Chapter 339: The Japanese Army Moves South

At the time of the great war in Central Asia, less than 5,000 remnants of the First Division of the New Third Army led by Yang Jingyu were rushing south for their lives, and he had been fighting the Japanese on the battlefield for nearly ten years since he joined the Anti-Japanese League in Northeast China in 1933. From Montenegro Baishui to Fujian, and from Fujian to Mongolia, the footprints can be said to have traveled to almost all battlefields, but it has never been as desperate as in Mongolia, without any reinforcements, and supplies are always not delivered for various reasons, or only very little, which is undoubtedly fatal to his soldiers who have been fighting in the Yang Feng system.

Moreover, this situation is very common for the entire New Third Army to aid the Soviet Union's 50,000 horses, their ammunition supply at the beginning relied on the Soviet Union, and after the defeat of the Soviet Union, they relied on Yan'an, thousands of kilometers of long transportation lines and the Mongolian puppet army supported by the Japanese from time to time harassment, making this transportation line extremely fragile, and the New Third Army was like being forgotten by the entire world, fighting alone in the Mongolian steppe.

In the past, when the Japanese army had no time to look south, because the main opponent was the Mongolian puppet army, they attacked the city everywhere, and even controlled most of the Mongolian steppe, but not long ago, the Japanese army suddenly left Kulen, and pushed south with 200,000 troops, including an armored division, and the new third army, which lacked guns and ammunition, was simply unable to support, and the entire army was completely scattered, and everyone was fleeing south.

"Division commander, the Japanese tanks have caught up, and the rearguard is all finished." An officer covered in blood caught up from behind, and after saying that, he fell directly down from his horse.

"Prepare to meet the enemy, anti-tank machine guns ready." He endured his heartache and glanced at the veteran who had followed him since the era of the Anti-Japanese Federation, if he hadn't listened to his own persuasion, maybe he would still follow Dong Zhentang at this time!

"There are no bullets, it was supposed to pass a few months ago, but it has never been delivered, and now there are less than 200 armor-piercing rounds." An officer shouted as he unloaded the 14.5mm machine gun from the carriage. These four machine guns were still equipped by Yang Feng during the Anti-Japanese Federation, and later when they participated in the war in the south, because there were a large number of war defense guns made in Chongqing, and the Japanese army did not have many tanks, so they were basically idle.

"Save on it. Prepare more Molotov cocktails. Yang Jingyu roared.

The veterans quickly began to dig bunkers in the ground, set up four machine guns, evenly split more than a hundred armor-piercing rounds, and then camouflage themselves with turf. More than a hundred Molotov cocktails were also distributed, and before these preparations were completed, dozens of Japanese tanks appeared in the distance under the cover of about a brigade of infantry.

Yang Jingyu hastily built a circular position, and his subordinates were basically all infantry, and he would definitely not be able to outrun the Japanese army in such a field battle. You can only fight until you can count when it is.

"Let's get in touch with Beiping!" Looking at the Japanese tanks that were rushing up, he anxiously asked the dispatcher, who was an old subordinate who had been with him for many years and had always had the password to contact Beiping.

"Comrade Yang Jingyu, this is not appropriate, right?" The commissar said with a frown on the side.

"When is it now, you still have to take care of this." Yang Jingyu said.

"Got in touch." At this time, the dispatcher shouted.

"Tell us where we are, ask for air support, and tell them separately. The Japanese army appeared to be preparing to attack inland. Yang Jingyu hurriedly said.

At this time, the Japanese tank shells had already exploded on the position, and after he finished speaking, he immediately turned around and went to direct the battle. The political commissar hesitated for a moment and said to the dispatcher: "Then report to Yan'an."

Boss Yang of Beiping was sitting on the Marauder at this time, watching the tanker fishing in the modification not far away! Now the tanker is almost finished, except for the stern that cannot be dismantled, it has been demolished, and the original round stern has become straight because a part of the deck has been added. Now workers are painting it.

The layout of the modified aircraft carrier will be very weird, first of all, other aircraft carriers are one side of the ship island, but this is the yang ship island in the stern, which Yang Feng is helpless, no matter what he does, it is impossible to dismantle the control system in the stern. In this way, the landing runway can only be set on one side, and a take-off runway is reserved in the middle, which is nothing more than installing a protective net on one side, even if there is an accident, the plane will not get into the sea, but fortunately, the deck is more than 40 meters wide, which is still guaranteed.

In addition, because there is no hangar, and the modification is too time-consuming, so simply build a shed on the deck, and only keep a 150-meter runway in front, and the side without a runway and the remaining part in the middle can park forty or fifty aircraft, which is completely enough, and now there are a few heavy aircraft carriers.

In addition, it has installed a blocking cable bought from the United States, bought 20 carrier-based planes to train pilots, and waited for the carrier-based planes built by itself to enter service, and it is estimated that 20 more planes can be parked by folding the wings on both sides.

This cargo was about to make up for his own aircraft carrier galloping across the sea, and the little secretary sent him a telegram.

"Yang Jingyu?" Yang Feng almost forgot about this person, speaking of division-level officers, now he is a small role, and it is not worth wasting his mind to care. It's not worth mentioning this trivial matter of providing him with airdrop support, but it's also a trivial matter to follow him, although it involves system problems, but this is also a trivial matter, but he said that the Japanese army may attack the interior in the south, and this information needs to be taken seriously.

"Send planes to support him." After Yang Feng finished speaking, he got up and returned to Beiping, at this time Yang Jingyu's department had fallen into a bitter battle, if it wasn't for the anti-tank men hiding outside the defense line, desperately destroying six Japanese tanks, maybe the defense line had been broken at this time, but the anti-tank men were all wiped out.

"Hold on, the plane from Peking will arrive soon." When he received a reply, he immediately shouted at his soldiers, and the already desperate soldiers were in high spirits.

Three hours later, the planes that took off from Beiping arrived, and forty twin demons escorted thirty Liberator bombers, and pounced on them with great momentum, and the Japanese troops who were attacking Yang Jingyu did not hesitate to retreat at the moment when these air monsters appeared.

"What do the Japanese want to do? Who gave them such audacity, don't they know what it means?" In the Pentagon in Peiping, Boss Yang was pacing strategically, this situation was indeed abnormal, although the Japanese had countless reasons to attack China from Mongolia, but it was another thing to have the courage to act on it.

However, looking at the information about Japan that has been summarized in his hand, Boss Yang has understood a little bit, Japan's military strength has improved rapidly in recent times, first of all, the Yamato supercarrier has been put into service, this aircraft carrier with a displacement of more than 65,000 tons can carry up to 120 aircraft. Moreover, it is said that Japan is still testing a new type of fighter, although it has never been able to obtain accurate information because of the relatively high degree of secrecy, but it is estimated that it is not possible to get the purple lightning. Although this kind of aircraft will inevitably be abused in the face of the turboprop Mustang and the turboprop twin demons, the problem is that the Japanese themselves do not know what to do, so this new aircraft should give them enough courage.

As for the sixth master in Yang Feng's hands, he himself released a lot of negative news during this time, such as short engine life, short combat radius, difficult maintenance, etc., this mysterious jet fighter is falling off the altar.

In addition, while the Japanese Army Aviation has served Feiyan on a large scale, it has also begun to serve the latest high-altitude interceptor Zhong Kui, and the most important point is that their night fighter Moonlight has been served, which gives them enough confidence in the face of Yang Feng.

The reason why Yang Feng was able to show off his might in front of them was mainly because he had the devastating bombing ability to attack the Japanese mainland, especially the night bombing of the Liberators, before which the Japanese had no ability to resist this, but now with night fighters, the situation is completely different, not to mention the performance, at least it is no longer without the ability to fight back.

"Oh, this Japanese is developing very fast, isn't it too stupid for you to say that such good conditions don't go to the United States to trouble but go to China to die." Boss Yang said with emotion, you must know that as more and more countries are dragged into the world war by him, the mood has been getting better and better recently, but he has not led the war to the quiet and peaceful American continent, which has always made him difficult to let go.

"I don't think the Japanese army is trying to attack us, I'm afraid their target is here." Huang Baitao pointed to the map and said.

"Extend the oil field?" Yang Feng's eyes widened suddenly.

"Lay down the extended oil field in exchange for us in exchange for our cessation of aid to the Soviet Union, where we now have almost a third of our crude oil supply, and the loss of this oil field will not force us to the point of fighting them to the death, but will allow us to have the greatest scruples and then come and bargain with us." Huang Baitao continued.

In this way, the behavior of the Japanese can be easily explained, and Boss Yang couldn't help but smile and nodded.

They guessed correctly, the goal of the Japanese was to extend the oil fields, and the 200,000 Japanese troops who went south from Kulen quickly entered Suiyuan after quickly defeating the New Third Army, and the whole of China suddenly became nervous, and China and Japan were now actually in a state of armistice, although the two sides did not sign any agreement, but on the northern and southern fronts, they no longer attacked each other, and now the Japanese suddenly broke this situation, it is indeed difficult not to be shocked.

In the face of the menacing 200,000 Japanese army, Fu Zuoyi and Ma Hongkui, whose troops are now somewhat insufficient, can only take a defensive position, Fu Zuoyi's main force retreats to the east of Baotou, while Ma Hongkui is holding on to Ningxia, as for the defense of the middle, this can only be taken care of by the 18th Group Army, and now they have strong troops in the northwest, and this time the goal of the Japanese army is their lifeline, so naturally they must go into battle.
