The shells flew into the sky and exploded near the Japanese planes. Countless shrapnel flew in the sky, forming a huge space of debris.

The dive-deep Japanese bomber crashed into the barrage of bullets. The thin iron sheet of the Japanese bomber was no match for the shrapnel.

In just a moment, 13 of the 6 Japanese planes were blown up in mid-air, and the remaining planes desperately pulled up amid the Japanese pilots' screams and howls.

How could Zheng Dapao give the Japs a chance to advance? The soldiers of the anti-aircraft regiment were constantly loading shells.

They were afraid that their speed would be too slow and the enemy planes would escape.

The second round, the third round... countless shells formed a shrapnel space at 500 to 1000 meters.

The Japanese plane was surrounded by countless shrapnel before it could even take off.

Soon after the remaining seven planes began to emit black smoke, they were dismembered by other shrapnel, and steel rain began to fall from the sky.

In just 5 minutes, the anti-aircraft regiment fired more than 300 shells, and all the Japanese flying regiments were shot down, without any escape.

The crisis was resolved before the people in Mengbao City, who were hiding in their homes because of the air raid alarm, could react.

Some brave people even climbed onto their own roofs to witness this fierce air defense battle.

When all the Japanese planes were blown up, the civilians who were watching from the rooftops started shouting,

"The Japanese plane was blown up, all the Japanese were killed!"

"Good fight, the Japs deserve to die!"

The industrial zone is just west of the city. People in the city have only seen the Japanese planes twice before. Every time the Japanese planes came, they would drop a few shells on their way back to the city. Many people in the city have a trauma against the Japanese planes.

When the air raid alarm sounded this time, everyone in the city was in a panic. It was the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment who were maintaining order in the city who shouted,

The common people only knew that the Eighth Route Army was going to shoot down the enemy's planes, and some fearless people climbed onto the roofs to watch secretly, not because they wanted to watch the fun, but because they did not quite believe it.

The common people all knew how powerful the Japanese planes were. When the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was fighting the Japanese in Suiyuan West, they were blown to pieces by the Japanese planes and were soon driven further west by the Japanese.

This time, the Eighth Route Army said they would shoot down the enemy's planes, but the common people didn't quite believe it. Everyone had heard that the Eighth Route Army could fight, but it was a bit ridiculous to say that they could shoot down the enemy's planes.

If the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army couldn’t defeat them, how could the Eighth Route Army, with their few broken guns, defeat them?

You won't know until you see it. You'll be shocked when you see it. The Japanese plane just rushed down from the sky and was blown up by the Eighth Route Army before it dropped its bombs. This is too powerful.

Now the people in the city realized how powerful this Eighth Route Army was.

Zheng Dapao looked at his soldiers with satisfaction. If he had these weapons and soldiers earlier, how would the Japanese planes dare to fly recklessly in the Chinese sky.

The soldiers of the air defense regiment cheered loudly, especially the newly formed Second Regiment. It was their first time on the battlefield, and they didn't expect to shoot down a plane on the first try.

Ten miles west of the city, Zheng Jin, the chief of staff of the 35th Army of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army, was heading towards Mengbao under the protection of Wu Jinjue, the commander of the 114st Regiment of the th Division.

Since military action could not take Mengbao, negotiations were naturally necessary. Sui Province was the base of the 35th Army, and there was no reason to allow the Eighth Route Army Independent Brigade to occupy it.

The person who led them was Chen Zhen, the company commander of the first company of the third battalion of the third regiment. When the air raid alarm sounded in Mengbao, they also heard it.

Seeing that Chen Zhen didn't react, Zheng Jin stopped the car with some concern, found Chen Zhen and asked, "Captain Chen, the air raid alarm sounded, and Mengbao may be under air attack. Should we wait before continuing?"

Chen Zhen looked at the soldiers of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army around him. Seeing that everyone was a little scared, he smiled disdainfully and said, "Then let's wait a while before leaving."

The six of them witnessed the powerful strength of the independent brigade. The 13 enemy planes were smashed to pieces by the Eighth Route Army in one encounter.

With all these Japanese planes coming together, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in its heyday would not have dared to say that it could capture all of them. It did not expect that the independent brigade it had never met before would have such a strong air defense capability.

Zheng Dapao arranged the affairs of his men and drove to the Second Regiment's position. As soon as he got out of the car, he took Wuhan's hand and said excitedly, "Captain Wu, how is the situation here?

Our cooperation in defeating the enemy aircraft was excellent this time. I want to ask the brigade commander for your contribution."

Wuhan did not expect that the fight would go so smoothly this time. To be modest,

"There were only two young soldiers in our regiment who were carrying artillery shells and sprained their ankles. It's not a big deal.

The success of this battle was mainly due to the good command of Captain Zheng, especially the precise timing of shooting. I still need to learn more from Captain Zheng."

Zheng Dapao laughed, "Brother Wu, you are too polite. We still have a long time to work together. If you don't mind, just call me Old Zheng.

How about this, we jointly report the results of the battle to the brigade headquarters, so that the brigade commander knows that our air defense regiment can also fight tough battles. "

"it is good!"

At noon, Wang Ye received a telegram from the Air Defense Regiment and the 3rd and 6th Infantry Regiments.

The anti-aircraft regiment mainly talked about the bombing of the Mengbao Industrial Zone by Japanese planes, while the third and sixth regiments mainly reported on the negotiation group of the 35th Army of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

Wang Ye was not too worried about the bombing by the Japanese planes. Whether it was the reconnaissance of the airports in North China or the anti-aircraft firepower of the independent brigade, the Japanese planes could not gain any advantage.

Wang Ye was very anxious. He could have directly bombed the Japanese airport. Otherwise, the system's aerial bombs and fuel were expensive, and Wang Ye would not have hidden the aircraft brigade in the mountains and not moved.

"Brigade Commander, the 35th Army has sent Chief of Staff Zheng Jin to Mengbao to negotiate with us. What are our plans?"

Zhao Gang was a little unsure of Wang Ye's purpose. After all, Mengbao was still a city where the 35th Army of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was stationed. It seemed unreasonable for the independent brigade to take it just like that.

Wang Ye knew what Zhao Gang was thinking as soon as he saw his expression. This political commissar was good in every way except that he was too thin-skinned. So what if the 35th Army was stationed in a city?

If they were capable, they would not have let the Japanese take it away. Now that the independent brigade has snatched it back from the Japanese, how could Wang Ye possibly give it back?

"Political Commissar, don't worry about this. The Chief of Staff is hiding something, so let him represent you in the negotiations."

At the same time, the Japanese North China Expeditionary Army Headquarters also received a call from the Beijing Airport.

All the Japanese and spies near Mengbao were cleared out by the independent brigade. The Japanese had no idea of ​​the bombing results and the situation of the flying squadron.

Their only way to judge was that the bombers and fighters they sent out did not arrive at the airport on time.

"Commander, we received a call from the airport saying that the squadron sent to bomb the industrial area in Mengbao did not return on time.

They are worried that there is a problem, so let us check it out as soon as possible! ”

"What?" Okamura was shocked. The Japanese were already very short of resources, especially steel and other materials. It was even more difficult to replenish their aircraft.

13 planes may not sound like a lot, but if we want to replenish the country’s aircraft, we can only wait.
