Qiao Anbang went to prepare the poison gas bomb at the same time, the army in the Hongqiao airport was in chaos, although the attack of the [***] team was temporarily defeated, but for the presence of the [***] team near the airport, which shocked the devil commander, while mobilizing all the troops to strengthen the defense, he hurriedly sent an urgent telegram to the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters

Shanghai, known as the headquarters of the Central China Dispatch Army.

Matsui Ishine, who was furious at the attack on the Zhabei outpost, was furious at the moment, and the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs negotiated with the British for more than two hours without any result, but the British took out two steel helmets of the imperial army, saying that they had been found at the scene of the attack.

How does this make Matsui Ishine not annoyed, how not to be angry? If it weren't for the fact that the current war with the British would cause great disadvantages to the Great Empire, Matsui Ishine would have ordered the troops to level the British Concession and break the British consul into pieces.

Matsui Ishine had just angrily reprimanded a diplomat, and suddenly, Chief of Staff Tsukada Tsukashi walked in with a hurried expression, still holding a telegram in his hand.

Matsui Ishine saw Tsukada's face heavy, looked at the telegram in his hand again, and asked in surprise, "Tsukada-kun, what's wrong, what's the matter?" ”

"General, the Hongqiao Airport Garrison Brigade called, the airport was suddenly attacked by the Zhina Army, the garrison brigade tried its best to block it, and now it has repelled the first attack of the Zhina Army, just in case, the garrison brigade requested urgent assistance." Tsukada attacked the right path suddenly.

"What? Hongqiao Airport? Matsui Shigen was shocked when he heard this, there can be hundreds of various fighters of the imperial army in Hongqiao Airport, once it is lost, the consequences will be simply a disaster.

"Bagaya Road, order the Hangzhou Garrison Brigade to immediately send two brigades to rush to the airport! After calling back the airport garrison brigade, we will stick to it with all our might, and we must not let the airport fall into the hands of the Chinese people! Matsui Ishone ordered decisively.

"Hay!" Tsukada suddenly bowed his head in response, and then walked away with his saber on his shoulder

Outside of Shanghai, Jiading County.

Qiao Anguo led the Tiger Brigade after nearly two hours of rapid march, and finally arrived at the periphery of Jiading County, Jiading is about 30 kilometers away from Kunshan in a straight line, and the real marching distance is more than 100 miles.

In addition, the night was dark, which greatly hindered the speed of the car's march, so the distance of less than fifty kilometers took nearly two hours.

After arriving in Jiading County, Qiao Anguo immediately ordered his troops to start an offensive according to the original plan, in response to Qiao Anbang's attack on the airport in Shanghai.

After the offensive began, nearly 100 howitzers of various calibers and 100 field artillery pieces of the Huben Brigade fired in unison, raining shells on the army's fortifications.

In the dark night, the entire outside of Jiading City fell into a sea of fire, which was spectacular from a distance.

After the artillery bombardment was over, under the cover of the armored company, the battalions of the 1st Infantry Regiment that were the main attackers immediately shouted in unison and launched a charge against the position of the Japanese army.

With the powerful assault fire of the armored company as the forerunner, the devil soldiers who suffered heavy casualties under heavy artillery fire were powerless to resist.

"Rush...... Kill, ......" Amid the deafening shouts of killing, thousands of officers and soldiers lined up in a dense line of skirmishers and smoothly rushed to the outer positions of the devils shrouded in gunpowder smoke and artillery fire.

With the firepower of the Tiger Brigade, once the position of the army is attacked, then victory is already in sight, and at close range, the devil holding the 38 rifle is unable to resist the powerful firepower composed of the semi-automatic rifle and the Thomson submachine gun with an extremely fast rate of fire

Shanghai, known as the headquarters of the Central China Dispatch Army.

The chief of staff, Major General Tsukada Tsukasa, went and returned, rushed in, and reported to Matsui Ishine with an ugly face: "General, no, I just received a farewell message from the Jiading Garrison Brigade, the main force of the Shina Army had already entered the city five minutes ago, and the garrison brigade did its best not only failed to expel the Shina Army from the city, but was attacked by destruction. Now that Jiading County has been lost, the garrison brigade of more than 1,000 imperial warriors is all shattered! ”

"Yaga!" Matsui Shigen was furious when he heard this, and then he involuntarily gasped and said angrily: "The combat power of the people of Shina is so strong? In less than an hour, you can capture a fortified county town garrisoned by a garrison brigade of the imperial army? ”

"Yes, the Shina people are so strong, no wonder the Marines and the Kawatani Brigade were defeated so badly!"

Tsukada nodded approvingly: "You know, the imperial army can have built a large number of field fortifications in Jiading County, but those civil fortifications were almost all destroyed by the heavy artillery fire of the people of China at the beginning. ”

"Order, the garrison brigade will transfer back the infantry brigade that rushed to the airport, immediately go to the front line of Liu Xing, and cooperate with the 5th Reading Infantry Brigade to block the Zhinamen with all their might, as long as we can hold out until dawn, our sea-based aviation and land-based aviation will be able to take off, and with the support of the aviation, it will not be a problem to resist the offensive of the Zhina." Matsui Ishone calmly deployed.

"Hay!" Tsukada once again bowed his head sharply in response, then turned around and strode away

Outside Hongqiao Airport, [***] temporary position.

Qiao Anbang took Jiang Wei and several other soldiers to bring back a few boxes of poison gas bombs from the aircraft, Xie Jinyuan saw that there were skeleton patterns on the boxes, and immediately asked, "Anbang, what are these things?" ”

"Gas bombs!" Qiao Anbang replied without thinking.

"Gas bombs?" Xie Jinyuan was taken aback and said, "You mean, firing poison gas bombs at devils?" ”

"Yes." Qiao Anbang nodded calmly and said: "The devil has already taken precautions, and there is also an anti-aircraft machine gun as a big killing weapon, no gas bombs, if we want to capture the airport, it is simply impossible, and the devils often use gas bombs on us, this will give them a taste of this gas bomb." ”

"Great, in the Battle of Songhu, the little devils have used poison gas bombs against our army more than once, I don't know how many brothers fell under the poison gas of the devils, and I will return them all today! Let these dog-called beasts taste the taste of poison gas! Xie Jinyuan said indignantly.

Qiao Anbang instructed: "Big brother, the range of our grenadiers is only more than 200 meters, and we need to fire at close range, so wait for the eldest brother, you lead the brothers to feint and attract the fire of the devils, remember, it's just a feint, just use rifles and machine guns to fire at the devils, and you don't need to really charge." I led the grenadiers to sneak in from the flanks and fired gas bombs into the airfield. (Note, the grenadier equipped by the protagonist is German-style, with a range of about 250 meters) "No, once the devil discovers that you are in danger when you are approached and launched, you stay and command the troops, and I will take someone to launch poison gas bombs!" Xie Jinyuan immediately objected.

Qiao Anbang wanted to say something, but Xie Jinyuan immediately interrupted: "Anbang, don't fight, the Tiger Brigade on the periphery still needs your command, so if you want to recover Shanghai, you can do without me Xie Jinyuan, and you will definitely not work without you!" ”

After saying that, Xie Jinyuan patted Qiao Anbang's shoulder, and immediately led a few grenadiers to the flank.

Seeing Xie Jinyuan and the others disappear into the vast night, Qiao Anbang immediately dodged a Czech light machine gun from a machine gunner next to him, Huo Ran got up and shouted: "Brothers, cover fire!" ”

With that, he immediately opened fire in the direction of the airport with light machine guns, and the other fighters also began to open fire.

As soon as the gunshots rang out here, the devils guarding the fortifications did not know the truth, and in order to protect themselves, they also began to fire, and for a time the entire Hongqiao Airport was shot again.

Qiao Anbang held the light machine gun and roared while continuously strafing, and soon a shuttle of bullets was consumed, and before Qiao Anbang could change the ammunition, a machine gunner quickly took out a new magazine from his body and handed it to Qiao Anbang.

Qiao Anbang took the magazine and quickly replaced it, and then continued to strafe forward with the machine gun, although the bullets didn't know where they flew, but they had achieved their goal, and the devil's attention was all attracted.

Xie Jinyuan took four grenadiers and two soldiers carrying two boxes of poison gas bombs and took the opportunity to quietly touch the vicinity of Xiaoshanbao, where he and Qiao Anbang observed the enemy's situation.

Upon reaching the hill, the four grenadiers, with the help of two other fighters, quickly opened the ammunition box, removed the gas bomb, and prepared it for fire.

With Xie Jinyuan's order, the four grenadiers loaded the poison gas bombs into the grenadier canisters at the same time, and the four muffled sounds of "tom tom" sounded one after another, and the four poison gas bombs fell into the airport with a whistling sound.

Since most of the devil soldiers were firing frantically at the fortifications at the entrance, no one heard the already weak whistling sound in the dense gunfire, and it was night, so several poison gas bombs fell silently into the airport, and then began to squeak and emit poison gas.

Behind the hill, the four grenadiers did not stop, and they continued to fire poison gas bombs into the airport, while Xie Jinyuan and the other two soldiers were on guard with guns on the side.

"Tom tom tom tom ......tom" was another series of muffled sounds, and the four grenadiers fired dozens of poison gas bombs into the airfield in one go in just a few minutes.

At this time, the devils in the airport had already discovered the abnormality, and the devil soldiers who were lying in the fortifications and shooting indiscriminately smelled a pungent smell, and soon some devil veterans reacted quickly and screamed miserably: "Baga Yalu, it's poisonous gas...... Gas! ”

The devil soldiers who were shooting passed ten to hundred, and soon fell into chaos, and as the poisonous gas spread, many devils began to convulse and foam at the mouth.

At this moment, deafening shouts and roars suddenly sounded outside the airport, and I don't know how many Chinese are swarming in the darkness.
