As soon as the Japanese's "high fire" moves, if the Eighth Route Army does not counterattack, it goes without saying what will happen next... Liyuan Airport will soon be in danger.
Wang Xuexin looked at his watch, the time was eight o'clock at night.
Wang Xuexin thought for a moment and couldn't help but cursed: "What an insidious devil!"
At first, Chen Songyong didn't understand what Wang Xuexin meant by his scolding, but when he thought about it more deeply, he soon understood: the Japanese were planning to kill the Eighth Route Army as soon as they came up, without giving the Eighth Route Army any time to react!
Only Zhang Zongping was still confused after hearing this, and couldn't help but ask: "Captain, is there any special significance for the Japanese to move out at this time?"
Chen Songyong explained on his behalf: "Controller Zhang, think about it: why did the Japanese choose to suddenly send out the 'people with high fire' this night?"
"Hide people's eyes and ears?" Zhang Zongping said: "Use the cover of night to prevent our army from discovering?"
Wang Xuexin replied: "You can say that, but this is not their main purpose!"
"That's..." Apart from that, Zhang Zongping couldn't think of any other intention that the Japanese had in doing this.
Wang Xuexin analyzed: "How many hours will it take for the Japanese to push the 'Human Fire' forward dozens of kilometers? Then how many hours will it take to set up the launcher and prepare for launch? It will be almost early morning..."
Hearing this, Zhang Zongping's eyes widened and he said "Oh": "What the leader means is that the enemy's 'Human Fire' will be launched before dawn as soon as they are dispatched?"
"Of course!" Chen Songyong replied: "I think Okamura Neiji must have also considered that there will be reconnaissance personnel deployed by our military to the west of the steel plant, so it will be difficult for them to escape from our military's intelligence network with every move they make.
.In order to ensure the safety of "people who are high-handed", the Japanese must kill "people high-fire" in the shortest possible time.
Fire' is launched... Early morning is the best time for them to launch. They launch before dawn so that 'High Fire' will not be intercepted. As long as they calculate the time well, when 'High Fire' flies over Liyuan Airport
As soon as the sky gets brighter, the Japs will use high firepower to bomb our Liyuan Airport accurately!"
What Chen Songyong said is what Wang Xuexin thought of.
In this way, the devils will be in an invincible position no matter what the situation is.
For example, the Eighth Route Army's fighter planes at Liyuan Airport were transferred in time... Although this could prevent the fighter planes from being bombed, it did not matter much to the Japanese. As long as the Liyuan Airport was destroyed so that fighter planes could not take off and land, then the Japanese's "zero
"War" can quickly take over the air control over Liyuan Airport, and then the day when Liyuan Airport will not be repaired.
In other words, the Japanese planned to use "human-powered high fire" and fighter planes to jointly suppress the Eighth Route Army's airport, making it unable to retreat and unable to take off for combat operations.
On the other hand, the Eighth Route Army...
Because the Japanese's "Human High Fire" is prepared to launch as soon as it comes up, and a launching position is randomly selected, and then the "Human High Fire" is ready and launched within a few hours.
So, what if the Eighth Route Army has a tight intelligence network?
What if the Eighth Route Army knew that the "Ren Cao Gao Huo" had advanced and even knew the launch base of the "Ren Cao Gao Huo"?
Did the Eighth Route Army have time to destroy it?
Since the Eighth Route Army did not know the Japs' "Human Cao Gao Huo" base beforehand, they only knew the exact address when the Japs' convoy stopped and the launch pad was set up.
At this time, it was only a few hours before the Japanese launched the "Human Fire".
Is it possible for the Eighth Route Army's ground forces to arrive at their destination within a few hours and break through their defenses to destroy the launch base?
Basically impossible!
Therefore, from this moment on, it was almost certain that Liyuan Airport would be bombed by the Japanese with "high fire".
Chen Songyong immediately thought, aren't they at Liyuan Airport?
Then his expression changed and he said to Wang Xuexin: "Captain, should we retreat?"
Wang Xuexin shook his head.
It stands to reason that Wang Xuexin should retreat, because the power of "human fire" is not comparable to that of Japanese bombers. They will blow up all valuable buildings and even caves in sight.
Wang Xuexin's headquarters is located in an underground fortification next to the airport. It is a very ordinary anti-gun cave, and it may even be collapsed by the earthquake.
But Wang Xuexin did not intend to do this.
Because these few hours are critical hours.
The retreat of the headquarters will most likely mean that it will be unable to conduct normal frontline operations.
Just when Wang Xuexin was hesitating, Zhang Zongping took a telegram and reported: "Captain, the commander ordered you to retreat immediately! The command can be temporarily taken over by the headquarters! The safety of the aviation regiment must be guaranteed!"
It turned out that after Zhang Zongping listened to Chen Songyong's analysis, he immediately reported the changes in the battle situation to the headquarters.
As soon as the commander heard that Liyuan Airport was in danger, the first thing he thought of was to withdraw the fighter planes and regimental commanders.
In the words of the chief: "Airplanes and airports are a small matter, so we can keep the green hills intact and don't worry about running out of materials to burn. But we must ensure the safety of Commander Wang! If anything happens to him, I will take it upon you!"
Wang Xuexin had to listen to the commander's order, so he immediately ordered his subordinates to organize their equipment.
In addition, Wang Xuexin planned to move the radio station to a car and evacuate while commanding the operation.
But when I think about it, it feels wrong... What if Okamura Neji knows that Wang Xuexin's headquarters is at Liyuan Airport?
What if Okamura Neiji expected that Wang Xuexin would retreat at this time?
What will he do?
Thinking of this, Wang Xuexin felt horrified. He felt that he seemed to have underestimated Okamura Neji. This guy's conspiracy was closely linked, and if he was not careful, he would fall into his trap.
"Stop!" Wang Xuexin stopped his busy subordinates.
Zhang Zongping thought that Wang Xuexin still didn't want to withdraw, so he came up to persuade him: "Commander, if you don't withdraw, it will be too late! We have our battle plan at the headquarters and they are under their command. What else do you have to worry about in this battle..."
Wang Xuexin shook his head and said: "I'm not worried about this. The Japanese's mainland advance team often goes deep into the hinterland of our army, specifically attacking our army's headquarters to paralyze our army's command... From the time the Japanese invaders penetrated deep into the hinterland of our army, there have been two
It's been more than a month, right? Do you think it's possible that the Japanese advance team to the mainland has been deployed near Liyuan Airport?"
When Wang Xuexin said this, Chen Songyong and Zhang Zongping were shocked.
This is indeed something they did not expect. This is Ningxia, a country with high mountains and long roads. It is more than 200 kilometers away from the steel plant in a straight line. The actual distance is at least thousands of kilometers. Can the Japanese mainland advance team be deployed here?
but……
The most unlikely things are often more likely to happen on the battlefield.
Especially at this time, Wang Xuexin planned to retreat while commanding from the car... If so, being ambushed by the enemy would be a narrow escape!
