    Seoul, General Headquarters of the Japan-Korea Expeditionary Force.

    "I failed in my humble command and lost the imperial territory. I am ashamed of His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire! Please punish me, Commander-in-Chief." Major General Noboru Kunizaki, commander of the 5th Brigade of the 19th Division, apologized in a panic, with his whole body bent like a bow.  A lobster with a trembling voice.  His troops suffered several defeats in the battle on March 27 and lost Suzhou.

    The new commander-in-chief, General Juichi Terauchi, looked at him with a gloomy face and said nothing. After a while, his words were as cold as ice: "As long as you know your crime, you don't need me to send you back to Tokyo for trial. You can solve it yourself!"  "

    Kunizaki¡¯s face turned ashen immediately.

    Amid the painful cries of Major General Kunisaki's caesarean section, the temperature inside the headquarters seemed to be even colder than outside. All the generals shuddered, their heads lowered and they did not dare to raise their heads to look at Touhou Terauchi.

    "Are you all scared out of your wits by the Chinese army? Are you still the mighty Imperial Army of the Japanese Empire? Look at how cowardly you are now, you are just a bunch of cowards! The empire has lost all face by you!" Terauchi  He lectured sternly.

    Terauchi Juichi is different in character from his predecessor, Ueda Kenkichi, who had mediocre qualifications and lacked courage. He is a typical ruthless Japanese militarist, suspicious in temperament but resolute and decisive.  On his first day in North Korea, at the headquarters in Seoul, he executed eight South Korean generals in one breath and ordered two major generals who had failed to command the Japanese army to commit suicide by caesarean section. He used bloody iron fists to stabilize the uneasy Japanese and Korean troops.  down.

    "Now, there is only one thing you have to do now, and that is to counterattack! Attack! Drive the Chinese army back to Manchuria!" Terauchi Shouichi looked coldly at the silent subordinates, "If anyone takes one step back, I will definitely  Eliminate the incompetent people who are useless to the Empire on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor!"

    In early April, the stalemate in the northwestern war situation in North Korea began to stir. Under the stern orders of Juichi Terauchi, the first section of the Japanese army huddled in the Pingcheng area and the assembled Japanese 13th Division began to advance northward and take the initiative.

    On the night of the 3rd, the 22nd Brigade of the Northeastern Army was ordered to advance southward. The road was full of abandoned fields and deserted villages.  The Korean people believed the propaganda of the Japanese colonial authorities and believed that the Northeast Army would kill all the Koreans, so they ran away.  The 22nd Traveling Army only encountered scattered North Koreans after a day, including old people and children who could not run away.  The officers and soldiers distributed food to the Korean people and publicized the policies of the Northeast Army in accordance with the requirements of their superiors. These were all ordered by Zhang Xueliang.  There are also a large number of Korean youths joining the army in the Northeast. These soldiers who can speak both Chinese and Korean serve as propagandists during the battle. Since they are all of the same ethnic group, they can gain more trust and recognition from the local Korean people.  It was propagated that the Northeastern Army came to liberate the Korean people who, like the Han people, belong to the Chinese nation. This high-sounding reason and propaganda slogan later did have a great effect. The Korean people who received food benefits from the Northeastern Army returned even more  Spread the word to spread the goodwill of the Northeastern Army, so that "we can slowly win the hearts and minds of the Korean nation and build a mass base in Korea, which will facilitate our current operations and future rule" (Zhang Xueliang's words)  .

    At this time, the brigade headquarters suddenly received a nervous and exciting report from the telecommunications interceptor: "Brigadier Commander! We have found enemies in front of us!"

    Brigadier Jing Dewen, who was dozing off in the car, was shocked, "It's impossible!"  The 118th Division had just swept through this area. There should not have been large-scale Japanese troops. Could it be that friendly troops misunderstood and were regarded as enemy troops?  Thinking of this, he asked again and said very definitely to the phone: "They must be enemies! What they speak is not Chinese!"

    After putting down the intercom, Jing Dewen was very surprised by the sudden appearance of the enemy. After thinking for a few minutes, he concluded that it should be a small group of Japanese troops that had been broken up.  Not sleepy, he went out and raised his binoculars. The troops were on a mountain road. The terrain was clearly visible under the moonlight. The empty and incomplete road had extended into a depression, like a dead gray-white road.  The snake was lying there. On both sides of the road were hillsides only a few meters high. The hillsides were covered with dense dead grass half a man's height swaying in the cold wind, and occasionally there were a few half-dead pine trees.  Stretching to both sides are stretches of abandoned fields.  Topographically speaking, this is a good place for an ambush.

    The scouts sent out soon came back to report that there were about a few hundred enemy troops and they had not yet discovered our army. They were still more than 20 kilometers away and would arrive in about an hour.

    "Okay! Since it is a small force of the Japanese, let's eat it!" Jing Dewen was a little excited. The 22nd Brigade had not fought a war since it went abroad and entered North Korea. Seeing the friendly troops repeatedly making military exploits, the officers and soldiers were eager to try.  .  I still have a reorganized brigade that occupies a favorable terrain, and the opponent only has a few hundred Japanese soldiers.Flying majestically above the team.  Soon, a team appeared in front of the mountain col road. The officers and soldiers bravely rushed forward calmly, and the two teams got closer and closer.  Someone yelled something loudly over there, and Lu Dongchang replied viciously in Japanese. After a few words back and forth, Lu Dongchang shut up the other person with a "Baga Yalu".

    "You can move on!" Lu Dongchang said to Chu Qiming while wiping away cold sweat.

    The team cautiously passed by the Korean army. The officers and soldiers were highly nervous. They took their guns off their backs and held them in their hands. They loaded the bullets and secretly pointed at the "friendly troops" walking carelessly beside them.  After more than ten minutes of smooth sailing, there was a sound of relief in the team. The officers and soldiers, whose hands were covered in sweat, were surprised. How could these Korean soldiers be so easy to fool?

    "What did you just say to them?" Chu Qiming took off his hat, and the brim of the hat was soaked with cold sweat.

    "At first, they asked in Korean, and I scolded them in Japanese for not having eyesight. Then someone asked again in Japanese, and I told them that we were on a special mission. If I asked more questions, I would be dead. They reported themselves  Jiamen is part of the 4th Division of the Korean Army."

    Chu Qiming nodded. At this time, Mu Zanchun said in admiration: "Brigadier Commander, why were you so confident that we could fool these Korean stickmen just now?"

    "How can I have any confidence? My cold sweat just soaked my underwear. I said that to calm you down. I have been chanting Amitabha in my heart just now." Chu Qiming grinned bitterly.

    The officers all laughed.

    It was already daybreak, and the road leading to Feihu Mountain was filled with dust. In order to arrive on time and seize the Feihu Mountain key road, the officers and soldiers of the 45th Brigade, who were deep in the heart of the Japanese army, had no choice but to run to their destination in broad daylight.  From time to time, Japanese planes roared over the heads of the troops, but the calmness of the officers and soldiers and the fluttering sun flag deceived the eyes of the Japanese planes high in the sky. There was even a Japanese pilot who was fooled and enthusiastically used radio to communicate with the 45th Brigade.  A report was sent from No. 3 of the Korean Army Garrison Station in Feihushan in the direction of running: There is an imperial army unit that has just withdrawn from the front line and is heading to your camp. Please prepare boiled water and rice to welcome them.

    The Northeast officers and soldiers who understood the situation ran away even more arrogantly, shouting words to boost morale and drive away sleepiness while running.  "Go! Go! We're just ahead! If we occupy that place, we can sleep happily!"

    The extremely tired officers and soldiers used their last strength to run as hard as they could.  The officers and soldiers of the avant-garde battalion held the sun flag high and rushed to the third camp. Mortar shells rained down into the Korean army's position and exploded with blood and flesh. The ferocious firepower killed the Korean army who was busy cooking before they could react.  With their armor abandoned, more than 500 people in total were eliminated in the first section of the 75th Regiment of the 22nd Division of the Korean Army Garrison stationed here in half an hour, and more than 200 were captured. The rest fled in disarray.  Some Korean prisoners still couldn't figure it out after being captured: We were cooking for the imperial army, why did the imperial army attack us?

    When troops swarmed into Sansuoli, Chu Qiming also sent two reinforced battalions to seize the other two transportation fortresses in the Feihushan area, Longyuanli and Anzhou, completing the tasks of blowing up bridges and damaging roads.  The 45th Brigade of the Northeastern Army marched 128 kilometers in 29 hours and blocked the retreat path of more than four Japanese divisions in northwestern Korea who were fighting the Northeastern Army.

    After occupying the important area, the hungry and sleepy officers and soldiers grabbed the food cooked for them by the Korean army and stuffed it into their mouths. They basically stuffed it into their mouths and just chewed it before swallowing it before falling asleep with their heads tilted.  .

    In the headquarters of the 7th Army of the Northeastern Army in Dingzhou, the communications soldier who had been searching for the radio signal of the 45th Brigade was pleasantly surprised: "Commander! It's through! The 45th Brigade has been contacted!"

    "Our unit has arrived and successfully occupied Sanyuanli, Longyuanli and Anzhou. Now we are asking for mission instructions!" Chu Qiming's tired voice came from the phone.

    Su Bingwen, who had not slept for several days and had been thinking about them, was also exhausted, but at this time he was suddenly pleasantly surprised, "Great! Finally, I was not disappointed!" Su Bingwen composed himself and said: "Brigadier Chu! Two hours at most.  , your headquarters will be attacked by a large number of Japanese troops! I order you to nail it there like steel nails!"

    On Feihu Mountain, more than a hundred kilometers away, Chu Qiming, who was looking tired, looked at the ferocious peaks stretching to the distance and knew in his heart that a bloody battle was coming!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
