Chapter 145 Air raids and bombing and recapture of Jinghai County!

“Yes, the group.”

Gu Jiaping, communications staff officer of the 303rd Regiment of the Shanxi Sui Army, nodded and said, then turned around and returned to the radio station, asking his communications soldiers to send a report to Zhu Ming immediately.

Four or five minutes later, Zhu Ming, the battalion commander of the cavalry battalion of the 303rd Regiment of the Jinsui Army, who had already arrived at the east gate of Jinghai County, and Li Yunlong, the commander of the new first regiment of the Eighth Route Army, were commanding their respective troops to jointly attack the east gate.

Since Jinghai County is not big, it is not small.

With half of Zhu Ming's cavalry battalion and the fact that more than 1,000 new regiment soldiers were actually more than 1,200 soldiers in the battalion commanded by Li Yunlong this time, the total number was only more than 1,200.

Obviously, it is impossible to really divide the troops and completely siege the city to attack.

Therefore, after discussing with Li Yunlong, Zhu Ming and Li Yunlong concentrated their troops to attack the west, divided some of the troops, and feinted the attack on the other three gates of Jinghai County.

Facing the fierce attacks of Zhu Ming and Li Yunlong, Taro Kawabian, the captain of the Second Infantry Brigade of the Fourth Japanese Brigade of the Japanese Brigade who was responsible for staying in Jinghai County, was able to command the more than 500 Japanese and more than 2,000 puppet troops in the city to guard the East Gate.

Of course, the other three gates were divided into troops, some Japanese and most of the puppet troops, to prevent Zhu Ming and Li Yunlong from attacking the east and west, and the main attack direction was really at other city gates.

"Report the camp, the group seat is urgently powered!!!"

Just as Zhu Ming and Li Yunlong were discussing how to break the city next, the correspondents from the cavalry battalion rushed to Zhu Ming and stood attentively to report.

"Um!!!"

Zhu Ming, the battalion commander of the Cavalry Battalion of the 303rd Regiment of the Shanxi Sui Army, nodded, and then took Xu Rui's call from the communications soldier and read it.

After reading it, Zhu Ming looked solemn and handed the telegram to Commander Li Yunlong, the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, saying: "Captain Li, the Japanese have sent troops to reinforce Jinghai County, with a full force of an infantry registrar."

"This is troublesome."

After Li Yunlong received the telegram from Zhu Ming and looked at it, he said with a serious look: "It is reported that the 41st Infantry Regiment belonging to the 3rd Guild Brigade is the same as the 40th Infantry Regiment, with a full wing."

"As the old Japanese devil Yoshinozuka, Yoshinan, was transferred to reinforce him like this, he must have at least a full 3,800 troops. Even if we capture Jinghai County next time, if we want to defend, there will be a lot of casualties. Moreover, Jinghai County is relatively large and the defense pressure is also great."

Seeing this, Zhu Ming immediately said: "Captain Li, the capital of Jinghai County, has now reserved a large amount of food, grass and ammunition for the Japanese counterattack army commanded by Taro Miyamoto."

"If we do not seize or destroy the food, grass and ammunition in the city, then the Kyohai Prefecture will still be a logistics supply base for the Japanese counterattack army. Although Shinozuka Yoshinan has dispatched transport planes to directly airdrop supplies to Taro Miyamoto, the amount of airdrop supplies cannot be compared with the ground supply."

After pausing, Zhu Ming said in a low voice, "What's more, there should be not many Japanese transport aircraft. Most of their transport aircraft are currently in the Zhongtiaoshan area."

"There are not many transport aircraft that can airdrop supplies to Taro Miyamoto, so the number of airdrops can only support Taro Miyamoto's urgent need."

Seeing this, Li Yunlong said, "So, we must conquer Jinghai County as soon as possible."

"right!"

Zhu Ming nodded and said in a calm voice.

"Then concentrate artillery and machine gun fire and attack the east gate of Jinghai County."

Li Yunlong pointed to the map and said to Zhu Ming: "Then, we will feint attacking the other three gates for ten minutes, and then move the main attack direction to the north gate while the enemy guarding the city is not paying attention."

"Captain Zhu, what do you think?"

Zhu Ming said: "It's feasible!".

"The North Gate is very unsuitable for siege. The Japanese commanders who defended the city have transferred most of the Japanese troops to the East Gate because of our previous fierce attack. There are fewer troops there!"

"If you succeed, we can break the city within half an hour."

Seeing this, Li Yunlong knew that Zhu Ming had agreed to his strategy and immediately said, "Then just fight like this."

"Zhang Dabiao!"

Immediately, Li Yunlong shouted Zhang Dabiao directly and said to him: "According to this plan, more than 500 troops will be concentrated to attack the East Gate."

"The other five hundred, two hundred troops will be divided into two hundred troops to cooperate with the information of Battalion Zhu, and feinted the attack of the West Gate, South Gate and North Gate. For the other three hundred people, you personally command the sight of the Japanese on the top of the city, and go around the north gate from the woods outside the city to the north gate and then launch a fierce attack! Be sure to break through the north gate within five minutes. I will transfer three of the ten mortars I brought to you, and the three flying thunder cannons brought by Battalion Zhu will be enough to cover the fire to break through the north gate."

When Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion of the New First Regiment, stood attentively and saluted: "I understand, the commander, please ensure that the task is completed."

"Action now!"

Li Yunlong stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand.

Zhu Ming immediately left the temporary command center, directly commanding half of the cavalry battalion of his headquarters, and continued to feint attack the remaining three gates of Jinghai County.

After Li Yunlong and Zhu Ming were preparing to make a strategic decision to attack the north outside Jinghai County, a bomber group composed of the Japanese Type 96 land attack aircraft that had taken off from Taiyuan City Airport was less than fifteen minutes away from the Huting stronghold.

Fifteen minutes is just the time for a meal.

At 12:33 noon, Taro Miyamoto, who was waiting for the air raid aircraft to fly over, received the walkie-talkie from the Japanese flight commander of the air raid aircraft, and contacted directly.

"General Miyamoto, our aircraft group will fly to the sky above the enemy defenders' positions at Huting stronghold in one minute. Please inform us of the bombing coordinates."

When Taro Miyamoto heard the voice of the flight commander of the group from the other end of the walkie-talkie, he was immediately overjoyed and immediately said: "The bombing coordinate is xxx, please bomb according to this coordinate immediately."

"Yes, General Miyamoto!"

The flight commander of the Japanese Type 96 air raid aircraft group on the other end of the walkie-talkie replied.

Then, soon, Taro Miyamoto heard the air raid fleet flying rapidly from the southeast.

"Yoxi, it is worthy of being the powerful bomber of the Empire. Ten are indeed spectacular!"

Taro Miyamoto, Kenjiro Ikeda and other Japanese generals looked up and saw the group of Japanese bombers emerging from the clouds in the southeast sky.

But before the air raid group began to bomb, Jiro Inaba, the communications officer of the Fourth Brigade, ran to the hillside in front of the military tent command center, and reported urgently to Miyamoto Taro, who was looking up at the bomber group who was about to start flying to the sky above the Huting stronghold for bombing, "Report to General, the commander of the defending army commander of the Kyohai Prefecture, Kawabai Taro, urgently reported that the Kyohai Prefecture Prefecture was lost."

"Nani?"

Hearing Inaba Jiro's hurried and panicked report, Taro Miyamoto lowered his head, then felt a little confused, and then roared: "How is that possible?"

"In less than twenty minutes, I just sent them a report of less than twenty minutes, Taro Kawabian threw me away Jinghai County? Didn't he tell them and defend me to death. What's more, the commander has already transferred the 41st Infantry Regiment to Jinghai County quickly and reinforce them."

Inaba Jiro said bitterly: "The enemy's voice is east to attack the north, and breaks the city from the north gate."

"Taro Kawaben was confused by the illusion of the enemy's attack on the East Gate. He thought the enemy was mainly attacking the East Gate. Suddenly, the enemy suddenly attacked fiercely from the north. There were only some imperial soldiers in the north gate of Jinghai, most of which were imperial assistants. The combat effectiveness of the imperial assistant was suddenly destroyed, and the northern gate was bombarded by artillery fire, and the city was broken in an instant."
