Taiyuan Airport is more than two kilometers away from the outer city of Taiyuan City. It is a military fortress completely isolated from Taiyuan City.
Cheng Xiao led the guard battalion, cavalry company, and artillery battalion field artillery company, and went directly to the vicinity of several fields at ten o'clock in the evening.
"Brigadier Commander, there are mines and barbed wire everywhere in other directions. It's very difficult to sneak in quietly!"
"Then let's attack head-on!" Cheng Xiao made the decision without much hesitation!
"The entire airport's garrison and air defense forces total more than a thousand people. We have so many field artillery, and we are only attacking the airport tonight, so we have plenty of time to deal with them and consume them!"
"Artillery, aim at all the gun towers and commanding heights around the field, kill the Japanese inside, cover the guard camp and rush in!"
"Boom!" The six field guns roared not long after, and the violent sound of the cannon instantly broke the tranquility of Taiyuan City and reached the ears of everyone in Taiyuan City.
The six screaming shells directly hit the two bunkers that the Japanese had erected at the main entrance of the battlefield.
In the violent explosion, the masonry turret was blown to pieces in an instant, and the Japanese inside were buried in the ruins.
"Yes, just fire like this, one point after another!" Cheng Xiao was very satisfied with the performance of the field artillery battery.
"Woooo!" As soon as he finished speaking, a piercing alarm sounded at the airport.
In an instant, the airport, shrouded in darkness with only a few stars and lights, became brightly lit.
"Brigadier, the Japs are all out and are firing at the positions around the airport!" Zhong Yusheng, the guard battalion commander next to Cheng Xiao, reminded him with an eager look on his face.
"The artillery continues to fire, and the guard battalion presses forward. Use your firepower advantage to kill several Japanese soldiers on the runway. Don't rush to fight when you encounter resistance. We have artillery in our hands, and there are enough artillery shells. We can directly bombard them with artillery.
!”
"Yes, brigade commander!" Zhong Yusheng, who rarely went to the battlefield, immediately answered.
Then he personally held a machine gun, loaded the bullets, waved his big hand and shouted.
"Follow me from the guard camp, with machine guns at the head, and let the Japanese have a taste of what firepower superiority is!"
After saying that, Cheng Xiao led his troops and rushed towards the gate of the airport, which was bombed into ruins.
The independent brigade is the best-equipped unit in the military region, and the guard battalion is the best-equipped unit in the independent brigade.
While the infantry platoon of the main force only has one machine gun, the guard battalion has reached the configuration of the infantry platoon with two machine guns.
When passing through the Japanese and puppet defense line in Xinzhou, all the machine guns captured by the troops were strengthened into the guard camp, directly reaching the super luxurious configuration of the infantry squadron's first airport.
As soon as Zhong Yusheng charged, more than thirty machine gunners from the entire battalion carrying clearing weapons immediately followed.
"Baga, the enemy has begun to attack. Get into position quickly and be sure to stop them!" Behind the ruins of the turret, seventy or eighty Japanese soldiers rushed over like crazy carrying rifles and light machine guns.
Zhong Yusheng led the guard battalion and rushed towards the airport gate with all his strength. Whoever takes the airport gate that has been blown into ruins first will be able to take the initiative on the battlefield in the subsequent battle.
Finally, the two armies met in the ruins.
The enemy was extremely jealous when they met. The squadron leader led by the Japanese took out his command knife and shouted: "Shoot, fight with the enemy's bayonets, and drive the enemy out!"
The Japanese picked up their rifles, held the light machine guns and wanted to shoot.
Soon enough, Zhong Yusheng, who was holding a machine gun in his hand, did not give orders and started to get angry when he saw the Japanese.
The machine gunners next to him also fired, with more than thirty light machine guns firing together. The whizzing bullets immediately formed an airtight net of bullets in front of the Japanese.
Many Japanese soldiers just raised their rifles, and before the bolts were pulled, the incoming bullets turned them into a hornet's nest!
"Baga, the offensive firepower of Tubal Road is too fierce. Get down and shoot to stop them!" The Japanese squadron leader who lost nearly half of his troops in the first battle and suffered a big loss immediately realized that fighting head-on was not an option, so he changed it to
Defense.
However, Zhong Yusheng's reaction speed was faster.
"Grenade cover, keep charging forward!" Zhong Yusheng ordered while holding the fire.
"The machine gunner in front died, and the ones behind him took over. The machine gun fire couldn't stop. We fought all the way into the airport. Comrades, keep charging with me!"
"Boom, boom, boom..." As soon as the command was uttered, an explosion sounded among the devils.
The contact distance between the two sides was too close, and the high-explosive grenade easily hit the enemy and exploded.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the Japanese were struggling and screaming in the explosion, Zhong Yusheng immediately rushed forward.
"Come in! Brigadier, the guard battalion has entered several battles!" A guard next to Cheng Xiao shouted excitedly.
"Send a signal to Camp Commander Zhong, and the guard battalions will disperse and attack, and kill as many Japanese as possible!" A flash of excitement quickly flashed across Cheng Xiao's face, and then he quickly regained his composure and continued to give orders with a serious face.
"Order the artillery to follow, shoot at close range, and provide artillery support to the guard battalion!"
"The cavalry company also goes in! Airport artillery shells are most suitable for cavalry mobile charges. Tell Mayonghe to fight this battle well. When we go back, the cavalry company will expand the cavalry battalion, and he will be the battalion commander!"
In the airport tower, the captain of the garrison rushed in disheveled, looking down from a high position, and at a glance he could see the airport rushing in and out, like a guard camp in an uninhabited land.
"Bageya Road, why is the enemy's offensive firepower so fierce! Why are they equipped with so many light machine guns!"
"The second squadron goes up and blocks the Eighth Route Army on the right side of the runway for a few rounds! The third squadron blocks the ones on the left, and the fourth squadron defends for a few rounds!"
The captain of the garrison's order finally stopped several chaos, and the speed of the guard battalion's assault also slowed down due to the powerful Japanese counterattack.
But at this moment, the thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded behind the guard camp.
"It's the cavalry, comrades, the cavalry company is here to reinforce us!" Zhong Yusheng reacted immediately, and the frown he had just frowned suddenly relaxed.
"Fire all the machine guns, attract all the Japanese firepower, and cover the cavalry company's assault!"
The Japanese squadron leader opposite turned pale in a flash. On the solid runway, it was very difficult to even dig a hole, not to mention building a position.
Now more than a hundred subordinates are lying on the ground fighting. Once the cavalry charges over, the subordinates without position cover in front of the cavalry will only have the fate of being massacred.
Unwilling to fail, the squadron leader shouted with the last glimmer of hope: "Shoot, everyone, shoot, stop the Eighth Route Army cavalry, otherwise we will all die!"
However, under the frenzied fire of ten machine guns from the guard battalion, the six machine guns they were equipped with were already tightly suppressed, and they were unable to fire with all their strength.
Although the sporadic bullets fired by the riflemen caused some casualties to the cavalry, the main force of the cavalry company was still there, like an unstoppable torrent of steel, charging towards them with sabers raised and roaring.
