All in all, when the cadets of the 14th Brigade set out on their journey again, they had spent more than thirty hours marching since they began to advance towards Siocon. Flying
This is almost unimaginable to Americans - a thirty-hour journey, with more than twenty-seven hours of walking on rugged mountain roads, what kind of perseverance does this require? For Xiao Anbao, the fighter plane is the way to go.
Yes, as long as a few brothers can be saved from death, it will be worth traveling an extra 100 kilometers on the mountain road.
This heavy rain can really be called the savior of the Americans. As soon as the rain stopped, the Western Expedition Fleet headquarters on the "Ryujo" aircraft carrier sent a telegram to the Omura Wing, saying that the Kisarazu Air Force would arrive in forty minutes.
Flying to the battlefield to provide support, let the Xiaocun Regiment prepare for battle and order them to take Sibuko before dark. The Xiaocun Regiment's radio station and telecommunications code book have been seized by the 14th Brigade.
Under the instruction, a victory telegram sent in the name of Ichiro Komura was quickly sent to Koizumi's office. After hearing Hatano read the telegram, Koizumi breathed a sigh of relief and called out to Yamabe who was about to leave.
Kawa Sankey, in a good mood, said to him: "Ichiro Omura did not disappoint me, so let's continue searching for the Chinese troops that broke out from Ipil. Yamabe-kun, we must find them before dark, can you do it?"
"
Yamabe said "Hai", saluted and left.
A few minutes later, a large group of Zero Fighters, led by Yamabe, took off from the sky and immediately flew towards Siocon.
At about 3:40, six kilometers southeast of Sibuko, on the only mountain road leading to Sibuko from the outside world, cadets from the 14th Brigade wearing military uniforms of the small village regiment and armed with Type 15 semi-automatic rifles were approaching
A thousand Filipinos escorted the Americans and advanced slowly. Suddenly, the "whirring" sound of fighter jet engines came from the northeast, and the Americans collectively changed their colors, and their hunched waist suddenly straightened up.
They stood straight and raised their heads to look at the sky in the northeast. Many people's eyes showed expressions of fear.
In stark contrast to the panicked expressions of the Americans, the cadets behaved quite calmly. They just turned their heads and glanced, and then did what they were supposed to do. They continued to move forward in an orderly manner, occasionally using their guns.
Poke the Americans around you who want to sit down and drive them away quickly.
Long-distance marching is a very boring thing. The American soldiers of the 61st Division and 81st Division were okay. After all, they had a day and a half of rest in Sibuco, which preserved their physical strength very well. As for the 101st Division,
For the American soldiers, including Douglas, the legs of each of them seemed to be filled with lead, and they had to support each other to move forward, like a group of defeated soldiers. Of course, when a Zero Fighter was about to fly
When it hits their heads, they feel as if a needle has been poked in their butts, and they immediately become "vibrant".
Sharp, Douglas, Malunan, Du Dickson and others walked together with Xiao Anbao and other cadets from the 14th Brigade Headquarters. Xiao Anbao was wearing a colonel uniform with a serious expression. At first glance, he looked like a Japanese junior officer. I noticed.
Seeing the strange behavior of the American soldier, he frowned and said to Sharp: "What's going on? Just now, all of them were crestfallen and looked like prisoners. Why now, when the little devil's fighter plane comes, they seem to have been injected with chicken blood? Tell them,
Just keep your original posture - a prisoner should look like a prisoner. The key to whether we can escape is during the day, so we must not let the Japanese see any flaws!"
In Sharp's view, Xiao Anbao and Li Daitao were killed, and it was a clever plan to have his men disguise themselves as Japanese. Sibuco is only 90 kilometers away from Ipil. Because they can march on the road openly, the marching speed is guaranteed, so in theory
It only takes about fifteen hours at most to reach Ipil. The Japanese troops added to Ipil are still affiliated with the 4th Division. With the deterrent power of the Xuebing Army against the 4th Division, if they can catch them off guard
If so, then there is absolutely no problem in breaking through the Li-Yi blockade. And the key to achieving this goal is to hide it from the Japanese.
If Xiao Anbao's impression on Sharp at first was only "brave", now he is "wisdom and brave", a handsome man and not just a general.
He did it without hesitation, and cursed so loudly that all the American soldiers lowered their heads in shame. From the perspective of the Japanese airmen who flew the Zero Fighter over their heads, these Americans were just a bunch of unlucky people.
The prisoners had no doubt that the so-called imperial troops below were actually their enemies in disguise.
Yamabekawa Sankan also flew over the team in the Zero Battle at low altitude, and because he had learned from his subordinates that "the useless and useless division finally won the battle", he also did not doubt the following "
"Imperial Army", after flying around the army to show respect, they flew towards Zamboanga.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, as the sky gradually darkened, the Kisarazu Air Force finally stopped searching. Then, including Koizumi, the Japanese senior officials on the Ryujo aircraft carrier fleet couldn't help but wonder - are the Chinese people born in the year of rats?
Did they go into a cave? Otherwise, where did they go? A group of Japs gathered in Koizumi's office and had a heated discussion. Finally, Koizumi made the final decision and proposed to find this trainee at all costs.
Then, he set up a "special search team" headed by himself and decided to find this trainee by installing telecommunications signal detection equipment on Zero War.
That night, the mechanics of Kisarazu Air Force worked all night to install this equipment on five Zero Fighters. At the same time, Koizumi issued an order ordering the garrisons stationed west of Pagadian to implement radio silence from 5 a.m. every day.
, to cooperate with the search operations of the "Special Search Team".
At the same time, just when Koizumi was tossing and turning with anxiety over the thorn in his side of the 14th Brigade, Ouyang Yun, the Expeditionary Aviation Corps Headquarters in Chongzuo, Guangxi, met with Song, the commander of the 206th Division, who was originally part of the Central Army.
Yi Yixing.
When Song Yi Zi Chongzuo fell into the scheme of the Xuebing Army and was forced to join the Xuebing Army, he had a premonition that the Xuebing Army would take Guangxi into its hands sooner or later. However, when he received a call from Chongqing, he learned that the Chongqing government would
When Guangxi was included in the Xuebing Military Defense Area, he was still shocked.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Chongqing government's move was a theater adjustment for the overall anti-Japanese war; but in the eyes of those who know the truth, such as Song Yi, they know that this is a major victory in the game between the Xuebing Army and the Central Army.
After experiencing this incident, they were sensitive to the meaning behind it, so they were all shocked by the strength shown by Xuebingjun.
If Song Yi was only forced to join the Xuebing Army due to the situation at the beginning, after realizing this, even if he had other ideas in his heart, he did not dare to think about it. The situation was stronger than the person, and at this time, he still had other ideas.
Jumping out to block the Xuebingjun's chariot, what's the difference between using a mantis' arm to block the chariot?
Therefore, Ouyang Yun's transit through Guangxi was actually intended to go to Karachi, but it had the effect of frightening the local area and winning over people's hearts.
The small tree Xuebingjun has slowly spread its branches and leaves, gradually taking on the appearance of a giant tree that reaches the sky.
