The adroit guerrilla tactics created by President Kim Il Sung during the anti-Japanese armed struggle are clearly recorded in the history of the Korean people’s anti-Japanese war as an almighty treasured sword capable of defeating the Japanese imperialists with numerical and technical superiority with strategic and tactical superiority.
In December 1935, a unit of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army which was active in the area of Emu County moved to a mountainous forest area on the order of Kim Il Sung . Soon, the enemy got wind of this and dispatched the "punitive” force there.
Upon hearing the report on this, Kim Il Sung told commanding officers that they would launch a battle at an unimaginable place; they would boldly go out to the hills and annihilate the enemy by the method of allurement and ambush there.
The anti-Japanese units that were active there at that time were mainly based on rugged mountains, so the enemy did not pay much attention to hills. A decoy party lured the enemy to the place where the guerrillas laid in ambush. The enemy, who had not expected a battle to break out in the hills, was all killed. This tactic is the “net tactic” which struck terror into the enemy.
The following happened in the spring of 1938.
One day, on the order of Kim Il Sung , the KPRA sent a notice to the enemy that it would attack Liudaogou.
On receiving the notice, the enemy brought in reinforcements and strengthened their guard day and night. But the KPRA did not appear. Kim Il Sung sent a similar notice to the enemy again.
The enemy did not sleep for several nights making a fuss. The KPRA did not appear this time either.
Exhausted, the enemy sent back all their reinforcements saying that guerrillas were only sending false notices.
At this time Kim Il Sung issued an order of assault. The KPRA units rushed into the enemy's fortress with high morale and defeated the enemies, victoriously concluding the battle.
Upon hearing that Liudaogou had been attacked, the enemy officers were stunned, saying that the notice was mysterious.
Thanks to the many fighting methods and tactics created by Kim Il Sung during the anti-Japanese armed struggle, the Korean people could defeat the Japanese imperialists and successfully accomplish the historic cause of national liberation (August 15, 1945).
