Han Xing nodded, and then said to Zhang Zuogan: "Director Zhang, contact the Air Force, all the helicopter squadrons are coming, and some of them are responsible for the attack on the Japanese attack on Stone Mountain." The other part took our southern expeditionary army, as well as a platoon of the national army, plus the wounded, and withdrew to the main position in Miling. ”

Zhang Zuogan agreed: "Yes!" "Quickly execute the order and go.

After a while, 6 Z-8 helicopters flew in. They all opened hatches on both sides, each with a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun mounted on it. The best retreat is to attack, and Zhang Fei also adheres to this tactical principle.

Six Z-8 helicopters circled around Stone Mountain, looking for the best angle and distance to deliver a key strike on Oshima's squadron.

The "Sudden ......" and "Da Da Da ......" heavy machine guns began to clear the men and horses of Oshima.

The powerful 12.7 mm heavy machine gun bullets hit the rocks of the stone mountain, and the stones flew around, and the 12 mm steel plates could penetrate, not to mention the bodies of Japanese officers and soldiers.

Originally, there were not a few soldiers left in the Oshima squadron, and they were all climbing, and they simply couldn't spare their hands to counterattack. Even if you fight back, it is also the ears of the deaf - ornaments, dead things against living things, that is not the blind man lighting the lamp - in vain!

One by one, the Japanese soldiers were knocked down the hill and, like their accomplices, rolled down the valley and fed the wolves.

Oshima only felt a numbness in his shoulder, broken, and shot, he instinctively thought, only to see that a stream of blood gushed out of his shoulder, and half of his military uniform was soaked.

He had orderlies, guards, communications soldiers, and health soldiers, but they were all killed in battle. At that time, he was a bit of a fluke, and it seems that the bullets can't find me! I am the pride of the army, and the bullets fly away from me.

But now, his feelings have completely changed, how lonely he is, there are few people around him who are panting, they all hold on to the rope and climb alone, just to save him, and they don't have the ability to do so.

Your Majesty the Emperor, Amaterasu, come and save me! I am your son, please, save me!

Squadron Leader Oshima called out an urgent voice from his heart.

Helicopters are still shooting. "Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly, ......", "da-da-da......", and a few more soldiers rolled down to the bottom.

The squadron leader of Oshima tilted his head and suddenly found that these planes were different from ordinary planes, with a dragonfly-like structure, a big wing fanning vigorously on the top of the plane's head, and a huge propeller blowing gusts of wind, blowing so much that he couldn't hold the rope.

"Yo Xi, Yo Xi, China has such strange planes, I can't beat them!" Squadron Leader Oshima let out a heartfelt exclamation!

Another bullet flew and hit the lower leg of the squadron leader Oshima, he felt that the leg might be broken, and he didn't obey the call at all, he was really stuck in this place, he definitely couldn't go up, and he couldn't go down, so he could only resign himself to fate.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, Amaterasu, I am devout to you, and I dare not blaspheme the slightest, please forgive your son! Help me—"

Squadron Leader Oshima felt that the blood on his body was about to drain, his body was getting more and more shriveled, and his nerves were becoming more and more blurred, he felt that he could no longer hold on to the rope, so he could only mutter: "Your Majesty the Emperor, why did Amaterasu punish me, it seems that I am guilty, I am guilty, I am guilty......"

In front of his eyes, dozens of Chinese who were killed by him suddenly appeared. They were all reaching out and pulling him, trying to drag him to the bottom......

"I'm guilty, I'm guilty! I'm guilty!! Before leaving, he finally knew who he had offended.

In a murmuring whisper, he let go of his hand, threw himself back, and fell to the bottom of the bottomless valley, where he was shattered like all the officers and men of his squadron.

Zhang Fei confirmed that the Japanese troops in the whole squadron were killed by helicopters, so he flew to the top of the mountain and rescued Li Dazhong's squad. The rest of the helicopters flew to Stone Mountain again, rescuing the officers and men of Han Xing's company of the Southern Expeditionary Army and Wang Shengli's platoon, as well as some wounded.

Of course, getting on the helicopter on the top of the stone mountain was also a test for Wang Shengli's officers and soldiers. But I've seen such a scene a long time ago, and besides, it's easy to get on the plane and difficult to get off, so there's no need to repeat it.

All of Han Xing's Southern Expeditionary Army joined Zou Jiyan's troops at Miling. The two discussed, since the stone mountain was about to be lost, it was possible for the enemy to outflank Miling, and it was impossible to defend on this Miling for a long time. When I saw it, I took it, so in the evening, with the support of the air force, I retreated again.

In fact, at that time, the Japanese army had already gone around the rear of the 70th Division of the 107th Army from the flank, but it did not dare to attack. The battle of the fortified forces in the past few days has deeply frightened the 33rd Division, which has actual combat experience, so unless its own side has a superior number and it is daytime, the Japanese army will not dare to attack at all.

Zou Jiyan's battalion retreated all the way to Jinjiang, and often encountered small Japanese troops along the way, and saw the fire they made. But as soon as Zou Jiyan's battalion arrived, these Japanese troops immediately extinguished the fire and fled in all directions, not daring to attack at all.

In this battle, the 70th Army defeated the 33rd Division very badly, but its own casualties were not light. Zou Jiyan and his 320 regiment suffered nearly 500 casualties, accounting for one-third of the entire regiment. The other two regiments in the division suffered similar casualties.

In this way, on March 17, the 70th Army retreated to the third line positions of Shangfu, Ganfang, and Kuzhuao, preparing for the final decisive battle.

The 33rd Division followed to the Shangfu line and had to engage in a head-on decisive battle with the 70th Army.

After a day of hard fighting between the two armies, the 72nd Army of the 30th Group Army of the Sichuan Army in the northern Jiangxi region suddenly came in from the flank and cut off the retreat of the 33rd Division. The 33rd Division was caught off guard and was caught between the two flanks, falling into confusion for a time and suffering heavy casualties.

At this time, the morale of the 33rd Division had been seriously damaged, and the division was not formed for a long time, and was built in Sendai in 1940 in the 14th year of Showa (December 25, 1926).

Although well equipped, most of the soldiers were new recruits and none of them had been fighting for more than 1 year. Even the division commander Sakurai Kozo was still the deputy chief of the Army Transportation Department in 1938, that is, an officer of the Transportation Department, and did not lead troops.

This time on the Shangfu front, it was fiercely intercepted by the 70th Army of the National Army, and it was attacked by the side of the 72nd Army, which made matters worse, and the soldiers' decadent war-weariness became more obvious.

At night, the Japanese army did not fight, but simply lit piles of bonfires to bluff themselves. During the day, if the air force cannot support it on a rainy day, it also refuses to fight. When the infantry charges, if the artillery cannot be effectively supported, the infantry does not charge.

There was even a phenomenon where officers sternly ordered the infantry to charge, and some soldiers wept bitterly before setting off, which did not exist in the previous Division A divisions. If anyone dares to cry, they will definitely be beaten mercilessly!

In fact, these troops, which are mainly recruits, have made great strides with the past divisions of the first and second divisions, and they have lost the tenacious style of the Japanese troops in the past, in order to implement the tactical intentions of the commanders, and would rather have broken jade than complete the task.

To put it bluntly, these recruits are: afraid of death!

At this time, the commander of the division, Lieutenant General Sakurai Province, received an order from the Japanese military headquarters to let the 33rd Division retreat immediately after completing the flank support mission and prepare to go north to North China.

Sakurai was already frightened by this kind of bitter battle, and at this time, Shang Fang's sword appeared, so he naturally couldn't ask for it. He hurriedly deployed a breakthrough, and on the night of the 18th, the Japanese army barely broke through the blockade of the 72nd Army of the Sichuan Army and fled north to Fengxin.

In just three days of fighting, the 33rd Division suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and the division's participating troops only had more than 10,000 people, so the casualties were really not light!

At this time, the 33rd Division suffered heavy casualties, and it was actually difficult to immediately go north to fight in North China. In order to avoid being scolded by the Japanese military headquarters, Sakurai no longer dared to continue to go south to fight against the 34th Division and continued to flee north.

Therefore, the 214th Wing of the 33rd Division abandoned Fengxin at midnight on the 18th, and the 215th Wing continued to retreat north at dawn on the 19th, and returned to the Anyi area of the starting place on March 23.

After arriving in Anyi, the division sat down and began to rest and replenish, preparing to go north to North China.

Thus, the Japanese army on the North Road is finished!

The Japanese army on the northern route is finished, but the task of the southern expeditionary army has not yet been completed, and it is still in a task to fight the Japanese army on the southern route.

The attack on Kamitaka was completed by Naozo Ikeda's independent mixed 20th Brigade, and they had only five brigades in total, leaving one brigade to defend the original territory, and four brigades following Naozo Ikeda.

There were about 1,000 people in one brigade and 4,000 people in four brigades, and in order to make up for the lack of troops, the 11th Army Corps equipped them with a powerful artillery wing, and wanted to use dense artillery fire to clear the way for the infantry. This mixed brigade is not usually used for attack, and the combat experience of the officers and men is only limited to sweeping up the guerrillas in the occupied areas.

As soon as the brigade attacked, it was blocked by the 49th Army of the National Army.

Han Xing wanted to support the 49th Army and had to deal with Commander Liu Duoquan. And now, the last thing Han Xing wants to deal with the national army is Liu Duoquan, why? Of course, this has to start with the Battle of Fengxin in the Battle of Nanchang at 21:30 on March 22, 1939.

At that time, there was a howitzer regiment in the 49th Army, with 38 howitzers, and the regiment commander was Wang Dawu.

The Japanese devils raided Fengxian County and poisoned the howitzer regiment. Han Xing had already calculated, saved people and artillery, saved the howitzer regiment, and inflicted heavy losses on the attacking enemy.

After the battle, the howitzer regiment could not find its owner, and the regiment commander Wang Dawu and all the officers and men of the regiment were willing to join the Southern Expeditionary Army, and the Southern Expeditionary Army took them over.

Later, Liu Duoquan and Han Xing met again, and Liu Duoquan opened his mouth to propose the return of the howitzer regiment, but Han Xing skillfully refused.

This time, if you want to subdue the 20th Brigade, you must rely on the 49th Army, and if you want to fight in conjunction with the 49th Army, you will inevitably deal with Liu Duoquan.
