The accidental death of Liu Jinhu, the deputy commander of the second battalion, made the mood of everyone who had just captured Baoying extremely heavy.

The people who talked and laughed together the day before and drank together after winning the battle have now become cold corpses separated by yin and yang, and they can no longer drink together and fight side by side, and the brothers who know each other are full of tears.

Liu Jinhu is also a fierce general of the Northern Jiangsu Army, and he must be the first in every battle, and this time he attacked Baoying and he took the lead in attacking the devil's headquarters.

But everyone also knows that even a veteran of a hundred battles who has gone through the Ghost Gate Pass a few times can die in the next very inconspicuous battle, and then disappear forever.

But everyone also understands that this is war, whether you are an officer or a soldier, as long as you put on a military uniform and go to the battlefield, then any fragment of an explosion, a stray bullet may kill you.

Even so, in the face of the broken mountains and rivers, they knew that they would die, but they still put on their military uniforms without hesitation, picked up their guns and joined the rolling torrent of succession, this is the Chinese soldiers.

"Brother Liu and the brothers who died in battle died well, and they did not disgrace our Northern Jiangsu Corps, and our living brothers will continue to fight to complete the important task of recovering the rivers and mountains!"

Yang Ling ordered the deputy battalion commander Liu Jinhu and the brothers who died in the battle to be buried in the ground.

"I'd rather die in battle than be a slave to the country!"

"If the country survives, I will die!"

Both officers and ordinary brethren clenched their fists, ready to shed their last drop of blood to defend the dignity of the nation, just like countless brothers who have fought to the death.

"Report, Gaoyou urgent telegram, devils are heavily attacked!"

Before the funeral ceremony was over, the communications staff officer hurriedly walked up to Yang Ling with a telegram.

"The devil really can't help it."

Yang Ling had long expected the devil's northward advance, after all, now that their main force was in Baoying, there was no reason for the devil not to attack when the realm head was empty.

"The devil actually sent four infantry brigades and an artillery brigade this time, it seems that the little devil is not good." The telegram was passed in the hands of the commander-in-chief's officers, and everyone's faces became solemn.

Now there are only five combat battalions in the Northern Jiangsu Corps, and there is no chance of winning if they have to fight hard against the five devils.

"Don't worry, we are a guerrilla corps, as long as we drag the devils in the water network area for a week, and then send infiltration troops to cut off the supply lines of the devils, the devils will naturally retreat." Yang Ling didn't have much to worry about the devil's heavy troops in the north.

They are now very proficient in using guerrilla tactics, the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy retreats and we pursue, and the enemy is tired and we fight, so many of their troops are scattered to fight guerrilla warfare with the devils, and no matter how strong the devils are, they have to be blinded.

As long as they carry out the attrition tactics of guerrilla warfare, constantly attack and harass the devils, delay the devils, and shoot cold guns and cannons, the devils will eventually be unable to bear the losses and retreat.

"Telegraph Shen Biao, according to the original plan, the speed of the devil's northward advance will be delayed, and the main force of our Northern Jiangsu Corps can go south to meet the battle." Yang Ling instructed the communications staff officer.

"Yes!" The communications staff officer hurried away.

Yang Ling estimated that the time to capture Baoying would be two days, but now that it was only one day, then they had enough time to go south to help.

"The fifth battalion left two companies in Baoying to wait for Huaiyin to send people to take over, and the rest of the troops quickly assembled and headed south."

Less than five hours after the Northern Soviet Corps had rested for less than five hours after the capture of the lower boundary, the troops were once again assembled in formation under the shouts of the officers, preparing to move south to meet the battle.

"Everyone is only allowed to take ten rounds of ammunition and two grenades!"

At the south gate of Baoying, the officers of the quartermaster department had already led people to move Baoying's devil munitions to the city gate, and the quartermaster Sun Zhong stood on the ammunition box and shouted loudly with an iron horn.

"Go over there and line up for the bread, and get an extra can for each class!"

Groups of officers and soldiers marching south lined up at the city gate to receive ammunition and food, and then they were about to head south to a new battlefield.

"Woo-"

When the brothers were gathering ammunition in Baoying to prepare for the battle south, suddenly the sound of a roaring motor was heard in the sky.

"The devil plane is coming! The devil plane is coming! ”

The air raid post gave a grim warning, and at the same time sounded the air raid siren that had been captured from the devils.

The terrible sound of the alarm suddenly resounded in Baoying City, and the brothers who were assembling were also stunned, and looked at the sky one after another, and in the southwest sky, more than a dozen small black dots were rapidly approaching.

"Hidden! Spread out and hide! ”

Seeing that the devil's plane was coming at this time, the officers who had not seen the devil's plane for a long time also reacted and shouted loudly.

Fortunately, the troops also went through air defense drills in peacetime, and the assembled troops dispersed in an uproar, and they took refuge in ditches and barren grass one after another.

"Dadada......."

Soon, more than a dozen devil planes flew over at a low altitude, and the airborne machine guns in the distance opened fire on the brothers who were fleeing in a panic.

The scorching bullets plowed the ground into two ballistic paths, sending smoke and dust into a cloud of dust, and the empty ammunition boxes suddenly flew with sawdust and turned into transparent holes.

The devil's plane was so arrogant that they almost flew over the top of the brothers' heads, and the strong waves of the plane's wings knocked many brothers to the ground.

"Dog's day little devil!"

The two quadruple anti-aircraft machine guns that the Northern Soviet Corps got from the theater headquarters had long been guarding against the devil's plane, but at this moment, they all lifted the tarpaulin one after another and opened fire on the devil.

"Teng Teng Teng—"

Two quadruple anti-aircraft machine guns spat out tongues of fire, and a string of bullets flew towards the devil's plane.

"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! ”

Many of the machine gunners also quickly set up their machine guns and joined the fire attack on the devil plane.

The devil's plane swooped over with great momentum, and it was frightening to think that a guerrilla force like the Northern Jiangsu Corps would also have anti-aircraft machine guns.

"Poof!"

A devil plane faced the oncoming anti-aircraft machine gun bullets, and the devil pilot wanted to pull up, but he didn't have any time at all.

I watched as the protective shield of the cabin was shattered, and then the bullets splattered their own blood.

The uncontrollable devil plane grazed the edge of the city wall, knocking a large area of masonry into the air, and then crashed straight into a farmland.

"Boom!"

The devil's plane slammed into the farmland, and then in the deafening roar, the fuel tank of the entire devil's plane exploded, and the fireball swallowed the devil's plane.

"Eight Ga Ya Road!"

Seeing that one of the planes in the formation was shot down just after it came, the rest of the devil planes hurriedly pulled up while scolding, worried about repeating the mistakes of the past.

The devil's plane did not dare to strafe at a low altitude, so it had to be pulled up to a high altitude and bombed one after another to the ground.

"Boom! Bang! ”

One after another, heavy bombs fell into the city, and in the dull roar, one after another mushroom clouds rose up, and the earth shook violently.

"Little devil, I'll grass your grandma, I have the ability to come down!"

Looking at the devil's plane that only dared to drop bombs, the brothers were so angry that they were smoking, but they had nothing to do with the devil's plane.

The devil's plane bombed Baoying indiscriminately, and soon Baoying fell into a sea of gunsmoke and fire, a large number of buildings collapsed in the explosion, and the entire Baoying was filled with gunsmoke.
