The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 239 Shinozuka Yoshio: Under the Great Reward, There Must Be a Brave Man (Part [-])
The killing machine that Huang Yu is going to build is well known, and anyone who knows about the Huaihai Campaign in future generations will know it.

In that battle, superiority in military strength, superiority in firepower, and superiority in terrain were all in the hands of the enemy.

In order to break open the enemy's tortoise shell and break into their positions, an engineer company commander used gasoline barrels and explosives to invent the famous Flying Thunder Cannon, commonly known as the "Unconscionable Cannon".

The shooting range is very short and the accuracy is poor, but because it is simple to make, easy to operate, and powerful enough, it can be used on a large scale in the Huaihai Campaign and achieved great results.

But it can be said that the Feilei Cannon made indelible military exploits in the Huaihai Battle.

The Jinniu Mountain in front of you is the tortoise shell carefully built by the Japanese army.

The Feilei cannon can knock open the tortoise shells of hundreds of thousands of troops, and it must also be able to knock open the tortoise shells of only three or four thousand garrisons in front of them.

In order to create a Feilei Cannon with better quality and higher shooting accuracy, Huang Yu specially transferred several engineers from the Taiyuan Arsenal.

They are good at calculation, and can control the effective range of the flying mine cannon by calculating the amount of propellant, and increase the shooting accuracy of the flying mine cannon.

While Huang Yu was busy producing Feilei cannons, the Devil planes from surrounding provinces were not idle either!

Yoshio Shinozuka gave them a death order.

We must find the hiding place of the Eighth Route Army and the convoy, attack them from the sky, weaken their strength, reduce the defensive pressure of the blockade garrison, and destroy all the military equipment stolen by the Independence Regiment.

"Weng buzzing..." A plane whizzed past the highway close to the ground.

Chief of Staff Li Wensheng hid in a ravine beside the road, his body was covered with thick thatch, and he did not dare to move.

There are six aerial bombs hanging on the belly of the plane. If they are exposed, the devils will blow up all six bombs and throw them all into the ravine.

It wasn't until the plane disappeared over their heads that Li Wensheng carefully climbed out of the ravine!

"Chief of staff, the search frequency of devil planes is too high...less than three hours after dawn, there are already five planes close to our scalps for aerial reconnaissance...on average, one plane comes every half an hour...in case a soldier is accidentally exposed If so, the entire convoy will be blown up."

Li Wensheng didn't reply, he quickly climbed up the small mound of dirt beside him, and raised his binoculars to look around.

A minute later, his eyes suddenly locked on the small woods two kilometers away.

Serious analysis: "The reason why the frequency of the devil plane's detection is so high is that they have not found the bombing target, and they are anxious, so they desperately search for us!"

"Since they are in such a hurry, then we will do what we can and prepare a target for them to bomb."

"In order to prevent the cars from breaking down halfway, each car is not fully loaded, so it should be no problem to free up two cars..."

"See the grove over there? Drive the two vacated cars into the grove, make a little camouflage, and deliberately expose the target when the Devil's plane passes by at low altitude!"

"Put a few hundred catties of explosives on the car. As long as the devils find the car, they will detonate the explosives during the bombing... The noise created is no less than the explosion of ammunition. The devils will definitely mistakenly think that they have successfully bombed a convoy, and then relax their search for us. Strength!"

"Weng buzzing..."

More than half an hour later, the roar of the plane reached Li Wensheng's ears again.

A black spot suddenly appeared in the sky at the end of the field of vision, and it grew bigger and bigger, slowly turning into a silver-white plane, whistling past everyone's heads.

The powerful air wave almost toppled the camouflage that was still on the car.

The pilot did not find any suspicious targets and could only continue forward with disappointment on his face.

Suddenly, a sparkling object caught the pilot's attention, flashed away, and quickly disappeared from view.

The ground is full of barren slopes and forests, so it is impossible to have reflective things.

But the pilot did see something reflecting in the woods not far away, indicating that there were things hidden in the woods that didn't belong here.

With a flash in front of his eyes, he immediately maneuvered the plane to dive towards the forest.

The huge fuselage roared past the forest against the treetops. The pilot stared at the ground, trying to find some clues...

Just when he was about to return disappointed again, a large and somewhat exaggerated bush came into his vision.

The soldier's intuition told him that there was something wrong with this bush.

First, the plane circled in the air, then suddenly dived, and rushed towards the target in a daze!

When it was about to touch the ground, the nose was suddenly raised to climb, and a powerful air wave was blown to the ground at the same time... The thatch covering the car body was instantly blown everywhere...

"It's a car... I found the convoy of the Eighth Route Army's transport equipment, and it's hiding in the woods below..." the pilot shouted excitedly.

Quickly turn on the radio and ask for help from nearby planes: "Headquarters... Headquarters... I found something here... Request support from other planes..."

In less than ten minutes, four planes gathered over the grove.

Fuel is limited, and they can't wait too long here, or they won't be able to get back to the airport.

In a short while, more than two dozen bombs were thrown into the grove by the plane.

Amidst the dense explosions, a more violent explosion suddenly sounded in the middle of the forest, and the fireball that rose up was like a mushroom cloud, twenty or thirty meters high.

The billowing thick smoke rose into the sky, rising to a height of [-] meters before stopping...

This different explosion instantly attracted the attention of all pilots.

"It was ammunition that exploded... We must have detonated the ammunition seized by the Eighth Route Army..." a pilot exclaimed excitedly.

The other pilots all showed an expression of approval, and they left the battlefield very satisfied with flying the plane.

At the Taiyuan Japanese Army Headquarters, Shinozuka Yoshio is deducing the next battle with his subordinates.

The results of the three consecutive deduction games were exactly the same: the artillery strength of the two sides was not much different, and both sides would be injured in the bombardment at the beginning of the battle, and there was no way to provide too much artillery support to the infantry!

After the decisive battle began, the Jinniushan garrison defended their positions, relying on favorable terrain and a large number of anti-gun holes and bunkers, successfully repelled the attack of the Eighth Route Army and blocked them in Jinniushan!

After the follow-up reinforcement troops were in place, they encircled the remnants of the Eighth Route Army and wiped them out. Only some Eighth Route Army stragglers took advantage of the chaos and fled!

Of course, the three brigades undertaking the blocking mission would also suffer heavy casualties in the battle, at least two infantry brigades would be lost.

Yoshio Shinozuka was very dissatisfied with the results of this deduction, feeling that the troops suffered too many casualties.

In the previous battle, the losses of the Shanxi garrison were already large enough...

If more than [-] people were lost in the next decisive battle, the direct losses of the Shanxi garrison in the entire sweep would exceed [-]. This price is definitely not something Yoshio Shinozuka can afford.

"Airplanes...we didn't include airplanes in our deduction just now!" Yoshio Shinozuka stared at the sand table and asked back.

"If our aviation troops from the surrounding provinces can find the main force of the Eighth Route Army and their artillery units during daytime operations, launch an attack from the sky, and severely injure them, the defensive pressure on the Jinniu Mountain Garrison will definitely be much smaller, and their casualties will also be much smaller!"

A staff officer who participated in the deduction reminded: "But we don't know if the aviation can find the main force of the Eighth Route Army and their artillery units!"

"The opponent is too cunning, he must be guarding against our air attack!"

"I think we must prepare for the worst in advance!"

Shinozuka Yoshio insisted on his own opinion, but there was no other way, so he answered bravely, "No, the aviation soldiers will definitely not let us down!"

"Your Excellency, Commander...good news...the reinforcement of our air force has paid off!" Communications Staff Officer Xing hurried over to report.

"As of now, they have discovered three convoys and two secret camps of the Eighth Route Army..."

"A total of [-] sorties were dispatched, [-] aerial bombs were used, and all targets were successfully destroyed!"

"During the air raid, the pilot saw a large amount of ammunition being detonated and the Eighth Route Army fleeing for their lives!"

"Totally achieve the bombing effect..."

The picture seen by the pilot's eyes must not be fake, Yoshio Shinozuka believed it [-]% to [-]% on the spot.

With a face full of excitement, he said: "The air raid convoy bombed all the military equipment, weapons and ammunition seized by the Eighth Route Army from Taiyuan, that's why the explosion happened!"

"Two camps, we have one company of Tibetan soldiers in one camp, and the aviation can also severely damage the Eighth Route Army with two companies."

"There are still five or six hours before dark, and it will definitely be no problem to destroy another five or six secret camps!"

"It means that the reinforcement of our air force can severely damage at least one regiment of the Eighth Route Army."

"It will definitely greatly reduce the combat pressure of the Jinniu Mountain defense forces and reduce their losses in battle!"

"Chief of Staff, immediately send a telegram to our reinforcements: The Shanxi Garrison Command thanks them and promises them that we will reward them with [-] oceans for destroying a Tibetan military point of the Eighth Route Army or killing a convoy!"

"Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man..."

"Inspired by money, their actions must be more passionate!"

At the former enemy headquarters of the Independent Regiment, radio operator Zhang Xuelin Xing hurried to Kong Jie and reported: "Regiment commander, the chief of staff has a telegram!"

"They used six cars and more than a thousand catties of gunpowder to deliberately expose the target, attracting devil planes to bomb, and successfully diverted their attention."

"Commander Shen of the First Battalion arranged a squad to set up a false garrison and successfully attracted the attention of the devils. They dispatched six planes and threw more than [-] bombs back and forth before retreating. catty……"

"The battalion commander of the third battalion also used false targets to attract five planes to bomb them..."

"The air raid is over, the devils gave up on the spot to investigate the hiding place of the third battalion!"

Kong Jie said happily: "You did a good job... Let the battalion commanders set up more false targets for the devils to blow up... In order to make the trick more real, I allow them to use some ammunition to blow up for the devils!"

After speaking, he suggested to Li Yunlong and Ding Wei: "You can also ask the troops to prepare some false targets to attract Japanese planes to bomb, so that Shinozuka Yoshio will mistakenly think that we suffered heavy casualties in the daytime air raids, and despise us..."

"Okay, maybe you can catch devils by surprise!"

"Get some fake guns and bad guns and let the devils blow them up, and let them believe that our artillery also suffered heavy losses in daytime raids!"

"After the artillery battle between the two sides starts, kill the other side by surprise!"
