As expected by Ho Zhengdao, the first to arrive at Baotou City after dawn was not infantry or cavalry, but the aviation of the little devils. Several fighters, which soon appeared over Baotou.

For the appearance of these fighters, He Zhengdao also arranged a machine gun fire network at the commanding heights of Baotou City. As long as the height of the little devil's plane is close to the range of the machine-gun fire net, He Zhengdao will knock it.

It's just that He Zhengdao thinks that let these little devils' aviation understand that they should not bomb Baotou at will, otherwise the consequences will be very serious. Perhaps it would be better for the independent column that captured Baotou City, as well as the people who lived in it.

Looking at the several hovering reconnaissance planes, He Zhengdao quickly said: "Li Xiangdong, drive all those little devil expatriates to the central square. I'd like to see if the little devil's plane dares to mess around. ”

'Yes, Commander! ’

Although the slogan 'war makes civilians leave' was popular in these years, in fact, the little devils invaded China and killed so many unarmed civilians in their hands. Sometimes, He Zhengdao also wants to surprise these little devil diaspora.

But he knew that such a killing would be an insult to the name of the Eighth Route Army. can use these expatriates to make the little devil's pilots jealous, He Zhengdao thinks it is still feasible. As for the expatriates who have blood debts, He Zhengdao will not let them go easily.

Just when the little devil's plane continued to reconnoiter Baotou, he found that the originally lively Baotou City seemed to have become deserted. Even on the city wall of Baotou, there were no troops stationed.

Although these pilots knew that the people and troops in the city should be hiding. As long as they drop a few bombs. I must know how many Eighth Route Army troops are stationed in Baotou City now.

Just as the little devil was about to make a move, a team that seemed very dazzling suddenly appeared in the sight of the little devil's pilot. Looking at the procession that was escorted to the square, the little devil quickly knew who those people were.

The pilot who led the team immediately said: "Stop the bombing!" Keep scouting, those who should be our diaspora! Yaga. It's despicable that these cowards of the Chinese army are working to use our expatriates as hostages! ”

Despite the swearing, the trick seems to work. As the expatriates were driven to the square, the scouts in charge of escorting them, also did not shoot or do anything, quietly watching the planes hovering overhead.

Not long after, these little devil planes, which seemed to be bogeys, quickly left the sight of He Zhengdao and others. Reconnaissance squads distributed throughout Baotou. He also quickly summarized the situation of these aircraft to He Zhengdao.

Except for the reconnaissance planes that continued to carry out reconnaissance near Baotou, the rest of the fighters and bombers soon flew towards Guisui. At this time, the 26th Division of Guisui also sent reinforcements to Baotou again.

Last night's attack on the railroad made the division commander Shigetoku Kuroda very angry. But what made him even more angry was the heavy losses of the infantry brigades sent. The railway to Baotou could not be restored in a short period of time.

This also means that you want to get rid of the siege of Baotou. They will take at least two to three days. If all cavalry and automobiles were used to deliver troops, it would also take at least a day.

At this time, looking at the planes that appeared in the sky, Kuroda Shigetoku was also curious, how did these planes flying from North China return so quickly? It's hard to do it. Have they finished bombing or not?

Not long after, a fighter plane quickly landed at the makeshift airfield in Guisui. The gendarmerie, who were waiting, quickly took the pilot to Guisui City to report what they had seen earlier.

'Suzuki Shaosa, have you finished the bombing?' ’

'Your Excellency, General. I'm so sorry! Our flying team failed to bomb Baotou as planned. According to what we have previously reconnoitred, the Chinese army occupying Baotou seems to have expected us to pass over a long time ago.

Just as we were preparing to carry out the bombing, the Chinese army was very despicable and took all our expatriates in Baotou to an open area. In doing so, they seem to be deliberately threatening us.

Considering the uncertainty of the situation and the fact that there were so many expatriates in the hands of the Chinese army, I finally canceled the bombing mission. However, when I returned, I had ordered a reconnaissance plane to carry out reconnaissance of the enemy situation around Baotou.

In the case that our army failed to recapture Baotou, I was afraid that it would not be possible to bomb it. I believe that His Excellency the General should know that the safety of expatriates who do business in Baotou City is also very important to those who are engaged in other professions. ’

As soon as these words came out, Kuroda Shigetoku also said with an angry expression: "Baga Yalu, this group of Zhina army is too despicable. However, in your previous reconnaissance, did you see how many troops the other side deployed in the city? ”

Faced with such an inquiry, Shao Zuo said embarrassedly: "Your Excellency, General, I'm very sorry! I'm just afraid I can't provide too much favorable information about this matter. Because, today's Baotou City seems very quiet.

We had previously carried out many reconnaissance flights over Baotou, but the final result was that the Chinese army that occupied Baotou was afraid that they were all hiding in the houses of Baotou. Even on the city walls, we didn't find a garrison.

Therefore, it is also not clear to us how many Chinese troops occupied Baotou. If the general wants to know, he still needs to wait for the pilot of the reconnaissance plane to return, and then he will personally report to His Excellency the general. ”

As pilots of the Japanese army, these people are also the pride of the sky. Even if Kuroda Shigetoki was the commander of the lieutenant general's division, he also did not dare to put up his division commander lieutenant general's frame too much in front of these pilots.

If it had been his subordinate who had said it, he would have slapped him twice. But now, for this young man's casual decision to cancel the bombing, Kuroda Shigetoku must also hold back even if he is angry.

If you really want to offend these army aviation, it will not be so easy for them to seek help from the aviation when their divisions and regiments fight in the future. It is precisely because of this that the pilots have a very high status in the Japanese army.

After reporting the situation, the Japanese soldier flew and quickly left. In view of this situation, Kuroda gritted his teeth and sent a cavalry wing and an infantry wing again to Baotou on foot.

At this time, Xiao Jinguang, who was far away in the rear of Yulin, stared at the sky in the distance from time to time, hoping to see the appearance of the plane as soon as possible. In order to disturb the population, the soldiers in charge of air defense were told not to shake the air defense sirens at will.

Until the air defense sentry noticed that a group of various planes appeared in the sky ahead, they were also very excited. If it had been the previous one, I am afraid that they would have sounded the air defense siren long ago to remind the people to quickly avoid air defense.

The roar of the huge plane also startled many people. Just when they were wondering why the air defense sirens did not sound, the planes began to land one after another.

Each plane landed smoothly, and Xiao Jinguang felt very happy. Because these planes are all independent columns in the future. These more than 30 planes are really too important for the Eighth Route Army.

Looking at the pilot who got off the plane, Xiao Jinguang would come forward cordially and say, "Hard work!" ”

After saying this, Xiao Jinguang said again: "Ground support troops, hurry up and pull these planes into the cave hangar." In order to ensure the safety of the aircraft, we must hide these aircraft as soon as possible. ”

At this time, the planes hovering in the sky also began to land one after another according to the order of takeoff. Although some pilots felt sweaty on their hands, they eventually landed the plane safely at the airport.

Until the last fighter plane landed, looking at Zheng Shaoyu who got off the plane, Xiao Jinguang also said happily: "Comrade Shaoyu, it's hard work." This time, you have really made a great contribution to our army! ”

'Commissar, we really don't dare to say this! In fact, we were just pilots. Last night's battle was actually the responsibility of the comrades of the reconnaissance brigade. When it comes to hard work, they should be the hardest! ’

After entering Yulin Airport, Zheng Shaoyu and others all knew that Xiao Jinguang, who was also a major general of the people, was also one of the few political commissars in the Eighth Route Army who was awarded the title of major general.

Perhaps he knew that the Red Army had a political commissar system before, and Lao Chiang only promised to evaluate the major general to the commander of the main division. As for these political commissars, he also seemed very unimpressed, and did not want to recognize the rank of major general of these political commissars.

Fortunately, during the negotiations, Zhou Enlai asked for more than 40 places of major generals, and some of them were assigned to political commissars in the name of their positions in the headquarters organs, and they were all awarded the rank of major general.

Compared with the evaluation of generals, Lao Jiang seemed very unhappy. In the matter of school officials, he seems to be very generous. The Red Army left it to its own hands to arrange the promotion of these officers and soldiers.

In Lao Jiang's opinion, if the military commander and political commissar of the Eighth Route Army can stir up trouble, then they will have a chance to take advantage of it. It's a pity that Mao Taizu and they won't be fooled at all, and they are still awarded titles according to their qualifications and military exploits.

Until all the planes were safely put into storage, Xiao Jinguang also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Send a report to the commander, just say that the Air Force Brigade has landed safely, and all the planes have been dragged into the cave hangar." I also asked the commander if he wanted to send a telegram to the headquarters to report the good news! ”

It didn't take long for He Zhengdao's reply telegram to arrive. Knowing that the Air Force had landed safely, He Zhengdao said: "You can call the Central Committee and the General Headquarters to explain the transfer of the Air Force." But don't make an announcement! ”

Even the current Japanese planes don't need a good place to land. He Zhengdao was at Yulin Airport, and he still had a lot of thought. Such an airport, He Zhengdao does not want to be bombed by little devils.

And this telegram was forwarded to the headquarters of the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army, and everyone seemed to be jubilant. With such an air force brigade, the strength of the Eighth Route Army is believed to be increased several times.

The commanders and fighters of the Eighth Route Army, who suffered a lot from the bombing of the Air Force in the early years, have been looking forward to the capture of these planes for a long time. It's a rare dream come true, and it's no wonder they're so happy.

After all, how much combat effectiveness the plane can exert on the battlefield, these Mr. Zhu and others, who know about this situation, still suppress this joy in their hearts. In a short period of time, this news can't be known to the little devil and the Central Army! (To be continued.) )
