Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2725 General Bazarov!

Maklov's immediate superior, General Bazarov, was sitting in the operations room, reading Maklov's telegram under the dim light.

Markov was not only his confidant, but also his agent.

And in this transaction with the Anti-Japanese Brigade, he gained the greatest benefits.

But now the money has not been recovered, so he pays special attention to Markov.

Otherwise, it was so late, he would not read the telegrams from irrelevant people.

He read every word of Markov carefully, but felt more and more depressed.

The Chinese fought against the Japanese, that was the Chinese's business. Although he admired the captain of the Duanwu team who changed his name to Qi Dabing very much.

But to put it bluntly, what does the Chinese war have to do with Bazarov?

In his opinion, although the Soviet Union and China had a little friendship, this war was ultimately a matter between the Chinese and the Japanese, and the Soviet Union should maintain a certain distance in order to safeguard its own national interests.

However, when his eyes came across the description of Markov and Vladimir being kidnapped, humiliated, and even threatened with beheading by the Japanese, his face instantly turned livid.

Because the Japanese actually wanted to step on the heads of the Soviets.

"How dare the Japanese be so arrogant? Do they think the Soviet Union is as easy to bully as China?"

General Bazarov roared in a low voice. In his opinion, the dignity of the Soviet people must not be violated, and anyone who dared to challenge the Soviet authority would pay a heavy price.

He immediately called the signalman and ordered:

"I called Markov back and told him that I had received his message and that I was deeply shocked and angry at the situation he described.

Although it is the Chinese people's business for the Anti-Japanese Brigade to resist the Japanese, the treatment you have suffered is a serious provocation to us, the Soviet Union.

Please rest assured that I, Bazarov, will not sit idly by. On behalf of the Soviet military, I express the strongest condemnation of the suffering you have experienced and promise to take immediate action to ensure your safety.

Regarding the military assistance you requested, although it has little to do with the direct interests of the Soviet Union, considering the arrogant behavior of the Japanese, I decided to increase the number of airdropped weapons this time and provide the Anti-Japanese Brigade with a batch of anti-aircraft weapons.

However, these are not free. Qi Dabing must exchange them for items of equal value, preferably in cash.

Also! Comrade Markov, please protect yourself and come back safely.

Signed: General

complete! "

After saying this, General Bazarov waved his hand, and his men immediately went to call back.

Markov was very happy after receiving the telegram, at least General Bazarov agreed to his request.

I just don’t know when General Bazarov’s assistance will arrive.

The Japanese encirclement and suppression of the Anti-Japanese Brigade has already begun, and if these weapons and equipment cannot be delivered at this time, it will become meaningless.

Of course, something is better than nothing, and Markov is very much looking forward to the arrival of military aid.

At the same time, the air raid on the Anti-Japanese Battalion’s base had not yet ended, and the two sides were still engaged in fierce fighting.

Above the base, anti-aircraft artillery fire continued to roar, and the fierce battle with the Japanese bomber formation entered a white-hot stage.

Fierce flames spurted out of the muzzles of the anti-aircraft guns, shells streaked across the sky, and the explosions were deafening.

However, the Japanese bomber formation did not retreat because of the fierce artillery fire. Instead, it launched an even more frantic offensive.

They changed their formation flexibly in the air, trying to find the best angle of attack.

However, the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Brigade had all received rigorous training under the guidance of Duanwu. They also changed the shooting angles, adjusted the shape and direction of the anti-aircraft firepower network, and stopped the enemy's attack.

In this fierce air battle, the losses of both sides continued to increase.

Some of the Japanese bombers were hit directly and fell into fireballs; others were severely damaged and forced to abandon their mission and flee the battlefield in panic.

The anti-aircraft weapons of the Anti-Japanese Battalion also suffered varying degrees of damage in the ongoing fighting, and two anti-aircraft machine guns were blown up by the Japanese aerial bombs.

However, the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighters still relied on their tenacious will and firm belief to hold their positions and fight a desperate battle with the enemy.

As time went by, the Japanese bomber formation gradually retreated.

In this life-and-death battle, the Japanese bomber formation was ultimately defeated.

They left behind the wreckage of more than a dozen planes and rolled back in disgrace like defeated roosters.

At the same time, cheers of soldiers were heard at the Anti-Japanese Brigade’s base.

Because they defeated the enemy again.

Although this victory was achieved at the cost of the lives of more than thirty anti-Japanese fighters.

But at this moment, they did not cry, they only felt pride and honor!

At the same time, the captain of the Luhang Squadron at Fengtian Airport also received a report that the bomber formation was seriously damaged.

He was angry and depressed.

Ichiro Saito was sitting in the command room of Fengtian Airport, his face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

The report in his hand recorded in detail the losses of this bombing mission. Every crashed bomber and every sacrificed pilot was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard.

He slammed his fist on the table in anger, causing the documents on the table to scatter.

"These damn Chinese people actually have such a tenacious resistance!"

Ichiro Saito roared in a low voice. He couldn't understand why an anti-Japanese brigade with poor equipment and difficulty in supply could cause them such huge losses.

He stood up and paced back and forth in the command room, the depression and anger in his heart about to erupt like a volcano.

"We have the most advanced bombers and the best equipment, so why can't we take down a small anti-Japanese brigade base?"

Saito Ichiro muttered to himself, but still couldn't figure it out.

So he stopped, picked up the phone and dialed the number of the Japanese Fengtian Command.

On the other end of the line came the voice of the Commander's Chief of Staff: "Captain Saito, how is the mission going?"

Saito Ichiro took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and depression, and reported the losses of this mission in detail to the chief of staff: "Sir, we encountered stubborn resistance, the bombers suffered heavy losses, and more than half of the pilots were killed or wounded. Now I don't know how to organize the next air strike."

After listening to the report, the chief of staff was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Captain Saito, what you said makes sense. We can no longer bear such losses. If we continue like this, our air superiority will be gone, and our support to the ground will become inadequate."

Saito Ichiro nodded and agreed:

"Your Excellency shares the same view as mine. And I feel that the Chinese do not seem to be afraid of our bombing. Their anti-aircraft firepower is extremely fierce, and it is difficult for our bombers to get close. Continuing the bombing will only increase casualties.

Your Excellency, I am not afraid of death. I would be willing to fight in person. But I am very sad to see so many outstanding talents that the empire has cultivated with great difficulty die. I hope you can understand!"

The chief of staff sighed, and said with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "I understand Saito-kun's difficulties. But you still need to make a report to Kujo Miyakita. Otherwise, he will say that our Fengtian Command is not cooperating with him. Do you understand?"

"Hi!"

Saito Ichiro nodded solemnly, and then waited for the other party to hang up the phone, and then he said, go send a telegram to His Excellency Kujo Miyakita in Songyuan City and explain to him the predicament of our flight group! .
