Chapter 180: The Japanese surrender frightened General Gangcun

In the Jinbei Column, Ding Wei's orders have absolute deterrent power.

All of his subordinates were promoted by him.

Gao Qing, Zhang Dabiao, Wang Chao, Taozi, Zhou Weiguo, and Kong Jie have been comrades-in-arms for many years, and they are almost the same as long as they don't wear the same pants.

Who will accuse Ding Wei of abusing prisoners?

Preferential treatment also depends on the situation. The Japanese captured 5 miners and made them mine day and night.

Now they are forced to go down to the mines and treat them in their own way. Is this considered abuse?

A large-scale purge was carried out inside and outside Wucheng. After the Japanese prisoners were taken away, the fanatical soldiers who resisted stubbornly were shot dead by the detachment soldiers.

The traitors and puppet soldiers must also be liquidated.

If we want to recruit them, let's put them aside for now. Why do we need these turtle bastards who will follow the Japanese all the way to the end?

They were also sent to the mine to dig coal, working three shifts a day to expand production.

Gunshots rang out continuously throughout the streets. Big traitors, puppet army leaders, and traitorous businessmen were arrested and shot dead in the streets.

Crazy Ding, absolutely Crazy Ding.

Zhong Zhicheng really cared about him, so there was no need to fight at this critical juncture.

It's too easy to give rise to gossip. The Eighth Route Army's policy of treating prisoners well is there, so don't go too far.

Ding Wei is rational. You cannot always give preferential treatment to Japanese prisoners of war, traitors and puppet soldiers.

We have to show our bloody resolve and get rid of the troublemakers first.

As for the rest, we can consider making them do hard labor to extinguish the evil fire in their bodies, and then carry out ideological education.

The officers of the Second Independent Mixed Brigade were stubborn, but the ordinary soldiers were easily persuaded to defect. A little bit of preferential treatment would be enough to make them realize their mistakes.

According to Japanese propaganda, prisoners would have their testicles cut off and their hearts and livers dug out, so most Japanese soldiers would rather die in battle than surrender.

This has something to do with the brainwashing of the Bushido spirit, and also something to do with the deception of the Japanese from top to bottom. The truth will only be convincing after the Japanese experience it themselves.

Focus on the grassroots Japanese soldiers, disintegrate their will to resist, and conduct repeated ideological work. If we can persuade a few hundred of the five thousand Japanese soldiers to defect, we can release them.

Put them in the Kwantung Army, let them tell their experiences as prisoners in person, and let more Japanese know that the Eighth Route Army treats prisoners well.

This will reduce the Japanese army's will to resist and reduce casualties among our own troops during the attack.

The significance of the united front work of the captives is far more useful than killing them. Ding Wei became the commander of the Sui-re-cha military region, and his vision and pattern also improved.

Compared to killing 5000 devils and destroying the entire Kwantung Army, he preferred the latter.

The devil's fangs can be retracted for now. It will not be too late to deal with the prisoners after the Kwantung Army is defeated and the Northeast is recovered.

Zhong Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. As the political commissar, he had been very wronged in the military region.

No one can stop Lao Ding from doing something he has decided to do. His subordinates only listen to the orders of one person.

If you ask them to go east, no one may listen. But if you ask them to shoot, each one will be crazier than the other.

Gao Qing conducted two rounds of inventory in Wucheng, and after taking over the weapons and equipment first, the detachment expanded rapidly and recruited a large number of new recruits.

The main force was brought to check every household in the city, especially the Japanese expatriates, who were put under separate surveillance.

After ensuring that everything was foolproof, he notified the command center and moved Suirecha's headquarters to Wucheng.

"Commander, this time the First Detachment has thoroughly mastered the weapons and equipment of the Japanese. Give me a chance and I will tear off the head of the Japanese division for you."

Ding Wei strode into the new headquarters and the soldiers along the way saluted him.

During the journey, I saw a lot of new faces. The strength of the First Team has doubled, which is a good thing but also a hidden danger.

"What you need to do now is to strengthen the combat effectiveness of my troops. By absorbing 3,000 soldiers, how much of the veterans' ability can you bring into play?"

Gao Qing patted his chest and assured that his soldiers were by no means cowards. Even though many of them were new recruits, they dared to fight the Japanese with bayonets and could be pulled out to fight.

This time the first team really stood up.

After looking at the battle map, Ding Wei leaned on the table with both hands and looked up at the HD.

"Okay, I'll give you a chance to lead the attack. I'll give you a month to reorganize and send troops to the Tongliao area. Your Gao Qing's first team will lead the attack."

"It's a deal, it's a deal, Commander."

Look at what he has achieved. Just a main attacker, but Gao Qing was so happy.

There was no way, he had been holding his breath for too long.

They were clearly the most elite troops of the New 1st Regiment and also Ding Wei's earliest batch of veterans. It was not until the capture of Wucheng that they were expanded and formed in one fell swoop.

Pull out 7 main battalions and strengthen the two artillery battalions.

Gao Qing wanted to use the main attack to tell other brother detachments in the army who was the most capable fighter in the Jinbei Column.

It's a good thing for the troops to be reckless and motivated.

Wucheng and Zhangbei were successfully resolved, and the fortifications carefully repaired by the Japanese became Ding Wei's possession.

Reporters were specially arranged to take photos of a large number of prisoners and publish them in newspapers, in order to make a big publicity.

Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment borders Ding Wei, and he was among the first group of people in the National Army to learn of the news.

"Oh my God, an independent mixed brigade in Wucheng surrendered. This is a huge event. My brother Ding will become famous all over the country again."

It was rare that Fang Ligong did not sabotage or look down on the Eighth Route Army soldiers who came from a peasant background.

"This is the first large-scale surrender of the Japanese army. It will not only be known throughout the country, but it will also be the first in the world."

The collective surrender of a mixed brigade was far more shocking than the destruction of the 108th Division, and the storm was even more violent.

The National Army once fought a battle in which it wiped out an entire Japanese division, but not only the National Army, but even in the Pacific battlefield and the entire European battlefield, there was no such large-scale and organized surrender.

Ah, bah, forgot about that French guy.

That was not a surrender of an organized organization, that was a surrender of the entire country.

At the North China Expeditionary Army Headquarters, General Gangcun slammed the table angrily, his palms turning red.

"Shame, shame for our North China Expeditionary Force. Takeshita Shun has completely disgraced the imperial nobles."

"Quick, bring me my knife. I want to commit suicide by disembowelment to thank the Emperor."

"How dare he? He, Takeshita Shun, wants to kill the entire family and bring shame to the entire empire."

Gangcun was so angry that he walked around the room, wanting to bang his head against the wall.

The kind that bangs hard.

After clenching his fist, he quickly ordered the news to be blocked and announced internally that the Independent Mixed 2nd Brigade had safely evacuated Wucheng without any casualties, and had been transferred to overseas combat in accordance with the Army's request.

We must never admit that a brigade of Japanese troops surrendered, no matter what, otherwise the entire war situation will undergo drastic changes.

It will have a huge impact on the morale of the Imperial Army.

The news must be suppressed, and this abominable organized surrender must be kept as top secret and sealed off.

The opinions of the top leaders of the Japanese army were very clear: they suppressed the news and announced internally that it was a plot of the Eighth Route Army to undermine the morale of the soldiers.

They jointly came forward to prove that the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade not only did not surrender, but was actually on a transport ship heading overseas to fight.

In order to make the matter more convincing, a part of the elite troops of the 41st Division under the First Army were transferred from North China to the coast.

We actually arranged a transport ship to ship it overseas.
