Compared with Hanzhuang's air support, the sky over Taierzhuang was even more overwhelmed. It was the first time that the participating troops in the Taierzhuang battle could take off such a number of aircraft above their heads, and a huge fleet of hundreds of aircraft were patrolling back and forth in the air.∷∷,

Both Sun Lianzhong and Tang Enbo felt the benefit of being fully protected by their own fleets in the sky for the first time. Although there were more Japanese fleets above their heads than before, they saw those Northwest Air Force aircraft being staged with fierce battles that were no less than the ground.

"Red wolf, red wolf, at five o'clock, two animals. Turn towards the black bear, I will cover you." Xiao Yun's slightly plain voice came from the communication equipment to his comrades' ears.

"Received!" The pilot code-named Red Wolf responded.

Xiao Yun was flying the plane and carefully paid attention to the actions of the enemy planes. Seeing that one of the two enemy planes was turning to another place, Xiao Yun pulled the joystick. The fighter plane suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the other plane at an extremely tricky angle. The gap between the two sides was rapidly moving in.

"Caodan, what does this kid Xiao Yun want to do? Come back!"

When Chen Zhipeng saw Xiao Yun's actions, he was furious. Since Xiao Yun entered the flight team, Chen Zhipeng had wiped his butt several times. Without his cover, Xiao Yun had been shot down by Japanese aircraft at least ten times. After several months of combat, he forced a landing three times and lost a precious flying dragon fighter. For his own combat needs, Chen Zhipeng kicked Xiao Yun out and replaced his wingman. For Xiao Yun, a guy who would make trouble from time to time, let others worry.

However, Chen Zhipeng, who originally thought that he would save trouble by calling Xiao Yun out of his wingman, thought he could save himself, but after seeing Xiao Yun's quick and reckless behavior towards the enemy plane, Chen Zhipeng couldn't help but curse again.

"Go to die!" The Japanese pilot opened fire without hesitation when he saw the enemy plane rushing towards him.

However, while the Japanese pilot was smirking, the Flying Dragon 2 fighter jet driven by Xiao Yun suddenly rolled and then climbed quickly.

"No!" After seeing the enemy plane easily avoiding the bullets it fired, the Japanese pilot screamed in despair.

Da da

After both sides approached a relatively dangerous distance, Xiao Yun decisively launched an attack.

****'s bullet swept all the way from the Japanese aircraft's fuselage and hit the cockpit. The pilot who was shot was unable to control his plane anymore. The lost control of the Type 95 drew a straight line in the air and fell to the ground.

"This boy." Chen Zhipeng breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a false alarm. He couldn't help but think that Xiao Yun was too brave and was actually attacking at such a close distance. Once the attack failed, it would be very unfavorable for him. When both sides fought at close range, even experienced pilots would easily capsize in the gutter.

"I hit it!" Xiao Yun felt excited. This was the second Japanese plane he shot down. He almost died and died several times in the air battle. There were some useful and useless attacks. At this time, it flashed through his mind like a movie. Summarizing previous experience, Xiao Yun felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart. Perhaps air battles do not need to be circling and attacking in the distance as the instructor said. Although he was close to the danger of fighting, as long as the attack was accurate enough. After the attack, a considerable number of those seemingly deadly threats can be avoided. Moreover, the accuracy of the attack can be greatly improved.

Da da

This time, Xiao Yun attacked a Japanese bomber. Just like his previous offensive ideas, of course, before the attack, he was bound to observe the nearby enemy aircraft. Although he had some understanding of air combat in his heart, it did not mean that he could really find a different approach now.

"This kid is a little different." Chen Zhipeng, one of the few aces in the Northwest Air Force, soon discovered Xiao Yun's strangeness. He actually killed two Japanese planes in an air battle, completely changing his view of Xiao Yun.

There were hundreds or dozens of planes fighting in the air, and various planes rolled, dived, and climbed, and an extremely intense scene was staged above the heads of the ground troops of both China and Japan.

The planes in the sky are from time to time, like dumplings falling straight down from the sky.

"Fight well!" Although the battle on the ground was still intense at this time, the soldiers of the National Army on the ground cheered tremblingly. Even though the Japanese artillery fire was still fierce at this time, even if they were still facing the Japanese firepower advantage, watching many Japanese planes fleeing in the air, this feeling was never seen since the war began.

"You little Japanese, you are today!" Seeing another Japanese fighter plane coated with plaster flags crashing on the ground. These soldiers of the National Army who had suffered enough losses in the Japanese planes gritted their teeth and felt a refreshing pleasure.

At this time, all the ground troops of the National Army did not realize that the Northwest Air Force was like a pair of strong and powerful hands, supporting the sky above their heads.

"Kill!" The soldiers of the National Army in the entire Taierzhuang were full of morale and launched the most fierce counterattack against the Japanese army in various streets. The defenders could be seen on almost all positions. Whether it was Sakamoto, the Taierzhuang Expeditionary Army, or the Seya Detachment, they felt unprecedented pressure at this time.

While the Japanese firepower was weakened, some of the defenders even rushed to the positions of the Sakamoto Detachment and launched a fierce hand-to-hand combat. This is also one of the few times when a large number of regular troops were encountered, the defenders could break through the blockades and attack the Japanese positions.

After the West Northwest Air Force and the Central Air Force temporarily merged, more than 36 bombers bombed Sakamoto and Segaya detachments. On the day of the war, while the Japanese Sakamoto Detachment was fighting head-on with the defenders, the relatively surplus forces of the 20th Corps completely cut off the connection between the Japanese Sakamoto Detachment and the rear. At this time, the Sakamoto Detachment's ammunition reserves continued to decline in the fierce battle, and the ammunition carried by the army could not last long. At this time, the food and ammunition could not be obtained from the 5th Division in Linyi. Therefore, the Sakamoto Detachment had no choice but to ask for supplies from the Segaya detachment with shameless face.

That night, Sakamoto's detachment ordered the retreat, but at this time, there were more than a dozen military advisors from the periphery alone. At this time, the Japanese army had lost absolute air supremacy, and the Japanese ammunition and food supply in the encirclement began to become tense. The situation was already very serious for the Japanese army.

"Baga, ammunition, ammunition, ammunition, do I have enough ammunition?" After a part was released to the Sakamoto Detachment, Segaya Ki received a request for help from the Taierzhuang Expeditionary Army. Segaya Ki couldn't help but be angry. He still had some ammunition, but the extremely important oil was captured by the enemy by the Hanzhuang Railway Station, which was interrupted by the oil that should have been transported to the detachment. The limited oil in his hand was saved again and again, and then he was about to bottom out. At this time, there was no tank or armored vehicle in his hand that was filled with fuel. Otherwise, he would not have supported the counterattack of the National Army during the day.

"At this time, the Chinese army had already advanced to Nigou, near the west of Zhanshan Mountain, and the number of the Chinese Central Army appeared in the Zhanglou area. The Sakamoto Detachment is now surrounded by three sides in Xingjialou and Dagushan area. It is preparing to withdraw tonight. The Taierzhuang Expeditionary Army is not better than that of the Sakamoto Detachment. The current division headquarters ordered our army to temporarily maintain the current situation and wait for the main force to reinforce before breaking through." The staff officer next to him said calmly.

"Sustain the current situation for the time being? How to maintain it? The dozens of tanks we have in our hands now do not even have enough gasoline. If the main force of the Chinese army comes tomorrow, will the soldiers of the detachment be allowed to carry those steel coffins and retreat?" Seya Kiyoshi looked ferocious. This was the first time he had encountered such a difficult situation since he entered the battle of the Republic of China.

"But what should I do with the orders from the division troops? Also, the tanks and armored vehicles are waiting for the fuel transported from behind. Now they are withdrawn, but they cannot be completely transported away."

The staff officer hesitated. The reason why Isotani Ryosuke gave orders like this was naturally not that he was so selfless that he abandoned his troops to make Seishiro Hiroshiro Hiro. The reason was that the Segaya detachment had dozens of tanks, armored vehicles, two 155mm heavy artillery, various artillery and ammunition. The Taierzhuang Expeditionary Force was the most sufficient.

"Just let's keep it perfunctorily. Let's maintain it. Will we all sacrifice our lives for the Emperor here when the Sakamoto detachment withdraws from the encirclement? Taking advantage of the fact that the Chinese army's encirclement has not yet been completely killed, we must seize this only opportunity to withdraw, otherwise it will be too late to leave later." Setani Kei snorted and covered the Sakamoto detachment, but they used their own lives to cushion the latter. He could not do such a thing. If others do not serve themselves, they would be punished by heaven and earth.

"As for those tanks and armored vehicles, they can use all the fuel they can use, and they can't blow it up by themselves and leave it to the Chinese army." Seya Ki took a breath. If the main force of the front army could break through the enemy's obstruction and fight to Taierzhuang to join them, there would have been a war report. Now the other side is almost still standing still, and I think it has been a lot of resistance. Thirty-six strategies are the best.

In the dark night, too many artillery fired up, and the Japanese soldiers around him looked depressed and threw corpses or covers into the fire. They were about to retreat, so they could not take these things at all. As for the corpses of their comrades, they could not take them away.

"Shi Tianjun, let's go." The soldier with a scar on his forehead pulled his comrades next to him. Looking at the familiar tanks in front of him, his eyes full of reluctance.

Boom! Amid the explosions, six of the more than a dozen tanks were swallowed by the blazing flames. After the other cars vibrated, they flashed their heads and were extinguished soon. Although the damage was not thorough, the top was urged tightly, and guns and cannons were heard everywhere. The National Army was not idle at night and tried its best to compress their fronts and had to leave.

The Japanese army in the brigade was gradually moving away in the burning flames with a stream of depressedness.

After learning that Laigu's detachment had taken the lead in fleeing north, it accelerated its fleeing north that night. However, the Sakamoto detachment originally wanted to move northeast and meet with the main force of the 5th Division in Linyi, but at this time the northeast direction was blocked by the main force of the 20th Army. With the strength of the Sakamoto detachment at this time, it no longer had the strength to fight head-on with the main force of the 20th Army. After all, when there was shortage of food and bullets, the Japanese army was just some flesh and blood with strong training. Under the last resort, the Sakamoto detachment had to move northwest and retreat in the direction of the withdrawal of the Segu's detachment and move closer to the 10th Division.

At this time, it was impossible for a large number of Japanese troops to hide the movements of Li Zongren, the commander of the 5th War Zone. When he learned that most of the Japanese army fled north, Li Zongren immediately issued an order to pursue. Seeing that the main Japanese army in Taierzhuang was about to escape, Li Zongren was so angry that he cursed. Of course, the target of scolding was Tang Enbo.

"Tang Enbo, please take your mother. If this dog wasn't dragging it again and again, how could it be? If Seya and Sakamoto's detachment escaped in this battle, I would have to throw his face even if I fight to Wuhan!" Li Zongren was so angry that he tore the telegram in his hand to pieces.

"Okay, don't be angry. Tang Enbo is a confidant of Mr. Jiang and has the ability. Even if he is not against us, Mr. Jiang may not be able to deal with him." Bai Chongxi shook his head, "After all the Japanese army has not escaped. After the encirclement, the struggle will not be in vain. Besides, the retreat of the Sega Detachment may not be so smooth. We are not able to mobilize troops now, but there is a unit that should be able to make up for this leak."

"Which army is there?" Li Zongren frowned. Sometimes Bai Chongxi is a bit outstanding in military affairs. As a leader in the Guangxi clan, Bai Chongxi has always been his strong pillar in military affairs.

"Of course, the Northwest Army, who had been shouting slogans for a long time, and even ghosts had never seen them. They were supposed to appear in Taierzhuang, but they had a shot. With the speed of the Northwest Army's advance, even if they were not blocking the Japanese army's retreat, it should not be difficult to catch up with this Japanese army. During this period, I have studied the previous battles of the Northwest Army. They used many military trucks during long-distance raids."

"Okay, so let's say that, our plan has not been ruined yet."

Get it

The cavalry of the brigade moved forward quickly under the leadership of local villagers. The moonlight was shining. With the moonlight, the speed of these thousands of cavalry advanced was not slow.

"Quick, hurry!" Behind it was the brigade's truck.

Bang! As the back of the truck opened, soldiers jumped down from above one by one like dumplings. In the dark night, the headlights were everywhere.

"I'm very good at last, I finally grabbed the front of the Japanese army. Hurry up and lifted the machine gun down. I don't know when these Japanese soldiers will come here. The master's seat has orders. Since we left Sichuan, we have delicious food and drinks, clothes and quilts. But we have not achieved any achievements until now. We have been training in Henan for a long time. At this critical moment, if anyone is dragging his back and stools, don't blame me for turning against others."

"Room, don't worry, Jun Shang has been in charge for several months. If he doesn't kill a few Japanese, he can't even raise his head when he returns to Sichuan." The soldiers next to him answered. (To be continued.)
