Devil's Army

Nearly a hundred Japanese fighter planes surrounded the enemy, making it impossible for the First Army's bombers to bomb the Japanese tanks as easily as before, and they had to fly away from the combat area.

The Japanese tanks on the ground also stopped retreating and encircled the position of the Third Battalion.

Japanese bombers also began to drop bombs on the tanks of the third battalion.

When Captain Xu heard the telegram for help from Captain Shi, he immediately ordered the Xinjing Air Force and Jinzhou Air Force to take off and provide reinforcements.

Due to the distance, the reinforcements from the air force will take at least an hour to arrive.

In order to reduce losses, Tank Regiment Commander Wu ordered the third battalion commander to retreat first.

The commander of the third battalion then ordered the tanks to retreat into the mountains and woods first.

The crisscrossing gullies and dense woods blocked the sight of Japanese pilots and effectively concealed the whereabouts of the tanks.

The hilly terrain effectively stopped the large-scale advance of Japanese tanks.

The destroyed tanks of the Third Battalion blocked the path into the hilly area.

The Japanese tanks had to push away the wreckage of the third battalion's tanks before subsequent tanks could enter the hilly area and pursue the tanks of the devil's troops.

Some Japanese tanks raised their heads and risked climbing over a small hill with a not very steep slope.

As they climbed up the hill with their heads held high, they were bombarded by tanks from the Devil's forces hidden below.

Two Japanese tanks that climbed up the hill were knocked over one after another and rolled down the hillside.

The tanks of the First Army guarded all the intersections leading into the hilly area, waiting for their reinforcements to arrive.

Although the Japanese tanks were numerous, they had no way to spread out at the narrow intersection. They had no choice but to form columns and fight a war of attrition with the tanks of the Devil Army from the small roads.

However, the tanks of the First Army were gradually pushed back by the Japanese tanks, leaving them with little room for maneuver.

A team of Japanese tanks rumbled across the path, chasing the retreating tanks of the Devil Force.

The rumbling sound of the Japanese tank convoy woke up a tank soldier in a First Army tank that was lying on the side of the road with its tracks blown off.

The commander was hit by several bullets and died.

The gunner pushed and woke up the observer next to him, and the two of them easily aimed at the first Japanese tank that was pursuing them.

"Boom!" An explosion sounded, and the track of the first tank that the Japanese army was chasing was broken, and Ge Ran stopped moving forward.

The tanks behind the Japanese army also noticed the grounded tank of the First Army and immediately turned their turrets around.

The gunners of the First Army immediately seized the opportunity to fire another shot, blowing away the turret of the second Japanese tank.

At this time, the following Japanese tanks also opened fire.

The close-range artillery fire blew the turret of the first army's tank, which was lying on the ground, directly into the air and made it spin.

The back armor of the First Army's tank was also penetrated by the Japanese armor-piercing bullets, causing a violent explosion of the ammunition in the tank.

Iron fragments from the army's crippled tanks flew everywhere like snowflakes.

The Japanese army's subsequent tanks pushed the wreckage of the two destroyed tanks to the side of the road, and then continued to pursue the tanks of the Devil Forces.

In the air, the air force of Shangdu Airport led the Japanese fighter planes in circles, while looking for opportunities to attack the Japanese fighter planes and bombers.

Just as the Shangdu County Air Force was busy dealing with the Japanese fighter planes and the tank soldiers of the Third Battalion were being chased back step by step by the Japanese tanks and planes, the Japanese Air Force suddenly retreated without any warning.

The Japanese tank group also stopped pursuing and began to show signs of retreat.
