Liu Hong touched his gray hair, and then took a deep breath to calm down his excitement as much as possible.
At this time, he was standing next to the port window of the transport plane. Looking down from here, he could only see the endless night.
They took advantage of the darkness to airborne, so that they could conceal their whereabouts to the greatest extent.
But there is a problem with doing this. That is, the darkness will make it difficult for their troops to communicate. Although every airborne unit is equipped with radios and walkie-talkies, as well as very detailed military maps. But in the dark night, their rendezvous will inevitably encounter certain difficulties.
And if the airborne troops cannot be brought together, then they will be scattered troops and unable to exert their combat effectiveness.
"Master, in five minutes we will reach the target airspace." His chief of staff came over and said.
Liu Hong nodded. Unlike other army commanders, he would follow his soldiers to parachute to the battlefield behind enemy lines and fight the Japanese army to the bitter end.
"Order the soldiers to prepare for airborne landing!!!"
Liu Hong shouted and put the umbrella bag on his back.
¡°Open the hatch!!!¡±
With a loud shout, the rear hatch of the transport plane slowly opened. Nearly a hundred soldiers inside the aircraft cabin came to the rear door of the transport aircraft.
In front of them was the sky that was retreating rapidly. The wind roared past, tearing at their eardrums.
"Brothers, this is the first battle of our airborne division. We must make a name for ourselves! Do you hear me?!" Liu Hong turned around and looked at the soldiers behind him and shouted loudly.
"yes!!"
The soldiers shouted in unison.
After Liu Hong finished speaking, he turned around and jumped down first. Seeing that the master's seat was the first to jump down, the other soldiers were also inspired, lined up to the rear hatch, and began to jump down.
Parachutes bloom in the sky one by one, like white flowers.
Other transport planes also began to drop airborne troops one after another into the night-shrouded land below.
With the strength of a division, they need to release several batches of troops through transport aircraft before they can completely release them. The first batch of launches actually only had the strength of one integrated regiment.
At this time, Nomura Nobunaga, the commander of the Japanese ninth brigade in Xinxiang, was awakened from his sleep by his subordinates.
He yawned and walked to the headquarters. Several telegrams were placed in front of Kitano Nobunaga.
"What's going on?" Kitano Nobunaga asked, looking at the stack of telegrams.
The staff officer next to him said: "Several of our positions in the front said that they heard the sound of aircraft engines. Not only here, but even in the Anyang and Jiaozuo areas, the sounds of aircraft engines were also heard."
"Is it our army's fighter plane?" Kitano Nobunaga asked.
"It's impossible. We have already sent telegrams to several nearby military airports. They said there will be no flight missions tonight. It is very likely that they are enemy fighters or bombers." The staff officer said.
Kitano Nobunaga nodded, and then said: "Immediately report this information to General Okamura Neiji. The enemy may want to air attack some of our military targets. They have very powerful air power. This was the case in Lingtai Town before. It has been confirmed.¡±
"Yes!!" said the staff officer.
Kitano Nobunaga looked at the map solemnly. They were not equipped with radar, and even the radar at this time was still a rarity. Even the truly practical radar was only invented by the British a few years ago.
The Japanese army did not have radar, so they could only detect aircraft with the naked eye or by listening to the roar of aircraft engines.
They waited in the headquarters for a full hour.
But they did not wait for the news that any strongholds were attacked by air raids. Instead, they waited for the news that the forward positions were attacked by enemy troops.
At this time, in the southwest of Jiaozuo, the 1st Armored Division had launched an attack on the Japanese outer positions.
The Japanese army stationed an integrated regiment here, with a strength of more than 3,000 people. Even if it is attacked, it can still sustain until the reinforcements from Anyang and Xingtai arrive.
"But what they didn't expect was that the First Armored Division's offensive was so fast and terrifying.
Almost at the beginning of the battle, the 1st Armored Division, with its advanced tanks and armorThe car defeated the Japanese army very easily.
Those Japanese troops did not have low combat effectiveness or lacked the will to resist. But when they woke up from their sleep, the tanks of the First Armored Division had already arrived in front of their position.
By the time they entered the fortifications, the gun barrels of the tanks were already touching their noses. These Japanese troops did not even have any chance to fight back before they were overwhelmed by the torrent of steel.
The soldiers of the cavalry division followed the armored vehicles and tanks. After the steel behemoths broke into the Japanese positions and camps, they broke in decisively and slaughtered the Japanese infantry who had lost their position protection.
This way of fighting is extremely efficient in killing Japanese troops. Often in less than an hour, they were able to annihilate a squadron of Japanese troops.
As for the puppet troops, they are even worse than the Japanese army.
¡°After all, those Japanese troops were so stupid that they would still resist, but those puppet troops didn¡¯t even have the intention to resist. When they saw tanks and armored vehicles approaching, they wisely chose to surrender.
The Japanese army¡¯s more than ten strongholds and positions outside Jiaozuo and Anyang were all eliminated before they could hold on until dawn.
It was not just the outer positions in Jiaozuo and Anyang that were attacked. At this time, the Japanese defensive positions west of Xinxiang were also attacked by the third division and the cavalry division.
In just a few hours in the second half of the night, the leading troops of the Third Division and the Cavalry Division had already advanced fifty or sixty kilometers. It's very close to Xinxiang.
