The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1054
...and this is not the end.

In the eastern Mongolia area, when the Japanese flying troops went to reinforce Heimu, the Wuchakou Airport of the Japanese and puppet troops was suddenly attacked by long-range artillery fire.

The artillery fire came suddenly and was very powerful. The enemy even used high-explosive incendiary bombs. When a shell came down, the scorching flames burst into flames.

Although because the distance is far enough, the strike is not accurate.

Under the spread of the burning flames, a large amount of materials and ammunition at the Devil's airport, and even some separately stored fuel, were detonated in an instant.

This sudden blow almost scared the souls of the Japanese soldiers at the airport.

As long as a shell from the enemy fell near the devil's fuel depot, it was no joke, and it would even cause the entire airport's fuel depot to explode.

The oil depot can be said to be the most important part of the entire airport, which is more important than fighter jets and bombers.

If the plane is destroyed, some new ones will be dispatched.

However, oil depots are often prepared according to long-term military needs. Once they are detonated, the Japanese army will suffer huge losses and cannot recover in a short time.

Not to mention since the US military has controlled the import of Japanese oil.

The devil's fuel supply is already tight.

Fortunately, when the devils built this airport, they also took into account the possibility of being attacked by the enemy, so the oil depot was hidden deep underground.

The Japanese army stationed at the airport hastily calculated the position of the raiding enemy army in reverse according to the trajectory of the ballistic crossing in mid-air, and immediately sent a team to expel it.

In the end, although the artillery raid failed to blow up the Japanese Wuchagou Airport, it also failed to destroy the Devil's oil depot. One round of shells blasted nearly a hundred craters, large and small, in the Devil's airport.

And blew up a considerable amount of supplies and ammunition hoarded by the devils in the central area of ​​the airport.

As a result, the Wuchagou Airport of the Japanese and puppet troops suffered considerable losses.

The whole airport was uproarious.

The original preparations made by the airport for the flight team to reinforce the Black Wood Brigade were also completely destroyed.

Wait until the expulsion troops sent by the Japanese army arrive at the artillery position area where the enemy sneak attack.

It turned out to be a unit of the Eighth Route Army.

"Report sir, it was a mobile artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army that attacked the airport of our army. After we arrived, we had a brief exchange of fire with it. The Eighth Route Army took advantage of the mobility of the tractors and quickly pulled the artillery away!"

"Baga, these damned Balu again!"

The commander of the devil, Shao Zuo, rushed to the battle area, but the enemy's sneak attack had disappeared. He looked at the enemy's army that was about to disappear into the horizon with a binoculars, and couldn't help cursing angrily while listening to his subordinate's report.

He was muttering in his heart, wondering what the result of Major General Heimu's battle was, whether he had successfully wiped out the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army that appeared in the Mengxi area.

When the Japanese flight team that reinforced the Black Wood Brigade returned to the sky above Wuchagou Airport, several fighter jets were even being hit by the anti-aircraft machine guns of the Eighth Route Army, dragging black smoke.

The devil pilots were in a hurry, trying to land the plane.

Then I looked in the direction of the airport, and the large amount of gunpowder smoke that filled the airport had not dissipated.

At the same time, news came from the direction of the airport that it was raided by the Eighth Route Army. The airport is currently undergoing emergency repairs to make room for the flight team to land their planes.

The devil pilots were all shocked.

These eight roads actually called to the airport.

……

It turned out that Kong Jie and Li Yunlong had been thinking about how to deal with the devil's Wuchagou Airport long before they arrived in West Mengxi.

In Li Yunlong's words: "We can't be beaten passively, we don't have a plane, so we should find a way to destroy the devil's airport.

Even if the devil's airport cannot be completely destroyed, it is good to scare the little devil. We have to let the little devil know that when their air force fire annoys me, I will give it to them! "

In the end, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong thought about it, considering that the devils must be heavily guarded around the airport, and it would be difficult for conventional troops to approach, so they specially prepared a mobile howitzer unit.

This unit is used as a Raider.

Under sufficient camouflage, they proceeded in concealment all the way, trying to get closer to the Wuchagou Airport of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Once an opportunity is found, a long-distance bombardment is immediately launched at the devil's airport. After the attack, they disperse and hide, and flee thousands of miles away. Even if the Japanese army wants to retaliate, they can't find anyone.

In the end, this unit successfully completed the combat mission and successfully attacked the Japanese Wuchagou Airport.

Since the Japanese army's Wuchagou Airport was raided, at least that day, they did not have the conditions to continue dispatching air reinforcements.

This helped Kong Jie and Li Yunlong to ambush the Blackwood Chariot Brigade to a great extent.

the other side.

The Heimu troops were completely defeated and fled in a disastrous defeat. Under the command of the old devil Heimu, the remaining 1/3 of the chariot troops concentrated their forces and fled north in a panic.

Kong Jie and Li Yunlong led the armored troops, and with the assistance of the Yanbei Detachment and the reinforcements of the 120th Division, they chased and fought fiercely.

Further expand the results.

at this time.

Stationed at the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Xinjing, the capital of the Puppet Manchukuo, the old devil commander is still waiting for the good news from the Blackwood Brigade.

In the eyes of this old devil, General Heimu came out this time, and he led the elite chariots of the Kwantung Army to wipe out the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army. Isn't it easy to capture?
The Nanzhi chariot group was defeated by the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army.

His Kwantung Army Tank Brigade defeated this armored army unit of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.

It is enough to prove that the Kwantung Army is much more elite than the imperial troops in the pass.

As a result, the news came that the Blackwood Chariot Brigade was hit hard by the Eighth Route Army, and it is currently making a hasty strategic shift.

The devil commander was dumbfounded at that time!

Neiji Okamura, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China, who was in Beiping, was also waiting for the news of the triumphant return of the Kuroki Chariot Brigade!

The result was Heimu's disastrous defeat.

When these high-ranking devil officers were stunned and felt incredible, if there was anyone among the officers of the Japanese army who was still secretly happy, perhaps only the old devil Nanzhi, the commander of the Nanzhi tank group, was the only one.

Yes, you Heimu were also defeated by the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Now I, Nanzhi, feel balanced.

"Beautiful, these two battles are really more beautiful than the other!"

35th Route Army Command, Commander Fu was amazed by this.

The chief of staff at the side was also immersed in the shock, "Yi Gong, I can't even think about it, the Eighth Route Army was able to defeat the Nanzhi chariot group, which is unimaginable enough.

Right now, they have once again defeated the Japanese Kwantung Army Tank Brigade.

God, how on earth did they do it? "

Fu Yisheng smiled and said: "You ask me, who should I ask? If you really want to know the answer, I think so, after this battle is completely over, let's organize an exchange team to go to the Eighth Route Army to learn from it!"

"I think it's a good idea!" The chief of staff responded with a smile.

"The armored troops of the Eighth Route Army! They are so powerful!"

The two felt sincerely.

Monsey area.

The battle was still going on. It was thought that the defeat of the Blackwood Chariot Brigade was the end, but no one thought that this was just the beginning of the Eighth Route Army's further expansion of the results.

Houhe was originally an inconspicuous small city in Suiyuan, but because of its geographical advantage, it had a relatively prominent military role, so it became one of the logistics stations commonly used by the Japanese army.

The old devil Heimu led the chariot all the way westward from the direction of Daxing'an Mountains. He chose Houhe as a logistics transfer station. After he was ready, he went to the west of Mengxi.

Around three in the afternoon.

The ghost Shao Zuo who stayed behind Houhe still stood on the top of the city, looking towards Mengxi's direction, thinking that His Excellency Heimu might return with a big victory at some point.

Then I saw a troop gradually appearing from the horizon, which seemed to be a mobile troop, with some chariots mixed in with it.

The devil, Shao Zuo, didn't think too much, and immediately ordered with a happy face: "Your Excellency, the brigade commander, has returned after winning the battle. Quickly, open the city gate, and prepare to welcome the wind for the brigade leader!"

Then the adjutant at the side suddenly said suspiciously:
"Sir, the situation doesn't seem quite right. It doesn't seem like our chariot unit is on the opposite side. How does it look like an eight-way mobile unit?"

"Eight ways? How is this possible?"

Major Guizi was stunned for a moment, and quickly raised his binoculars to take a closer look, then his face changed dramatically.

Inside the chariot that was quickly approaching, it might not be clear which side's troops it was, but those who rode fast on horseback were clearly wearing the eighth route army's iconic earth-gray military uniform.

"Asshole, what's going on here? Why did Balu come here?"

"Sir, what should we do? Judging from the situation, it seems to be the main mobile force of the Eight Route Army. They even have quite a few tanks in their ranks. Could it be that the armored troops of the Eight Route Army are coming?"

Faced with the adjutant's panic, Major Guizi was flustered for a moment. The first thing he thought of was, isn't the head of the Black Wood Brigade leading the elite tanks of the empire to deal with the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army?
How did the eight-way armored force come to Houhe?
The devil, who had no time to think about it, ordered to prepare for the defense, and at the same time let the communications department contact the headquarters of the Blackwood Brigade.

Only then did Major Guizi learn that the Blackwood Chariot Brigade had been completely defeated not long ago.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the main force of the Eighth Route Army that defeated you has appeared outside Houhe City. I saw a large number of tanks and many Eighth Route Army troops wearing steel helmets. I ask for tactical guidance!"

How shrewd is this devil Shao Zuo, even the elite chariots of His Excellency the Brigade Commander were defeated by the Eighth Route Army. In a small city like Houhe, with very limited troops left behind, how could it be possible to stop the attack of these Eighth Route main forces?

The headquarters of the Blackwood Chariot Brigade.

The old devil Heimu was leading the troops to retreat in a hurry, and then he got the news that the main armored force of the Eighth Route Army had appeared outside Houhe City.

At this moment, Hei Mu didn't care to think about the truth of the news.

The words wearing a helmet already made him subconsciously think that it was really the eight-way elite he met.

He only knew where the main force of the armored troops of the Eighth Route appeared, and he had to avoid it far away to survive.

As for the confrontation, he has already lost his elite at this time, and his tank has lost nearly [-]%. The mobile heavy artillery unit, which is the trump card, was also destroyed by the Eighth Route Army because of its lack of mobility. .

Without any choice.

Kuroki issued an order to the Houhe Command to let the Japanese Shao Zuo judge the command by himself according to the situation on the battlefield.

After receiving the order, the Japanese commander did not hesitate, and immediately led his troops to abandon the city and evacuate.

Even the elite chariot troops of the Empire led by His Excellency the Brigade Commander were no match for the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army. The Devil Shao Zuo was very self-aware and would never foolishly defend a low-walled, easy-to-attack and difficult-to-defend Houhe City to death.

In this way, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who fought all the way outside the city of Houhe took Houhe almost effortlessly.

And in the evening of that day.

Finally escaped all the way, the Devil Major General Heimu who was stationed in a temporary town received another message: The main armored forces of the Eighth Route Army appeared outside Zhangjiakou and were attacking.

This made the old devil Heimu startled.

"These damned Eight Routes, how many armored units do they have? Why are their main forces everywhere?"

Feeling a bit strange, Hei Mu kept inquiring about the main armored force of the attacking Eighth Route Army from the Zhangjiakou headquarters while he was stationed temporarily.

at this time.

Zhangjiakou area.

The mobile troops of the Eighth Route Army had already exchanged fire with the Japanese troops stationed in Zhangjiakou in the peripheral area.

The location of Zhangjiakou is very important in terms of military role, especially the Hebei Central Military Region where the Japanese North China Front Army plotted against the Eighth Route Army.

Facing the sudden attack of the Eighth Route Army's armored main force, the Japanese troops stationed in Zhangjiakou did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly defended, never daring to give the Eighth Route Army an opportunity.

Among them, those who assisted in defending the city were the Nanzhi troops who had just lost to the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Knowing that the armored main force of the Eighth Route Army appeared outside Zhangjiakou, the old devil Nanzhi was also shocked, and then he cursed Heimu.

When reporting the situation to the headquarters, Nanzhi felt even more shameless that the armored forces of the Eighth Route Army had been consumed by himself.

The offensive Eighth Route is undoubtedly the main armored force of the Eighth Route Army.

They have a decent number of mechanized combat vehicles, including many tanks.

They easily broke through layers of defense, defeated the Blackwood Chariot Brigade, and advanced all the way to Zhangjiakou.

So far, the Japanese military intelligence department believes that the main armored forces of the Eighth Route Army that appeared in the Mengxi area should be distributed in Zhangjiakou and Houhe at this time.

And actually...

After completely defeating the Blackwood Chariot Brigade, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong and other generals pondered over it and immediately made a plan for the next step.

Kong Jie pointed out: "At this point, we should hide everything from the sky, so we set up suspicious formations, so that the devils will completely lose the movement of our armored main force, so that we will never fall into a passive position whether we are attacking or retreating later!"

Teacher Zhang, Brigadier Zhang, and Captain Song of the Yanbei Detachment all helped Kong Jie and Li Yunlong with their follow-up combat plan.

Among them, the 120th Division sent a mobile unit to advance halfway in the direction of Houhe, and disguised it as the main force of the armored force.

The Yanbei Detachment also dispatched a mobile force to advance in the direction of Zhangjiakou.

In order to achieve the purpose of confusing the real ones, Kong Jie and Li Yunlong specially sent a batch of steel helmets to the comrades of the 120th Division and the Yanbei Detachment.

Today, the Eighth Route Army wearing steel helmets has become the standard equipment for the main force of the Eighth Route Army Taihang in the eyes of Japanese military intelligence agencies, and they are vividly called "steel helmet soldiers".

Especially among the Japanese and puppet troops in Shanxi, it was widely rumored that once they encountered the steel helmet soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, if they did not want to die, they had to choose to flee immediately.

Once the running is slow, this team can throw you ashes!

The Eighth Route Army's helmeted soldiers have a great reputation, which can be seen.

In addition, these two teams were mixed with a lot of chariot units, some of which were captured from the Devil's 26th Division after the capture of Datong.

There are also some chariots that were seized after defeating the Jiqun of Nanzhi Chariots and the Blackwood Chariot Brigade.

Including some modified tanks, self-propelled artillery, assault guns and the like.

Such a camouflaged Eighth Route Army's elite helmeted soldiers and armored troops, not to mention ordinary devils, even Heimu and Nanzhi in front of them may not be able to tell the real from the fake.

No wonder the Japanese troops stationed in Houhe and Zhangjiakou felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy when they saw the Eighth Route Army helmeted soldiers.

The soldiers actually used the tiger skins of Kong Jie and Li Yunlong to scare the little devils.

But I have to say, the effect is excellent.

For this reason, the comrades of the 120th Division and the Yanbei Detachment have to sigh with emotion:
The comrades of the 129th division are really amazing. Wearing a helmet can scare little devils to run around. We can do this at any time...
