Little devil front-line airfield.

The 22nd flying team Kuroki Kazusaku who came from afar did not have the pride of being an elite team.

"Kameyama-kun, in this operation, our 22nd Flying Squadron will follow your 75th Flying Squadron to lure out the air force of the Shina Expeditionary Force Cluster and destroy it." Kuroki said to Kameyama Kei of the 75 Flying Clan.

The power of the Mustang fighter is all too clear as Kuroki Nakazuo, who has fought in the skies over the Pacific Ocean.

"No problem, Kuroki-kun, the opportunity of the Third Flying Regiment to clear the shame of the snow is entrusted to you this time." Kameyama Zhongzuo, who hated the expeditionary force air force but was helpless, was obviously very excited about the arrival of Kuroki Zhongzuo and his party, and was not at all unhappy because he was acting as a bait.

Kuroda Hisafumi used his life to prove that Nakajima Kazuki was really a younger brother in front of the Mustang fighter, even if the other party was a group of Shina people who had been driving the Mustang fighter for a few days.

If the skills are inferior to others, Kameyama Zhongzuo will admit it himself, but the fighter is far worse than others, then he is really not convinced.

"Kameyama-kun, thank you for your hard work!" Kuroki stood up and bowed to Kameyama Nakazuo.

For the cooperation of these colleagues, Kuroki is really very grateful.

......

On the second line of defense, watching the group of little devils come to kill on a large scale.

The battalion commander on the position looked at the sky with a hopeful face, hoping to see the familiar Expeditionary Force fighter reappear.

As he expected, when the little devil fighter appeared, one after another expeditionary force Mustang fighters rushed out of the clouds!

Kuroki's 22nd Flying Team on the left was originally behind the Kameyama Flying Team, and when they saw the target appear, they sped up and quickly overtook the Kameyama Flying Team and rushed to the front.

"It's a new fighter." Colonel Howard looked at the Tempestine Fighter who had crossed the Nakajima Ichihabusa Fighter and pounced on it, although it was highly similar to the Hayabusa in appearance, but when Kuroki accelerated to the left of the sky, the soaring speed showed that it was a brand new fighter.

Howard remembered the information provided by Gao Jianwu, and sure enough, in terms of speed, the new fighter has improved a lot, which means that their engine technology has also improved by one generation.

There were many thoughts turning in his head, but Howard did not delay at all, and rushed directly towards a Hurricane fighter.

Kuroki Zhongzuo, who rushed to the front, couldn't help but sneer when he saw a Mustang fighter jet on the opposite side rushing towards him without any scruples.

"Yaga, you are really fearless for the ignorant. I thought Uncle Ben was driving Nakajima, so I'm going to cut you today." Kuroki laughed and muttered to herself.

Despite the fact that the opponent is flying a Mustang fighter, it is not inferior to its Temporal fighter in terms of performance, and even better.

But Kuroki is not afraid at all, because he has many opportunities against the Mustang fighter in the Pacific sea and air battle, and even he has shot down the Mustang fighter in the Zero fighter.

The slight gap between the Tempest and the Mustang Fighter Light can be made up for with a wealth of experience.

If you look at it from the ground, a Mustang fighter and a Mekaze fighter in the sky are almost straight towards each other, just like a medieval knight in a decisive battle against a gun.

….

The officers and men on the positions of the second line of defense watched the duel of fighters in the sky and couldn't help but sweat for the fighters on their side.

"Obediently, Ge Laozi fought so fiercely, is the little devil crazy ball" The battalion commander on the ground simply lay on the position to observe the battle in the sky.

He knew that until the air battle was over, the little devils on the ground would not attack. I always look up at my neck and have a headache.

It's better to lie on the ground and see it clearly. The two dueling fighters in the sky almost drove their speeds to more than 600 kilometers per hour.

These few kilometers are almost a blink of an eye. The little devil Kuroki was the first to fire, but before he could fire, Colonel Howard had already expected him to take the chance

The head pulled up and dodged the wave unscathed.

Howard, who knows the tactics of the little devil well, moves skillfully and pulls up the battle position to seize the high point.

Kuroki, the little devil, missed with a blow, and almost pulled up the nose of the plane and flew high into the air with Howard's rhythm, but the speed of the Mustang fighter was one point faster than that of the Hurricane fighter, and Howard took the lead in occupying the high point and rolled into a flat flight, firing at the oncoming Kuroki!

Kuroki rolled on one side in the ascension, and the fighter plane left its original position in an instant, making Howard's wave of attacks also fail.

The two fighters suddenly separated as if they had been bounced off, and became two different directions.

"It's kind of interesting, it's an opponent." Colonel Howard saw that the other party's control was skillful and silky, and knew that he had encountered the master of the little devils.

This aroused his fighting spirit even more, he also controlled the fighter plane to make a big turn, refound the direction of Kuroki's fighter, and didn't wait for the scope to lock on to Kuroki's fighter, and fired a series of bullets in anticipation!

This made Kuroki have to continue to roll and dodge, so that Colonel Howard finally took the initiative to attack, chasing Kuroki's fighter plane and firing non-stop!

Although it is said that the Hurricane fighter, it shows excellent maneuverability. But in front of Colonel Howard, these are nothing more than pediatrics.

The Mustang fighter he piloted also had excellent maneuverability, and he could follow Kuroki all the way to chase him, so that Kuroki had no chance to resist at all.

In this extremely passive situation, Kuroki still dodged for nearly ten minutes before being shot out of black smoke by Colonel Howard, and the maneuverability of the Hurricane fighter was brought into full play by Kuroki.

However, in terms of speed, it is inferior to the Mustang fighter, so that Howard has the upper hand and is not capable of pulling away from the fate of being chased and attacked!

Make the shady pretend to be even more deadly. His 22 flying team was completely targeted this time. Gao Jianwu's intelligence system perfectly predicted their arrival.

Not only 46 Mustang fighters were sent to besiege the 22 flying squadron. In addition, 30 Mustang fighters were sent to attack the 75 flying squadron that acted as decoys.

So when Colonel Howard and Lu Xingguo and their 16 elite pilots in the clouds selected their own Hurricane fighter opponents.

30 fighters also poured out and pounced directly on the 75th flying team. The second battle in the air was fought over the position of the second line of defense.

This second battle lasted more than an hour to end, and in the end all the little devil fighters were shot down.

….

On the side of the expeditionary force cluster, Colonel Howard and they were also shot down 5 fighters, but fortunately they all parachuted safely and the personnel were unscathed.

Lu Xingguo's 16 pilots used 2 to 1. In the end, 8 little devil fighters were beaten down, and two were lost on their side. In terms of the battle loss ratio, this data is very good, but in terms of the actual process, it is worth Lu Xingguo and their experience to sum up a lot.

After all, the use of fighters with superior performance and the numerical advantage of 2 to 1 still have battle damage, which shows that there is still a considerable distance between everyone and the elite pilots of the little devils in terms of air combat experience.

If it weren't for Gao Jianwu exerting his influence and pulling Colonel Howard into the water to serve as the main force in this air battle.

I'm afraid that the casualties of the expeditionary force's cluster air force this time will be very heavy, and it can be regarded as the best ending if it can play a 1:1 exchange ratio.

However, for the Expeditionary Force Cluster Air Force, the most severe test has passed, and the little devil's Hurricane fighter was originally an experimental model, and their current production capacity is not yet able to deploy a large number of flying teams on the Shenzhou side.

The main opponents of the expeditionary force group air force are the Nakajima Ichi and Type 97 fighters, the two most common fighters of the little devil.

After this stage of aerial combat, the number of air force fighters in the expeditionary force cluster has been reduced from more than 100 to more than 90. Although the number of fighters has shrunk considerably, in terms of combat effectiveness, the air force of the expeditionary force cluster is already very different from the original group of rookies.

At least in

In the face of the little devil's Nakajima, the main fighter, the expeditionary force cluster air force has been able to firmly gain the upper hand and play a very high battle loss ratio.

The aerial battles in the sky above Xiaoxiang have constantly beaten the little devils and the supporting air force of the 11th Army to the ground, and the air force of the expeditionary force cluster has sharpened its minions.

......

"Commander Fang, we'll leave here tomorrow. Although the Commander's Department of the Ninth Theater is not interested in us, we can't just sit here and sit idly by. Our expeditionary force group chooses to go north tomorrow to attack the little devil's Western Route Army." Gao Jianwu saw that the little devil air force had been exhausted, and felt that it was time to go north to deal a fatal blow to the 11th Army, so he found Commander Fang to say goodbye.

"Commander Gao, you really don't need to be in such a hurry to go to the battlefield. After all, Shangfeng has no order, and if he does this, it will be easy to be criticized." Commander Fang didn't expect that he had just been stable for a few days, and Gao Jianwu and the others were leaving.

always said that seeing Gao Jianwu and their air force in the air, Commander Fang felt very relieved. After all, with such a strong army by his side, even if a little devil fights him, he is not afraid.

Don't look at Gao Jianwu's troops and the number of troops under his command are about the same, but Commander Fang knows it in his own heart, even if he has two or three times the number, he may not be able to fight.

Seven or eight heavy artillery regiments and more than a dozen tank battalions have their own air force flying teams, and Commander Fang feels that with 400,000 troops in the Ninth Theater, he may not necessarily win against Gao Jianwu, an expeditionary force cluster.

"What else do you have to fight devils, do you have any orders?" Gao Jianwu said with a smile, "No one in our expeditionary force can stop us, and after fighting the 11th Army, we will cross the Yangtze River and fight all the way back."

….

Gao Jianwu's words were lightly written, but his domineering spirit was revealed, which made Commander Fang a little envious, to be honest, he really wanted to do this with Gao Jianwu and them. Instead of staying here aggrieved, he is restricted and suspicious everywhere.

As the commander of a ragtag army, he was fed up with all kinds of anger. But he doesn't have Gao Jianwu's arrogance and freedom to go if he wants.

"Since this is the case, then I wish Commander-in-Chief Gao a hundred victories." Commander Fang smiled bitterly, "Contemptible people still have to live here."

"Commander Fang, after we knock out the little devil's air force this time, and then solve the 40th Division of the Western Route Army on the right side of the little devil, we will march east and wait for the opportunity to eat the main forces of the 68th and 116th Divisions and the 34th and 58th Divisions in the middle of the little devil, and defeat half of the 11th Army of the little devil.

In this way, this place in Hengzhou should be very safe." Gao Jianwu comforted that in another time and space, this general who lacked troops and was clamped down by his superiors commanded a weak brigade and still blocked the little devil for more than a month!

is indeed a man.

If he should have no room to play in this time and space, Gao Jianwu will pack up most of the attacking little devils before he can rest assured that he will go north.

"I hope so, Commander Gao. When do you leave tomorrow, Fang will personally see you off." Commander Fang nodded.

After seeing the strength of the expeditionary force cluster, he didn't believe that the little devil could take advantage of the Gao Jianwu expeditionary force cluster, but thinking that Chief Xue of the Nine Station District would sit back and reap the benefits, Commander Fang was still a little worried in his heart.

"Commander Fang is polite, it doesn't have to be like this, let's just set off by ourselves tomorrow."

"It's nothing. You are fighting bloody battles ahead, and this is as it should be."

......

Department of the Commander of the Ninth Theater.

Hearing that Gao Jianwu and their expeditionary force group were going north and no longer staying in Hengzhou, not only did Chief Xue be a little stunned, but even Chief of Staff Zhao Zili was also a little surprised.

"Gao Jianwu's expeditionary force cluster, what is this trying to do?" Chief Xue frowned, and asked softly to his staff and the chief of staff who did not want to see but was dangling in front of him at any time.

"Chief Xue, I'm afraid they want to make a fuss about propaganda again." Chief of Staff Zhao said with some uncertainty.

Although he asked Chief Xue to join the expeditionary force cluster to the defense of Tanzhou before the war, he didn't want Gao Jianwu and them to make contributions, but still hoped to use the hands of the little devils to clean up the unruly expeditionary force cluster.

However, Chief Xue didn't pay attention to his suggestion at all, and the expeditionary force cluster sent its own air force to participate in the war, beating the little devil's air force half to death, and once again won a huge reputation in the country.

"Chief Xue, I don't think it's as simple as Chief of Staff Zhao said, the expeditionary force cluster has been famous for a long time, and it doesn't need this reputation to do anything at all, it won't shake the reputation of their number one strong army." A senior staff member jumped out and said.

"If you talk about fame and publicity, it is enough for them to dispatch the air force to fight, and the results they have achieved in the two battles in the air have reached more than half of the results of the Flying Tigers, which is enough to be proud of."

….

In the two air battles, because of the second battle, Colonel Howard and they secretly participated in the battle, so they did not make any noise at all, and even the local snakes like Chief Xue and Chief of Staff Zhao did not know that the second air battle was mainly fought by Howard.

Although the Chinese people don't know much about what a Hurricane fighter is. However, more than 160 fighters and bombers were shot down at the two air meetings, and all of these were witnessed by the officers and men of the forward position and calculated by those who were attentive, and even made the battalion commander on that position make a fortune, because most of the little devils who parachuted from the downed fighters were captured by him who were quick to send people to capture them.

Coupled with the heavy artillery wing that bombed the little devils, this was already the fourth big victory of the expeditionary force after returning home.

Even the headmaster's military command department had to pinch his nose and order a commendation

As for the propaganda organs of the Eighth Route Headquarters and the General Border District Headquarters, they continued to publicize the news of the victory to the people throughout the country through newspapers and radio stations, thus once again setting off an upsurge of discussion among the expeditionary forces in the country.

With this publicity, the upsurge of young talents who had been somewhat stagnant to go to Jindi rose again.

This time, the pilots who had no planes in various places and were idle all set off for Jindi one by one, and some of them were anxious to come directly to the land of Sanxiang.

As an expeditionary force cluster with its own most powerful fleet in the country, it is simply extremely tempting for these immortal pilots.

Especially those veteran players who had classmates or colleagues who defected to them in the early days, they regretted it so much that their intestines were blue.

However, when they thought that Gao Jianwu's expeditionary force air force was still in short supply of pilots, they couldn't wait to put on their wings and fly directly to the expeditionary force cluster.

Now all the young people in the country who are literate and have the opportunity to come into contact with newspapers and periodicals or listen to the radio do not know that in the cluster of the expeditionary force, with the best equipment, to beat the strongest little devils!

The expeditionary force cluster used one victory after another to tell the people at home that they could not only beat the little devils abroad with nowhere to escape, but now they are also beating the little devils at home.

This dealt a heavy blow to the capitulation faction and the Han women, and greatly encouraged the confidence of the country to win.

So to say that Gao Jianwu and they led the team north this time for publicity, this is too visionless.

Zhao Zili's old face flushed, and he also knew that his speculation was a bit unreasonable.

"Chief Xue, is there a possibility that it is the Expeditionary Force Cluster, which was originally going north to return to their headquarters?" Another aide suggested a possibility with some hesitation.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, they found that his proposal might be the truth of the facts. Whether it's conspiracy theories or the limelight, these reasons are too far-fetched.

The expeditionary force cluster originally came from the Jindi side, and now they are killing it back through the way, isn't that a natural thing?

Because if it is said to occupy an area, the part of the Pearl River Delta is far richer than the land of Sanxiang. Plus that place, they took it back from the little devils.

So even if the principal's side doesn't approve of it, they just stand there, and it can be regarded as justified in the eyes of the people.

….

And now the headmaster clearly doesn't have it

If there is a way to solve the expeditionary force cluster, then it is inevitable that the expeditionary force cluster will replace the Guangdong army as a new local force.

Relatively speaking, that place is a little easier to defend and a little harder to attack.

"If the expeditionary force cluster is just following the path. So will they take the initiative to fight the little devils before leaving?" Chief Xue's brows suddenly expanded, because this would be a great thing for him, and he didn't have to worry about Gao Jianwu stirring up trouble here.

It would be even more perfect if you could clean up a little devil of two divisions by the way. Thinking of this, Chief Xue's heart became even more happy.

In any case, the expeditionary force group dealt with him the air threat of the little devils and a part of the heavy artillery troops, and stabilized the dangerous second line of defense.

Even if Chief Xue didn't say a word outside, he still had points in his heart.

"We don't know what they think right now. However, he thinks that if the Commander's Department can send a telegram requesting assistance to the Expeditionary Force Cluster, it is possible that they will accomplish this task." The staff member replied.

"It's even more likely if we take the initiative to solve some logistical burdens for them and improve the relationship."

After listening to this, Chief Xue pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind.

"Li Gaoshen, in your name, send a telegram to the expeditionary force cluster, and say that the Ninth War Zone will raise 100,000 catties of grain and 50 pigs for the expeditionary force cluster, and march north for the expeditionary force cluster to march north. You are solely responsible for the delivery of this matter, and if there are any other requests from the expeditionary force cluster, you can decide for yourself." Chief Xue said to the staff.

Chief of Staff Zhao subconsciously wanted to jump out and oppose it, but this time he really couldn't find a reason to object.

"Yes, Chief Xue, let's go down and operate this matter." Li Gao replied that he and Chief Xue were in the same faction, and they were both prosperous, so naturally they would not do anything that harmed Chief Xue's interests.

......

Gao Jianwu didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises. Although it is said that 100,000 catties of grain and 50 pigs are only two or three days' worth for the consumption of the expeditionary force's cluster army.

Compared to the supply of Commander Fang in Hengzhou, it was simply a bit stingy.

But he hadn't thought of anything like this before. All the personnel of the army marched with 7 days' rations, waiting for the capture of a wave of food baggage after the little devils were killed to replenish it.

For Gao Jianwu, he is not afraid that there are little devils in the places he passes by, but he is afraid that the number of little devils is too small, so it is impossible for too many seizures to pop up.

With the current scale of more than 50,000 people in the expeditionary force, there are not tens or hundreds of tons captured at a time, and it will not last for a few days at all.

This is also one of the reasons why Gao Jianwu did not dare to take away the expeditionary force cluster and drive straight in, wherever he went, if there were no big cities, he would not be able to supply the food and drink of this army at all.

The army rolled north, and after a long march of 3 days, they came to Ningyi, and Li Gao, who had been waiting for a long time, saw above.

"Commander-in-Chief Gao is good, the contempt is Li Xiazhong, the staff officer of the Major General of the Ninth Theater Command, on the order of Chief Xue, specially prepared 100,000 catties of grain and 50 pigs for the brothers of the expeditionary force cluster, and asked Commander-in-Chief Gao to laugh." Li Xiazhong said to Gao Jianwu with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, Chief Xue and all of you for your kindness, but you are ashamed to accept it disrespectfully." Gao Jianwu looked at Li Xiazhong wearing a major general's uniform, and after being polite, he directly accepted this batch of materials.

Then he led Li Xiazhong into his command tent.

"Thank you Chief Xue for your love, I didn't know that Li Gao was here, but Chief Xue had something to say?" Gao Jianwu knew that Chief Xue would not give him these things for no reason.

"Commander-in-Chief Gao, Chief Xue's side was originally going to come to greet the brothers of the expeditionary force in person, but he really couldn't leave because he was entangled in military affairs." After Li Xiazhong bowed his hand to apologize, he directly introduced the topic into the topic.

"I don't know if Commander Gao happened to pass by when he went north this time, or did he have other intentions? Fifty or sixty miles to Yiyang is the second line of defense of our army, and the little devil is now wreaking havoc on the right army, if it were not for the help of your air force to destroy the main force of the little devil's air force and artillery, I am afraid that our army will be the first

The second line of defense has collapsed."

Li Xiazhong first gave Gao Jianwu a high hat, and then changed his words.

"Li heard that the expeditionary force is outstanding, why not annihilate the 44th Division of the Little Devil's Right Route Army in one fell swoop?"

If other people heard this, they naturally couldn't help but bargain, and they would ask for something to exchange before they would tell their plans, but Gao Jianwu did not have such a bad habit, and said directly to Li Xiazhong.

"Li Gaoshen, you're right, our army is heading north, so naturally we won't let the little devils run rampant here. We have decided to annihilate the 40th Division first, and then move eastward to annihilate the Little Devil Middle Route Army near the Miluo River in one fell swoop, and if Chief Xue has any plan, then deploy operations against the Third Division and the 13th Division of the Little Devil's Left Route Army."
