On June 1st, it was raining all the time, and it seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.

The Japanese Central China Expeditionary Force Command ordered the Sakai Detachment of the 6th Division to go south from Hefei to capture Anqing; at the same time, the Hatan Detachment, with the cooperation of the navy, to attack Anqing City on the west along the Yangtze River.

The 11th Fleet of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet has also entered the Yangtze River.

At this time, the 133rd Division of the Sichuan Army deployed by Yang Sen went to Chao County, Wuwei, Lujiang and other sides to resist the Japanese army's southward attack. Then he arranged the 134th Division along the river from Tongyang to Anqing, carrying out defense and defense to prevent the Japanese troops from advancing west along the river.

The officers and soldiers of some units of the 134th Division of Anqing were on guard against defense in this rainy and rainy weather.

"It's still raining today! I don't know when this ghost weather will end!"

Chen Jinsong, the platoon leader of the 3rd Company, smoked the cigarette in his hand and complained in a very depressed mood.

"Smoke less cigarettes. Now is the time when the Japanese army is approaching. No one knows when the Japanese will launch an attack!"

"And your troops, have you done your inspection today?"

"You are all relaxing like this, come and have some smoking, some chatting!"

"The place we stick to will be attacked by the Japanese troops at any time, so we must be prepared for everything!"

However, when the company commander Cao Jin warned with a serious face at the platoon leader of the 3rd Company, Chen Jinsong's platoon leader relaxed his vigilance.

"But my brothers have been very serious and vigilant during this period, guarding here. It's raining today, I think the Japanese won't attack! And we haven't heard any slightest sound from the Japanese attacking here. I just hope everyone can relax their nervousness and continue to protect the here with a little energy!"

Chen Jinsong, the platoon leader of the 3rd Company, was a little embarrassed and explained.

"I think you are too addicted to smoking. No matter how you and your subordinates relax, it's good. You must remember to do your own inspection and defense work first. I don't care about you for the rest. As long as you don't take away our nest for the Japanese!"

"Otherwise, even the sinners here will not be able to explain to the families of these soldiers around us! They all entrust all their lives to us to command the battle!"

“So our responsibility is still very high!”

Company Commander Cao Jin shook his head and said.

"Okay! I understand, company commander!"

"I don't know when this damn Japanese and the damn war will end!"

After hearing this, platoon leader Chen Jinsong quickly finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, then patted his beard and scumbag's face, and then began to continue commanding his troops and conducting city defense patrols.

"Yes! Damn Japanese, damn war, when will this damn war be over and drive all these damn Japanese out?"

"God!"

The moment when the platoon leader Chen Jinsong turned and left with the troops, the company commander Cao Jin was in a very complicated mood and complained.

But God didn't respond at all,

So after a moment, the company commander Cao Jin also led his troops to join the city defense inspection in a heavy mood.

......

......

And at this time,

Under the command of the new commander, Lieutenant General Oikawa Fushiro, the third fleet of the Japanese Navy gathered more than 40 warships, more than 10 commercial ships, and almost 90 motorboats. In addition, hundreds of wooden ships gathered on the periphery of the Madang Fortress.

Then, with the assistance of more than 60 Japanese aircraft from the first batch of the 3rd Flight Regiment of the Japanese Air Corps, an offensive air strike was launched from Wuhu to the river.

Batches of Type 97 fighter jets and Type 97 bombers also flew over the third fleet quickly. These Japanese aircraft groups did not bomb the National Army units set up at the East Suburb Airport in Anqing.

Instead, they went directly to bomb the civilian areas in Anqing City.

"What is that, sir!"

Soon, these daily aircraft groups had already appeared above the cloudy and rainy safety city.

"Yeah! This..."

When platoon leader Chen Jinsong led his Sichuan Army troops and continued to stick to the inspection post according to the order of company commander Cao Jin, he was suddenly stopped by one of his subordinates and asked.

Then he also looked towards the sky in the direction pointed by the other party, and then he also saw many black birds appearing in the gray sky.

He felt as if he saw many big birds in the sky.

"Not good! Find a place to hide! It's an air strike from the Japanese! Quick!"

Then in an instant, his face changed drastically and he shouted loudly.

And with his shouting, his troops suddenly became chaotic.

Then the dull engine sounds of the Japanese crew came quickly from the sky and came into their ears, buzzing.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

"Boom!"

......

......

In the flash, the Japanese aircraft group had already dropped dense aviation bombs and bombarded them in an indiscriminate manner.

One louder and another sound of explosions continued to rise and fall, accompanied by the deafening explosions in the house and the shrill sound of people.

Because after the Japanese aircraft group suddenly appeared, many Anqing civilians who had not had time to react, as well as the officers and soldiers of the 134th Division of the Sichuan Army, were also bombed, and were killed and injured.

In the rainy day, the entire Anqing City was filled with bombing fires, smoke filled the sky, and wailing sounds were everywhere.

"Bang!Bang!Bang!!!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!——"

......

......

At the same time, after the sudden launch of the Japanese air strike, the first and second wings of the Hatan Detachment, as well as the artillery gang, which had lurked in the Anqing area, were also ready to launch an attack.

While the troops of the 134th Division of the Sichuan Army were busy avoiding the bombing of Japanese aircraft groups, and while they had not yet noticed that the Japanese army troops had lurked over, the First Regiment of the Hatan Detachment dispatched the machine gunners of the First Brigade of the First Brigade, and quickly seized the commanding heights and entry points around the outside of Anqing City.

They were about to launch an attack immediately after their artillery troops blasted the gates of Anqing.

......

......

As the Japanese aircraft group bombed various city defense strongholds in Anqing City at the same time, the Japanese artillery team also roared and fiercely bombarded one after another of the artillery shells to the Anqing city gate, covering it with saturated artillery fire.

The well-trained and well-equipped Japanese soldiers held their breath and waited for the order to charge, and then they could launch a Zhucha-style charge and enter Anqing City in one go.

"Bang!"

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"——"

......

......

For a moment, guns and cannons were heard everywhere in the entire Anqing City, which was shocking.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack! Get ready for battle!"

"Boat!, fight back!!"

"It's the Japanese army troops that came. They took advantage of the air strikes of their Japanese aircraft group and rushed in. Fight back! Don't let the Japanese army kill in!"

"All the troops on the periphery, fight back and guard Anqing's periphery to the death. They will never be allowed to be captured by the Japanese!"

"Go and notify the division commander! Hurry!"

When the sound of guns and cannons outside Anqing City sounded, the company commander Cao Jin, who had found a shelter to avoid the bombing of the Japanese aircraft group, suddenly changed his face and roared at the top of his lungs.

"TuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTuTu

"Tukuikui!——"

"Bang!"

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"——"

…………

…………

However, the Japanese artillery bombing, the machine gun strafing of the army troops, and the dense shooting sound of rifles were still coming one after another.

For a time, the entire Anqing City and outside the city were in a state of war, and the situation was extremely critical.
