Chapter 506 High Nine's Influence

Because the bombing of Cangxian County will be launched tomorrow morning, the Japanese army at Peking Airport has parked a large number of bombers on the runway, and the planes are filled with oil, so they can only wait for the air bombs to be loaded after dawn and then take off.

Wang Zhankui led the special forces team members to quietly approach the airport during the night. The special forces team members did not need Wang Zhankui's specific explanation at all. Everyone had a very tacit understanding of their cooperation. Some of the team members were preparing to deal with the Japanese patrol team and the firepower points responsible for guarding around them. Some of the team members took the rocket launcher to attack the planes at the airport. Wang Zhankui personally led 50 team members to attack the towers, ammunition depots and oil depots of the Japanese airport.

At two o'clock in the morning, the special forces members began to enter the attack site.

The Japanese airport in Peking had never been attacked, and the Japanese army's alert was very relaxed. The sentries were drowsy as they listened to the chirping of summer insects in the fields.

A sentry found that there seemed to be someone shaking on the grass outside the airport. He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, but saw nothing. However, he cheered up and observed carefully. Finally, he saw the shaking of the shadow again and quickly sounded the alarm. A harsh chirping suddenly sounded at the airport.

At this moment, gunfire sounded, and a bullet flew over and shot him from the top of the guardhouse. Immediately afterwards, gunfire and explosions rang everywhere.

The guard posts and machine gun positions around the airport were both attacked at the same time. The simple guardhouses and machine gun positions of the Japanese army could not withstand the attack of a rocket, and the periphery was quickly lost.

Seeing the enemy unable to react for a moment, the special forces team members holding rocket launchers quickly approached the runway about 100 meters and drove the rocket towards the Japanese plane parked on the runway.

It was so cool to shoot a plane with a rocket. Once the rocket was shot, the Japanese plane turned into a big fireball.

The rockets were fired very quickly, and they could fire several shots within one minute. In less than two minutes, all the Japanese planes parked on the runway were beaten into scrap iron.

The Japanese patrol team was killed immediately, and Wang Zhankui and others quickly rushed to the building complex at the airport.

The Japanese guards rushed out of the barracks. As soon as they arrived at the gate, they were shot violently by several light machine guns. The Japanese army suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat.

Wang Zhankui and others had approached the enemy's barracks, and a grenade was slaughtered into the barracks, which made the Japanese army fly everywhere.

Wang Zhankui left a small number of guerrillas and continued to block the Japanese guards in the barracks, and then led the others to attack the ammunition depot, the oil depot and the towers of the Japanese airport.

In the past, it was time-consuming and labor-intensive to attack targets like the Japanese army. It was difficult to install explosives. Now with the bazooka, it is easy to hit these targets.

The special forces members did not need to run to these targets, and a rocket shot over. The Japanese tower was destroyed and the ammunition and oil depots began to catch fire and explode.

The ammunition depot exploded violently, destroying the oil depot next to it. A large number of gasoline barrels were thrown into the sky, and a violent explosion occurred in the air. The burning flames scattered to the ground like heavy rain. The Japanese hangar quickly turned into a sea of ​​fire, and none of the planes parked inside were spared.

At this moment, the Japanese army's airport was like hell on earth, and the scene was very tragic.

Wang Zhankui and others saw the explosion of the ammunition depot and oil depot, and immediately led their team to evacuate the airport.

Gao Jiu, who was in Cang County, was very happy to receive a telegram from Wang Zhankui. He called Wang Zhankui back and praised him and his special forces. At the same time, he asked them to continue their efforts and prepare to intercept the Japanese heavy artillery troops coming out of Peking.

It was dawn, and a large number of Japanese troops arrived at the airport. The airport was in a mess. Hundreds of aircraft from the Japanese First Air Force were basically destroyed. The complex was either blown up or burned in the fire.

In addition to these losses, more than 80 Japanese pilots, 110 ground crew members and more than 200 Japanese guards were also killed in the attack.

After this blow, the Beiping Airport could no longer carry out the bombing mission against Cang County in a short period of time. The commander of the Japanese First Air Force was very angry and decided to transfer planes from other airports to retaliate against Gao Jiu's Taohuashan guerrillas.

The chief of staff of the aviation team was relatively calm. He quietly said to the commander: "Commander, our third air team has never been attacked before. This time it was because of their preparation to bomb the Gaojiu bandit gang.

We just received the order to perform the bombing mission, and an attack occurred. This shows that someone informed Gao Jiu and the others that they knew in advance that we were about to go to Cang County to carry out the bombing mission before launching an attack on us.

Gao Jiu is famous, and we don’t know him well enough. I suggest you call Commander Yokota Makio, the third aviation team in Shandong, to find out the situation.”

The commander of the Japanese First Air Force and the commander of the Third Air Force, Makio Yokoda, are both classmates at the Japanese Osaka Aviation School. They have a close relationship. He used to hear that Makio Yokoda's third air force was attacked at the airport in Jinan, and the Third Air Force also suffered heavy losses when carrying out the bombing mission on Taohua Mountain.

At that time, he felt very sympathetic to Makio Yokota's experience. The two of them had chatted about Gao Jiu on the phone. However, some things that Makio Yokota was inconvenient to say were not convenient, so they did not talk too much.

The commander of the First Air Force remembered these things and called Makio Yokota.

Makio Yokota and the commander of the First Air Force are very close. The phone number between Makio Yokota and him needs to be transferred through several switchboards. Their conversation is easily eavesdropped, and some things are inconvenient to explain clearly on the phone.

So he sent a telegram to the commander of the First Air Force. These telegrams did not allow confidential departments to translate, but asked the commander of the First Air Force to translate with a password book. In the telegram, Hengtian Mufu told the commander of the First Air Force about his situation and his past experience in dealing with Gao Jiu, and suggested that he should not provoke Gao Jiu, otherwise, Gao Jiu would not be as simple as blowing up the airport when he was targeted by Gao Jiu. Once Gao Jiu was targeted, the commander of the First Air Force would have no way to die.

After discussing with the Chief of Staff, the commander of the First Air Force decided to do whatever he wanted. They used the excuse that the First Air Force suffered heavy losses and the morale of the troops was greatly affected and could no longer continue to carry out the bombing mission. In this way, the threat from the Japanese Air Force was lifted.

The commander of the 132nd Japanese Division had never dealt with Gao Jiu directly in the past. Now he surrounded Gao Jiu and was confident and ready to make achievements.

After breakfast that day, he organized the Japanese army to launch an attack on the county town. He contacted the North China Expeditionary Force and asked when the bombers of the First Air Force would arrive. He was preparing to wait until the Air Force bombed before starting an attack on the county town.

The North China Expeditionary Force Command told the division commander of the 132nd Division that the Air Force would carry out other combat missions and no longer bomb Cangxian. It also told them that the bandits under Gao Jiu were at best only a few hundred people, and it was easy for the 132nd Division to destroy them and let them launch an attack on their own.

The commander of the 132nd Division felt a little confused and did not understand why such a big change happened that night. Then he asked if the troops of the Second Artillery Brigade had set out? As a result, the reply he received was that the Second Artillery Brigade would also carry out other combat missions and would no longer come to Cang County.

It turned out that the Japanese Second Artillery Brigade last time went to Taohua Mountain, but suffered serious losses. This time they heard that they were going to Cangxian to fight Gaojiu, and they felt that Gaojiu would never let them arrive in Cangxian smoothly, just like last time. The distance from Peiping to Cangxian is not close, and they may be attacked by Taohuashan guerrillas at any time on the road.

They didn't want to suffer heavy losses like last time, so they also made various excuses to refuse to carry out the mission to Cang County.

Lieutenant General Sakai, the deputy chief of staff of the North China Expeditionary Army, had dealt with Gao Jiu, and he knew Gao Jiu's power well. Now that the attack at the Beijing Airport was attacked, it was already obvious that Gao Jiu was angry. He didn't want Gao Jiu to be anxious and come to Peking to make a big flip. So he deliberately concealed the attack at the Beijing Airport and fooled the division commander of the 132nd Division, allowing him to deal with Gao Jiu alone.

The commander of the 132nd Division was not a fool. He immediately sent someone to follow the 132nd Division to contact the remaining office of the 132nd Division. The news was that the First Air Force was attacked and the planes at the Beiping Airport were completely lost.

After finding out the situation, the division commander was frowning. After discussing with the Chief of Staff and other confidants, he felt that he was now in a difficult position. They believed that although Gao Jiu's Taohua Mountain guerrillas were powerful, they were very small after all, and they were surrounded. Now there are nearly 20,000 Japanese and puppet troops around the county town, and it is entirely possible to eliminate Gao Jiu in the county town of Cangxian.

After making up his mind, the division commander issued an attack order.

At 10 a.m. that day, the Japanese army began to shell the county town of Cangxian.

Before the Japanese encirclement, after mobilization, the people in Cang County had already evacuated in advance. The defending troops used the solid buildings inside as cover, and the Japanese bombardment did not cause much casualties.

Gao Jiu analyzed the Japanese offensive tactics and left only a small number of surveillance watches on the city wall. When the Japanese army was bombarded, everyone else hid on the back of the solid city wall. Although the Japanese artillery fire destroyed many buildings, the anti-Japanese army did not suffer any major losses.

The Japanese army also had great combat experience. In addition to bombarding the county town, they also concentrated a considerable number of artillery to bombard the county town's walls. In the north and south directions, they collapsed the city walls about 40 meters wide.

After the shelling stopped, the first Japanese attack began.

The 132nd Division was eager to eliminate Gao Jiu, but they could not trust the puppet troops, so they directly joined the main force of the Japanese army to launch an attack.

In order to disperse the enemy's troops defending the city, the Japanese army not only concentrated their main force to attack the two broken walls, but also launched attacks on all sides at the same time.

In other areas, the Japanese soldiers carried the ladder and rushed towards the city wall.

The first group of people to climb to the city wall to defend were from the Taohuashan Special Forces, and the others were still on standby on the back of the city wall.

Gao Jiu did this to prevent the Japanese army from acting like gangsters. The Japanese army's offensive rule was that after bombardment, the infantry launched an attack. Sometimes the Japanese army would also play tricks. After bombardment, the troops pretended to launch an attack. After the enemy's defenders entered the position, they launched another bombardment, which could effectively eliminate the enemy.

Gao Jiu didn't know whether the Japanese in front of him were so smart, but he couldn't take risks, so he sent special forces to guard the city wall first.

The special forces team members are not large, and there is only one person at a very large distance between the city walls. Even if the enemy launches bombardment, it will not cause too much damage.

Gao Jiu still overestimated these Japanese devils. They were really not so mean. They followed the infantry offensive tactics in a regular manner, and a large number of devil soldiers rushed towards the county town.

The Japanese soldiers usually run forward quickly. Only when they reach a distance of 100 meters from the enemy can they slow down the attack speed and establish an offensive starting position. Then they first send some people to rush to a distance of about 50 meters from the enemy, and start crawling to within 30 meters, throwing grenades and attacking forward.

The members of the Taohuashan Guerrillas opened fire at a distance of more than 200 meters. Their first round targets were important targets such as commanders, machine gunners, and mortars in the Japanese army.

When the Japanese army advanced 150 meters away from the city wall, important targets such as the Japanese commanders who were mixed in front of the team were basically wiped out.

The Japanese really had never fought such a battle, and they were in a mess for a while. The Japanese commanders were very brave and dedicated. The ones in front were completely wiped out, and the ones behind rushed up and continued to command the troops to assault forward.

As a result, these commanders were shot dead by the guerrillas in Taohua Mountain. The Japanese soldiers lost their command and didn't know what to do for a while.

The people of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas didn't care about that. Without the key targets, they attacked ordinary Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese soldiers kept falling down, and eventually they felt fear. Without the surveillance of the Japanese commander, everyone rushed back.

The commander of the 132nd Division felt great pressure when he saw this situation. He found that he had underestimated the combat capabilities of the Taohuashan guerrillas. He really didn't know how to continue the next battle.

The Chief of Staff gave him an opinion, and he suggested mobilizing the puppet troops to block bullets in front, and the Japanese army followed the puppet troops and attacked forward.
