Rise from the sword

Chapter 544

"Eighth Route Army,"

"Independent group..."

Hearing these two words, Cai Jigang's pupils suddenly shrank.

The Eighth Route Army is currently the most sensitive topic for preserved fruit.

Far beyond the devil.

This army, or should be said to be this group of forces, has obtained a large amount of weapons, equipment and supplies from unknown sources in recent years, and their strength has greatly increased. Shanxi and other places.

Form an entrenched posture.

At the same time, food stamps are issued, supported by high-quality grain, sugar, and fuel oil. Now it is almost the most mainstream currency in the country, and it is still recruiting a large number of refugees and doing construction work, and its reputation is getting better and better.

Not long ago, the army stationed in Mongolia was completely wiped out, a large area of ​​lost land was recovered, and its reputation was greatly enhanced. Compared with preserved fruit, it lost the central Henan area.

High judgment.

And this independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army is the origin of all this. It all started with this small regiment-level force with no establishment and no name.

"You guys, what's the matter?"

As the war supervisor sent by the Ninth War Zone, Cai Jigang didn't want to get in touch with this group of people.

In the eyes of the chairman, this group of people is more threatening than devils.

The devil is arrogant now, but the international situation is very good now, as long as the fruit does not fall, no matter how much territory is lost, everything can be recovered when the Americans come to fight.

But the territory occupied by this group of people, based on the current strength of the two sides, wants to take it back in the future, unless the Americans take action in person, otherwise...
However, in the battle of Changheng, the fall of Changsha has become a foregone conclusion. A large area of ​​the country has been ravaged by the Japanese invaders, a large number of ordinary people have been displaced, and a large number of soldiers have suffered heavy casualties.In addition, the Hengyang operation is about to begin.

As a soldier, Cai Jigang knew that it was time to abandon prejudice and unite all available anti-Japanese forces.

"This is a letter from our political commissar."

The person who came handed Cai Jigang a letter.

"political commissar···"

Looking at the letter in front of him, Cai Jigang froze for a while.

Although he did not mention his name, Cai Jigang knew who this political commissar was.

Zhao Gang.

Political Commissar of the Independent Group.

In terms of popularity, this person is even more famous than Li Yunlong, the head of the independent group.

Under the leadership of Zhao Gang, two years ago, in 42 years, Eight Roads began large-scale rescue of victims in the Henan area, transferring victims, distributing food and basic living materials to the victims, and the scale has expanded year by year.

After the independent group arrived in Zhaojiayu, that is, for more than a year, it organized a large-scale disaster relief, and millions of victims survived, and even lived well.

It is roughly estimated that these actions have saved at least 1000 million disaster victims through work-for-work and other methods.

Moreover, this person also vigorously develops industry, education, and scientific research. He is highly respected by intellectuals and has a very high reputation all over the country. Because of these actions, the reputation of Eight Roads in the country is very strong.

Cai Jigang has always felt that these actions organized by this person pose a threat to Guoguo that is even more dangerous than direct military actions.

But he also has to admit that what Zhao Gang organized has greatly enhanced national strength, enhanced national self-confidence, enhanced the people's sense of identity with the country, and enhanced the cohesion of the country.

After hesitating for a long time, Cai Jigang finally accepted the letter.

······
this afternoon.

Balu, what will you do?

Seeing the bait brigade that had passed through the ambush area, Kazuo Saito clenched the bastard box in his hand and began to breathe heavily.

As the squadron leader, his own ability is also good. Under the observation of the leopard, he knows very well that the division commander has made sufficient preparations for this ambush.

The total strength is 5000, of which 5000 are responsible for intercepting the support troops of the Eighth Route, and a total of 1 troops are directly involved in the ambush.

The 1 people were divided into three parts.

The first part is the bait, that is, a brigade and a half fleeing along the road, and the second part is about 2000 people, ambush around the ambush site.The third part is the absolute main force of the remaining 7000 troops, hidden behind the first two fully formed brigades, forming a larger encirclement.

The head of the division is not a fool.

Eighth Road is a veteran of ambushes, and it is difficult to guarantee that people will be fooled by mere bait, so they set up multiple layers of ambushes.

When the Eighth Route faction's reconnaissance troops found that the ambush on the two wings was only a mere 2000 people, and they had an absolute advantage in firepower, they would definitely launch an attack directly, intending to defeat the ambush troops, and this move happened to enter a large ambush circle.

While Saito was thinking, he saw the eight roads in the distance stopped one kilometer outside the ambush circle, and a few people got out of the armored vehicles in the front row and looked forward with binoculars, but what surprised him was that they waited for a long time After a while, the decoy team ran for a mile, but the opponent was still in place, and had no intention of sending out a reconnaissance team at all.

"What the hell are these bastards trying to do?"

Just when a small captain beside him was cursing.

buzz buzzing

There was the sound of an airplane in the distance, and then twelve airplanes appeared in sight of the devils.

"The first ambush circle was discovered?"

Seeing the plane, Saito thought subconsciously.

If it wasn't for the discovery of the ambush, why would Eighth Route call so many planes over?

Immediately afterwards, he frowned.

"There are too many planes."

Twelve planes, equivalent to half a flying wing.

The same guesses, doubts and exclamations floated in the hearts of every brainy devil at this time, and then all the devils saw that the fifteen planes began to lower their altitude, and they could even clearly see the bombs under the belly of the fighter planes.

"Not right."

Saito suddenly felt bad.

During the recuperation period, the various words he heard from the injured soldiers from the First Army and the North China Front Army made him clear that he should not treat the Eighth Route Army with any luck.

"Enter the blast hole."

Without hesitation, he immediately led the people around him into the hidden anti-bomb hole he dug overnight.

As soon as he, Saito, got into the blast hole, he heard violent explosions.

Looking back, through the opening of the anti-battery hole, he saw that planes began to swell, bombs fell from the sky, and violent explosions continued to surface on the ambush positions on both sides of the canyon.

And not only the first ambush circle of the two brigades he was in, but even the second ambush circle where the division commander was located was covered by violent explosions.

"One plane can hold so many bombs!"

"Is this the ambush plan all exposed?"

Surprise and horror suddenly appeared in Saito's heart.

Suddenly, a bomb exploded near his bomb defense hole, setting off violent smoke. Saito's eyes widened suddenly, because that was where his captain was.

······
"There really is an ambush devil!"

The battalion commander who was traveling with Kong Jie was a little surprised when he saw the devils who were blown out by the violent explosion of the aerial bomb.

"normal."

Kong Jie smiled and said:

"The terrain in front of me is very suitable for an ambush."

"Besides, [-] devils retreated and fled without firing a single shot. This is obviously not right."

"Captain, let's..."

asked the battalion commander.

His tone was a little impatient.

Now that the devil is disgraced by the bombing, it is a good time to take advantage of the victory and pursue it.

"Not urgent."

Kong Jie shook his head, signaling to the battalion commander to be calm:
"Let's bomb a little longer."

As Kong Jie's voice fell, five fighter planes flew over in the distance.

The increase in fame has brought a steady stream of talents from all over the country to Ping'an County. In addition, through the trading of resources and preserved fruits, the army has obtained a large number of good pilot seedlings. With the talent priority supply system and a large number of actual aircraft training, the pilots of the army have experienced a lot of drama. increase.

Seventy combat pilots are stationed at Song County Airport.

The current ambush location is less than [-] kilometers away from Songxian County, and the aircraft in preparation for war only takes half an hour from takeoff to support.

Today is sunny and the sky is blue.

In this kind of weather, the aerial vision is excellent. Even though the terrain on the ground is complex and the jungle is lush, the bombing effect is also very good.

After learning that there were devils ambushing below, the independent flying brigade of Songxian County showed an attitude of killing one thousand by mistake and not letting one go, and dropped heavy bombs on every hilltop and places suitable for ambush.

During the bombing that lasted for two hours, the flying brigade dispatched a total of [-] sorties and [-] tons of bombs.

"attack."

Only here did Kong Jie give the order to attack.

As his voice fell, seven planes appeared again in the sky.

　I couldn't take it anymore, so I went to bed first. .
