal at noon.  .

    But in the First Battalion of the newly formed First Regiment, their life was really difficult. The Japanese were uncharacteristically uncharacteristic this time. They did not retreat after robbing them as usual, but chased their butts and beat them hard.

    The reinforced company of the 1st Battalion did not do well in the battle, but they were very experienced in retreating. This time their retreat experience did not help them. The Japanese and puppet troops held them tightly. If it were not for the supporting troops from Zhongguocun  The response was relatively quick, and it became a question whether this reinforced company could safely evacuate to Zhongguo Village.

    As the troops closest to the Japanese puppet troops, the three Guocun defense fortifications had naturally been repaired long ago. The reinforcement company immediately entered the fortifications after retreating, and together with the supporting troops, they began to carry out serious resistance.  At this time, they had no choice but to resist. The first battalion only had three villages in total. If Zhongguo Village could no longer be defended, the Japanese and puppet troops would surely invade Shangguo Village, where the battalion headquarters was located.

    The first battalion commander had received the report long ago. He originally thought that the Japanese and puppet troops would come to grab something and leave as before, so he was still drinking tea leisurely. However, after the sound of gunfire from Zhongguo Village came over, the first battalion commander  Growing up was taken aback.  As a battle-hardened veteran, the First Battalion Commander naturally had a lot of battlefield experience. He heard from the dense gunfire of the Japanese and puppet troops that this time the Japanese and puppet troops were serious about it, and Zhongguo Village was likely to be captured by the Japanese.  The puppet troops surrounded him, and this time it became a question whether his battalion could be reorganized and brought down.

    The fact that a battalion commander can be sent to the front line shows that he is not a pustule.  As a member of the Temple Taoist Association, the first battalion commander knew that Sun Dianying did not necessarily care about the gains and losses of the moment, but he cherished the troops very much. In the New Fifth Army, losing a position was not a serious crime, but losing the troops would  Then Na Na will most likely be beheaded.

    Knowing that his troops were in a bad situation, the first battalion commander immediately mobilized all the troops he could mobilize. The first battalion commander personally led the team to support Zhongguo Village, and even brought his two most beloved mortars.  On.

    Shangguo Village is about seven or eight miles away from Zhongguo Village. Shangguo Village is on the mountain and Zhongguo Village is at the foot of the mountain.

    When the first battalion commander arrived at Zhongguo Village, the war in Zhongguo Village was at its peak. Zhongguo Village was much smaller than Guo Village and was already surrounded by Japanese and puppet legions.  Fortunately, the reinforcements arrived in time. The reinforcements led by a battalion commander were so condescending that they actually broke open the encirclement with a single charge.

    The military quality of the Japanese army is much higher than that of the New Fifth Army. A large number of reinforcements came from the other side, and the encirclement was also torn open. However, the Japanese battlefield commander did not lose his position. He changed his tactics after making slight adjustments.

    The current Japanese army allows some puppet troops to continue attacking the soldiers guarding the fortifications in Zhongguo Village. He himself leads the Japanese soldiers of that squadron to provide reinforcements.

    The mortars brought by the first battalion commander played a major role at this time. Shells fell on the enemy's position, and the "bang, bang" explosions continued one after another.  The Japanese army only brought a few grenade launchers, and the range and lethality of the grenade launchers were far inferior to those of mortars. Therefore, although the Japanese army's combat effectiveness was strong, its own firepower was obviously at a disadvantage.  A stalemate was formed.

    The timely arrival of reinforcements and mortar fire boosted morale. The panicked soldiers in Zhongguo Village calmed down. They began to fight back, preparing for a good fight with these Japanese and puppet troops.

    But the battalion commander knew very well that the current stalemate was only short-lived, and this balance would soon be broken. ·Ä
