In Yuanpingcheng, Feng Zhian, commander of the 37th Division, was having a secret combat meeting with Zhao Dengyu, commander of the 132nd Division and brigade commander.
"Have you contacted Deputy Commander Tong and Commander Song? Have you found out what kind of troops these flying troops suddenly appeared at Marco Polo Bridge to support our operations? Are the flying troops of the national army secretly coming to help? I heard that they have just arrived again.
The skies over Peiping City saved the citizens there and shot down all the Japanese planes that attacked from the air raids!"
"It was such a good fight. I never thought that our 29th Route Army would have aviation support operations. If it had always been there, then we would definitely not be afraid of the air raids and bombings of those damn Japanese aircraft groups of the Japanese Army!"
"The battle will definitely be very beneficial to us when the time comes!"
After receiving the news that a group of flying troops of unknown origin suddenly appeared in the sky above Marco Polo Bridge and Peking City, and shot down many Japanese aircraft groups, the 37th Division Commander Feng Zhi'an was immediately in a very good mood, and he continued to deal with
Brigadier Zhao asked.
"Well! I contacted them, but they are not flying troops of the national army. They have personally contacted the Central Army side, but the reply from that side is that they have not sent any flying troops to come to such a remote area like ours.
, conducting support operations!”
"And the model is not the model currently used by our national military flying force!"
Brigadier Zhao was worried and shook his head in response.
"Ah! Then what kind of flying force will they be to support our operations?"
"It seems that the only local troops that can still have aircraft are the Guangdong Army and the Guangxi Army! But they are all based in distant places and based on the impossibility of supporting our operations!"
"So I'm afraid we have to figure this out as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we are delayed in understanding the origins of these flying units and cannot contact them, we may miss such a good opportunity for cooperation!"
"With the aviation force supporting our operations, we will definitely no longer be afraid of attacks by Japanese aircraft groups and tanks and chariot units! Even the Japanese artillery units are no longer afraid because they can be destroyed by air strikes and bombings!"
"Just like the Japanese artillery troops on the other side of the Marco Polo Bridge, they were destroyed by air strikes and bombings!"
"This temporarily relieved the first round of the Japanese attack on Marco Polo Bridge, but the second round may not be so easy! Moreover, now the Japanese troops have encircled us in Yuanping City from three sides, and our situation is not very good.
Good thing, especially Commander Song's side still has unrealistic illusions about the Japanese army, and they will get peace negotiations to end this battle!"
After hearing that it was not the National Army Flying Corps,
Feng Zhi'an, the commander of the 37th Division, did not show any disappointment at all. Instead, he showed a more eager mood and expressed his opinion.
"Well! I'm already thinking of ways to contact these mysterious flying troops, but as you just said, the most important thing for us now is to resolve the battle crisis on Marco Polo Bridge and Yuanping City first!"
"Otherwise we will not be able to protect ourselves, and others will not cooperate with us to support us in fighting the Japanese invaders!"
Brigadier Zhao nodded in response.
"No! Brigadier! Division Commander!"
"The Japs troops on the other side of Marco Polo Bridge have launched another ferocious attack. This time they have dispatched a large group of over a thousand elite Japs infantry, as well as a large number of tanks and chariots, as well as artillery troops to support the operation!"
"Even a large number of Japanese planes came, and the fighting on that side started again!"
"And it's still in danger!"
"The 3rd Battalion is asking us for reinforcements. If no reinforcements come to support their battle, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long!"
"And the Japanese army has also begun to launch an offensive on our side of Yuanping City. They dispatched a group of tanks and chariots to take the lead in attacking!"
"And I'm afraid the Japanese aircraft group will come for reinforcements later!"
At this moment,
An orderly soldier, with an anxious look on his face, rushed over to give an urgent combat report to the division commander Feng Zhian and brigade commander Zhao, who were in the middle of a secret discussion.
