Also arriving at Xuzhou Airport with Feng on the same plane were Chief of Staff Guo Weiquan, Zhao Long, Long Yi, and twenty selected special forces members. During Ye Feng's time in Xuzhou, these special forces members were Ye Feng's personal guards.

Ye Feng walked out of the C-47 transport plane he was riding on and looked at Xuzhou Airport a little. The entire Xuzhou Airport was full of traces of war, and you could even see some Japanese plane wreckage that was temporarily unavailable, as well as some damaged Japanese planes.

"Military seat, we finally arrived at Xuzhou Airport." The two-hour long flight seemed to make Zhao Long feel so nervous. He walked out of the cabin, took a few breaths of air, and immediately sighed.

Long Yi was relatively taciturn. After following Ye Feng, Guo Weiquan said nothing, but just looked around at the situation at Xuzhou Airport.

At Xuzhou Airport, planes landed one by one, and a large number of soldiers got off the plane. Gradually, there were more people on the airport.

An infantry regiment of the Second Infantry Division came by air transport. This time, Ye Feng ordered all the transport planes to be dispatched, and more than 3,000 infantry regiments were more than 3,000 people. In addition to heavy weapons and equipment, everyone arrived here lightly.

Ye Feng came with the plane. You don’t have to worry about your heavy weapons and equipment, and you can exchange them from the “Nuwa” system.

With so many planes coming, Xuzhou Airport was busy. The soldiers of the 1st Regiment of the Second Infantry Division began to help clear the airport, and some soldiers took the initiative to go to the outside of the airport to guard the airport.

More than 3,000 soldiers carrying light weapons and equipment all landed, and C-47 transport planes began to take off and returned in formation.

Ye Feng accompanied Zhao Long and Long Yi and others to enter a hangar at Xuzhou Airport. Xuzhou Airport is worthy of being one of the largest airports of the North China Front Army of Japan, and two large-scale hangars were built on one side of the airport.

At this time, all the broken Japanese planes in the two hangars were cleared out, and the inside seemed empty, and the door was closed. Ye Feng began to exchange for heavy infantry weapons and equipment.

Various light and heavy machine guns, mortars, large amounts of ammunition, etc., even 105mm howitzers, various war defense guns, etc. have been exchanged. Everything seems very mysterious.

In addition to these weapons and equipment, Ye Feng also exchanged some trucks, some necessary armored vehicles, as well as some off-road vehicles and other vehicles in another hangar.

Xuzhou, 110th Division Command.

The Japanese division chief, Nodo Nagashiro, has received a report, and the huge fleet of the newly formed 6th Army has arrived at Xuzhou Airport. Nodo Nagashiro is dark and is thinking about countermeasures.

The Chief of Staff next to him saw that his division commander looked not good at all, and he seemed cautious and did not dare to show off. Today, it was the most difficult day for the entire 110th Division.

The battle at Xuzhou Airport has only been five or six hours since the start of the battle, and more than one-third of the casualties of the 110th Division, among which the entire Kono wing was wiped out, and the Kimura Brigade suffered heavy losses. The brigade commander Takeo Kimura was killed. In addition, many Japanese and puppet troops in Xuzhou City were bombed by the newly-organized 6th Army aircraft, causing heavy losses.

Nodori Yushiro thought for a long time and said in a deep voice: "I ask for help from Commander-in-Chief Tadada again. Ask for infantry reinforcements and retake Xuzhou Airport."

Two hours ago, after learning that Takeo Kimura was killed by the bombing, Nofuji Yushiro sent a telegram to the North China Front Army of Japan, requesting reinforcements.

From time to time, a large number of aircraft appeared in the Xuzhou area of ​​the newly formed 6th Army, and Nodo Yushiro was very troubled. Xuzhou Airport was lost. The little Japanese had almost no air force in the Xuzhou area. The 110th Division was just a field division. Facing the newly formed 6th Army, he could only sigh to the sky or be bombed.

When the Chief of Staff of the Japanese Army heard the order of Nodo Yushiro, he had to go and send a message to Tada Toshiro, the North China Front Army of Japan again.

About ten minutes later.

The Chief of Staff of the Japanese walked in quickly and reported loudly: "The division commander has received a personal reply from the Commander-in-Chief Tada Toshige. The First Brigade of the Chariot is coming and arrives in Xuzhou at around 7 pm. In addition, the 5th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade of Zaozhuang is also starting to march towards Xuzhou. Its main force is expected to arrive in Xuzhou one after another tomorrow morning."

"Yoxi!!!"

Nodo Yushiro's face improved significantly, and he gradually became happy. Nodo Yushiro's face was far from expected that Toshiki Tada gave him such a powerful reinforcement and dispatched a chariot brigade.

The chariot brigade and heavy artillery brigade are basically strategic forces for the Japanese, and they will not be easily dispatched under normal circumstances.

With the First Brigade of the Tanks and the cooperation of the 110th Division, the Xuzhou Airport will definitely be recaptured in the evening. Nodoshiro knew that it was impossible for the newly formed 6th Army to dispatch planes at night.

The Japanese North China Front Army is a little larger than the Central China Front Army. Not only does it have more than a dozen field divisions, several mixed brigades, but also two chariot brigades, two heavy artillery brigades, one cavalry brigade, and in addition, it also requires more than a dozen independent guards. In addition to these troops, there are also a large number of puppet troops.

......

After redeeming the equipment, Ye Feng arranged to distribute these equipment, weapons and ammunition. With Xuzhou Airport as the center, the soldiers set up defensive formations, the First Air Force Marine Regiment (Airborne Regiment), the First Infantry Division, and thousands of soldiers protected the Xuzhou Airport.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, the third batch of soldiers will arrive at Xuzhou Airport, and more than 3,000 people will arrive at Xuzhou Airport.

Now, around the Xuzhou Airport, there are about 3,000 airborne regiments, more than 3,000 soldiers in the first regiment of the Second Infantry Division, and more than 6,000 soldiers in the two units.

Ye Feng stood on the roof of the tallest building in Xuzhou Airport, holding a telescope and looking at the terrain around the airport. The surroundings were flat and there was no natural danger to defend. The only way was to take the initiative to attack and replace defense with offense.

Thinking about the more than 6,000 soldiers on hand, Ye Feng was not in a relaxed mood. Although the 110th Division of the Xuzhou Japanese was suffering a lot and his morale was low, if he took the initiative to attack, it would be insufficient.

It would be great if there were reinforcements or other troops to cooperate.

Thinking of the remaining troops, Ye Feng couldn't help but think of the Eighth Route Army operating in southern Shandong. Ye Feng knew that in southern Shandong, the Eighth Route Army opened up an anti-Japanese base. The Eighth Route Army was not small in scale, but its weapons and equipment were too poor, and its combat effectiveness was a little worse than that of the Japanese troops.

Ye Feng has always done a good job in intelligence work. He has also investigated the garrison of the small Japanese in Xuzhou area and several nearby cities. When the war broke out in Xuzhou, the small Japanese would definitely come to reinforce, and they would definitely come to reinforce via railways or highways. The closest large-scale Japanese army to Xuzhou is the 5th Japanese Independence Mixed Brigade in Zaozhuang.

If the Eighth Route Army in southern Shandong can block the 5th Independent Mixed Brigade and successfully head south for reinforcements, as long as the Second Infantry Division is airlifted over, it can counterattack and deal with the Japanese devils in Xuzhou.

The Second Infantry Division had a total of several thousand people. If transported by air, it would have to be transported for a whole day tomorrow, at least several batches.

Before taking action against Xuzhou, Ye Feng learned about the Eighth Route Army in southern Shandong. The Eighth Route Army had the ability to block the Japanese from going south to reinforce Xuzhou.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Shandong Party organization led the armed uprising in Tengxian, Yixian and other places, carried out the work of creating bases, and established the First Corps of the People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Team in May 1938.

In May 1939, the first part of the direct team of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army and the Seventh Regiment of the Sixth Detachment of the Anti-Japanese Column of the East Advancement East entered Tai'an, Sishui, and Ningyang Border Areas from western Shandong, and then developed into the northwest area of ​​Fei County. In July, the 686th Regiment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army entered southern Shandong from Huxi District and opened the Zou (County) Teng (County) border area.

In September, the main force of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army advanced to Sishui, Teng County, Fei County, Yi County and Linyi areas, and met with the First Corps of the People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Team of the Southern Shandong People, opened up the Fei, Yi, Teng Border Area, Tancheng and Matou Town areas, and established the Southern Shandong Anti-Japanese Base Area with Tianbao Mountain as the center.

The Eighth Route Army is everywhere in the entire southern Shandong region. It is completely feasible to block and harass Japanese reinforcements to the south to reinforce Xuzhou.

Xuzhou is a transportation hub, where the major railway arteries of north and south, east and west converge, and the transportation and special strategic location are also one of the reasons why Ye Feng is aiming for Xuzhou.

When Ye Feng arrived at Xuzhou Airport, a large number of "air fortresses" bombers accompanied by him had already bombed the railway trunk lines in Xuzhou, east, west, south and north, and bombed the main highways and bridges, with the purpose of naturally slowing down the speed of the Japanese reinforcements.

Thinking of asking the Eighth Route Army to cooperate, Ye Feng felt it was not appropriate to go to the Chief of Staff next to him, and said to Guo Weiquan, "Chief of Staff Guo, you are fully responsible for commanding the war in Xuzhou. I want to go to the base of the Eighth Route Army."

"Are you going to the Eighth Route Army Base?"

Guo Weiquan was surprised, then, as if he had thought about something, and nodded immediately, "Military, don't worry, I will grasp the war in Xuzhou area. You must pay attention to safety this time."

Ye Feng nodded and took Zhao Long and Long waited to get off the roof of the building.

****

Zaozhuang.

The 5th Brigade of the Little Japan Independence, a long line was moving along the road leading to Xuzhou. The Little Japan has received information that the railway was seriously damaged and is temporarily unavailable.

However, the highway was also damaged, but the situation was better than the railway and could barely pass through. After some bridges were blown up, it might take a lot of time to build bridges before passing through, which took a lot of time.

The long line of Little Japan stretches long along the highway, and there is no end at a glance.
