"As long as I am given enough anti-aircraft artillery, I can block the attack of the Japanese army." Huang Zhenqiu said confidently. At this time, he proposed the method of partitioning, dividing and encircling the air on the southern front, and fighting more locally than others.

Huang Zhenqiu's name is quite special, coupled with a comparison of the specific situation, so Meng Xiang still has some impressions. Although he didn't know very well that Huang Zhenqiu still held the title of the founder of the modern logistics system of the Central Army, he knew that he was the air defense master of the Central Army during the Anti-Japanese War, and created the passive air defense and active air defense system in China. In the air defense school he started 33 years ago, he trained a large number of air defense talents.

Meng Xiang is naturally also enthusiastic about those talents, and he is even more tempted by the banner of Huang Zhenqiu.

Before, Kong Ci appreciated too quickly, and there were too many people in charge, which caused people to criticize, so the air defense unit was read out of the artillery and included in the Second Artillery Corps. But this adjustment, because Hu Yi also has a specific task, handed over to Hu Jiu to take care of. However, whether it is Tiger One or Tiger Nine, the arrangement of anti-aircraft artillery is a little rigid. It's one thing to know a textbook approach, but it's another thing to be flexible.

So Meng Xiang has always wanted to place a person like Kong Ci from ordinary people. However, there are not many talents who understand professional air defense in China, and the level of many people is too low, so Meng Xiang simply aimed at Huang Zhenqiu.

Because the attention of the Yue army was focused on the vanguard army, and the interception of the vanguard fighters in Wuhan and other places in the future, the famous bombing of Yucheng in later generations has been temporarily eliminated. Huang Zhenqiu's role has been diluted a lot. As soon as Meng enjoyed the tried and tested method of exchanging weapons for talents, a hundred 20 and 40 mm anti-aircraft guns, plus a little discord under the accounts of other bigwigs, pulled Huang Zhenqiu under his command.

Huang Zhenqiu didn't have much complaints about the times. Now a lot of people are talking about a better future in the vanguard. But Lao Jiang's kindness to him still made Huang Zhenqiu face the vanguard army repeatedly before he did not leave the Central Army. But at this time, since it was an official transfer, Huang Zhenqiu didn't mind going to the opportunity to develop more vanguard troops, where there were all kinds of anti-aircraft artillery, just so that he could show what he had learned when he had just entered the year of not being confused. In addition, the Civic Party, which formed the vanguard army, has always advocated against civil war, which also reassures him a lot.

Meng Xiang also divided the air defense unit into two, leaving the missile air defense and self-propelled air defense artillery in the Second Artillery Corps and still under the management of Hu Jiu, while the towed air defense artillery and other new air defense units with reading power were established.

At this time, there were only a few dozen vehicles in the vanguard army, and Meng Xiang used them for experiments. He has always wanted to build a multifunctional air defense vehicle in the Red Alert, but he couldn't try more than a dozen air defense vehicles, so he accumulated a bunch of them. But considering the secrecy of the multifunctional anti-aircraft vehicle after it came out later, he left the automatic anti-aircraft vehicle in the Second Artillery Corps.

Huang Zhenqiu didn't care much about the times. He used to be in charge of only 100 anti-aircraft guns, but at this time it has multiplied dozens of times. With the addition of a new weapon of radar, he has long been happy in his heart, where to care about those self-propelled anti-aircraft guns with a very small number.

Meng Xiang is also unsuspicious of employing people and letting him play. There is no doubt that the placement of those clones in the air defense forces is the best precaution.

At this time, considering that there are follow-up plans, there are still less than 100 aircraft in the Zhengzhou area, and they can only passively defend the ground forces passively, so the air defense pressure is very heavy, and this has become the focus of Huang Zhenqiu's arrangement.

Anti-aircraft artillery Meng enjoys a lot. Since he had already decided on the caliber of anti-aircraft weapons, he raised production and rushed to produce a large batch as a stockpile. But gunners are still scarce, and ordinary artillery and anti-aircraft guns play a little differently, and it will take a while to adjust and adapt. And a large number of artillery units are also tightly staffed.

Huang Zhenqiu didn't care about it, and beckoned, and some of his disciples and students ran from the Central Army to hundreds of people. As long as there are anti-aircraft artillery professionals in command, those simple operations are not too difficult, and some ordinary soldiers can also be trained to do them.

Meng Xiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and the role of the banner was reflected.

At this time, the biggest banner he erected was Jiang Baili, and he brought in a lot of excellent middle and upper-level army officers. There are also Shen Honglie and Chen Ce, and there are also a lot of naval talents.

The friendship between teachers and students in China is still very exquisite. This is also an aspect of the tried-and-true tree banner. This is also one reason why Huang Zhenqiu dared to say that.

Meng Xiang also delegated power to it and let it be arranged.

At this time, there were not enough pilots, so they could only use anti-aircraft artillery to consume enemy aircraft and attract devils over.

He also observed that the planes of the vanguard army were still flying from the Zhengzhou area to Huaibei. According to their estimates, there are not many planes left in the Zhengzhou area. For their temptation, the vanguard army also met them with anti-aircraft artillery.

So when reinforcements from the Xuchang area arrived one after another, they were ready to launch a larger-scale offensive.

On 18 June, the 13th and 16th Divisions, the 9th and 5th Divisions, and the reorganized 106th Division appeared on a front of more than 200 kilometers and were preparing to launch a general attack.

At this time, only about 300 fighters of the Japanese army were engaged in the battle, and although only half of them were Zero, the momentum was huge. The planes of the vanguard had retreated to the rear, and only the constant roar of anti-aircraft artillery was there.

Behind the position of the army, nearly 100 bombers are preparing, intending to start bombing the artillery positions and giant artillery positions of the vanguard army today, as well as the blizzard rocket artillery positions that make the devils' hearts tremble.

They were not in a hurry to attack together, and their whereabouts were revealed at this time, which was a conspiracy and a collision of strength.

If the planes of the Pioneer Army rushed to support, the air supremacy in Xuzhou and Huaibei and other areas would be in the hands of Yu himself, and through the aerial bombardment of nearly 100 fighters there and the suppression of heavy artillery bombardment, the three newly arrived divisions of the 32nd, 35th, and 36th Divisions there, plus the 1st and 3rd Divisions and three mixed brigades of Reading Force, would be enough to break through the defense line of the Vanguard Army.

At this time, there were also 200 planes in the Tohoku and Kanto regions, and if the planes there were withdrawn, the bomber groups of the Kwantung Army would also destroy the huge artillery there, and the army would break through from there.

On the other hand, the aircraft carrier of the Flying Dragon also came.

It was supposed to be completed in July, and it was completed more than a month ahead of schedule and began its first sortie under the acceleration of himself. Although the Kaga aircraft carrier was still being refitted, the Flying Dragon was accompanied by a Nagato-class battleship and escorted some troop transports to Shanghai. After they escorted the troop carrier, they sailed together to the open sea of Lianyun Port. The upper can threaten Jiaodong and other places, and the lower can threaten the Lianyungang area. It may even land in Lianyungang and cut off the rear route of the vanguard army.

This time, he really dispatched more than 1,000 planes. It is necessary to take advantage of the lack of planes and pilots in the vanguard army to regain air supremacy.

Either way, they could break through and become a threat.

"The vanguard army can have more than 500 fighters, which is not bad! Hahaha! Tada Jun smiled. Not counting other aircraft, only counting fighters, at this time there were about 200 planes in Huaibei, more than 100 planes in the Beijing-Tianjin area, about 40 or 50 planes in the Suiyuan area, and they were also entangled in more than 70 planes in Shanxi. At this time, there were less than 100 planes in the Zhengzhou area, or even less.

"Other factors also need to be taken into account, the Vanguard Army estimates six hundred fighters. A part was lost some time ago, and there was no noticeable replenishment. Seishiro Itagaki said in a deep voice.

As for the secret passage of the vanguard army, he has been searching. These days, people everywhere are watching the sky, and even at sea, there are fishing boats watching the sky. I searched for more and more night after night, but I didn't feel any trace of the plane passing by. This stupid method can at least be estimated that the vanguard army has not received external support recently, and has not been re-imported.

"After all, the strength of the people of China is limited, how can they compare with the savings of the empire for decades?" Tada Jun laughed heartily, and finally breathed a sigh of relief from being pressed by the vanguard army, "It's a pity that the people of the empire didn't show such courage to kill them with a thousand planes?" ”

"The Vanguard has only been on the rise for less than two years, and at that time, no one expected them to grow so quickly. Two years, just two years! Don't be underestimated! Seishiro Itagaki said. He said that he attaches great importance to strong opponents.

"Don't worry, I won't underestimate them." Tada Jun also put away his smile and said in a deep voice, "The pre-war meeting is about to be held, and all the operational arrangements will be carefully arranged in place." But we will not despise the vanguard. ”

Not long after, the division commanders and chiefs of staff of the divisions and regiments rushed to the headquarters set up in Luohe with their subordinates. Xuchang was too close to the front line, and the planes of the Vanguard Army were a threat there, and there was only a temporary headquarters there.

Once everyone was seated, the Chief of Staff, Major General Yukio Kasawara, began to deploy against the large operational map hanging on the wall.

At this time, more than a thousand meters away from the headquarters, Tanya and 143 were leading an elite team to pay attention to this side.

"Several of the big officials of the little devil have gone in, but they are heavily guarded, and there is no way to sneak in." Ma Feiyan said with some regret, even if she is dexterous, it is difficult to avoid the sight of many soldiers.

"It doesn't matter, we don't need to go in!" Tanya smiled at the corners of her mouth. Her hair was black by this time, not too harsh.

"Not going in?" Ma Feiyan looked at the gate of the headquarters where the patrol team kept passing in the distance, and then looked at the room 123 not far away with headphones still listening with his eyes closed, and couldn't help but be a little anxious.

"They're all in the room! The meeting began. Room 143 continued to report. The distant eavesdropping device continued to send out signals, which were amplified at the far end and reached his ears.

Ma Feiyan glanced at him a few more times, and she always had some distrust in her heart for this guy who looked very much like herself. But the superiors sent to lead the way for this three-person team, and the order demanded absolute obedience to them.

"That's it! You can send a confirmation signal! Tanya ordered. She is a hero and has direct command over any clone above her rank.

"Yes!" Room 143 is constantly sending radio signals.

The radio waves penetrated the sky, and soon arrived at the sub-base in the Xinmi region, and then transmitted to Meng Xiang's side.

"Okay, launch!" Meng Xiang did not hesitate to start launching the V3 rocket directly according to the coordinates provided by Tanya.

The V3 rocket was built, but it has never been useful. But Meng Xiang only discovered a good way to use it not long ago.

Without the implantation of base units, Tanya is a good signal source.

Whether it is a clone or a dog produced by the base, the location can only be displayed within the direct jurisdiction of the base, and the farther away from the center of the base, the more blurred the signal becomes. Outside the confines of the direct jurisdiction, nothing can be revealed. But Tanya is an exception.

Even if it runs out of the direct jurisdiction of the base, as long as the radar station can still cover it, the red dot representing Tanya's location can be searched with a search. Just like the back door that Meng Xiang installed on the Nagato, where Tanya is there, the coordinates can be clearly indicated. This certainly provides a new use for v3.

"What's that?" Yuichi Ouchi, who was constantly observing the sky, suddenly saw several black dots appear in the sky, and there were fiery red ones behind them. There was not a single sound. But it was fast, and it flew in the blink of an eye, and the flames that erupted from behind it were very conspicuous, like the kind of blizzard cannon he had seen in the vanguard. This gave him a bad thought in his heart.

Before he could hesitate, the thing had already reached the sky above the headquarters, and at this time, it seemed that the fuselage was more than ten meters long, like a strange-looking plane without wings and propellers, but the flames from behind it made him even more uneasy. But he didn't have time to sound the alarm, and with the top speed of Mach 4.8 in the V3, even the sound was thrown behind, not to mention his hesitant hand.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! A continuous loud bang was heard.

The huge pillar of smoke was just soaring into the sky at the position of the headquarters, and a dozen small black dots rushed behind it, which continued to scatter and bombard around. Each V3 warhead has more than a ton of explosives. The equivalent of more than a dozen tons of high-purity explosives, with the huge impact of the bomb body, exploded directly in the headquarters of the devil, instantly razing this place to the ground.

Ma Feiyan looked at the sea of fire from afar, and couldn't close her mouth in a daze. If she had gone in just now, I'm afraid she would have been in pieces long ago.

Tanya was holding the telescope and constantly observing, and 143 kept sending signals.

"Let you assassinate me again! 10 times the return! Hahaha! Meng Xiang laughed when he heard the news. This time, just looking at his military exploits and moving a little visibly, I knew that this time I had killed at least a dozen generals myself. For this plan, he specially prepared ten V3s to be placed near Zhengzhou. As soon as they received the signal from Tanya's team, they all blasted over. More than 100 kilometers, with the high speed of V3, it will arrive in an instant. All 20 projectiles were smashed there.

The coordinates are where Tanya deviates by more than a thousand meters, and they have already obtained the layout of the headquarters through reconnaissance planes and internal personnel. The locals there have all been driven away, and the people nearby are all talking about themselves, and they are all about to become a big barracks, and they are not afraid of accidental injury. Although Tanya's coordinate guidance is more accurate, there are still some deviations, so Tanya is a kilometer away from the target to avoid accidental injury.

This time, the most recent one landed just 300 meters away from them, and the huge shock wave blew Tanya's hair up.

But the goals of the command have been completely erased, and the mission has been successfully completed.

Although a complete body could no longer be found there, and the results of the battle could not be determined, in his internal report, it was said that the fifteen generals, including Lieutenant General Tada, could no longer be found. However, this time Seishiro Itagaki escaped again. In view of the disorderly command of the Shanxi troops, he was specially sent to Shanxi for unified command. Shortly before the meeting.

But the division commanders and chiefs of staff of the 5th, 9th, 16th, 13th, and 106th divisions were basically reduced to pieces here. Everywhere was burned to char and shattered by the heat of the explosion, and it was no longer possible to tell who was who. Until N years later, it was still a barren meadow, but the weeds grew extraordinarily luxuriantly.

"I order, all of them, start fighting back!" Meng Xiang ordered loudly. At this time, it was not yet ten o'clock in the morning, and all the high-ranking commanders who said that they had fallen into hell, and their command was chaotic and uncoordinated, which was just right for an attack that was more than a second.

Ready, the vanguard army immediately began to attack.

The tank units of the teaching team and the mechanized units of the 50 Division took off their camouflage and attacked together. As long as there is a nearby base that is constantly producing tanks, there is no need to travel thousands of miles to transport tanks over. It is said that the infantry counted by me, after changing into equipment, immediately became a mechanized unit. The difference in combat effectiveness between the two is huge.

The nominal 57th Army looked like it had only three infantry divisions, but it turned into an ironclad elite. Coupled with the mechanized troops of the 41st Division that set out from Shangqiu, Meng Xiang basically moved all the mechanized troops that had not yet been equipped here.

The teaching team set off from Zhengzhou, the 50th Division set off from Kaifeng, and the 41st Division set off from Shangqiu, and the three sharp knives cut the devil's team. The 56th Army north of the Yellow River and the 57th Army scattered quickly assembled and marched south of the Yellow River, moving faster than I judged. The operations of the motorized units are beginning to bear fruit.

Although the teaching team and the 41st and 50th divisions have not yet been fully replenished, and they are not yet complete mechanized divisions and tank units, such a few and a half units can already compete with the five divisions of the devils who command confusion. If we add the six divisions of the two armies that have already reached the Yellow River, the victory or defeat has already begun to see the light of day.
