"Airplanes, planes of little Japan."

"Run, everyone hide."

"Bombs, little Japan is going to drop bombs."

After all, it was a recruit, and as soon as they saw the appearance of the little Japanese plane, they immediately rioted, and the two-way column, which was barely neat, also became scattered, but these recruits also shouted from their mouths, and they definitely did not dare to leave the road without permission before Lu Jianbang gave an order.

After more than a month of brutal training, these recruits have deeply realized that their company commander, nicknamed Flower Monk, is by no means a good stubble, and if something is wrong, they will whip them, and it is not an ordinary whip, but an elongated leather whip made of buffalo skin.

"What's the panic, it's just a reconnaissance plane." Lu Jianbang flashed the leather whip wrapped around the forearm of his right hand, and a group of recruits were stunned for a moment, and they had no thoughts.

After all, Lu Jianbang was a veteran of a hundred battles, and he had seen a lot of small Japanese planes in the Songhu battlefield, the Nanjing battlefield, and the Lanfeng battlefield, and knew that this was just a reconnaissance plane without bombs, and this was a mountainous area in Lushan, with many peaks and mountains, and the pilots of the little Japanese would never dare to dive and strafe unscrupulously unless they planned to commit suicide.

"All of them, listen to my commands, run and walk, one, one, one, two-one."

"We are ......"

"The Nineteenth Brigade, the Nineteenth Brigade that cannot be defeated"

"We are ......"

"The Nineteenth Brigade, the Nineteenth Brigade that can't be dragged out"

"We are ......"

"Nineteen Brigades, Nineteen Brigades, Nineteen Brigades, Nineteen Brigades"

Seeing that Little Japan's plane was only hovering in the sky, and did not dive down as expected, the recruits quickly calmed down, and when the neat and loud trumpet sounded again, they were immediately swayed by the strong collective will, and then followed the pace of Lu Jianbang into the densely forested mountainous area.

(Dividing Line)

"Your Excellency Commander, there is a team of troops training below" Pilot Kobayashi turned around and asked Okamura Ninji, "Do you want to dive down and have some fun with these soldiers?" "Although this is a mountainous area of Lushan, and the dive strafing is very dangerous, as the ace pilot of the L Flight Regiment, Xiao Lin has enough self-confidence.

"Don't be overly troubled, just keep flying smoothly at this altitude." After all, Okamura Ninji was the commander of the Ll. Army, not an ordinary soldier, and he didn't want to risk his life, not to mention that the only mission this time was to fly reconnaissance, not to harass a small Chinese unit that was training.

Xiao Lin Haiyi roared and drove the plane through the air.

Okamura Ningji looked down through the porthole, and the camps of the national army could be seen everywhere on the ground, and the railways, highways, and mountain roads were all transported by the national army's transport convoys, of course, not trucks, but convoys composed of large board cars, trolleys, and even wheelbarrows.

Even if the material consumption of the national army is far inferior to that of the Japanese army, the hundreds of thousands of troops always have to eat, and the daily food required is a huge number; if the logistics line of the national army can be cut off, then the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops gathered in front of the Nanxun line will immediately become turtles in the urn, and the Japanese army will be able to eat them without much effort.

The question is, how easy is it to cut off the logistics supply lines of the national army?

Okamura Ningji's eyes hiding behind the lenses were full of worry, the steep and complex terrain of Lushan was a great obstacle to the maneuver of the Japanese army, and the efforts of the Japanese army to return to the flank of the country twice came to naught, because of the restriction of the terrain of Lushan, the rolling Lushan mountain range was like a heavy shackle, locking the giant beast of the Japanese army.

Kobayashi's reconnaissance plane flew back and forth in the air twice, and Okamura Ninji had no clue.

As an excellent pilot, Kobayashi felt that he had to remind the commander, so he immediately turned back to Okamura and said: "Your Excellency, there is not much aviation fuel left, and we have been circling in the Lushan Mountains for too long, the China Air Force may appear at any time, and if we do not return immediately, we will probably encounter danger." ”

Okamura Ningji was a little unwilling, and said in a deep voice: "Kobayashi-san, go around again, zuihou a circle"

As the ace pilot of the 1st Flying Regiment of the Central China Dispatch Army, who holds the record for shooting down the most enemy planes, Kobayashi's pride has been integrated into his bones, and the reason why he reminded Okamura Ninji was out of concern for the safety of the commander, in fact, he hoped to have an air battle with the Chinese Air Force in the airspace of Lushan, shooting down one or more Chinese planes, and it was by no means his habit to return empty-handed.

The reconnaissance plane circled in the air, turned back again, and flew from north to south along the Nanxun line.

Okamura Ninji's cold gaze stared at the ground through the porthole, he had observed twice before, but this time he still observed very carefully, and even carefully confirmed which hill the national army had set up an observation post, Okamura Ninji tried to find a clue from the chaotic and complex battlefield to solve the current dilemma.

The national army on the ground also discovered the reconnaissance plane that had turned back, and from time to time there were heavy machine gun shots into the air, but this did not pose a threat to Kobayashi, the ace pilot, at all.

Kobayashi's reconnaissance plane maintained a certain altitude, first flew from north to south along the Nanxun Railway, reached the sky over De'an, then turned northwest, and then flew south to north along the Ruiwu Road.

"Kobayashi-san, lower the altitude, please lower the flight altitude," Okamura Ninji suddenly shouted.

"Nani? Lower the flight altitude? Kobayashi was startled and hurriedly explained, "Your Excellency Commander, there is a steep and complicated mountain area below, and once it encounters a turbulence, the plane may lose control or even crash" Kobayashi no matter how good he is flying is that he will never dare to venture low in this complex mountainous area.

"I can't care so much, immediately reduce the flight altitude"

Okamura Ninji seemed to have discovered something and insisted on lowering the flight altitude.

Seeing that Okamura Ninji had already given the order, Kobayashi had no choice but to push the control stick to lower the flight altitude, and at this time, Kobayashi's reconnaissance plane happened to fly over the Bijia tip and the Lion Rock area, that is, the place where the Maruyama Brigade was almost surrounded by Xue Yue's corps last time, Okamura Ninji finally discovered a flaw in the national army.

More than a month ago, the Maruyama Brigade tried to intercept the back road of the Xue Yue Corps, but was almost surrounded by the Xue Yue Corps in turn, and the two armies fought fiercely for several days in the area of Bijiajian and Lion Rock, and finally the Maruyama Brigade was heavily damaged and was forced to retreat.

As early as the beginning of the outbreak of the Jiujiang Campaign, the aviation scouts reported to Okamura Ningji, claiming that the defensive formation of the national army on the Jiujiang De'an battlefield was in the shape of an outer figure-eight, with the left wing relying on the Ruiwu Highway and the right wing relying on the Nanxun Railway.

But at that time, this gap was only a few kilometers away, and it was not suitable for interspersing at all.

But now, first through the Maruyama brigade and then through the tug-of-war of the Honma Masaharu Division, the left-wing national army continued to move outward, and as a result, the gap in the middle of this outer figure became larger and larger, and Okamura Ninji roughly estimated from the air that this gap had exceeded at least ten kilometers, which already had the conditions for intersperse

If a detachment is sent through this gap and captures Mahuiling and even De'an in one fell swoop, the rear road of the national army will be completely cut off by the Japanese army, and the Xue Yue Corps in front of the Nanxun Railway and the Ruiwu Highway will definitely be shaken in its whole line.

"Yo West, Yo West" Okamura Ninji repeatedly confirmed that there were indeed no Nationalist troops stationed in the mountains below, so he was satisfied and ordered Kobayashi to raise the altitude, and then flew straight back to Nanjing.
