Mustang fighters in the air, full of firepower, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of little devils.

As long as you are hit by a 12.7mm bullet, you will either have a broken arm or a broken leg.

Dense bullets flew around the enemy, some of the ghost soldiers' heads were blown open by bullets, some of the ghost soldiers had broken limbs, and some of the ghost soldiers were swept into several pieces by machine guns.

"Da !!"

Countless bullets swept the ground, dirt and gravel flew everywhere,

"Run, Run!!"

More than 1,000 little devils used their internal strength to escape, and the enemy was scattered and fled by the fighters.

The devil soldiers fled here and there, holding their heads, dodging the bullets flying around.

All the way on the ground were the corpses of devils killed by fighter planes, and the number of corpses was as high as hundreds.

Several Mustang fighters pursued the enemy for several kilometers until they had exhausted all the on-board machine gun ammunition and the pilots of the security regiment returned home.

The warplanes departed with the sound of engines, the gunfire around them was sparse, and a few explosions were occasionally heard around the battlefield.

Although the battle is over, the smell of gunpowder and blood is still strong.

The surrounding area was filled with the smoke of war for five or six kilometers, the corpses of the enemy were strewn all over the position, and the wreckage of the devil's chariot burning with thick smoke and flames could be seen not far away.

The little devil was defeated in too haste, and all kinds of weapons, equipment, ammunition and materials were left on the position, and the corpses of his companions were too late to take away.

In this battle, the little devil's vicious tactics were exhausted, four or five tons of artillery shells were consumed, and the two divisions and regiments still failed to take the outlying positions of Taierzhuang in joint operations.

The devils of the two divisions dispatched nearly 6,000 troops, suffered more than 2,000 casualties, damaged more than a dozen combat vehicles, wiped out all the aircraft groups, and destroyed and discarded countless guns and artillery.

Despite the enemy's heavy casualties, in the end, it ended up with a crushing defeat for the little devils......

Li Hong inspected the battlefield that had ended, and then he and Zhang Baohua walked out of the division headquarters, and the two of them went to the front line to inspect the casualties of the troops.

"Brother Hong, this battle is really gratifying, not only a heavy setback to the Japanese army, but also a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army!" Zhang Baohua said excitedly.

The two of them patrolled the frontline positions together, chatting a few words about the battle situation from time to time, and then they went to visit the casualties together.

If it weren't for the help of Li Hong of the security regiment, Zhang Baohua wouldn't have dared to think of winning the battle with less and winning the battle with the weak than the strong.

In the past, when fighting with little devils, the casualty ratio was at least 5 to 1, and even in defensive battles, the casualty ratio was as high as 3 to 1.

This victory did not bring much excitement and joy to Li Hong.

Because there are 3 divisions of the Japanese army outside Taierzhuang, this casualty does not constitute a threat and impact on the war situation for the devils.

In his prediction and judgment, this battle can only be regarded as a small victory for Taierzhuang.

If the 20th Army Corps of the Central Army outside Taierzhuang can successfully encircle and annihilate it, then this will be a great victory that will go down in history.

……

The 5th and 10th Divisions of the Japanese Army suffered successive setbacks in the Taierzhuang area, and for this reason, the North China Command of the Japanese Army sent a telegram to reprimand.

Itagaki and Isoya, two old devils, wore a pair of pants, and they colluded and unanimously blamed the reason for the defeat of the battle on the 4th Division in Osaka.

The 4th Osaka Division cowered just to preserve its strength, which was clear to the commander of the Japanese army, Toshiichi Terauchi.

Originally, the Japanese headquarters' battle plan for Taierzhuang was that the 5th and 10th Divisions would attack from the front, and the 4th Division would attack from the north of Taierzhuang, so as to put pressure on the Chinese troops defending the city, so as to instigate the attack of the other two divisions.

As a result, Yuzaburo Matsui, the commander of the 4th Division, watched the fire from the other side, and only sent a small group of troops to fire a few shots at the Chinese defenders in the northern position.

Of course, the generals of the Japanese command are not idiots, the 4th Division has been fighting passively, and it is impossible to sit idly by.

If Taierzhuang is not broken, it will affect the Japanese army's strategic plan for Xuzhou.

In order to break the city as soon as possible, Terauchi Shouichi immediately gave the 4th Division a death order in the name of the commander.

Taierzhuang, twenty kilometers outside the north city, the headquarters of the 4th Division of the Japanese Army.

At this time, a devil Shaozo was reading several telegrams from the headquarters in the headquarters.

The content of the telegram was not a military intelligence mission, but a reprimand for the division commander Yuzaburo Matsui for his unfavorable operations.

Yuzaburo Matsui's hob meat, listening to a scolding telegram from his bloody head, didn't take it seriously at all.

Soon, the devil Shaozuo read out the last telegram.

This telegram was sent by Shouichi Terauchi, and Yuzaburo Matsui began to panic a little when he heard the telegram ordering the 4th Division to seize the northern position as soon as possible, otherwise, after the word seppuku, Yuzaburo Matsui began to panic.

The urgent telegram sent by this commander is not a joke, if Matsui Yuzaburo is passive and refuses to contribute, Terauchi Shouichi will definitely chop off his dog's head.

It seems that this time the commander is really in a hurry.

Immediately, Yuzaburo Matsui summoned a number of devil officers and generals to discuss with each other what other ways to avoid the battle and reduce the casualties of the 4th Division.

Nohara Kojiro, the chief of staff of the devil, said: "Your Excellency the division commander, the commanders of the Itagaki and Isoya divisions have complained to the base camp, this time, the commander has already given us a death order, I'm afraid, our 4th division can no longer fight passively, otherwise, the base camp will really sanction us." ”

Yuzaburo Matsui walked a few steps in the headquarters in a depressed mood, and said angrily: "Itagaki and Isoya are two straw bales, they can't take down Taierzhuang, but instead put the responsibility on our 4th Division, they are embarrassed, it's really hateful!" ”

There were more than a dozen devil officers and generals in the conference room, and none of them took the initiative to fight.

In fact, not all of the backbone officers of the 4th Division are wastes with no combat experience, but the whole division and regiment are united in their determination to be cannon fodder for fearless death.

Nohara Kojiro thought for a while, and slowly said to all the officers: "Everyone, the battle of Taierzhuang, our 4th Division can't avoid it, although we can't beat the security regiment, but we can pick a soft persimmon and pinch it, and make a show for the base camp to see." ”

Nohara Kojiro's operational policy was that the security regiment would not provoke if it could not be provoked, and the enemy mainly attacked the 18th Independent Brigade of the National Army guarding outside the northern city of Taierzhuang.

The 18th Independent Brigade of the National Army is subordinate to the 2nd Group Army, and the 18th Brigade has nearly 4,000 officers and soldiers.

"Yo Sai, Nohara-kun, great idea!".

Yuzaburo Matsui and other devil officers agreed with Nohara Kojiro's battle plan, and did not oppose the security regiment inside the city, but only fought the 18th Brigade of the National Army outside the city.

The 4th Division of the Japanese Army will never attack rashly and foolishly, and will not fight uncertain battles, and once the 4th Division starts, it will hardly lose a battle.
