From the factory of Northwest Industrial Company to Beiguan Airport, the distance is very close. I feel that the little devil's tanks and armored vehicles have just driven out, and it will be in front of me in a while.

The second company and Zhao Xiuchuan arrived one step earlier with four rapid-fire guns and joined the third company.

Zhao Xiuchuan, Li Hubao, and Liu Li of the artillery corps, like Wang Meng, commander of the third company, and Cao Ming'an, commander of the second company, are all masters who have experienced a hundred battles and have rich experience in actual combat.

As soon as he arrived at the position of the third company, Zhao Xiuchuan glanced at it, and chose a short wall surrounded by a half-person high rammed earth 100 meters away on the east side of the road, which seemed to be the place where the coolies who were caught at night when the devil built the cement road into the field, and there should be a thatched shed on it. By this time, the approach road had been built, and the coolies' quarters had been demolished, leaving only the half-human-high wall.

Under normal circumstances, this half-high earthen wall is useless at all, not to mention that the Japanese tanks can easily crush the wall into dirt, even the Japanese light and heavy machine guns can easily shoot through the earthen wall, making the enemy who may be hidden in the half-high half-human earthen wall a target.

Four rapid-fire guns were quickly deployed here, and the muzzles of the black holes pointed at the cement road leading to the airport from the north gate of Taiyuan City and from the Northwest Industrial Company.

When Wang Meng, the commander of the third company, saw Zhao Xiuchuan, he said clearly: "Lao Zhao, the terrain here is open and there is no shelter, let the soldiers rush up and burn the *burning* bottle, the casualties are too great!" Your artillery is coming, and if the devil tanks and armored vehicles are coming, they will be handed over to you! You are responsible for knocking out the tanks and armored vehicles of the devils, and the rest is ours! ”

That being said, Wang Meng actually didn't have much hope for this kind of rapid-fire cannon with a slender barrel, and he still pinned his hopes on his burning *burning* bottles, grenades, and explosives packs. Knowing that the use of explosive packs, burning * burning * bottles, and grenades in this terrain has caused heavy casualties, but we still have to fight like this, who let us be Chinese soldiers and the Eighth Route Army?

Seeing that the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were guiding the devil infantry to pounce up, Wang Meng, the commander of the third company, habitually put his hat on the shell gun, and his eyes instantly became bright and bright, and he ordered in a low voice: "Pass down, light and heavy machine gun grenadier rifles, aim at the devil infantry and beat it!" The whole company is called by the sound of my guns, I don't shoot, no one is allowed to shoot! Prepare for the blasting team and ****** group! ”

At this moment, behind the half-cut short wall 100 meters on the east side of the road, artillery captain Zhao Xiuchuan ordered in a low voice: "Target: Japanese tanks in front, No. 1 and No. 2 guns will hit the first tank, and No. 3 and No. 4 guns will hit the second tank." Reload with one shot, fire! ”

Last time the stone measuring station hit the Japanese army's ironclad patrol vehicles and armored vehicles, Zhao Xiuchuan and they used the captured Japanese Gaoping dual-purpose guns. That cannon has a longer range and more power than these four 37mm rapid-fire guns, and without armor-piercing shells, just ordinary high-explosive shells can be used to wreckage the little devil's armored car. Now, Zhao Xiuchuan, Li Hubao, and Liu Li used rapid-fire guns for the first time, and their understanding of this kind of cannon stayed at the level of knowledge, and they didn't have a spectrum in their hearts, so they concentrated their artillery fire on tanks and used two guns to deal with a tank!

The four shells flew out of the barrels almost at the same time, and rushed straight towards the two Japanese light tanks on the road, and under the eager gaze of Zhao Xiuchuan, Li Hubao, and Liu Li, they drilled into the side of the Japanese tanks.

Almost at the same time, the shell guns in the hands of Wang Meng, the commander of the third company, and Cao Ming'an, the commander of the second company, rang out, and the word "type" flew out of the mouths of the two company commanders, and the light and heavy machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, and pistols on the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army all opened fire, and strings of bullets were splashed on the Japanese reinforcement airfield team like a wind.

The first hit was made, the artillery captain Zhao Xiuchuan was overjoyed, and spit out a string of orders from his mouth, and the four rapid-fire guns were reloaded again, and the muzzles of the guns were pointed at the two armored vehicles of the Japanese army!

Just as the Japanese troops on Crouching Tiger Mountain could not have imagined that the Eighth Route Army would directly use the Gaoping dual-purpose artillery on the airfield air defense position to bombard their artillery positions, the little devils who hurried to reinforce from the barracks of the Northwest Industrial Company's factory could not have imagined that their magic weapon for victory, the chariots of the Great Japanese Army, would be destroyed by the rapid-fire artillery of the Eighth Route Army!

The two armored vehicles that followed closely behind the chariot reacted a moment later, reversing first and retreating towards the west side of the road, trying to avoid the shells fired from the east, and then began to counterattack, the vehicle-mounted machine guns rattled and fired towards the short wall on the east side.

The little devils behind the tanks and armored vehicles were even more unlucky, they were all exposed to the light and heavy machine gun and rifle fire of the blocking troops of the Eighth Route Army, and they were beaten to the ground, and those who were lucky enough to survive quickly lay down on the ground and shot back.

At this moment, the two armored vehicles that were reversing on the west side of the road were suddenly enveloped by a flying ******.

The sound of clattering impact sounded one after another, and the ****** fell onto the armored car, shattered, and the viscous liquid mixed with white sugar was all poured on the armored car, and the flames instantly expanded, enveloping the two armored vehicles in flames.

Those devil infantry who were lucky enough not to die watched as the armored vehicles of the Japanese Army, which relied on as a sharp weapon for infantry attack, burst into flames and exploded, turning into two piles of scrap steel!

Zhao Xiuchuan and the others also failed to fire a second shot, saving four shells!

The two tanks and two armored vehicles that solved the little devils, the light and heavy machine guns and rifles of the second and third companies fought more happily and fiercely, and even the grenadiers joined the battle, and the grenadier grenades flew towards the long march of the Japanese army as if they had eyes, and the little devils cried wolf!

The devil commander was so broken by this sudden blow that his mouth was split into a 0-shape, and it didn't take long for the order to retreat.

The devil commander is also smart enough, he has lost his tanks and armored vehicles, and his troops are exposed to the open field, which is purely a target, and he must retreat and go to the factory area to rely on the favorable terrain to hold on. Otherwise, the firepower of the Eighth Route Army that blocked the attack was so fierce, his troops would be disabled, and even the collective jade would be shattered!

The independent battalion fought differently from other Eighth Route Army units.

Due to the long-term lack of ammunition supply, other units of the Eighth Route Army generally blew the trumpet of the charge after three rounds of rifle fire, and fought into the enemy line with an indomitable momentum, so as to give full play to the superiority of our army in close combat. In this way, when encountering the permanent divisions of the Japanese army, which were superior in physical strength and assassination skills to our army, the casualties of the Eighth Route Army were heavy.

The independent battalion was different, and Xiao Siming's tactical thinking instilled in the troops was to give priority to firepower and try to avoid hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army.

No, the little devil retreated, and the second and third companies of the independent battalion did not blow the trumpet on the position, on the contrary, the light and heavy machine guns and rifles hit more urgently, and the bullets chased the devil's buttocks, and the little devils hit like dumplings, fluttering and falling straight to the ground!

The Japanese troops reinforced from the barracks of the Northwest Industrial Company to the airport were divided into two parts, and the one that rushed to the front with the tanks and armored vehicles roaring and roaring was the infantry squadron of the 20th Division stationed at the airport, and behind them was the airport air defense brigade that really belonged to the Temporary Aviation Regiment of the North China Front of the Japanese Army. In terms of numbers, the number of the Japanese airfield air defense brigade was much larger, and some of the 1,000 men were wiped out on the air defense positions, and at least 7 or 800 people remained. These devils are all anti-aircraft artillery and machine gunners, and they are less equipped with rifles, so they naturally have to follow behind the infantry squadron when they are reinforced.

The devil's artillery and anti-aircraft machine gunners all belong to special forces, that is, technical arms, in the Japanese army. These guys, running behind when reinforcing the airfield, rushed to the front when they turned around and retreated, and they were all live targets of light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and rifles of the Eighth Route Army. On the contrary, the squadron of devil infantry that rushed ahead with tanks and armored vehicles during reinforcements showed the brave and tenacious fighting spirit of the permanent division. Under the sudden blow, the dead died, and the living lay down on the spot, shot out, and shot at the second and third companies. It was the devil commander who gave the order to retreat, and these remnants of the gang also crawled on the ground and shot in an attempt to make a counter-attack and cover the devil brigade behind them to retreat to the factory area.

These devils are destined to die a miserable death!

It's fighting here, and the devils stationed at the north gate of Taiyuan City have also gone out of the city to reinforce!

It was at this time that Xiao Siming came to the three-company blocking position, and with him came two Gaoping dual-purpose cannons pulled by pack horses.

The night attack on Taiyuan Beiguan Airport, which blew up 48 Japanese planes, has successfully completed the task of this operation. Next, what Xiao Siming has to do is how to withdraw from the battle safely, instead of fighting with the little devil here!

In other words, after blowing up 48 Japanese planes, there is no need to take advantage of the victory to expand the results of the battle and pursue the number of enemies to be destroyed.

Sure enough, the Japanese troops on Wohu Mountain, who had re-established their artillery positions, finally found the target for shelling again and began to fire artillery at the blocking positions of the third and second companies.

Wohu Mountain is an important position of the Japanese army to garrison Taiyuan, and the artillery on it is a heavy artillery that the Jin Sui army did not have time to transfer and blow up when it evacuated Taiyuan.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Siming immediately ordered the second and third companies to concentrate their firepower to eliminate the desperate and stubborn devils who covered the retreat of the Japanese army, and then called Wang Fufu, the deputy captain of the artillery team who came with him, and pointed to the dark and secluded Beiguan City Tower in the distance, and shouted at Wang Fu: "Give Lao Tzu a bombardment of it!" ”

Wang Fufu straightened his chest, roared "yes" loudly, turned around and commanded the cannon, aiming at the Taiyuan Beiguan Tower!

In the dark, no matter how good the moonlight is, the sight is not as good as the day. But the goal of the Beiguan Tower in the ancient city of Taiyuan is too big, and you can see it clearly from such a distance!

Just a few minutes later, the two Gaoping dual-purpose guns completed the shelling preparations, with Wang Fufu's "one shot, fire" password, two shells flew out of the barrel, rushed to the distance of the dark Beiguan Tower, boom, boom after two loud noises, the Beiguan City Tower collapsed, stirred up smoke and dust in the night to the sky, forming a long-lasting pillar of smoke!
