my bright sword career

Chapter 254 Unexpectedly
Seeing Sun Chu's painful appearance when he left, Gao Hongming couldn't help showing a happy smile.

Yan Laoxi is indeed worthy of being a well-known big dog. Even if he raised the price three times, the other party still agreed. He would pay for a week from the moment he opened his mouth, and said that if there was a stalemate, he would add more time. Such a generous person these days Party A is running out.

Don't look at Gao Hongming's constant cry of poverty just now, the P47 Thunder fighter jet and the Stuka are indeed so expensive, but they can't stand the cheapness of the weapons store. One hundred thousand oceans is enough for him to buy a dozen or twenty aircraft, okay? As for the weapons Ammunition, spare parts, and aircraft fuel are even cheaper, almost equal to giving away for nothing. After all, the most expensive thing is the training of pilots.

And the arrival of Sun Chu is exactly what Gao Hongming wanted. The training of pilots is a long and costly process. An air force that has not been baptized in actual combat can only be regarded as a flower in a greenhouse. Why did the pilot Gao Hongming refuse? Anyway, they are fighting devils. It doesn't matter where they fight, but the ground staff at the airport may have to work harder.

"Come on!"

"Here!" Accompanied by Gao Hongming's birth reason, a tall and burly figure like a bear appeared at the door immediately.

"Prepare the car and follow me to the flying brigade."

"understand!"

February 1941, [-] (the sixth day of the first lunar month)
A shocking piece of news suddenly broke out among Chinese people who had just finished the Chinese New Year. Yan Xishan announced to the invited journalists and celebrities from all walks of life in Kenanpo that from now on, the No. Launched an attack, vowing to take the shame of Fu Xinkou's failure in the battle of Xinkou four years ago.

As soon as the news came out, everyone's first reaction was to suspect that there was something wrong with their ears, and the second reaction was that Yan Laoxi was crazy.

What is Yan Xishan's personality?

This guy is purely a useless character. Even if he stabs someone with a knife, he has to think about where to stab and how hard to use. Such a person would take the initiative to attack the Japanese, so abnormal The matter was no less than the sun rising from the west. For a while, even Chairman Jiang, who was far away in Chongqing, quickly ordered the special attack of the military commander and the Central Commander in Shanxi to find out the reason and see what kind of medicine was sold in this old Yan's zucchini.

However, compared with the high-level people, the response of ordinary people is much more enthusiastic.

In 40 and 41, it was the most difficult time for China's Anti-Japanese War. On the frontal battlefield, the national army retreated steadily and most of the country fell one after another. A large-scale bombing was carried out, and for a while the whole world was shrouded in the shadow of bombing.

As an ally of Germany, Japan is naturally more arrogant. Although Gao Hongming led the Liantai militia to severely damage the No. 40th Division, the [-]th Division, and the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army a few months ago, for Japan, which has junior reserves It is said that the lost soldiers will be quickly replenished by them, and it will only take a few months for them to regain combat effectiveness.

Moreover, the Japanese also sent people to reach an agreement with the Chongqing government. From now on, the two sides will ban the use of chemical weapons. For this reason, Chongqing also sent people to inform Gao Hongming, hoping that he can abide by the agreement made by both parties.

Gao Hongming agreed after thinking about it. Chemical weapons are double-edged swords. Although they are very fun to use, they can easily hurt themselves. It was the Chinese military and civilians who suffered the most. Since the Japanese made this request on their own initiative, he agreed to it.

Seeing that Gao Hongming agreed not to use chemical weapons again, the last shred of fear of the Japanese towards Gao Hongming was completely gone.

In their view, no matter how strong Gao Hongming is, he is at best a local militia. Without chemical weapons of mass destruction, he is no match for the Imperial Japanese Army anyway. It will be a matter of time before he can be eliminated, which is why The reason why the First Army dared to attack Yan Xishan a few days ago.

What Yoshio Shinozuka didn't expect was that this seemingly perfect plan fell short because of the sudden appearance of the Rentai Flying Brigade.

Not only that, but also enraged Yan Xishan, this Shanxi old man known as a tumbler dared to take the initiative to attack the Imperial Japanese Army, it really turned against him.

Under such circumstances, the World War II zone took the initiative to stand up and launch an attack on the Japanese army. In the eyes of the Chinese people, this was a signal for a counterattack. For a while, the people of the whole country began to boil.

十六日上午，晋绥军No.13集团军麾下的No.19军和33军分别在集团军司令王靖国和副司令陈长捷的亲自指挥下从两翼对忻口发起了突然攻击，为了这次战斗阎锡山还出动了被他视若珍宝的No.11和12两个炮团。

You must know that after these years of anti-Japanese war, the remaining two artillery regiments are Yan Xishan's treasures, equipped with Jin 18-style 88mm field guns, Jin-made 150mm howitzers and Jin-made 36-type 75mm mountain guns. There are a total of 86 artillery pieces, which are under the jurisdiction of the war zone commander's department on weekdays. Without Yan Xishan's order, no one can mobilize a single soldier.

This time, Yan Xishan actually sent them out to pay Xinkou, which is enough to show the importance he attaches to this battle.

Stationed in Xinkou is the Tenth Brigade of the Japanese Army, which has two infantry regiments 97 and 98, as well as an engineering brigade and an artillery brigade.

The [-]th Brigade, which was suddenly attacked, was suddenly attacked by the Jinsui Army, which was several times larger than itself. The brigade leader, Major General Kosuke Kohashi, did not panic. While reporting to Shinozuka Yoshio calmly, he ordered the troops to stand firm , and called for air support.

In his view, although the strength of the Jinsui Army is several times that of his, the Imperial Japanese Army not only occupies a favorable terrain, but also has air support and cover. Under such favorable circumstances, the Tenth Brigade insisted on ten Half a month is not a problem at all. If he plays well, he can even lead his troops to counterattack and severely damage the Jinsui Army on the opposite side.

It cannot be said that Kosuke Kohashi's idea is wrong, because according to the normal situation, it is indeed the case. The Jinsui Army... No, it can be said that the biggest shortcoming of the Huaxia Army today is that there is no air cover, and the Huaxia Army lacks air power. When attacking Japanese air power, most of the time there is no way to fight back, but this time Kosuke Kohashi was wrong.

As soon as the battle port started, he received calls from two regiment captains, saying that they were bombed violently by Huaxia planes. Forcing Weijiazhuang and Jiehepu, once these two places fall, the gate of Xinkou will be opened, and the soldiers of the Jinsui Army will also approach Xinkou.
