The Japanese participated in the bombing this time. It is a relatively old-fashioned aircraft with two wings. Maybe it was to bully the defenders of Jiangyin Fortress that there was no air force, so this old fighter that should have entered the exhibition hall was also taken out by the Japanese.

Although the four divisions dispatched by the Cadet Corps this time have some reservations in terms of equipment level, their characteristics are still undoubtedly evident compared with the elite of the national army of the same era, such as the high-power searchlights that even the all-German armament divisions are not equipped with many at present.

As soon as Ouyang Yun took over the defense of the fortress, he began to point fingers and make angry fingers, Wang Yifu was quite disdainful at first, thinking that it was a standard nouveau riche face. However, after the victory in the air defense battle that night, he realized that the young general was not without a purpose, and that he had launched a purge campaign in the defense area with such fanfare, so for the sake of this evening.

Although the work of the student army and the anti-traitor team organized by the Jiangyin County Government was very vigorous, it seemed that they had achieved little success. Because, just a quarter of an hour before the Japanese planes were about to resist the fortress, two bonfires suddenly lit on the beach where the main anchorage of the main ships of the former national navy was located.

At a very moment, the air defense mobilization order has gone down, and there is a target guide in such a critical place, standing at the lookout in front of the Huangshan Fort, this scene is in the bottom of his eyes, Wang Yifu can't help but look at Ouyang Yun next to him, and said in his heart: It seems that the anti-traitor action of the Xuebing Army is also thunder and rain, look, hasn't it been succeeded by those traitors and spies?

Ouyang Yun didn't have the heart to observe other people's faces at the moment, he just held a telephone and calmly wanted to communicate with the air defense units one by one, cheering up and cheering for the commanders and fighters of the Cadet Corps at the forefront.

The timing of the two campfires was too coincidental, and the targets were so precise. If the main force of the fleet remained in place, then, using the cover of night, the Japanese bomber group would have been able to fight the enemy without any threat to itself.

"Ouyang Yun's command level is no better! Is it because of the youth, at this time, it is time to call the fleet, it is always good to let them be prepared. He cheered up his subordinates vigorously, did he still expect 'the blind cat to catch the dead mouse'? Wang Yifu thought like this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, of course, he was not for Ouyang Yun, but for the current war situation: Although Little Japan is a country of projectiles, after all, it has been more than 200 years since the whole army was suppressed, and there is enough time to accumulate, and the current combat power is no longer comparable to China! This is obviously a defensive war, and China belongs to the righteous side, but its skills are not as good as others, so it can only be beaten passively......

Just when Wang Yifu was thinking wildly, the sound of the fighter engine had already sounded in his ears, and a few minutes later, as the first explosion sounded on the river surface - the explosions came one after another, in the firelight, Lang flowers splashed, making the entire river surface become as bright as day in an instant - this was the first round of exploratory bombing by the Japanese aircraft, this wave of attacks, the Japanese army dropped thirty bombs, but the effect was little - Wang Yifu, who woke up, was surprised to find that he didn't know when. The fleet, which had been in that bombed area, disappeared!

"What's going on?" Speaking of which, he had been keeping an eye on the river, and after dinner, he saw the fleet moored there, but now why was it gone? He turned his head to look at Ouyang Yun, however, he didn't see Ouyang Yun's expression clearly, he was immediately stabbed by the light that suddenly lit up next to him and closed his eyes.

Forty or fifty pillars of light were cast into the sky from three directions, and the Japanese planes that had only heard their voices and could not see their shadows appeared one after another—at this time, the Japanese bomber group had already discovered that what they had just bombed was only an empty river—and the fleet that was still parked there during the day had all disappeared! "Eight squares! We were fooled! The clever Japanese pilot immediately felt that something was wrong, and the commander directly ordered: "Return home!" Return! ”

The group began to rise up, trying to get out of the area, but by this time, it had been more than a minute since they were caught by the anti-aircraft searchlights, which was enough time for the air defense soldiers of the Cadet Corps to cover them with the crosshairs on the anti-aircraft weapons.

The sound of "empty ......" is endless!" Rumble! "A brilliant spark suddenly burst into the sky, and an enemy plane was hit by an anti-aircraft gun, which immediately exploded into fragments.

"Well played!" Wang Yifu and several officers and men of the teaching regiment couldn't help but shout. Then, he turned his head to look at Ouyang Yun, and suddenly felt ashamed. In terms of age, this person is about ten years younger than himself, but his performance today is much more mature than himself-no wonder he behaves like he has a plan in his chest, it turns out that he has a plan for a long time-Wang Yifu thought so, and he had forgotten that just now, when he evaluated Ouyang Yun, he still used the comment that he was too young.

The first air defense battle of the Cadet Army in Jiangyin Fortress lasted only about a quarter of an hour. The Japanese bomber group was caught off guard, and they did not think about dealing with anti-aircraft fire, and after dropping four fighters, they returned home in disgrace.

When the sky returned to the darkness before the battle again, Ouyang Yun listened to the report of his subordinates about the situation, sat down and began to measure and draw on the river defense map. Wang Yifu stood next to him, watching him very skillfully carry out the homework on the map, and his admiration in his heart was even stronger, and when he saw Liu Zheliang coming over with a bowl of noodle soup, he took it in person, put it on Ouyang Yun's left hand, and said, "General, your dinner." "Because he was busy with combat affairs, Ouyang Yun hadn't eaten until now." Okay, let it go! He replied casually, bowed his head, and drew a straight line with a blue pen just now.

Wang Yifu stood aside and looked carefully, and suddenly said, "General, are you arranging a coastal defense line against the Japanese fleet?" ”

"Yes," Ouyang Yun raised his head, only then did he realize that it was him, and he was a little surprised: "Head Wang, why haven't you gone to rest yet?" There will be no more fighting tonight. ”

For tonight's battle situation, Wang Yifu also judged it this way. However, Xu was out of the intention of comparison, but he said: "Are you so sure? ”

Ouyang Yun put down the pen, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl, and said, "Of course." Today's battle was a successful ambush for the Japanese army, and they will certainly review it when they go back tonight, and then they will come up with a set of operational plans for our air defense forces. Tomorrow, the focus of the engagement will not be on the river, but on our air defense positions. If the Japanese could not suppress our anti-aircraft fire on land, their bombardment of the fleet would be extremely limited. ”

"Commander, I think about the fleet. I saw them still there after dinner, why didn't they blink an eye? ”

"In the blink of an eye, it took us an hour to successfully displace—" A deep voice sounded at the door of the fort, and Chen Shaokuan, the head of the Navy of the National Army, walked in.

"Minister Chen!" Wang Yifu hurriedly saluted, Ouyang Yun also put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up, and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Chen Shaokuan was carrying two bottles of wine in his right hand, and he smiled: "You saved our fleet, of course I have to thank you." Haven't you eaten yet? It just so happened that I brought two bottles of good aged wine with me – even if it was my thank-you gift. ”

"You're welcome!" Ouyang Yun said, beckoned Liu Zheliang, asked him to cook the two dishes, and asked him to call Li Hansoul over.

Chen Shaokuan sat down, glanced at the Jiang Fang map on the table, looked at Ouyang Yun and asked, "What?" Worried about tomorrow's war? ”

Ouyang Yun put away the map and said with a smile: "I put it away if I didn't have anything to do." Although the scale of tonight's battle is not large, it has already exposed the strength of our army. With the temperament of the Japanese, tomorrow will definitely come back to the field, and tomorrow will be a difficult day. Did you see the air defense battle just now? Do you have any comments?! ”

Speaking of the topic, Chen Shaokuan's face became much more serious, and he said: "The performance of your army is very good, I happened to be in the Linjiang shelter forest at that time, and I was fortunate to see the performance of the first section of your army - the tactical literacy of the officers and soldiers is very high. Commander Ouyang, I have to admit that your army can repeatedly inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army in North China, and it is indeed very set! If our army can have the equipment of your army and reach the tactical level of your army, I think the Japanese will become a joke about the so-called destruction of China in three months! ”

"The minister praised our army too much," Ouyang Yun smiled: "We just luckily hit an ambush by the Japanese, and from tomorrow, this battle will not be so easy to fight." After all, our waterways are completely blocked and can only be passively defensive. If the Japanese army moves by sea and air, with the strength of our Cadet Army in the fortress, it will not be able to withstand the toss at all! ”

Compared with the Japanese army, there is a huge difference in strength between the Chinese navy and the Japanese army, and Ouyang Yun's pertinent words just hit the weakest point in Chen Shaokuan's heart, he frowned, and his face became unnatural.

Wang Yifu saw it next to him and interjected: "This is all because my country has been weak for too long, Minister Chen, don't get too angry, I think that as the front develops in depth, the Japanese army will lose its advantage in equipment because of the dispersion of troops." ”

Although no one said anything about the battle centered on Nanjing, insiders knew that the fall of Nanjing and even Jiangsu and Zhejiang was only a matter of time. The reason why it was still necessary to concentrate troops to resist was to delay the pace of the Japanese army's attack and give all localities in the interior and rear more time to prepare for war.

"After all, today is a victory, let's not talk about this uninteresting topic - drinking!" At this time, there happened to be a soldier who brought a few dishes up, and Chen Shaokuan said while opening the wine bottle.

Ouyang Yun glanced at them and said meaningfully: "No matter what the current situation is, I always believe that victory will belong to us sooner or later!" The key now is whether our entire nation has the courage to resist the war! Even if you fight to the bottom of the battle, you will never back down! I don't believe it, with a population of 40,000 in China, I can't defeat a small Japan with a population of only 70 million! Okay, drink and drink - Lao Li, Minister Chen brought two bottles of good wine over - it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone, so let Zheliang invite you here......"
