Eighteenth Army Headquarters
"Lao Peng, Lao Peng, Lao Peng, great news."
The chief of general staff ran over in great excitement. He was so excited that he almost fell down when he started running.
The deputy commander looked at the actions of the chief of general staff and instantly guessed something.
He blurted out: "It must have been Xiao Wu who succeeded and severely damaged the Jaap's fleet."
"Lao Peng, Xiao Wu's record is so brilliant." The chief of general staff looked at the deputy commander-in-chief, "It's completely beyond our expectations."
"What's wrong? Could it be that Xiao Wu knocked down all the hundred planes of the little devil?" The deputy commander-in-chief looked shocked.
He and the Chief of General Staff expected that Wu Ze could severely damage the Japanese fleet, but it would be difficult to annihilate them all.
After all, weather is the unknown factor.
Secondly, the flying skills of Japanese pilots are not vegetarian.
If it was unexpected, it would be total annihilation.
"Yes." The chief of general staff nodded excitedly, "Xiao Wu shot down all one hundred Japanese planes, and none of them escaped."
boom!
After hearing this, the deputy commander slammed his fist on the table: "What a beautiful job. This moment is of extraordinary significance."
There are two levels of significance. First, the 18th Group Army has its own air defense force.
Second, Tojo Ichiro lost his plane. As long as the ammunition supply is cut off to him and the Jinsui Army continues to kill, the dawn of victory will belong to his side!
"Not only is it a great job," the Chief of General Staff continued to say excitedly, "What's even more commendable is that all of our thirty-six anti-aircraft guns are here, and none of them have been damaged..."
"What, none of our anti-aircraft guns were damaged!" The deputy commander was surprised again.
Not a single door was damaged, what does that mean?
This means that Xiao Wu's tactics of sneak attack on the Japanese aircraft did not have any flaws, and the thirty-six anti-aircraft guns also have the ability to directly fight the Japanese aircraft head-on, accumulating valuable combat experience.
"Yes, none of the thirty-six anti-aircraft guns was damaged. During the battle, only three people were slightly injured." The chief of general staff replied.
The reason why three people were injured was because a Japanese plane fell rapidly from the sky and exploded near an anti-aircraft gun.
There happened to be a team here. Although the team dodged in time, they were still affected by the explosion.
Fortunately, all three of them were only injured by the stones splashed by the explosion, so they can just recover.
"Incredible, this is simply incredible." The deputy commander was shocked again.
In the Battle of Fulu, although the anti-aircraft guns of the old Chiang Kai-shek's German gunnery division also shot down Japanese aircraft, the anti-aircraft guns of the German gunnery division suffered heavy losses, and they did not shoot down as many planes as before.
Obviously, if the tactics are used well, the 88 anti-aircraft gun is really a sharp weapon against Japanese aircraft, the sharp blade of the country!
"Xiao Wu is already preparing to deal with the Japs' mechanized troops. The 88 anti-aircraft guns have achieved amazing results against the Japs' aircraft. We can now wait and see about its anti-armor capabilities." The chief of general staff said expectantly.
"Haha." The deputy commander laughed, "I have a hunch that Xiao Wu will definitely win again."
"Yes, this is an 88mm caliber artillery. The little devil's tank armor capability will definitely not be able to withstand it." The chief of general staff nodded and said, "Now, I can pass the message to the Jinsui Army. "
"Yes, yes, yes." The deputy commander said yes three times in a row, and said: "Send power to Lao Yan immediately. We have killed the little devil's plane. He can start working over there, and our army can also I will cooperate with them and consume the ammunition of the Japanese and traitors."
"OK."
"That's right." The deputy commander remembered something and asked, "Has the anti-aircraft artillery instructor's family moved to our side?"
Now that the anti-aircraft artillery unit has made great achievements, Chiang Kai-shek will know that Zhang Jijun and others are definitely still alive.
The anti-aircraft artillery unit could shoot down the Japanese aircraft head-on, so Chiang Kai-shek would definitely make a fuss about Zhang Jijun's family.
"When they went to war, I sent people to move all their families to the rear areas." said the chief of general staff. "No one was left behind."
Fortunately, Wu Ze had done a good job with the smoke. After Zhang Jijun and others "sacrificed", Lao Jiang expressed condolences to their families, and then didn't pay much attention to them.
In this way, the operations of the Chief of General Staff became smoother.
"Well, now that Chiang Kai-shek wants to keep an eye on our anti-aircraft guns, we have confidence in our hearts." The deputy commander's heart dropped.

World War II District Governor's Department
"Sir Yan, Sir Yan, Sir Yan!"
A staff officer stumbled over and handed Lao Yan the newly arrived telegram: "A secret telegram from the 18th Army."
A secret message from the 18th Army? ! !
When Lao Yan heard this, his pupils shrank instantly. Could it be that... the 18th Army had packed up the Japanese fleet at this time?
On the other side of the mountain, although Lao Yan also sent scouts, there were a large number of Japanese and traitors, so the scope of the scouts' activities was limited.
It's hard to say whether we can detect the intelligence that the Japanese plane was packed up.
Now, the 18th Group Army sent a secret message. Could it be that they really succeeded?
Lao Yan took Midian's hand, trembling slightly.
Of course he expected the 18th Army to succeed.
Otherwise, he will just become a lost dog.
After waiting for so many days, Lao Yan's patience was almost gone.
After receiving the secret code and slowly opening it, Lao Yan took a deep breath and then lowered his gaze.
"Our unit has shot down a hundred Japanese planes. Commander Yan can proceed according to the original plan!"
Looking at the contents of the secret message, Lao Yan's eyes suddenly widened and rounded!
Shoot down a hundred planes! ! !
shoot down! ! !
One hundred! ! ! !
These two words gave Lao Yan a huge impact.
The first is this takedown and what it means.
This means that the 18th Army has anti-aircraft weapons.
Where did they get their anti-aircraft weapons? Where did they get their anti-aircraft weapons?
Even our Jinsui Army has no anti-aircraft weapons. How could his 18th Army have such weapons?
Then, a hundred Japanese planes were shot down.
Doesn't this mean that the 18th Army destroyed all Yoshio Shinozuka's planes? ! !
This is too incredible.
Lao Yan deeply understands how ferocious this little devil's plane is.
They are like tigers with wings in the sky, showing off their power and arrogance.
As soon as they appear in the sky, the troops on the ground can only be passively beaten and have no choice but to resign themselves to their fate.
And now, all one hundred planes have been destroyed! ! !
Are all these planes stupid?
Did they hit the muzzles of the 18th Army's anti-aircraft weapons on their own?
Because only if they commit suicide can the Eighteenth Army be able to annihilate them all.
Otherwise...if I beat Lao Yan to death, Lao Yan won't believe it either!
"How is this possible, how is this possible, how can I possibly..." Lao Yan kept muttering in his mouth.
Although, this secret message contained the information he was expecting in his mind.
However, he couldn't believe it at all.
"Sir Yan, can I take a look?" The staff officer couldn't help but asked when he saw Lao Yan being so horrified.
"Look." Lao Yan handed him the secret message.
After the staff officer saw it, he was also extremely stunned: "This, this, this, this is too unbelievable. The 18th Army was able to shoot down a hundred Japanese aircraft head-on. How is it possible?"
But soon, the staff officer remembered something, and he said to Lao Yan: "Sir Yan, I remembered some clues, I don't know..."
"Speak quickly!" Lao Yan quickly interrupted the staff officer.
He knew that the Eighteenth Army was determined not to joke with him casually in the secret message.
After all, Lao Yan is not stupid, he also has his own intelligence system.
Lao Yan would not be able to act easily without letting his own intelligence system verify such critical information.
"Sir Yan, do you still remember? A few months ago, the 18th Group Army asked the director of the park for an anti-aircraft gun instructor." The staff reminded, "It is better for us to help send the anti-aircraft gun instructor..."
Before the staff officer finished speaking, Lao Yan paused and said, "Didn't the anti-aircraft artillery instructor fall into the hands of the Japanese..."
When Lao Yan said this, he immediately paused again and understood: "I know, they did not fall into the hands of the Japanese. This should be the 18th Army's deliberate attempt to confuse the public. They are all still alive. But, but, even the first The 18th Army can get anti-aircraft artillery instructors, but where can they get the anti-aircraft weapons?"
"Sir Yan, I don't know if you still remember that a unit of the Eighteenth Group Army once looted the Japanese army column on the Zhengtai Line. They got a large number of machine tools from it. Rumor has it that they also got some semi-finished air defense equipment. Artillery weapons..." The staff officer did not finish his words.
"Oh my God." Lao Yan was shocked and suddenly realized: "Did the Eighteenth Army assemble these semi-finished anti-aircraft artillery weapons into finished products, and then let them form combat effectiveness? This is simply unbelievable. The military industry of the Eighteenth Army Conditions, they even struggle to produce bullets, how can they assemble semi-finished anti-aircraft guns into finished products!"
"Sir Yan, didn't I tell you that they also got a large number of machine tools from the military. Maybe they rely on these machine tools..." the staff officer said.
The staff officer's words were interrupted again by Lao Yan: "Even if you have machine tools, you must have technology. Those are the Japanese imitations of country D's air defense weapons. The Eighteenth Group Army has no technology, and just machine tools and machines can't do it." It’s possible to assemble semi-finished products into finished products in just a few months.”
"Sir Yan, I don't believe that the Eighteenth Army can do it, but..." the staff officer looked at Lao Yan, "The strategic master of the Eighteenth Army is a miracle worker. Maybe this time has something to do with him. .”
"We have intelligence personnel at Taiyuan Airport, right?" Lao Yan suddenly stared at the staff officer.
"Sir Yan, there are no people of ours at Taiyuan Airport. The Japanese have strengthened the defense of the airport and have evacuated all the Chinese at the airport..." the staff officer said.
"What I mean is that there are our intelligence personnel outside Taiyuan Airport." Lao Yan said.
"Yes." The staff officer nodded.
"Contact them immediately and ask them if they saw all 100 Japanese planes flying out today." Old Yan said solemnly, "Also, ask them to watch the sky carefully to see if any of the 100 planes came back before dark. !”
Although, Lao Yan's intelligence personnel cannot sneak into the airport.
But looking at the sky outside the airport, there is still no problem.
You can observe the little devil's plane flying back and forth.
As long as the intelligence personnel saw the Japs' plane flying out and not coming back after dark, then... the 18th Group Army might have really shot them all down.
"Yes." The staff officer nodded.
"Also, give the intelligence department an order to monitor the Japanese intelligence." Lao Yan added, "If all one hundred planes are really shot down by the 18th Group Army, the intelligence department of the Japanese will definitely If there is any news about the flaw, please report it to me immediately."
Although Lao Yan obtained the secret message from the 18th Group Army, he was suspicious and had to take a two-pronged approach and let his intelligence department verify it.
"Yes." The staff officer ran away quickly.
The staff officer left, and Lao Yan stood up from his chair and paced back and forth in the room.
Although his intelligence department has not yet confirmed the information that all one hundred Japanese aircraft were shot down, he has a hunch that this may be true.
This time, he doesn't have to be a lost dog and can win again.
After rubbing his hands and walking around the room for more than a dozen times, Lao Yan picked up the phone and said, "Give me the answer."
"Sir Yan." The call came through quickly, and Bo Zuoyi's voice came out.
"Bo Zuoyi, I just received a secret message from the 18th Group Army. Please be prepared for me." Lao Yan said excitedly, "When I contact you again, you will immediately follow the original plan." I attack."
"Sir Yan, could it be..." Bo Zuoyi was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that the 18th Group Army really wiped out the Japanese fleet? How did they do it?
"Bo Zuoyi, get ready and prepare for a big fight." After finishing speaking, Lao Yan hung up the phone.
Then, Lao Yan continued to rub his hands and walked around the room.
He even started to giggle. If he succeeded this time, he would ask the director of Yamacheng for something.

Taiyuan First Army Headquarters
"General, according to intelligence, Lao Yan's Jinsui Army is still ready for battle." Moriyama Otani reported to Lao Yan Hui.
Although Tojo Ichiro's operation to encircle and suppress the 18th Group Army was temporarily successful, the First Army still had to help and keep an eye on Tojo Ichiro's rear as much as possible.
"This damn old Yan, is he bluffing or is he really waiting for information from the 18th Army?" Shinozuka Yoshio was angry and nervous after hearing this.
Although, all one hundred planes are there.
He is personally keeping an eye on the logistics supply of Tojo Ichiro's army, and up to now, there is nothing abnormal.
However, the Jinsui Army was ready for battle, which was like a thorn in Yoshio Shinozuka's throat.
If it weren't for the current shortage of troops in the First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka would have really wanted to send troops to attack immediately.
"General, the 18th Group Army is determined not to be a match for General Tojo. We'd better stay calm..." Moriyama Otani didn't finish his words.
A voice sounded like a butchered pig: "General, general, general, it's not going well, something serious is going to go wrong."
Moriyama Otani looked over and saw the telecommunications officer from the intelligence department stumbling over, his expression extremely nervous.
Seeing this state, Yoshio Shinozuka's heart suddenly tightened.
Could it be that something went wrong on Tojo Ichiro's side?
Could it be that Lao Yan was really not bluffing?
Yoshio Shinozuka grabbed the information from the telecommunications officer and looked at the contents, his eyes instantly opened as big as eggs.
The telegram was sent back by Miyano Michichi himself. Miyano Michichi said in the telegram that all one hundred aircraft were shot down by the 18th Army's anti-aircraft guns.
Tojo Ichiro asked Yoshio Shinozuka to guard the logistics and not make any mistakes again.
"This, this, this, this is impossible!" Shinozuka Yoshio's eyes were completely split.
One hundred planes were shot down by the anti-aircraft artillery of the 18th Army. A group of farmers could not even equip the most basic manpower with a gun. Their regular army only had a few bullets per person on average.
How can such a poor and backward rabble get anti-aircraft guns?
To put it lightly, even if you give them anti-aircraft guns, will they use them?
Pooh!
However, the handwriting on this telegram clearly stated that the 18th Group Army shot down the plane with anti-aircraft artillery, and also shot down all one hundred planes! ! !
This joke is not funny at all.
Moriyama Otani looked over and was extremely surprised for a moment: "Could it be that Chief of Staff Miyano's hands were shaking when generating electricity and he sent the wrong message?"
"Moriyama-kun, Miyano-kun is the chief of staff and also a senior intelligence officer of the empire. How could you make such a ridiculous mistake..." The telegraph official did not finish.
Shinozuka Yoshio interrupted with a roar: "Baga, Miyano Michichi must have sent the wrong telegram. Go check it with me right away. Get out of here!"
Facing Yoshio Shinozuka's roar, the telecommunications officer knew that Yoshio Shinozuka could not accept the fact that all one hundred planes were shot down.
In fact, even now, the telecommunications officer still doesn't believe that the farmers in the 18th Army can't even buy the most basic guns. How can they have a strong air defense force?
The telecommunications officer suppressed his doubts very wisely. These things could only be handed over to the intelligence department for investigation.
As a telecommunications officer, he could only go back and reconfirm the information with Miyano Michichi and execute Shinozuka Yoshio's order.
The telecommunications officer was kicked out. Moriyama Otani and Shinozuka Yoshio didn't speak for a long time. The atmosphere in the room was extremely depressed.
One hundred planes were shot down head-on. Anyone else would not be able to accept it in a short time.
After a long while, Yoshio Shinozuka seemed to come to life. He roared again: "Where did the 18th Army get the anti-aircraft guns? Could it be that they assembled the thirty-six 88 anti-aircraft guns that they looted from the army in the past and then formed them?" Combat capability? Do they have this ability? I’m afraid they can’t even make the most basic artillery shells. They don’t deserve it, they don’t deserve it!”
"General, as for how the 18th Army has air defense forces, we can only order the intelligence department to investigate for the time being. We can't waste our energy on this." Moriyama Otani advised, "A hundred aircraft are gone. Now If the Eighteenth Army wants to make a comeback, its only chance is to attack our logistics supply to Ichiro Tojo’s army. We..."
Before Moriyama Otani finished speaking, Shinozuka Yoshio jumped to his feet with red eyes: "Impossible, the Tachina people want to attack our logistics supply to the Tojo Army. This is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"General..." Moriyama Otani still wanted to say something.
Yoshio Shinozuka interrupted: "Let's go and check again now. I want round-the-clock supervision. Even if it is a mouse, it is a dream to get close to the logistics transportation!"
One hundred planes were destroyed, and Yoshio Shinozuka instantly felt tremendous pressure on him.
Logistics supply is now the most critical link, and there must be no mistakes.
"Hai." Moriyama Otani nodded and quickly followed Yoshio Shinozuka out of the headquarters.
