Devil's Army

Most of the Japanese artillery in Huaibei were destroyed in the bombing by the artillery of the Fourth Regiment and the air force of the First Army.

The infantry was also forced to hide everywhere by the bombers of the First Army.

At this time, the first battalion temporarily defended Wangliuzi Village and Shiweiwei.

In the evening, the Third Regiment rushed into the west gate of Suxian County through the city wall that had collapsed due to bombing. However, the Japanese retreated to the streets and alleys and continued to resist.

The Third Regiment had to engage in brutal street fighting with the Japanese army.

There were constant sounds of gunfire and explosions in Su County throughout the night.

The people who did not evacuate hid in their homes, begging that the war would not affect their homes.

On the morning of the third day, when the brigade commander had asked them to capture Su County, the soldiers of the Third Regiment increased their offensive efforts.

Soon, the roar of an airplane was heard in the sky.

The Japanese soldiers looked up and immediately dodged in all directions.

The number of fighter planes dispatched by the First Army Air Force this time was more than that of the previous two days, but the Japanese troops in Suxian were hiding in the streets and houses, and there was no way to bomb them.

While the Japanese were busy dodging, a bomber formation deviated from the fighter formation and came to an open area.

After a while, parachute flowers fluttered down from the belly of the bomber.

After a long time, the Japanese army in Suxian finally discovered the paratroopers of the First Army landing and immediately reported to the commander.

The Japanese commander was shocked when he heard this. Although he didn't know where these devilish paratroopers were going, he was sure they had bad intentions.

The commander immediately dispatched personnel from the scarce troops to encircle the place where the paratroopers landed.

The paratroopers who had landed immediately built a defense line to prevent being encircled by the Japanese army.

There were still 28 paratroopers who had not yet arrived at the assembly point. However, according to the intelligence from the Golden Eagle, at least three Japanese troops were encircling their assembly area.

Unable to wait any longer, the captain of a battalion led the assembled paratroopers to retreat in the opposite direction of the command center and the material warehouse.

Under the guidance of the golden eagle, the first paratrooper battalion evaded the Japanese search and passed through the junction of the two Japanese armies.

The first paratrooper battalion escaped the encirclement of the Japanese army, and the captain led everyone to the Japanese headquarters and material warehouse.

At this time, the Japanese troops who arrived at the paratrooper assembly point began a comprehensive search.

The paratroopers who did not have time to reach the assembly point encountered the Japanese search troops, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

The captain did not stop evacuating. He took advantage of the paratroopers to attract the main force of the Japanese army and quickly rushed to the Japanese supply warehouse.

When the first paratrooper battalion arrived near the Japanese military supply warehouse and headquarters, the density of Japanese patrols and sentries became increasingly dense.

There was no doubt that the First Army's First Paratrooper Battalion had encountered a Japanese patrol, and fierce gunfire broke out.

The gunshots quickly attracted the surrounding Japanese troops.

Fortunately, the main force of the Japanese army in Suxian was fighting with the troops of the Third Regiment.

Whatever troops could be mobilized in the city were also sent to surround the paratrooper assembly area.

Under the fierce firepower of the paratroopers, the encircling Japanese troops quickly retreated.

The captain arranged for the second and third paratrooper squadrons to climb over the walls of the warehouse from both sides. He personally led the first paratrooper squadron to attract the attention of the Japanese army in the front.

The firepower of the paratroopers' attack was so fierce that the Japanese army had to continue to mobilize soldiers from the warehouse to reinforce.

At this time, fierce gunfire was heard from the Japanese military supply warehouse.

The Japanese troops left in the supply warehouse had no way to resist the attack of the paratroopers.
