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

Chapter 545 Ye Feng's Weakness

To the east of Jinling City.

Fifty miles away, Ye Feng, Song Yu and Liang Long, joined the anti-Japanese armed forces stationed here.

"Commander, this place is called Xinling. There are five villages around it. To the east is Yangzhou City."

"During this period, although the Japanese were defensive, they also continuously sent small groups of troops to launch small-scale attacks on our positions. Each time, a team of 100 people launched a surprise attack, and the main target was the place where we stored military supplies and weapons."

"By the way, five days ago, the Japanese in Jinling City stopped a fierce offensive. They sent out two regiments to attack from the north and south, and brought a large number of mortars to bombard our positions. Fortunately, we have been in a state of combat readiness, and the soldiers fought desperately and repelled the enemy's attack. However, during the battle, many civilians were hit by the Japanese shells, and hundreds of people were killed or injured."

"In the past few days, the Japanese devils have become quiet again, holding their ground and acting like turtles again."

The one who told Ye Feng about the situation in Jinling was Brigade Commander Zhou Dashan. He has been in charge here since Ye Feng and Song Yu and others left.

Ye Feng said, "Of course the Japs don't dare to come out, because I escaped death in Hubei."

A few days ago, the Japanese devils dared to launch a large-scale operation because Ye Feng was trapped in Hubei.

If he could not break through and return in the end, Ye Feng was very sure that Zhou Dashan and his troops would be surrounded and killed by a large number of Japanese troops. After all, there were tens of thousands of Japanese main forces in Jinling City.

Of course, there is another very important reason why the Japanese troops in Nanjing City did not launch an all-out attack.

The anti-Japanese armed force led by Ye Feng is quite powerful.

Especially during defensive battles, the commanders of each regiment, battalion, company, etc. were well versed in the defensive tactics taught by Ye Feng.

Even though there are only 10,000 troops here, most of whom are new recruits, it is more than enough to stop the attack of tens of thousands of Japanese.

This is also the reason why the Japanese will not attack with all their strength. Even if you win by sending out tens of thousands of people, you will definitely suffer heavy losses. But what will you get in the end? A few ruined villages?

Ye Feng said, "In two days, the Fourth Front Army's Commander Su will lead a troop of new soldiers here. Brigade Commander Zhou, as Commander Su's adjutant, you will fully cooperate in the mission of attacking Jinling City."

Zhou Dashan was puzzled and asked, "Division Commander, why is it Division Commander Su who is in charge of commanding the battle? What about you?"

Ye Feng said, "I have to go to the Yan'an headquarters. This combat mission is mainly to train the troops. Don't worry, when it comes to tactical changes on the battlefield and commanding the battle, Commander Su is more than one level higher than me."

Ye Feng felt that as long as Commander Su led the new recruits to fight a few battles in Jinling, the soldiers would definitely be deeply shocked and intimidated by him. After all, this predecessor of the party organization would become a founding hero who made countless military achievements in the future.

Just talking about the matter of commanding the battle, Ye Feng even felt that Commander Su could definitely be ranked in the top three.

Afterwards, Zhou Dashan led the way, and Ye Feng began to observe the situation of the positions around Xinling.

Because the army had received a large number of new recruits, Ye Feng's arrival did not cause any commotion.

After checking the last position, Ye Feng and his companions were about to return when they met a dozen ordinary people.

The people carried baskets, brought food and water, to thank the anti-Japanese armed forces for protecting them and to thank their own Chinese soldiers.

Zhou Dashan smiled proudly and said, "Commander, you don't know that when we were stationed here, several villages around us were oppressed by the Japanese all year round. We were also oppressed by the traitors supported by the Japanese. We lived in poverty, and we had no food to eat. We were often forced to build fortifications and move goods. Anyone who dared to resist would be immediately massacred by the Japanese."

"After we arrived, we allocated some of the military supplies to the people and helped them eliminate the evil forces in the surrounding areas, making their lives better. Everyone is very grateful to us."

After listening to this, Ye Feng immediately had a big doubt in his heart.

At a time when the situation is tense like this, shouldn't ordinary people show up, let alone deliver food and water?

The reason was very simple. Ye Feng still remembered that Zhou Dashan once said that there had been an offensive and defensive battle with the Japanese a few days ago. The battle was very fierce. The Japanese madly bombarded the positions and surrounding areas. Many civilians were implicated and killed.

How many days had it been since that brutal battle ended?

Have the people walked out of the shadow of war? Have they walked out of the sorrow of losing their loved ones?

Ye Feng looked at the food brought by the people again, mostly wild vegetable dumplings, and couldn't help but frown.

It is indeed easy to pick wild vegetables in the nearby mountains and rivers, but the wild vegetables used in the wild vegetable dumplings in the hands of the villagers are obviously not available for picking nearby and require going far away.

Will people go far away to pick things?

You have to know that it is wartime now, and there are Japanese scouts and spies lying in ambush somewhere nearby.

At this time, who dares to go out casually?

Ye Feng was suspicious and turned on his map spy scanning system. To his surprise, these dozen or so civilians were not the Japanese spies represented by the red dots, nor were they the Shancheng agents represented by the yellow dots.

"It shouldn't be!"

Ye Feng expanded the scanning range and conducted a coverage scan of the surrounding area of ​​several kilometers with himself as the center.

Before long, a few yellow dots appeared on the map, about two kilometers away, high up on the hillside beyond them.

"Blood Rose, is this you?" Ye Feng had a thoughtful expression, because Huang Gou had told him that Blood Rose, the top agent, had a secret conversation with Director Dai of Shancheng and prepared a plan to assassinate Ye Feng.

According to Huang Gou's guess, Blood Rose felt that she couldn't kill Ye Feng openly, so she took advantage of Ye Feng's weakness.

Ye Feng’s weakness is obvious: protecting the people and always putting his fellow Chinese people first.

Since Ye Feng cannot be killed by force, then use the people to kill him.

In an instant, Ye Feng figured out the truth of the matter. The dozen or so people in front of him should be unaware that they were being used by Blood Rose. These tempting-looking wild vegetable dumplings were probably filled with deadly poison.

As the people were offering food enthusiastically, Ye Feng secretly muttered to Zhou Dashan:

"The food is poisonous. There is a group of Shancheng agents on the hillside with dense bushes at ten o'clock."

"You cover me, I'm going to capture those agents alive."

"Oh, by the way, three civilians have small explosive packs hidden in their thick cotton-padded jackets. Remember to find a way to deal with them."

"Don't hurt the people, they are just too kind and are being taken advantage of."
