Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

"This is the demeanor of the Qin Army's elite warriors!"

Zong Yucheng and Chen Zhongjun lay in the distance holding a telescope and watched the battle between the 78th Infantry Brigade and the Japanese 71st Mixed Brigade. Five hours later, both armies were exhausted, especially the Japanese. After their tanks were destroyed, they were almost in an absolute disadvantage. They fought hard with the 78th Infantry Brigade for five hours, and the battle was a sea of ​​blood and corpses with smoke rising everywhere!

"Amazing!"

Chen Zhongjun said, "Our Xiang Army is only a hair's breadth away from the Qin Army. Back then, the imperial court's 33-man army was beaten to pieces by the 8 Qin Army, earning us the title of Qin Army's elite soldiers. Now it seems that we are fully worthy of this title!"

"In this battle," Chen Zhongjun said, "the Japs will definitely lose. They are just struggling to hold on now."

"Commander-in-Chief."

At this time, the deputy chief of staff came to Zong Yucheng and Chen Zhongjun and said, "Hainan Town has been lost. The guard regiment and two artillery battalions sent by the First Division have been fighting against the attack of more than 3 Japanese troops from two divisions. Now they are probably unable to hold on. The troops we sent to intercept the Japanese divisions in the north are also unable to hold on. The casualties are too great. Even if all the bridges are blown up, they can only hold out for six hours at most."

"It's our turn."

Zong Yucheng said, "The imperial army is incompetent. Whether this battle can stabilize the situation in Shanglu depends on us. There are four divisions of devils in the north and south defense zones. However, two of these four divisions were annihilated by us with more than 6 people, and the other two divisions were annihilated by the single division with more than people. Now the combat strength of these four divisions is about , which is about the same as ours, but we only need to hold on for four hours!"

......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Lin personally went to the front line to command and came to the front line in Pukou District. At this time, the 77th Infantry Brigade had been fighting with the 12th Division of the Japanese for five hours. Under the fire support of the heavy artillery brigade, although the morale of the Japanese was hit, the Japanese division had nearly 2 combat personnel after all, so the 77th Brigade was fighting hard at this time.

"The devil's fighting power should not be underestimated!"

Qin Lin was in the underground command post, looking at the battle situation on the front line through a small window. At this time, the 77th Infantry Brigade was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of personnel, and was already a little tired, with losses of nearly a thousand people. However, the Japanese were not much better, with losses of no less than 3 people, a small half of whom were killed by the artillery brigade, but the firepower of the artillery regiment directly under the Japanese division was also very strong.

"Pooh!"

After spitting out a mouthful of mud, Yan Haokou, commander of the 77th Infantry Brigade, picked up the telescope and cursed, "The Japanese's artillery firepower is also very strong!"

"More than that!"

Chief of Staff Shen Lie said, "12 105mm howitzers, 24 75mm infantry guns, and a large number of mortars. It is estimated that a division of the Japanese is equipped with more than 200 mortars, more than 500 light machine guns, and heavy machine guns. The firepower is very strong. Fortunately, our firepower is stronger than that of the Japanese. Otherwise, how can a brigade of troops compete with a division of the Japanese? But the brothers are a little tired!"

"Brothers, grit your teeth and hold on. It's difficult for us, but it's even more difficult for the Japanese. The young marshal just called and said that Zhang Hu's guard regiment has begun to withdraw. The 78th Brigade is fighting fiercely with the Japanese mixed brigade. In another hour or two, we can completely defeat the Japanese. When the reinforcements arrive, we will be able to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese 12th Division in one fell swoop!"

Yan Haokong said, "Let the troops retreat 800 meters later, and block the Japanese from getting close to us while retreating. The support of the flying troops will arrive soon. This victory will definitely belong to our Qin Army!"

"understand!"

As time went by, the fighting on the front line was in full swing, and the court was also shouting enthusiastically, because in this battle, in addition to the court and the Northeastern Black Army troops, all other supporting troops were involved, and this battle was not commanded by the court. So as soon as Hu Feng knew about this, he distanced himself from it, saying that this battle was an unauthorized action by various troops, and if any losses were caused, the consequences would be borne by themselves.

Qin Lin did not pay too much attention to this. All his energy was now on the battlefield. Now the 78th Infantry Brigade had wiped out most of the Japanese from the 71st Mixed Brigade. With the fire support of the heavy artillery brigade, the 71st Mixed Brigade was defeated in one blow.

"Well done!"

Qin Lin punched the sand table excitedly and said, "It's almost time. The flying troops will arrive soon to provide support. Leave the fleeing soldiers of the 71st Mixed Brigade to Zong Yucheng and his men. Have Chang Xingwang quickly lead his troops to the central area and join the 77th Brigade to kill the Japanese 12th Division."

"Report."

The adjutant came up to Qin Lin and said, "Captain Zhang is back."

"Are there many casualties?"

As for the guard regiment he specially trained, every soldier was a selected elite, and he would not let the guard regiment go to the battlefield unless it was absolutely necessary.

"More than a battalion of soldiers were lost!"

Qin Lin felt very painful when he heard this, but he still gave the order, "Let Zhang Hu lead the guard regiment to the front line to support the 77th Brigade in attacking the Japanese 12th Division. Also, let the heavy artillery brigade concentrate all its firepower and fire clearing fire at the Japanese 12th Division."

"Yes, Marshal."

Qin Lin has already piled up all his assets, including the flying troops that will soon come to support.

"How is Zong Yucheng doing?" Qin Lin asked Wu Bei beside him.

"Fight to the death!"

Wu Bei responded, "The four Japanese divisions, with nearly 60,000 troops, are fighting with Commander Zong, Commander Chen, and Commander Wang. They are fighting to the death with the Japanese, not letting any Japanese escape, nor letting any Japanese enter Pukou District."

"Okay!"

Qin Lin looked at the map and said, "Time is running out. They may not be able to hold out for too long. We need to speed up!"

At 60:2 p.m., a large number of fighter planes appeared in Shanglu. 70 SB-36 high-speed bombers and P- fighters arrived at the front battlefield. They refueled at Jinling Airport and then arrived at the battlefield in full condition.

The P-36 fighter jet also made its debut in Daqian Country. This fighter jet was purchased by the Qin family from the United States. A total of 210 aircraft were purchased. Ten of them crashed during training, leaving only 10 aircraft. Now 200 of them have been directly dispatched.

The main weapons of this fighter are equipped with two 7.62mm machine guns and one 12.7mm heavy machine gun. The maximum speed is 480 kilometers per hour and the maximum range is 1300 kilometers. Its performance is much better than that of the Japanese Type fighter.

P-36

"Report to the captain, we have arrived at the combat site and are requesting fire support for the army."

"approve!"

With a sound of approval, 70 fighter planes began free-style shooting in a 77 formation, launching firepower strikes on the Japanese troops who were counterattacking on the ground. At this time, the Japanese troops saw the 77th Infantry Brigade fighting and retreating, and thought that the th Infantry Brigade was about to collapse, so they rushed and counterattacked, preparing to welcome victory, but who would have thought that it was to make room for the flying troops!
