Devil's Army

Commander Suzuki added aviation observation posts on the high mountains in the direction of Nenjiang Airport and Jiamusi Airport, which made it very difficult for the First Army Air Force to launch a surprise attack on these two airports.

They especially strengthened the air defense protection of Nenjiang Airport.

After several renovations, Nenjiang Airport became the largest and most comprehensive airport in Asia at the time. It is over 1500 kilometers away from Xinjing Airport.

It would be difficult for the Xinjing Air Force to launch a surprise attack on him. Therefore, Deputy Commander Xu had been urging the construction and expansion of Majiagou Airport.

Deputy Commander Xu knew that if the expansion of Majiagou Airport was completed as soon as possible, their air force would move nearly three or four hundred kilometers to the north.

The most important thing is that the distance between Harbin Majiagou Airport and Nenjiang Airport has been greatly shortened, and the distance between the two is less than 1000 kilometers.

The commissioning of Majiagou Airport will become the key to the surprise attack on Nenjiang Airport.

He stayed at the construction site day and night, constantly coordinating resources from all parties.

The 4th Brigade also deployed two regiments of soldiers to speed up the progress.

However, the enemy seemed to have noticed our intentions and secretly sent a small force to sabotage the airport construction.

Since Harbin had just been recovered at that time, there were still many defensive loopholes in various places.

The Japanese troops stationed in Harbin, relying on their familiarity with Harbin, arranged a small team of Japanese soldiers to sneak into Harbin and successfully obtained ammunition supplies from a hidden ammunition depot.

The Fourth Brigade had a very strict defense of the Majiagou Airport. Some Japanese soldiers had been stationed in the Northeast for many years and could speak some Chinese with a Northeastern accent. They sneaked into the Majiagou Airport during the day in the name of laborers to survey the terrain and defense of the Majiagou Airport.

In the evening, under the pretext of returning home, they met up with the Japanese troops outside Majiagou Airport to discuss the battle plan.

With the increasing number of soldiers participating in the construction and expansion of Majiagou Airport, the completion date of Majiagou Airport is getting closer and closer.

The lieutenant also felt that he could not delay any longer and decided to take action at night.

That night, one of the "workers" who usually "went home" did not go back, and stayed at Majiagou Airport to spend the night with those workers who did not go home.

At one o'clock in the morning, a troop, led by two "workers", bypassed the sentries of the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade and sneaked into the construction site, attempting to blow up the newly built runway facilities.

They didn't know that the unusual behavior of these Japanese soldiers disguised as workers had already aroused the vigilance of the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade.

The reason why Wang Zhuangfei did not take action was that he wanted to play the long game and catch a big fish.

On that day, when the Japanese troops arrived at the designated location and were about to start the blasting, four searchlights suddenly lit up around them, blinding the Japanese soldiers.

The lieutenant quickly realized that he had been ambushed and immediately fought back on the spot, and a fierce battle ensued between the two sides.

After a fight, the lieutenant saw soldiers falling around him one after another, and in desperation, he detonated the explosives that had not been fully placed, destroying an already built runway.

After half an hour of fierce fighting, the Japanese troops that had lurked in were all wiped out, but the runway still suffered some damage.

Deputy Captain Xu looked at the damaged runway and quickly organized people to repair it.

The Japanese army exchanged the lives of 28 suicide squad members for the result of bombing an airport runway.

The runway was repaired the next day.

The next day, the workers soon learned that the Japanese army had attacked Majiagou Airport the previous night, and they worked even harder to expand Majiagou Airport.
