Yan Laoxi consulted Principal Jiang, and Principal Jiang, who was far away in Yucheng, also knew very well that once the devil broke through the defense line in North China, he was afraid that it would be dangerous.

The North China Defense Line is a solid defense line that the Third Theater has been operating for many years, and if it is broken through by devils, then there will be no decent defense line behind it.

If one is not done well, the devil will have to go all the way south along North China, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the current good situation will no longer exist.

In President Chiang's eyes, the international situation was not suitable for a major war, because at this time, the support of the United States, Britain and France and other powerful countries could not provide much, Germany was overwhelmed in Europe, and the situation in Africa was not optimistic.

All of this makes President Jiang want to see more is to wait silently, waiting for the right opportunity.

However, the loss of Lone Peak and the devil's massive assault made him have to order a war!

Although he gave the order to hold the front, he knew very well that in fact, this was also tantamount to an all-out war!

Of course, even if there was no order from Principal Jiang, Yan Laoxi would have to do it.

The area around Lone Peak has become the main battlefield, and the two sides have mobilized more than 500,000 troops to fight in this small area, but they have also launched attacks on each other from time to time in the surrounding area, and they have responded to Lone Peak!

Perhaps, whether it is a devil or Yan Laoxi, they would never have thought that the inconspicuous Lone Peak would become the breakthrough and main battlefield of the entire North China War!

In fact, the terrain around Lone Peak is not advantageous for the Chinese army, and around Lone Peak is a huge plain area.

For the Chinese army, which is good at defense, it is naturally not good news.

But the war is like this, there are not so many options at all, behind the lonely peak is the Yellow River, and on the other side of the river is the second-line defense built by Yan Laoxi.

But everyone knows that if the forward position is lost, I am afraid that a large area of North China will be directly controlled by the devils, and it will be extremely difficult to counterattack.

The battle of crossing the river is not so simple.

Therefore, this is also the main reason why the terrain around Lone Peak is not good, but the battle still has to continue.

This is a helpless choice, but also an inevitable choice!

More than half a million troops have gathered here, making the day like night, and the night is as bright as day!

During the day, the artillery on both sides continued to bombard, and the smoke and dust made the entire position extremely dark!

In the night, the flares of both sides kept rising into the air, making the night as if it were day!

Corpses piled up, and the condensed blood stained the earth black!

However, the battle is endless!

Here, neither side can build strong fortifications, so to speak, the most effective fortifications are only trenches!

Because this is the plains!

Of course, at this time, from the mainland, there is constantly sand and gravel cement transported to the front line, but it is not transported to the front line, but to the edge of the Yellow River!

Yan Laoxi is very aware of the gap in combat power between himself and the devil, and now, he is delaying time with the life of a warrior, so that he can also build river defenses on this side of the Yellow River!

This is a helpless choice, but also a must choice!

……

In fact, on the battlefield, it is not the infantry or artillery of the devils that frightens the soldiers the most!

The continuous battle has made the soldiers accustomed to such days, besides, at this time, Yan Laoxi actually still has an advantage, and the devil broke through from the lonely peak, in fact, at this time, he is in a situation of encirclement on three sides!

The positions around Lone Peak were not lost.

Relying on the positions on both sides of the lone peak, Yan Laoxi directly arranged the back of the lone peak into a pocket array, it can be said that once the devil broke into it, he would directly fall into the situation of being surrounded on three sides!

It's just a pity that the devil's combat power is much stronger, which leads to such a dominant pocket array, but it can't eliminate the devil at all, but the devil is crazy and wants to break the bottom of the bag!

At the same time, the plane of the devil in the sky is the most helpless and resentful existence for all the soldiers on the battlefield!

Relying on air superiority, it can be said that every time the devil air force attacks, the fighters have no effective means of defense at all.

Yan Laoxi has already taken out all his air defense resources, but air defense is needed to build river defense and other fronts, so how many air defense forces can be left around Gufeng!

……

"Hey, these damn devil planes, if only we could have planes......"

Yan Laoxi sighed and said.

However, at this moment, beside him, the staff officer he had always trusted spoke: "Perhaps, our plane will be able to arrive soon!" ”

"Oh, how do you say?"

Yan Laoxi raised his head in surprise and looked at this staff officer, he knew that this staff officer had a connection with Yu Chengfu, and he was able to get some information that even he didn't know.

"As far as I know, the principal has been contacting the Americans, hoping that the Americans can send air teams to support our country, but the United States and the devil have not declared war before, so there has been no result, but recently, there is good news, it is said that the Pearl Harbor incident has made the Americans extremely angry, and many people in the United States have begun to support aid to our country!

If my speculation is correct, I'm afraid, US Air Force assistance will not be far away! ”

Yan Laoxi's face was overjoyed when he heard the news.

In fact, in fact, Yucheng Mansion is not without planes, but unfortunately, just two or three kittens are really sent to the battlefield, which is almost a death.

Moreover, in China, pilots are expensive, and Yucheng Mansion at this time has almost no conditions for training pilots by itself.

The few pilots in Yucheng Mansion are basically those who have succeeded in their studies abroad and then come back spontaneously, and even some of them, although they are Chinese, are no longer Chinese nationals!

It's just that what Yan Laoxi never expected was that the good news came so quickly!

Just when he was still having a headache, a phone call came, and it brought a huge piece of good news.

That is, the air force is coming!

Chennault has come to China since the invasion of devils, and he also founded an aviation school, and this time, it was he who kept wandering, and finally brought a group of volunteer pilots in the United States!

However, perhaps because of the Pearl Harbor incident, the American pilots who came to support this time received the acquiescence and support of the United States, and with the support of heavy money, Chennault recruited hundreds of pilots and mechanics, and even got some fighters!

And these fighters, are about to arrive!

The order given to Yan Laoxi by the Commander's Department was very simple, let him choose a suitable place as soon as possible and build a field airfield!

After receiving this tremendous good news, it can be said that Yan Laoxi did not hesitate at all, directly mobilized the troops of the three divisions, and made sure to open up the airfield before the arrival of the flying brigade, day and night.
