Chapter 43-Helping Teng County
"We are from the 44th division's Army Air Parachute Battalion requesting to land!”The huge transport aircraft in the sky carried more than 400 fully armed soldiers and rushed to the sky above Teng County to call out to the Teng County garrison.
"Thank goodness someone finally came to reinforce us! And it was the famous 44th Division! Clear a runway in the city immediately!”The highest ranking officer guarding Teng County, Officer Wang, let out a sigh of relief. At the same time, he ordered the troops to immediately clear an airstrip.
Ten transport planes landed at Teng County's temporary airport one after another. A group of soldiers dressed in German military uniforms walked out in an orderly manner. The leader was a major of a clone officer. The paratroopers were all clone soldiers. Due to the lack of time to train the paratroopers, they could only recruit clone soldiers systematically. The original plan was to switch to airdrop if they could not land. However, the Japanese did not expect that there would be paratroopers. That was why the paratroopers were able to land successfully.
"My goodness! This equipment was even better than the Central Army! Each squad had a light machine gun and two fancy traps!”A lieutenant colonel from the Sichuan Army said enviously as he looked at the firepower of the 44th Division, which was about to surpass his entire battalion.
"Look! A company had two 60mm mortars! There was also a heavy machine gun! There's really no way to compare!" A Sichuan major shook his head.
"80-caliber mortar! Six! Look at the 20 cannons and 37mm cannons!”After continuously moving out the weapons and equipment of the transport planes, the Sichuan soldiers were really envious.
"Thank you for your help! On behalf of all the soldiers in Teng County, I express my gratitude!”Officer Wang personally greeted the commander of the Parachute Battalion.
"General Wang is too polite. We are also following orders. It is our honor to be able to help your department!”the commander of the paratroop battalion said politely.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A Japanese artillery unit was bombarding Teng County. After a short exchange of greetings, the two began to arrange the garrison.
"Weng weng weng!" More than 20 Japanese bomber planes were heading towards Teng County arrogantly, and there were only six fighter planes escorting them. They really did not take the Chinese Air Force seriously.
The 30 fighter jets of the 44th division's Army Air Force, which had just arrived from Xuzhou, swooped down from the clouds. These fighter jets were all BF109 fighter jets from the German Air Force during World War II. Against the Japanese old-fashioned bomber and escort aircraft, they were like junior high school students using a spiked club to hammer primary school students.
Da da! Da da!
After a battle in the air, more than half of the Japanese bomber fighters were killed. They turned around and fled. After driving away the Japanese planes, the 30 BF109 fighters did not stay idle. After wreaking havoc in the Japanese artillery positions, they left, making the Japanese soldiers gnash their teeth in hatred!
"Long live! Long live!"
Teng County's defenders all shouted long live to express their feelings at this time. This was the first time they had fought such a battle so happily, but the Japanese army's revenge soon came. The three battalions were divided into three directions and lined up to attack Teng County.
When the Japanese army approached, they were bombarded by mortars, and many people were killed or injured. The Japanese army did not expect that a small Chinese army would have 80mm mortars and some 60mm mortars. This made the Japanese army unable to use their 45mm hand cannons.
They pushed the 70mm infantry cannons forward step by step, but the 70mm infantry cannons had limited lethality against the sturdy walls of Teng County. Moreover, as long as they got too close and were seen by the garrison artillery observers, several 80mm incendiary bombs would immediately fly over, making the Japanese army, who usually ran amok, feel a headache.
"Suosi, give it!" A Japanese lieutenant organized a small death squad to attack the position. Under the hellish firepower, more than 60 Japanese soldiers were killed on the position. The Japanese had to retreat and reorganize their formation to continue attacking.
Rumble! Rumble!
During the second attack of the Japanese army, a Type 97 medium tank appeared. This tank had only been installed in Japan in 1938. They never expected it to appear on the Chinese battlefield so quickly. Moreover, there were 16 Type 97 medium tanks in one go. Although this kind of weight was considered light in the West, it was considered medium in Japan.
16 Type 97 tanks accompanied by two battalions of Japanese soldiers began to attack in one direction. It seemed that they were ready to take down Teng County.
The Type 97 tank could not withstand close range artillery fire with a caliber of 14mm and above. However, if it were to hide 500 meters away and use its 57mm cannon and machine gun to deal with the defenders in the city, it would not be easy to defeat it. It could only pull out its 37mm anti-tank cannon. A 37mm anti-tank cannon from 500 meters away was enough to send the Type 97 tank away, but the prerequisite was that it had to be accurate and not be killed by its 57mm cannon.
A Japanese youth with a JG mentality was wearing a lieutenant general's military uniform and looking at China's land arrogantly, as if he could occupy it! It seemed that this guy was a Japanese player. Otherwise, it was almost impossible for a person to be promoted to lieutenant general before the age of 50 in Japan. Moreover, this guy looked less than 30 years old.
"Brother Mo! Brother Mo! Are you there?" Yuan Jiajun called out to Zhang Modao in the video call. Now, the two of them were brothers.
"Yes! Here! What's wrong?" Zhang Mo turned on the emergency communication device.
"The Japanese players have arrived in Shandong! I saw that they have already started producing Type 97 tanks! He really didn't know how his military merits rose so quickly! I'm still a lieutenant!" Yuan Jiajun asked in confusion.
"He must have received help from the Japanese NPC! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to develop so quickly! Also, since you have Japanese equipment, you should focus on developing the navy in the future! No matter what, Japan's navy is still very strong. They can still compete with the United States and the United Kingdom on the ocean. The most powerful equipment in the German navy that I have is the submarine. The powerful battleships and Zeppelin aircraft carriers can only be unlocked by the fucking admiral! So my navy is basically useless! That is why I am fully focused on developing the German army and air force!”Zhang Mo and Yuan Jiajun, one developing the army and air force, the other fully developing the navy!
"Yes! I can't compare to you in strategy, so I'll listen to you! As long as he could obtain victory, it would be fine!”Yuan Jiajun said without any objections.
"Don't worry! The final victory will definitely be ours!”Zhang Mo replied domineeringly.
"Then I'll hang up first! He still had to kill bandits and earn some military merits! Until now, they couldn't even build a destroyer!”Yuan Jiajun hung up helplessly.
