After Zhang Xinghua came out of the office, he immediately took his two comrades-in-arms and set off one after another in three ultra-long-range Zero fighters.

The Zero fighter has a range of 3,000 kilometers, and now in the air force units of the Northeast New Army, it is not only a long-range fighter, but can also be used as a bomber and reconnaissance plane.

It was used as a multi-purpose aircraft.

As far as the current surname of the Zero fighter is concerned, it is still quite good, and it is fully capable of these tasks.

The flight distance from Changchun to Bohai Bay is only 5 to 600 kilometers, which is far from reaching the maximum combat radius of 1,500 kilometers for the Zero fighter.

The three Zero fighters formed a triangular formation and flew quickly towards the Bohai Bay at an altitude of several thousand meters.

Looking down from the side of the plane, the scenery on the earth has become extremely small, and as for the people, not a single one can be seen.

…………………… Liaoyang City, formerly known as the garrison headquarters of the army, Wang Yizhe set up his former enemy headquarters here.

"Colleagues, the commander-in-chief has called me to appoint me as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy who attacked the Liaodong Peninsula this time, I think everyone should have received it, right?" Wang Yizhe sat at the head and asked calmly.

"Brother Ding Fang, we have received the commander's message, so you can quickly give us a combat mission." Huang Xian, commander of the 1st Reading Division, said.

"Yes, it's all received, old sir, you can give the order." Li Zhenyuan also nodded.

As his old partner, Zhao Zhenfan didn't say anything, quietly waiting for Wang Yizhe to order.

Wang Yizhe nodded with satisfaction and took the lead in getting up, and Huang Xiansheng, Zhao Zhenfan, Li Zhenyuan and others also got up.

The group followed Wang Yizhe out of his seat and came to the battle map hanging on the north wall of the conference room.

Taking over a wooden command pole from the hands of an adjutant, Wang Yizhe stepped forward and pointed to Jinzhou, Yingkou, Fengcheng and Dandong: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to the information we have, there are still about 1230,000 people left in the Kwantung Army, and in terms of total strength, we have an absolute advantage, and we also have an absolute advantage in the air force, artillery, and tank armored forces.

Therefore, the time is ripe for attacking the Liaodong Peninsula, and in this battle, we should give full play to our advantages, concentrate our forces to attack Yingkou first, and after breaking through from Yingkou, go straight to Dalian, first seize Dalian, and then turn back to recover Jinzhou and Dandong. ”

"Brother Ding Fang is right, my 1st Division is willing to take the lead, and I will definitely take Yingkou." Huang Xiansheng nodded and asked.

"No problem, the task of the main attack will be handed over to you, Brother Alarm Bell, in addition, Li Zhenyuan's armored army will also be allocated to you to help you attack." Wang Yizhe readily agreed.

"Please rest assured, the commander-in-chief, my 1st Division will definitely live up to expectations!" Niu Erzhu, the deputy division commander and commander of the first regiment, looked a little excited, and stepped forward and saluted.

Wang Yizhe nodded, and then continued: "The task of the main attack is handed over to the 1st Division of Reading and the Group Army, and now I will deploy the combat tasks of the other divisions."

The 9th Division of Reading at the beginning of Gao Chu was responsible for moving towards Fengcheng and Dandong and feints to contain and disperse the Eastern Front Army.

Liu Jianguo's 3rd Reading Division immediately moved out of Jinzhou to make a feint to attract the enemy's attention, and the 4th and 2nd Reading Divisions served as reserves.

It is also to accumulate strength for the general attack on Dalian! ”

"Yes!" Liu Jianguo, Gao Chu and others stepped forward at the same time, and immediately took orders to leave.

After a day of preparation, the five reading divisions of the Northeast New Army on the front line, as well as the four heavy artillery brigades, were ready.

Each entered their respective positions.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

At this moment, it was already the second wave of attendance, and Zhang Xinghua had just flown over the sea more than 200 nautical miles away from Dalian when he discovered the abnormality.

"Head, it seems to be a ship underneath!" A wingman reported to Zhang Xinghua.

"I've seen it, drop altitude with me, be vigilant, scout carefully!" Zhang Xinghua flew the fighter plane and began to dive down with two wingmen.

The Zero's dive ability was quite good, and in less than two minutes, they descended at an altitude of no less than a kilometer.

Through the adjustment of the angle and line of sight, Zhang Xinghua and his two comrades-in-arms clearly saw the fleet on the sea.

"Head, it's the devil's fleet, not to mention dozens of various ships, it seems that there are aircraft carriers!" A wingman on board the pilot was excited.

"Send a telegram to the division right away, and ask for immediate support!" Zhang Xinghua said calmly.

…………………… Jilin Airport.

"Lao Liu, Xinghua reported that the Yue military fleet was found more than 200 nautical miles away in Bohai Bay, and it was very large, with at least dozens of ships of various kinds, and possibly aircraft carriers." As soon as Liu Cui saw Gao Zhihang, he shouted excitedly.

"Really? Then strike right away! Gao Zhihang was also excited when he heard this, and immediately said.

"Yes!" After Liu Cuigang saluted, he and Gao Zhihang went straight to their landline.

The next moment, one after another Zero fighters and HE111 bombers roared into the air.

This time, seventy Zero fighters and eighty HE111s all poured out.

At the same time, on the Tongliao battlefield, the Stuka dive bomber and the BF109 fighter group, which are short-range bombers, also took off.

However, their combat mission was Yingkou, Jinzhou and other places to assist their ground troops in breaking through the defense line of the Japanese army.

The first to arrive on the battlefield was a mixed group of BF109s and Stukka.

At this moment, the ground artillery group of the main attacking force of the Yingkou defense line had already begun to launch an artillery bombardment on the outlying positions of the Yue army at Yingkou.

Because the new army in the northeast was chasing closely and coming quickly, the army did not have enough time to build fortifications.

The powerful artillery fire composed of the four heavy artillery brigades of the Northeast New Army and the artillery regiments directly under the 1st, 2nd, and 4th divisions of the Reading Force easily turned the defensive position of the Yue Army at Yingkou into a sea of fire.

"Boom...... Rumble...... Boom ......" The deafening explosions were heard one after another, and the Yue Jun squatting in the trenches could clearly feel that the ground under his feet was trembling.

This feeling was even stronger as the bomber group of the Northeast New Army arrived.

In less than an hour of bombardment, the two wings of the army on the periphery of Yingkou suffered a quarter of casualties, and all the front-line fortifications were completely destroyed.

Immediately, the 1st Division, with the cooperation of armored tank units, launched the first tentative attack on the Yue Army.

In the trenches of the sortie position, Deputy Division Commander Niu Erzhu and Division Commander Huang Xiansheng were both holding binoculars to watch their attacking troops.

This time, they dispatched a company of infantry, supplemented by four No. 4 tanks, to make a tentative attack on the frontal position of the army.

Everywhere the telescope reached, there was thick gunpowder smoke everywhere on the positions of the troops, and it was impossible to see the situation on the positions of the troops at all.

The only thing I could see was the fire that was still burning.

More than 100 infantrymen, led by four tanks, were rapidly approaching the position.

When they entered the range of more than 200 meters, the originally silent position of the army suddenly burst into gunfire.

Hundreds of rifles and a dozen light and heavy machine guns formed a dense network of fire.

More than 100 infantry of the Northeast New Army were very experienced, and all of them went to the back of the four No. 4 tanks, and continued to advance with the help of the cover of the tanks.

In general, in this case, as long as luck is not too back, they will not be in much danger with tank cover.

A series of crisp "bang, bang, bang......" sounded one after another, and the dense bullets hit the frontal armor of the four No. 4 tanks and burst out a series of sparks, which was particularly dazzling.

"Kill Quack!" On the devil's position, seeing that the Chinese tanks were approaching more and more, an officer immediately hurriedly waved his command knife and called on his subordinates to open fire fiercely.

"Boom, boom, boom......" The four No. 4 tanks finally opened fire, and at such a close distance, their hit rate was extremely terrifying.

Four deafening explosions rang out, and three Devil machine guns stopped firing.

"Dada...... Eight vehicle-mounted machine guns also opened fire, and bullets quickly erupted from the muzzles, forming a dense crossfire.......

The bullet-hit devil couldn't lift his head at all, and a series of dust and smoke rose from the bare ground.

"Fire, fire!" The devil officer was anxious, and hurriedly waved his hand behind him and shouted, "The few 82 mortars that the army had hidden in the anti-artillery hole and were lucky not to be destroyed were quickly set up.

After a few rapid muffled sounds, ......a grenade landed accurately on the infantry crowd following the tank attack.

Suddenly, it caused a lot of casualties to the Northeast New Army.

The tank guns fired back one after another, but they were direct-aiming guns, while the army was a curved artillery, with a blind spot for shooting, and there was no way to help the other side.

In the trenches of the sortie position of the 1st Division, Huang Xiansheng put down his binoculars and said: "Order the tentative troops to retreat, and summon the artillery team to carry out a retaliatory artillery strike!" ”

"Withdrawn so soon?" Niu Erzhu was obviously a little unwilling: "Many of the devil's firepower points have not been exposed yet." ”

"You see, our tank direct-aim guns can't help those mortars, tanks are not afraid, but our infantry casualties will be multiplied because of this, you must know that every one of our soldiers is extremely precious.

At least it is much more precious than artillery shells and bullets, so it is impossible for us to let our subordinates make senseless sacrifices without the absolute superiority of artillery fire.

It's unfair to them, and it's incompetent to us commanders. Huang Xian said.

Niu Erzhu nodded as if he didn't understand, and immediately turned around and conveyed the order to stop the attack.

Soon, four tanks covered the withdrawal of the remaining seventy or eighty infantrymen.

Almost as soon as the gunfire of the devils stopped, a piercing whistling sound sounded from behind the position of the 1st Reading Division.

One shell after another, wrapped in dazzling flames, smashed down fiercely towards the Japanese army's position.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom ......" Because the shooting elements were marked, the shelling was very accurate, and all the shells fell into the position where the devil had fired just now.

In the violent explosion, the devil officer was directly blown to pieces, several mortars were also hit, and even the people and guns were blown to pieces.

Clusters of firelight rose into the air accompanied by thick smoke, and the flames carried the stumps and severed arms of some devil soldiers from time to time, as well as some weapon parts.

The shelling lasted more than twenty minutes, and the forward position of the little devils was plowed again and again before it began to extend.

This time, Huang Xiansheng and Niu Erzhu increased their offensive forces, directly sending a battalion of infantry and twelve No. 4 tanks.

When the 12 tanks advanced not far from the forward position of the Japanese army while firing their artillery, there were only a few sparse gunshots on the position of the Japanese army before the smoke of gunfire cleared.

The dense firepower just now disappeared completely, and the tank crews slowly advanced forward under the cover of the infantry without hurry.

When most of the new officers and men in the northeast were close to the front-line trenches of the Yue army, some light and heavy firepower roared from the rear positions of the Yue army.

However, judging from the density of their firepower, it is not difficult to judge that they should have suffered considerable losses in the shelling just now and in the previous bombardment.

Otherwise such machine-gun fire should be dense enough, cross-fire, forming a dense blockade fire is.

Such a lax fire blockade naturally could not stop the charge of hundreds of infantry of the Northeast New Army.

They roared like a tidal wave and charged with semi-automatic rifles, and the tanks crossed the trenches to cover possible fire.

The momentum of the attacking troops was very rapid, and under the cover of the tank troops, a company broke through the three trenches of the Japanese army.

At this time, the reinforcements of the Yue army began to counterattack, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

The offensive troops of the Northeast New Army relied on the strong defensive capabilities of 12 tanks and machine gun and artillery fire to desperately resist the counterattack of the Japanese army.

Huang Xiansheng duly sent another infantry battalion, and as this infantry battalion entered the battle, the Japanese army fought back violently and was defeated.

"Rush! Brothers, you have fought Yingkou and recovered Dalian! A lieutenant colonel battalion commander who led the charge held an MP18 submachine gun in each hand, and after the army's counterattack failed, he took the lead and shouted.

"Kill! Come on! Nearly 1,000 new soldiers in the Northeast shouted and killed one after another, and rushed forward with guns in hand.

The stopped tank also started again, and quickly rushed forward.

At the same time, about 100 nautical miles from Dalian, an air defense and air raid battle was underway.

Gao Zhihang, Liu Cuigang and others personally led a mixed fleet of 150 planes to arrive.

Immediately, a heavy air attack was launched on the naval fleet of the Japanese Army, which had rushed to support the Kwantung Army.

One after another fighters swooped down and strafed, the machine guns of the Zero fighters kept spitting dazzling tongues of fire, and countless devil sailors were killed on the deck before they could dodge.

The anti-aircraft weapons on the Devil ship reacted quite in a timely manner, firing fiercely and counterattacking, but the bullets almost chased the Zero fighters flying at high speed, which was quite spectacular in the air.

Eighty HE111 medium bombers began to drop bombs at high altitude, and at this time, Gao Zhihang and Liu Cui had already formulated a strategy.

Zero fighters dive to attack at low altitudes, and bombers bomb at high altitudes.

"I ...... the heavy bombs began to fall rapidly from the air in free fall.

Some of the bombs fell into the water, and suddenly there was a violent explosion, and the calm sea was suddenly set off by a monstrous wave, and the devil ship on the edge of the explosion shook, and the devil sailors on board were thrown to the ground one after another.
