Yang Bangzi has no tears, the old blind man was seriously injured and carried down, the three battalions were full of calculations, even the cooks and the wounded were counted, there were dozens of people left, Yang Bangzi was bleeding in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, the little devil was beaten down these seven times, and the number of qi was exhausted.

The unpleasant smell in the valley wafted up, and when I asked, I knew that it was the little devil who was burning the corpse, and the devils who came to the stage to drag the dead corpses under the white flag just now, Yang Bangzi didn't take it seriously, but he often saw that in the devil's camp, some seriously injured people were also killed, and then he thought that the devil was going to run!

Connected the phone of the first battalion, the commander of the first battalion reported that the people he could still use now were added together, and there was only one more point, Yang Bangzi thought about it If the devils in the valley desperately broke through from Xingshutai, the first battalion could not stop it, and the closest unit to Xingshutai was the second battalion.

After asking the second battalion, they still had more than 400 people, Yang Bangzi ordered the second battalion to hand over the position to the people brought by Section Chief Gao Yufeng, and the entire second battalion drove to the position of the first battalion, and must block the devil's way east.

The task of defending the platform and the entire southern front was also handed over to the local troops who came up to replenish him, and he asked the artillery company to guard the high ground on the east side, and the engineer company and the guard company followed him to Xingshutai.

The way to the first camp is to bypass the small mill ditch in the north, cross the mountain beam to Menguan Village, and then go down the valley to Xingshutai. When I arrived at Xiaonianzigou, Yang Bangzi's ears turned again! Plane! It is not one or two that came, and the models were not light bombers and front-line destroyers, but also reconnaissance aircraft and transport aircraft.

Yang Bangzi asked the local troops in Xiaonianzigou to quickly hide, and he led people to stick to the ravine without stopping, and climbed to the mountain beam. He concluded that the focus of the bombing of the devil's plane must be in the area around Xingshutai. This side may also be a symbolic walk-through, under bombing and strafing. The west side of the north-south mountain beam is the blind spot of the plane coming from the east, so there is no need to hide.

The mountain beam of the small mill ditch is separated by a valley and confronts the mountain occupied by the devils, the mountain beam is slightly higher, one hundred and ten meters high, lying on the mountain beam can overlook the west side of the devil's entire position, although it is overlooking the position of the devil's position and the deployment of troops, but there is no artillery support, relying on these militia and fellow villagers alone. It's basically impossible to capture it.

Therefore, in addition to the battalions and companies belonging to the 20th Regiment, as well as the people who were integrated from the divisions brought by the senior section chief, the task of the other fellow villagers participating in the battle was to form an encirclement and enclose it from the outer line.

Yang Bangzi asked the soldiers to find shelter behind the mountain beams and take shelter, and rest on the spot, he observed what the devils were going to do with so many planes today.

Three bombers and three destroyers bombed and strafed the plateau at the southern end of the valley and the high ground on the west side, in retaliatory bombing of the area captured by the Eighth Route last night. However, Yang Bangzi did not see any troop movements and build-ups of the Japanese troops in the valley, which showed that it was a bombing. Not to support the offensive of the ground forces.

There was a fuss, and the six planes were pulled to the middle and high altitudes, hovering but not flying away, Yang Bangzi looked up and was a little puzzled, usually the devil plane usually flew back to the base after throwing off the bomb, what are you doing here today? A few minutes later, three heavy-bellied and twin-engined transporters emerged from the clouds.

The devil's transport plane flew low and dropped dozens of parachutes over the valley, and there was only a breeze in the valley in the morning, and the devil's pilot also thought that the Eighth Route Army had no anti-air firepower, so he came to a low-flying field and dropped the supplies directly on the marked plots in the valley.

The camp of the devils in the valley is still filled with the stench of burning corpses, and there is still green smoke on the fire, as soon as this parachute is opened, the devil's base camp is lifeless, and many devils come out of the ground at once! The ability of this civil engineering operation is not low! Trenches, foxholes, and traffic trenches were dug in the entire valley where they could be dug, no wonder Yang Bangzi couldn't see anyone in the binoculars just now, and they all went into the holes.

There were a few parachutes hanging under the round thing, and after looking at Yang stick for a while, I realized that it was a gasoline barrel! The devil has no more trucks and tanks, so what do you need gasoline barrels for? Looking at the devils running to the place where the gasoline barrels fell like crazy, and huddled together, Yang Bangzi understood that there was water in this gasoline barrel! The little devils are crazy with thirst!

It was indeed water, and when Kuroda Osa reported the battle situation to the front army in the early morning, he asked for an airdrop of ammunition, and especially emphasized the airdrop of some drinking water, without which his soldiers would not be able to go far on the way to break through.

As soon as the supplies were in hand, Kuroda immediately ordered the distribution of ammunition, controlled drinking water, and ensured that every soldier could drink it.

When the Kuroda Wing was unscrupulously distributing supplies, the group of planes in the sky, a few more planes came down, and they swooped down towards the position of the Eighth Route Army in Xingshutai, diving, dropping bombs, pulling up, circling, and diving, dropping bombs, pulling up, this is a decent aerial strike routine.

Yang Bangzi looked at it for a while, counted, and within 20 minutes, at least hundreds of aerial bombs were hit on the side of Xingshutai, and were swept back and forth by six destroyers, and then the Japanese infantry artillery began to shell again on the position on the south side of Xingshutai, which was the artillery shells that had just been dropped in the air.

The high-altitude planes flew away one after another, and several planes on the direction of Xingshutai also shook their wings and flew into the air, which was also ready to withdraw, and the artillery fire of the devils on the ground was connected, and Yang Bangzi was also ready to leave for Menguan Village, just got up, his ears moved again, this time it was not east, but southeast, he seemed to hear the sound of the plane engine again!

Immediately let the soldiers who were lining up lie down! He lay down and looked at the sky to the southwest with his telescope, and sure enough, slowly, a group of black spots appeared from the clouds, one, two, three?????? Sixteen! This and just now those planes did not take off from one base!

As soon as they emerged from the clouds, the sixteen planes made a half-circle and swooped down diagonally with their fuselages in turn, not towards Xingshutai, but towards the mountains on the east side of the valley! "Whereabouts!" Yang Bangzi suddenly flashed such a place name in his mind!

The one-kilometer-long mountain beam on the east side is currently occupied by the Japanese army, separated by the cliff, and the mountains to the south are controlled by us, and a north-south mountain beam to the east stretches to the river between Xingshutai and the Shahe River, which was originally the defense area of the second battalion, and was just handed over to the Yilai guerrilla brigade and militia in the early hours of this morning.

Yang Bangzi considered that the devil would go all out to attack Xingshutai, and then go along the river to Wumu Shu to join the reinforcements, and the area around the road was no longer the main battlefield, but the rear of the front-line position, so it was handed over to the local comrades to defend.

The first batch of planes of the devils now looks like they are airdropping supplies and doing deceptive bombing, the purpose is to attract the attention and main forces of the Eighth Route Army to the side of Xingshutai, the devils made a time difference, and after the airdrop of materials, they left less than an hour to distribute ammunition to the ground troops to eat and drink, and then the second batch of planes came to assist the Kuroda Wing to break through the gap!

Sure enough, as soon as the plane in the sky swooped down, the devils on the ground also began to gather, and the devil soldiers of the brigade began to climb the mountain beam on the east side of the valley, and the devil artillery fire at the bend of the road in the north also began to turn the muzzle and bombard to the southeast! A large cloud of smoke in the southeast direction covered half of the sky at once!

Yang Bangzi was about to look at the map, and he wasn't sure if there was a path he didn't know how to do. The map he had in hand did not mark that there was a path leading to the southeast in the area between the head of the village and Xingshutai and the lower road, and at this time, even the ghost soldiers on the high ground opposite him had left their positions and moved to the east high ground!

It seems that the devils have been prepared for a long time, on the surface they are all hiding in bunkers and trenches and lifeless, as soon as the planes drop supplies, they are actually going to retreat signals, and as soon as the second batch of planes appears, the devils on the ground are equivalent to receiving the general retreat order, and the whole line begins to move to the southeast.
