Several of the devil soldiers, including the devil soldier Cao, were hit by the scorching heat and dense bullets, almost smashed into a sieve, and rolled down into the ditch near where they were hiding.

Hundreds of dragon tooth cavalry, after a volley of fire, seeing that there was no enemy in the grass on the side of the road to fight back, Zhao Tiezhu waved his hand to several soldiers and said, "You guys take a look." ”

Several soldiers responded, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, held submachine guns, formed a charging formation, and quickly approached the barren grass on the side of the road that was filled with gunpowder smoke by bullets.

Approaching the edge of the grass, still not being blocked by fire, several dragon tooth cavalry immediately rushed in, and before long, a soldier retreated from it and reported to Zhao Tiezhu: "Battalion commander, a total of six devils, all of whom were killed by us, it seems that they should be scouts sent by the little devils." ”

"Six devils? Half a class? Zhao Tiezhu was a little surprised, and said, "Damn, even this person dares to ambush us?" Chop off their heads for me with a saber and throw them in the ditch to feed the turtles. ”

"Yes!" Immediately several more warriors drew their sabers, rolled over and dismounted, and rushed into the grass.

After a while, several cavalry soldiers returned, and after turning over their horses, a cavalry company commander came to Zhao Tiezhu and said: "Battalion commander, there will be devils in ambush ahead, we can't advance forward unprepared like this, we have to think of a way to avoid unnecessary casualties like just now." ”

Zhao Tiezhu pondered for a moment, and said: "In this way, you will send a platoon to act as a spearhead in the front, and when you encounter such a place where the weeds are vigorous and the woods are thick, you will use submachine guns and machine guns to conduct fire reconnaissance." The main forces of the cavalry battalion followed behind. ”

The cavalry company commander hurriedly replied: "Yes." ”

………………

Fortunately, the cavalry battalion was not ambushed by a small group of devils like just now in the next advance, because the devils in Taiyuan got the news of their arrival, and as if facing a great enemy, they comprehensively reduced their forces, and held on to the front railway station, ready to meet them.

"Battalion commander, the front is the Taiyuan Railway Station, we can stop, the devils have heavy troops stationed at the railway station, this kind of position is not the work of our cavalry!" A company commander rode a horse to find Zhao Tiezhu and pointed to the south of Taiyuan City.

Zhao Tiezhu nodded silently, indeed, the infantry and artillery will play the leading role in the next battle for the time being.

At that moment, Qiao Youhua ordered the cavalry battalion to stop advancing, send people back to inform Qiao Youhua of the situation here, and wait for the arrival of the main force one after another.

At the same time, inside the city of Taiyuan.

At the headquarters of the First Army of the Japanese Army, the chief of staff of the Hashimoto group saluted Kazuki Seiji and said: "Your Excellency General, according to the report from the front of the railway station, the cavalry of the Longya Column of the Chinese Army has now arrived at the periphery of the railway station. ”

Kazuki Seiji's face became more solemn, and he asked, "Where are the 108th and 109th Divisions?" How long will it take to arrive? ”

"General, the closest reinforcement to Taiyuan is a field wing of the 108th Division, they take a train along the southern line of the Tongpu Railway, and have now passed through Jiaocheng County, which is still about seventy or eighty miles away from Taiyuan, and will definitely be able to arrive in two hours at most.

However, due to the lack of transportation, the other wings were still far away from one or two hundred miles, and even if they marched day and night, it would take a day and a night to arrive. ”

"So, in two hours, we will be reinforced by a main field wing of the 108th Division?" When Kazuki Qingji said this, his face looked a little better again.

Hashimoto nodded and said, "That's right, General." ”

"With the addition of this group of new forces, plus our original strength, it should not be a problem to hold on for a day and a night, as long as our main reinforcements arrive, we will no longer have to worry about it, the defense line has been broken through by the Longya Column." The more Kazuki Qingji spoke, the more relaxed his face became.

Hashimoto nodded and said: "General, what you said is right, but there is another good news for you, the commander of the front army just called and ordered the 3rd Air Regiment and the 1st Flying Squadron, which were originally stationed in Jinan, to be transferred to Taiyuan Wusu Airport and will do their best to provide us with air fire support."

Now this batch of fighters is on their way, and they should be there soon. ”

Hearing this, Seiji Kazuki was overjoyed and said: "Yo Xi, with the support of the air force, our chances of victory are a little higher, but, Hashimoto-kun, we must do a good job of garrisoning and defending the airport, and we must not let the enemy threaten the safety of the airport." ”

Seiji Kazuki attaches so much importance to the airport, and the fire support of the aviation is one thing, and the most important thing is to leave a way back for himself to quickly evacuate and escape.

Because there were not only fighters, bombers, and reconnaissance planes on the airfield, but also a transport plane, if necessary, he could even take a plane and flee to Datong or other places.

This kind of escape, speed and safety, is far stronger than evacuating on land.

"General, please rest assured, Wusu Airport is located in the southeast of the railway station, which belongs to the hinterland of our army's sphere of influence, as long as the railway station is not lost, the people of China will not want to touch the airport! In addition to the forward deployment of heavy troops.

The airport is also equipped with a reinforced brigade of defensive forces, and is also equipped with high-powered weapons such as anti-aircraft machine guns, so it is absolutely safe. Hashimoto confidently assured.

"Well, then I'll rest assured, Hashimoto-kun, the command of the front line will be handed over to you, I'm tired, I want to go and rest for a while." Aoji Kazuki has been nervous since yesterday, and he is indeed tired.

"Hai, Your Excellency General, please rest assured, the lowly rank will go out of the city to the south of the city and personally command the battle on the front line." Hashimoto bowed his head and said.

Three-quarters of the devil's total strength in Taiyuan was deployed at the railway station in the south of the city, along the banks of the Fen River, and the rest of the troops were deployed in the city and the airport.

Therefore, there are more than 20,000 devils and more than 10,000 puppet troops gathered near the railway station, and their defensive positions are nearly two kilometers wide and about three kilometers deep from south to north.

To the south is the Fenshui River, which goes around the bay from the railway station, and to the north is close to a cliff of the Taihang Mountains, in an area of six square kilometers.

The devils and the puppet army used the means of forcibly conscripting the people and strengthening the labor force to build a large number of fortifications, trenches and underground tunnels, crisscrossing and extending in all directions.

Various ground fire points, semi-embedded bunkers, and reinforced concrete bunkers are scattered all the way to the railway station, the core position of the devils.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Qiao Youhua rushed up with the main force and joined forces with Zhao Tiezhu's cavalry battalion.

During this time, Zhao Tiezhu had already sent scouts to roughly observe and detect the situation of the defense line of the devils and the puppet army.

As soon as Qiao Youhua arrived, Zhao Tiezhu reported the information they had detected to Qiao Youhua.

After listening to his report, Qiao Youhua nodded and said, "Okay, you have worked hard, go down and rest first, and the next task will be handed over to the infantry." ”

After Zhao Tiezhu saluted and left, Qiao Youhua immediately commanded in a deep voice: "Liu Yidao!" Organize a force attack now! ”
