Chapter 817 A lively New Year!

Because of this unexpected "fireworks" feast, the hearts of the people in the venue were tossed up and down several times like an elevator.

However, for most people, the joy far outweighs the panic.

Although the battlefield was right in front of them, the Japanese fighter planes were basically forced to drop their bombs several kilometers away. Apart from the loud noise, the people did not experience the horror of heavy aerial bombs, but what they saw was

The Japanese planes looked like birds being hunted amidst the frenzied fire from our own air defense forces. The feeling should not be too exciting.

Of course, the more important thing is that the determination of the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment also gave them enough confidence. When the Japanese planes approached menacingly in the sky, and everyone's face was as pale as paper, the people standing in the same trench with them

However, the officers and soldiers of the Si Xing Regiment remained unmoved.

They even heard someone placing bets at the opening.

"I bet that the Japanese planes will be shot down before they can fly to Captain Cheng's air defense position! I'll pay you one against one, so you are welcome to place your bets!" Old Abacus shouted with such a loud voice that people in the trenches hundreds of meters away could hear him.

Several captains with higher military rank than Lao Abacus glanced at Lao Abacus who was gambling over there, but no one tried to stop him.

They all know that there are woods and trenches here, but they are much more concealed than the trenches on the front line that have been blown bare by artillery fire. Not to mention that the regiment headquarters has already sent the order. This is a well-prepared air defense.

In the battle, even if the Japanese planes flew over and dropped bombs, it wouldn't be a big deal for them, who were nearly a kilometer away from the venue.

But the people don’t know! Once someone wants to escape out of fear, it’s not a big deal if they are killed by a Japanese plane. It’s all over if the Japanese plane is attracted to them.

Lao Abacus's move can be regarded as a reassuring move, and it is more effective than the soldiers with guns and live ammunition standing at the edge of the trench to maintain order.

"Uncle Jia, please rest assured. Ever since I fought with Commander Tang against the Japanese army, the Japanese army has never taken advantage!" The words of Qian Dazhu, who had been accompanying Jia Dongxing and a group of people, also made the 'celebrities' feel at ease even if they didn't want to.

Facts have proved that the confidence of the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment is not in vain.

Not a single Japanese plane reached a position 2 kilometers away from the crowd. The artillery fire all over the sky scared them away and then shot them down one by one.

It’s really like what Tang Dao said, giving everyone a New Year’s ‘fireworks’!

No one expected this. Not only did they watch a grand military parade and program of the Four Troops, but they also watched a ground-to-air battle at close range. This experience alone can last a lifetime.

Perhaps people at this time have not realized that it won't be long before such battles break out in the air and will not be uncommon on the land of China.

As the Japanese army pressed forward step by step, China, which had never given up resistance, fought bravely in one big city after another. The Japanese army had to send fighter planes for bombing, and the weak Chinese Air Force also fought back with all its strength.

In the sky, Chinese and Japanese fighter planes fought hard, and on the ground, hundreds of thousands of people eagerly watched the battle.

Our fighter plane caught fire and crashed, and the people cried. The Japanese fighter plane was hit and exploded, and the people cheered.

The remains and wounded of many Chinese pilots were found by people on the ground.

But no matter what, I was more happy than frightened on this day.

When the soldiers and civilians returned to the venue, they performed several more performances. The chefs who stood in front of the stove again cooked the meat. The aroma spread throughout the countryside, and the lively flowing water banquet began.

That scene was not ordinary spectacular.

In the venue with a radius of more than 7,000 meters, rows of long tables and benches that have not been completely planed and with fresh wood thorns exposed in some places are neatly placed.

As for this, the venue was too small, and there was no room for many tables and benches to be placed, so they were placed directly in the unmaintained wilderness.

When put together, the length reaches 50 meters. There are 20 rows of long tables that can seat 200 people eating at the same time, which is enough for nearly 4,000 people to sit down and enjoy a meal at the same time.

The long wooden table is 0.8 meters wide, with people sitting on both sides. The width can reach 1.8 meters. There is still a gap of one meter between each row for the waiters to serve food. With twenty rows of long tables lined up, there are almost 500 people.

It's only one meter long. It would take three minutes to go from the first row to the last row, let alone walking.

The 60 waiters provided by the restaurant were probably not even enough for a small change. Mayor Huang, who had received a lot of benefits, did not lose face now and personally brought 300 town residents to help serve the dishes.

Various braised meats are being served to the table, and the smoke of burning wood and the aroma of meat are lingering in the spacious place.

A small group of 4,000 people divided by region came to the table to dine together. Those who wanted to drink were provided with white wine, but a jar of white wine was placed next to the long table and you had to take a bowl and pour it yourself.

It's just that for these people, meat is obviously more attractive than wine. The feeling of eating fat meat in large pieces, especially if it's free, shouldn't be too beautiful.

But at this scale, there are still thousands of people watching outside the venue, and the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment are also waiting for the people to finish eating before preparing to serve it.

"My dear! This scene is so awesome. When my son gets married, if I can put on a show like this, I will definitely be proud of myself." Li Jijin licked his lips, feeling attracted by this.

The scene was so shocking that he couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm talking about Lao Li! Don't wait for your son to get married. Of all the company commanders in the regiment, you, Captain Li, can save money. In the evening, you invite a few of our old brothers to have a good meal at a big restaurant in Zhengzhou City. From now on, I will...

When Hai sees you, he salutes you with a military salute. In Japanese terms, it will definitely save you a lot of face." Fatty Hai on the other side joked.

"I bet, you old man is really short-sighted and just stares at the little money I have worked so hard to save. Last time, I invited you bastards to eat baked potatoes. How come you forgot so quickly?"

Li Jijin's biggest taboo is the ocean he saved so hard. When he heard Pang Dahai was encouraging him to treat him, his eyes almost turned green.

"Old Pang, don't irritate my Jiujin brother. Our Jiujin sister-in-law's two big kitchen knives are even scary to bandits. You think my Jiujin brother dares to spend money randomly! Don't go back, my Jiujin sister-in-law is a

Seeing that he didn’t bring any money, he chopped up my Jiujin brother and made dumpling fillings!” After the battle, Cheng Tieshou, who brought his 2nd artillery company and hurriedly returned to the venue, smiled like a flower with his big black face.

All the merits of this battle belong to the First War Zone, and the fallen aircraft wreckage will naturally be cleaned up by those troops. The 2nd Artillery Company did not need to clean up the mess at all. They just packed up the equipment and put it on the pack horse, and then came back to drink and eat meat.

.

A great victory was won, no brothers in the company were lost, and some newcomers were given practical training. How could Cheng Tieshou be unhappy?

"Believe it or not, I'm bastardizing you and drooling all over your face. I'm telling you bastards not to provoke me with your sister-in-law. I saved up the dowry for my daughter-in-law. No one can spend even half a penny on it.

"Li Jijin sneered, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

Anyway, Mr. Li's nickname has already spread, and he is not afraid of being called a few more times.

He rolled his eyes, but thought of something, and slapped his thigh: "Yes! One of you will count as one, and my son will be there when he gets married. As an uncle, remember to prepare a big red envelope!"

"I" Pang Dahai was stunned.

He has seen shameless people, but he has never seen such shameless ones. His son is just a little bigger, but he is really thinking about the red envelopes from his colleagues.

Moreover, it’s hard to refute him. After all, everyone wants to live until that day, right? The subtext of Lao Li’s words is also a New Year’s blessing, wishing everyone to live for another ten years.

This would be insulting in ordinary times, but in this war era, every extra year of life is earned.

"What are you talking about so happily?" Tang Dao strode over from outside the venue.

Cheng Tieshou came back directly with the 2nd Artillery Battery, but Tang Dao, the commander-in-chief, could not just get out of the plane and escape. He had to meet with the air defense battalion commanders and company commanders who had made great achievements.

The news of the downing of the Japanese plane had already been reported by the signal corps through the field radio to Commander Cheng who was stationed at the headquarters in the city. Tang Dao and the battalion commanders and company commanders who were fighting side by side saluted, shook hands, and asked them to clean the battlefield, and then according to the headquarters

The military orders were returned to the headquarters of various ministries.

It is no big deal for Tang Dao, the commander-in-chief, to step down after the war, but these air defense troops cannot relax. In order to prevent the Japanese from retaliating, they must be on 24-hour combat duty.

Of course, when Tang Dao directly handed over the command to Colonel Fan, he also believed that there should be no fighting today. The Japanese army had just suffered heavy losses. Knowing that a large amount of air defense equipment was gathered here, he wanted to organize a wave of bombings, unless it was someone else.

The commander is out of his mind.

In fact, Tang Dao really underestimated Juichi Terauchi.

After receiving the news from Taiyuan that "Only one fighter plane has returned, and all the other fighter planes have perished!", His Excellency General Teuchi Shoudai, who was stationed in Yanjing, almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, and immediately sent an order to station in Yanjing.

The 89th Group of Army Aviation at the airport ordered them to immediately prepare 24 bombers, transfer to Taiyuan, and continue the second wave of bombing on the target.

The general commander of Japan's North China Expeditionary Force has a very clear mind. The Chinese have just won a great victory and will definitely relax their vigilance. The Chinese have fought against the 20th Division in the Taihang Mountains several times to "use troops to recover", and he is also going to come here.

Take the Chinese by surprise.

However, Lieutenant Sasaki, the only one who could return to Taiyuan Airport, complained that it was a trap. The Chinese set up countless air defense positions several kilometers in front of the target. Not only did they have a large number of 20mm machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, and even

There are at least 8 large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. Even if the fighter plane has been raised to more than 3,000 meters, it is still within the range of this type of anti-aircraft guns.

After much hesitation, Touichi Terauchi finally gave up the idea of ​​bombing again.

He understood that he had been fooled this time.

According to the situation of the war, the Chinese commander stationed in Yu Province just used the Four Lines Regiment as bait, allowing the spies to release the news, and then gathered all the air defense firepower he could muster to set up an ambush on the road that must pass through the target.

It was a blow to the completely defenseless fleet of aircraft under his command.

But he happened to be fooled, and now he also understands that it was his opponent taking advantage of Itagaki Seishiro's eagerness for revenge. It seemed like a simple design, but it also contained enough wisdom and ruthlessness.

If the fleet he sent had not chosen to enter from the north, it would have been the destruction of an infantry regiment and thousands of casualties.

But there were no ifs. In order to save fuel or be unscrupulous, the Army Air Force fleet chose to fly in a straight line, and happened to run into the firepower network that the opponent had already deployed.

The final reason why he had no choice but to give up this decision was not how many anti-aircraft guns China had, but that he understood that there must be countless pairs of eyes staring at the sky above Taiyuan Airport. As long as there are fighter planes taking off, this information will definitely be

Pass it on.

And if he forcibly orders the fighter planes to take off from Yanjing Airport, the straight-line distance from Yanjing to Zhengzhou exceeds 600 kilometers, which has reached the limit of the 93 bomber's combat radius, which will only give the fighter planes no more than 10 minutes to stay over the target. If it is with the Chinese

When fighting in air defense positions, no matter how powerful the Chinese anti-aircraft guns are, most of the fighter planes would be unable to return to Taiyuan Airport 380 kilometers away because they ran out of fuel.

There's just one thing, the Japanese Army General still can't figure out. Is what he sent out a group of pigs? After being attacked, he immediately dropped the bombs and pulled up the ground to return. No matter how powerful the opponent's anti-aircraft artillery group was, they couldn't group them together.

Destroy it!

No, maybe it's not a total annihilation. After all, a single seedling came back and brought back the battle situation at that time, at least letting the Japanese Army General know where he was wrong.

Perhaps, he could only obtain this question through the description of Second Lieutenant Sasaki. In Second Lieutenant Sasaki's description, whether it was Second Lieutenant Sasaki who died at the beginning or the pilots whose wings were broken over Henan Province, they were all worthy of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force.

After being attacked, they fought back bravely and destroyed at least five Chinese air defense positions. However, it was actually the Chinese that deployed too many machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns. They even hid four large-caliber anti-aircraft guns.

, was not exposed until the middle and late stages of the battle, causing them to want to retreat but also lost the opportunity.

As for how he escaped, Sasaki also had his own explanation. He was flying at low altitude as a reconnaissance aircraft. Perhaps the Chinese let him go in order not to alert others, and waited until the fleet officially appeared over the air defense positions before suddenly

Fired fiercely, and he quickly dropped his bombs to attack the enemy and then left the battlefield. When he received the order from Lieutenant Zaoshita, who took over the command of Captain Shenmu, to attack the enemy again, he had no bombs and could only watch on the wall until he saw

After most of his colleagues were killed and several fighter planes were injured and left the battlefield, he escorted them from the battlefield.

However, before they could fly out of Henan Province, those fighter planes were all forced to make an emergency landing due to severe damage. However, they all failed to make an emergency landing, and even the chance to parachute was lost.

For this reason, he hovered over several fighter planes for several weeks before returning to the airport.

When he returned, the bullet holes left in his plane and the low fuel in the tank seemed to support his description.

The Type 93 bomber, which has an attack radius of 600 kilometers, can fly from Taiyuan to Zhengzhou in one and a half round trips if its fuel tank is full.

Although it was a failed air raid, it was the commander's mistake and had nothing to do with the soldiers. No matter how unhappy Terauchi was, he could only order awards to the dead pilots. The only living second lieutenant Sasaki directly became

Lieutenant Sasaki.

However, the rumor that "Sasaki went on an expedition while his colleagues were not able to grow a single blade of grass" was taken in the Army Air Corps. Lieutenant Sasaki was not given a military title. He should just be his pilot, but don't become a captain and kill the whole team.

Although he has killed the entire Army Aviation Squadron except himself!

However, not long after, His Excellency General Juichi Terauchi will regret his decision. Damn Sasaki is a super god of plague, especially after he became a lieutenant, his god of plague attributes seemed to have been enhanced.

The officers who wanted to kill him died one after another, but Lieutenant Sasaki was still alive and kicking around in the Army Air Force.

"Wouldn't it be nice if you didn't send me on a mission?" Sasaki kept expressing that he was aggrieved.

If I don’t kill you, all of you in Baga will be sorry for my predecessor. Any boss Sasaki has ever experienced should think so.

So, they soon became exes!

"Reporting to the group, Captain Li invited us all to attend his son's wedding banquet in ten years' time, and asked us to prepare red envelopes!" Cheng Tieshou suppressed a smile and made a serious report about Li Jiujin.

"Why are you sending out invitations so early?" Tang Dao couldn't help but feel happy. "Then why don't you treat me tonight? Just in time, I have this plan. I'll finish all the work in the group in the afternoon and give it to everyone.

During the annual holidays, except for the security troops, New Year's Eve and the first day of the Lunar New Year are included. If the other companies want to see Zhengzhou City, they can go to Zhengzhou City. I won't stop those who want to sleep in a hut!

However, ordinary officers and soldiers are not allowed to go out alone or in groups. If you want to go out, you must be led by the squad leader."

"Sir, you are wise!" Cheng Tieshou's big black face smiled like a black peony in full bloom.

Not only did Tang Dao want to give everyone a day off so that the officers and soldiers could go shopping in a big city like Zhengzhou, but more importantly, Tang Dao proposed that Mr. Li treat him.

"Sir, you know, my mouth is so hot! You know, I have wasted the money that I paid for my life. I'm afraid I won't be able to serve under your command in the future." Li Jijin cried sadly.

"Stupid, of course there has to be a reason for you to treat me. I remember my eldest nephew is almost three years old!" Tang Dao raised his eyebrows.

"Yes! Sir, do you want to celebrate my baby's third birthday by calling a group of uncles to celebrate it from a distance?" Li Jiujin is quite clever and can respond quickly.

"Hehe, usually when you treat guests, they only open their mouths. If you say that you are celebrating your baby's third birthday, they are all brothers of life and death. How dare they just open their mouths? Think about it?" Tang Dao continued to hate Tie Bu Cheng Gang's advice.

"Yes! Sir, you are right. I must invite this guest. Everyone in the regiment, including lieutenant and above, sends an invitation." Li Jijin patted his thigh.

It's like an enlightenment.

The current Si Xing Regiment is not the independent battalion of the past. In addition to the three infantry battalions and the company directly under the regiment headquarters, the company-level unit also has four departments below the staff headquarters. There are 21 company-level units, and there are only 50 officers above the lieutenant level.

There are also small 40's.

The awakened Li Jiujin is not an ordinary big-hearted person.

"I don't know if other people are embarrassed. Anyway, I spend all my money as soon as I have it. I'm afraid I can only open my mouth. No, maybe I still have a few silver brothers." He didn't say much.

Leng Feng who spoke said calmly.

Leng Feng is really not talking nonsense. Everyone knows that he is alone at the moment. This time he paid military pay and bonuses. In addition to keeping some cigarette money, he also gave Mrs. Yue ten yuan to buy New Year clothes for the third child.

It was left to the soldiers who died and were seriously injured and disabled under his command.

Facing such a person, who says he just opens his mouth, what can he say?

"Captain Leng is right! Those who have money will naturally give it to them, but those who have no money can only open their mouths. We are all brothers in life and death, so why don't you let your brothers eat?" Cheng Tieshou clapped his hands in great joy.

"Yes, yes, that's true." A group of officers collectively echoed.

Li Jijin was dumbfounded. Damn it, it's not scary if a person is shameless. What's scary is that a group of people are shameless.

"You're ignorant, just say that you will write down the gift list for everyone who gave gifts, and send it back to my sister-in-law. If you didn't give gifts, write down the names of those who didn't give gifts, and just open your mouth to indicate it later. Isn't that all?" Tang Daoyao said.

He shook his head and said a word before walking away: "That's it, let's meet at the Taibai Restaurant in Zhengzhou City in the evening. Li Jijin will be in charge of the wine and I will be in charge of the dishes. After you have eaten and drank enough, you can do whatever you like!"

"Long live sir!" A group of young officers couldn't help but cheer loudly.

It’s a man, everyone knows it!

Tang Dao is going to accompany those big businessmen. You can't just ignore them if they donate money, not to mention that he still has something to talk to those businessmen.

Li Jijin realized that Tang Dao was joking with him and only asked him to be responsible for the wine. It was completely within his tolerance, and it was only a matter of a few yuan.

But, after thinking about it again, I always felt that something was wrong.

"It's bad, sir, you want to wake up some people. When he got engaged, he was busy with military affairs and didn't treat guests, and some people didn't give gifts as a matter of course. He had already recorded some people in his notebook." Li Jiu

Jin Zhongcheng Tiedou blinked his eyes.

The group of people looked back with big eyes, especially the one from Cheng Tieshou who had been reminded of the important point.

What are you thinking about? My father-in-law, Tang Tuanzuo, has a lot of money in his family, and his own family also has a lot of extra money. Then he will be like you, an old man, thinking about gifts every day.

However, it seems not unreasonable. Anyway, no one is short of money nowadays. The officers present have made forty or fifty yuan at least, and some have hundreds, so there is no shortage of money!
