In the midst of their laughter, the artillery of the artillery position was quickly covered with camouflage nets, and one by one false cannons were erected in an open space, and shell boxes were piled up everywhere. Around, hundreds of anti-aircraft guns were ready under the camouflage net, just waiting for the Japanese planes to fly.

"It's all ready!"

"Don't move, the plane can't see."

Among the soldiers lying on the ground, one voice after another shouted, cheering for these soldiers who had never experienced air raids and telling them to take precautions.

During the preparations, the sound of the plane's motor appeared in the listening machine, and the Japanese reconnaissance plane flew overhead.

"Heavy, shoot down the reconnaissance plane!"

Shouts came from the "artillery" position, and immediately dozens of light machine guns roared, spewing out tongues of fire, bullet chains, and steel whips, and pumped into the reconnaissance planes in the sky.

"Look, that's an artillery position!"

The pilot of the reconnaissance plane also saw a "cannon" and a busy figure in the machine-gun fire below, and then the message flew out.

Just as the message was being sent, the pilot suddenly felt a shock to the fuselage, and then, smoke rose from the nose of the plane, and the engine howled and lost its ability to work.

"Not good! We've been shot! ”

The pilot shouted, trying to control the plane to pull up, and staggered away from the target, heading off into the distance.

Watching the smoke-emitting planes get lower and lower, a burst of cheers erupted from the position, and the fear of the plane disappeared at this moment.

What is there to be afraid of what a machine gun can deal with? The idea came to the minds of all the fighters when they saw the smoking plane.

"Look, two clouds are popping up!"

One of the warriors whispered.

"I can't run, that's the pilot who parachuted, and that's the position of the 9th Brigade, I didn't run."

The other fighter looked at the parachute in the distant sky and said calmly.

A message from the Japanese reconnaissance plane has already been sent. The target was confirmed, and the bombers immediately notified the attack planes of the direction, and the group roared, slightly adjusted its direction, and pounced on the artillery position.

They may never have dreamed of it, there. It was a deliberate attempt to attract enemy bombardment, so as not to fall into the lurking army when the plane fell, where there were no troops, just anti-aircraft artillery and fake artillery, some cannons made of wood.

The anti-aircraft artillery was ready, and the moment the listening machine reported the altitude and direction of the aircraft, the bombardment began.

The Japanese plane, which was flying, suddenly saw clouds of smoke coming out of front of it, and was shocked. They all shouted desperately to pull up the plane, trying to get out of the airspace of death that they already knew.

It's a pity, where can they escape the airspace of death that has been drawn? In the sound of the bang, the explosion of the shells, one plane after another was hit and smoked, and one plane after another exploded in the air, and in just a few minutes, the entire flight formation did not miss the net. Neither the attack planes nor the bombers expected that this place would be subjected to anti-aircraft fire from the entire army. Like a moth, it swooped into the air defense zone and was left here.

Smoking planes, the fighters would not let them fall, under the chase of a dense network of anti-aircraft machine guns, machine guns, and anti-aircraft artillery. One after another exploded in the air.

The violent detonation shook the sky, and the roar was like the sky falling, which made the defenders of Huai'an terrified, and Miyake Koji only felt the real fear at this time, and the reinforcements were afraid that they would not come. The other side even has anti-aircraft fire, so is the plane still useful? Is reinforcement still useful?

"Yaga! Let me see how strong the advance army really is! ”

Miyake Mitsuji was full of anger and ordered all his departments to prepare to fight to the death against the advance army in this area.

Get rid of the goshawk in the air, shelling, start again.

However, this will be a concentrated area, and hundreds of artillery guns will fire effectively, bombarding within a radius of one kilometer, which will be very useful [Ao Dan tears through the opponent's defense and opens a gap.

The violent shock made the Japanese soldiers in that area miserable, the periscope was all destroyed, and in the tunnel, only the light of the flashlight shone in a small place, and the Japanese soldiers were dizzy, their hands and feet were numb, and they were shocked by the violent shock and their chests were depressed, and it was difficult to calm down.

Tiangu, after receiving Miyake Mitsuji's message for help, the advance army of Zhilu Dao was afraid that it was about to launch a full-scale attack, so it accelerated the speed of the march, and let armored vehicles, tanks, and trucks rush to Huai'an first, attracting the enemy's firepower and reducing the pressure on Huai'an.

His troops were divided into two sections, except for the necessary baggage and infantry, all the trucks, tanks, and armored vehicles were full of people, and the road was full of smoke and dust, and rushed to Siyang first.

At this time, the army in Siyang was ready to send reinforcements, and when the plane was shot down in Tiangu, three kilometers away from Siyang, the army lurked on both sides, broke open its pockets, and waited for the arrival of the army in Tiangu.

Qu Jungang was still quiet there, eating and resting, and before the smoke and dust of the Japanese army had dissipated, he began to rest, and was not in a hurry to march towards Suqian.

At this time, Qu Jungang did not know about Ludao, Suqian, and a large number of materials, all of which were looted by the Japanese army in Gaoyou and Yangzhou, and a large number of cultural relics and gold and silver were parked in the military camp in Suqian.

The speed of the truck was much faster, and after Tiangu divided his troops, the convoy rushed into the ambush circle with smoke and dust all the way.

Li Rongbin's two divisions, which were guarding on the left, were hidden in the mountains and forests four kilometers away from the road to Siyang, and when they heard the scouts report the arrival of the Japanese army, they reported the situation to Sun Tao.

Sun Tao looked at the number of reinforcements, frowned, turned his head and asked: "Captain, the reinforcements from Suqian are all mechanized troops, there are tanks, armored vehicles and trucks, and the number of people does not exceed one brigade, which does not match the number reported by Qu Jungang there, do you see if they have found an ambush?" ”

Dong Ku also felt strange, Qu Jun just reported in person, there would be no mistake, the column marched, the number was not much different, the whole number marched, roughly estimated what the scale of the road is, it is said that there will not be a brigade to advance, is it a temptation?

Zuo Boyang smiled indifferently and said: "I think the enemy in Suqian is too rampant, in order to relieve the pressure on Huai'an, the troops are divided to help, the vanguard mechanized march is fast, the infantry is still behind, and it is estimated that it will take more than an hour to enter the ambush circle." ”

"Yes, that makes sense."

Dong Ku nodded in agreement, "It is estimated that this is the case, if our whereabouts are exposed, the Japanese army will not let a brigade with artillery, tanks and armored vehicles enter the encirclement, and it should be the first to relieve the pressure on Huai'an." ”

After speaking, he glanced at the map and said: "Let the new Sixth Division withstand the pressure, how can you also load the large troops behind, expand the encirclement, give up a range of ten kilometers, and avoid encounters with the Japanese army." ”

The moment the Japanese trucks arrived in the hands of Cui Gang of the New Sixth Division, they also arrived near Siyang, and they arrived at the position a few kilometers away.

After Cui Gang saw the telegram, he ordered the blockade to begin, and the mines along the way blew up the road, slowing down the speed of the Japanese army's march and reducing the damage caused by the head-on exchange of fire with the Japanese army.

The motorcycles that started suddenly raised smoke and dust, and marched towards Siyang, they had already faintly heard the sound of artillery, and they knew that a few pieces of the road had arrived at the battlefield, so they were staring at the front one by one, looking left and right, machine guns, and were in a state of fire at any time.

As they were marching, a cloud of blood mist floated up, and then the motorcycle lost control and plunged to the side of the road, and then overturned into a ditch, throwing the Japanese soldiers on the car far away.

"There's an ambush!"

With the squeak of brakes, a dozen motorcycles behind quickly stopped, machine guns pointed out, looking for targets, and before they could spot the enemy, the armored vehicles and tanks behind rumbled over.

"What kind of work!?"

A large Zuo, who was sitting in front of the command, poked his head out of the armored car and asked.

"There's an attack!"

"Attack?"

The big Zuo shrank his head, looked around, and then shouted, "It's almost time to reach Siyang here, and the attack is also a small force, keep moving!" ”

"Hayi!"

The Japanese soldiers were ordered to help up the wounded soldiers, and the motorcycles roared again and moved forward.

The big sa retracted the armored car and gave the order to move on.

In the grass, three fighters stared at the approaching motorcycle, and one of them whispered, "Blow up the motorcycle?" ”

"Don't."

Another soldier said: "It's an anti-tank mine, it's said to be powerful, it's a pity to blow up a motorcycle, blow up the big guy in the back, look at the muzzle on that guy, four or five machine guns, besides, you can't block the road by blowing up a motorcycle." ”

"Okay, just blow up the guy in the back."

During a brief consultation between the three of them, the motorcycle drove all the way past the place where the mine was bought, and suddenly drove towards the person in front.

The armored vehicles followed, rumbling forward, unaware that there were already mines waiting for them in front of them.

"Pull!"

The moment the first armored car arrived at the marked position, with a shout, a loud bang, the armored car was engulfed by the fire from below, the huge shock wave tore the armored car apart like a toy, the steel twisted, in the ensuing explosion, it overturned forward, the flames splashed everywhere, a perfect 360-degree front flip, smashed down the road.

"Enemy attack!"

The armored vehicles, tanks, and trucks behind all stopped, and in the shouting, the Japanese soldiers above jumped down one after another, holding their guns, and ran forward while searching the surroundings.

The motorcycle in front was startled by the loud noise, made an emergency stop, and looked around for a target.

"Gone."

A few dozen meters away, the three of them cheered quietly, crawled quietly, left there, and retreated into the distance.

The Japanese searched the surroundings in a panic, but they didn't see a single figure, obviously, this is a small group of troops, and the intention is naturally needless to say, it is just to delay their reinforcements.

"Keep going!"

Unable to search for the enemy, delayed for nearly 20 minutes, the Japanese army reluctantly returned to the car in the order, and then, the truck roared, out of the way, and a tank came up from behind, slowly pushing the wreckage that had extinguished the flames, but was still smoking, cleared the road, and continued on the road......
