Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

In the temporary headquarters of the 71st Army.

Army Commander Tan Shiming didn't know about this yet.

Because, large and small Japanese troops also appeared around other troops...

Although the number is not large...but almost every unit has tanks.

This surprised Tan Shiming a little.

"Why...this Japanese army has so many tanks..."

"Something's not right... So many tanks, at least operating with such a division... How come there are so few Japanese infantry..."

"Do they have some conspiracy?"

"Want to confuse us... and then annihilate us?"

Tan Shiming was puzzled, because in his opinion, these Japs were indeed different... very abnormal.

"Commander... Is it possible that these little devils are not as complicated as they think... They think they can defeat us with such a small number of troops..."

"So, there are only a few people?"

Chief of Staff Sun Lize said from the side.

It didn't matter, Tan Shiming became even more angry.

"Damn... these devils... still don't take our 71st Army seriously... we must teach them a lesson!"

"Guantun Highland...This is the highland where we have the largest number of people...The Japs will definitely attack that place..."

"Pass my order...most of the artillery troops...go to Guantun Highland..."

"No matter how fiercely the little devils attack... they must pay the price with blood!"

"Damn it... give them face! I am also a member of the Jinsui Army after all... Are we still afraid of this small army?"

In fact, on a real battlefield, the lives of five to ten soldiers can be exchanged for the life of one Japanese soldier...

Although the little devil is not tall...but he has rich combat skills and strong physical fitness.

Many of the soldiers don't even have military pay...and their daily meals are even worse.

Ordinary Japanese soldiers can still eat enough...I don't know what kind of mixed meat they eat...There are also beans...

However, both the Central Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army basically ate very poor food... not even a hint of meat.

Protein is something that was valued very much in later generations... If you want to recover your physical strength quickly and have strong strength, protein is essential.

In other words, our troops, under the leadership of Zhang Yunqing, slowly began to eat good food.

After all, every time the independent column finishes a battle...the reward for this food is tens of millions of kilograms...and tens of millions of boxes of canned beef...

This food is first-class in any army.

This is one of the reasons why Zhang Yunqing's independent column soldiers have strong combat effectiveness.

"Yes! Commander! I'll call them right now!"

Sun Lize immediately answered the Guantun Highland phone call.

.......

On the Guantun position.

The main garrison force is one division...that is, the third division of the 71st Army...

Division Commander Wang Tianrun just received a call from the Chief of Staff. After hanging up the phone, he looked sad.

Looking at the empty position in front of us...the Japanese might be coming in less than an hour.

"This battle... is not easy to win..."

"However, even if it is difficult to fight... we cannot surrender!"

'Conquering the enemy without fighting...that's what traitors do! We, the officers and men of the 71st Army, cannot do this...'

"Everyone is here... ready for me..."

"I have polished all the light and heavy machine guns... and set them up..."

"Mortars...infantry artillery...are all ready for me..."

"I'll also lay mines...bury more mines..."

"When the devils come later... everyone must attack me hard... let these devils go down on their own!"

The entire third division of the 71st Army is ready.

Just waiting for the arrival of the little devil... This battle is inevitable.

The position occupied by the Third Division is too conspicuous.... However, it must be occupied!

Therefore, a war is about to break out!

Soon, an infantry brigade of the Japanese came over carrying a tank squadron, a howitzer unit and a mountain artillery brigade....

However, they did not start attacking.

It seemed like he was planning something.

The commander of the Third Division was also confused when he saw this situation... What on earth were these devils doing?

"Grandma's... still haven't attacked... Are you asking me to attack them?"

"Damn... I gave them face..."

The commander of the third division couldn't help but cursed again.

Another ten minutes passed.

There was another roaring sound in the sky...

When the soldiers heard this... their expressions changed!

"not good!"

"This is the enemy's bomber force coming... Lie down... Lie down quickly... Don't raise your head and get hit by them..."

The commander of the third division shouted loudly.

Unexpectedly, the reason why these Japanese soldiers did not attack was because they wanted to bomb them!

This bombing is not an ordinary artillery bombardment...the bombings from planes come in tons and tons...

The grenade fired by a 150mm caliber howitzer weighs only 50 kilograms...

And a bomb is 1000 kilograms...

Equivalent to 20 artillery shells....

This Japanese plane can at least be equipped with 1 ton of bombs...

The 12 Japanese planes that came... at least had nearly 200 artillery shells...

This is equivalent to ten 10mm caliber howitzers firing twenty rounds in a row...

One can imagine such power...on the Chinese battlefield.

The power of the Japanese aircraft is ranked first. Not only can it break through the defense and offensive lines formed by the soldiers... it can also kill the heavy weapons of some troops.

For example, many 150mm caliber howitzers in the Battle of Songhu were basically killed...

However, for the independent column, they are still eager to meet the little devil's plane...

So many anti-aircraft guns, so many bombers and fighter jets are waiting for these little devils' planes...

That's still the case, in this case.

The Third Division of the 71st Army is about to suffer.

This highland... must be a fighting battle...

It must be a life-and-death battle...
