When the Eighth Route Army performed shooting and stabbing on the playground, no one dared to underestimate this army, and the carefully selected soldiers were all sharpshooters with hundreds of shots, 50-meter targets, 100-meter targets, and the most awesome thing was the pistol shooting of Zhao Ziming, the commander of the spy company, who used a Mauser pistol to hit ten crockpots 30 meters away in a row, almost without aiming.

When the soldiers performed the stabbing stab, hundreds of people moved in unison, with a roar, the white blade flew over, the cold light was dazzling, and the murderous atmosphere was awe-inspiring, and the US officers saw from the fierce eyes of the soldiers that these people were the elite of a hundred battles.

Commander Wu Changqing also performed a hand, very casually raised his hand, shot down a chirping sparrow in the sky, from the commander to the soldiers are so brave, can not help but make the US troops itch, with M1911 pistol and carbine for target shooting, the result can be imagined, in terms of the standards of the US military is good, in terms of the standards of the Eighth Route Army, it is to be confined.

The Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee and even Yan'an attached great importance to this unofficial visit and arranged a real battle to let the US troops see the combat effectiveness and vigorous offensive spirit of the Eighth Route Army.

The plan is to surround an iron mine where the devils are entrenched, and carry out encirclement and reinforcement, which is the most classic way of fighting the Eighth Route Army, which has long been mastered, and the devils and the puppet army are fooled every time.

It was originally a battle that was sure to be won, and he was all counting on a long face, but as a result, two tanks came, and Wu Changqing gave a death order to win at all costs.

The soldiers rushed forward one after another, and at the cost of a platoon, they finally blew up the enemy's tank with explosives packs, and finally won the battle with a white-knuckle battle, annihilating the reinforced Japanese puppet army.

After the battle, it was a storm-wrenching battle to clean up the battlefield, quickly collect weapons and ammunition, carry away the dead and wounded, and place the enemy's corpses neatly on the side of the road, and then quickly retreat.

After collecting troops and returning to the camp, they happened to get another great piece of good news, the culprit of the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, General Yamamoto Go***, commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet, was shot down by the US forces in the Pacific Theater and awarded the head, which was another huge loss for the Japanese Navy after the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Kuah, but it was a great victory for the allies.

The Chinese and American soldiers drank and talked to celebrate the great victory of the US Navy, and the relationship between the two sides went further, Wu Changqing and Ye Xuefeng seemed to have seen a large number of US aid sent to them, not to mention the excitement.

After a few days, the United States sincerely invited the Jiangbei Column to visit the actual battle, and Wu Changqing and Ye Xuefeng each brought their guards and an officer from the Propaganda Section of the Column Headquarters to the territory of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Late that night, the troops secretly assembled, and Wu Changqing and Ye Xuefeng also came to the playground, only to see dozens of cars ready to go, mainly light jeeps and Dodge ten-wheeled trucks, as well as a few half-track vehicles that pressed the formation, and the carriages seemed to be equipped with large-caliber artillery.

Chen Zikun jumped into the co-pilot seat of a jeep and beckoned the head of the Eighth Route Army to sit, Wu Changqing jumped into the back seat, touched the leather cushion under his buttocks, it was soft and comfortable, and there was a large-caliber machine gun behind the car, he asked Chen Zikun: "Where is this going?" ”

"Attack the provincial capital." Chan replied.

Wu Changqing was taken aback, there was only one battalion of troops on the playground, and he dared to attack the provincial capital, whether Chen Zikun was courageous, or the American-style equipment gave him such courage.

Ye Xuefeng got into another jeep, sat with the US military personnel and talked and laughed, and the convoy set off in the dark of night, crossed the pontoon bridge to the south bank of the Huaijiang River, and galloped along the highway built by the Japanese in the direction of the provincial capital.

The terrain of the south of the Yangtze River is dominated by plains, in the period of Chen Zikun's reign, a lot of gravel paved roads were built, after the Japanese came, in order to plunder resources and transport troops, some military roads were built, the traffic was very convenient, it was night, the roads were empty without any personnel and vehicles, and the convoy of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army drove straight in with its headlights on.

The night breeze is blowing, Chen Zikun is full of spirit, as if he has returned to his youth, when he attacked the provincial capital with 800 tigers and seized the position of Sun Kaiqin's overseer, and tonight the 500 elites will recreate the glory of the year.

Suddenly, a turret in front blocked the road, and the intersection was cross-sectional, and two Japanese soldiers with four puppet soldiers were on night duty, they waved signal flags to try to stop the convoy of unknown origin, and the jeep that opened the road swept with a 12.7mm Browning heavy machine gun, knocked them to the ground, directly hit the barricade, and rushed over.

Shooting began from the turret, and the convoy continued without the slightest pause, leaving only a half-track car, which fired two cannons with a 105-caliber cannon on board, and the impregnable turret collapsed.

Wu Changqing was dumbfounded, such a turret in the eyes of the Eighth Route Army, but it was an extremely difficult target to deal with, in order to pull out a turret, it would take at least a few months to prepare, and it would take huge manpower and material resources to succeed, and it only took a few minutes for the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army to uproot a turret, and this firepower was too powerful.

A battalion of mechanized troops was on a rampage in the hinterland of the Japanese army, and the telephone poles along the way were blown off by grenades, communications were cut off, and the local garrisons were slow to respond.

On the outskirts of the provincial capital lived a division of the puppet army, dissatisfied with the formation, about a thousand people, usually flaunting their might and oppressing the good and bad deeds, today ushered in the catastrophe, the anti-Japanese salvation army drove to their barracks, the convoy stopped and began to shoot freely, howitzers, mortars, heavy machine guns roared together, the barracks were bombed ghosts crying wolves, thick smoke rose everywhere, fought for five minutes, Chen Zikun ordered: "Withdraw!" ”

Wu Changqing wondered, why don't you go in and clean up the battlefield, you can pick up a lot of guns and bullets.

Chen Zikun smiled faintly: "I can't look down on those broken copper and iron, and besides, we are in a hurry, and we haven't gone to the provincial capital yet." ”

On the streets at seven o'clock in the morning, the hawkers selling breakfast and the clerks who went to work witnessed the convoy of the national army swaggering through the city, shelling the puppet provincial government building, shooting at the Japanese military police headquarters, and then marching away like no one else.

However, at this time, the Japanese army had already reacted, garrisons in various places were dispatched one after another, reconnaissance planes flew around in the sky, the air was filled with radio waves, and the Japanese army and puppet army in the entire east China were urgently mobilized to encircle and intercept this small and bold force.

In the end, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was unable to retreat, and was surrounded by the Japanese army on a hill not far from the Huai River.

Wu Changqing was very anxious: "Hurry up and break through, it's pointless to hold on." ”

Chan said: "I call this magnet tactic, you will understand later." ”

The Japanese army rushed from all over the country about a wing of the attack, did not take a break, so they hurriedly launched an attack, the Japanese firepower was very fierce, the long-distance was the 92-type infantry guns and heavy machine guns, the middle distance was grenadiers and light machine guns, at close range 38 guns pierced through the Yang, and there were bombers in the sky, and there were gunboats in the river.

But this kind of scene is to act in front of the backward Chinese miscellaneous army, and in front of the anti-Japanese National Salvation Army of the whole United States, there is only a share of recognition.

There were more and more Japanese troops, and the inner and outer three layers surrounded the hill, and Chen Zikun saw this scene with a telescope and ordered to call for air support.

Fifteen minutes later, a squadron of fighters that took off from the Jiangbei Field Airfield flew to the battlefield and tortured the devils on the periphery with machine guns and bombs.

The Flying Tigers ran out of ammunition and went back, the Japanese troops who were heavy in casualties launched an attack, countless Japanese soldiers rushed up with bayonets, and they were greeted by rounds of dense bullet rain, all the American weapons were automated, and the fight was like a splash of wind, and the devils fell to the ground like cutting leeks, and the attack was quickly disintegrated.

"Ceasefire!" At the sound of the order, the fighters stopped firing, smoke rose from the muzzles of their guns, and they unloaded the empty magazines and replaced them with new ones.

Wu Changqing's first feeling was that the firepower of American-style weapons was fierce, but the ammunition was consumed too quickly, which was not a blessing but a disaster for the army that lacked logistical supplies.

He felt that his mouth was dry, and he picked up the kettle, but found that it was empty, and he couldn't help but worry, there was no water source on the hill, and he made the mistake of the Majian Street Pavilion.

However, Chen Zikun was not worried at all, he said that the drink would arrive soon, and asked Wu Changqing whether he liked to drink Coke or coffee.

Wu Changqing didn't know what Coke was, but soon he tasted this delicious black drink in a small glass bottle, several U.S. military transport planes painted with white stars arrived over the battlefield, the hatch opened, and began to deliver supplies, umbrella flowers bloomed in the air, weapons and ammunition fell, and food supplies fell, Coca-Cola was placed in an insulated box, and the bottle still had dewdrops, and it was a little choking when I drank it, but it felt very refreshing.

Devil reinforcements are still arriving, tanks and cavalry are also appearing on the flanks, but they are only beaten under the air fire, including the gunboats on the Huai River, which were beaten by the Flying Tigers fighters and raised black smoke, and they quit the battlefield early.

At night, Xiaoshanbao was still firmly in the hands of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and they even extended the battle line outward a lot, so as not to fall into the hands of the enemy.

The Japanese army took advantage of the night to launch several attacks, but the flares here were fired every minute as if they were not asking for money, and the night was as bright as day, and there was nothing to hide from any surprise attack, and the Japanese army left a bunch of corpses in vain and went back in ashes.

In the morning, the transport plane came again, bringing not only a company of paratroopers, but also still hot Nantai egg steamed buns.

Wu Changqing said: "I finally understand, what is called magnet tactics, this is to lure the Japanese over and slaughter." ”
