In a small earthen house, Zhang Guangzhong, commander of the 19th Army of the 13th Group Army of the Shanxi-Sui Army, was furious on the phone.
"Shi Zuoheng, I don't want to hear your casualty figures. I only want Weijiazhuang. If I can't take Weijiazhuang, you are the only one asking me!"
"Military seat... the little devils' position was established very solidly. They placed a large group of troops there. The brothers fought very hard. Our division suffered more than 600 casualties this morning alone. Shi Jinwu (February 1st)
The Commander of the Fifth Brigade) has called me three times to request artillery fire and air support, but the support has not arrived for a long time. We are having a very difficult time fighting."
Just when Zhang Guangzhong was about to speak, the microphone was snatched away by a big hand. Then Wang Jingguo's voice was heard next to him: "Don't you fucking fart. You can't fight without air support. Who can get used to you?"
Damn you, Shi Zuoheng, I’m telling you, if you can’t take down Weijiazhuang before this evening, I will remove you!”
"Snapped!"
The microphone was hit hard on the machine and made a loud sound.
Wang Jingguo looked unhappy and said: "It's so outrageous. On weekdays, when we need supplies, military pay, and soldiers, our hands are faster than the others, but when it comes to serious matters, none of them can fight."
Looking at Wang Jingguo's angry look, Zhang Guangzhong advised: "Commander, you don't know what our Shanxi-Sui army is like. During the Battle of Xinkou in 1937, we concentrated thirty-one divisions with nearly thirty
Thousands of people, while the Japanese army had three divisions of more than 70,000 people. The two sides fought for a month, but in the end we lost.
Now, more than three years later, it is already very good that we can suppress the Japanese army to this level, which is enough to prove that our dormancy in recent years is effective!"
"it works?"
Wang Jingguo sneered, "Let me ask you, if there were no aircraft from the Liantai Flying Group to assist, could your 19th Army capture Nanhuaihua so quickly? Can the 33rd Army capture Caijiagang?"
Zhang Guangzhong stopped talking. Without the help of the Liantai Flying Brigade, the 19th Army would never have been able to capture Nanhuaihua in one day, even with the help of the heavy artillery regiment.
Wang Jingguo continued: "According to the report from the Liantai Militia, yesterday alone, they dropped more than 100 tons of bombs. It can be said that Nanhuaihua and Caijiagang were bombed down by people with aerial bombs. We really want to fight them."
If it takes less than five days or even a week, it will definitely be impossible to get it. Now, do you still think that the hibernation of these years is useful?"
Zhang Guangzhong blushed and lowered his head after being told that. Although he was very unconvinced, he also knew that Wang Jingguo was right.
Compared with the current Jinsui Army in 1937, the combat effectiveness has actually declined instead of rising. What I said just now is actually just putting money in my own face.
Seeing Zhang Guangzhong who lowered his head and said nothing, Wang Jingguo sighed, "Okay, you don't have to be sad. It's not your fault that our Jinsui Army is like this now. After all, there is no Taiyuan Arsenal.
The wealth of the family is getting smaller and smaller. If it weren't for the fact that Chief Yan had been working with Gao Hongming for more than a year... that's all.
How about this? I will go out of my way to contact the Liantai Flying Group and see if they can allocate some aircraft to assist us?"
After saying that, he walked to the radio station not far away and directly contacted the Liantai Flying Brigade...
At an altitude of five thousand meters, a fleet of twelve Stuka dive bombers was flying slowly. Although the engine kept roaring, the jumo211dr engine with only 880 horsepower was struggling.
Life can only allow a six-ton dive bomber to sail at a speed of 320 kilometers per hour.
The plane piloted by Xue Shaogong flew in the front position. Generally speaking, this position is usually occupied by the pilot or commander with the highest level of driving skills.
Yes, after a few months of short study, the two friends Xue Shaogong and Huang Kebiao were assigned to two different aircraft types respectively. By coincidence, they also served as the captains of the fighter squadron and the dive bomber squadron respectively. Perhaps
This is why people often say that birds of a feather flock together.
Xue Shaogong looked around boredly, and then yawned. Flying is a very physically demanding thing.
This was already his third sortie today, and even though he had good physical strength, he felt a little tired.
He took out a piece of chocolate, tore open the package, put it in his mouth and chewed it. The slightly bitter and sweet cocoa butter entered the intestines and stomach along the esophagus, and he felt a lot more energetic.
At this moment, a slightly high-pitched voice sounded in the headset: "Black Crow Squadron, we have flown over Weijiazhuang and no enemy planes have been found. You can carry out bombing."
"Understood!" Xue Shaogong suddenly became energetic and pressed the button of the microphone: "Fat man, you have to look over our heads for us. I don't want to be stabbed in the butt by the Japanese during the bombing."
Fatty is a nickname given to P47 fighter pilots by bomber pilots, mainly because the shape of the P47 is so unique, round like a milk bottle.
"Don't worry, as long as we still have a plane here, we won't let the devils hurt you."
Xue Shaogong seemed to be able to see the way the other party curled his lips when he spoke. He laughed loudly and then connected the channel of the whole squadron: "Brothers, the brothers of Jinsui Army are watching us below. Please cheer up.
If anyone dares to fall off the chain, don’t blame me for dealing with him! Brothers, start giving the little devil some color!"
"Understood!" The same voice came from the headset almost at the same time.
Following Xue Shaogong's order, the Stuka squadron lowered its altitude to two thousand meters. At this altitude, they could already see the situation on the ground more clearly.
"Sir...the brothers of the Jinsui Army are attacking the Japs?" At this time, the machine gunner in the back seat let out an exclamation.
"I saw it." Xue Shaogong naturally saw it too.
At this time, looking down from the sky, we can see that countless Jinsui Army soldiers wearing blue military uniforms are attacking a Japanese position built on a hill like a tide. However, the resistance of the Japanese army is tenacious.
The machine guns kept pouring tongues of fire around them, and a Jinsui Army soldier fell on the path of the attack.
Not only that, the Japanese grenades and mortars continued to fire artillery shells towards the front of the position from hidden places in the rear. One shell after another continued to explode in front of the position, raising bursts of gunpowder smoke.
Seeing the casualties of the Jinsui Army, Xue Shaogong pursed his lips and said into the microphone: "Brothers, it's time for the bombing. I'll go first, and you can follow later!"
