Chapter 173 The Japs Are Dumbfounded

High-explosive armor-piercing shells rained down on the enemy planes, turning the Japanese bombers into sieves.

Not only was the engine blown up, but all six Japanese crew members in the bomber were killed directly in the cabin.

Losing balance and power, the unmanned bomber turned into an extremely heavy block of iron, falling straight to the ground at the speed of free fall.

"Boom!"

Following a deafening roar, flames rose from the ground and thick smoke billowed.

The Japanese bomber plunged into the ground, creating a big hole in the hard ground.

But this is not the end.

Under the belly of the bomber, there were still many bombs hanging that had not been dropped just now.

Under such a violent impact, all the bombs were detonated and exploded one after another.

"Boom! Boom boom boom..."

The Japanese fighter plane, which had already been smashed to pieces, was once again blown into even smaller pieces by the continuously exploding shells.

The six Japanese crew members were blown to pieces, not even a fingernail-sized fragment was left.

"Where to run!"

At the same time, two Japanese fighter planes at ultra-low altitude also noticed something was wrong and prepared to escape.

But it's too late.

Zheng Kaixuan did not give them this opportunity.

He made full use of the rapid-firing capability of the anti-aircraft machine gun and used bullets to create a rain of bullets around the two Japanese fighter planes.

This high-explosive armor-piercing shell can penetrate the Japanese fighter planes just like a sharp knife can penetrate a piece of paper with one shot!

The Japanese fighter planes had no ability to resist at all.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In just a moment, in the blink of an eye, the Japanese fighter plane followed the bomber and crashed to the ground in a free fall.

It’s a long story, but in fact, the entire battle, from the moment Zheng Kaixuan started shooting into the air to the moment the Japanese plane crashed, lasted no more than 40 seconds!

And in just forty seconds, Zheng Kaixuan, regardless of the losses, fired more than 1,300 high-explosive armor-piercing shells.

A sky net was woven with bullets!

Not to mention such huge fighter jets and bombers as targets, even if a small sparrow flew by here, it would be shot down.

After the two fighter jets landed on the ground, they immediately caught fire.

Needless to say, the pilots of the two Japanese fighter planes were all killed without a complete corpse.

At this moment, Xin Qiankun and ten other soldiers also walked out of the tunnel.

The flashlights lit up, and several people followed Zheng Kaixuan and quickly rushed to the three crash sites.

"Hiss! Commander, the Japanese plane was actually shot down!"

"It's so satisfying! I never thought the Japs would end up like this!"

"From now on, our spearhead regiment won't have to be afraid when encountering Japanese planes."

Everyone was extremely excited and pointed at the wreckage of the Japanese plane on the ground and talked about it.

"Blow it up and retreat immediately."

Because these two fighter jets fell from an ultra-low altitude, although the fighter jets have crashed, many parts have not been completely damaged.

Zheng Kaixuan asked Xin Qiankun to bring the explosives and completely blow up the wreckage of the plane, leaving no spare parts for the Japanese.

At this moment, Niu Dashan came out of the mountains with dozens of people from the guard company and more than 30 war horses.

"Captain, we're here to pick you up."

Under the command of Zheng Kaixuan, the 14th-level Hanyang tank was finally dismantled into parts.

Including the tracks, they were dismantled into hundreds of pieces.

After putting all the stuff on the horses' backs, everyone led the horses into the mountains at night and joined up with the main force.

Heading south from Wei Zhuang and crossing a few hills, you will enter the rolling mountains and old forests connected to the Changyu Valley area.

Deep in the mountains, the soldiers had already arranged everything.

The headquarters of the Sharp Knife Regiment was set up in a cave on a hilltop.

Although the area of ​​this cave is not too large, it is more than enough to accommodate dozens of people.

The entrance to the cave is blocked by many ancient pine trees with dense branches and vines, so it can be said to be quite hidden.

Even if the Japanese planes were conducting reconnaissance from the air, it would generally be difficult for them to find this place.

The other soldiers also found hiding places.

Many soldiers were born and raised in the local area. They had been active in the mountains with their elders since childhood. They were very familiar with places suitable for hiding and camping.

Everyone was stationed on several hills in battalion and company units.

Some camps found caves and moved in, while others set up their tents in the dense woods.

Some camps hid in the valley. In short, everything was arranged properly.

Near the campsite of the Sharp Knife Regiment, there are several mountain springs and a small waterfall. The clear and sweet spring water is enough to meet everyone's daily drinking water needs.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days, Zheng Kaixuan and all the soldiers did almost nothing, which was considered a good rest.

Although they were hiding in the mountains, they had food, drink, and a place to live. Their living standards had not declined but had improved a lot.

Zheng Kaixuan had previously exchanged a lot of hot water bottles and pollution-free antiseptic soaps.

Each battalion, company, and squad has an assignment.

The most important thing about a hot water bottle is its portability. Open the lid to drain the water and air, and then roll it up to the size of a blanket, so you can take it wherever you go.

The thing that is most abundant in the mountains is sunshine. Just fill some water and find a sunny place to dry it. You can create conditions for a shower anytime and anywhere.

The soldiers could easily build a temporary shower room in the mountains using bamboo poles. They just cut a few bamboo poles to make a frame and surrounded it with grass leaves, and it could be used.

In addition to being able to take a bath freely, the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Regiment have also caught a lot of wild game in the mountains.

In a short period of time, we have achieved freedom of game.

Pheasants, rabbits, wild boars and various wild vegetables were all available in the troops, and they were drenched in food. Especially for some soldiers whose hometowns were outside the area, they could say they had a feast here.

With such a peaceful life to live, Zheng Kaixuan and the soldiers were not in a hurry at all.

Anyway, the outside was completely desolate and the Japanese couldn't find even a grain of rice.

If we fortify our defenses and clear the countryside, the only ones who will be anxious are the Japanese.

Three days later, a large group of Japanese troops listlessly marched to the vicinity of Heiyunkou. They were the Maruyama Brigade of the 20th Division.

After arriving at Heiyunkou, Maruyama Sutaku ordered to stop advancing.

He had a hard time during these three days.

Ever since the food and fodder carried by the Ono Regiment was burned by the Sharp Knife Regiment, the entire Japanese brigade has basically not had a full meal.

Although they had applied for food and fodder support from the Japanese Expeditionary Force Headquarters, the food and fodder from the rear were not delivered that quickly, and it would take some time.

In the short term, if they want to solve the food problem, they have to rely on themselves.

If the problem cannot be solved, then we can only retreat.

However, since they have already arrived at Heiyunkou, Maruyama Sutaku is unwilling to retreat no matter what.

"Each infantry company and squadron, go down and grab food! I don't believe there's not a single grain of rice in the entire Heiyunkou!"

Maruyama is preparing to let his troops rob food!

This is obviously not the first time the Japanese have done this.

However, this time they were destined to be disappointed.

Not to mention Heiyunkou, even within a radius of dozens of kilometers, Zheng Kaixuan didn't even leave him a grain of rice! Maruyama was dumbfounded at the time.
