On September 1, the twenty-eighth year of the Republic of China (1939), Germany invaded Poland!
On September 3, Britain and France were forced to declare war on Germany, and the Second World War finally broke out. However, this did not have much impact on the 39th Group Army trapped in the Taihang Mountains. Except for Yue Weihan, the entire
No one in the Army Group even cares about this important matter anymore, because Europe is too far away.
In the early morning, Yue Weihan was wrestling with Xiao Huzi in the yard, when Liu Yi walked in with a solemn expression.
"Maintain, something happened." After standing at attention and saluting, Liu Yi said in a deep voice, "The Zhao County Armed Forces were ambushed by the Japanese army last night. The Japanese army chose the ambush location just right. They seemed to know the whereabouts of the Armed Forces very well! Still!
Yes, according to Ma Fugui's report, the ones who ambushed them last night were not ordinary Japanese troops."
Yue Weihan immediately handed Xiaohuzi to Yuhu, and then asked Liu Yi: "Chief of Staff, what do you think of this matter?"
Liu Yidao: "I'm worried that a traitor has leaked the secret. An old devil like Okamura Neiji already knows about the existence of the armed workers team."
"Ningji Okamura will definitely know about the existence of the martial arts team. This is a matter of time." Yue Weihan shook his head and said, "I mean, could the Japanese army that ambushed the Zhao County martial arts team last night be
A special force specially formed by the old devil Okamura Neiji to deal with the armed workers?"
Liu Yidao: "This... shouldn't be possible, right?"
Yue Weihan said: "Order the military workers in all counties to be more vigilant!"
"Yes." Liu Yi snapped to attention, then turned around and walked away.
…………
Yue Weihan's order failed to reverse the unfavorable situation in southern Hebei.
Following Ma Fugui's Zhao County armed workers' team, the armed workers' teams in more than a dozen counties were also ambushed by the Japanese army. The armed workers' teams in two counties were even surrounded by the overwhelmingly superior force of the Japanese army. After a fierce battle,
After killing and injuring Japanese troops several times their own, these two armed workers teams all died heroically!
With the continuous defeats of the armed workers team, the anti-"cannibalization" struggle in southern Hebei has also fallen into trouble.
Although the spy network established by the Japanese army in various guerrilla zones has been destroyed to pieces by the armed workers, in the past half month, the noses of the Japanese and puppet troops have suddenly become extremely sensitive, and their actions have suddenly become erratic.
, the *** guerrillas often make shortfalls, and from time to time they fall into the traps of the Japanese and puppet troops!
By mid-September, the military work teams in various counties in southern Hebei were already unable to move forward.
Every time the armed workers went out, they were almost always ambushed by the Japanese army. In order to avoid greater losses, they had to temporarily stop their activities. Without the support of the armed workers, the guerrillas in various counties instantly became blind and deaf. The Japanese took the opportunity to raid.
The guerrillas in various counties suffered heavy losses, and the struggle situation in southern Hebei became unprecedentedly severe.

Shimen, Japanese Army Headquarters.
Tanabe Moritake excitedly said to Okamura Neiji: "Your Excellency, Commander, since the establishment of the night attack teams in each county, they have achieved great results, including the total annihilation of two Chinese armed forces and dozens of heavy losses.
The remaining Chinese military workers have all withdrawn to non-security areas and no longer dare to go out for activities at will."
"Hey," Okamura Neji said happily, "Tanabe-kun, you did a great job."
Tanabe Shengwu said: "It's a pity that this year's autumn grain still fell into the hands of Yue Weihan."
"That's nothing." Okamura Neiji waved his hand and said calmly, "This year, the empire's mainland, Taiwan and Manchukuo have all had a bumper harvest. The grain harvest in North China is also pretty good, even if the food harvest in southern Hebei is lost.
Autumn grain will not have much impact on the security situation in the entire North China region."
"Hai." Tanabe Moritake suddenly lowered his head, and then said coquettishly, "It is precisely because of the commander's foresight that we have today's good situation."
But Okamura Neiji waved his hand and said: "Tanabe-kun, please don't be careless. Yue Weihan is not an easy person to deal with. He will never give up easily. If nothing else happens, he will soon think
Come up with countermeasures and launch large-scale retaliation against the imperial army, and order night raid teams in all counties to be more vigilant."

Jingxing County, 39th Army Headquarters.
Ma Zhankui strode into Yue Weihan's office and said in a deep voice: "General Manager, the matter is clear."
After saying this, Ma Zhankui added: "The ones who ambushed the armed workers' teams in each county were indeed not the Japanese and puppet garrison in each county, but the night attack team ordered by Okamura Neiji to specifically deal with the armed workers' teams!"
"Night attack team!?" Yue Weihan said solemnly, "What kind of team?"
Of course, Yue Weihan was no stranger to the name Night Raid Team. In history, wasn't the plainclothes team of the great traitor Liu Kui Sheng called the Night Raid Team? However, Liu Kui Sheng's Night Raid Team was just a traitor with military uniforms, and used it as a bastard lieutenant.
They were bicycles. Yue Weihan would not believe them to his death if they could pose a threat to the armed workers.
Ma Zhankui said: "The little devil's night attack team is not simple. Its members are mainly from the special forces. In addition, they are agents from the enemy's Ministry of Industry and Secret Service, as well as a small number of traitors from the puppet army. The number of people in each night attack team is not large, so
There are only a hundred or ten people, but they are equipped with a large number of German-made submachine guns and large trucks, so they have very strong maneuverability!"
"That's not right!" Yue Weihan said, "No matter how well-equipped the night attack team is and how strong their maneuverability is, if they don't know the whereabouts of the armed workers team in advance, how can they succeed in ambushing them repeatedly?"
"I have also found out about this." Ma Zhankui said, "The night raid teams stationed in various counties by the Japs bought a large number of traitor lackeys in every town, township, and village. These traitor lackeys have all become the eyes and ears of the night raid team.
I always monitor the movements of each village, so I can know every move of the armed workers team."
"So that's it." Liu Yidao, "Chief Commander, it seems that the focus of the work of the armed workers team is about to change."
"Yes." Yue Weihan nodded and said in a deep voice, "The military workers in each county should not rush to destroy the Japanese and puppet troops' front lines. The focus of their work in the next stage is to root out the traitor lackeys hiding in the dark and deter them.
The fence-sitting faction must crush the arrogance of the traitors and lackeys of the enemy and the special forces in each guerrilla zone!"
Liu Yi thought for a while and then said: "But the chief executive, what should we do with the night attack team?"
"It is difficult to eliminate the Japanese night raid troops stationed in various counties by relying solely on the military workers and guerrillas in each county." Yue Weihan pondered for a moment and then said to Liu Yi, "This arduous task can only be completed by the special operations brigade. In this way, Liu Tiezhu can
The special operations brigade was divided into five groups and went deep into the guerrilla areas in southern Hebei to strangle the night attack team with all its strength!"
"Yes." Liu Yi stood at attention and took the order.
…………
Zhao County, Ma Dawang Village.
The little old man sneaked into the village. After seeing that there was no one around him, he climbed over the wall and entered the backyard of his house.
Half an hour ago, smoke rose from the house of Ma Yaozu, the only big family in the village, in the middle of the night. The young man who had already tasted the sweetness did not hesitate at all. He ran to Wangcun ten miles away and reported to the "Taijun" at the Wangcun stronghold. After hearing his discovery, he returned home happily.
After the last tip-off was successful, the imperial army was rewarded with fifty yuan!
With the fifty dollars, the little old man was really free for a while. He almost rode all the girls in Zuichunlou. One night, he even ordered three girls to serve him together. It felt really delicious. It was great. Thinking of the beauty, the young man's heart couldn't help but become eager. Soon he would be able to go to the city and be happy again.
The imaginative young man did not realize that there were two black shadows hanging at the base of his courtyard wall.
After climbing over the courtyard wall and just entering the door, the originally dark room suddenly lit up. A dazzling flashlight instantly illuminated Xiao Laocheng's eyes. Xiao Laocheng felt that his eyes were blurred and he could no longer see anything clearly. Something happened. Vaguely, Xiao Laocheng felt someone rushing towards him. Before he could react, he had already been pushed to the ground.
When Xiao Laocheng's vision returned to normal, he had been tied up and thrown to the ground.
In front of Xiao Laocheng, two sturdy men sat, wearing short jackets and white towels on their heads.
When he saw the makeup of these two people, Xiao Laocheng was immediately scared to death. These two people were not ordinary thieves, they were actually a "notorious" martial arts team!
"Hero, spare your life." The young man begged for mercy repeatedly, "Spare my dog's life."
"Spare your life?" One of the big men said coldly, "When you reported the information to the Japanese, did you ever think of leaving a way for us to survive? Now that you have been caught by us, you think Are you getting up to beg for mercy? Tell you, it’s too late! If I don’t kill you today, how can I be worthy of the brother you killed!”
"You dare!?" Seeing that his begging for mercy failed, Xiao Laocheng immediately turned his face and shouted with a ferocious face, "To tell you the truth, the imperial army has dispatched large forces and the entire Ma Dawang Village has been surrounded. If you resisters, Kneel down and beg me for mercy. Grandpa, I might be able to intercede with the imperial army and spare your lives!"
"Hahaha..." The big man looked up to the sky and laughed, "This is new, now we have to kneel down and beg for mercy again?"
"Don't believe it yet!" said the young old man with a ferocious smile, "the imperial army's night attack team has already laid an ambush at the entrance of the village!"
"Hahaha, then I really have to thank you." The big man patted Xiao Laocheng's pockmarked face with the facial cleansing box in his hand, and then his expression changed, and he said with murderous intent, "If you hadn't been so stupid It’s really not that easy to go and inform the little devil’s night raid team, hehe.”
"Ah? This..." When the young man heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
The big man didn't want to talk nonsense anymore. He suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed the top of Xiao Laocheng's head and chin and twisted it gently. There was a click, and Xiao Laocheng's neck had been completely broken. When the big man let go again, Xiao Laocheng's head immediately It drooped softly at a strange angle, and the eyes that were wide open due to fear instantly lost their vitality...
