The transport planes in the air were like laying eggs, white umbrella flowers kept blooming in the air, and the engines of hovering fighters and bombers roared, waiting for orders.

"Bomber formations carry out fire support missions, bombing smoke bombs west to the river area."

The order of the commander of the air formation was heard over the intercom.

"Roger!"

……

With the roar of the engines, the bombers circled their descent altitude, and the bombardiers held binoculars and looked at the blurred ground.

"Zhang Dajiang, the smoke bombs are launched intensively, and then immediately withdraw and join me!"

Feng Ye squatted on the ground, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand and shouted loudly, he was now at least 800 meters away from the Nanbei River, and he could only vaguely see the swaying river.

"Gun grenades, smoke grenades!"

Zhang Dajiang put down the walkie-talkie and shouted, while gesturing and ordering the brothers to prepare to retreat.

"Red smoke, guys, good work!"

In the air, the bomber squad shouted, the wings swept through the air, cut through the air current, and with a beautiful turn, pounced towards the riverbank.

"Fast, fast, fast......"

At this time, Zhang Dajiang was running back with his brothers; The Americans' aerial bombardment was not so accurate, they were afraid of being swallowed by aerial bombs, that thing was too powerful.

"Tweet ......"

Perhaps the bomber formation received instructions to dive down one by one, reducing the altitude as much as possible, and with the movement of the bombardiers, one by one the bombs roared straight towards the river bank.

"Boom!"

The first lesson bomb exploded on the river bank, but it was a little far from the devil's position.

"Yaga!"

The aftermath of the explosion made the devil officers in the position turn pale, this is at least 500 pounds of aerial bombs, this kind of ferry improvised position will definitely not be able to resist.

"Boom, boom......"

With a screeching sound, the bombs kept breaking away from the shackles of the planes and exploded on the riverbank.

No screams were heard, explosions were heard all around the North and South Rivers.

"Rinse ......"

The mud and sand mixed with shrapnel unscrupulously hit everything around, and the wild grass, shrubs, and woods around the ferry could not withstand it at all, and they were bombarding and either flying into the sky or falling down.

"Get down, don't look up!"

The officers shouted that the bombers' bombs were so powerful that they could clearly feel the shaking of the earth from such a distance.

"Boom!"

The improvised pontoon bridge over the North and South rivers did not escape the bombs, and although the bombers did not deliberately bomb the pontoon bridge, they were still hit, and the river splashed and the pontoon bridge became part of the river.

"Colonel, after the bombardment, do you need fighter jets to use cannons to strafe?"

A shout came from the walkie-talkie.

"No thanks!"

Feng Yi picked up the walkie-talkie, under the simple fortifications here at the ferry, he felt that there was no need to strafe this level of bombardment, maybe his brothers just rushed to the position to be a corpse collection team.

"Squad as a unit, on!"

Feng Ye shouted and gave the order to attack.

"Don't be careless, be careful!"

The platoon leader muttered, reminding his brothers.

There was no answer, these were veterans who had fought several battles, and one by one they nodded, bent over, and raised their guns, and quickly approached the bombed crossing.

"Four hundred meters!"

"Huhuhu......"

As the officers raised their hands, the veterans' steps increased significantly, and one by one they bent down and ran, quickly approaching the position.

"Sudden ......"

Shots rang out at last, and the veterans of the attack opened fire on everything that was suspicious.

"Grenades!"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Whether it was a crater or a trench, grenades flew in, and in the explosion, soldiers entered the trench one by one.

"Ahhhhhhh......h

In the chaotic battlefield, the remaining devils staggered out from all over the place, with bright bayonets hanging from their rifles, and rushed towards the assault team with squeaks and screams.

"Sudden ......"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Amid the chaotic firing of Thomson and the M1 rifles, squad after squad entered the dilapidated positions until they emerged from the river.

"Commander, Wang Ning calls!"

The communications soldier bent down and ran to Feng Yi's side.

"Regiment commander, the second batch of airborne personnel has been assembled, and the ammunition and tools have been sorted out."

Wang Ning shouted in the walkie-talkie.

"Leave one company in place, and the rest of the personnel will immediately enter the No. 2 and No. 3 ferries to repair the field fortifications."

After Feng Ye finished speaking, there was no gunfire on the entire position, and there were not many complete corpses left by the Japanese army, most of them were in the form of parts and scattered on the position.

"Buzz ......"

Before dark, in successive waves of airborne landing, the entire commando team of more than 3,000 people was airborne, and a large amount of materials were piled up at the airborne landing site.

"Zhang Chuan, the area to the north of the No. 3 ferry port is in charge of your battalion."

"The area to the south of the No. 1 ferry port is in charge of Min Fei's 1st battalion; In the middle of this, I personally took the second battalion to defend it. ”

"We seized the rear road of the Japanese army, this news cannot be hidden, the 18th Division has an independent field heavy artillery unit, they also have a large number of artillery, we must be prepared to be bombed; I hope you haven't forgotten how we were bombed. ”

……

Night was about to fall, Feng Ye held an operational meeting in the improvised trenches, and asked the three battalion commanders to immediately build field fortifications, starting from the ferry to the airborne field, the two-kilometer area must become their battlefield, and defending the ferry is not simply not to let the enemy cross the river, and the troops are placed on the front line of the ferry, and the casualties will be very large.

"Boom, boom!"

In the light of piles of bonfires, the sound of explosions kept sounding on the east bank of the Nanbei River, not the Japanese artillery was bombing, but the brethren of the commando team were blowing up potholes with explosives.

"Battalion commander, why didn't you blow up the bridge?"

On the position of the second battalion, a recruit pointed to the improvised pontoon bridge on the North and South rivers and asked Wang Ning.

"Why do you want to blow it up?"

Wang Ning pursed his lips and asked this recruit.

"If you blow up the devil, you won't be able to get by!"

The veteran said as a matter of course.

"The Japanese army has an engineer wing, you look at this river, the narrowest part is less than a hundred meters, how long does it take for their sappers to build a pontoon bridge? Perhaps before their round of artillery bombardment is over, their engineering units will be able to set foot on the east bank; It's better to stay, so at least we know where to focus on defending. ”

Wang Ning smiled, the remaining two pontoon bridges were actually the offensive passages left for the Japanese army, and he even saw in his mind the picture of the corpses of the Japanese soldiers constantly falling from the bridge into the river.

"General, the Chinese commandos have gained a foothold on the east bank and are hurrying to build fortifications, and they have not yet been attacked!"

In the new Pingyang, Paterno took the telegram and reported to Stilwell.

"Huh?"

This situation made Stilwell a little puzzled, and the Japanese army was a little too slow to react.

"Whether the plan continues or not, Unit 5307 is ready, and in ten hours, they will be airborne on the West Bank."

Paterno was also a little worried in his heart, if he had known that the airborne landing would be so smooth, then he would definitely arrange the first wave of 5307 troops to be airborne.

"Change the location and let Unit 5307 be airborne in Area 2."

Stilwell shook his head, pointing to the area northeast of Waruban; Now that the line between the North and South Rivers has become the focus, it is airborne on the west bank at this time, and there is a high chance that it will become a live target for the Japanese army.
