After reading the good news from the communications staff, the Chief of Staff responded exactly the same as Tan Minghui. He did not believe that Zhou Cheng was still alive, nor did he believe that the National Salvation Army could defeat the Japanese and puppet troops with more than 10,000 people in such a short time.

It was not until Tan Minghui asked to transfer the National Salvation Army that the Chief of Staff believed that Zhou Chengzhen did not die in Jinzhong County.

His face was instantly furious and realized that he had been fooled by the National Saving Army again.

But now, in order to make Zhou Cheng defend the Jinzhong County, the war zone had already given the medicines that promised to support the National Rescue Army. Even if he wanted to repent or take revenge on the National Rescue Army, he could not find any reason to threaten the National Rescue Army.

Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied the war zone is, it must endure it, and even send a commendation telegram to the national rescue army against their experience.

"Sir, Deputy Commander Tan Minghui failed in his operation. With Zhou Cheng's vindictive character, he will definitely not be able to stay in the National Salvation Army. Should we send someone to replace him?" The deputy chief of staff hesitated for a reminder.

"Switch it, but you must remind those who are preparing to take over Tan Minghui. After entering the National Salvation Army, you must be a turtle with a head-rejected turtle first and do not act rashly!"

"With this victory, the National Salvation Army will definitely become famous and its overall strength will become stronger and stronger. If our people have any abnormal movements that will cause Zhou Cheng to be dissatisfied and will be driven out of the National Salvation Army, it is not good to say anything when they are in the limelight!"

"So the newly appointed deputy regiment commander must learn to hide himself. Before receiving the operation order from the war zone, he only needs to keep an eye on the every move of the National Salvation Army and report it to the military headquarters as soon as possible if there is any situation!"

"As for the National Salvation Army and Zhou Cheng, after this victory, they have grown into a force that cannot be underestimated. Whether it is the Japanese or us, it is difficult for them to kill them in a short time!"

"But I think the Japanese will definitely not let the National Salvation Army go easily!"

"Compared with us, the Japanese have a deeper hatred for the National Salvation Army. They will definitely find ways to kill the National Salvation Army. Even if this major sweep is defeated, they will mobilize more troops to continue attacking the National Salvation Army until they avenge their previous shame."

"We were worried before that the Japanese were bribed the National Rescue Army. Now that the National Rescue Army has killed more than 10,000 Japanese and puppet troops, the Japanese are so worried that they will never tolerate such a big concern that they become their own people."

"So the National Salvation Army and the Japanese have become a life-and-death opponent, and there is absolutely no possibility of compromise between the two sides!"

"What we need to do is to watch the changes, slowly and slowly, and finally take advantage of the fisherman!"

The roar of the plane "Wengbu..." suddenly rang from far to near, and suddenly sounded over the calm.

As the sound became louder, more than a dozen black dots slowly appeared on the edge of the sky, becoming bigger and bigger, and finally turned into more than a dozen fake silver-white planes.

After entering the pacification, the planes quickly dispersed, three in groups, cruised back and forth along the ground, waiting for the signal smoke from the intelligence department!

"Sir, there is a signal smoke appearing three kilometers northeast!" A pilot suddenly shouted at the microphone.

"Let's kill you right away, first find out the target's identity, and then decide to throw a few bombs!" The Japanese captain who led the team immediately ordered.

The three planes quickly circled into the airspace where the signal smoke was located.

The signal smoke just now has now become three, separated by at least four hundred meters from each other.

Seeing this, the fool also knew that the ground intelligence personnel wanted them to bomb the middle area of ​​the three signal smoke.

But the captain did not immediately issue an attack order.

The driving continued to lower the flight altitude and almost caught the tree canopy from the bombing area to detect the enemy situation.

The strong wind from the plane not only swayed the trees left and right, but also blew away a lot of thatch and camouflage on the ground.

The moment the plane whizzed past the ground, the pilot's eyes never left the ground.

He saw with his own eyes a pile of thatched grass blowing away by the strong wind rolled up by the plane, revealing a long gun barrel.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen soldiers of the National Salvation Army rushed out around, each holding a bundle of thatched, rushed desperately towards the just-exposed cannon, and used the thatch to hide it again.

This change occurs very quickly and ends very quickly, only four or five seconds before and after.

But the captain was very sure that he had just seen the long gun barrels of the gun.

His eyes immediately became hot and he ordered decisively: "The target area hides an artillery unit, which is quite large! We immediately launch an attack, throw half of the bombs first, confirm the bombing effect, and then determine whether to throw the remaining bombs!"

"Speed ​​up, don't let this artillery unit slip away from our noses!"

After giving the order, the team leader controlled the plane again and rushed towards the target, holding the plane's joystick with both hands, pressing his thumb on the plane's bomb drop button, waiting for the best attack moment to arrive.

"Wong buzz..." The roar from the engine became louder and louder, and the fighter's flight speed became faster and faster.

When you are about to fly over the target, the pilot presses the bomb drop button without hesitation.

The plane's fuselage suddenly became lighter, and the two bombs quickly broke away from the fuselage and flew towards the ground with a scream.

As soon as the plane whistled past the target, a thunderous explosion sounded behind him, and thick smoke rose from the ground and soared into the sky.

The team leader did not specifically observe the results of the battle.

The power of the aviation bomb is very powerful, and even if the opponent hides thirty meters away from the bullet point, it is impossible to escape.

The two bombs just now happened to hit the center of the target. As long as the ground intelligence personnel released the signal smoke, the two bombs will definitely achieve considerable results.

The three planes completed the bombing mission ten minutes later, and a total of ten black smoke rose on the ground.

Because the aircraft has limited fuel and must destroy the next bombing target before returning, the captain flew the plane and began to search for the next bombing target as soon as he completed the bombing mission.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, all twelve aircraft dispatched by the Japanese army returned, and a total of 18 targets were encountered. Looking down from the air, the land was filled with rolling black smoke rising from the air.

Zhou Cheng hid in a ravine, five kilometers away from his closest bombing target.

With the help of the telescope, he could clearly see the scene after the target was bombed.

This is a fake target arranged by the guard battalion. The soldiers and artillery of the National Savior Army seen by the Japanese pilots were all fake.

After the bombing, a total of twelve bomb craters were blown out of the target position, and all the dummies and fake artillery arranged there by the guard battalion were destroyed.

If the bombing target just now really hid the National Salvation Army, they would definitely be hit by a devastating blow under the bombing of the Japanese.

As he looked at it, Chief of Staff Chen Zhengyu suddenly ran over with a very serious expression: "Captain, the losses that the Japanese bombed us just now have been counted!"

"The Japanese army dispatched twelve aircraft and bombed eighteen targets, fourteen of which were fake positions we set up, and four of them were real."

"After statistics, in the bombing just now, we had 356 soldiers died, 119 soldiers lost their combat effectiveness due to injuries, and also lost five field cannons, two heavy cannons, two mountain cannons, six mortars, 19 light and heavy machine guns, 298 rifles, 12 cars of baggage ammunition and 18 cars of food!"

"So much?" The loss far exceeded Zhou Cheng's expectations, and he couldn't help but exclaim after hearing this.

Chen Zhengyu nodded and comforted: "Captain, don't be angry. I think the loss is very little. After all, the Japanese dispatched 12 aircraft, each of which carries six aviation bombs, which totaled 72. If it were normal bombing and no fake targets shared most of the shells, our casualties would definitely exceed 2,000 people, and the weapons and ammunition and supplies would be several times more than the losses!"

Zhou Cheng refused to comment: "You are right, I am too greedy!"

"Last night we killed more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers and seized a large amount of spoils. We almost took all the benefits. It was reasonable and it was the Japanese who took some advantage of us."

"But no matter what, it is still heartbreaking for the troops to lose so much troops and weapons and equipment inexplicably. Next, we must do everything possible to reduce the losses that the Japanese army may bring to us!"

Chen Zhengyu immediately asked: "Captain, do you think the Japanese will continue to send planes to bomb us?"

"This is the only way they can take revenge on us immediately!" Zhou Cheng thought for a while and explained.

"It's daytime now. Our army has just won a big victory and seized a large amount of spoils, which greatly increased our marching burden. Last night, time was limited, so we couldn't move too far. Now it's daytime, so we must not marching rashly. In the eyes of the Japanese army, 80% of us are still hiding near the battlefield."

"If I were the commander of the Japanese army, I would definitely seize this opportunity and order the plane to search for us continuously and bomb us. If you can blow up a national rescue army, you will blow up one more. If you can destroy one cannon, you will destroy one more. You will consume the strength of the national rescue army at all costs and take revenge!"

Chen Zhengyu understood and suddenly realized his mind and replied: "I understand. Now I will contact all the troops and let them continue to arrange fake positions to eliminate the Japanese and puppet military spies operating around the troops, and strive for the Japanese planes to bomb us for the second time when the Japanese planes bombard us!"

In a small mountain village deep in the Taihang Mountains, after dawn, the village that had been quiet for a night became lively again.

The division command center stationed in the ancestral hall is no exception, with correspondent soldiers and combat staff constantly coming in and out.

The division commander ran into the political commissar with a smile on his face as soon as he walked in.

"Good news, commander!"

"Comrade Zhou Cheng deliberately concealed the news that he broke through from Jinzhong County, making the Japanese mistakenly believe that he had died in Jinzhong City. It was indeed to paralyze the Japanese army and make them underestimate the enemy for the National Salvation Army."

"Yesterday afternoon, the National Salvation Army blocked the Japanese and puppet troops in Zhujiazhuang, which was pacified, and consumed a large number of Japanese and puppet troops through layer by layer. It also divided the Japanese and puppet troops into two, resulting in the infantry and artillery troops providing artillery cover three kilometers away."

"After the Japanese planes had to evacuate the battlefield after it was dark, the main force of the National Salvation Army who broke through the Jinzhong County suddenly appeared around the Japanese artillery positions, connecting the frontal blocking troops to launch a counterattack on the Japanese and puppet troops. In less than two hours, the Japanese artillery troops were captured, severely damaged the attacking troops, and surrounded the remnants of the Japanese and puppet troops in the Zhujiazhuang area."

"After a few hours of bloody battle, the remnants of the Japanese and puppet troops were successfully eliminated, and all the sweeping troops entering the National Salvation Army Defense Zone were wiped out, and a complete victory was won!"

"Because the National Salvation Army also suffered heavy losses in the battle, it is urgent to make up for it and restore its combat effectiveness. Comrade Zhou Cheng sent a special telegram to ask the division headquarters to help monitor the movements of other Japanese and puppet troops in Shanxi to prevent them from mobilizing troops to attack the National Salvation Army Defense Zone for a second time!"

The teacher took the telegram and read it twice in a row before reacting from the excitement. Then he looked at the telegram again in comparison with the map, and then he smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Looking at the political commissar and chief of staff, he couldn't help but sigh: "Zhou Cheng fought beautifully in this battle. Since he decided to defend Jinzhong to the death, the Japanese and puppet troops were targeted by him, which shows that his vision of considering the problem is particularly long-term."

"Others are just looking forward one step, but he has done three steps!"

"I have decided that if Comrade Zhou Cheng has any new military operations in the future, our division headquarters will never interfere. It just needs to cooperate well!"

The political commissar agreed without hesitation: "I agree!"

The division commander continued to order: "As for monitoring the latest developments of the Japanese and puppet troops in Shanxi, this is originally the task of the division intelligence department. Political commissar, please give me special attention. As long as the Japanese and puppet troops reinforce the defense zone of the National Rescue Army, no matter how many people there are on the other side, they must report it as soon as possible and forward it to the National Rescue Army!"

The Japanese Army Headquarters in Shanxi, looking at the battle report sent by the aviation army, the serious expression on the Chief of Staff's face was obviously relieved a lot.

He walked quickly to the commander and reported: "Sir, all twelve aircraft dispatched by the aviation force early in the morning have returned."

"After confirmation, they bombed a total of eighteen targets, destroyed a large number of artillery and baggage ammunition, and also eliminated a large number of national rescue troops!"

"This is all seen by the pilot with his own eyes. After the bombing, the target area after the bombing was full of corpses of the National Savior Army who were killed, smashed artillery, destroyed ammunition and supplies trucks!"

"We estimate that during the bombing just now, the National Salvation Army lost more than 1,500 troops, and also lost no less than thirty artillery pieces and sixty chariots of baggage and ammunition!"

After hearing this, the commander's anger calmed down a lot. He took a deep breath and ordered.

"There are too few results."

"If I'm not wrong, plus the seizure, the various mountain artillery and heavy artillery equipped by the National Salvation Army should be no less than 60 pieces, and the seized of our baggage and ammunition should be no less than 200 vehicles. The bombing we just now was still early to complete the mission!"

"Order the aviation force to continue dispatching aircraft to bomb the National Salvation Army, and the intelligence department will cooperate with the darkness to end the bombing mission."

"While the National Rescue Army is still hiding around Zhujiazhuang, I will use planes and bombs to razor all suspicious targets there to the ground, severely damage the National Rescue Army, and avenge the warriors who died in battle."

"In addition, have the troops attacking Yangquan set out?"

The Chief of Staff replied while recording the order: "Please ask the Chief to defend the line, the offensive troops have set off by train for half an hour!"

The commander nodded and continued with a serious expression: "Very good, let them attack Yangquan County as soon as they get off the train."

"With the main force of the National Salvation Army being dragged by the aviation force to pacify Zhujiazhuang area, we must seize Yangquan before dark."
