"I didn't expect that thirteen of these eighteen people had backgrounds." Meng Xiang couldn't help but smile when he took the investigation report handed over by Rat Er, "2 British, 2 French, 1 Canadian, 2 Americans, 1 German, 3 Soviet Russians, 1 Italian, 1 Czech." There are also [***] backgrounds from all sides, and this is really about to become the United Nations. Hehe! ”

"They were attracted by lightning strikes and BF-109 aircraft." Fan Chong frowned and said.

"They're welcome to come more! Then we'll have a lot easier. Meng Xiang said with a smile, but he thought of thunder and lightning in his heart, and he was afraid that the secret of thunder and lightning would not be kept. The next step is to determine how to come up with the price. Anyway, when the time comes, push it out, push it to the top of the cottage company and the umbrella company, and the first and second rooms are responsible for negotiations, and the price is high, and those who are willing to buy it will be removed from the equipment that is too eye-catching.

"It's a pity they didn't catch up with this air battle!" Meng Xiang also regretted that it was a pity not to use these dozen coolies.

The air battle was limited by fuel and ammunition, and the confrontation was not very long, and it was near the end of the time, but it was still fierce.

The devils have left the area of anti-aircraft fire, but the entanglement of the vanguard continues. If these planes were not cleared, the devil's plane did not dare to go to Xuzhou, and it would be even more troublesome if it was intercepted when he came back from exhaustion. The planes of the vanguard army, however, were constantly entangled with the help of air defense positions. In that airspace, planes were shuttling everywhere, and the formations of both sides were scattered by the flying bullets, and the melee was in a scuffle.

Zhao Zhengxiang nervously watched the fighting planes in the sky whizzing past their live broadcast room, and from time to time felt the dust from the explosion of the falling plane, forgot the live broadcast microphone in front of him, and muttered: "Why didn't I become a pilot in the first place?" ”

The six planes that rushed from Weifang also broke into the battlefield, relieving the pressure on the Vanguard Army planes. Although there was already a result of 17 to 6, the devils were also increasing the casualties of the vanguard army with the advantage of numbers.

Another BF-109B aircraft fell, compared to the loss of only 1 Thunderbolt, the BF-109B aircraft has already lost 5 aircraft, but then Raiden's machine gun also shot down two Nakajima 91 type. After a few more rendezvouses, Tetsuji Yi and his wingman avoided the strafing of a lightning plane, and looked around with some annoyance.

The Vanguard's aircraft defenses were so thick that a single 7.7 mm machine gun bullet hitting it didn't do much to it. On the contrary, the attack of its sharp six large-caliber machine guns can easily tear through the body of the Type 96, or even explode directly. The only wrecked lightning bolt hit its fuel tank. But the fuel tank is so good to hit? This requires a high level of skill.

The vanguard army also changed its tactics, 7 BF-109Bs were wandering outside, and the remaining eleven republican Thunderbolts were rampage directly in the devil's planes with thick skin and rough flesh, and the machine guns were splashed everywhere unscrupulously, directly destroying most of the slow-moving 91 type.

The surname of the Empire's aircraft can be too much worse. Even the Type 96, which was newly put into use this time, was no match for the kind of aircraft of the vanguard army, not to mention the Nakajima Type 91, which was shot down in large numbers. Judging from this situation, if the remaining planes had not hit their weak points, they would have been shot down one by one.

"Another plane from the Vanguard Army is coming!" Alert on the perimeter of the aircraft in charge of reconnaissance reported.

Yi E-toru looked into the distance, where more than twenty planes were flying.

"Retreat!" Tetsuji had to give the order to retreat in pain. Nearly half of the planes that flew in this time have already been lost, and if they are entangled by more than 20 planes that come here, I am afraid that the losses will be even greater.

The aircraft of the vanguard followed for some distance and then stopped. After crossing the Yellow River, the loss of planes is small, and the lost pilots are likely to not be able to recover. In this air battle, nine planes of the Vanguard Army were shot down, but only three pilots died, and the others parachuted out. Three of the injured were also treated in a timely manner.

Of the nine planes destroyed, only two were lightning, which hit the fuel tank and damaged the wing, killing one and wounding the other. The others are all BF-109B aircraft. Although Raiden also took a lot of bullets, Thick Skin took credit.

In this campaign, 23 devil planes were shot down.

"That's it?" Huang Mian waited to destroy the enemy with his eyes raised, but he only saw the back of the devil's plane.

"Isn't there still a fight in the south? Let's go south! Chen Qiguang shouted, he had just changed to a fighter but had no results, but he was a little unwilling.

Feng Yi agreed to their request, because the situation on Zaozhuang's side was also critical.

The devil planes from the south and the HNA arrived almost at the same time, and the roar of the engines of more than 60 planes overshadowed the guns of the battlefield.

Among the more than 30 fighters in Yanzhou, there are only 12 Thunderbolts, and they are responsible for intercepting the devil's HNA plane. These belong to the 2nd Combined Air Force, which is subordinate to the Navy.

By virtue of the surprise, after defeating the devil's 4 Type 96 shipboard fighters, the battle then entered a stalemate. The pilots of the HNA relied on their superb skills and the good circling surname of the 96 ship battle, and most of the time they were in the fight, so that the slightly cumbersome lightning attack could not be attacked. Of course, they didn't have a problem with thunder and lightning, but they divided ten planes to attack the other planes.

The Central China Dispatch Army sent several reconnaissance planes from the 10th Reading Squadron of the 3rd Flying Regiment and the 1st Reading Squadron.

They were faced with 20 BF-109Bs, although the surname can be a little better than the surname of the devil's plane, but it can't stop the devil's plane. In the continuous attacks on both sides, planes also continued to fall, and in just over half an hour, the number of planes falling on both sides had exceeded single digits.

Although the vanguard army only crashed eleven, which is less than the sixteen of the devils, the rate of casualties is indeed getting faster and faster, and five planes were destroyed within ten minutes after the participation of the devil planes of Hainan Airlines.

The Thunderbolt over there also lost 2 planes, and in exchange for 4 planes. No matter how good the devil's skills are, they can't stop the strafing of multiple machine guns in the chaotic battle. The phoenix warriors of the vanguard army also saw the advantage of the thick skin of the thunderbolt, and directly rushed back and forth, expanding the scope of the battle to the other side, and with the flexibility of the BF-109B, they disrupted the formation of the devils together.

The battle on the ground continued unaffected. This time, the devil only brought six bombers, and after blowing up two tanks, these six bombers were brutally killed by the rushing thunderbolts, one by the wandering BF-109B, and one by the anti-aircraft machine guns on the ground, only the dry two were still hovering in the sky. It can only be on the side of the Central Army, but it is no longer close to the side of the vanguard army with anti-aircraft machine guns.

The 108th Division's Shimoto Kuami kept conveying orders for the troops to break through to the west and strive to join the 109th and 10th Divisions. But the teams that had been divided, few of them received this order, and they were all fighting on their own. Constantly being crushed by the iron armor of the tanks that returned to the battlefield.

Xia Yuan's headquarters continued to move westward, but when it reached the Xisha River, it was blocked by the blocked Central Army. The Central Army took advantage of its numbers, and after the armored tanks swept across the battlefield, they swept and occupied the territory one by one, and now they have controlled most of it.

After receiving the request of Kuma Shimoto, the fighters in the sky also began to help attack the ground troops, and guided the remnants of the devil to gather. Gradually, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi gathered nearly a thousand people around him. But this was almost the limit of the people he could gather, and the blood of most devils had already fertilized the land.

"Fuck! Those winged ones are a little uncompromising, and let the devil's plane run over our heads and. After refueling and repairing in the repair shop, the tank was speeding on the battlefield again, and Wu Sanshan's heart cleared the previous depression, but it didn't take long for a devil's plane to shoot at the tank. Although this bullet is like tickling, it also makes Wu Sanshan feel very unhappy.

Also unhappy was Gu Yongjun, as a small battalion commander in the 68th Army, who was attacking a group of devils who retreated to a small earthen platform, but was strafed by the devil's plane, and after killing more than a dozen attacking soldiers, he directly interrupted the charge led by him. However, under the guidance and cover of the plane, more than 30 devils there evacuated towards another place where the devils gathered.

"What about the aircraft of the Vanguard Army? Earlier, wasn't there a lot of darkness in the sky? Why is there so little now? Gao Liansheng, the commander of the company who followed him and charged together, couldn't help but look at the sky and asked.

Gu Yongjun glanced at him angrily: "Those planes are not the same, one is a fighter plane that is specifically responsible for fighting planes, and the other is a bomber that specializes in throwing shells like artillery." He can only explain it like this, otherwise Gao Liansheng wouldn't be able to understand, but he doesn't know what the specific plane is.

"What kind of planes are those?" Gao Liansheng suddenly pointed in the distance, and more than a dozen planes flew over from the north.

Gu Yongjun raised the telescope he had just captured and looked at it, and said in surprise: "That's also the plane of the vanguard army!" ”

These were the planes that came to reinforce the Laiwu base, and after arriving, the eight Republican Thunderbolts began to wield power, and under the command of Feng Ba, they swept down the two bombers attacking the periphery, and the other planes attacking the infantry on the battlefield were also shot down two. With the support of these 16 planes from the Laiwu base, the situation on the battlefield was immediately improved.

After less than ten minutes of fighting, the plane from Jinan also arrived.

After seeing the 8 Republic Raiden leading the flight in front and the more than 30 planes behind, the commander of the devil, Tadashi Shiga, gave the order to evacuate. Although there are still more than 40 planes left, there is not much fuel and ammunition for the planes that have been fought for so long, and it is almost dusk, and once they are entangled in those planes, the losses will be even greater.

Under the ground, the 1,000 people of the Yuan Xiong Ya were dismembered into five or six pieces by the tank armor. At another place of the 109th Division, the sound of artillery continued to stop, and the four planes that went to check were fiercely attacked by anti-aircraft artillery, and two were lost. In this case, he had to withdraw first.

Xia Yuan Xiong Mi looked at the ghost plane in the distance, couldn't help but close his eyes weakly, and sighed. said to the chief of staff, Toshiyuki Suzuki, "Send a telegram to the base camp and say that I was martyred." ”

As he spoke, he took the military flag of the 117th Wing handed over by Gao Shu Kaiichi next to him, stroked it twice, and personally lit it, surrounded by more than a dozen officers of all sizes who hung their heads. With a bleak singing sound, more than 200 devil soldiers outside launched a charge towards the Central Army surrounding them. For a while, a passage was opened.

"There seem to be big fish out there!" Wu Sanshan, who was nearby, saw the situation over there, and couldn't help but turn the head of the car and rush towards that side.

He was not the only one who discovered the situation here, but the reconnaissance planes in the sky also discovered the situation here, and those fighters who had not yet evacuated rushed over in a swarm.

Liang Tiancheng drove the newly familiar thunderbolt, and the six machine guns were fully fired, sweeping towards the place where the fire was ignited inside. Shimoto Kuami was shot in the shoulder, and the large-caliber machine gun bullet flew out along with his left arm.

"Burn all the flags!" Xia Yuan Xiong Mi only finished saying this, and he fainted in pain.

But the more than 30 planes of the vanguard army that followed closely behind flew over one by one, and after sweeping them for a while, they had been beaten into a pile of meat paste.

"Damn, you winged ones always rob Lao Tzu of the credit!" Wu Sanshan's tank ran over a wounded soldier with a grenade, only to find that there were no more devils here who stood up to fight back. He popped out of the tank, looked at the bloody ground around him, where he couldn't even see the dust, and cursed.

"Huh!" He suddenly saw something familiar on the ground.

"Where do you seem to have seen that?" He retracted his head and thought about it, and suddenly it occurred to him that it was somewhat similar to the wing flag of the 41st Wing that he had seen.

"This is the Wing Flag?" He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered the Tiger 315 to drive closer, and after blocking the bullet of the devil on the other side, he jumped out.

"Damn it, it's only half!" But after he pushed away the dead body on the top, he found that it was indeed a wing flag, but it was only half burned to the ground, and the traces of the burn were still there, and it was indeed soaked in blood.

But what he didn't know was that in the whole campaign, only half of his wing flag was captured. The army, division, and brigade of the devil do not have military flags, and only infantry wings, cavalry wings, chariot wings, and other combat units have military flags given by the emperor of the devils.

Wu Sanshan looked for it, and finally found the spike that had also been burned to only a small half, sighed, and stuffed it into his pocket.

At this time, the surrounding Central Army was ready to come over to receive the territory and seize the supplies, Wu Sanshan stood on the tank, crossed his waist and shouted: "We occupy this place!" ”

A second lieutenant of the Central Army shouted dissatisfiedly: "Why do you occupy it? ”

"Damn, this is our plane, what can we do if our vanguard army occupies it?" He didn't even say the name of the 54th Army, and directly opened his mouth to be the vanguard army.

The more than two or three hundred people who came over by the Central Army were a little scratchy, but then the muzzles and machine guns of Wu Sanshan's tanks turned to silence them.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all my own brother." A major came from behind the crowd and said with a smile as he walked, "Brothers are all together, so why divide each other!" ”

"Stop! My tank was the first to rush up, and our planes swept it here. Here these are our trophies. Wu Sanshan said and pointed to the dead bodies below and nodded, the wing flag just now made him realize that there were big fish here, even dead fish were valuable.

"If only there was a wing commander's corpse here, there was a military flag, maybe there were!" Wu Sanshan pinched his waist and stared straight at the major who was in a dilemma.

A rumbling sound came from behind him, a tank stopped not far away, the 76.2 mm muzzle pointed directly at the place where the most soldiers in the center were located, Wang Zhongfa showed his head and shouted: "What's the matter!" ”

"Nothing! I just told this brother that I am going to give you the brothers of the Central Army thirty 38 big covers, thank you brothers for helping by the side. Wu Sanshan laughed, but he detained that the Central Army was just a helping role, and the Central Army also participated in the siege here just now, which cannot be erased.

When the major saw that Wu Sanshan gave him a step down, he also smiled and said, "Then I thank you on behalf of all the brothers, we have to go to other places to kill devils, don't do it for the time being." Walk! ”

With that, six soldiers who were ready to receive guns were left behind, and the others rushed in the direction of the assault of another tank unit.

"Is this bit of worth it?" Wang Zhongfa, who received the signal from Wu Sanshan to ask the Tiger 315 to rush over, kicked a 38 rifle that was blown to pieces under his feet, grinned, and showed two large teeth.

"There's something good!" Wu Sanshan approached him and said softly.

"What's good?" Wang Zhongfa looked around, leaned over to him and handed him a victory cigarette.

Wu Sanshan lit a cigarette with the faint blue flame of the clothes on the corpse of a devil next to him, took a deep breath, and said lightly: "This may be a wing headquarters, there is a wing flag!" ”

After the infantry of the vanguard army arrived, they casually pulled thirty intact 38 rifles from the battlefield, sent away the six soldiers of the Central Army who were waiting with envy, surrounded the place, and began to search carefully. As a result, it didn't take long for the bodies of Shimoto Kuami and others to be discovered, and their identities were quickly determined.

"This is not the wing headquarters, this is the division headquarters of the devils, let's send it!" Wang Zhongfa excitedly grabbed Wu Sanshan's hand, who was a little dazed, and shook it vigorously.

Wu Sanshan stood there and muttered vigorously: "A lieutenant general! That's a devil lieutenant general! ”
