Chapter 459 The plane has come, will the infantry be far away?

"Yuxin, why do you always have this smile on people, it makes people feel weird, and there is a knife hidden in the whole smile!" The chief Su beside him couldn't help but nag when he saw Xia Da's big smile on his seat.

"I don't need it for work, and you really don't support me at all!" After hearing her husband say this, Xia Da couldn't help but give her husband a big roll of his eyes.

Yes, here we go again. Su Tong shook his head helplessly, took his wife's little hand and walked to the vacant seat in front, Xia Yuxin looked at her husband who walked beside her with a helpless expression, and at the same time, her beautiful big eyes showed a trace of affection, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud, but also in her heart, she also had a deep killing intent for the woman who dared to reveal murder to her husband just now, and the person who dared to be unfavorable to her husband must not let him live in this world

Chongqing, the leader's official residence

The nights in July were very hot, so going out at night to cool off has become an indispensable habit for Chairman Chiang, and tonight is no exception. After dinner, Jiang Gongzi accompanied Chairman Jiang to the pavilion to enjoy the coolness. Looking at the big and round moon in the sky, Chairman Chiang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's 15 years again, and in more than a month, it will be time for us to fight hand-to-hand with the Ba'ath Party and the Social Workers' Party." ”

Jiang Gongzi couldn't help but interject: "Father, our Congress Party has controlled the Central Committee for many years, and the Baath Party and the Social Labor Party are just outsiders to us, why are we so afraid of them?" ”

"Hmph, you know what!" Chairman Jiang reprimanded him and then said: "A few days ago, when Chahar marched under the banner of the central government, it did not have the consent of the central government, but only sent a temporary notice, and they arrested Sheng Shicai, the chairman of the provincial government, and even sent only a notice, do you know what this means? This means that Su Tong is not even bothered to do superficial work now, he already regards himself as an equal figure with the central government, Niang Xipi, this bastard! ”

Jiang Gongzi didn't say anything at this time, just listened silently.

Chairman Jiang seemed a little excited, and at this moment, he didn't need to pretend to be his own son, and said everything in his heart.

"The Ba'ath Party is menacing, if our Congress Party loses the national election in September, what face do you think I will have to meet the former prime minister under Jiuquan!" Chairman Jiang couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"And what about the Social Workers' Party? They also asked for a piece of the pie! Jiang Gongzi couldn't help but ask.

"Hmph, the Social Workers' Party, they are just here to use the prestige of the Ba'ath Party to fake the prestige of the tiger, at best, they are just a soy sauce product, not enough to worry about." Chairman Chiang and the Social Workers Party have been fighting for more than ten years, and they know each other well, but at this time, when they mention the Social Workers' Party, they are not angry.

"Father, now that the Japanese army in Hebei has almost finished retreating, are we going to take the opportunity to send troops to accept the territory now?" Jiang Gongzi asked cautiously.

Chairman Jiang smiled bitterly, "Take over? Previously, Chahar had already made a statement to take Shijiazhuang into his arms, and their thoughts had been revealed, can we still send troops into Hebei now? ”

The father and son were relatively speechless at this time, thinking of the menacing Baath Party, their hearts were extremely heavy

Since the Japanese base camp issued the order to retreat, the North China troops in Hebei and Shanxi have begun to retreat one after another, but there is an old saying in China: it is easier to come in than to get out. Now whether it is the Central Army, Yan Xishan's Jin Sui Army or the troops of the Social Labor Party have launched a pursuit of the retreating Japanese army, everyone likes to do the work of beating water dogs, because the Japanese army retreated in a hurry, and did not react too much to some armed provocations, and finally developed to the point that even the bandits who only dared to hide in the ravine and pretend to be their grandson on weekdays dared to wrestle with the Japanese army, and countless anti-Japanese groups appeared all over Shanxi overnight, and there were gunshots everywhere, As a result, the North China Dispatch Army complained everywhere.

Because the armed anti-Japanese storm in various parts of North China came so violently that it seriously hindered the retreat of the Japanese army, Sugiyama Moto, who was furious, immediately ordered the commander of the Second Division, Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji, to lead the second, third, and fifth divisions, with a total of more than 80,000 people, to launch a huge sweep before the retreat in Shanxi. Only then did they suddenly realize that even if the Japanese were going to withdraw to the country, they were not up to them, and if they wanted to beat the Reservoir Dogs, they had to weigh their own strength, otherwise the Reservoir Dogs would not fight but would have put themselves into it.

Because the Japanese army's sweep came so suddenly, the people and horses who were chasing the Japanese army suddenly found that they had mentioned the iron plate, and they were beaten on their backs and turned over by surprise, especially the Jin Sui army led by Yan Xishan saw that they were about to be beaten by the Japanese to the second theater headquarters, if the Japanese army was retreating in a wave but was taken to their own headquarters, then the face of the Jin Sui army would be thrown into the toilet.

In a hurry, Yan Xishan called for reinforcements to the Chahar troops who were close at hand, Su Tong was happy after receiving the telegram, he was really sleepy and met a pillow, and he was worried that he had no chance to enter Shanxi, so he immediately ordered Wang Dayong's Fifth Division and the 103rd Division to immediately go to Shanxi to rescue Yan Xishan's troops who were being chased and beaten by Okamura Ningji.

In Wutai County, Shanxi, the retreating 129th Division and the 9th Brigade of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army suddenly encountered, and a major battle immediately broke out between the two sides.

Liu Yecheng, commander of the 129th Division, and Lu Gangzheng, political commissar, were commanding the troops to fight and retreat, but the Japanese troops behind were biting like wolves smelling blood, and the 386th Brigade, which served as the rearguard, also suffered heavy casualties.

"Report to the division commander, report to the 386th Brigade, the Japanese army is in hot pursuit, and the brigade commander Chen Qiang asks our division headquarters to speed up the retreat!" A correspondent came running to report!

"Ask Chen Qiang, what is the Japanese army that is chasing after you?" Liu Yecheng frowned, his hands behind his back.

"Report to the division commander, it's the second division of the Japanese army!!"

"What part of the Second Division?"

"This, it's not clear at the moment!" The correspondent bowed his head in shame.

"Play the piano!" Liu Yecheng was furious, "After fighting for a long time, I don't even know who the opponent is, what is he Chen Qiang doing!" ”

"Commander, let's get rid of your anger! The Japanese army really looked up to us this time, and used three A divisions to sweep up, and we suffered a loss when we were caught off guard, so don't mind. ”

As the voice came, a small but middle-aged soldier walked over, his eyes bright and with a hint of a smile.

"That's two different things!" Liu Yecheng was still angry, "In vain, Chen Qiang has been a soldier for half his life, but he can't even figure out the opponent's number after fighting for a long time, so he still has the face to say that he is a veteran?" ”

"This can't be blamed on them, after all, this time the Japanese army came very suddenly, we encountered the enemy in a situation of surprise, and the troops were routed before they could deploy in a hurry, and the 386th Brigade was already very good if they could resist for so long." Lu Gang said with a smile.

"Okay, let's hurry up, I estimate that the 386th Brigade can resist for another two hours, it will be good." Listening to the faint sound of gunfire from behind, Liu Yecheng waved his hand and took the lead in walking forward.

When the troops walked more than thirty miles earlier, suddenly there was a rush of gunfire in front, and after a while, the correspondent of the 358th Regiment ran panting, "Report to the chief, a large force of the Japanese army has also been found in front, and our regiment has already exchanged fire with them, and the regiment commander asked me to inform you, and quickly divert to Motianling." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Yecheng glanced at Lu Gang with a solemn expression, "This Japanese army is coming so fast?" ”

"Order the 357th Regiment to be the vanguard and immediately advance to the Sky Ridge!"

"Chief, the reconnaissance company has reported that Japanese troops have also appeared in the direction of Motianling, and the number is about one wing!"

This report smashed into everyone's hearts like a thunderbolt.

Liu Yecheng snorted coldly, "Hmph, the Japanese really think they will eat us." Order the troops, immediately retreat to the north! ”

The troops fought and withdrew, and by 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the 129th Division had completely merged with the Japanese army, and the two sides had become a pot of porridge. Because the Japanese army had the advantage in firepower, they slowly compressed all units of the 129th Division to the foot of the Motianling Mountain, and in this way, the two brigades of the 129th Division, with a total of more than 15,000 troops, were forced by the Japanese army to the Motianling, a mountain with a radius of less than 20 kilometers.

At this time, the 129th Division also figured out that the Japanese troops surrounding it on the opposite side were the 11th and 41st infantry wings of the 9th Brigade and Regiment of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, and the 5th Cavalry Wing and the field artillery wing of nearly 12,000 troops.

"Boom"

A 105-caliber howitzer shell exploded next to the makeshift division headquarters, and the powerful air wave shook the earth in the headquarters and fell straight down.

"Phew!" Spit out a mouthful of dirt in his mouth, Lu Gang smiled and said: "Division commander, the main force of the Japanese is really not covered, and even the caliber of the shells is larger than that of the ordinary Japanese field divisions." ”

Liu Yecheng took off his glasses, wiped them with a cloth and said with a smile: "Political commissar, we should be glad that we didn't encounter the Japanese army's heavy artillery brigade, the Japanese army there is equipped with the real big guys." The current scene is nothing compared to them. ”

Lu Gang nodded, "It's already half past two in the afternoon, as long as we order the troops to hold out until dark, we can break through at night." ”

As soon as Lu Gang's words fell, the roar of an airplane was heard in the sky, followed by a series of violent explosions ahead.

"Not good, the Japanese planes also entered the war!" The two looked at each other, raised their binoculars and looked into the sky.

In the telescope, more than 20 Japanese fighters shuttled back and forth in the sky, and black bombs fell on the positions of the 129th Division like eggs, blowing up the positions in bursts of dust.

"Jingle Bell"

The phone rang, and a staff officer took the phone, "This is the division headquarters, which part of you are good, I will immediately tell the division commander!" ”

"Report to the division commander, political commissar, and 386th Brigade that their positions have been heavily bombarded by Japanese planes and artillery, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties, and they have requested the division headquarters to send reinforcements."

Liu Yechenghuo turned around and looked, his eyes hidden under the lenses shot a terrifying light, and he said loudly: "You go and tell Chen Qiang, now it's very hard everywhere, and I don't have any reinforcements, but the position must not be lost, and you must hold out until dark, otherwise I won't be able to spare him!" ”

"Yes!" The staff officer immediately said into the microphone: "Brigade Commander Chen, the division commander has ordered you to hold out until dark, and you must hold out until dark, otherwise military law will be involved." ”

Just when the double shot was red-eyed, the commander of the 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army, Major General Tazaki Noboru, also stood on a small hillside, quietly watching the Japanese army rush towards the position of the 129th Division like a tide.

When he saw that the two sides had been fighting for more than an hour and were still deadlocked, he turned to the communication soldier beside him and said, "Order the Fifth Cavalry Wing to send a brigade to assist Ichiro Nagano Osa, and be sure to tear a defensive line through the position of the Shina Army." ”

"Hello!" The Japanese communications corps took the order and left.

Because the 386th Brigade was the last to retreat to Motianling, it was placed in the forefront, and the position they held was also the main offensive position of the Japanese army, and the battle was extremely tragic from the beginning. The original two regiments of nearly 6,000 people are now less than 4,000 people left.

Chen Qiang stood in the command headquarters and looked up at the planes in the sky with hatred, this thing flew around in the sky, sometimes dropping bombs, sometimes strafing, the damage caused to the ground troops was too great, but his own side had nothing to do with them, he could only watch the soldiers fall in a pool of blood.

At this time, a Japanese plane seemed to have discovered Chen Qiang's position and swooped down towards the command post in a daze.

"Brigade Commander, Run!" The staff officers in the command headquarters noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly pulled Chen Qiang to run out of the command post.

At this time, the altitude of the Japanese plane had been reduced to more than 200 meters, and the soldiers on the ground could almost see the hideous faces of the Japanese pilots on the plane.

"Da ......."

A burst of machine gun fire flashed, followed by a violent explosion near Chen Qiang, and a towering black column of smoke soared into the sky.

Chen Qiang, who had just run out of the headquarters, looked back and saw that his command post was still standing there in an upright position, but the Japanese fighter plane that was diving just now had fallen on a small hillside, and a raging fire was burning around it.

Such a strange scene stunned Chen Qiang, could it be that the Japanese pilot suddenly crashed directly into the hillside without thinking about it?

At this moment, the staff officer beside him excitedly shouted: "Brigade commander, plane, that's our plane coming!" ”

Following the direction of the staff officer's finger, Chen Qiang saw more than forty silver-white war eagles coming out of the clouds, the clear blue sky and white sun flags on the fuselage shining in the sunlight, they danced their light and vigorous wings like fierce eagles swooping downward, and the Japanese planes that were still flying around the heads of the soldiers just now were now scurrying around like a flock of frightened chickens.

......The sound of machine guns rang out in the air continuously, and several Japanese planes fell like dumplings in front of the position of the 386th Brigade. Several fighters from the group of newly arrived planes also pounced on the Japanese artillery positions.

"Woo woo woo ......" Bursts of mournful sirens suddenly sounded in the sky, and several loud noises came from the Japanese artillery positions, and then they were drowned in a sea of fire.

The warring sides on the ground were stunned by this sudden turn of events, and after half a while, an earth-shattering cheer erupted from the position of the 386th Brigade, and countless soldiers shouted and shouted.

Amid the cheers, several war eagles circled twice in the sky, as if after identifying the identities of both sides, they swooped down on the position in front of the 386th Brigade. In an instant, several bombs fell more than 50 meters in front of the position, and the soldiers of a large group of Japanese troops who were still fiercely attacking just now were killed and wounded everywhere in several huge explosions.

At this time, if Chen Qiang, who was watching from the command post, didn't know what to do, then his decades of soldiers would be in vain. He rang the phones of the regiments, and after answering, he only said one sentence: "Now all of them will launch a counter-charge for me!" ”

In the loud charge, thousands of soldiers jumped out of the position and rushed out towards the Japanese army, and the Japanese soldiers who were still in place in front of the position and were stupid by the bombing were instantly overwhelmed by this torrent.

At the same time, the division headquarters of the 129th Division also noticed the movement in the front position, and the division commander Liu Yecheng, who was surprised, immediately ordered all the troops in the front to jointly launch a counter-charge.

The counter-charge team fought until the Japanese set up a temporary defensive line before retreating. This time, the Japanese army not only attacked in vain, but also returned in vain after dropping thousands of corpses, so angry that Major General Tazaki Noboru in the command was furious, "Baga Yali, can anyone tell me where this Chinese plane came from!" ”

It's no wonder that the opponent's battle line is already crumbling, and it looks like it is about to be broken by itself, but who knows that he will kill Cheng Cheng halfway and bite the gold and beat his team to the ground, and anyone who sees this situation will be angry.

The chief of staff on the side looked at the fighter plane that was still raging in the sky and smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, this is Chahar's fighter!" ”

"Chahar's fighters!"

This sentence hit Major General Tazaki Noboru like a heavy hammer in his heart, suffocating the Japanese scolding that he was about to speak, and at the same time his face became pale, because he suddenly thought of something: "Chahar's plane has arrived, will their infantry be far away?" ”

Major General Tazaki's prediction was very accurate, just as the defeated soldiers of the Japanese army were preparing to regroup and relaunch the attack under the leadership of the officers, a fierce burst of gunfire was heard from the east, and countless soldiers wearing dark green combat uniforms and steel helmets killed from the flank of the 9th Brigade......
