During the Anti-Japanese War, the landlord's stupid son defied fate

From then on, this once bustling county town was left with only a group of brave warriors who were ready to die.

At this time, the five commanders of the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Divisions held a crucial meeting in Pingyang.

After intense discussions and planning, they finally made an important decision.

After successfully contacting Zhao Gang, they informed him in detail of the severe situation Pingyang was currently facing and reported their well-considered decisions one by one.

Fortunately, Zhao Gang did not express any objection to their plan.

In this way, the five division commanders resolutely made up their minds to concentrate their respective forces to deal a heavy and fatal blow to the Japanese.

After the fierce battle was over, he led his troops to quickly retreat into the mountains to preserve their strength and look for new opportunities to fight.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, the dawn of the next morning had already spread across the earth.

However, what no one expected was that the Japanese had not yet launched a new round of attacks.

At this moment, the defenseless Japanese soldiers were suddenly hit by an overwhelming and fierce bombardment from five artillery battalions and five tank battalions.

In an instant, Pingyang and Yangcheng were both caught in a hail of bullets, with the sound of artillery and the air filled with smoke.

Such a large-scale battle scene not only stunned and at a loss the commander of the 14th Division who was in charge of commanding the operation; even the high-ranking Japanese North China Front Army far behind were stunned by this sudden change and were completely confused.

"idiot!"

The commander of the 14th Division roared loudly with his eyes wide open and veins bulging on his forehead.

"Notify the air force immediately to attack and bomb those damn bastards hard!

How dare you take the initiative to attack us!

It's simply a matter of life and death!"

Following the order from the commander of the 14th Division, the signalmen began to deliver the message in a hurry.

After receiving the order, the pilots at the Army Aviation Airport quickly boarded their fighter planes, and the roar of the engines resounded through the sky.

Fighter planes took off one after another and rushed towards the positions of the death soldiers.

This was an order personally issued by the commander of the North China Front Army. The division commanders on the front line had the power to call for support, and the Air Force was also well aware of the importance of the mission and gave full cooperation without hesitation.

However, not long after these arrogant Japanese planes arrived over the battlefield, they were greeted by a powerful anti-aircraft fire network from five ground anti-aircraft battalions.

Anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns and other weapons roared in unison, and the tongues of fire intertwined into a dense barrage of bullets.

Suddenly, there were loud noises, and five Japanese planes exploded in mid-air, turning into fireballs and falling down.

Seeing this, the rest of the enemy planes were so frightened that they dared not go any further and turned their planes around and fled in a panic.

The division commander standing in the command post witnessed this scene through a telescope, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.

He originally thought that the defenders would be vulnerable without Zhao Gang's command, but the fierce anti-aircraft firepower in front of him was completely beyond his expectations.

"What exactly is going on?

Didn’t they say that Zhao Gang had been transferred?

Why is the defense here still so tight?"

The commander of the 14th Division roared in frustration.

Faced with this situation, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

In desperation, the commander of the 14th Division had to send out an emergency distress signal again, requesting the large force in the rear to come to reinforce as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the war situation continues to develop like this, the troops he leads may not be able to hold out for too long.

At this moment, a billowing cloud of dust suddenly appeared on the distant horizon.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a steel torrent consisting of hundreds of tanks rushing towards the Japanese positions with overwhelming force.

These tanks were like unstoppable beasts, rampaging across the battlefield and tearing the Japanese's painstakingly built defenses into pieces.

The First Regiment had fought with the defenders of Pingyang before, but today the Japanese soldiers noticed that something was wrong.

This attack method is extremely fierce, beyond imagination!

How come this group of people are so powerful?

You know, they were the first regiment to choose to withdraw from the battlefield. They had suffered heavy losses in the previous battle and lost more than half of their troops. Now facing such a fierce attack, they had no ability to fight back.

Just as the First Regiment was losing ground, the following Second Regiment was also forced to retreat.

This sudden change really shocked the division commander and he was completely stunned.

On the battlefield, tanks and artillery cooperated closely with each other, and shells poured down like raindrops. For a time, the Japanese were in a mess and retreated to Yangcheng.

Is it possible to launch such a fierce offensive in just one day?

Everyone was secretly wondering, if this team had Zhao Gang's command and dispatch, would it be able to exert even stronger combat effectiveness?

At this time, in Yangcheng, the commander of the 14th Division was roaring in anger.

"Baga! How on earth do you fight a war, you useless bastards!"

His angry roar echoed in the air, deafening.

However, facing the reprimand from the division commander, the others were silent, with their heads lowered, not knowing how to respond.

After all, the defeat in this battle was indeed unexpected, and no one could give a reasonable explanation.

After calming down his anger a little, the division commander gritted his teeth and gave the order.

"Pass my instructions to everyone. You must continue the offensive tomorrow. No matter how many tanks or artillery pieces the enemy has, we will never retreat!

We must recapture the lost ground!"

However, just when they happily gathered their soldiers and prepared to fight a big battle.

A jaw-dropping scene occurred—the defenders who were supposed to be on high alert disappeared out of thin air!

Not only did the people disappear, but even the sophisticated equipment evaporated as if they had never existed.

Seeing this, the Japanese soldiers of the 14th Division felt a chill in their hearts, but military orders were as firm as a mountain, so they still gritted their teeth and quickly advanced into Pingyang County.

But what frightened them even more was that this county town was also deserted and as desolate as a dead city.

This sudden situation scared these usually arrogant Japanese soldiers so much that they looked at each other in bewilderment, and even their steps became hesitant, no longer daring to run around.

They just felt that all this was too weird and too unbelievable.
