Dragon and Tiger Pass, the headquarters of the Ito Brigade.

Standing in front of a map, the commander of the Ito Brigade was carefully considering the military situation.

According to the operational arrangements of the division and regiment headquarters, the four wings of the Ito Brigade have been divided into four routes and swept towards the Dabie Mountains.

In the face of the Ito Brigade's troops, the Shina Army was crushed.

The four wings basically followed the original route, like the division of tigers and wolves chasing the Chinese army.

It's just that the Matian United team is not at all restless.

According to intelligence, the captain of the Atian Brigade was eager to show his face in the entire Ito Brigade in order to take off the hat of the second-rate wing, so he actually took a risk and took the Yizi Valley, intending to take a shortcut to seize Xitang Town.

However, the terrain of Yizi Valley is very complicated, if the Zhina army sets up an ambush here, then the Matian United is afraid that they will not be able to eat and go around!

The more the commander of the Ito Brigade thought about it, the more wrong it became, and the Asada United was afraid that it would be more than lucky.

And the 38th Wing has not yet arrived at the designated position to pick up the Ma Tian United.

If the Matian United team makes a mistake at this time, the 38 United team does not know if it can quickly rush to the aid of the Matian United team.

While he was thinking about it, the chief of staff walked in through the door of the command room.

A military salute was given to the commander of the Ito Brigade, and the chief of staff of Matsushima shouted: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander! The Ma Tian Wing was really ambushed by the Chinese Army in the Ichiko Valley, and the chief of staff of the 96 Wing just wanted us to ask for support! ”

With a look of anger on his face, the commander of the Ito Brigade shouted, "Yaga Yalu! This Ma Tian is also too eager to rush forward, and in order to snatch the merits of the war, he does not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of his subordinates, which is extremely stupid! ”

Walking to a map, the chief of staff of Matsushima shouted: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, now that the matter has come, we must find a way to rescue the Matian Wing!"

Pointing to Ewha Village on the map, the commander of the Ito Brigade exclaimed in a deep voice, "Where is the 36th Wing now?"

The chief of staff of Matsushima shouted: "After Aoki-kun received the telegram, he has not yet sent a telegram to our brigade headquarters!"

Shocked in his eyes, the commander of the Ito Brigade shouted, "Yaga, what does this Aoki-kun want to do?"

The chief of staff of Matsushima shouted: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, in order to gain time, I believe that Aoki-kun may still be on the way, it is not convenient to restore the power at this time!"

The commander of the Ito Brigade advised: "Signal soldiers, the communication detachment must keep calling on the radio, and once the Aoki Wing is contacted, it must rush to Ewha Village immediately!"

The devil messenger shouted, "Hay!"

At this time, the chief of staff of Matsushima shouted again: "Your Excellency, brigade commander, in order to reduce the defensive pressure of the Asada Wing!" We must ask for support from the Imperial Air Force in Peiping! ”

The commander of the Ito Brigade shouted: "Hmm! The high ground on the slopes on both sides of the valley is the key to whether the Matian Wing can turn the corner from danger to safety, and we must send the air force to bomb it! ”

The key to the ambush in the valley lies in the commanding heights.

The vantage point poses the greatest threat to the Asada United.

If the fighters of the Imperial Air Force had carried out a fixed-point bombardment of the commanding heights of the Ichigoku battlefield at this time, then the Ma Tian Wing would have been able to turn the tide and might even have a counterattack by that army.

After a pause, the commander of the Ito Brigade raised his voice and shouted, "Signal Corps!"

A devil signal soldier replied: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!"

The commander of the Ito Brigade shouted: "Immediately send a telegram to the Beiping Imperial Air Base, requesting the Third Air Group to immediately dispatch fighters to fly over the Ichijo Valley to carry out support operations!"

The devil messenger replied, "Yes!"

……

Xitang Town, murderous, gunfire shook the sky.

A brigade of the 38th Wing is launching its fifth offensive to the outlying field positions of the Seventh Independent Brigade!

In the first four attacks, the 7th Independent Brigade held very tenaciously.

No matter how fierce the attack of the devil soldiers was, the position of the 7th Independent Brigade was still as stable as Mount Tai.

On the contrary, the devils of the 38th Wing lost at least two hundred people.

Captain Aoki didn't expect that the Chinese army had been defeated, why did there still be such a dare to fight in Xitang Town.

But in order to defend the honor of the 38th Wing, the captain of the Aoki United is determined to take Xitang Town.

With a sudden draw of his saber, Captain Aoki opened his voice and roared: "Warriors of the First Brigade! Idiot! Idiot! ”

Hearing the order, several Type 92 heavy machine guns on both sides of the battlefield were arranged to rain bullets on the field fortifications of the 7th Independent Brigade!

Da-da-da-da!

Almost at the same time, the Devil Rifle Group, the Light Machine Gun Group, and the Grenadier Group of the First Brigade took cover alternately and rushed forward to attack!

In the first four attacks, Captain Aoki was obviously underestimated by the enemy, and the Shina Army, which thought it was a field fortification, was simply vulnerable, and as long as a squadron was placed, it could be easily occupied.

Who would have expected that the defense of the Zhina Army in the field fortifications would be so tight, and the devils would lose in four battles.

Therefore, Captain Aoki can only invest a brigade-level force at one time.

Holding a telescope to watch the battle formation, the captain of the Aoki Wing exclaimed, "If we had used a brigade earlier, this battle would not have been fought like this!"

The chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the reason why we lack the necessary reconnaissance of the enemy's situation is that we are too light on the enemy!"

With a slight sigh, the captain of the Aoki Wing shouted: "Underestimating the enemy is a taboo for soldiers, and when Xitang Town is taken, I will indulge the soldiers to loot Xitang for three days to calm the soldiers' complaints!"

While the two were talking, the devils of the 1st Brigade had broken through the outer positions of the 7th Independent Brigade.

The devil soldiers and the fighters of the 7th Independent Brigade engaged in a white-knuckle battle.

In white-knuckle combat, the devil soldiers obviously have the upper hand.

Within ten minutes, the outer line of the 7th Independent Brigade collapsed.

The remaining soldiers of the 7th Independent Brigade retreated within the walls of Xitang Town!

Seeing this scene, the chief of staff on the side shouted: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, we have occupied the outer positions!"

With a satisfied smile on his face, Captain Aoki exclaimed, "Yo Xi! Banner soldiers, order the first brigade to clean up the battlefield and prepare to attack the city wall of Xitang Town! ”

With a word of agreement, the flag soldier who walked to a high ground took out two triangular signal flags and gave an order to the first brigade in the distance!

Soon, the 1st Brigade replied to the flag and stood by as ordered.

Captain Aoki shouted to the commander of the artillery squadron again: "Artillery, immediately bombard the wall of Xitang Town for fifteen minutes!"

The commander of the artillery squadron shouted, "Hai!"

In the next moment, rows of cannonballs whistled and poured towards Xitang Town.

Shout! Shout! Shout!

Boom Boom!

Fifteen minutes later, the walls of Xitang Town were blown open one by one.

The devils of the first brigade shouted and poured into the gap in the city wall of Xitang Town.

Seeing this scene, a smile bloomed on the corner of Aoki's joint captain's mouth.

No matter how tenacious the Shina Army in Xitang Town was at the beginning, once Captain Aoki got serious, then everything was a floating cloud.

Now, the captain of the Aoki United is determined to win, and it is only a matter of time before the town of Xitang is occupied.

At this moment, the chief of staff walked over to Wing Captain Aoki with a telegram from the brigade headquarters!

The chief of staff Zhengse shouted: "Your Excellency, the Matian Wing was ambushed by the Chinese Army in Yizi Valley, and the brigade headquarters ordered us to reinforce quickly!"
