The gate of Wusu Airport.

Seeing the Second Independent Regiment launching a general offensive, Hideki Miyamoto immediately organized the remaining troops and relied on the nearby ruins to mount a resistance.

"Tu tu tu tu!"

“Pah, pah, pah, pah!—”

A dense rain of bullets poured in, hitting the front armor of several Type 97 medium tanks, splashing clusters of sparks.

Unfortunately, the attacks from rifles and light machine guns are like scratching an itch and cannot harm the tank at all.

On the contrary, the position was exposed due to the firing, and the rain of bullets poured out from the tank's heavy machine gun turned it into a hornet's nest.

Several machine gun firepower points were also bombarded by tank guns one after another. After a "boom" explosion, the Japanese machine gunners were blown away with their guns.

200 meters.

100 meters.

50 meters…

Amidst the fierce gunfire, several Type 97 medium tanks covered the infantry in the rear and kept advancing.

Just as they were approaching the gate, several Japanese death squads wearing white shirts and tied with bloody scarves on their heads suddenly rushed out screaming.

"His Majesty the Emperor is onboard!"

"The Empire of Japan is onboard!"

"The Imperial Japanese Army is on board!——"

With ferocious looks on their faces, they ignited the explosive packs tied to their bodies and flew towards the oncoming tanks.

Unfortunately, the Japanese's infantry-tank coordination may be much stronger than that of the Eighth Route Army, but they have little experience in using explosive charges to destroy tanks.

Before these Japanese death squads could get close to the approaching tanks, their bodies were pierced by a dense rain of bullets, and they fell to the ground screaming one after another.

A few seconds later, the explosive bags on them exploded one after another.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom, boom! -"

The 5-kilogram explosive package is not due to shrapnel, so its effective killing radius may not be as good as that of the Type 92 Infantry Cannon shells, but its absolute killing radius is definitely much larger than that of the Type 92 Infantry Cannon shells.

There is no other reason, there is a lot of explosives!

In the explosion and fire, these Japanese death squads were blown to pieces, with their broken flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Some nearby Japanese soldiers were affected, either vomiting blood due to the shock wave, or were directly shocked to death on the spot.

"Baga!" Seeing this scene, Hideki Miyamoto's face suddenly turned ugly. He knew that he was screwed.

The reality was just as he expected. Without the threat of suicide bombers from suicide squads, the tank convoy of the Second Independent Regiment traveled unimpeded and easily entered the airport.

Although the Japs from the Security Brigade and the 1st Flying Battalion were still trying their best to resist, it was just a mantis trying to trick the enemy.

Facing the independent Second Regiment's army that was swarming in like a wave, the remaining Japanese army was unable to resist and was forced to fight and retreat into the airport.

But this only delays the time of death a little, nothing more.

Because the entire airport has only one exit, the main gate, and mines are deployed in other areas. Unless they can fly, they are doomed.

"Brothers, charge and kill! Kill all these Japanese sons of bitches!"

Xu Hailang, Tian Shuisheng, Wang Shugen and others led the main force of the Second Independent Regiment and charged and fought all the way without giving the remaining Japanese soldiers any chance to breathe.

Amidst the fierce gunfire, Japanese soldiers were continuously shot in the body, screaming and falling into a pool of blood.

Massacre, the battle is destined to become a one-sided massacre from this moment on!

As for Wang Chengzhu, after covering the main force entering the airport, he led a convoy of tanks and headed straight for the tarmac.

Although the previous bombardment by the artillery battalion destroyed many Japanese aircraft, there were still some aircraft that were not destroyed.

However, due to the destruction of the runway, these aircraft can no longer take off, just like a group of toothless tigers...

In a field filled with rice two kilometers away from the airport.

Kobayashi Koichi, the captain of the airport security brigade, watched the main force of the Second Independent Regiment rush into the airport in a destructive manner. His face suddenly became extremely ugly, as if his parents were dead.

The squadron captain next to him asked for instructions: "Captain, what should we do now? Should we return to the airport to support us?"

Kobayashi gritted his teeth and said: "The main force of China Tubal Road is at least a thousand people, but we only have a few dozen people. Returning to the airport now will not solve any problem except to die."

Kobayashi Koichi seemed worried that his subordinates would say that he was afraid of death. He paused, then changed the topic and continued: "Of course, I am not afraid of death. It is our highest honor to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan.

As a member of the Imperial Japanese Army, when I took off my civilian clothes, handed over my personal belongings, and put on this military uniform, I was ready to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.

However, there is no need for us to make unnecessary sacrifices. Returning to the airport now is just a show of courage.

Therefore, we might as well stay useful and serve His Majesty the Emperor better."

Kobayashi Koichi's description of his greed for life and fear of death was fresh and refined, and his justice was awe-inspiring.

However, it spoke to the hearts of the surrounding Japanese soldiers.

It's still the same truth. Although the Japanese are not afraid of death, they definitely don't want to die in vain. Their death is worthless.

The captain then asked again: "Captain, what should we do now?"

Kobayashi Koichi thought for a while and said: "The airport was attacked. Commander Yoshio Shinozuka must have sent reinforcements. We will now withdraw towards Taiyuan City, join forces with the reinforcements, inform them of the situation here, and then reinforce together."

Airport."

All the Japs agreed with the decision of Captain Kobayashi Koichi, and then followed him towards Taiyuan City and disappeared deep into Baomi.

The other side.

Norihide Abe, the Lieutenant General of the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade, who is known as an expert in mountain warfare and known as the "Flower of Famous Generals", led the main force out of the city and went straight to Takesu Airport.

They had just gone three or four kilometers when they discovered the vanguard unit, the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Independent Infantry Regiment, which was fighting the Eighth Route Army blocking force.

When Haruhiro Okamoto, the captain of the Young Zuo Battalion who was directing the operations, saw the main force of the brigade, he immediately rushed towards them like a child seeing his parents when being bullied outside.

Haruhiro Okamoto found the brigade commander Abe Norihide and immediately greeted him respectfully: "Your Excellency, brigade commander!"

Abe Norihide said expressionlessly: "What's going on ahead?"

Okamoto Haruhiro answered truthfully: "Our unit was blocked by the main force of the Eighth Route Army here."

Abu Guixiu asked again: "The main force of the Eighth Route Army? How many people do they have?"

Okamoto Haruhiro did not dare to look directly at Abe Norihide's almost cannibalistic gaze, lowered his head and responded: "The strength of this Eighth Route Army is at least more than a regiment."

"Baga!"

Norihide Abe shouted sharply, and Haruhiro Okamoto trembled with fright and almost fell to the ground.

Abe Norihide added: "A large group of imperial troops was blocked by a regiment of the Eighth Route Army for half an hour. You really disappoint me!"
