Meng Xiang built a total of three barracks near Zhengzhou, and it was useless to build more. The Vanguard suffered few casualties, and even though the clones led the charge every time they fought, there were still not many vacancies. This is also the reason why Meng Xiang only prepared 40 armored vehicles. Each SDKFZ251/1 troop carrier has a new squad of ten people, plus the driver and commander, exactly twelve.

The barracks were just ordinary soldiers, untrained, and unable to drive tanks and armored vehicles, so Meng Xiang specially sent more than 300 tank armored personnel to respond. That's how you can get those tanks and armored vehicles in motion. And in the barracks, only more than 300 people were produced, and even 400 people could not be gathered. Because of the need to control the army and the locality, Meng Xiang only hated the limited number of clones, and the 20,000 places were basically full, how many vacancies were available. It was in this battle that more than 300 clone soldiers were sacrificed before they were replenished here.

However, even these few people, after being armed with tanks and armored vehicles, immediately became a force of surprise soldiers and hit directly behind the devil.

As long as he is within the direct jurisdiction of the base, Meng Xiang can conjure a sharp blade that can stab the enemy's henchmen. Those walls and moats could not stop them, and they collapsed from within.

"Although this is also a good way for a Yin person, but this number limit and buildings are too abrupt, and some restrictions are a little restrictive, how nice it would be if there were space-time teleporters!" Meng Xiangwu was not satisfied, but without the support of space-time technology, I am afraid that the space-time teleportation soldiers would not be able to produce them. And the space-time technology is probably going to be upgraded to level 5 in the base.

Even so, the base is still invincible.

It's night, but the devil's reinforcements are still pouring in. Behind Huang Baitao's 57th Army was also spreading its formation, expanding to both sides. The line of defense of the river embankment controlled by the vanguard army also quickly expanded from 3 kilometers to more than a dozen kilometers. The surrounding pillbox fortifications were conquered by tanks one by one.

On the sixteenth day of the first month, the full moon is in the sky. The ground was shining with silver light, and there were flares that bounced off from time to time, shining brightly. The beams of light from the searchlights mounted on trucks and armored vehicles are also constantly intertwined to patrol the surroundings.

In the sky, the "Havoc" fighter plane, accompanied by its modified "Turbine Light" aircraft, patrolled the ground together. He said that he took advantage of the darkness of night to bombard the position of the vanguard army with artillery. As soon as the fire flashed, the fighter plane would rush over. The main attacker is the D-8 of the Ju-87, which is an improved version of the D-5 in night combat, and like the D-7, it is a night ground attack type.

As they undone Stuka's famous scream, the attack in the darkness was all the more sudden. Six Stuka D-8s overturned four Devil artillery positions in a company. The giant cannon is also not idle at night, and the attack of the devil's artillery fire in the direct jurisdiction can be directly scanned by the radar station, and it is quickly fed back to the giant cannon, and the bombardment according to the instructions on the screen still maintains a high accuracy rate. As long as it is not an artillery position in a special position, the giant artillery will be bombarded directly. Even the place where the devils gathered, under the infrared scanning of the night reconnaissance plane, was locked by the giant cannon and bombarded over.

In order not to be too passive, and also to ensure the safety of the Yellow River embankment, the vanguard army that crossed the river was pushed under the advance of tanks until the city of Zhengzhou. Before the devil's reinforcements left the city, they were blocked in the city by the vanguard army.

The flames of war were torn from time to time to dot the peaceful night. The guns rumbled all night.

The position outside Zhengzhou to the embankment of the Yellow River was constantly contested by the two sides, and the gap between the two sides was narrowed a lot by nightfall, and even with the moonlight and lights, the role of artillery and machine guns was greatly limited. And the crowd tactics launched by the devils washed the positions of the vanguard army like a tide under the cover of the night.

Some of the vanguard army's defense areas were almost broken away by such a crowd, and if it weren't for the ruthlessness of the clones, some novices of the defending 57th Army almost retreated. The backbone of the clones and the veterans of the 54th Army finally survived, and the new soldiers of the 57th Army gradually matured in the flame of sacrifice of life in the thick dark night.

When the dawn of dawn reached both sides of the Yellow River, the corpses of devils were already everywhere outside Zhengzhou. The recapture of the Yellow River defense line became the only order from top to bottom. What is more advantageous to them than the vanguard army is the natural danger of the Yellow River, if they fail, I am afraid that they will be forced back by the tanks and rocket artillery of the vanguard army for hundreds of miles.

The warmth of the morning sun cannot melt the coldness of death on the battlefield. Only a more intense war will make people choose to forget when they are hot.

The devils attacked all night in a row, and there was still no intention of stopping until dawn, but the-yellow army was still gathering. Tada Jun is betting on his army. The surrounding 16th Divisions were transferred one after another, trying to make up for the gap in the chain of the Yellow River.

But after dawn, the gray uniforms of the vanguard army were no longer limited to the south bank of the Yellow River. The night did not stop the movement of the vanguard soldiers, and the pontoon bridges had become eight, four of which had already sent tens of thousands of troops to the south bank of the Yellow River. Some of the soldiers who crossed the river surrounded the Yellow River defense line on both sides, and some marched directly to the south and east.

Yesterday, the 1st Brigade of the 41st Division, which had already pinned down the 13th Division, had pinned down the 1st Division for one day, and directly attacked Kaifeng with the 2nd Brigade of the 112th Division that rushed over after dawn. But their purpose was to contain and block the soldiers rescued by the 13th Division of Kaifeng and clear the enemy outside the city. The focus of the vanguard army's attack was still Zhengzhou. Only by capturing Zhengzhou will the entire battle situation be completely changed.

The soldiers of the 16th Division continued to pour out, suffering more than 10,000 casualties overnight, and they did not block the issuance of the shock order. The madness of the army's battle to the death had not been extinguished after a night, and the only thing they had to rely on was the courage of the cattle.

Last night, the tanks that were fighting the fire everywhere burned the last trace of fuel before withdrawing, and only about 20 of the 60 tanks that were on guard were able to move at this time. There are also more than a dozen tanks that have been blown up by devil bullets in the dark, piled up in the mountain of corpses that are about to overflow the tracks, acting as fixed fortresses and continuing to pour ammunition. It is easy for a cluster grenade to destroy the tracks of the T-34, but it is difficult to crack its hard shell.

When the red moonlight disappeared, the tank troops from the Yellow River regained the initiative on the battlefield.

As the sky brightened, the tank troops began to attack again, constantly cutting off and dividing the devil's army, and annihilating them with the infantry troops.

Last night, I relied on the bright moonlight to forcibly rush more than a dozen fighters, but except for the two that escaped back to report the news, the rest were beaten down by the Pioneer Army's radar-detected catastrophe and Black Widow planes, achieving a record of 13 to 1. Today, however, he and more than 200 planes drawn from elsewhere by the vanguard met again.

Another round of air battles moved from the Yellow River to the nearby skies over Zhengzhou, and the pursuing planes ran all the way to the vicinity of Luoyang, Kaifeng.

He said that 30 new Zero planes that I had newly transferred from China also flew directly from Nanjing. And more vanguard elites and aces also drove the Thunderbolt N to mobilize from all over the country. During this period of time, the Thunderbolt N produced by the base was enough for those elites to change to new landlines.

The Battle of Zhengzhou on the 16th day of the first lunar month also ignited the flames of war in various places. Although the incident happened suddenly, the next day there were all parties who were prepared, and the fire of the war burned even more vigorously.

The Kwantung Army beat the drums of war on the 16th, but the thunder was loud and the rain was small.

The only thing worth mentioning is that he planned to take advantage of the night to land near Qinhuangdao. But they didn't know that their figures had appeared in the display of the base's radar station, and as a result, two troop transports carrying a total of more than a thousand people were sunk directly at sea by the Avengers on the Canglong. Of the two destroyers escorting the escort, one was sunk by a huge cannon, and the other fled with serious injuries.

Without heavy damage, it would have been impossible for him to break through the blockade and defense of the giant artillery and heavy artillery. But the Kwantung Army is still hesitating, after all, how much damage, they can also estimate that it is really going to hurt their muscles and bones. And to the north of them there is Soviet Russia, spring is coming, and the hibernation period of bears is almost over.

The fear of Soviet Russia made the offensive of the Kwantung Army not sharp.

In order to involve the strength of the vanguard army, the 3rd, 27th, and 101st divisions in the Lianghuai area also began to come over to harass the 41st division of the vanguard army, but they were bombarded back by a burst of heavy artillery. In the face of the heavy artillery formation of the vanguard army, they had no way to speak, and the artillery shells of the vanguard army were like no money, as long as they went to attack, a large number of them would hit their heads at any time.

The devils in Shanxi also directly sent troops to support the 116th Division to attack from Jiao. But the 74th Division did not move there, directly blocking the impact of the devils. Wei Lihuang of Luoyang behind him also saw that there was a advantage to take advantage of, and sent troops from Zhongtiao Mountain to attack behind the devils and on the flanks.

Sun Liren's 18th Division also took advantage of the night to surprise attack Fanzhi County, took it in one fell swoop, and the next day forced Dai County to break the Yanmen Pass.

After hearing the news from the Wuhan confrontation, the situation of the battle also slowed down. The fat to be eaten has not been bitten, but the fat in the mouth is about to fall. Anhui and other places originally intended to support the Battle of Wuhan troops and materials began to be transferred to Henan.

Both the Central Army and Yue himself were mobilizing troops to seize the opportunity in this war, and everyone had long since put aside the matter of Wang Jingwei's puppet regime. The center of everyone's attention is still in Zhengzhou.

By the time noon passed, the situation in Zhengzhou had changed significantly.

The vanguard army has already invaded the city of Zhengzhou, and the 57th Army has continuously honed the tactics of street fighting in the process of integration. The 57th Army, which is still a team of 15 people, is either in groups of three or five, gradually advancing inward.

The fortifications arranged by the 16th Division in the city could not stop the close-range bombardment of the iron fist. The high-altitude Stuka precision bombardment can pull out the hard bones at any time.

Most of the people ran away at the beginning of the war, and the residents who remained in Zhengzhou lived in fear for two difficult days. However, everyone has heard of the policy of the vanguard army, and they have always hoped that the vanguard army will come to liberate and be able to eat the subsistence allowance. He said that what he said at the beginning sounded good, but after he came, in order to replenish military supplies, he continued to loot, and the people's hearts were inclined to the vanguard army. There were even many people who had the courage to run out to show the way for the vanguard army and make meritorious contributions, but did not join the vanguard army to prepare.

"There's a big warehouse for the little devils over there, and there's a lot of grain there. Mountains of flour were piled up. Shang Xingu said while pointing the way to the vanguard of the platoon behind him. He had carried the bags and choked on the dusty flour that had been swept off the bags. As soon as he heard that the vanguard army was coming, he had the idea of joining the vanguard army.

He had heard the treatment of the vanguard army before, and it was simply a landlord's life. It's just that you're afraid of a war or something, you have a bad life, and you can still get benefits for your family if you die. The 20-year military salary pension makes the parents of every family have to nag a few words. There are many children in every family, and in the era when the mortality rate is extremely high, human life is a little more expensive than grass.

"Rotten life, what are you afraid of? If I fight, I will also be a vanguard. "Shang Xingu always thinks that where can he easily get such a good thing? It is impossible to get started easily, and it is an opportunity for the vanguard to come at this time, and it will naturally please people if they make meritorious contributions. Henan's big and small parties are like this, and they have to get a certificate of nomination when they enter the door. So he braved the rain of bullets to find the vanguard directly. If he hadn't shouted Chinese, he would have almost collapsed.

He said that he was desperately crazy, and overnight, the entire 16th Division was either killed or wounded. The 13th Division was blocked and couldn't pass, the 10th Division was also dragged back, and only came to reinforce a wing, and Gongxian was also under great pressure in the face of Wei Lihuang's containment in the direction of Luoyang.

The entire division of the 16th Division had been ignited with the last passion of fanaticism, and although it was forced into the city by the fierce fire of the vanguard, there could be hidden devils everywhere. Although their tactics lacked coordination and organization, their personal skills were very solid, and they were cold from time to time, which made the vanguard army have to be careful.

So when Shang Xingu jumped out, he was almost beaten into a sieve by Suomy.

Shang Xingu once participated in the Sharpshooter Meeting, worshiped the general altar in Zhengzhou, and he was familiar with the streets and alleys of Zhengzhou, which was also his confidence in daring to come over and lead the way.

With him leading the way, the attack of a platoon that followed him was much smoother. There are also people from Zhengzhou in their platoon, but they have been away for a long time and are a little rusty. It is not as familiar as Shangxingu with the various ways of stealing chickens and dogs.

Under the leadership of Shang Xingu, this platoon successfully touched the quartermaster warehouse in one of the cities of the devils.

There weren't many people around, but a dozen devils were busy.

"They're going to burn down the warehouse." Cheng Zifeng's eyes were good, and he immediately saw that the devil was making something to ignite the fire, and his head turned sharply to know that the devil was going to burn and destroy the materials.

"Rush!" Hu Sanqian shouted in a low voice, and took the lead without hesitation and rushed out. In front of him, the holding of Somi kept beating. A dozen devils don't have as many guns as they do. Caught off guard, they fell to the ground one after another, and the flames ignited were quickly extinguished. cleaned up all the way, and soon cleared out the remaining thirty or so devils. The rest of the people who didn't see the warehouse may have been driven away.

"This is the big warehouse, and it's full of flour." Shang Xingu said as he opened the door of one of the half-hidden warehouses.

"Ahh When the door opened, everyone was taken aback, it was really piled up like Shang Xingu said, and there were bags of flour inside.

"The same is true of the other warehouses?" Cheng Zifeng asked.

"Probably!" Shang Xingu hesitated, what he said was just an exaggeration, but when he saw the flour piled up to the top in the warehouse, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.

"How much food is this?" Shang Xingu knew that at this time in Henan, most families began to lack food, and the devils were a little ruthless in order to prepare for war.

The other warehouses were counted one after another, and each warehouse was full of grain. When the 16th Division contracted into Zhengzhou, it also brought in grain. The grain they were searching for happened to be touched by Shang Xingu leading the three thousand tigers.

"Look for favorable terrain, defend in place, and pay attention to concealment!" Tiger Sanqian commanded decisively. Such a warehouse must be the target of the devil's attention. There was no burning and destruction, and there would definitely be a devil coming back soon.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lieutenant General Keisuke Fujie, commander of the 16th Division, who had not received the news for a long time, to send a squadron of soldiers again, and repeatedly instructed that this grain warehouse must be destroyed.

At this time, he already knew that Zhengzhou could not hold it. Tada Jun and Itagaki Seishiro had already gone to Xuchang in advance. They are no longer ordinary generals of the army. said that he was not all brain-dead who committed suicide after losing the battle. If the bodies of the two of them were hung up in Zhengzhou by the vanguard army in a conspicuous manner, then their faces would be lost. It was enough for Zhengzhou to leave Fujie Keisuke to die in the line of duty.

At this time, Fujie Keisuke had no other thoughts in his heart, and more than 20,000 people of the 16th Division were filled here. And the reinforcements will take another day or two, but he can't even support it for half a day. Constant news showed that even if the disabled soldiers of the 16th Division rushed forward, there were only more dead bodies. The vanguard army's street fighting tactical drills achieved very good results, and it was again a matter of fighting more and fighting less, which finally proved that his fanaticism had not yet reached the realm of invulnerability.

Hearing the news, there were more and more devils who had just arrived, Shang Xingu took them to take a shortcut, and there were not many reinforcements around, so they could only rely on themselves to defend.

After continuous assaults and purging of the army, there were only more than 20 people left in the platoon of the Tiger 3,000. But they are still holding on, and their situation is still reported on the radio. The brigade of men and horses is coming to support this side, but it will take time to be blocked by the madness of the devils.

"Platoon commander!" Hu Sanqian was shot and fell to the ground, and Cheng Zifeng couldn't help shouting. He hurriedly opened fire with his machine gun for a while, causing the devil to shrink his head.

"I'm fine. Save bullets. Hu Sanqian pressed his left shoulder and ordered lightly. They didn't carry many bullets, they went too deep, and there was nowhere to replenish them. Just now, I continued to block the devils, and the ammunition was running out.

Only then did Cheng Zifeng realize that the ammunition that he usually didn't care about was already in short supply at this time.

There was no way to save bullets, the devils rushed up like crazy, and without dense firepower, more than 20 people couldn't stop the charge of hundreds of devils.

"Prepare for melee!" Hu Sanqian was seriously injured and unconscious, and the deputy platoon commander Cheng Zifeng temporarily commanded the platoon commander, and after he shouted, he pulled out Bai Langning's high-power pistol and touched the sapper shovel placed beside him. A quick attack at close range, the pistol is not omnipotent, he doesn't have the marksmanship to knock down a devil with one shot, 13 bullets can knock down three or four devils at most, and the rest has to rely on the sapper shovel.

The first devil who jumped over the simple fortifications made of grain sacks was put down by Cheng Zifeng with one shot, and Shang Xingu picked up the sapper shovel and cut off half of the head of the devil who fell to the ground. White brains mixed with blood splashed all over him.

"Well done!" Cheng Zifeng praised it while firing two shots in a row to knock down another devil.

"Be careful!" He looked up and saw that Shang Xingu was still smirking, and he couldn't help shouting and dragging him down. A grenade exploded nearby.

There were fewer and fewer people in their platoon, and the mortar shells were even more empty, and without the effective suppression of mortars and machine guns, the grenadiers and grenades of the little devils began to increase more and more.

"Your head is broken!" Shang Xingu glanced at Cheng Zifeng gratefully, and pointed to his head.

"It's fine!" Cheng Zifeng had already felt the residual warmth of the blood lying on his cold face, but compared to the pain of being grazed by shrapnel on his head, what he was even more anxious about at this time was, why hadn't the reinforcements come yet?

At the end of another round of attacks, the bullets were almost empty, and even Cheng Zifeng's sapper shovel had knocked down a devil, and there was still half a intestine hanging on it at this time.

"Why haven't the reinforcements come yet?" Cheng Zifeng looked at the team of only twelve people left around him, and anxiety had already surfaced on his face.

"I'm dead now, can I get a pension? They don't know who I am yet. No, I can't die here. Shang Xingu already had the idea of escaping, he looked around, but suddenly saw an old house at the corner of the street in the distance, the outer wall of which suddenly collapsed in all directions. In its place is a blue-gray hemispherical building.

"What's that?" Everyone who heard the roar looked at the same time. But soon, the machine-gun bullets fired from the hole in the top told everyone what it was.

The tongue of fire that erupted from the three shooting holes sticking out of the half of the devil had swept down more than thirty devils in a short period of time. The large-caliber machine gun bullets directly shredded the hope of victory that he saw in his hands.

"Da Da Da!" Two HS-123 planes flew in the air, swooping down and constantly strafing the devils hiding everywhere.

"Our reinforcements have arrived!" Cheng Zifeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the conspicuous sign on the plane.
