"In addition to 2 tons of first-aid medicines, I brought you 30 boxes of Great China cigarettes, 10 cases of Moutai wine, and a lot of military rations such as beef jerky, luncheon meat, and canned fish! Wait a while, let's sit down and take our time! Jiang Qiang then magnified the move. That's great! Thank you, Commander Jiang! "Wow, so many good cigarettes and good wine! It's so cool! ”

"Hey, Great China, Moutai! Haha, since we tasted it last year, we still can't forget that taste! Hearing this, Zhang Zizhong, Li Wentian and others have shown ecstasy, they have been smoking and drinking wine all these years, which is definitely a kind of best human enjoyment, not to mention the high-quality cigarettes and good wine produced in Shanghai!" If you like it! If you want it in the future, send a telegram, and I'll send someone to bring it to you! Ha ha! It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's come to a while without getting drunk and not returning, how about it? ”

Jiang Qiang is in a super good mood, although he may not be able to change their fate in the end, but being able to kill the enemy side by side with them and share the happiness is enough to make people intoxicated and happy! "That's a good idea!" "I'm waiting for myself to sacrifice my life to accompany a gentleman!" "I can't wait!"

Jiang Qiang's proposal is in the hands of Zhang Zizhong and others, it is rare for the troops to transfer to rest, there will be no hard battles for the time being, and it is completely possible to relax appropriately! "Haha, then what are you waiting for! Head Liao, first move a few boxes of food and drink down, let's go, let's open a big table together, and be happy! ”

Jiang Qiang has always said that he will do it, and without saying a word, he will start a group directly, and take out 2 boxes of cigarettes, 2 boxes of Moutai wine, and several boxes of military rations! Then, the group each carried a large box of things and walked towards the military headquarters of the 59th Army. The military headquarters of the 59th Army is set up in a cave not far away, and there are a few oil lamps lit in it at this time, although the light is very dim, but it is basically clear!

I saw that the place was very spacious, and the cool breeze was very refreshing, but it seemed extremely simple and empty, and the words echoed constantly! "Come, put it up first! It's been a long time since I've eaten and drunk with my brothers, so let's have fun today! ”

Jiang Qiang walked to the center of the stone cave, saw a large stone platform where sundries were placed, and without saying a word, he asked people to put things on it, and then opened the packing box in a hurry. "Wow! That's great! I'll smoke a cigarette first! "Wow! After drinking wine for a lifetime, this Moutai wine is still the best, just smelling this aroma is not good! "So much beef jerky and canned meat, wow, we've got a mouthful of it tonight!"

After opening the package, looking at the table full of cigarettes, fine wine, all kinds of meat, canned food, Zhang Zizhong and others were greedy, and they were often full and hungry for most of the continuous battle, not to mention the delicious food and drink! For Jiang Qiang, these canned dry food are no different from what modern people call "junk food", and they usually don't even look at it, but for people in the current era, they are undoubtedly rare food and high-end goods!

"Wow, sure enough, it's still the filter of Great China! It's so cool! With a snap and a light of the cigarette, Li Wentian spit out a smoke ring, and then said to Jiang Qiang with a smile: "Commander Jiang, are you all producing these cigarettes yourself?" Can you give me a few more packs this time? Jiang Qiang smiled: "This time I can bring 30 boxes, 30 in each box, 10 packs each, a total of 9,000 packs of cigarettes, all for you!" Can you still smoke enough? ”

"Hey, hey! That's great! At least for a year and a half, I am not afraid that I will not be able to help if I am addicted to smoking! Li Wentian nodded at Jiang Qiang, and his heart blossomed! Come, brothers, all up! If it weren't for the bloody battles you fought and killed countless enemies along the way, the little devil might have been! Although Jiang Qiang usually doesn't smoke much, he has to smoke a few cigarettes with him today, took out a lighter and lit them for Zhang Zizhong and others, and then smoked them himself.

"Wow! This beef jerky is so chewy and delicious! "This canned fish is also very delicious, so delicious!" "Hehe, I still think Moutai is better! Refreshing! "Come, let's have a drink!" Dry! ”

After a period of happy eating, drinking, and chatting, Jiang Qiang said in a low tone: "You have really suffered these days, I heard from Chief Li before I came, the Fifth War Zone was basically disabled, especially your 59th Army!" In the Battle of Xuzhou, you fought with the Japanese army for several months, and when Xuzhou broke out, you were responsible for breaking off, and more than 25,000 people fought until now, and only more than 6,000 people remain! ”

Zhang Zizhong smiled with a little bitterness: "How can there be immortals in war, not to mention that we have all killed enough, even if we kill a little devil in the future, we will earn it!" Ha ha! "Hmm! Defend your family and the country, and die without regrets! Li Wentian nodded and said, "This is thanks to Commander Jiang's help, otherwise even if we don't get revoked, we will have to be reduced to other troops!" ”

This is also the pain point of many local miscellaneous troops, who keep fighting bloody battles with the Japanese army, but they can't be replenished, and as a result, they are gone! Unlike the central descendant troops, they can be replenished at any time, even if there are only a few people left, it won't take long to recover and regain their strength when they are withdrawn to the rear!

And why Jiang Qiang is so stubborn in establishing an anti-Japanese war base to stand on his own, this is also the reason, if there is no stable soldier replenishment, there is no way to achieve sustainable development! "Well said! What we are most about now is time! In a year or two at most, the situation of the Anti-Japanese War will be fundamentally reversed, and the little devils will not be so rampant at that time! Jiang Qiang took a deep breath, and some words were piled up on his lips but he couldn't say them, because these words were very inappropriate, and after saying them, they would only increase the embarrassment of both parties!

Wine is a thousand glasses of confidants, eating and drinking happily chatting, and before you know it, the long night slips quietly between your fingers! "It's almost dawn! There is no such thing as a feast that will not be dispersed, and I have to go back! Looking at the time, it was already 4 o'clock in the morning on July 20th, Jiang Qiang stood up and stretched his waist and said, "Brothers, take care, we will have a date later!" If you need help in the future, please feel free to ask! ”

"Good! There will be a period later! "Commander Jiang, let us send you!" Zhang Zizhong and others reluctantly sent Jiang Qiang to the tarmac! "Commander Liao, give the rest of the gasoline to Commander Zhang, maybe they can use it in the future!" Before leaving, Jiang Qiang left most of the remaining half of the barrel of gasoline, although they didn't have a car or tank to drive, but it was still okay to use it for lighting or as a fire bomb!

"Buzz! Airplanes! Airplanes! "Soon, the helicopter began to turn, and soon it flew into the air and drifted away, and in a short time it disappeared completely in the twilight!" Brother Jiang, I understand your intentions! But soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and when the national disaster is at hand, I can only show my will and completely wash away the stigma by bloodshed! So I can only live up to your deep friendship, please understand! It wasn't until the helicopter disappeared that Zhang Zizhong retracted his gaze and sighed secretly in his heart!

"Xun Chen, I heard that Commander Jiang personally came to deliver the medicine last night? What about him now? Not long after Jiang Qiang left, Sun Lianzhong came to the 59th Army camp with a few entourages. Zhang Zizhong pointed to the sky and said, "Fang Lu, you are a step late, Commander Jiang has just left not long ago!" Sun Lianzhong stomped his feet regretfully and said, "Oops! How can this be? Why didn't you squeak me early yesterday? ”

"To be honest, I didn't know that Commander Jiang would come in person beforehand, and listening to what he said was also improvised! It was late at night last night, and we didn't want to call you! If the black light is blind, I am afraid of causing misunderstanding! Zhang Zizhong explained with a smile, then patted Sun Lianzhong on the shoulder and said, "But don't worry, medicine, tobacco and alcohol will be missing your share!" Commander Jiang is coming back this time, and he can bring a lot of good cigarettes and wine, which is enough for us to use for a year! Let's go, I'll take you to see it! ”

"Hey, hey! That's good! I've been smoking and drinking for months, and I'm about to fade out of my mouth! Hehe, it's still Brother Jiang's nostalgia for the old and hasn't forgotten our old brothers! Sun Lianzhong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he rubbed his hands again and again with excitement! The so-called marrow knows the taste, when I was in Taierzhuang, I didn't eat and drink at Jiang Qiang's place, not to mention how sour and refreshing the taste was!

It's 9 a.m. on July 29th! Jingle bell, Jiang Qiang, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by a ringing phone, Jiang Qiang just reached out and grabbed the PHS on the bedside table, and the voice of Shunzi came from the other end of the phone: "Boss, I want to report to you about the recent work situation!" Also, we've discovered something new......"

"Okay, come to my house in an hour! I'm working from home today! Jiang Qiang rubbed his forehead, and interrupted without waiting for Junzi to finish speaking, because his head was not very clear now. Good! I'll come to you in an hour! Junko, of course, nodded again and again. Tell me about the specific situation! An hour later, Jiang Qiang met with Junzi in his study at home! Shunzi sat upright, took out a document and handed it to Jiang Qiangdao:

"Since the official launch of the summer offensive on July 16, it has been 13 days now, and after non-stop operations to be continued, a total of 23,500 combat personnel have participated in the battle, which has not only trained the special guerrilla combat capability of the troops, but also achieved extremely remarkable results! So far, a total of 1,521 Japanese soldiers and 475 puppet soldiers have been killed, 347 military targets have been destroyed, 77 of our troops have been killed and 356 wounded! "Well, not bad! The expected goal was reached,......, hey, wait! ”

Jiang Qiang quickly skimmed through the summary report, but when he turned to the last page, his eyes suddenly condensed: "What happened yesterday?" How did 18 people die and 46 were seriously wounded in one fell swoop? Junzi replied solemnly: "General seat, a large number of Japanese special forces have appeared around us since yesterday morning, and the other party is an extremely difficult master. ”

As the person in charge of the first phase of the summer offensive, he naturally had to take the initiative to take responsibility for such an unexpected situation! "Oh? The little devil also played special warfare operations? Jiang Qiang raised his eyebrows slightly, although this news came a little suddenly, it was not unexpected, after all, the little devil is not stupid or stupid, and it is impossible to walk in place forever!

Junko nodded and said, "It should be like this!" If ordinary soldiers continue to be integrated into the operation team, I am afraid that the casualties will continue to increase! "Well, let's do it, the next few days of operations will be dominated by your special operations brigade! You must beat the special forces of the little devils down, or it won't be fun to make them the climate! After thinking for a while, Jiang Qiang muttered: "A recruit can never become a veteran without seeing blood, and the assault teams of other troops have to continue to practice, there are not so many soft persimmons to pick up in this world!" "I see!" Junko nodded, and then left the study with Jiang Qiang's permission.

Weifang, Headquarters of the 22nd Division, "Haha! Nojima-kun, you are worthy of being the elite of special operations in the Great Japanese Empire, and you have beaten the Chinese harassment troops to the point that they dare not take the lead in just one day! Yo Xi, well done! "The division commander Tuqiao was full of excitement at one time, he had been harassed by the Huaxia Tiger Army for several months, and he had already been furious, but he couldn't take revenge! Especially in the past half month, the intensity of the special guerrilla warfare of the Jiaodong Group Army has increased several times in an instant, causing the loss of troops and the panic of the people, and the front-line soldiers are almost no longer even brave enough to stand guard and stand guard!

"The elimination of the Chinese special forces is the most important purpose of the formation of our special operations brigade of the Japanese Empire!" Nojima Rikuto sat at the wine table, looking extremely confident and righteous. "Shw! You can say that again! Now it's up to you special operations teams! Tsuchihashi once picked up his glass and said, "Come, I'll toast you!" I wish Nojima-kun another brilliant record and revenge for the warriors of the Imperial Japan! ”

Due to the Second Army's southward attack on Wuhan, the 10th and 6th Divisions of the Jiaodong Group Army, which had previously besieged Jiaodong, had already moved away, and in addition to the local garrisons drawn from China, only the 20th Division and the 22nd Division were left in the entire territory of Shandong! Among them, the 22nd Division was mainly responsible for the siege of the Jiaodong Group Army and ensuring the safety and smoothness of the Jiaoji Railway Line, while the 20th Division was stationed on the front line of Xuzhou to prevent the Jiaodong Group Army from moving south to join the National Army.

When the local garrison troops, although they could not grab the merit of "opening up the territory and expanding the territory", they could enjoy the peaceful days as a prestige, but Tuqiao was very sad to meet the Jiaodong Group Army! "Thank you, Your Excellency!"

Nojima Luren took a sip of his wine glass, and then said worriedly: "Your Excellency, General, I am worried that the special guerrilla warfare of the Chinese army in the past is by no means as simple as harassment and training! Tsuchihashi frowned once, but on the surface, he asked in a relaxed tone, "Oh? What is Nojima-kun's opinion? ”

Nojima Luren said in a deep voice: "I have fought with Jiang Qiang many times, and I know that this Huaxia commander is like a cobra king lurking in the shadows, extremely insidious and vicious!" Either you can't wait for an opportunity, or you will hit the opponent's throat and weakness with one blow, making it difficult to parry! "Nojima-kun means that there will be a larger operation for them?" Tsuchihashi's heart throbbed suddenly, and this was what he was most worried about.

A few months ago, a whole five divisions and regiments were gathered in Shandong, and there was no way to take the hard bone of the Jiaodong Group Army, and now that the Second Army has moved to the front line in Wuhan, only two divisions are left to clamp down on the Jiaodong Group Army. If we add the garrison troops in the occupied areas in Shandong, the total strength of the three divisions and regiments will be added, and the troops are scattered in the vast occupied areas, and many counties and cities are extremely weak! Nojima Rikuto nodded and said, "Jiang Qiang's actions have always been erratic and unpredictable, but one thing is for sure, that is, he will never do meaningless things!"

During the Battle of Xuzhou, although the Jiaodong Group Army suffered heavy casualties, it was far from being wounded, and after a few months of rest and lurking, I think they will definitely have a large-scale military operation in the near future! Our special operations brigade can counterattack through special warfare, but there is no way to compete with it on the frontal battlefield! ”

"Shw! I understand! Tuqiao nodded once, he had already reported to the North China Front Army Headquarters a few days ago, and a new division was being formed in the country, if there was really any change, it would soon be able to land in Qingdao! In the next few days, the special operations brigade and various commandos of the Jiaodong Group Army launched more fierce local battles with the Japanese special operations brigade and the defenders everywhere, and there was almost no gap from morning to night 24 hours a day!

At 7 a.m. on August 11, Longgang Mountain Fortress! "Wow, Commander Jiang Qiang, your fortress is simply amazing, even if it is a fortress of national defense, it is not more than that! It alone can block the Japanese army from the outside of the Jiaodong area! Today he was specially invited to watch the battle, the first time to climb to the top of Longgang Mountain Fortress, from the foot of the mountain all the way up the car, to see the fortifications along the way and the giant fort on the top of the mountain, can't help but be amazed!

Jiaodong area as the foundation of Jiang Qiang, Jiang Qiang naturally spared no effort to defend, after a variety of experts in the field survey of the terrain of Longgang Mountain, carefully designed three permanent fortifications of the defense line. The first line of defense is at the foot of Longgang Mountain, which is a semi-encircled trench! The trenches are made of concrete and steel plates, and a large number of heavy machine guns, anti-artillery guns, anti-artillery holes and other fortifications have been built, and there are tunnels to communicate with the mountainside and the fortifications on the top of the mountain!

If necessary, reinforcements from the top of the mountain and the mountainside can come down from the tunnels to reinforce them! The second line of defense is on the mountainside, and this line of defense is composed of 6 large reinforced concrete pillboxes, which contain howitzers, anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, heavy machine guns and other heavy firepower, and are also connected by tunnels, which can also be connected with the semi-circular trenches at the foot of the mountain and the main fort at the top of the mountain. The third line of defense is at the top of the hill, and it is an extremely strong five-story bunker!

Three of the five layers of the bunker are hidden underground, and the two floors are exposed to the surface, and there are tunnels leading directly to the main fort under the main peak, and there are also military facilities such as hospitals, dormitories, command posts and ammunition depots.

The reason why Jiang Qiang is so mad is not because the Jiaodong area is close to the sea, and the Japanese army has heavy bombers. As for the fortifications at the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside, it is also not bad, anyway, the devil's heavy artillery is not to be broken!

Jiang Qiang smiled and said with some pride: "Chief Li, today I invite you to watch the show!" After practicing with the little devil for more than 20 days, it's time to make some big moves! "Haha, then I'll see! These days are really idle, and it is definitely a happy and pleasant thing to see the little devil eating deflated in the hands of Commander Jiang! ”

Jiang Qiang smiled, and after putting away the binoculars, he ordered Liao Youtian beside him: "Pass the order to go down to the second phase of the offensive!" The 1st and 2nd Divisions launched a tentative attack on Changyi County and Wei County respectively! Due to the intervention of the Japanese special operations team, the first phase of the offensive was postponed for three days, and the newly formed special operations brigade of the Nojima land people for more than three months was brutally beaten into a half-crippled position, and Jiang Qiang did not dare to rise again, and then Jiang Qiang was satisfied to start the second phase of the offensive.

"Haha, it's finally time to get real!" "The Flying Tigers take off!" "All gun emplacements are available! One test shot, fire! ”

The attacking troops, who had been waiting for a long time, turned on the war mode one after another, and soon three bombers and more than 40 Mustang fighters with improvised bombers took off from the air base.

The artillery unit began to test the bombardment, the tank armored regiment that was quietly waiting lifted its camouflage, and the heavily armed infantry clung to the steel guns and were ready to attack! "Commander Jiang, is it possible that you are going to fight the devil today? It is worthy of the Jiaodong Group Army, this momentum is simply nothing to say! Ha ha! Finally, you can see the real big scene! ”

Looking at the group of planes flying in the sky, looking at the more than 20 heavy tanks and hundreds of infantry armed to the teeth at the foot of the mountain, Li Zongren couldn't help but praise loudly again! In the past, he was always bullied by the Japanese army's aircraft, tanks, and artillery, but now he has changed his role, and it is his turn to beat the little devil, Li Zongren is not in a good mood! "Haha, today is also the first time we have engaged in this kind of three-dimensional combat, and I am also looking forward to the effect!"

Jiang Qiang raised his eyebrows slightly, if it weren't for the more than 10,000 Japanese troops gathered in Weixian and Changyi counties, it would be far from the expected goal, otherwise there would really be a decisive battle today! "Wow! Total seat! It's so domineering! "Long live the Jiaodong Group Army!"

As military reporters and official mouthpieces, Xia Yu and Wang Hui were also invited to Longgang Mountain Fortress, positive propaganda and military documentaries have to be asked all the time, as the so-called two hands must be hard! As for the reporters of other newspapers, then I'm sorry, they can't be allowed to shoot and report on these contents related to military secrets, at most they will be notified when the news is released!

15 kilometers in front of the Longgang Mountain Fortress in Jiaodong, it is the Yujiayao Fortress carefully built by the Japanese army in order to besiege the Jiaodong Group Army, which is currently garrisoned by the 84th Wing of the 22nd Division! Yujia kiln was originally just a flat land, and later with the gradual increase of kiln craftsmen and truck households, it is convenient to build houses on the side of the kiln to form a village! And after years of excavation, several earth mountains around Yujiayao have either been razed to the ground or only half of them are left!

When Jiang Qiang established the Anti-Japanese War base, he also considered including Yujiayao in the scope of the defense area, but although the houses here are relatively dense and there is a town atmosphere, there is no danger to defend in the plain area! At that time, its own strength was also extremely limited, and it was impossible to carry out large-scale construction and transformation, so it could only retreat to Longgang Mountain outside Gaomi County as a frontier position!

After the Japanese army occupied Yujiayao, it originally did not plan to strengthen it into a military fortress, but with the long-term battle with the Jiaodong Group Army but it was always difficult to break through the defense line, the importance of Yujiayao was highlighted. As a result, in the past half a year, the Japanese army has built permanent and semi-permanent fortifications on a large scale in Yujiayao, and now it has become a military fortress covered in thorns!

However, it is obvious that this Yujiayao Fortress is no longer at the same level as the Longgang Mountain Fortress! "Attention all gun emplacements! Ready, fire! After a test firing, more than 20 heavy guns soon let out an earth-shattering roar again, and one after another large-caliber shells rose into the sky, and soon the Japanese positions exploded one after another with billowing smoke!

Buzzing, the shelling was not over, 32 Mustang fighters took off from the base and arrived over the Japanese position, and then saw bombs raining down! Boom, boom, fierce explosions continued one after another, the Japanese Yujiayao fortress was instantly blown up into potholes and fragments, and a large number of houses collapsed and shattered, even the concrete permanent fortifications built by the little devils were not spared in the continuous violent explosion!

When I saw it from a distance, I saw the flames rushing into the sky, billowing gunpowder smoke and large clouds of dust rising into the air, turning a large area into a gray patch, and it didn't take long to be completely enveloped in smoke and dust! Don't think about it, under such a powerful artillery attack, the fortification group and the little devil garrison in Yujiayao must have suffered serious casualties!

"Wow! It's also spectacular! "Well done, kill these brutes!"

Xia Yu and Wang Hui were enthusiastic when they saw it, and they kept taking pictures and photos, although they couldn't do on-site reports, but these precious historical images must be preserved.

"Amaterasu! Help me! "Yaga! It's not good, the Chinese army is going to attack! "Hurry up and get into the bomb holes!" Hurry up and drop! ”

The Japanese defense troops were in chaos in an instant, although there has been constant friction with the Huaxia Tiger Army these days, and hundreds of battles have been fought large and small, but this is the first time that the artillery bombardment of such a scale and intensity has been carried out! The little devils were injured and died, and many people who didn't have time to hide in the anti-artillery holes were either directly blown to pieces, or their internal organs were shattered!

"Report to Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the Yujiayao Fortress has been attacked by heavy artillery fire from the Chinese army! The Imperial Army suffered heavy casualties and asked for tactical guidance...... "The brigade headquarters where the captain of the 1st Brigade of the 84th Wing, Soba Hayabusa, is located, is a reinforced concrete fortress, and although it has also been shelled and bombed, the main building is still intact!" Because he has been guarding against the frontal attack of the Jiaodong Group Army, as soon as he was shelled, Xiangye Falcon called for help!
