The main force that launched the attack on Pingdingshan today was the 6th Mixed Brigade of the Puppet 19th Military Region.

This brigade has suffered more than 1200 casualties so far! Even the brigade commander Wang Keding is dead! Now the Japanese military advisor Suzuki Shigekazu is in command!

Although it was a puppet army, 50% of the company-level officers in this mixed brigade were Japanese!

Therefore, even though so many people died, the remaining puppet soldiers still did not dare to run away, because if they ran away they would definitely die!

Several puppet soldiers were gathered together carrying the corpses, their faces showing fatigue and dissatisfaction, and their eyes revealing a hint of despair.

"There is no way out!" A dark-skinned puppet soldier with squinty eyes broke the silence and said in despair.

"We work hard for the Japanese every day, but we are still just cannon fodder. We have lost 80% of our company, but they still refuse to withdraw!"

"Yeah!" another puppet soldier echoed, "I've had enough of this! Looks like I'm going to die here today!"

At this time, a Japanese officer came over with a look of anger on his face.

"Baga, you're so slow, hurry up!"

"Yes, yes, Lieutenant General Nishimura!"

Several puppet soldiers quickly sped up their movements, and the one with narrowed eyes did not forget to say one more sentence,

"Captain, I'm going to die soon. Please give the remaining money to my wife. It's not easy for her to raise a child!"

The man with squinting eyes spoke slowly, as if he was making arrangements for his last wishes.

There was a bang of a gunshot.

There was a bloody hole on the squinting forehead, and he fell down unwillingly!

Several puppet soldiers were startled and looked back hurriedly, and saw the company deputy Nishimura holding a box gun in his hand, with smoke coming out of the muzzle!

At this moment, several people showed extremely angry expressions on their faces. Someone took the lead and shouted,

"Fuck you, let's fight! We're all going to die anyway!"

Several puppet soldiers threw away the stretchers and rushed forward. At this time, other puppet soldiers also came over and waved their fists at the Japanese together!

Seeing that the situation was not good, other Japanese officers took out their weapons and began to suppress the rebellion.

The Chinese puppet soldiers also opened fire in self-defense.

There was a burst of gunfire and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while. Even the Japanese military adviser Suzuki Shigeichi was shot dead on the spot!

The soldiers on the mountain looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched the exchange of fire within the puppet army. Some were stunned!

The gunshots also attracted the attention of the Japanese army.

The Yamamoto Battalion of the 46th Regiment of the Japanese Army, which was closest to the puppet army camp, saw that something was wrong and immediately mobilized its troops to rush over!

This group of Japanese troops is coming here with great momentum and are planning to take care of these hundreds of "traitors"!

Who knew that there would be a series of loud bangs, followed by several explosions, and several artillery shells fell into the Japanese army's ranks.

This time, dozens of Japanese soldiers fell down!

The Japanese army panicked.

Hastily scattered.

They thought it was the puppet army firing!

Seeing so many Japanese soldiers coming, the puppet soldiers panicked and didn't know where to go. Someone shouted,

"Since we've already fought the devils, let's go to the mountains and join the Anti-Japanese United Army!"

In this way, hundreds of puppet soldiers rushed towards Pingdingshan regardless of everything.

In the pit, San'er didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly called Kang Huaifu.

The sky gradually darkened,

On the Japanese side, the explosions were still continuing. Yin Xinjun hid in the bushes and took advantage of the cover of night to approach the Japanese army!

Tonight, he mainly used the grenade launcher. He had too much ammunition for it, several thousand rounds!

Yin Xinjun kept firing grenades. Sometimes, he switched between mortars and grenade launchers, and would use mortars when the distance was over 500 meters!

He didn't fire for fear of exposing his position, but when the grenade launcher was fired, the sound was very small and there was no flame, so it was much safer in the chaos of the night sky!

It was still early, and Yin Xinjun was very patient. It took him more than an hour to completely clear out this large group of Japanese troops.

During the day today, after receiving many telegrams from the Second Route Army and Kang Huaifu, he planned to massacre the Japanese army tonight!

Yin Xinjun rushed towards Guanyingou, which was not far away.

On the flat top mountain,

The commander of the 8th Company, Deng Hui, and his soldiers warmly embraced the puppet soldiers who came to surrender, but did not take them into the pit!

This was also Kang Huaifu's special instruction. Who knows if the puppet army is performing a double act?

However, when Deng Hui saw the relieved expressions of these puppet soldiers, he had already judged in his heart that they must be surrendering sincerely!

The fighters of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces took out their treasured canned food and biscuits.

Many of the rebel fighters cried while eating. When they were dogs for the Japanese, they had never eaten Japanese canned beef!

But as soon as I arrived at the Anti-Japanese United Army, I was given such a good thing. After all, my compatriots are the closest to me!

After finishing the meal, Deng Hui said,

"Brothers, we have just arrived. We are all very tired after fighting here every day. So, when our baggage train arrives, you can retreat and rest for a few days!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the liberation fighters immediately turned red and they nodded desperately. They didn't want to stay here either. Pingdingshan had become a terrible place that made them feel uneasy!

Kang Huaifu was also a little worried. His plan was to let these liberation fighters receive training first, participate in the grievance movement, etc., and then disband them and add them to each company!

Yin Xinjun's army had already cleared the Guanyingou area, attacking a total of two Japanese camps, as well as checkpoints, patrol posts and other scattered targets, and annihilated more than 2200 Japanese troops!

It’s already the second half of the night!

Yin Xinjun, who was very tired, rested for half an hour. After waking up, he ate dry food while looking at the map!

There is a great benefit to clearing out the Japanese troops piece by piece, that is, we seized a lot of supplies, and more than 10 infantry guns were seized! There are both Type and mountain guns!

The disadvantage is that it is too tiring. You have to concentrate for two or three hours and cannot relax at all. A small mistake can threaten your life!

Originally, Yin Xinjun wanted to attack the Japanese army's headquarters. According to his idea, it should be in the west side of Tokyo town, where the Japanese army camps were next to each other!

But there were too many Japanese troops and the area was a wide open plain, so Yin Xinjun was unwilling to take the risk!

He thought about it and decided to continue clearing the enemy troops from Guanyingou to Zhigou! After all, fighting in the mountainous area would be much safer!

As they advanced along the highway toward Zhigou, Yin Xinjun soon encountered another Japanese camp.

He pulled out his double mortars and began bombarding the camp fiercely!

12th Division Headquarters,

Lieutenant General Uemura Seitaro simply didn't sleep tonight, and he didn't feel like sleeping...

Because he received two pieces of bad news in the first half of the night: the 19th Mixed Brigade of the Manchurian Army surrendered to the enemy, and the 46th Regiment of the Japanese Army was dispersed near Pingdingshan!

This was the most capable and skilled detachment he had! Just thinking about it made him feel bad!
