    On the evening of May 10th, as soon as the sun set, tens of thousands of national troops in Tianbaozhai divided into two groups and marched towards southern Shanxi!

    In fact, before the main force moved, Zhang Shaolin's independent brigade had arrived in Changzhi in advance. All members of the brigade were wearing casual clothes, and their weapons and equipment were mainly light weapons. Their mission was to capture Changzhi.

    Therefore, the only ones operating on the night of the 10th were Zhang Tengjiao's 177th Division and Xie Baojun's 194th Division. According to Li Guoyao's order, all the soldiers under Zhang Tengjiao were dressed as the Eighth Route Army. Except for weapons and equipment, it was impossible to see that this unit had anything to do with the national army.

    Xie Baojun¡¯s 194th Division wore normal uniforms of the National Army, but did not bear the banner of the Ninth Army. Li Guoyao did not want to be recognized by the little devils.

    Li Guoyao himself accompanied Zhang Tengjiao's actions, sitting in the center and taking charge of the overall situation!

    When the large forces began to move south, the independent brigade on the outskirts of Changzhi had completed its penetration into nearby counties, but did not immediately enter the battle.

    The reason is that the other two armies are still on their way south and are not expected to arrive at the battlefield until at least the night of the 11th.

    Although the siege battle cannot be fought, the battle to destroy the Japanese airport can begin!

    Regarding the situation at Changzhi Airport, Zhang Shaolin¡¯s command found out some time ago!

    The airport is located near Wangcun, fifteen kilometers north of Changzhi City. This is one of the most important airports for the Japanese army in central and southern Shanxi. Fighters taking off from here are constantly bombing and reconnaissance in Shandong, Shanxi, Henan and Hebei.  battlefield.

    After careful investigation, Zhang Shaolin and others learned that there were more than 100 aircraft deployed at the airport at most, and more than 1,000 Japanese aviation troops and ground staff were stationed in the airport. This was a comprehensive airport integrating combat, training, and repair.  .

    In addition, through peripheral observation, the Independent Brigade also discovered that the entire airport was very heavily guarded, with bunkers, bunkers, shelters, and barbed wire surrounding it.

    After the Japanese army launched the "Battle of the Central Plains", the tasks of Changzhi Airport also became onerous. A large number of combat aircraft transferred from here to join the battle. At the same time, a large number of transport aircraft transported important materials to Changzhi via roads and  The railway transports supplies to Jincheng.

    Therefore, Li Guoyao instructed Zhang Shaolin's troops that before seizing Yuncheng, it was best to destroy the airport first.

    For this reason, Zhang Shaolin assigned this combat mission to the regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness.

    The first regiment was formed by the former bandits of Erlong Mountain. After more than ten months of training, this unit has been transformed. After many changes of equipment, its combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.

    In the recent battle against Handan and other places, the regiment made many meritorious deeds and was praised many times by Li Guoyao.

    A few days ago, the troops received an order from the brigade headquarters, telling them that the first battle was to capture Wangcun Airport.

    After receiving the order, the regiment leader Zhou Qiang, who was born in the special forces, led his troops to the vicinity of Wangcun. They secretly arrived at the Japanese airport several times for reconnaissance. At the same time, they also conducted many tactical deductions and formulated a combat plan.

    Zhou Qiang is a very unique person. He was born in the regular army of the national army and received formal military education, but he likes special operations.

    After being selected into the special operations team, he has been following Zhang Shaolin. Later, after the establishment of the Dongshan detachment, he was appointed as the captain. Not long ago, when the independent brigade was established, he became the commander of the first regiment.

    After investigation, Zhou Qiang found that although there were a lot of Japs at Wangcun Airport, most of the troops were second-line defense forces. Apart from the pilots and ground crews, there were only five to six hundred soldiers actually responsible for defending the airport, not even one.  None of the team arrived.

    In addition, this airport seems to be heavily guarded, but in fact the soldiers and officers are not very good at it. They have no sense of crisis at all. They are typically tight on the outside and loose on the inside.

    Even during the past few days of observing the movements of the little Japanese at the airport, they could often see the garrison at the airport going to nearby villages to conduct raids.

    The raids were fake, but the extortion of nearby Chinese people was real. They even discovered that these Japanese soldiers sometimes went out late at night for the purpose of going to nearby Chinese villages to grab some grain and livestock, and occasionally some women.

    ¡°Obviously, the little devils at the airport are not having an easy time, at least they don¡¯t have enough supplies.

    Soon, a complete combat plan was formed in Zhou Qiang¡¯s mind!

    On the afternoon of May 11, the four main battalions of the First Regiment were divided into four groups and stationed in Xiaoxinzhuang, Guoyuan Village, Guozhuang, and Liujia Village near Wangcun Airport.

    According to the inference of Zhou Qiang and others, the little devil will be killed today and tomorrowIt took two days to get out of the airport to collect supplies, mainly meat.

    In the past two days, they have robbed six villages to the east and south of the airport. If nothing else happens, their target for this operation should be several villages to the west and north.

    But since he didn¡¯t know which village the Japs were targeting, Zhou Qiang simply deployed troops in each village.

    Anyway, through their observations over the past few days, they found that most of the kidnappers at the airport used squadrons as their basic combat units when raiding, and occasionally they would attack in the form of squads.

    Each battalion of a regiment has at least 500 men, which is equivalent to three times the strength of a Japanese infantry squadron. If caught off guard, it can completely eat up the troops swept by the Japanese army in a short period of time.

    As long as these little devils who go out to raid are killed, they can disguise themselves as these little devils and carry out armed infiltration into the airport.

    By then, as long as the airport gate is deceived, the main force of the group will be able to surge forward and directly control the entire airport.

    To the joy of Zhou Qiang and others, less than two hours after they stationed in these villages, the team monitoring the Japanese troops at the airport sent back news that the Japs were out at the airport.

    This time the Japanese army sent out a squadron of troops and two cars to accompany the army. The target was Guozhuang, northwest of the airport.

    After receiving the order, Zhou Qiang immediately ordered Guozhuang's troops to prepare for battle and wait for the little Japs to come.

    The airport is not far from Guozhuang, but not close either, at least about ten kilometers.

    When the Japanese army arrived at Guozhuang, it was already past four in the afternoon!

    After arriving at the outskirts of Guozhuang, the little devil apparently peeped quietly outside the village and found figures walking around in the yards of many houses in the village, and animals were tied at the door of the cowshed and horse pen.

    The little devil was overjoyed. Immediately under the command of the squadron leader, he rushed up in a swarm and quickly surrounded Guozhuang.

    However, just when the little devil was about to rush into the village to rob him, suddenly rapid gunshots were heard from inside.

    In an instant, a large number of armed troops in civilian clothes rushed out of Zhuangzi. Not only were the opponents numerous in number, but their weapons, equipment, and combat qualities were astonishing.

    Caught off guard, half the squadron of soldiers who rushed into Zhuangzi were quickly wiped out, and then the opponent counterattacked outside Zhuangzi.

    Since the little devils only had one squadron of troops, and they were scattered all over Zhuangzi, their troops were extremely dispersed. Therefore, in less than half an hour, the Japanese infantry squadron was completely wiped out. No one was spared, and no one slipped through the net!

    After wiping out the Japs squadron, Xu Dafei, commander of the third battalion, ordered his men to clean the battlefield. At the same time, he also mobilized more than 140 capable troops, asked them to put on the Japs' military uniforms, and bought several big fat pigs and pigs from the common people.  Dozens of chickens and ducks loaded the trophies into the car and rushed towards the airport.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
