Chapter 1529 Assault on Chifeng
However, the independent regiment did not delay the fighter plane for more than two hours, because even if he arrived in Duolun County in advance, he was still waiting there...

Three mechanized regiments rushed to Duolun County and surrounded it from three sides.

There is no standard east or west orientation on these three sides, but three groups form a triangle to surround Duolun County in the middle.

The infantry can't do this, because the infantry is slow and has relatively poor offense and defense. If they surround the target in a triangle, they are likely to be attacked by the enemy... If one side is attacked by the enemy, the other two sides are likely to be restrained. The distance is far too late for reinforcements.

It is no problem for the mechanized troops to do this. They are maneuvering outside the city to encircle them. Once any side is attacked by the enemy outside the city, they will not go up like infantry. Instead, they will use their mobility to retreat first so that the enemy cannot attack them. At the same time, troops from the other two sides will come to reinforce and surround and destroy the enemies leaving the city.

The devils really have nothing to do with this kind of siege, although the devils have more troops than the Eighth Route Army... The devils have a division of more than 1 people in Duolun County, while the Eighth Route Army only has three regiments of about 7000 people.

As for the devil's airport in Duolun County, it has been bombed several times by the "La 5" of the Eighth Route Army and is paralyzed.

This is not to say that the devil's fighter planes are inferior to "La 5" in air combat capabilities. For example, the air combat capabilities of "Feiyan" are comparable to "La 5".

The problem is that the speed of "La 5" far exceeds that of the devils "Feiyan" and "Zero Zhan".

On the other hand, Wang Xuexin also invested in the "mosquito" bomber, which is known as the fastest bomber, in this direction, and also installed a new type of rocket pod for the "mosquito" bomber.

At this time, the Eighth Route Army had already produced fifty "mosquitos".

The high speed and the use of rocket pod bombing made the bombing of the Eighth Route Army in a very safe state: fast speed meant that the devil's fighter jets could not catch up, and the rocket pod meant that it could bomb without flying over the target, so Can avoid being shot down by enemy anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.

So they can safely bomb the devil's airport, but the devil has advanced fighter jets, but there is nothing they can do about it.

After several rounds of bombing at Devils Airport, fighter planes could only temporarily leave Duolun County... Fighter planes are extremely dependent on the airport. If the airport is always bombed and cannot be used, the fighter planes will never be able to take off. It may also be blown up and captured by the enemy, so flying away is the best choice.

The three mechanized regiments were on the outskirts of the city and did not attack. In the eyes of the devils, they were waiting for the main force to arrive.

For example, Naozaburo Okabe thought so. He anxiously ordered the staff: "Immediately order the 26th Division to reinforce Duolun County!"

The 26th Division is the army of the devils stationed in Chifeng, which is exactly what the Eighth Route Army wants, to transfer the devils from Chifeng.

Can the devil not reinforce?
If Duolun County falls into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, it can become the advance base for the Eighth Route Army to attack Chifeng.

But once the devils reinforce Duolun County, the devils in Chifeng will only have a regiment of more than 3000 people left.

On the surface, the Eighth Route Army continued to surround Duolun County calmly, and even when the follow-up main forces arrived, they immediately threw themselves into the battle to attack Duolun County.

On the other side, the tank unit including 21 "Shermans" and 44 T[-]s kept approaching Chifeng at night.

These twenty T44s are indeed a headache. For every 44 kilometers traveled, four or five vehicles will definitely have problems. At most, seven vehicles will fail to move. This makes the tank troops have to wait for an extra day... …If the seven failures continue on the road, the T[-] that finally arrived in Chifeng may not be four or five but one or two.

One or two is obviously too few, and even if they have super defense and firepower, they may not be able to handle it.

But in the end, it was a bit of luck, and there were still six cars that could work normally before arriving at Chifeng.

The "Sherman" tanks formed a sharp contrast with the T44 along the way. Only two of the 21 tanks went through the journey and failed.

Tank crews sometimes want to simply replace the T44 gun with the "Sherman".

While the tank soldiers were advancing, the Eighth Route Army secretly opened up a temporary airport more than 100 kilometers away from Chifeng.

This airport is developed on Lunuerhu Mountain.

The pioneering work was done by the mountain troops that Wang Xuexin had arranged to infiltrate into this area.

It is not difficult to open up, you just need to find a relatively flat and open area in the mountainous area, then cut down the trees that need to be cut down, remove the stones that need to be moved, and then level the ground... "Pull 5" has no requirements for the airport. high.

The difficulty lies in the fuel and ammunition needed by the fighter.

However, these can also be easily solved with helicopter transportation.

The whole process took only three days, and the Eighth Route Army laid a nail in the vicinity of Chifeng without the devil's knowledge.

After everything was ready, suddenly one night the three mechanized regiments of the Eighth Route Army disappeared.

Originally, the devil would never have noticed that the three mechanized regiments of the Eighth Route Army had left, because at this time the main force of the Eighth Route Army was bombing Duolun County.

But because of a small accident, the devil discovered this.

The two regiments of the 26th Division, which the devil rushed to Duolun County for reinforcement, happened to arrive nearby. The commander of the division, Xiao Gu Yuji, sent two small troops to launch a trial attack on the Eighth Route Army, hoping to find out the deployment of the Eighth Route Army's troops... Originally they Thinking that the Eighth Route Army would send mechanized troops to counterattack, they were even ready to counterattack with artillery fire, but surprisingly nothing happened.

"What's going on?" Otani Yuki asked Yumiyo Obata, the commander of the 59th Division who was trapped in Duolun County, in a telegram: "Didn't you say that the Eighth Route Army has three mechanized regiments? No car in sight!"

"Impossible!" Yumiyo Obata replied, "They were still outside the city before dark, and I could see them clearly!"

Kotani Yuki was silent, he had no reason to doubt Yumiyo Obata's words, and there was no need for Yumiyo Obata to lie to him.

So... the Eighth Route Army mechanized regiment shifted its target, and the three mechanized regiments moved at the same time.

What will be the goal?

Xiaogu Yuji searched on the map, but what surprised him was that there was nothing nearby worthy of the Eighth Route Army.

Finally, when he turned his gaze to Chifeng, he couldn't help being taken aback.

"It can't be Chifeng, right?" Xiaogu Youji was startled, and looked closely at the map, then his eyes widened.

For five hundred kilometers, it may take several days for infantry to march, but it may only take one or two days or even faster for half-track vehicles.

He took out his pocket watch and looked at it. It has been more than three hours since dark, which means that the mechanized troops of the Eighth Route Army may have set off for several hours.

It is definitely impossible to catch up, even if it is useless, the 26th Division only has cars, and catching up is courting death.

He hastened to order the communications soldier: "Send the command to generate electricity immediately, the Eighth Route Army plans to raid Chifeng!"
