Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Chapter 419 Elite, this is definitely the elite

Hearing this, Yu Hua said: "Let's go and have a look. What is going on?"

Liu Changqing and others followed Yu Hua and walked out of the headquarters; when the soldiers on guard saw the arrival of Yu Hua and others, they all made way out.

At this time, Yu Hua saw three or five men wearing coarse cloth, and they were no longer making a fuss.

A tall man at the head shouted to Yu Hua: "Sir, we have something important to report."

After Yu Hua gave the guard a look, he let the tall man in.

"Sir, my name is Li Dazhuang!" Arriving in front of Yu Hua, Li Dazhuang followed the example of the troops he encountered before and saluted Yu Hua.

It's just that Li Dazhuang didn't learn much. Yu Hua smiled slightly and said, "You can tell me what important matters you have now. I'm still busy fighting the Japanese."

"Sir, we are here just to ask you to help us fight the Japanese."

"Oh!" Yu Hua looked at Li Dazhuang: "Tell me, what's going on? Where is this Japs?"

Li Dazhuang said: "Sir, we didn't expect the Japs to come so quickly. Many young and middle-aged people in our village were captured by the Japs."

"We just escaped from the Japanese airport! Then we met our troops. I am a rough guy, but I also understand that we also have a responsibility to fight the Japanese."

"The construction of this kid's airfield will be very detrimental to our troops' operations. I want to ask the commander to go to the airfield and rescue the men in our village."

"I know that once this airport is built, all the young people in our village will be killed by the little devils."

Hearing this, Yu Hua's eyes widened: "How is the Japanese military's airport being repaired now?"

"The Japs' airport is being built while planes are taking off and landing at the same time. There are about five or six planes inside the airport."

"The airport is located next to Feiluo Valley!"

"Map!" Yu Hua shouted, and Liu Changqing quickly brought the map up, and then his eyes were on the Japanese military airport on the map.

After finding it, Yu Hua asked his staff to work on the map immediately to measure the distance.

"Dayong!" Yu Hua shouted: "Get some food for these fellow villagers."

Wei Dayong nodded, and Yu Hua chatted with Li Dazhuang for a few more words, trying to get more information.

"Sir!" the staff officer shouted: "This place is about ten kilometers away from us."

It is a distance of ten kilometers. If you travel lightly, you can reach it by marching in an hour.

Yu Hua decided to attack this airport. In any case, the existence of the airport posed a great threat to the Sichuan army.

"Dazhuang!" Yu Hua looked at Li Dazhuang: "Are the guards at the airport strict? Are there many troops?"

"Not many!" Li Dazhuang shook his head: "I took a few fellow villagers and ran away from the airport. There are only about two hundred Japanese troops at the airport."

"The airport is large and the number of Japanese troops is too small. We also took advantage of the lax defense of the Japanese troops to escape. While we were escaping, five or six of our fellow villagers fell to the gunfire of the Japanese."

Hearing this, the airport is very close to his location, and there are not many guards. The Chu Ming regiment in Anqing is having a hard time fighting now.

Shiro Inaba and Shigeichi Namada had two Japanese troops of 3 men. Pulling in a brigade of their own was just a tactic to add fuel to the fire. This was a loss-making business, and Yu Hua would not do it.

Liu Changqing looked at Yu Hua: "Lao Yu!"

"Let's attack the airport. This will also reduce the pressure on the Chu Ming Regiment. This airport is the bridgehead for the Japanese army to attack Wuhan."

"Let's pull a brigade over, and the Japs will definitely send reinforcements back to defend and rescue the airport!"

Yu Hua nodded, "Let's move forward lightly and drive to the airport for me to check out the situation."

"Changqing, you will lead the team personally this time." Yu Hua patted Liu Changqing on the shoulder.

"Lao Yu, just leave it to me. I will definitely handle things beautifully for you."

"Dazhuang!" Yu Hua came to Li Dazhuang: "You are familiar with the road to the airport. Could you please be our guide?"

Li Dazhuang wiped the rice grains from the corner of his mouth, "No problem, I'm very familiar with this area."

"As long as I can fight the Japanese, it doesn't matter if I run a few more times."

After everything was ready, a group, led by Liu Changqing, began to attack the airport.

at this time!
In a small village, Xu Yuanquan's headquarters is set up here.

Since his troops were defeated by the Japanese Sixth Division, they have been defeated very quickly. Xu Yuanquan also relied on his own guards to escape from the melee.

Now he was gradually getting in touch with his troops. There was no good news. The troops retreated very quickly. Almost all the troops collapsed within half a day of fighting.

"Alas..." Xu Yuanquan sighed.

The 26th Army fought so poorly, which made Xu Yuanquan's old face hurt.

You must know that Bai Zhuge of the Fifth War Zone gave the 26th Group Army the task of holding on to the area from Huoshan, Lu'an to Anqing. Now that his troops have lost so many positions, he may be punished.

After Xu Yuanquan looked at the map, he felt that he had to make a comeback in the retreat and show the Fifth War Zone and the Hankou Jinling Headquarters that although he was defeated, he was still organizing troops to counterattack.

If he is held accountable at that time, he will have a reason.To avoid ending up like Han Fuqu, Long Mu and Han Huangpu were also killed in the first phase of the Lanfeng battle.

Xu Yuanquan is still very scared in his heart. The current Principal Chang is not only ruthless to the local army, but also ruthless to his direct Huangpu generals.

Looking left and right, Xu Yuanquan chose the airport that was captured by the Japanese army. He was going to send a reinforcement group to capture the airport.

This airport was the bridgehead for the Japanese invasion of Wuhan and must be taken back, otherwise the threat to the Chinese defenders would be too great.

"Adjutant Yang!" Xu Yuanquan shouted!
"Here!" Adjutant Yang came to Xu Yuanquan: "Commander-in-Chief, your orders."

"The airport in Feiluo Valley must be captured by me, and Captain Zhang can take his people there."

"Yes!"

"Come back and tell Captain Zhang that this is a fatal order. If we can't take the airport, I will shoot him. Let him fight hard. I will gather the troops and ammunition for him."

Adjutant Yang nodded and left!

After Zhang Yungang of the 26th Group Army received Xu Yuanquan's order, he had no choice but to gather his troops and head for the airport in Feiluogu.

In this way, when the two teams were marching in the mountains, the forward troops collided.

At first, both sides thought the other side was the Japanese army. However, when the leading soldiers from both sides came into contact, they discovered that they were Chinese.

After their respective reports, Zhang Yungang and Liu Changqing met.

"Brother! I am Zhang Yungang, commander of the 26rd Regiment of the 103th Group Army."

"The Second Route Army of the Sichuan Army, Liu Changqing, deputy commander of the Independent Brigade of the Sichuan-Kanglan Appeasement Office!"

Zhang Yungang felt much better when he heard that the other party was the Sichuan Army, and it was also an independent brigade.

The Sichuan Army has achieved impressive results in Songhu, Taihu, Niangziguan and Xuzhou. In particular, the Independent Brigade is the best among the Sichuan Army.

"Brother!" Liu Changqing looked at Zhang Yungang: "Where are you going?" Zhang Yungang sighed, "Brother, our 26th Group Army withdrew from Xuzhou and had just rested for less than ten days. This little devil suddenly appeared. , within half a day, our entire army group's defense line collapsed."

"Now I have received a fatal order from the Army Group Headquarters, which is to seize our lost positions!"

"Brother, where are you going with this urgent march?"

"Fight the Japanese! Where else can we go? Our Sichuan Army came all the way out of Sichuan just to fight the Japanese."

Liu Changqing patted Zhang Yungang on the shoulder, "Brother, your No. 20 Sixth Army is still somewhat bloody, and you can still counterattack the Japanese army."

Zhang Yungang smiled bitterly. The entire group army, including his regiment, had received the order to counterattack, and the remaining troops were already preparing to retreat.

What kind of blood is this!It was clear that he had been taken out by the commander for thunder.

Liu Changqing saw Zhang Yungang's wry smile, "Why, brother, you look like you have something to hide?"

"Brother!" Zhang Yungang looked at Liu Changqing: "I want to ask you for a favor. I see that your team is quite large. Can you allocate some troops to help me attack the Japanese airport?"

"Airport?!"

"Yes... the Japanese airport is Feiluogu's airport. The order our regiment received is to seize Feiluogu's airport."

Liu Changqing sighed in his heart: What a guy, I actually encountered people from the 26th Group Army also attacking the airport.

"To be honest! We are also going to the airport this time."

Zhang Yungang's eyes widened, and the Sichuan army also rushed to the airport, just like him.

When the Sichuan army attacked the airport, its own troops also attacked the airport. In this way, if the Japanese army counterattacked, the troops would have sufficient strength and be able to deal with it calmly.

"Brother... don't say anything! Let's rush to the airport now." Zhang Yungang looked at Liu Changqing eagerly.

Liu Changqing and Zhang Yungang gathered their teams and headed for Feiluogu Airport.

As the two of them were on the road, Liu Changqing asked: "Brother, your troops have defended Feiluogu Airport before, so they should be quite familiar with the layout of the airport, right?"

"Of course... I'm very familiar with this airport. When we get there, we don't actually need to do much reconnaissance. I have a general understanding of the Japanese army's deployment."

After the troops arrived at the airport, Zhang Yungang really didn't brag.

After Liu Changqing's observation, the defense of the Japanese airport was indeed as Zhang Yungang said, generally not bad.

After watching the deployment of the Japanese army, Liu Changqing frowned slightly: "At this airport, the strength of the Japs has obviously increased a lot. There are almost 500 people now."

"In addition to the 3000 puppet troops, the strength of the airport is more than 4000!"

At this time, Li Dazhuang also spoke softly: "Sir Liu, I have only been away for a few days. I didn't expect that the airport has changed so much. The barbed wire fence and towers have also increased a lot."

"The number of planes has also increased. It seems that the little devil has deployed at least twenty planes here."

"Da Zhuang, it is very likely that after you escaped, the Japanese army increased their defense of the airport. After all, such a large airport was guarded by only about two hundred people before, so it is indeed easy for problems to arise."

Although the airport has increased its manpower, Liu Changqing is still confident that he can take down the airport.

Zhang Yungang saw how big the Japanese army was, plus the puppet troops, and he was quite scared. If the Sichuan army had not come, his reinforced regiment would really be lost at the airport.

"Brigadier Liu, when are we going to the airport?"

Now Zhang Yungang has decided that his troops will obey the command of the Sichuan Army.

Because the Independent Brigade is attacking the airport this time, it has more than 1 people, a proper establishment of Type A adjusters.

"No rush!" Liu Changqing waved his hand: "It's definitely not possible today. We have to wait until evening."

Now in broad daylight, the risk of traveling to the airport is too high, so it is most convenient to do it at night.

Zhang Yungang nodded: "Brigadier Liu, the defense of this airport is really tight. Does your independent brigade have large-caliber artillery?"

"Otherwise, if we attack the airport at night, we will have to organize death squads to blast the Japanese strongholds."

"Don't worry, there are large-caliber artillery. Our independent brigade's large troops are behind. They hide in the mountains and forests during the day, and cars drag the artillery. Now that the Japanese army has control of the air, it will not be easy for our independent brigade to save some belongings."

Seeing Liu Changqing say this, Zhang Yungang felt that the Sichuan Army was too good!
If it were his troops who attacked the airport without the artillery, they would have to spend their lives to fill the gap.

"Captain Zhang, is there any place to hide around here? Let's hide the team. It's broad daylight. If the Japanese reconnaissance plane discovers us, we'll be in trouble."

After figuring out the situation at the airport, Liu Changqing planned to hide his troops and wait for nightfall.

"Have!"

With that said, Zhang Yungang asked his guards to take out the map and place it in front of Liu Changqing.

"There is a canyon with a thin line of sky here. It is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. It is very suitable for hiding soldiers. Our team will hide here to ensure that the Japanese reconnaissance planes cannot find it."

"And here, Luo Feng Mountain, this mountain is also very suitable for hiding. There are many caves in the mountain."

"Okay! In that case, let's split up and hide the troops."

Liu Changqing led a group to Yixiantian Canyon, and Zhang Yungang led his team to Luofeng Mountain.

Yixiantian Canyon and Luofeng Mountain are very close to each other, only 10 minutes away.

The two armies waited until the sun went down and the Japanese planes stopped circling in the sky, then they slipped out of their hiding places and headed towards the airport in Feiluo Valley.

After meeting at the predetermined location, Zhang Yungang came to Liu Changqing.

"Brigadier Liu, when will the follow-up troops of your Sichuan Army arrive?"

"Commander Zhang, don't worry, it's just getting dark now. Our Sichuan army has a lot of baggage and artillery. They are moving slowly. It will take at least two hours to meet us."

"Tonight, we must fight at this airport!"

Just like this, in the night, the two armies were lying in ambush at predetermined locations, waiting for orders.

At this time, Yu Hua led a large force to the Yixiantian Canyon. The terrain of the canyon was not bad and could park cars, mules and horses.

it's here!
Zhang Yungang saw the remaining soldiers of the Independent Brigade. He saw the Sichuan Army machine gunners shouldering the anti-minor 26 general-purpose machine gun, the Maxim heavy machine gun, the M2 heavy machine gun, and the 20mm machine gun. These weapons all frightened him. Jump.

The number of grenades, mortars, Type 105 infantry guns, etc. is not small, not to mention the [-]mm howitzers towed by cars.

Four 105mm howitzers, which are the heavy firepower of the independent brigade.

When he saw these four giant artillery pieces, Zhang Yungang was so surprised that he was almost speechless!

This damn Sichuan Army Independent Brigade is richer than Principal Chang’s Central Army Class A Adjusted German Arms Division!
Every soldier also has a brand new Mauser 98K rifle, coupled with the Min-26 submachine gun, this damn thing can beat any local army.

Elite!

This is definitely the elite of the Sichuan Army! !
