"The kings all day long, open your eyes and look at the brothers below. Compared with them, you are not the same. Now, let the Japanese know what evil is to be punished and the blood is paid for! "When the squadron leader of the Sky Flying Team saw a tragic and shocking scene on the ground, he roared in a hoarse voice.??]

"Blood debt and blood repayment!"

"Oh Hara, maybe we are angry with an army that should not be irritated!" The staff officer looked at the amazing scene in front of him and couldn't help but murmur.

Ohara Chihiro also looked at the amazing scene in front of him silently, and was shocked by the actions of the Northwest Army. Such an army, such an army that was ready to die, and with the full support of the Chinese people, what else could defeat them? Ohara Chihiro felt a bad premonition. If these enemies could unite like this, perhaps they would not have come to this battlefield at all.

At the beginning, the base camp said that three months could solve the Republic of China, but now four years have passed. Not only has the Northwest Army not weakened, but has become stronger. In the past few years, the generals who have hit a wall in front of the Northwest Army have one after another. Seeing the scene in front of him, even a fanatical militarist like Ohara, he couldn't help but feel that such an army was leading these people and there was no possibility of conquering at all.

"Children, some of them are just children!"

Among the people escorted by the Japanese army, a 50-year-old man who looked just a thick body, looked at the amazing scene in front of him, and his gray beard on his lips couldn't help but tremble.

"Soldiers of the Northwest Army, you must kill more Japanese soldiers to let more people survive, open fire, open fire!" At this time, someone shouted in the crowd of people.

"People from the Northwest Army, open fire!" The chaotic voices of the people who were crying gradually gathered together.

"Friends, the Northwest Army is good. We can't watch them die for us like this. Everyone escapes, and their lives and deaths are all in peace. Even if they die unfortunately, the Northwest Army will avenge us and escape!" The old man roared in a trembling voice.

The people of the Republic of China were easily moved. When these people who were used to being oppressed saw this scene in front of them, they were touched. Under the reminder of the old man, a large number of people fled in scattered and gave up the Japanese positions in the rear. At this moment, human nature finally defeated the threat of death.

Da da

The Japanese machine guns swept at these people in horror at this time. They never thought that these people of the Republic of China, who were usually extremely cowardly, had the courage to face death directly.

"Report directly to the division and regiment headquarters, and the brigade is about to break up. However, I have to remind the division and regiment headquarters that the Chinese people are awakening and the base camp needs to face this opponent again." A trace of determination flashed across Ohara Zhi's face. He lost these people as cover. The reinforcements have not arrived for a long time. Ohara Zhi can already see the end of his troops.

"Fire the cannon!" Seeing the people scattered and fleeing, and the Japanese machine guns swept away like crazy, Gao Lingyun twitched in his heart and ordered.

Whoosh

The shells of the heavy artillery group once again broke through the air and landed on the Japanese back positions, and the drivers of the tank group who received the attack order also angrily aimed the tank guns at the brigade in front of them. The dispersed people deliberately gave up the front and fled to both sides. There were only scattered corpses of the people left in the middle. The Japanese machine guns swept the people mercilessly, even if they were injured by accident, they could no longer allow the Japanese attack.

boom!

A tank gun directly knocked the Japanese army in the machine gun trench into pieces with its weapons.

"Take revenge, kill!"

The Northwest Army, which had been suppressed for too long, was howling in a crowd.

Dozens of tanks were arrows, followed by a large number of Northwest Army, like a sharp blade, plunged into the Japanese defense line.

"It's not that I don't report it. The time has not arrived. These Japanese are so inhumane!" Mr. Zhou took the telegram from the 2nd Armored Brigade and the photos taken by the war correspondent on the table. After a while, his breath was still not gone.

"One day, the war will burn to the Japanese people's land, and when these Japanese soldiers' families are destroyed, they will know the hardships and traumas suffered by the Republic of China. However, true feelings are revealed in times of adversity, and the Propaganda Department will increase publicity efforts. This time it is a good topic, and the army is united." Jiang Li sighed.

"It's good. You must hurry up and shoot this type of movie. The war will burn to Japan. I don't know which year it will take." Mr. Zhou shook his head and said.

"It's not long before Xiong Dazhen's side has made great progress in the past few months. Our performance of the hidden dragon has stabilized. Some frequent mechanical failures have been gradually eliminated. The hidden dragon will soon soar into the sky. When the hidden dragon comes out, I will see what the Japanese army can use to block the counterattack of the Northwest Army. If the air supremacy is lost, the Japanese army is just a group of more powerful infantry. No matter how powerful the infantry is, it cannot stand the tank cluster in the northwest." Jiang Li shook his head and said.

"What? The Qianlong has stabilized? When will mass production be carried out? Why don't I know?" Mr. Zhou asked in surprise.

"I just got the news. The aircraft manufacturer has specially opened a Qianlong production line, with the highest level of confidentiality. Now it produces three aircraft per month, and it takes less than two or three months to form a flight squadron. I have already reported to the leader that with the Qianlong's service, the original combat plan has become somewhat conservative. This year, I plan to make the movement bigger, and now I can further expand the scale of the army. Although the new recruits are not good at fighting, it is still enough to assist in the order in the rear. The area controlled by our party will expand rapidly in the future."

"You are good at military affairs. By the way, I came to Luoyang this time and I have to discuss something with you. The Soviet Union invited the leader to Moscow. Although the leader did not make a direct statement, the Soviets mentioned it several times. What do you think about this?" asked Mr. Zhou.

"The Soviet Union is now unable to protect itself, so naturally I remember that we are here. According to my opinion, I just don't need to pay attention. Moreover, the Northwest Army will go north and will likely have a strife with the Soviet Union in the future on the issue of Outer Mongolia. Helping the other party now is tantamount to seek trouble. However, Britain and the United States have repeatedly urged to send a force to Yunnan for training for a period of time. One is to lay the foundation for future southward combat, and the other is to further spread the influence of the Northwest to the southwest. Chairman Jiang cannot be more beautiful than before. First, inside and then outside, unify the domestic period. After the scale of the latest weapons and equipment in the Republic of China has expanded, they will have the confidence to get involved in the game of the great powers." Jiang Li said. "It's still a long time to be unified now."

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss with the leader. Also, I'll see what the improved Qianlong has reached." Mr. Zhou nodded and smiled, and quickly threw his worries behind him. Although he had a high look at Northwest Airlines before, he didn't think he could go to the forefront of this era. However, from the current situation, even in the European war, it was still the world of propeller aircraft. Japan's single-wing aircraft was in new service. At this time, the Northwest had already stepped into the jet dynasty with one foot. Although the equipment volume was not large, the technological leadership and the emergence of new aircraft were enough to greatly shorten the time of the War of Resistance. Mr. Zhou never felt that victory was so close to the Northwest.

While the aircraft manufacturer in the rear was working overtime to build fighters, the Tenglong fighter also showed excellent combat performance in air combat. Even if the Northwest strives to produce the submarine dragon, the production foundation of this brand new jet aircraft is too weak, and the performance is repeatedly improved, and the increased output is not high. Relatively speaking, the Flying Dragon and Tenglong are still the main combat forces in the Northwest.

Soon, the Northwest passed the request of Britain and the United States, and sent a three infantry division, an independent heavy artillery regiment, and a tank battalion mainly composed of Avengers. The 15th Army, a mixed-organized independent army entered Yunnan. However, when the 15th Army arrived, the main force of the National Army's battle into Myanmar was defeated and retreated to the Wild Renshan. The Japanese army successfully controlled the railway station and cut off the Yunnan-Burma Railway and Highway. To this end, the United States, China and Britain once again opened a hump route to transport materials and personnel.

The 15th Independent Army led by Yang Yaofeng did not enter the command area according to the US orders, but stopped in the tropical rainforest on the border between the Yunnan and Myanmar. Although Britain and the United States repeatedly requested, the 15th Army did not obey the British and American arrangements like the National Army. The Northwest did not use the lives of soldiers to please foreigners. During this period, the Japanese army was able to ravage the entire Southeast Asia and occupied most important areas with thunder. However, the Japanese army was already quite dispersed at this time. The appearance of the Northwest Army in Yunnan also aroused the great vigilance of the Japanese army.

Two U-type submarines were built in Chongqing, one with a shallow-water gunboat of more than 90 tons, and when they began to test the waters to build warships. Sun Liren commanded the main force of the 13th Army, using independent heavy artillery regiments and a tank battalion to attack Linying, and at the same time, he also drew a motorcycle infantry regiment, a tank battalion, and a mixed team of thirty tanks and thirty tanks to detour Wadian. He intercepted a Japanese corps in the field. He took advantage of the aviation advantage and under the joint attack of four or five caucao attack aircraft and more than ten Xifeng bombers, more than seventy tanks, assault guns, and more than 30 armored vehicles directly defeated a Japanese infantry regiment.

After winning the battle in Wadian Town, the detour detachment did not stop. Instead, it directly attacked the Japanese airport in Chenzhuang, destroying more than ten Japanese aircraft that were stationed on the ground with artillery fire. Then the detour detachment shot back and cut into the middle of the Mule River and Linying County. Sun Liren directly dispersed a Japanese detachment with one army and showed the momentum of annihilation of the main force of the Japanese detachment, which was rare on the battlefield in North China. So far, Sun Liren's plan has been mostly successful. At least without enough reinforcements, it is almost a foregone conclusion to wipe out the Hirata detachment.

Facing the assault of tens of thousands of people, 200 tanks and assault guns, supplemented by nearly 100 snow leopard armored vehicles, the Japanese Hirata Detachment, with only six or seven thousand troops, was cut off from the retreat route. In order to completely annihilate the Japanese army, Jiang Li drew an infantry division from the Sichuan Army and a cavalry division of the army. The main force of the 3rd Army in Yang Hucheng was also beginning to move south.

After several months of fighting, the ice and snow in Henan Province had melted. As the temperature rose, it provided certain examples for the Central Plains Field Army. At this time, the army's strength of the Central Plains Field Army increased to nearly 200,000. In addition to Sun Liren's Independent 13th Army, more than 200,000 people went south along Pinghan Road, and the Pingtian Detachment was submerged in hundreds of thousands of troops.

The Central Plains Field Army's combat operations of such a large scale are very powerful to point directly to Wuhan. The launch of the first shallow water gunboat in Chongqing and several troop transport ships all show that the Northwest Army has the intention to cross the river to fight. No matter how powerful the joint fleet is, it must go deep into the hinterland and be baptized by the Northwest Air Force in the Yangtze River. Unless the top leaders of the Japanese navy burn their brains, they will do such things.

Because the Central China Front Army was responsible for suppressing the Chiang Kai-shek Central Army in the south, and also used some of its troops to restrain the Northwest Army in the Central Plains, the purpose of capturing Zhengzhou and the North China Front Army in the Central Plains was not achieved, and it encountered a large-scale counterattack from the Northwest Army. Especially Yang Hucheng and Sun Liren had more than 200,000 tanks, and armored vehicles were pressed over, and the Japanese army in the southern section of Henan could not stand it. The burden on the heads of the Central China Front Army suddenly became much heavier. At this time, the main forces fighting in China were North China and Central China. South China could not be transferred at all. They were responsible for supporting Southeast Asia at any time, and could not be able to draw enough troops. Therefore, Matsui Ishione could only put his ideas on the North China Front Army, which had the strongest troops.

Although Tian Junliu felt that it was a bit inappropriate, he repeatedly considered it, and combined with some instructions from the base camp, he dispatched two divisions to go south, joined the sequence of the Central China Front Army, and entered the Zhumadian area to block the Northwest Army going south. In addition, he strengthened the defense in eastern Henan and northern Anhui to deal with the counterattack of the Zhao Tieshu Army. The current situation is indeed not good for the North China Front Army. Since the Japanese army headed south, the navy also consumed some ships, and a large amount of industrial rubber, grain, and oil in the South Ocean had to be transported back to Japan by ship. Just a Borneo oil field, the machinery transported over there and at least a few million tons of crude oil a year would have to squeeze out a large amount of transportation capacity. Therefore, the need for shipbuilding exceeded all demand.

In addition, in order to cope with the threat from the United States, the navy, which once affected the shipbuilding plan due to the war of aggression in China, also increased its efforts in shipbuilding, especially aircraft carriers. At this time, Japan's annual steel production was less than 6 million tons, so the share distributed to the 6th Army was constantly squeezed. The 6th Army, including the Northeast Army, North China, Central China, South China, and Southeast Asia combat troops in several directions.

The insufficient steel production directly restricted the production of Japanese arms at this time, especially in the supply of tanks, armored vehicles, and various types of artillery. At the same time, the annual steel production in the northwest has exceeded 40,000 tons with the supply of small and medium-sized iron ore in southern Sichuan, Baotou, and some small and medium-sized iron ore in the northwest, and it is still growing rapidly. Every month, there have been more than 100 tanks every month. Assault guns have stepped down from the production line and quickly strengthened the combat troops on the front line. The Northwest Army's artillery output is also rapidly increasing. The Japanese army's previous relatively advantageous artillery advantage is also rapidly approaching. (To be continued.)8
