    At the same time that the traitor troops on the east side of Zhuangzi collapsed, the three national army troops outside Zhuangzi also began to charge. Although there were only more than a hundred people on each side, they still fought with a force of a thousand people.

    Because it was dark, Feng Wucai and others could not see clearly what was going on outside. When they discovered that there were national army troops everywhere, their first reaction was to be fooled.

    At this time, the nature of greed for life and fear of death suddenly defeated the desire and greed for meritorious service. Feng Wucai didn't even bother to greet others, turned his horse and ran away.

    When the people around him saw the boss running away, the others naturally would not stay there to wait for death, and ran away one after another.

    Soon the battle turned into a chase. This situation not only stunned the others, but even Li Guoyao was a little incredible.

    After all, there are more than 3,000 people on the other side, and their strength is more than five times theirs.

    Even if it is suddenly attacked, it is not so vulnerable!

    In fact, both Feng Wucai, Zhang Shaolin, and even Li Guoyao far overestimated the combat effectiveness of these traitors.

    They just saw that the Red Lancers had strong troops and a large number of troops. In addition, everyone had guns in their hands, and they felt that they would never be so rubbish.

    But everyone did not see the sleepy thoughts and feelings of each of these people, let alone the actual thoughts of the Red Spear congregation on this battle.

    The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is obvious to all, and there is no doubt about its strength. However, the combat effectiveness of the puppet army brought out or formed by the Japanese army is also seen by everyone. It is unsightly and unspeakable, and its reputation is extremely bad.

    Regarding the issue of uneven combat effectiveness between the Japanese army and the puppet army, there has been endless quarrel for decades. Everyone is noisy on the Internet, but there has never been a more authoritative statement.

    However, there are still some opinions about the combat effectiveness of the puppet army that are generally recognized by people, that is, the puppet army generally has no desire to fight. This includes not only the regular puppet troops, but also pro-Japanese Taoist forces like the Red Spear Society.

    Due to the rapid rise of guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines and the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese field troops were greatly constrained. Therefore, in order to solve the shortage of frontline combat troops, senior officers in the Japanese base camp hoped to use the existing local troops to maintain rule.

    But there is a problem, that is, the existing personnel are limited after all. How can such a vast occupied area be maintained with limited personnel.  Therefore, the high-level Japanese military leaders used a not-so-smart but very effective strategy to get along with each other - using China to control China.

    In fact, the so-called poisonous plan of the Japanese army is very simple. It was used frequently before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. It was just to support one or more pro-Japanese traitors.

    Now it has just been replaced by recruiting local people to take charge of security in the occupied areas, and these recruited personnel are what we usually call "puppet soldiers", "Japs" and "doglegs" in the future.

    According to the jurisdiction of the puppet regime in the Japanese-occupied areas, battle orders such as the "Nanjing National Revolutionary Army" and the "North China Security Army" were established. These battle orders formed the framework of the national puppet army command system. The puppet regimes did not interfere with each other.  However, Japanese military officers have the right to dispatch puppet troops in any area at any time. This is also to ensure that the Japanese army has absolute control over all puppet troops.

    According to historical records, in 1938, the number of puppet troops in China was approximately 78,000, and these people were mainly distributed in North China, mainly affiliated to the North China Security Army.

    However, after Wang Jingwei rebelled against the Nationalist Government and established a new government, the number of puppet troops in China increased sharply to 145,000. From 1942 to 1943, the Nationalist Government promoted the slogan of "saving the country through curves" and allowed the commanders of the National Revolutionary Army to face the war situation.  Under unfavorable circumstances, after the instruction to "temporarily surrender in order to preserve strength", the number of puppet troops began to grow explosively.

    According to statistics after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, about 62% of the puppet troops in China were former National Revolutionary Army troops.  In addition to some puppet troops stationed in cities to maintain security in the occupied areas, the vast majority of the puppet troops were transferred to the Communist Party's anti-Japanese base areas in North China to carry out "mopping up" operations. Many of them participated in the attack on civilians in North China.  Massacre activities.

    After Japan¡¯s unconditional surrender, according to Chinese military statistics, the number of puppet troops stationed in China, except for the puppet Manchukuo, was approximately 1.186 million. However, currently widely circulated versions also state that there are more than 2 million puppet troops.  This number of puppet troops is almost equal to the number of Japanese troops in China, but it is the Japanese troops who command the puppet troops.

    According to statistics, China was the only country in which the number of puppet troops exceeded the number of invading troops in World War II. The strange phenomenon caused by this ratio has been a problem criticized by the Chinese people after the war.

      Despite this, the combat effectiveness of the puppet army is indeed not very good, otherwise the Japanese army would not have to form so many puppet armies. Take the puppet armies encountered by Li Guoyao's troops in Shandong and other places as an example.

    Although the number of people is quite large, the role these guys play is really limited before encountering a real war.

    This is not to belittle the combat effectiveness of the puppet army. The combat capability of the puppet army is indeed not very good. It was fine when fighting with the Japanese. Although the Japanese often used the puppet army as cannon fodder, after all, they have such a backbone or  With the supervisor here, the puppet army's combat effectiveness is pretty good.

    But if the puppet army fights alone, then this puppet army really cannot be used as an army.  Although running away is a bit exaggerated, it actually happened, and more than once.

    This is true for the regular puppet army. These rabble-rousers of the Red Spear Club are not even considered puppet troops at all. At most, they can only be regarded as a group of hooligans with weapons and equipment. The number is a bit larger, but compared with the ones led by Li Guoyao.  If elite troops fight, aren't they looking for death?

    And the fact is indeed the case. When the national army launched its first comprehensive counterattack, the people of the Red Spear Society completely collapsed.

    Although it felt incredible, Li Guoyao still ordered the troops to collect the prisoners of war while sending cavalry troops to pursue them.

    The battle started at 5:15, but it was not over until 7:30. The reason was that it took more than an hour for the troops to gather the prisoners of war, and it took more than half an hour to hunt down Feng Wucai and others.

    Battle statistics show that in this battle they killed and wounded more than 600 members of the Red Spear congregation, and captured 1,220 people. The rest all escaped.

    The only pity is that Feng Wucai was too cunning and never got close to the battlefield during the battle, nor did he give Li Guoyao's snipers a chance.

    After the battle, Li Guoyao ordered his people to gather the bodies of the dead. After all, they were all Chinese, and even traitors could not let them throw their bodies in the wilderness.

    After collecting the bodies of the dead, Li Guoyao and others evacuated Luwangzhuang and returned to Jinshan.

    After returning to Jinshan, Li Guoyao immediately held a military meeting and reorganized his troops. The 700 elite troops remained unchanged, but the more than 2,000 captives and more than 1,000 recruits recruited were mixed and reorganized into two  Infantry Brigade.

    Due to the lack of commanders, Li Guoyao transferred Li Bing, captain of the second squadron of the first cavalry column, and Zhao Wenshan, captain of the sixth infantry squadron, to these two newly formed brigades as captains.

    Although the captured soldiers in these two brigades accounted for two-thirds, they were either plainclothes thugs from Juxianzhuang, Japanese Japs from the Japanese and puppet army strongholds, and rabble-rousers from the Red Spear Association, but here, Li Guoyao was all  Handed them over to Li Bing and Zhao Wenshan.

    Fortunately, the troops have captured a large amount of weapons and equipment during this period. Although the morale of the soldiers is not high, they still have a somewhat mighty aura with the advanced weapons and equipment.

    But what Li Guoyao didn't know was that while he was busy reorganizing his team, Chutaro Shimizu also came to Heze with his carefully trained Rangers.

    After half an hour of interviewing with Heze¡¯s Japanese commander Osaka Yamazaki, Qingshui and others arrived at Juye County under the escort of two squadrons of Japanese infantry. A special battle was about to take place.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
