Are you a spy? Killing the enemy is too cruel.

Ye Feng divided his troops into different groups and had them fight on different fronts. In fact, this was a tactical decision he made after a detailed analysis of the battlefield situation.

Because after being divided into several parts and fighting on different fronts, the entire area around Nanyang City will definitely be in chaos.

The situation becomes more chaotic.

Ye Feng's attack on the Japanese South Camp position did not face any flank pressure.

The result was just as Ye Feng expected. Half a day after the battle started, the area around Nanyang City was filled with the sounds of artillery fire, grenade explosions, gunfire, shouts of charge, or the painful cries of the injured.

Countless flames flickered continuously, the earth was bombarded again and again, and smoke and dust rolled.

Countless thick smoke rose up layer by layer.

The area within dozens of miles around Nanyang City was shrouded in thick smoke from the explosion.

The entire area was in complete chaos.

This was a tough time for reconnaissance platoon leader Luo Daqian, as he had to constantly send people to investigate the battlefield situation in real time and provide timely feedback.

"Captain Song, half a quarter of an hour ago, the Japanese in the city rushed out of Nanyang City. There were about two regiments. One headed north and has now engaged in a battle with Zheng Hua's troops. Another part is heading towards the south gate."

"Captain Niu, Commander Song has ordered your troops to move closer to the east gate of Nanyang City to support the defense there."

"Captain Zheng, the commander has ordered your troops not to engage in a firefight with the Japanese. Move the troops westward. He has already sent a regiment to provide cover."

"Commander, Division Commander Song was besieged at the South Gate. The battalion he was protecting lost more than half of its troops. The Japanese are still pursuing them. Division Commander Song decided to lead the troops over here and annihilate the pursuing enemy with the three regiments here."

"Get lost. Tell him that I am still attacking the enemy's position in Song Territory and have no time to help him. Tell him to get lost."

……

The situation on the battlefield has become a mess. With the attack, defense, counterattack, support, cover, etc., the original organization of a regiment has been broken up, and finally it has become a battalion-level unit for flexible combat.

When the Japanese saw this, they thought the situation seemed to be moving in their favor.

The Japanese commander decisively ordered the division of each unit into squadrons of 400 men each.

In this way, the area within dozens of miles around Nanyang City became increasingly chaotic.

Looking around, there were people everywhere in the mountains and dozens of combat teams, killing each other.

Of course, there are also two places that always retain large troop forces.

One is in Nanyang City, where the Japanese were determined to defend the city and still retained more than 25,000 troops to defend the city.

One is the three divisions brought by Ye Feng, which are still focusing on the attack, trying to wipe out the enemy's southernmost position in one fell swoop.

The battle lasted all day, and finally subsided after nightfall.

The troops from various groups were no longer able to fight or run, so they could only choose to rest on the spot and replenish food and water.

The twenty or so underground party camps were also scattered everywhere, making it difficult to communicate with each other.

The situation of more than 40 squadrons of the Japanese devils was similar. During the day, they kept rushing forward and didn't know their exact location.

During the rest time, some soldiers from the battalion were stationed not far away from the place where the Japanese squadron was stationed.

It was just because both the enemy and us were too tired that no one moved.

After all, there was not much time for fierce direct fighting during the day, and most of the time was spent running.

At this time, the advantages of the underground party fighters began to emerge.

After they joined the army, they underwent military training, most of which was spent on training their walking and running abilities, so every soldier was very good at running. They also marched all the way to the Central Plains, marching at a rapid pace, and had adapted to this intensity.

The Japanese are a mechanized force. Relying on their powerful weapons and equipment and firepower output, their military training focuses more on weapon skills, such as shooting, throwing grenades, and using machine guns and mortars.

Moreover, more than 60% of the Japanese soldiers guarding Nanyang City were new recruits, and their combat effectiveness was extremely poor.

Later in the night.

Luo Daqian, who was in charge of the reconnaissance mission, commanded his soldiers to convey Ye Feng's orders to each battalion-level combat unit.

In order to complete the mission, Luo Daqian and his men fought hard and risked their lives to pass through the camps of one enemy squadron after another.

"Command from the headquarters: At 12 o'clock at night, all battalion commanders will lead their troops to launch a counterattack. We don't need to kill many enemies. Our only mission is to disrupt the battlefield again and wear down the enemy on the other side."

The Japanese Nanyang City Command actually issued almost the same order.

Early in the morning.

The Nanyang area, which had been dead silent, became lively again. Countless exploding artillery fire illuminated the sky within a radius of ten miles again and again. Dozens of combat units from both sides, who had just recovered some strength, started fighting again.

As for Ye Feng, at this moment, he was already crazy with killing. He led three regiments to attack the enemy's positions day and night. He had already knocked down most of the defensive positions arranged by the Japanese. The positions were littered with corpses and blood, just like a shocking and cruel scene of a meat grinder.

The three regiments suffered heavy casualties, but Ye Feng did not dare to stop. He had to make a concerted effort to defeat the enemy here.

The Japanese had obviously been preparing for many days. They had deployed a large number of hidden mines and bunkers on the last line of defense and put up a frantic resistance. On several occasions, they even launched counterattacks at the cost of human lives, in order to buy time for them to quickly deploy other defenses.

It was not until dawn that Ye Feng's side broke through the enemy's position, but the battle was not over yet.

The Japanese troops in Nanyang City have sent a regiment to block the reinforcements.

The Japanese reinforcements carried a large number of incendiary bombs. When the two sides met, the Japanese directly used incendiary bombs to carry out a covering attack. When the incendiary bombs exploded and flames burned everywhere, the regiment ordered a collective charge.

"He or something."

“Is this what the Japanese are planning?”

Ye Feng saw through the Japanese conspiracy and exchanged his life for theirs. We can't defeat you, super agent Ye Feng, so we will focus on eliminating the soldiers under your troops and wait until the underground party has suffered enough casualties in the war.

No matter how powerful you, Ye Feng, are, what’s the use?

You are a commander without troops, and you want to take over the entire Central Plains by yourself?

Even if it means exchanging one life for another.

The Japanese were also very happy because the new soldiers they recruited in their country were continuously transported to the battlefield in China.

"Leave one battalion behind to help me stop the Japs' attack. The others should retreat quickly and evacuate out of the range of the Japs' artillery."

Finally, under the blocking of Ye Feng and others, the attacking Japanese regiment suffered more than two thousand casualties and had to retreat to Nanyang City reluctantly.

The battalion that Ye Feng was responsible for providing cover was almost wiped out, with only more than ten soldiers surviving.

"Is this the only trick the devils have left?"

After joining the troops, Ye Feng was not discouraged. His bloodshot eyes were still as sharp as ever.

"They also want to consume the manpower of our 12th Army through chaotic battles, but the final casualties will definitely not be what they want."

The reason why Ye Feng is confident is very simple.

Most of the soldiers on their side have experienced dozens of battles and can be considered veterans of the battlefield.

But what about the Japanese?

It is true that they have a large number of troops, but their soldiers were forcibly recruited and only trained for one or two months in their home country before being transported to the battlefield in China. They are a group of new recruits who have never seen blood and have weak combat effectiveness.

In many battles, it was said that Japanese soldiers were not afraid of death when fighting.

But these rumors were about the elite troops of the Japanese Kwantung Army; the new recruits were a different story.

Three hours later.

Ye Feng also split the three regiments here into ten battalions and joined the chaotic battle within dozens of miles around.

This battle to recapture Nanyang.

After fighting for two days and two nights, more than 40 squadrons sent by the Japanese in the field were completely wiped out, with more than 20,000 casualties.

In addition, Ye Feng had previously broken through the enemy's southern camp position.

The Japanese suffered nearly 40,000 casualties in the Battle of Nanyang. The enemy headquarters was frightened and gathered all its troops into the city, intending to continue defending Nanyang.
