Teng Gang let the sweat on his head continue to drip down, but he didn't dare to wipe it.

The Vanguard Army's attack this time was really sudden. None of the dozen or so eyeliners inside came out. In the past, when the armies attacked, some clues could be seen in the transportation of food and weapons. But the attack of the vanguard army was very strange, and the food and weapons did not change much, but they suddenly began to attack.

At this time, the tanks of the 1st Tank Regiment of the Vanguard Army were still in the west and south, but more than two or three hundred tanks rushed directly to the front of the devil's formation.

If there are still some clues on the transfer of personnel in Qingdao, Longkou and Penglai don't know where those people came from.

At this time, Penglai was also conquered by the strange soldiers from the Zhaoyuan base, and with the assistance of eight aircraft, two small gunboats in the port were directly sunk by the aircraft. Other, smaller patrol boats could not stop even the large-caliber machine guns of the Thunderbolt aircraft. Penglai is also easy to start.

Similarly, the 18th Division, which advanced in the middle, had already connected Pingdu, Laixi and Laiyang in the smoke and dust of more than 100 tanks.

Garrisoned in these places were the 133 Wing of the 163 Brigade Regiment. They also had to defend Laizhou, and as soon as their forces were scattered, except for a brigade equipped with artillery and other heavy weapons assembled in Pingdu, the others were less than one brigade. In the vast area outside the county, there are many places where there is no one.

Sun Liren directly commanded the tank corps and troop trucks to cross the heavily guarded Pingdu county town and go straight to Laixi and Laiyang, while Pingdu was attacked by the lagging infantry.

Relying on the county seat, the devil dug trenches and fortifications outside the city, trying to block the attack of the vanguard army. But the vanguard army was not in a hurry to attack, and 18 105-mm howitzers were placed on the position, which directly bombarded the devil's position, and the devil's three 75 field guns and four 70 infantry guns directly lost their temper, and the captain Kobayashi Nakao had to order the devils to go into the city to fight street battles.

But when they arrived at the bottom of the city, they found that the banner of the vanguard army had been hung on the city.

When the people of Pingdu heard that the vanguard army was coming, they had been looking forward to it for a long time. Even the puppet army heard the propaganda of the vanguard army and did not pursue the puppet army that had no major evil deeds, but also rebelled in the city, plus some internal personnel of the vanguard army killed the devils of a squad guarding the city gate here.

At this time, the soldiers of the vanguard army began to charge. After the barrage ploughed through the exposed targets, the soldiers followed and rushed to the trenches. The remaining four T-34 tanks, which helped in the attack, pushed directly through the trenches.

Xiao Lin Zhongnan led the remaining devils around the city, wanting to enter the city through other city gates.

But two HS-123 planes directly pinned his team at the corner. I could only watch as the vanguard army entered Pingdu County and began to clear out the devils of a squadron there.

And the artillery began to extend to their feet, and the tanks also surrounded them, and the remaining 500 people of the devils could only cower in a corner to resist the suppression of the vanguard army.

Jiang Zeshan, who was in charge of attacking Pingdu, did not charge, but set up machine guns around him to surround him, and let the large and small mortars in the regiment bombard them one by one.

The battalion that entered the city could easily deal with a squadron in the city, with the support of the people, the devils had nowhere to hide, and the people had already informed the devils in advance where they were, and the HS-123 aircraft flew directly over their heads and circled and strafed.

A battalion of more than 800 people in the vanguard army was too easy to deal with a squadron of devils of more than 100 people. One of the companies directly ignored the devils, went straight to the corner of the city, and when they arrived at the corner, according to Jiang Zeshan's method, they set up 6 80 mortars and 12 45 mortars at the corner of the city, and condescendingly began to accurately roll the devils under the city.

Xiaolin Zhongnan and these devils could only be passively bombed, and they wanted to rush out, but they were forced back by the machine gun. Seeing that more and more mortars were erected at the head of the city, even the large-caliber M2 was erected on the city wall, but there was nowhere to hide, and it was suffocated alive at the corner of the city.

With the cooperation of the two guerrilla brigades, the people of Laixi and Laiyang directly opened the city gate, so that Sun Liren, who planned to go around the city and go straight to Yantai, had to let the troops leave some people to take over the county seat and clear the remnants of the enemy.

Sun Liren rode an SDKFZ251/1 troop carrier armored vehicle and slowly drove through Laiyang County. Listening to the fierce machine gun fire in the city, he did not hesitate and continued to direct the others to attack forward. He agreed with Meng Xiang's blitzkrieg. The soldiers are very fast, and with speed, you can break the enemy's deployment arrangement and gain the initiative.

Attacking all the way, not giving the devil much chance to react at all. Especially in Laiyang, the devil's brigade is still collecting grain in the countryside. After the summer grain harvest, every household has surplus grain, which is the time for other organizations to organize activities, and it is also the time for the devils to attack and sweep. The common people hid all the grain, and the devils also learned to be shrewd, and suddenly went to the countryside to clean up and harvest grain many times.

Because the devils are scattered in various villages and towns, it is not easy to gather and annihilate, so you can only leave some people to clean them up slowly.

Tanks still lagged behind the planes.

Wu Sanshan once again watched the formation of planes pass overhead and fly towards Yantai, this is already the second batch. The first planes went to the airfield of the sneak attack on the devil early, and it was time to return. He didn't say much, just silently watched the plane go away. However, some tactics such as the air-tank cooperation mentioned by the instructor and the threat of the air force to tanks came to mind.

The tanks underneath him were still advancing. When we arrived at Qixia on the way, we passed a newly built repair shop and a logistics equipment center at the Zhaoyuan sub-base, which provided food, water and oil, and some of the consumed machine gun ammunition could also be replenished nearby.

"Mobilize the manpower to shrink to the vicinity of the port, and be sure to stop them!" Major General Mitake Tsuda, the commander of the 133rd Brigade, shouted loudly to the commander of the 110th Wing, Shinichi Yanagawa Shinichisa, but he knew that there was little hope of holding on. The vanguard army broke through all the way, and just received news that Qixia had been lost. The tank units of the Vanguard Army arrived near Yantai.

This attack went even more smoothly than the previous one, mainly because of the support of the common people, and the news of the subsistence allowance has spread throughout all regions, and they are all looking forward to the vanguard army coming over, being included in the special zone, and enjoying the minimum basic security benefits. Qi Xia was also cooperated by the people and the puppet army with the guerrilla brigade to open the city gate in advance while fighting the devils, and the vanguard of the vanguard army directly attacked in.

Sun Liren looked at the team around him, after occupying four county towns in a company, there were only tank troops and an infantry battalion in front of him. This time, he dispatched three regiments of his three brigades to fight a surprise attack, in order to take a look at the specific situation of each brigade in an impartial manner. lest someone say that he is biased towards Li Hong.

One regiment in Pingdu, two battalions in Laixi, one battalion in Laiyang, and Qixia behind him also lost two battalions. This arrangement is for the sake of steady and steady fighting, and the other is that he found that the speed of the infantry could not keep up with the speed of the tanks, and if he attacked alone with a tank group, the siege might not work, but the effect of breaking through the position would be better. At this time, he also understood the reason why the vanguard army separately listed the tank troops.

The intelligence of the reconnaissance plane in front has already arrived, and the devils are concentrating on defense towards the port, and at this time they need a knife to stab straight past and disrupt the defensive deployment of the devils.

He looked at Hu Er, who was walking with him.

"General Wang, your tank troops will directly assault the port and occupy the positions here, here!" He pointed to the map and said to Tiger Er. Hu Er was a major general like him, and this time, Meng Xiang temporarily handed over the command to him. Even though Meng Xiang knew that the tank corps' solo combat assault effect in the blitzkrieg was better, he did not intervene in Sun Liren's command.

This time to deal with a division in Jiaodong, under the premise that the aircraft and tank armor are superior, there should be no major difficulties, all he needs to do is sit in the headquarters and wait for the good news to come.

At this time, all that Terauchi Shouichi heard in the headquarters was bad news.

The counties were captured by the vanguard army one by one, and even Qingdao had fallen into the hands of the vanguard army at this time. More than sixty large and small ships there sank in the last struggle of the devils. Once the ship begins to sink by itself, it is difficult to stop it, especially on large ships, which are intricate and unaware of the situation, and before they can find the location of the sea valve, the water has already been opened.

And some key parts are also put on some explosives, which are directly destroyed, so that you can't use them if you salvage them. At this time, the devil used this for the foot handle.

There were quite a few ships running out of the port on the Yantai side, but the main force of the 110th Wing was stuck in the port, and it was surrounded by the vanguard army.

More than forty planes rushed to support Tianjin and Texas were intercepted halfway, and God knows how the vanguard army had so many planes. According to the news, more than 100 gunboats flew in the sky of Qingdao, and more than 60 gunboats were constantly attacking the forts, artillery positions, and harbor in the sky above the port of Yantai.

At this time, more than forty aircraft were dispatched to intercept, so the vanguard army had at least two hundred aircraft.

Where did they get these planes? Except for the newly built research institute on aircraft in Weifang, there is no news of a similar factory in the base of the Vanguard Army. Their workshops and factories may be able to build an aircraft from the First World War, but those advanced planes cannot be built by the Empire, so how can these backward Chinese people produce them?

They can only be brought in through the outside. The bastards in the Navy still insisted that there was no problem with the coastal defense. But can they hold the air? Or under the ocean?

"Submarines?" Shouichi Terauchi suddenly had such a word in his head. The weapons transport of the vanguard army, they have not caught their heels, and the only harvest was specially leaked by Meng Xiang, but when the devil's patrol boat went to check, it suddenly exploded. However, judging from some of the salvaged gun parts, it seems that they were the transportation channels of the vanguard army.

But at this time, Shouichi Terauchi thought about whether it was possible for the vanguard army to be transported by submarine? Otherwise, why can't it be explained, after the Navy has increased its patrols, there is still no gain. But in the vast sea, how can submarines blockade it?

He drew the words sky and submarine on the paper, but he was at a loss. If we cannot block the passage for the vanguard army to transport weapons, we will not be able to stop the development and growth of the vanguard army. The rest can only bet on the Vanguard Army, and the funds are limited.

"How many troops can you raise in Shandong?" After thinking for a while based on comprehensive information, and adding donations and other resources from foreign Chinese, Terauchi only set a 200,000 yuan, which was already the limit of his thinking. With so many weapons to raise, 150,000 could bring down the vanguard army, and this 200,000 could only be possible if a miracle happened.

But even with an army of 150,000, it made Terauchi Shouichi restless. He has been planted in the hands of the vanguard too many times, and keeping the vanguard army is always a scourge.

"After the end of Zhengzhou, clean up the vanguard army first! This time, we must clean up the vanguard army first! He gritted his teeth.

"This time, the power we showed was too great." Pharmacist Tang said with some concern. In less than a day, Qingdao has been captured, and Yantai is only left with the devils who are shrinking in the port to resist, but according to Sun Liren's tone, it will definitely be captured today. The others have also captured ** counties in a row, and such a record is too dazzling.

Dazzling to the point that the center of the devil's attack is about to shift to the vanguard.

"The stronger we behave, the more cautious we will be when the devil attacks, the little devil is such a person, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard. It will be a lot of losses to beat us, and he will have to worry a lot. At this time, they occupied the northeast and Korea, and the north had to worry about Soviet Russia. Two days ago, they conquered Guangzhou and hit Jiujiang. Where does he have so many troops? When there are fewer people to fight us, we are naturally not afraid, and we are better at home. Meng Xiang smiled lightly.

"I'm not worried about myself outside, but I'm afraid there will be a lot of people in China who will make trouble." Tang Yaoshi said, Lao Jiang occupies the righteousness, and many times, some general forces will make the vanguard army very passive.

"As long as the subsistence allowance policy is implemented, we will occupy the hearts of the people, and those clowns who jump off the beam are not afraid. Even if the center is pressed, it is not afraid. When the time comes, what about turning the other cheek? Meng Xiang's words are not blind arrogance, with the economic support of the base, and with the subsistence allowance in hand, he has captured the hearts of the people and is invincible. Unless someone takes a salary from the bottom of the pot and comes up with a better way to do it, and has the ability to implement it. Otherwise, the people have always supported him, just look at the attack on Yantai, and the enthusiasm of the people will be known.

Besides, Lao Jiang would not be stupid to turn his face with him at this time.

"I'm afraid that someone will use small actions again, and the general should pay extra attention to safety!" Pharmacist Tang didn't know about the base, and his self-confidence was a little worse. Especially Meng Xiang's safety, fortunately Meng Xiang woke up, otherwise the last time the vanguard army would have really collapsed.

"I'll pay special attention, I've already found a few good bodyguards!"
