    February 11, 1939, outside Xuzhou City

    The heavy snow has stopped. Li Yunlong stood outside the trench wearing a yellow woolen cloak. He squinted and looked into the distance as he watched the soldiers clearing the snow in the trench.

    "Master! The order from the front commander has come down, let's get ready! The air force will bomb the enemy's positions later. If the enemy's losses are heavy, we will take the opportunity to launch an attack and capture the enemy's positions!"

    A staff officer ran to Li Yunlong and said loudly.

    "Take the opportunity to launch an attack?"

    Li Yunlong frowned, he was not satisfied with this order.

    ?Or maybe you have some doubts about the attitude above.

    "Call the front finger and ask how far we are going to attack. Should we attack in or continue to feign attack from outside?"

    Li Yunlong frowned and thought for a few minutes before asking the staff officer to send a message to inquire.

    After a while the staff officer came back.

    "Master! It was previously stated that if we can seize the opportunity to invade Xuzhou City with little troop losses, it would be best to capture Xuzhou City. If the losses are too great, give up the all-out attack!"

    "Loss? What exactly is the front finger going to do?"

    Li Yunlong¡¯s brows knitted together tightly.

    "Brother Yunlong!"

    At this moment, a shout came from behind. Without looking back, just by hearing this voice, Li Yunlong knew it was from Chu Yunfei.

    "Brother Yunfei, have you received the attack command from the front finger?"

    Li Yunlong turned to look at Chu Yunfei who quickly walked to his side and asked.

    "Brother Yunlong, did you give the order to take advantage of the opportunity to attack?"

    "good!"

    Chu Yunfei nodded and said: "I also received it! Now the command of the front finger has become a bit erratic, as if he is hesitating for something!"

    "There must have been something unexpected. Otherwise, I wouldn't have issued such a vague order!"

    Chu Yunfei turned his head and glanced at Li Yunlong before continuing: "I don't want to lose too many troops right now. It is estimated that we will have a big operation after the beginning of spring. Once we lose too many troops at this time, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to the future.  The battle has an impact!¡±

    "Forget it! What the hell! I will act accordingly when the time comes! If the Japs' city gate is blown open and they don't resist fiercely, then we will rush in! Drive the Japs out of Xuzhou! No matter what happens, we will do it  Bite off a piece of his fat meat!"

    Li Yunlong thought for a while and said directly.

    "Haha! That's the truth!"

    ¡°Buzz~buzz~buzz~buzz~¡±

    Suddenly, there was a buzzing roar of engines above Li Yunlong and the others.

    Then, in the eyes of Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei, heavy bombers, dive bombers and Zero fighters appeared one after another.

    "They started bombing!"

    Looking at these planes, Li Yunlong couldn't help but murmur to himself.

    ¡°Woo~wu~wu~wu~¡±

    ¡°Woo~wu~wu~wu~¡±

    Amidst the sharp screams, bombs fell on the little devil's position one after another.

    The white snow began to fly all over the sky, and at the same time, the soil was churned up by the explosion. The entire little devil's position was like boiling water.

    "Brother Yunfei, the Air Force has started bombing, and I guess the heavy artillery division will start bombarding soon! Our troops will also be ready to move!"

    After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he went to give orders to the troops, and so did Chu Yunfei.

    As the Air Force began bombing, the heavy artillery division also began to roar.

    "Damn! Qianzhi's intention this time is a bit vague! He actually used heavy artillery to bombard the city. Are they not afraid of too many civilian casualties?"

    Li Yunlong put down the telescope and frowned.

    "No! They only bombarded the city wall and its surroundings. Now that the war has been going on for so long, the civilians around the city wall must have been driven away by the Japs. Bombing the city wall now will not cause civilian casualties!

    Brother Yunlong, look at the extent of the artillery shelling, the heavy artillery division is shelling fiercely!  Our chance has come!

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There are only two more divisions in the city, and there are less than three Japanese divisions in the city. What do you think? Are you interested in getting in and knocking Xuzhou down?  "

    After watching it for a while, Chu Yunfei suddenly put down the telescope, looked at Li Yunlong and said.

    "Why are you not interested! Brother Yunfei invites you like thisInvite me, as a big man, how can you be pretentious?  "

    "Okay! Then we are ready to attack!"

    When Nanjing¡¯s bombers began to bomb the position, the Japs immediately dispatched the Army Aviation Corps, which they had just received some reinforcements.

    During this period, due to the heavy losses of the Japs, the four pilot regiments lost less than 500 fighter planes.

    And there are three key directions, which also results in their air force in the Xuzhou direction having only more than a hundred fighters.

    On the other hand, looking at the air force under Nanjing, Zhou Weiguo has been replenishing it to ensure that the air force is at full strength.

    Therefore, Nanjing¡¯s air force has always been at its peak. The little devil¡¯s more than one hundred fighter planes simply did not dare to confront Nanjing¡¯s army head-on, and could only contain it from the side.

    But the result is that they only have a certain effect on blocking bombers and cannot really affect these bombers.

    This also resulted in bombers still bombarding the Japs¡¯ positions unscrupulously.

    The troops of Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei began to approach the Jaap position.

    The distance between the positions of both sides is only about 400 meters.

    Li Yunlong and the others overcame a distance of more than two hundred meters, which was already the limit.

    There are heavy bombers. If they get closer and something goes wrong, they will have to pay with their lives.

    Half an hour later, at 9:30 in the morning, the shelling stopped.

    But the troops of Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei took advantage of the situation to launch an attack on the Jaap's position.

    At this time, the little Japanese had just suffered bombing and artillery shelling, and it was a time when morale and soldiers were in urgent need.

    So when Li Yunlong and the others launched the attack, only sporadic gunshots rang out from the Jaap position.

    Li Yunlong knew that the Japs must have been deceived by them. They never imagined that he and others would suddenly launch an attack today.

    This made him feel that this was a good opportunity.

    Obviously, Chu Yunfei also discovered this situation and believed that now was the weakest time on the Japs' position. As long as they broke into Xuzhou City at this time, they could suppress the Japs as much as possible before the Japs could react.  The living space of devils!

    Rush forward!

    Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei¡¯s troops rushed forward without any suspense!

    But then, they encountered the little devil¡¯s reinforcements on the battlefield!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
