Chapter 36: Airport Battles (4)

......Several piercing and sharp cannonballs whistled in vain, and the few shells wrapped in scarlet fire in the dark night dragged the scarlet tail flame of two or three meters long through the night sky and smashed down towards the east bank of the South Canal.

As the shells landed on the ground, a violent explosion sounded, and for a time the fire on the opposite bank appeared, as bright as day, and in the light ......of the fire, many soldiers of the Chinese army rushed away, and the shelling that had been being carried out on the west bank just now suddenly stopped.

"The little devil is such a poor beater, this is not the same as the two cannons to blow him up." On the position of the first battalion, the battalion commander Gao Chu looked at the east bank that had been suppressed by his own artillery fire, and couldn't help but sarcastically.

………………

Fifteen minutes ago, two kilometers downstream from the airport on the east bank of the South Canal, the main force led by Seishiro Itagaki was quietly crossing the river.

"Huh!" With a sharp whistling, a red flare suddenly rose into the air quickly, followed by two gunshots, and two devil soldiers on a small wooden boat fell in response.

In a bush on the opposite bank, a sentry of the Northeast Army said to his companion next to him while pulling the bolt: "Li Shenming, I will go back and report to the head immediately with you here, and say that the little devil is forcibly crossing in the direction of Niujiatun, go quickly." ”

"Squad leader, the signal flare has been issued, the other brothers should all see it, the top will definitely send reinforcements, I won't leave, I'll fight the little devils here with you." A sentinel named Li Shenming said.

"Fart, although the signal flare has been sent, but I don't know what the situation is, when they find out the situation, the little devil has already succeeded in forcibly crossing, you hurry back and report to the camp, go quickly!" The sentry squad leader said as he pushed his companion and scolded.

Li Shenming gritted his teeth and said, "Then squad leader, be careful yourself." After saying that, he quickly rushed towards the direction of the airport, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

The signal flare was rising into the air, and a battalion of sentries and scouts within a kilometer of the vicinity rushed towards the sentry squad leader, and when they rushed to the ground, the soldiers were about to rush ashore.

In the dark night, the army did not know how many Northeast troops there were on the other side, so they had to fire back aimlessly and frantically.

…………………………

"Camp!" When Li Shenming ran back to the first battalion defense area out of breath, he happened to run into Gao Jun, who had just returned to the battalion headquarters from the position, and shouted urgently before he could stand up and salute: "Camp, it's not good, the army suddenly appeared in Niujiatun, and now it is forcibly crossing, our squad leader and other brothers are desperately blocking the attack, the situation is extremely urgent, the battalion should send reinforcements as soon as possible." ”

"What? Niujiatun? Gao Chu was taken aback when he heard this, turned his head to look at the other side that had calmed down, and suddenly realized that he suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Oh no, the little devil who said the dog is a feint, and Niujiatun is the main attack." ”

After speaking, Gao Chu immediately turned his head and shouted: "The guard platoon and a company immediately gather with me to quickly reinforce Niujiatun, and then ask the regiment to send reinforcements." ”

"Yes!" The guard platoon commander who followed behind Gao Chu, and several officers of the first company answered at the same time.

……………………………………

When Gao Chu hurried to Niujiatun with a company of guards and infantry, all his sentries had been sacrificed, and about 100 soldiers had already landed on the west bank.

Both sides found each other, and the enemies were very red when they met, and more than 100 soldiers took the lead in rushing up with the 38 big cover with bayonets under the leadership of a devil Shaozuo.

"Fire!" Gao Chu first ordered the troops to open fire, and then drew an iron broadsword and shouted: "Bayonet!" ”

Nearly two hundred soldiers of the first battalion quickly loaded their bayonets.

"Fuck it!" Gao Chu waved the broadsword in his hand forward and took the lead to rush forward, and nearly two hundred soldiers also roared angrily and rushed towards the Yue army.

The two sides collided fiercely like two torrents of steel, and the sound of gold and iron clashing, angry scolding, and the sound of broken bones and sharp blades intertwined into a song of death.

Gao Chu slashed a head-on ghost soldier to the ground with a knife, and shouted angrily: "Brothers, throw these Oriental miscellaneous pieces down the river for me to feed the turtles, the reinforcements will arrive soon, kill!" ”

On the east bank, seeing this, Seishiro Itagaki immediately hurriedly ordered the troops: "Immediately cross the river and land at full speed, and be sure to annihilate the defenders on the west bank before the arrival of reinforcements from the Shina army, quickly!" ”

"Hay!" A military officer suddenly lowered his head, and immediately pulled out his command knife and jumped onto a small sampan: "Kill Gaga!" "The first soldier rushed to the opposite shore.

………………………………

When Zhang Xinghan commanded the city defense army to fight fiercely with the Yue army at the Dongta Airport and the main battlefield at the South Gate, a conspiracy against Zhang Xinghan was going on in Shenyang.

In a conference room on the third floor of the mayor's office building in the heart of Shenyang, about six or seven middle-aged men in suits gathered.

"Mayor, since the young marshal has an order, then we will carry it out according to the order." A middle-aged man sitting at the head of Mayor Zang Shiyi, whose name is Jin Yufu, is the secretary general of Zang Shiyi, the current governor of Liaoning Province, and also serves as the secretary general of the mayor of Shenyang.

It is Zang Shiyi's right and left hand, and he is also the henchman of the Zhang Group.

"However, now that the military power in Shenyang City is in the hands of Zhang Xinghan, I'm afraid it's not so easy for us to arrest him, right?" Zang Shiyi said with some hesitation.

"This is not difficult, can the Tibetan governor remember the guard battalion left behind in the Young Marshal's Mansion?" Jin Yuhuang said.

"Of course, I remember that after Zhang Xinghan killed Rong Ziheng for the crime of escaping from the battle, he scattered the guard battalion and incorporated it into the Second Regiment of the City Defense Army, and the commander of that regiment was the company commander of Zhang Xinghan's original 3rd Battalion, and he was his confidant." Zang Shiyi disagreed.

"Although the Guards Battalion was broken up by Zhang Xinghan and incorporated into the Second Regiment, as far as I know, the former deputy commander of the Guards Battalion has now become an operational staff officer of the Zhang Xinghan City Defense Command, and we can find a way to contact this person and achieve our goals through him." Jin Yuhuang said.

"I'm afraid that's not right, right? If the deputy battalion commander of the guard battalion was loyal to Rong Ziheng, he would not stand by when Zhang Xinghan wanted to kill Rong Ziheng. Zang Shiyi said.

"Governor, you don't know, maybe he can't talk about being loyal to Rong Ziheng, after all, the guard battalion was somewhat involuntary in that situation. But as a member of the guard battalion, his loyalty to the young marshal is beyond doubt, if he learns that it is the young marshal's order, I think he will probably not refuse, not to mention that now he has been set aside by Zhang Xinghan, and he has seized military power in disguise, and it is impossible not to have a trace of resentment in his heart. Jin Yuhuang analyzed.

"Okay, let's try it as you say, but be careful, don't startle the snake." Zang Shiyi sighed and said, originally speaking, in order to defend Shenyang City, Zhang Xinghan is now leading the whole army to fight a bloody battle with Yue Kou, and Zang Shiyi does not want to carry out Zhang Xueliang's order.

But as the governor of Liaoning Province and the mayor of Shenyang City, he can't disobey Zhang Xiaoliu, because Zhang Xiaoliu and his son Zhang Zuolin have the grace of knowing him, and he can't be ungrateful.
