Nao Takano has realized that he has lost the last chance to annihilate this [***] elite team, once such a small army enters the mountains, it is equivalent to a tiger with wings, and he is likely to be dragged down by it or even completely annihilated if he can't chase it.

In the end, the seventeen members commanded by Qin Buer and the thirty-one members commanded by Yao Le successfully joined forces, and successfully attacked a cavalry company of the Jing'an Army, turning from infantry to cavalry.

Two batches of nine-plane formations of the Flying Eagle Squadron of the Air Force Headquarters of the Northeast Army, which took off from Beiping, flew over the airport in the western suburbs of Jinzhou, and the wreckage of the fighters was everywhere, and when they flew low, they were also blocked and fired at by the ground fire of the troops, and the airport in the western suburbs of Jinzhou has always been designated as a forbidden area for the Northeast Air Force.

The meaning of the Beiping Military Branch can be said to be very clear, that is, I will not attack your Jinzhou airfield, and you should not bomb Beiping, we will fight in the airspace above Rehe Chengde, and the Northeast Air Force still has a certain slight advantage in terms of range.

It can be said that since the start of the war, except for the first time since the start of the war, the Northeast Air Force has not only been added with various halos, but also put on all kinds of shackles, this will not work, that will not work, it will not take the initiative to attack the enemy, it is not allowed to attack the field airfield in the western suburbs of Jinzhou, it is not allowed to attack the logistics and transportation lines of the army, and so on.

But if you don't attack yourself, it doesn't mean that you will not attack you, so the Northeast Air Force stationed in Beiping can always prepare for war, and the fighters frequently take to the air for alert patrols, so mechanical failures and spare parts consumption are put on the top of the journey, after learning that the army brothers attacked the military airfield, Gao Zhihang can be said to have a long sigh of relief, because the Northeast Air Force is completely imported air force, and he is an independent production of equipment, and the war between the two can be described as one and the other. When it comes to a level of maintenance, there is a huge difference between the two.

However, the reconnaissance detachment that reconnoitred Lalatun brought back very bad news, that is, a large number of military vehicles of the Chinese army were transporting, loading and unloading all kinds of materials, and the reconnaissance detachment was projected by fierce ground-air firepower, and there were traces of firefighting nearby, which may have destroyed a small amount of materials of the Syrian army, but it was absolutely not all, because there were at least 100 or more military trucks on the ground transporting ammunition and materials, and after the two fighters were damaged, the reconnaissance detachment began to return home.

Zhang Xueliang was a little surprised by the news that Lalatun was not destroyed, thinking that he believed that Zhang Xuewu would definitely not lie about the military situation like this, but Zhang Xueliang also knew that even if Zhang Xuewu would not, it was difficult to guarantee that his subordinates would not? For the two reconnaissance reports, and the main force of the army, except for continuing to attack Chengde, the rest of the troops are attacking and advancing to the passes along the Great Wall?

This news seems to be the proof that the logistics of the Yue Ben have not been completely destroyed, otherwise how would the Yue army dare to take such a risk? Resolutely continue the offensive without logistical supplies? This is no longer in the category of adventure, but should belong to the category of hysterical madness.

Onboard! Onboard! The battle of Chengde was destined to become a sad place for the Yue army, and the officers and men of the 10th and 14th Divisions had developed a phobia of Chengde, with bullets fired from under the abandoned rubble, wounded Chinese soldiers who suddenly jumped up from the pile of corpses to detonate cluster grenades, medium [***] chariots that served as fixed firing points, and electric detonation point fronts, which seemed to be killing [***] in an endless stream.

Even if they shouted "Long live His Majesty the Emperor", it was difficult for the officers and soldiers to muster up the courage to fight, how many [***] were there in Chengde City? Five thousand? Seven thousand? The intelligence department of the Kwantung Army became very strict at this moment, and even began to deny that it had submitted information about the less than 10,000 defenders in Chengde before the war.

After repeated tearing and killing, more than 7,000 Chinese soldiers were killed, plus their wounded, so it is likely that the strength of the new 1st Division of the Chinese defenders in Chengde has been strengthened by the battle, reaching more than 20,000 people.

How many casualties did it take to capture Chengde? No one can explain Matsuki Naoliang and Hirose Shousuke, but when the Yue army stormed Chengde and attacked the passes along the Great Wall, several cavalry wings and cavalry brigades that were not suitable for attacking the fortified positions distributed by the Yue army in various parts of Rehe were all assembled and began to march quickly towards Lingyuan, seemingly intending to reinforce, but in fact to ensure the unimpeded retreat route.

In the darkness of the Chengde offensive and defensive battles, the key points located in the passes along the Great Wall, Xifengkou and Luowenyu, all of which are the traffic channels from Pingdong to Redong, are towering peaks and the terrain is dangerous.

According to the previous meeting deployment of the Beiping Army Branch, the Song Zheyuan Department of the 29th Army was responsible for the defense of Chenglingzikou, through Dongjiakou, Xifengkou, Luowenyu to Malanyu.

After receiving the order, Song Zheyuan telegraphed and ordered the 37th Division to take Santunying as the center to defend the line from Chenglingzi to Panjiakou, ordered the 38th Division to take Zunhua as the center and defend the line from Longjingguan to Malanyu, and ordered the provisional 2nd Division to assemble from Yutian to Ping'an Town and Dongxinzhuang Town to stand by.

To Song Zheyuan's surprise, after the armies were deployed, they did not see the counterattack order of the Beiping Army Branch issued for a long time? You must know that the one who was besieged in Chengde was your cousin Zhang Xueliang, the army was the German Armament Division of the Central Military Institute, and the old man was the Seventh Infantry Brigade of the Northeast Army.

Is it waiting for the Central Military Department? But two days later, the three divisions of the Central Army also arrived one after another, and the battle order was still not issued? Now Song Zheyuan is very strange? To leave somebody in the lurch? If this is the case, wouldn't it be too unjust for Shen Ke's unit of the 106th Division to die at the beginning?

Unexpectedly, not long ago, Song Zheyuan learned that the commando of the newly formed First Division had attacked the Chaoyang logistics supply base and Jinzhou Airport of the Yue Army, and Song Zheyuan was keenly aware of the appearance of major fighters, so he ordered the 29th Army to be on alert, and its vanguard was ready to go out of Xifeng Pass at any time.

On March 25, Song Zheyuan had not yet made a move, but the army took the lead in knocking on the door, and the main force under the command of Major General Jiro Bing of the 14th Brigade of the 14th Brigade launched a surprise attack at night, and occupied the vital gate in one fell swoop, which was equivalent to giving Song Zheyuan a resounding slap in the face. The 29th Army was immediately ordered to immediately enter the battle with a supplementary regiment, which temporarily stabilized the situation of the battle.

Song Zheyuan personally led the main force of the 29th Army to counterattack along the Xifeng Pass, and blocked the attacking Yue Army for a tactical detour, while Hattori Hyojiro commanded the 14th Mixed Brigade and the 29th Army to repeatedly engage in hand-to-hand combat on the positions on both sides of the Xifeng Pass.

Because the officers and men of the 29th Army were armed with broadswords and engaged in close combat with the Japanese army, they were stuck in a group, so that the 75-mm mountain artillery brigade equipped by the Japanese army could not play its role. However, the fierce white-knuckle battle caused heavy casualties on both sides, and the 14th Brigade encountered such a fierce enemy for the first time, and after the final fierce battle, Hattori Hyojiro thought that it would be difficult for the enemy army with superior attacking forces and terrain to be effective in one blow, so he secured the Kimine Pass with one division, and the main force was concentrated on the north side of the Great Wall to standby.
