While the Chinese army was in a hurry to dispatch troops, the 10th Division Command of the Japanese Army did not realize that its careful arrangement of concentrating forces to break the 20th Corps of the Chinese army had been exposed. (The operation of the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army was purely a matter of making extra money. Liu Tianlong, a division commander from a beard, did not report to the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, and did not dare to report it after the war.)

On the whole morning of May 7, the Japanese army only completed the task of shifting the combat direction of the Hatan Detachment (a Japanese corps has been strengthened.) as planned, and began to start the main force of the 20th Corps in Guposhan area on the night of May 7. The Japanese army tried to first solve the worries of the Seya Detachment, which was fighting fiercely with the Chinese army in Taierzhuang, and then turn around and concentrate our efforts to fight the life and death with the Chinese army on the front line of Taierzhuang.

From a purely military perspective, this move is a wonderful move. When facing an advantageous enemy, the tactic of concentrating the superior forces to defeat each of them in the battlefield is also the Japanese army's combat style.

In keeping this tactical action confidential, the Japanese army also took great pains to take the main force of the Hatan Detachment to the side of the 20th Legion, and wanted to fight to make a decision.

But God’s plan is worse than man’s plan, just because the bandits of the Ninth Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army are difficult to change. The Japanese army’s wishful thinking is destined to fail!

Although the commander of the 20th Legion had nothing outstanding in military command, he was very sensitive to the safety of the main force of the legion. Even when he was fighting fiercely with the Sakamoto Detachment, the 110th Division, which belonged to the 20th Legion sequence, did not enter the battle, but was responsible for the rear of the main force of the defense army. This shows how much the commander of the legion attached to his troops' retreat.

After receiving the command of the War Zone Command that there were multiple brigades of the Japanese army. The commander of the army had an unknown whereabouts. The corps commander even allocated the 328th Brigade in the reserve to the command of the 110th Division, and sent the 330th Brigade to support the two wings of the Legion. The main force of the legion, which faced the Sakamoto Detachment head-on, became more cautious in combat, and tried to maintain the situation where the whole army could immediately complete the turnover. He also ordered all units of the Legion that did not directly fight with the Japanese army to quietly build defensive fortifications. This was certainly a far cry from completing the tactical goal of defeating the Sakamoto Detachment and the main force of the Second Army issued by the war zone, and undoubtedly made it unlikely that the Japanese army's attempt to sneak attack on the 20th Legion would be realized.

At the same time, more than 6,000 attack detachment composed of the 100 Independent Brigade and the 174th Brigade of the 16th Army launched a Xunmeng attack on Guanhu Town.

The 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army in Guanhu Town has a total of two brigades and an independent regiment, with a total force of about 6,000 people, which is as large as Cheng Jiaji's attack detachment. In terms of equipment, the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army, established in 1933, was the first of the ten stylistic divisions prepared by the Puppet Manchukuo Army. It also fought with the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces between Baishan and Hei River for many years, and still had a certain combat effectiveness.

In the prediction of Lieutenant General Isotani Risuke, the commander of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, even if a Chinese army attacks the puppet military division, the 9th Division of the puppet Manchukuo Army can resist for at least 30 hours. At this time, the Japanese army should have completed the task of joining forces with the Sakamoto Detachment to defeat the 20th Corps on both sides. The Japanese army can withdraw some of its troops from the Hatan Detachment and return to the defense of Guanhu Town, the former defense land.

Although this is just Lieutenant General Risuke Isotani, it still makes sense from the simple comparison of military strength. In the history of war, there are many battles where one side defends one division’s position, and the other side has no breakthrough in two or three days with the strength of one army.

If we only look at the equipment and combat power of the troops, we should guarantee the division commander that if the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army could hold up the Chinese army for more than two days, Colonel Yamada, the consultant of the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army, did not speak loudly.

Unfortunately, what they met was Cheng Jiaji, who never played according to the rules.

At 3:00 p.m. on May 7, a team of more than 100 Japanese troops drove out of Guanhu Town. The Japanese troops entered Guanhu Town very lightly.

Guanhu Town is currently the location of the division headquarters of the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army. There are about 1,1200 independent regiments of the Puppet Manchukuo Army and a relatively strong field fortification. It is the location of the core fortifications of the Puppet Manchukuo Army.

In theory, places like this should be heavily guarded, but this team with a large number of people did not undergo too strict inspections. The reason is very simple. First, the Japanese were the masters of the Puppet Manchukuo army, second, the number of people in this army was not large, and third, the unique arrogance of the Japanese people who were authentic from head to toe. This third point is particularly important. The officers and soldiers of the Ninth Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army have been slaves for four or five years for the Japanese. I dare not say anything else, and I will never make any mistakes about the behavior of their masters.

Marching among the puppet troops, Tian Jiafu tried hard to pretend, and when he faced these servants in the past, he was also cheering up his destiny for his destiny.

This time, he really came to live and die. If this team of less than 100 people was exposed, or if there was a guy who was too loyal to the emperor in the former Japanese army, there was a guy who was too loyal to the emperor. Even if Tian Jiafu's life was not explained immediately, he would have to fight with these traitors immediately. (In order to show his "loyalty" to make China, all the daily words of Tian Jiafu were already the same as those of Chinese patriotic youth, and even more radical. This made Cheng Jiaji funny, but he often reminded him that some words should not be used randomly in the national army, otherwise the people from the Political Training Department would cause trouble for him.)

This kind of thing is something that Tian Jiafu never wants to happen. He betrayed his "country" just to survive and continue to enjoy the beautiful time of flowers and birds singing in this world? It is not to take risks with his life again and again.

Thinking of this, Tian Jiafu knew very well that he had no way out. If he left the protection of the general (referring to Cheng Jiaji), he would not even dare to think about the way he would deal with a person like him. Only by being loyal to the General, he would have a bright future. What's more, as long as he could complete the battle mission this time, the General not only promised to give him a 2,000 ocean, but (he had been a policeman in Northeast China for several years, but knew that two thousand oceans meant what kind of life a person could live in China,) he would also be promoted to a first-level military rank, and by that time he would be a lieutenant colonel.

Of course, what made Tian Jiafu most excited was the plan to expand the "Guiyi" army composed of Japanese prisoners of war that Cheng Jiaji told him. Thinking that he might command thousands of people in the future, this must have made Tian Jiafu, who had been very difficult to advance to the Japanese army because of his poverty and humble background. He was determined to officially swear to the general this time to become a slave of the general, and it would be better to change his surname to Cheng. At that time, he would be very powerful and see who dared to look down on him.

The loud "salute" of the sentry in front of the puppet army's division interrupted Tian Jiafu, who was immersed in his fantasy of happiness, reminding him that he had arrived at the door of the 9th Division of the Puppet Manchukuo Army, targeting the operation.
