North of the Yangtze River, northern Jiangsu, Huaiyin City.

There has been a battle here that has been going on for two days, and a large number of national troops are attacking a county town. The strength of the 697th, 698th, 701st, and 7024th regiments of the 17th Division of the Nationalist Army, thousands of people are engaged with about 1,000 Japanese troops and nearly 2,000 puppet troops.

More than a month ago, more than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops occupied Huaiyin City.

At the beginning, before the fall of Huaiyin City, it was generally believed that it was the most consolidated rear. However, the fall of Huaiyin City was very sudden, on the eve of the fall of Huaicheng, the Kuomintang county government first moved to Caodian, and then some landlords, wealthy merchants, magnates, gentry and "public prostitutes" also came to Caodian like a shadow, and Caodian Town suddenly became lively.

The residents of the city were even more panicked and fled the city. On August 11, some of the refugees who left in a hurry did not even bring out a quilt, but only held the nursing baby, helped the old and the young, and called the children and daughters. Some lost their relatives during the flight; There are also old and sick people who are trapped in the city, and their lives are uncertain......

The 117th Division of the National Army stationed in Huaiyin City also retreated in a hurry, and Huaiyin City fell immediately.

After more than a month of rest, the 117th Division began to counterattack Huaiyin City, preparing to recover the county seat.

This is a county town with a city wall, the county town has a thick city wall on all sides, the periphery of the city wall, the Japanese puppet army also built a large number of fortifications outside the city, a large number of machine guns were erected on the city wall, and the Japanese puppet army in the fortifications outside the city wall together, firmly blocked the attacking national soldiers.

The south of the county seat.

It is about a thousand meters from the city wall, on a small hill. In front of a temporary headquarters, there were several officers of the national army, who were standing on the top of a hill. Holding a telescope and looking at the battle ahead.

Seeing that the attacking soldiers were completely suppressed by the machine guns of the little devils, there was no heavy artillery to attack the city on their side, and the only few small mountain guns were limited in power, and the soldiers suffered many casualties. The faces of these officers of the 117th Division were not good-looking.

"Shizuo, let's retreat and abandon this county seat." A colonel of the national army put down the binoculars and said helplessly.

"Who dares to say give up again. Don't blame Lao Tzu for his face. "This 17th Division, Commander Zheng, is obviously determined to take this county seat.

After the fall of northern Jiangsu, some national troops surrendered and became puppet troops, and some national army troops nested in some remote small county towns. Or in a small town, a month ago, this national army unit had been stationed in this county town.

The little devil took advantage of the fact that the main force of the national army was not in the county seat, and the puppet army launched a surprise attack for thousands of days. More than 1,000 soldiers of the national army in the city. The officers and soldiers, including the division headquarters, could only retreat and lose the county seat.

After resting for more than a month, Commander Zheng of the 117th Division obviously couldn't swallow this evil breath, and led the whole division to take the initiative to attack this county seat, on the one hand, he wanted to recover this county seat, and on the other hand, he wanted to avenge the hundreds of soldiers who died more than a month ago.

More than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops defended the city, with a large number of fortifications and strong city walls. Firmly blocked the attacking thousands of national soldiers, although the attacking national soldiers had an absolute advantage in numbers.

Division Commander Zheng of this national army unit held a telescope and looked at the soldiers in front of him, and his achievements were not smooth. The face is also relatively solemn, the battle has been going on for so long, and it has completely become a war of attrition.

If you want to take this county seat, unless you exhaust the ammunition of the Japanese puppet army defending the city, consume all their personnel, kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself, and today's situation of not having an advantage, I am afraid that killing 1,000 enemies will cost more than 1,000.

Even if he can eliminate these more than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops, Division Commander Zheng knows that his troops will definitely suffer heavy losses and suffer great losses.

Not long after, a major of the national army covered in blood hurriedly ran over, and shouted loudly and sadly: "Division, the little devil has come over with a large number of reinforcements, at least a wing, carrying 100 mm heavy artillery, as well as tanks, the 702nd Regiment in charge of sniping has already exchanged fire with this group of little devils, in just one hour, the 702nd Regiment has lost more than half, and it is completely unbearable, the 702nd Regiment is retreating to this side, and this little devil reinforcement is less than ten kilometers away from us." ”

Hearing the major's report, Division Commander Zheng punched a big tree next to him, his heart was full of unwillingness, fighting with these Japanese puppet troops defending the city for so long, the soldiers had already suffered more than a thousand casualties, so give up, unwilling!

Did so many warriors die in vain? Master Zheng looked at the city wall in the distance, and his eyes almost breathed fire.

On the walls in the distance.

The supreme commander of the little devils guarding the city, a devil Nakazo held his head high, this is the Japanese commander of Huai'an City, Kitagawa Kazuyoshi, with several little devil officers on the city wall, Kitagawa Kazuyoshi stood on the city wall, carrying a command knife and snow-white gloves, looking at the soldiers of the national army attacking in the distance.

"Your Excellency Commander, our reinforcements are coming soon, and this Chinese army outside is dead." A devil lieutenant had a smile on his face.

This time it was a reinforced wing, carrying heavy artillery and a few tanks. Kitagawa Kazuyoshi obviously knew that his reinforcements were coming soon, and stood on the city wall to show off his might.

Kitagawa Kazuyoshi saw that hundreds of meters in front of him, an attacking Chinese army, at least hundreds of people retreated again, and couldn't help but laugh.

It was the soldiers of a battalion who attacked just now, led by a major battalion commander, who attacked to break through the little devil's defense line and approach the city wall, but they were still hit by the little devil's machine gun and had to retreat.

The battalion commander of the national army saw that he had killed nearly 100 brothers, and he couldn't help but lie on the ground, looking at the fortifications of the little devil in front of him, and watching several machine guns shoot fiercely at his side, the soldiers could barely raise their heads, and everyone was lying on the ground.

On the top of a hill.

Seeing that his attack again still failed, and dozens of soldiers had died, Division Commander Zheng's face was very ugly, and he shook his head secretly, preparing to give the order to retreat.

At this moment, Senior Commander Zheng faintly heard a roar in the sky, and immediately looked up at the sky in the distance, where a large group of planes was lowering its altitude and flying towards it on the other.

Little Japan's planes are also coming!

Seeing this group of aircraft, Master Zheng's face changed again. The house leak was rained overnight, the ship was late and the head wind was blowing, and a large number of reinforcements from small Japan were about to come again, and at this critical moment, small Japanese planes also came, and it was still a huge group, at least dozens of them.

Several officers of the national army next to Division Commander Zheng saw so many planes coming, and several of them were like ashes, and secretly said in their hearts, it's over, it's over, and they can't be withdrawn.

on the city walls.

The devil Nakasa Kitagawa Kazuyoshi, and many devil officers also saw this group of planes flying towards this side, and saw so many planes coming, these devil officers were ecstatic, but they didn't expect that their own air force also came to reinforce themselves.

"Your Excellency Commander, look, that's the Empire's planes, the Empire's fleet!"

The devil Nakasa Kitagawa Kazuyoshi was also happy on his face, so many aircraft reinforcements came over, plus a whole wing that came over soon, and the Chinese army attacking him outside the city was all finished in Kitagawa Kazuyoshi's opinion.

However, Kitagawa Yiyi had a little doubt in his heart, he was not notified that there would be a plane coming to reinforce him, but Kitagawa Yiyi did not show this doubt on his face.

On the top of a hill.

Including Division Commander Zheng, everyone's face has changed greatly, so many Japanese planes are coming, their own troops are completely dangerous, for the little Japanese planes, everyone has a natural fear in their hearts, every time there is a big war, the little Japanese planes are showing off their might, and pee on the top of everyone's heads.

A lieutenant colonel of the national army was full of unwillingness, holding a telescope, and looked fiercely at the group of planes flying straight over, eager to knock down a few of these planes. However, the face of this lieutenant colonel of the national army immediately changed greatly, just now his face was still ugly, his face was full of unwillingness, and at this time, his face was already ecstatic.

"Division, that's our own plane, our plane is coming, !!"
