The wheat detachment had all kinds of technical bells, artillery scouts, air guides, and radio stations with more power than the independent divisions and were smaller.

Although the 14th Air Force of the US Army only has 800 planes, the air force commanded by Chennault is like a fish in water, but the devil air force does not dare to take to the air, and it is estimated that it is afraid that it will not be able to replenish it if it loses it.

"Here it is, the 308th Bomber Group and the 68th Mixed Wing." The U.S. military air guide shouted.

Zheng Lao Fang looked at the dense planes in the sky, and thought to himself, the Americans are more powerful than the little devils, there are so many planes of this size, there are devils who look good.

Aerial bombs fell from the sky, and the "boom, boom, boom" explosions continued to blow up, shaking the hearts of the soldiers.

"This ······ This ······ It's not going to blow up, is it? Old fart Zheng said worriedly.

"It's not going to blow up, damn it, it's blowing up the mountain, and it's all gone." Zhang Ning scolded.

"Hehe, as long as it's not biased, by the way, I don't know how many devils, traitors, and mine traps there are in front of me, this bombing is all gone, I heard that it was Lao Mai's idea, it's really good." Zheng Lao said.

Zhang Ning looked at Zheng Lao's fart: "Battalion Commander Zheng, this is a joint operation with the US army, if it is just our division, who will give you such support, don't even think about it, this is real money." ”

Zheng Lao Fang smiled and said: "Who said no, it can be regarded as borrowing the light of the Americans." ”

Zhang Ning nodded, and said to the translator next to him with a side face: "As soon as the bombing stops, let's move forward and tell Andre to assemble in the front area 11." ”

"Yes." The interpreter replied and immediately informed Andre.

The warriors stared ahead, explosions, flying smoke, sand, gravel, dirt and trees flying everywhere. After a while, the explosion stopped, and the smoke had not completely dispersed, Zhang Ning waved his hand, and the teaching team and the reconnaissance battalion slowly advanced left and right.

The smoke was filled, and Zhu Guowen looked at everything in front of him from behind.

"Is this still reconnaissance? This kind of three-dimensional propulsion has never been thought of before. Zhu Guowen said.

Zhao Liu held the binoculars, looked at it seriously, and smiled: "I knew that it costs money to fight, but I didn't expect to spend so much money, this is the gap between countries, the Americans, the British are high, to be honest, people have high capital." ”

"Who said no, when we were still complacent about being able to eat a mouthful of nests, people in the United States were already using drinking fountains, saying that they wanted to drink the cleanest and most nutritious water, I thought to myself, damn it, drinking water is still so particular, how can we compare with others." Zhu Guowen said.

"Than? Don't even think about it, our generation can't see it, I hope our children and grandchildren can have the ability to compete with Britain and the United States. Zhao Liudao.

"Hopefully, we've been fighting little devils for some years, so it should be soon······" Zhu Guowen said softly.

"By the way, this time I came back with a two-way radio amplitude modulation intercom, and next time I asked the reconnaissance unit to bring it, this thing is good, but the range is too small." Zhu Guowen said.

"How much?" Zhao Liu asked.

"It's less than 2 kilometers." Zhu Guowen said.

"Oh, it's a little small, but it's okay in the jungle." Zhao Liudao.

"What does the division commander think, let Battalion Commander Zheng go out to reconnoitre, Battalion Commander Zheng is shrewd, the question is that he is a recruit, how can he perform such an important and dangerous mission, why is it his turn?" Zhao Liu said again.

Zhu Guowen looked at Zhao Liudao: "Recruits? He Zheng Lao Fart is still a recruit, so most of our division are recruits, so Zhang Ning is at ease. ”

Zhao Liu nodded.

The reconnaissance troop moved slowly, the bombs blowing the ground so soft that they could sink their heels in one foot.

"Watch your step, watch your step." Old fart Zheng shouted.

The staggered trees blocked the way forward, and the soldiers had to climb the trees and mud.

"Captain Zhang, this can't be done, the action is too slow, not to mention, and even the vigilance can't be launched, in case the devil sneaks up, it will be troublesome." Zheng Lao Fart said to Zhang Ning.

Zhang Ning shook his head and said: "It's okay, slow down, don't look at this road is difficult to walk, the branches are horizontal, but it is also the best cover, this kind of road is the safest." ”

Zheng Lao Fart thought about it, the charred animal carcasses along the way, the raging everyone, and no traps of devils were found until the No. 7 area.

A few days ago, it was difficult to move an inch, but today the road was smooth, and at ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Ning and others rushed to the No. 11 area to carry out defense.

Area 11 is not a few kilometers away from the front line of the devil, and it is also the Hukang River Valley area, Chen Fei thinks that as long as he gains a foothold in the No. 11 area, the devil will not have too many secrets to speak of, it is nothing more than to find out how many hidden forts and firepower points have fallen to the ground, and the independent division can be regarded as opening up a mountain road to the Hukang River valley for the 38th Division. It's just that this mountain road is not very peaceful at present, and the devil is not a fool, and he will constantly harass and sneak attack this mountain road.

Chen Fei's headquarters, Merrell came in happily with a telegram and said, "General Chen, the troops have arrived in Area 11, and our mission is half completed." ”

"Oh, okay, let's notify the headquarters quickly." Chen Fei said with a smile.

"We didn't just scout, we opened a passage for them." Merrell Road.

Chen Fei nodded, and Merrill immediately went to send the report.

"A lonely mountain road, whether it can withstand the harassment of the devils depends on the past few days, the 38th Division moves quickly, and if it moves slowly, it may be cut off by the devils again." Chen Fei muttered to himself. He thought for a moment and shouted, "Wang Liang, call Tang Bing over!" ”

"Yes." Wang Liang replied, and after a while, Tang Bing came over.

"Come, Tang Bing, look at it, Zhang Ning's troops arrived here in Area 11 just now." Chen Fei pointed to the sand table and said.

"Oh, it's fast, Commander, it's too long." Tang Bing saw the problem at a glance.

Chen Fei nodded and said: "Yes, the battle line is too long, so the Second Brigade also went out and stationed at 15 kilometers, 45 kilometers, and 75 kilometers, so that the battle line can be shortened." “

"Yes, I'll take the troops out immediately, then······ Here'······" Tang Bing said.

"You can go with confidence, and bring all the artillery of the artillery battalion and fortify it at 75 kilometers, is there a problem?" Chen Fei said.

"Yes, bring artillery, it's too slow to move, or I'll go and lead the troops to set off, and leave the guard company to the artillery battalion, the artillery battalion also has a guard company, which should be able to resist the sneak attack of the devils, and the sneak attack of the devils will be a small force." Tang Bing said.

"Okay, let's go." Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Tang Bing replied, turned around and left.

Chen Fei looked at the twinkling stars outside, thought for a while, and said: "Sanmao, gather all the troops, be careful to arm, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, now we don't have many soldiers here." ”

"Yes." Sanmao replied.

Zhang Ning, who was in the 11th area, Andre and the others launched a reconnaissance of the surrounding area at dawn the next day, but they did not expect that as soon as the detachments left the station, they encountered a large number of devils who were rushing towards the 11th area.

The detachments immediately retracted, established a defensive line at the station, and called for reinforcements at the same time.

The first defensive battle of the Sino-US joint operation began.

Andrei took off his coat, picked up the only Browning machine gun in a reconnaissance unit, pulled the bolt, and waited for the battle.

"The devil is coming." Old fart Zheng shouted. I saw a large number of devils pouring out of front of the position.

"Da Da Da Da~" The heavy machine gun took the lead in firing, and suddenly all kinds of weapons, ping pong bang all fired.

The Browning M2 heavy machine gun uses an air-cooled barrel of 0.5BMG (12.7 mm) large caliber, and its firepower is very powerful, not only beating the devils to the ground, but also breaking the front few trees in front of the position.

Andrei screamed excitedly, he wanted to tell the little devil that this is American power.

The devil's attack came and went in a hurry, and the opponent's firepower was so fierce that it withdrew, leaving behind corpses and stumps, and the blood instantly stained the soil red.

"yes yes yes ······" U.S. troops stood up and cheered.

"These foreign devils are really fierce enough." Zheng Lao Fart said to Zhang Ning.

"Tell the brothers to dig bomb shelters, the devils are about to shell." Zhang Ning said.

But as soon as Zhang Ning's words fell, various types of shells from the devil flew over.

"Boom Boom Boom~"

"Hidden! Take cover! Zhang Ning shouted.

Thanks to the fact that the devils did not fire heavy artillery shells, the trenches were rudimentary, but they were able to withstand for a while.

"It's all 75mm mountain guns, our planes are coming soon, hold on a little longer." Andre ran over to Zhang Ning and said.

Zhang Ning nodded and shouted at the same time: "The commander of the first company sent observers to prevent the devils from using artillery fire to cover the charge." ”

"Yes." A company not far away replied loudly.

Ten minutes later, the shelling continued.

The devil is here! The observation post soldier shouted.

Zhang Ning stretched out his head sideways and looked outside the position, only to see more than a dozen devils holding a Type 99 light machine gun similar to that made in the Czech Republic, advancing in a row, followed by a large number of little devils, Andre also looked sideways.

"This light machine gun is still bayonet?" Andrei asked.

"The little devil's brain is in the water, grenadiers, grenades are ready!" Zhang Ning shouted.

He silently calculated in his heart the distance the devil had advanced.

"The artillery fire is still so fierce, the devil is not afraid of hurting his own people?" Zheng Lao said.

"Regardless of him, fight, prepare, prepare······" Zhang Ning shouted.

Zhao Liuyi received a call from Zhang Ning and immediately arranged reinforcements.

"I'll go, take a battalion and set off immediately with the troops directly under me." Zhao Liu said to Zhu Guowen.

"Well, bring all the mortars in your regiment." Zhu Guowen said.

Zhao Liu nodded and immediately arranged to set off.

"Throw!" Zhang Ning shouted, and at the same time threw a grenade himself.

"Boom, boom~" An explosion sounded.

The fighters threw grenades and got up to shoot.

"Da Da Da Da~" The devil's bullets flew over intensively, and many soldiers were knocked down as soon as they raised their heads and stretched out of the trenches.

Zhang Ning gritted his teeth and got up to shoot, grenades and grenadiers did not cause much damage to the devils, it turned out that the devils were lying on the edge of the fallen trees and shooting at Zhang Ning and others.

More than a dozen light machine guns were not small, and the casualties of the fighters came up at once.

An American soldier had just taken over Andrei and wielded the Browning heavy machine gun, and was blown away by the devil's grenadier without firing a few shots.

At this time, both sides were red-eyed, and they all raised their guns and got up to shoot.

Andrei ran back and forth in the positions of the American troops with a gun, shouting from time to time: "Shoot, shoot!" "I don't care about the devil's shells exploding on the position.

"Bazooka!" An American lieutenant shouted, and suddenly one fighter carried the bazooka bazooka, and another soldier loaded a long rocket in the back, and then patted the helmet of the firing soldier.

The launcher got up, took aim, pulled the trigger, and a rocket dragged the red tail flame straight to the devil's position.

"Boom~" The rocket exploded in front of the trees on the devil's charging line, and the devil's firepower weakened immediately.

"Whoosh~" was another rocket, this time exploding in the crowd behind the devil, disrupting the devil's stormtroop formation all at once.

Zhang Ning looked at it and secretly applauded, he retracted the trench and changed a magazine, at this time he realized that they were reconnaissance troops, and the ammunition was pitiful.

"Save ammo! Save ammo! Zhang Ning shouted.

But at this time, the devil's shelling stopped, and the devil kept shouting: "Onboard! "Begin the pig assault charge.

"Bazooka!" Andrei shouted, but there was no movement behind him, and as soon as Andrei turned around, the two fighters of the launch team were killed.

"!" Andrei cursed, ran to the back with a fighter, and he personally carried Bazooka and launched.

Two rockets exploded in the Devil Charge formation, crushing the Devil in one fell swoop.

The devils immediately made a comeback with the cooperation of light machine guns and grenadiers, and this time the devils were determined to take down the expeditionary force in the area of No. 11, and the attack was very fierce, and the mortars exploded on the position like rain.

Andrei fired two more rockets, but he didn't suppress the devil's attack, he wanted to fire again, but the rockets were gone.

Zhang Ning looked at the devils rushing up in front of him, knowing that the most difficult moment had come, he shouted: "Get on the bayonet!" Get on the bayonet! At this time, not only the Chinese troops of the expeditionary force, but also the American soldiers silently loaded their bayonets and prepared for the final fight.

"Grenade ready!" Zhang Ning and Zheng Lao Fart shouted at the same time, the two of them were pale, now it is a matter of life and death, there is no tactic to speak of, only desperate, no one has a look of fear on their faces, as if all this is going to happen sooner or later.

Suddenly, the roar of aircraft motors was heard in the sky, and three US SBD dreadnought dive bombers appeared. It is said that it is a bomber, in fact, it is a kind of high-altitude horizontal bombing by fighters using precision optical sights, and this kind of bomber has two types of bombers, the navy and the army, and is a good means of striking on both the sea and the ground.

With a strange sound, the fighter swooped down from a high altitude and bombed the charging devils.

Explosion, firelight, dust, the devil was shrouded in the explosion in an instant, Zheng Lao Fart was dumbfounded, thinking that at this moment, so many devils would be blown up,.

"Hit!" Andrei shouted, and a dense stream of bullets fired at the devils in front of him.

Zhang Ning retracted from the trench and took out a cigarette, and thought to himself, this time it was really a blessing and a great fate, and he escaped again.

After the plane dropped the bomb, it flapped its wings and flew away, as if it had never been. But the corpses of a large number of devils in front of the position speak for themselves.

"Consolidate the trenches and dig anti-artillery holes!" Old fart Zheng shouted.

I don't know when the next battle will come, you must be well prepared, this is the style of the independent division, no matter how hard and tired it is, it is better than being exposed to the fire of devils.

Finally, there is no one who can move on the battlefield ahead.

"Andrey! Ceasefire, ceasefire! Zhang Ning shouted.

U.S. troops stopped firing one after another.

"Save ammo!" Zhang Ning shouted.

"Dog's day dwarf!" Andrei said as he spat forward.

At this time, the hygienist began to bandage the wounds of the lightly wounded soldiers, and several commanders also began to count the number of soldiers and place the fallen soldiers.

"Zhang, how many soldiers did you sacrifice?" Andrei came over and said.

"Counting." Zhang Ning said as he handed Andre a cigarette, and the two went from knowing each other to fighting and becoming friends.

"The deputy division commander called just now, and Regiment Commander Zhao came up with reinforcements." Old Zheng came over and said.

"Division commander, the eyes are vicious, as soon as we are stationed here, it is like a sharp knife on the stomach of a devil." Zhang Ning said.

The two of them were stunned at first, and then they both laughed.

Chen Fei Command.

"Division commander, Zhang Ning called, just now, they fought with the devil, the position was held, and Zhao Liu was supporting." Liu Xiaomei came over and said.

"Oh, Area 11, we have to gain a firm foothold, with this fulcrum, it will be much more convenient for us to reconnoiter in the future, by the way, will they suffer big casualties?" Chen Fei said.
