    The easy capture of Fengxian County was something that Colonel Shigeo Okazaki had not expected before. After all, the intelligence collected by the Corps Headquarters before seemed to indicate that the Chinese army in southwest Shandong was not weak in quantity or quality, and it was impossible to be one-sided.  .

    However, the facts are before their eyes. It took them just over a day to advance the front line by more than 60 kilometers, and even captured a county town in less than two hours.

    This matter might have been possible a few years ago, or even very common. There was a legend circulating within the Imperial Japanese Army that a few Japanese ronin carried a rising sun flag and captured a county without a single blow.  , the cowardly supporter/man in the city took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome the ronin into the city.

    There is even a miracle. During the attack on Rehe, a cavalry squadron of the Imperial Japanese Army easily captured Chengde, the capital city of Rehe Province where tens of thousands of people were stationed. The enemy commander fled in panic.  , so it¡¯s really nothing to conquer a county with a coalition like today.

    But don¡¯t forget that was a few years ago. After several years of deadly fighting, the Chinese army has adapted to this war and carried out local counterattacks. The battle will no longer be as easy as it was a few years ago.

    In fact, starting from the second half of Showa 13, Colonel Okazaki realized that the war was not easy to fight. It was not that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army had improved, but that the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Japanese Army had dropped significantly.

    So much so that today, Fengxian County was suddenly captured and the defenders in the city were forced to abandon the city and flee. This shocked Okazaki Shigeo and had to wonder whether Li Guoyao's troops were really as powerful as the legend said.

    After receiving the order from the division headquarters to pursue, Okazaki Shigeo left two squadrons to garrison in Fengxian County, waiting for the arrival of the division headquarters, while he himself continued to pursue Shanxian with the main force.

    And the Chinese army did not collapse thousands of miles away. They took advantage of the terrain to block attacks and launched a pursuit battle of attack and defense with the Okazaki Regiment.

    In Zhongxing Town, Okazaki Shigeo was in a good mood as he watched the Chinese army retreat.

    This is already the fourth interception since the Chinese army retreated from Fengxian County. It can be seen that the man has tried his best and has deployed at least 4,000 troops in this small town.

    But so what, we were defeated in less than eight hours!  Although those armies also put up tenacious resistance and caused a lot of casualties to the imperial army, they were not defeated in the same way.

    The only bad thing is that after they entered the town, they found that there was not even an ordinary person to be found in such a large town. It turned out to be an empty city.

    Colonel Okazaki is already used to this. In fact, they have discovered this situation a long time ago. Not only this town, but also all the villages and towns after coming out of Fengxian County were all moved.

    Even the county seat of Fengxian County is the same. In that county seat, which is said to have a permanent population of more than hundreds of thousands, there are only a few thousand old, weak, sick and disabled people left, and not a single young and middle-aged person. Moreover, all the shops are basically closed. Except for the old, weak and sick, there are  There is no such thing as a normal person.

    This made the soldiers of the Okazaki Regiment very angry. There was no one they could rob.

    Not only do they not have the gold, silver, food, medicine, and beautiful girls, they can¡¯t even find food to supplement their supplies. This is an extremely serious problem!

    According to the regulations of the base camp, the imperial army needs to raise supplies on the spot during wartime, and the country will no longer transport supplies to the frontline troops.

    Because of this regulation, soldiers who don¡¯t like Chinese coarse grains and brown rice have to adapt to Chinese food. Whether it is coarse grains or polished rice, as long as it can feed their stomachs.

    ????????????????????????????????In addition to the puppet regime ensuring through taxation, a very important supplement is looting.  Especially during combat, when they cannot get transportation from the rear, they can only rob the Chinese people.

    But what makes them feel depressed is that everything has changed since the troops entered southwestern Shandong. Whether it is a big city, a small town, or a village close to the road, as long as the imperial army is likely to attack, it is the same, that is, people  Go to the building empty.

    Originally, the soldiers of the 17th Division were very optimistic about this attack. After all, the armies of the two divisions besieged the Chinese army, which only had tens of thousands of people. This was a complete battle between a lion and a rabbit, and there would be almost no surprise in winning.

    This means that they can gain a lot of benefits from this battle, and many of them may even become legends of becoming rich overnight among the Imperial Japanese Army.

    But now the situation is not optimistic. The soldiers of the 17th Division found that they were obviously passing locusts in the eyes of all the support personnel. As long as there was actionThe capable people will run away as soon as they hear about their counterattack in southwestern Shandong.

    And Colonel Okazaki and others also believed that such a large-scale migration must have been authorized and assisted by an army!

    However, Colonel Okazaki also believed that the Chinese people would not be able to escape in such a short period of time, and they might be hiding in the nearby mountains and forests.

    But now they have no time to search for these people. According to the order of the division headquarters, the main force of the division will arrive in southwestern Shandong and then move towards Heze, and his regiment will be the vanguard of the division.

    Colonel Okazaki also discovered that although the Chinese army is not as powerful in combat as legendary, it is indeed not weak.

    Although the Imperial Japanese Army is using its firepower advantage to suppress the opponent, it cannot completely annihilate the enemy, so he is not in a hurry to chase people.

    ??Looking at the time, it was already half past six in the afternoon. It was getting dark soon and it was not safe to travel at night. Therefore, Colonel Okazaki ordered the troops to rest on the spot and wait until they get up tomorrow to continue operations.

    However, what Colonel Okazaki did not expect was that something suddenly happened in the middle of the night after they were stationed in Zhongxing Town. A soldier from a squadron stationed in the northwest corner of the town suddenly died mysteriously, and no one survived.

    According to the identification of military doctors, these soldiers died of poisoning.

    And this kind of toxin is extremely poisonous that he has never seen before. After being poisoned, half of the people will suffocate and die if they cannot survive for two minutes, and the chance of rescue is almost zero.

    " However, military doctors also found after examination that this toxin must be taken directly to have its effect. It will not be transmitted through the air, and it will not even cause harm to the human body if it is directly attached to the skin.

    Therefore, military doctors concluded that these soldiers were poisoned in the food, or to be precise, in the drinking water, which caused the sudden death of a squadron of soldiers.

    The sudden death of a squadron of elite infantry made Colonel Okazaki soberly aware of the power of the potential enemy.

    After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Colonel Okazaki did not order the troops to continue the pursuit after dawn the next day. Instead, he rested on the spot. While waiting for the division headquarters, he also sent troops to search around.

    However, after a short while, they searched almost the entire town, but still found nothing, so they could only return to the temporary military camp tiredly.

    After receiving the report from the Okazaki Regiment, the 17th Division Regiment also felt that the matter was a bit strange, and the Okazaki Regiment had already gone hundreds of kilometers alone. Once it was surrounded by Li Guoyao's troops, there was a risk of being completely annihilated, so  They were also ordered to wait for one day in Zhongxing Town, and the division headquarters was expected to arrive tonight.

    Since they had already searched and found no abnormalities, the Okazaki United team spent the night in Zhongxing Town again that night.

    In order to ensure the safety of the troops, Colonel Okazaki deliberately strengthened the patrol team that night, increasing the number of patrol teams from 4 to 8, with each team increasing from 6 to 11 people.

    ¡°Furthermore, four light and dark sentries were placed around the outside of the town to avoid being caught off guard.

    Even Colonel Okazaki ordered all the soldiers not to sleep to death, and they were not allowed to take off their clothes while sleeping, and their guns were not allowed to leave their bodies.  Once a gunshot or whistle is heard, all soldiers must assemble immediately.

    However, when I got up the next day, I found that something had happened to a squadron of soldiers. All 152 people in the squadron had their necks wiped in their sleep, and they died miserably.

    What¡¯s more important is that all the hidden outposts were cleared, and no one survived, but the Japanese troops in the town were not aware of the whole process.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
