Bright sword, I have a red police base car

When Yoshio Shinozuka was doubting his life about the Red Alert's air strikes, the general offensive force led by Zhang Ning also began a cleanup operation in southern Jiangsu.

Since the troops were in complete chaos and the command system of the Japanese 17th Army had been destroyed by themselves, the Red Alert's combat operations became extremely easy.

As the main force of this attack, Gao Haizhou, commander of the 4th Combined Battalion of the Red Alert Force, and Liang Shuo, commander of the 5th Combined Battalion, were anxiously ordering their troops to speed up and attack.

Although the Japanese devils could no longer cause any trouble now, Liang Shuo and Gao Haizhou were worried that if their troops were slow, the enemy would reap most of the gains.

That scene was so fucking ugly.

They are all main combined battalions, no one can afford to lose face like this guy!
So the soldiers of the 4th and 5th Combined Battalions began to rush to encircle and suppress the remaining Japanese troops.

Since the entire combat area is large and wide, the actions of the two battalions are all guided by reconnaissance aircraft in the sky.

At the same time, Zhang Shijie, who was in Dagu Mountain, looked at the current battlefield situation map of East China and asked Chen Xi beside him: "Chief of Staff, what is the current status of the Japanese 17th Army?"

"According to the intelligence department and the front-line troops, the Japanese 17th Army suffered heavy casualties in our attack. The remaining troops have now lost their command, and the remaining devils are now fleeing in all directions within our encirclement."

Zhang Shijie calmly lit a cigarette after hearing this and asked Zhou Jingren behind him, "Old Zhou, does our labor camp have enough staff now?"

"Commander, we haven't had any new prisoners for a long time. We have to be frugal with the remaining devils and they'll barely be enough."

Hearing this, Zhang Shijie nodded, and then gave an order: "Notify Zhang Ning, let Synthesis Four and Synthesis Five try to capture as many prisoners as possible, the labor camp is running out of people!"

"Yes, Chief!"

In just a few words, Zhang Shijie and the Red Alert's commanders decided the fate of the remaining Japanese soldiers in the 17th Army.

After receiving the task, Zhang Ning immediately conveyed it to Gao Haizhou from Synthesis 4 and Liang Shuo from Synthesis 5.

The two also carried out mole-catching activities in southern Jiangsu.

"Haruta-san! Look, there's a village ahead!"

"Yoshi! We can finally have a meal!"

Seeing the village appear before them, the two soldiers were overjoyed.

At this time, the two little Japanese soldiers were wearing tattered civilian clothes, their faces were covered with thick dust, and because they had not eaten for a long time, they were pale and thin.

In order to escape from the Ping'an County Security Corps, the two devils not only changed their clothes into those of ordinary people, but also abandoned all their weapons and ammunition.

It is also because of this that the two of them did not become the target of the Red Alert Air Force.

While these two Japanese soldiers were heading towards the village, the captain of the New Fourth Army's armed work team nearby was conducting a public trial of the director of the village maintenance committee in the threshing ground.

The director of this maintenance committee is a die-hard traitor!
Not only did he provide food and supplies to the Japanese during the war, helping them to exploit the people, but even his two sons all joined the puppet army. After being completely captured by the Japanese, they relied on their status in the puppet army to bully men and women in their own village and surrounding villages.

In view of this situation, the soldiers of the New Fourth Army believed that there was no need to try this family and they could just be taken out and shot without any charge of wrongful conviction.

However, considering that the people needed to have an outlet for their emotions, the New Fourth Army soldiers dragged out the director of the maintenance committee and his family, sentenced them to death in front of the people, and then shot them.

"Load the gun! Take the safety off and fire!"

“Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang.”

"it is good!"

As these traitors who were a scourge to the village were shot one by one, the surrounding people instantly burst into thunderous cheers.

The two Japanese soldiers who had just arrived at the village entrance were stunned for a moment after hearing the gunshots and the cheers of the people.

What is the situation in this village?
Just when the two Japanese soldiers were thinking about whether to leave the village, the secret sentry in the village discovered the two "masses" approaching.

"Fellow villagers, where are you from? How did you get here?"

Before the Red Alert troops launched the attack, the New Fourth Army in Jiangsu region had already notified the surrounding villages in advance.

Villages with tunnels hid in the tunnels, and villages without tunnels either moved to other places or went into the mountains to avoid the war. These two strangers walking around made the New Fourth Army soldiers and militiamen confused.

Where did these two people come from?

After hearing the questions from our soldiers, the two Japanese soldiers immediately panicked and hesitated, not daring to answer.

After all, they are Japanese, and two small soldiers at that. Not to mention their accents, they only know a few simple sentences in Chinese. As soon as they open their mouths, they will be exposed.

Seeing these two suspicious people, the New Fourth Army's secret sentry immediately called for support, and a squad of New Fourth Army soldiers came out and captured the two men.

The two Japanese soldiers revealed their true colors in front of the New Fourth Army and became prisoners of the New Fourth Army.

At the same time, the two combined battalions of the Red Alert Force also began to encircle and annihilate the Japanese stragglers.

"boom!"

"The Ping'an County Security Team is here! Run! Run!"

The Japanese troops collapsed on the spot after being bombarded by the Red Alert's tanks, but the Red Alert's main combined battalion had been fully mechanized, and the infantry units directly outflanked the Japanese army in wheeled armored vehicles.

"Thumbs up~"

"Surf the gun and don't kill!"

"撃つがkillさないでください!"

The Red Alert soldiers first fired a short burst of shots from the anti-aircraft machine guns on the armored vehicle, killing more than a dozen Japanese soldiers, and then they shouted to the Japanese to surrender their weapons and they would not be killed.

After hearing the Red Alert soldiers' calls, the Japanese soldiers threw down their weapons without saying a word and began to surrender.

Not to mention anything else, the Japanese 17th Army had already been demoralized during the confrontation with the Red Alert Force, and after the Korean Red Alert Force and the Eighth Route Army launched the attack, they began to collapse in a very short time.

The 17th Army no longer had any desire to fight, as could be seen from the fact that all Japanese commanders at the regiment level and above abandoned their troops and fled.

How could these Japanese soldiers, who had no command, no support, and no guarantee, fight back when they were surrounded after being attacked by air?

Therefore, the troops of the 4th and 5th Combined Battalions easily captured a large number of prisoners. At this time, the last combat force of the Japanese army was not in these Japanese defeated soldiers, but in the suburbs of Nanjing.

While the top brass of the Japanese 17th Army were seeking to retreat, the 6th Combined Action Battalion in Shanghai had already completed the division of southern Jiangsu and northern Zhejiang.

All the Red Alert troops deployed in Shanghai and Jinshan were mobilized to block the 17th Army's retreat route to the south, so they can only gather as many troops as possible in the Nanjing area and find a way to contact the 5th Army and the 15th Army in Zhejiang to support their southward movement.

At this time, the headquarters of the 17th Army had already assembled about a regiment of troops in the area around Nanjing.

"Commander, isn't it a bit unrealistic for our troops to break through the Ping'an County Security Corps now?"

A regiment of Japanese troops was gathered from scattered soldiers. Except for a few squadrons responsible for guarding, the rest of the regiment was temporarily mixed.

It is no exaggeration to say that the general does not know his soldiers, and the soldiers do not know their generals.

For such a force to take the initiative to attack the Ping'an County Security Corps and break through the defense line, even the Japanese army themselves felt that it was a pipe dream.

So after a period of discussion, the Japanese decided to gather some more troops and launch another attack on the Ping'an County Security Corps.

However, although the Japanese 17th Army had completely collapsed, there were still Japanese troops in southern Jiangsu resisting the Red Alert forces.

After all, the Japanese army deployed not only the 17th Army in East China, but also some independent combat units at the division level.

The Japanese Army's 16th Independent Mixed Division was stationed in Yixing County at that time, and during the bombing by the Red Alert Force, the overall casualties of the division were not high because the division was deployed in a relatively dispersed manner.

At this time, after assembling, the division encountered an infantry company of the 4th Combined Battalion and prepared to ambush it.

However, before the Red Alert forces take action, they will be guided by reconnaissance aircraft.

The Japanese's camouflage seemed relatively complete to the ground forces, but it was a bit too conspicuous from the perspective of reconnaissance aircraft. After all, the reconnaissance equipment of the Red Alert Air Force did not rely solely on vision, but also included a large number of optoelectronic equipment and thermal imaging equipment.

The Japanese soldiers in ambush were as conspicuous as lice on a monk's head in front of the Red Alert's reconnaissance plane.

Even these Japanese soldiers don’t know that this infantry company of the Red Alert Force came because of them!

"405, this is Sky Eye 18. The Japanese troops are setting up positions about 5 kilometers ahead of your unit. Please pay attention to anti-ambush operations!"

"405 understand!"

After receiving the early warning from the reconnaissance aircraft, the Red Alert Force immediately deployed its troops outside the Japanese army's line of sight to carry out an outflanking reconnaissance mission against the Japanese army.

After the ground reconnaissance troops arrived, the Red Alert troops discovered a problem. There were too many Japanese troops!
They can't even handle it alone!

No matter how powerful the Red Alert was, it was impossible for it to annihilate an entire division of the Japanese with the strength of a reinforced company.

And judging from the current situation, this Japanese army unit is different from the 17th Army.

If it were the 17th Army, it would be impossible for them to assemble a force of this size to carry out an ambush operation.

However, within the Red Alert Force, the troops of the 4th and 5th Combined Battalions are now very scattered, and there is not enough time to assemble them.

At the same time, the First Quick Reaction Battalion, which served as a support combat force, was on the other side of Taihu Lake and could not be mobilized to the location in a short period of time.

Therefore, the 405th Company of the Red Alert Force could only seek help from air support.

Just as the 405th Company was preparing to attack the Japanese Army's th Independent Mixed Division and calling for air support, the th Combined Battalion in the direction of Nanjing had already begun to outflank the th Army's troops assembled here.

The Japanese are currently unable to launch an attack on the Red Alert Force, but the Red Alert Force has the ability to encircle and annihilate them!
When the Japanese army was gathering its troops, Zhang Yuge's 6th Combined Battalion dispatched two companies of infantry and two platoons of tanks to cooperate and outflank the Japanese army from the east and west directions.

If Zhang Yuge hadn't wanted to fight an annihilation war, it would have been enough for the 6th Combined Battalion to dispatch only one company.

When the commander of the 17th Army of the Japanese Army learned that the Ping'an County Security Corps had taken the initiative to attack them, he immediately ordered his troops to prepare to break out. While the Ping'an County Security Corps had not yet completed the encirclement, the troops of the 17th Army were thinking of disengaging immediately.

"Run! Ha-ya-ko!"

After receiving the order, this regiment composed of defeated soldiers ignored the orders of their immediate superiors and started to run directly to the rear.

When the Japanese officers saw that their troops were beginning to lose control, they immediately began to order the troops to retreat and break out in an organized manner.

After all, retreat is organized, while retreat without command is called rout!
However, when the Japanese grassroots officers began to issue orders, they finally discovered the biggest problem of their troops. Even the organization of their troops had just been formed. Even if the Japanese officers wanted to give orders to their troops, they didn't know who belonged to their troops.

When most of the Japanese soldiers saw their squadron leader, they didn't know that he was their commander.

Anyway, we don’t know each other, so why do you care about me?
So in this situation, these defeated soldiers who had just been gathered became defeated soldiers again.

Seeing that its last regiment was unreliable, the 17th Army Command began to retreat with its guard troops.

It doesn’t matter whether we break through or not now, just run away first!

However, the Japanese were the only organized force among the chaotic soldiers, and they were indeed quite conspicuous under the observation of reconnaissance aircraft.

As long as you are not a retard, you can tell at a glance that this is a big fish!
So, under the guidance of the reconnaissance plane, while the main forces of the two infantry companies were encircling the enemy, the two companies each sent an infantry platoon to infiltrate the defeated Japanese troops under the cover of the armored forces.

"Baga, the Ping'an County Security Team is coming!"

"It's a black card, it's onboard!"

When they saw the tanks of the Red Alert Force, several Japanese soldiers holding "Taijun Happy Sticks" immediately rushed out.

However, as soon as these Japanese soldiers rushed out, they were all killed by a round of fire from the anti-aircraft machine gunners on top of the tank.

"At 1 o'clock, enemy transport vehicle, destroy!"

"40 fire! Fire!"

"Boom boom boom boom."

In the Red Alert's quick and safe attack, the headquarters of the Japanese 17th Army and all its senior cadres were completely wiped out in the battle.

The remaining encirclement troops also completely surrounded the fleeing Japanese soldiers. (End of this chapter)
