Devil's Army

The commander of a regiment was most afraid of counting casualties after the war. Last time, the number of casualties in their regiment dropped from more than 2800 to more than 800. He really didn't want to experience that feeling again.

But as long as the Japanese invaders are not driven out of the land of China, their group will continue to experience the helplessness and sorrow of having their number reduced from 2800 to 800.

When the Japanese fighter planes saw the Devil Force's bombers bombing their ground troops, they turned around and attacked the Devil Force's bombers.

When the four H-41 bombers of the First Army saw the Japanese fighter planes coming, they immediately increased their throttle and flew to the south of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport to attack the attacking ground forces of the Japanese st Regiment.

The four H-1 bombers of the First Army shuttled back and forth on the three battlefields of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport at a speed unmatched by the Japanese, attacking the attacking ground forces of the Japanese Army.

The exhausted Japanese fighter planes had to arrange several fighter planes to patrol the skies over the battlefields on three sides of the Xiaoguanzhuang Airport to prevent sneak attacks by the Devil Forces' bombers.

However, this weakened the strength of the Japanese fighter group, and Captain Ren occasionally seized the opportunity to shoot down Japanese fighters.

Captain Xu's aviation formation flew over Fengrun County, where there were only seven Japanese Type 95 fighters and five Type 98 heavy bombers.

As soon as they saw Captain Xu's formation of planes flying over, they immediately led a main aircraft and sent six fighter jets as wingmen, guarding the flanks while rushing towards the leader Captain Xu.

The five Japanese bombers stopped bombing and fled immediately.

Captain Xu and the two wingmen next to him fired at the Japanese main engine with a total of nine 20mm machine guns.

Although the Japanese fighter planes also fired at Captain Xu's three fighter planes at the same time, their main engine disintegrated in mid-air under the fierce strafing of the three fighter planes of the First Army.

Captain Xu and his men then quickly pulled up the plane and whizzed past the Japanese fighter planes.

At the same time, the five H-1 bombers in the formation concentrated their bombs on the Japanese troops on the road from Fengrun County to Ji County, blasting open a passage in the Japanese blocking positions.

The 1st Regiment of the 12th Brigade, which came to reinforce from Ji County, quickly followed and widened the gap on both wings, opening up the passage from Fengrun County to Ji County.

The main engine of the Japanese fighter plane was shot down, and the other fighter planes could not catch up with Captain Xu's plane. They had to turn around and attack the bombers of the Devil Force that were bombing the soldiers of the 11th Mixed Brigade stationed there.

However, the five H-1 bombers of the First Army disappeared without a trace in a flash.

When the commander of the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Army, Commander Yuichiro Nono, was gathering the troops that were scattered by the st Army, he discovered that the second fortification of the Devil Army was changing guard, and immediately ordered the guard troops around him to attack the fortification.

The Third Company of the Second Brigade responded hastily and was very passive.

The Japanese Third Battalion quickly gathered under the personal supervision of the commander of the regiment, Yuichiro Nagano, and organized a large-scale offensive. Moreover, this offensive also added a lot of grenade launchers.

Grenade launcher shells kept exploding in the trenches where the Third Company was hastily fighting, and machine gunners of the Third Company were blown away one by one.

The Third Company lacked machine gun firepower and could only use intensive grenade explosions to keep the Japanese troops outside the fortifications.

These Japanese troops were like puppets. Seeing the soldiers around them fall one by one, they were not afraid at all. They did not retreat, but just lay on the ground and fired at the three companies.

"Commander, this group of Japanese troops are different from the previous ones. They should be their elite troops." The battalion commander now only has the third company in the fortifications. He said to the commander worriedly.

"Our planes can't provide support, so should we tell them to retreat to the first line of fortification?" A regiment commander said helplessly when he saw Japanese fighter planes patrolling in the sky.

"Captain, the first line of defense is the last line of defense to the north of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport. If it is lost, Xiaoguanzhuang Airport will fall into the hands of the Japanese army. Should we send reinforcements?"

Although the battalion commander was worried about the safety of his last company, he still knew the importance of the matter.

The commander of the first regiment knew this, but he was also afraid that his first battalion would be wiped out. After thinking it over, he ordered the commander of the second battalion to arrange a company to reinforce.

However, Captain Nagano Yuichiro knew the reinforcement route of the 1st Regiment from the recent rotation of the 3rd and 2nd Companies. When he saw soldiers coming to reinforce from that road, he immediately ordered the artillery to block the reinforcement path.

The first company of the second battalion was blocked outside the fortifications by the intensive artillery fire of the Japanese army, and only a few people broke through the blockade of the Japanese artillery fire.

"Has your 11th Brigade deployed artillery in this direction?" a regimental commander asked a soldier from the 11th Brigade who remained in the command center.

"Yes, there are tanks behind the first line of defense."

"Okay, order the troops to retreat to the last line of defense." A regiment commander said to the messenger beside him.

The third company and the first company of the second battalion received the order to withdraw to the third line of defense at Xiaoguanzhuang Airport.

Lieutenant Commander Nagano Yuichiro successfully occupied the second fortification, becoming the 5th Division of the Japanese Army closest to the Xiaoguanzhuang Airport.

At this time, the 41st Regiment of the Japanese Army that attacked Linnancang Town had already entered the town. Soldiers of the First Army were relying on the houses to engage in street fighting with the Japanese soldiers of the 41st Regiment.
