Rise from the sword

Chapter 426 More Than One Bad News
"Ikeda-kun, you are in charge of the air defense position on the left."

"Ohara-kun, you are in charge..."

"..."

"The central position, leave it to me."

After assigning the same group of pilots to attack, the devil pilot in charge pressed the joystick, and the formation of five 2000-type dive bombers hovering at an altitude of more than [-] meters suddenly dispersed, and each dived down along different routes.

I have to say that the little devil Army Aviation pilot is very capable.

While the third group of five planes descended and dived to attack the air defense positions, the first group hovering around the edge of Zhao Jiayu's airspace, and the second group hovering in the central airspace also lowered their heights and launched a rapid dive towards Zhao Jiayu's wings and the center. attack.

Three groups and fifteen pilots cooperated very well.

Under normal circumstances, when a fixed air defense position is faced with multiple attacks, and even itself is threatened, it will inevitably be left-handed and right-handed, making mistakes while busy, resulting in a significant reduction in anti-air firepower and a decrease in air defense efficiency.

but····
At this time, Zhao Jiayu's air defense company was abnormal everywhere.

···
"The little devil's pilot skills are really not bragging."

On the air defense position on the top of the mountain, Wen Ye, the commander of the air defense company, held up his binoculars and looked at the fifteen Devil planes that swooped down in Zhao Jiayu's airspace, with a serious tone of emotion.

Up to now, the fifty heavy machine guns and twelve 20-inch anti-aircraft guns that fired first have been entangled with ten Devil planes for almost 10 minutes.

There are five planes on the edge and five planes in the center. The ten planes of the little devil have been repeatedly tested at an altitude of 800 meters to 500 meters.

At a distance of 800 meters, the maximum altitude of the m2 heavy machine gun, the ballistic trajectory of this 12.7mm bullet has completely lost its accuracy, and its power has also been greatly reduced. At 500 meters, it is the maximum altitude of the 20mm anti-aircraft gun.

But the Devil's plane is notoriously thin-skinned, and even heavy machine gun bullets with greatly reduced power can pose enough threats, let alone 20mm guns.

Moreover, fifty heavy machine guns and twelve 20-inch anti-aircraft guns fired a very dense barrage.

It's just that so far, none of the little devil's planes have crashed, and none have even been injured. Wen Ye can tell from the flying posture of the devil's planes that the ten devil's planes are unharmed. .

Although part of the reason is that these shooters are the first time in actual combat air defense and have serious lack of experience in air combat, the main reason is that these devil pilots are really good.

In the early days of [-], the little devil Army Aviation pilots hadn't collapsed yet.

"But...hehe."

After a word of praise, Wen Ye's face turned murderous in an instant. At this time, the devil's plane was approaching a high speed of one meter, within the range of a 20-meter anti-aircraft gun, and about to reach the air-to-air range of a heavy machine gun.

At this moment, Wen Ye thought of when he first took over the air defense company.

At that time, he was just a machine gunner. Although he had a lot of research on fighting devil planes, it was just a little experience that he pondered over alone. At that time, he didn't have the slightest confidence in leading the air defense company. After all, including him, all members They were all novices, and he was afraid of bringing down the troops, so he once wanted to refuse to be the company commander.

Li Yunlong said this to him at the time:

No commanding experience?Inexperienced shooter?Is the cooperation of the air defense team not tacit enough?

It doesn't matter.

Experience is something that has been fought in actual combat, and tacit understanding is also tempered in actual combat. The little devil will definitely bomb our independent regiment in the future. At that time, you will bring the air defense company to eight times and ten times in actual combat. Experience or tacit understanding, there are both.

Anti-aircraft artillery, nine out of ten defenses?It doesn't matter, if one door is not enough, ten doors are enough, and if ten doors are not enough, one hundred doors are enough.

"All fire and shoot down the Devil's plane for me."

Wen Ye's tone was equally murderous.

In an instant, under the cover and camouflage net, twenty 40-inch anti-aircraft guns, 38 20-inch anti-aircraft guns, and fifty m2 heavy machine guns fired together, and the firepower net that was more than three times denser than before enveloped the dive instantly. The devil flying team.

·····
"Kill them..."

Eyes wide open, howling, the devil commander who controlled the Type [-] dive bomber and rushed towards an air defense position, his expression froze instantly when he saw the sudden increase in firepower.

"Nani..."

Accompanied by an exclamation, the devil commander's expression changed from glaring to stunned.

Then he saw that a [-]-type bomber beside him was blown up in the air, turned into a ball of fire, and then fell straight to the ground.

"Independent regiments have larger caliber anti-aircraft guns."

"This is a trap!"

The scene in front of him made this experienced devil instantly understand the current situation.

The explosion just now was not the detonation of the bomb on the plane, but the explosive power of the anti-aircraft shell, and such a powerful explosion is definitely not something that 20 anti-aircraft artillery shells can do.

But at this time, the altitude of his plane was already very low. Although he did not enter a large-angle dive, he could recover completely, but after recovering from the dive, it would take a period of time to accelerate in level flight, and the altitude would further decrease, and the speed would also decrease.

Facing the dense air defense firepower of at least [-] to [-] points on the ground, flying at low altitude and low speed is completely courting death.

Thinking of this, the devil commander gritted his teeth, pushed the joystick violently, and chose to continue diving.

At the same time, he shouted loudly in the shared channel:

"Keep attacking..."

The rest of the devils who launched the attack also made the same choice one after another, speeding up and diving one after another, launching bombing against the intensive anti-aircraft firepower of the independent regiment.

Aircraft attack is not like the ground, which can launch a group attack at the same time. Fifteen aircraft, even if they are divided into three groups, in order to avoid collisions, a maximum of six dives attack at a time, and the rest hover at an altitude of 500 meters.

After receiving the order to continue the attack, the remaining [-] Type [-] dive bombers launched dive bombing successively from all directions.

"Full fire."

On the ground, at all the anti-aircraft artillery positions, the officers and cadres in command also roared loudly.

shhhhhh...

boom boom boom

bang bang bang...

Accompanied by the banging of anti-aircraft guns, the panting of engines, and the scream of bombs falling.

On the ground around Zhaojiayu, dozens of clouds of explosion smoke rose, several houses that had just been built were blown up, a simple bridge was blown up, and even a 20-meter artillery position was shrouded in gunpowder smoke.

At the same time, two clouds of gunpowder smoke rose in mid-air. This was when two Devil bombers were blown up in the air, and the other two Devil planes shook, with blue smoke and flames coming out of the nose, and then went straight rushed to the ground.

In this round of fighting, the devils lost five planes on the spot, and the independent regiment also suffered losses. A 20-meter artillery position was hit, and the casualties are temporarily unknown.

"Return."

Looking at the anti-aircraft gun position below where he was shot, then at the wing that was penetrated by him, and finally took a deep look at the newly released 40-caliber anti-aircraft guns, the devil commander gritted his teeth and ordered to retreat. The command.

After throwing away the heavy bombs, the maneuverability of the aircraft greatly increased, and the remaining ten Type [-] bombers circled around a bend and retreated in the direction of Taiyuan.

"40 anti-aircraft guns, keep firing for me."

One of his own air defense positions was hit, and Wen Ye also ordered the 3500 guns with red eyes to fire into the air before the altitude reached 40 meters, and continued to fire on the devil's plane.

The 40mm anti-aircraft gun equipped with a gyroscope calibrator has excellent aiming. In addition, the team operating the 40mm gun is elite. They have a lot of experience in air defense before. Before the plane was out of range, it shot down a Type 40 dive bomber again.

At this time, the loss of the hit anti-aircraft artillery position also came out:
"Reporting to the company commander, a 20 anti-aircraft gun was lost in the second position, all five members of the team were injured, three were seriously injured, two were slightly injured, and no one was sacrificed."

The perfect anti-aircraft artillery position built by the independent regiment has defensive sandbags and anti-aircraft holes. In addition, the Devil pilots were affected by the artillery fire, and the bombs did not directly hit the center of the air defense position, so the casualties were not large.

Wen Ye was also relieved to hear that no one had sacrificed.

Afterwards, he looked at the wreckage of the devil planes that had crashed near Zhaojiayu, with a smile on his face.

This time, in the air defense battle for about half an hour, he shot down six Devil planes, that is to say, he got 1 tons of weapons and ammunition, and more than [-] tons of food.

Considering that most members of the air defense company were fighting for the first time, and there were a lot of deficiencies in the coordination between the various positions, it was also the first time for him to command such a large-scale air defense operation. If the loser launches an attack, the result is already very good.

Fifteen planes attacked, six of them were shot down, 40.00% shot down.

······
at the same time.

Pan County.

As the last 120mm mortar shell left the barrel, the camp of the Pan County Devil Brigade in the distance was already covered in gunpowder smoke, and the original devil dormitory buildings had become wreckage. There are many dead bodies of devils.

"withdraw."

Not bothering to look at his own results, Wang Chengzhu quickly retreated with his troops.

The members of the artillery squad moved quickly, and in just a few tens of seconds, they disassembled the two 120 heavy forces, put them on the back of the big mule, took the reins, and left along the mountain road, retreating towards Zhao Jiayu.

Only the shell packaging of corrugated paper and thin wood chips, and two deep artillery positions were left.

Half an hour after Wang Chengzhu led the people to evacuate, the devils from Pan County arrived here with difficulty. Among the leading devils, there was a person whose profile was covered with blood and his ears were wrapped in gauze. Obviously, Wang Chengzhu's second artillery company also had The old tradition of the Independence Regiment is to leave a little gift anytime, anywhere as long as you face devils.

At this time, the captain of the devil group in Pan County was about to be attacked, and the news of the heavy loss of soldiers and supplies was informed to the superior team leader, and the team leader immediately reported to Gibbon after cursing on the phone.

····
About the same time.

Niangziguan Railway Station.

Ten kilometers to the east, Yansheng also fired the last shell.

At this time, Niangziguan Railway Station was already in a sea of ​​gunpowder and flames. The main building of the station was riddled with holes, and even a wall was directly bombed down. was destroyed.

Even the devils on guard had many casualties, more than 30 were killed on the spot.

"retreat."

Iwamori gave the order to retreat.

Afterwards, the six gun groups moved quickly and smoothly. In just one and a half minutes, the disassembly of the Boss Fushan gun was completed and all the parts were installed on the back of the big mule and fixed.

When the devils from Niangziguan Railway Station arrived, they could only see six artillery emplacements and some shell packages that had been left behind.

Afterwards, the garrison captain of Niangziguan Railway Station also called the telegraph operator, who tremblingly reported the loss of the station directly to the Taiyuan Headquarters.

·····
During the hasty escape back to Taiyuan, when approaching Taiyuan, the devil commander controlled the plane carefully and frightened, while reporting the situation to Taiyuan.

At this time, his aircraft engine had begun to emit a puff of smoke, and it was getting thicker and thicker.
