Chapter 326: The Devil Secretly Retreats
The power of aerial bombs is truly staggering. After the bombers arrived, it was only a few rounds of bombing, and the devil's airfield was reduced to rubble. Those who guarded the airport, and the ground staff who guarded the airport, were killed and wounded, and there was hardly a single intact person.
"Each machine reports the situation."
Seeing that the airport of the devils below had become a sea of fire, the commander of the Second Air Division began to inquire about the situation of each aircraft.
"Report, there is still a third of the fighter's ammunition."
"Report, the bomber can also do a round of bombing."
"What about each oil?" The division commander continued to ask.
"Report, and half more."
"Okay, pay attention to the planes, protect the bombers, let's go around the Jinan devil position."
Now that it's out, it's a waste to bring the ammunition back. In addition, their fuel is quite sufficient, so the commander of the Second Air Division decided to raid the outer positions of the devil in Jinan, bombard the little devil, and create some tense air.
Buzz Buzz......
"Baga, enemy attack, quickly hide."
Airplanes...... Rumble...... Airplanes...... Rumble......
As soon as the Second Air Division arrived at the position outside the city of Jinan, the devil immediately discovered that it was not his own plane and immediately ordered everyone to avoid the air attack.
But as soon as his order was given, the bomber group began to dive, leaving all the last aerial bombs on the devil's position.
Yes...... Yes......
The aerial bomb exploded above the devil's position, which was even more powerful than a 100mm heavy gun, and the explosion of a bomb was a huge crater within a radius of more than ten meters, and everything around it was destroyed. Those devils in front of the explosion point were directly torn apart, and those who were a little farther away were directly shocked out, and all their internal organs were shattered and died.
"Baga, hide quickly, quickly."
Seeing that the position had turned into a sea of fire in an instant, the commanders of the devils began to shout loudly, asking the soldiers to quickly dodge.
"Hahaha, return."
The fighters did not participate in the attack, and they had to keep some of their ammunition for bomber escort to prevent the bomber group from being raided at the airfield near the devil.
And the devils on the Jinan position waited for a long time after they dodged well, but there was no second round of aerial bombs coming down. After more than ten minutes, they began to carefully stick their heads out to check, and found that there was not even a shadow of an airplane in the sky.
"Yaga, Yaga."
It was clear that the enemy was gone, leaving them with only bombed, disfigured positions, and countless corpses and wounded.
"It was reported that the Shandong airport was attacked and completely destroyed. The positions on the outskirts of Jinan were attacked by air raids and suffered heavy losses. The news soon spread to the place where Nishio Shouzo was located in Nanjing.
"Yaga, Yaga."
Nishio Shouzo originally wanted to continue to transfer troops from Shandong, but now that the Shandong airport has been destroyed and Jinan has been attacked by air raids, there is little hope for the transfer of troops.
"Report, the 2nd Air Division reported that it had successfully blown up the Devil's Shandong Airport and carried out an air raid on the defenders of Jinan." The communications corps took the telegram of the 2nd Air Force Division and reported to Chen Jinghui.
"Okay, hahaha, it's fried. Immediately order the Air Force, rest for two hours, and then reinforce the front lines of the armies. Also, inform the Eighth Army of this news. ”
Hearing that Shandong Airport was resolved, Chen Jinghui was very happy. In this way, the devil airfields in several provinces he mainly attacked have been solved, which means that his biggest hidden danger has been eliminated.
After Mr. Peng of the Eighth Group Army received the notice from Chen Jinghui, he was also overjoyed. He didn't expect Chen Jinghui's air force to be so advantageous, and in just a few disappearances, the Shandong Devil Airport was wiped out.
"Hahaha, order the troops to continue the siege."
Without the threat of airplanes, Mr. Peng felt much more comfortable. He didn't estimate anymore and began to let the troops launch a fierce attack on Changzhi.
"Report, the devil's front line is very stubborn, and it is difficult for our troops to break through their defense line for a while."
At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Chief of Staff Chen came to Chen Jinghui and briefed him on the battle situation at the front.
"I know, the devil is the end of the captivity, don't worry too much. The more stubborn they are now resisting, the more empty the moon is behind them. ”
Chen Jinghui said to Chief of Staff Chen while gesturing on the map.
"What the commander said makes sense, maybe the devil is making a final struggle."
Chen Yi is also a battle-hardened person, and the devil's current actions are nothing more than two reasons. One is that they have no effective defense in the rear, so they can only desperately hold the current line of defense. The second is that the devils are likely to have reinforcements, and they are waiting for reinforcements. As things stand, there is little hope for the second scenario.
"Lao Chen, order the troops attacking Nanjing, stop the attack after killing and occupying the outer positions of Nanjing, as long as Nanjing is surrounded." Chen Jinghui suddenly stood up and said.
"Why?" Chen Yi asked suspiciously.
"Nanjing has suffered too much, and then it is the capital of GMD, let's fight it, do we want to return it to Commander Jiang, let's surround it first!" Chen Jinghui said.
"Hmm??? There is some truth in what the commander said, and I will arrange it immediately. ”
After listening to Chen Jinghui's explanation, Staff Officer Chen felt that there was some truth and immediately went out to make arrangements.
"Report, Your Excellency Commander, the positions on the outskirts of Nanjing are about to be lost, let's withdraw from Nanjing!"
At the same time, the devil also knew that Nanjing might not be able to be saved. The chief of staff immediately advised Nishio Shouzo to evacuate Nanjing and go to Shanghai to command.
"Baga, it's only been a day, and I can't hold it, what are those two divisions doing to eat."
Nishio Shouzo was very angry when he heard the news, and the two integrated divisions were defending outside the city, and they said that they were going to lose in less than a day.
"Your Excellency, the enemy's fire is too heavy, and there is air support. And our air force has been completely wiped out, and it is really impossible to support it for three days. The chief of staff said.
"Baga, I can't evacuate Nanjing, and I ordered them to give me three days to hold on, otherwise I will all apologize to the emperor for my seppuku." Nishio Shouzo shouted loudly.
"Hai, but Your Excellency Commander, we don't have enough troops now, and the defensive area is too large, so we will definitely not be able to hold it for three days if we continue like this." said the chief of staff.
"Yo Xi, I also know that the forces are too scattered, and it is difficult to block the enemy's attack." Nishio Shouzo also agreed with the Chief of Staff.
"Your Excellency, I suggest that we shrink our forces and carry out targeted defense. In that case, maybe we still have a chance. The chief of staff suggested.
"Yo Xi, what you say makes sense. Ordered Zhejiang's troops to secretly retreat at night and defend Hangzhou with all their might. Ordered Jiangsu's troops to immediately move closer to Nanjing and defend Nanjing with all their might. We use Nanjing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou to form an iron triangle and have the right to block the enemy's attack. Call Beiping and ask them to transfer Qingdao's forces to Xuzhou to prevent the enemy from advancing north. ”
Nishio Shouzo is also a bit capable, and wants to use Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Shanghai, the iron triangle of the Yangtze River Basin, to form a stable position, defend against the attack of the Flying Fox, and wait for reinforcements from the base camp.
The first day of fighting ended quickly, and night began to fall slowly. The Flying Fox ground offensive force began to stop the offensive, as did Shanxi and Fujian.
"Everyone, I received an order in the afternoon, ordering us to retreat to defend Hangzhou, everyone go back and prepare, and start to retreat quietly at 12 o'clock at night." The devil who blocked Shangrao said.
"Everyone, order the troops to start quietly packing up and evacuating in the direction of Nanjing after dinner." The commanders of the defenders in Jiangsu commanded.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was late at night. The entire Flying Fox attacking force was silent, and no noise could be heard.
"Hoarse, hoarse"
And in the devil barracks, which is a kilometer away from them, it will be lively. The commanders of the devils began to order the troops to begin an orderly retreat, and not to make a sound, and even this one was not allowed to turn on the lights.
Whew......
Gradually, the devils began to collect their camps, quietly evacuated the battlefield, and quietly evacuated to their respective targets. They start out with very slight movements, walk very carefully, and barely make any loud noises. After retreating a certain distance, they began to pick up speed, and the branches on the side of the road were scraped by them.
"Hoarse, hoarse."
It's been a few hours, and the devil commander has begun to urge loudly. In order to get to the bottom of the location, they had to race against the clock. Otherwise, if you are caught up by the enemy, it will be a big trouble.
Twitter, Twitter
And just like that, the night passed quietly. Before the sun rises, the early birds have begun to fly up the branches and begin to sing songs while looking for insects to eat.
"Hmm??? Why is it so quiet on the other side. ”
After the commanders of several armies got up, they picked up binoculars and came to the positions and began to observe the positions of the devils. But something strange happened, there was no movement on the other side, and the whole position was very quiet. They immediately sensed that something was wrong, and immediately called the person in charge of the night.
"What happened to the devil last night?"
"Report, nothing out of the ordinary."
"Huh? Send someone to dismantle it immediately, quickly. ”
"Huhu...... According to the report, all the devils have run away, and there is not even a single figure on the battlefield. ”
Half an hour later, the scout, who had gone to reconnoitre, came back out of breath and uttered something that shocked the audience.
"What? All gone. Why, order the troops to chase me. Inform the commander of this news. The commander said.
"Report, report from all over the country, the devil withdrew overnight."
As soon as Chen Jinghui got up, and before his face was washed, Chief of Staff Chen hurriedly ran over with reports from all over the country.
"What? All withdrawn. ”
Chen Jinghui was surprised, but he didn't expect the devil to retreat suddenly. After picking up the telegram and looking at it a few times, he immediately threw the towel and ran towards the headquarters as fast as he could.
