    Following Li Guoyao¡¯s order, the troops took action quickly!

    Li Guoyao is also quite uneasy about the current battle, because this battle is different from any other battle in the past.

    First, because the enemy is more powerful. In the past, whether fighting the Central China Front Army or the North China Front Army, we only faced tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, but now there are more than one million enemies, and they are also known as  It is the most powerful strategic group in the entire Japanese Army. It would be a lie to say that we are not worried.

    Secondly, the current combat situation is also very different from the past. In the past, there were two combat situations against the Japanese army. The first one was that you hit me without fighting back, just like the 'September 18th Incident' when the Japanese army fully invaded the Northeast and the National Government  A non-resistance order was issued, and hundreds of thousands of Northeastern troops entered the border without firing a shot.

    The second type is to fight back when you hit me. For example, in the Battle of Songhu in 1932, the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack on Shanghai, and the Nationalist government mobilized a large army to fight back.

    The current battle is not like this, but the third way, that is, I know you are going to hit me, so I will hit you first. This is called preemptive strike.

    At this point in the war, there is nothing unreasonable anymore. What we have won is a hundred years of prosperity, and what we have lost is the destruction of the country and the annihilation of the species.  Not only the Chinese people have to fight hard, but the little devils also have to use all their strength. Therefore, both the national army and the little devils are scrambling for time and the initiative in the war.

    In the war within the Pass, China has lost the initiative in the war, so Li Guoyao outside the Pass must take action against the little Japs earlier.

    Although this time the fight was in the name of the Resistance Alliance and the Volunteer Army, the troops participating in the war were all the elites of the Jiuji Army.

    " Moreover, Li Guoyao also focused on two big cities in this battle. As for the outcome, no one can say for sure. After all, this is the Northeast, and the garrison here is called the Kwantung Army.

    Fortunately, in this battle, Li Guoyao did not fight with the elite Kwantung Army, but chose a soft persimmon to pinch, so the pressure was not very great.

    The battle started on November 3. The first to launch the attack was the Second Column stationed in Zhou Qiang. Their opponent was the Second Puppet Infantry Division with its headquarters in Tongliao. The commander was named Ganzharzab.

    Ganyurzab was also considered a powerful general in the puppet Manchukuo State. He rose through the ranks from March 1933 when he served as the police chief of Darhan, Hung Yen South Province, to May 1938, when he served as the Major General of the Hung Yen Military District.  , this guy completed the transition from a young officer to a general in just a few years.

    After 1938, this guy was appointed as the Major General Commander of South Xing'an Region, organized the Gan Detachment, and served as captain, to fight in Rehe and Jidong in North China.  Not long ago, he served as the major general commander of the 9th Puppet Manchukuo Military District and was promoted to lieutenant general of the army.

    Because of his outstanding abilities, Ganyurzab was also sent to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Beppu and other places in Japan by the Kwantung Army Headquarters for about a month to study.  The purpose of the visit was mainly to express condolences to the puppet army officers who had made meritorious service in the crusade. They visited the non-commissioned officer school and the cavalry school in Tokyo, and visited the Ministry of War, which shows this person's status in the puppet Manchukuo army.

    However, compared to the young Zhou Qiang, Kangyurzabu was far behind in terms of mobility and tactics. After learning that Kangyurzabu only had four infantry regiments of 1,500 people plus a small number of  After acquiring the technical arms, Zhou Qiang's mind became active.

    He first sent a cavalry brigade to attack the Japanese troops who went deep into the grasslands in autumn to recruit troops and collect grain. The grain collection in the grassland area was quite special. Since most of the people here made a living by herding and did not grow food, the Japanese and puppet troops collected  They are also cattle and sheep.

    Cattle and sheep are generally the most fertile in autumn and winter, so the time for grain collection is set between the end of October and December.

    In addition, the herdsmen are relatively scattered, and sometimes one household may be tens or hundreds of kilometers away from another household. Therefore, the puppet troops often have to travel hundreds of kilometers a day when collecting cattle and sheep.

    Seizing this opportunity, Zhou Qiang sent a brigade of troops, with squadrons as units, to search and intercept Ganyurzabu's grain collection team on the grassland.

    In just two days, they annihilated the opponent's Liuzi grain collection team and annihilated more than 500 enemy troops.

    When the news reached Tongliao City, Ganzhuerzabu was shocked and furious. He immediately ordered his regiment leader Hu Futai to lead a regiment of troops deep into the grassland to search for these abominable horse bandits.

    The reason why they were considered to be horse bandits was entirely because the troops sent by Zhou Qiang did not wear military uniforms. Although they were flying under the banner of the Volunteer Army, in the eyes of Ganzharzabu and others, they were just a bunch of horse bandits.

    The horse bandits on the grassland are notoriously fierce, so Ganzharzabu directly used the entire regiment to encircle and suppress them. To this end, he also used his only machine gunThe company and artillery battery were also placed under the command of Hu Futai.

    But no one expected that Hu Futai's troops discovered traces of "horse bandits" in the area north of Kailu, and then the whole army pursued them. After five hours of rapid march, they were lured to the hinterland of the mountainous grasslands of Zalut.

    Here, an elite cavalry force of more than 5,000 people is waiting for them.

    When Hu Futai led two thousand main troops deep into the Zalut Grassland, he soon found that he had stepped into a carefully laid trap, surrounded by large groups of cavalry that were constantly encircling them. These cavalry were all equipped with standard equipment of lances and sabers.  , and there are artillery and machine gun troops behind the team.

    But by the time they realized the danger, it was already too late and their headquarters had been surrounded.

    Hu Futai ordered the troops to break out, but they quickly failed. Not only did the opponent have many troops and fierce firepower, but their overall combat capabilities were also very strong. The cooperation between the soldiers was quite tacit, and they did not look like a bandit army at all.

    Subsequently, his troops made two more breakthroughs, but were repelled both times. As a last resort, Hu Futai had no choice but to surrender with more than a thousand remaining men.

    After Hu Futai¡¯s troops surrendered, Zhou Qiang then led his men to attack the Zalut Banner, annihilating the defenders there, and executing the false flag chief.

    ¡°However, the troops did not station themselves in the Jarut Banner. They evacuated immediately after completing their mission, and left the flag of the Second Column of the Xing¡¯an Volunteer Army and corresponding propaganda slogans at the seat of the banner government.

    Immediately afterwards, Zhou Qiang led people to attack Kailu, Naiman and Kezuohou Banner, annihilating nearly 3,000 puppet troops in a very short period of time.

    ¡°The total number of Japanese and puppet troops in Tongliao was only 7,000, and about half of them were wiped out in a daze, and a large number of banner counties were captured. Ganzhuerzabu immediately realized that he was in big trouble.

    While reporting the situation to the Kwantung Army headquarters, he ordered the troops to strictly guard the cities in various places and not to go out without orders.

    After receiving the news, the Kwantung Army headquarters first rebuked Ganyurzabu, but did not take it seriously. It just ordered the nearby Jehol garrison to dispatch a brigade of troops north to reinforce Tongliao.

    But this time the Japanese and puppet troops were confused again. More than 4,000 reinforcements rushed from Chifeng to Tongliao via Anqinggou, Sidaowanzi Town and other places. When passing through Lianhua Mountain, they were suddenly attacked by a mysterious armed force.

    The opponent first set up an ambush on the front line of Lianhua Mountain with a large number of infantry. After severely damaging the puppet army, they pursued it with no less than two thousand cavalry.

    As a result, in less than two hours, the puppet infantry brigade was completely wiped out. From the brigade commander to the soldiers, more than half were killed, and the rest all surrendered.

    These two battles completely alarmed the Japanese and puppet troops on the southern front. The Japanese garrison headquarters in Chengde immediately dispatched reconnaissance planes and intelligence personnel to investigate the situation. At the same time, it also sent a reinforced regiment of infantry and four brigades of cavalry to the north to cooperate.  The puppet troops in Chifeng and Tongliao areas encircled and suppressed this mysterious enemy force.

    But when a large number of Japanese and puppet troops arrived at the front line of Tongliao and Chifeng, this mysterious armed force seemed to disappear out of thin air and never appeared again.

    But even so, the Japanese and puppet troops on the southern front did not dare to neglect. A large number of troops were sent out to search for traces of these troops.

    However, no matter how the Japanese and puppet troops searched, the so-called volunteer army seemed to have disappeared into the sea, with no news.

    At the same time, a storm is coming in Xing'an City on the northern line, and the situation is turbulent!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
