I rise from the sword

Chapter 326 Unexpectedly, the devil fighter group returns to Lijiapo!
Just when Yamazaki Zhihei fell into despair, ready to live and die with Li Jiapo's position, and swore to the death for the main force to create the possibility of destroying the main force of the Eighth Route Army, the roar of aircraft engines suddenly came from the sky.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!—"

Hearing the harsh sound of the plane's engine, Yamazaki Zhihei hurriedly looked up at the plane in the sky.

However, more than 10 fighter jets with the sun flag logo painted on the fuselage and wings were flying towards Lijiapo as if covering the sky.

These Devil fighters did not fly back from Taiyuan Airport hundreds of kilometers away, but the previous batch of fighters turned back because they could not find the main force of the Eighth Route Army in other directions.

"Your Excellency, Captain, our fighter plane has arrived! It's so awesome!!!"

Captain Guizi's staff officer Maeda Koichiro and several other lieutenants beside him shouted excitedly. Seeing a glimmer of hope in despair, they almost cried out of joy.

"Yo Xi!"

"Our fighter jets turned back again, God bless the Fifth Battalion of the Imperial Army!"

"No matter how cunning these abominable Eighth Route Army are, they will eventually look pale and powerless in the face of absolute strength!"

"They don't want to beat my fifth team again!"

The expression on the old devil's face, Yamazaki Zhihei, also underwent a 180-degree change. The corners of his mouth were grinning, and a chrysanthemum-like smile bloomed on his ugly face.

Instead, Yamazaki Zhihei immediately ordered to the devil officers around him: "Pass my order, organize troops immediately, and take back the west side to serve!"

"Hi Yi!"

The devil officers ordered each other, then turned and left the command post.

After a while, the Devil fighters swept through the sky and flew over Lijiapo.

Immediately, the Devil fighters and bombers dispersed and launched an attack on the Eighth Route Army on the ground.

"Da da da! Da da da da!——"

The gunfire sounded, and the dense airborne machine gun bullets immediately poured out like a torrential rain.

The plowing usually splashes eye-catching bands of smoke and dust on the ground.

At that time, because the smoke gradually dispersed, and Li Yunlong did not expect that the little devil's airmen would kill a carbine, and did not release the smoke bombs again, which made it easy for the devil's airmen to capture the ground targets.

Some Eighth Route Army soldiers who had no time to dodge were unfortunately shot, and fell in a pool of blood in twos and threes.

The little devil seemed to have fully understood that the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army did not have decent anti-aircraft weapons, so he seemed a little unscrupulous and kept the flying high ground very low.

They kept firing and strafing, continuously suppressing and killing the Eighth Route Army soldiers on the ground with dense bullet rain.

However, as the little devil had expected, the independent regiment did not have anti-aircraft weapons and could not deal with the devil's fighter planes constantly circling in the sky.

For a while, he could only passively dodge around.

At the same time, the Devil bombers also started bombing unscrupulously.

"Hurricane, Hurricane Hurricane..."

Like a hen laying eggs, the Devil bomber dropped the aerial bombs one after another from the bomb carrier.

"Hidden, hide quickly! Watch out for the devil's aerial bombs!"

The soldiers of the independent regiment on the ground raised their voices to remind their companions, and at the same time scattered to avoid.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!—"

The aerial bombs fell to the ground and exploded one after another, sending up clusters of scarlet fireworks.

The fragments of the aerial bomb and the sand, gravel and soil on the ground, with the landing point of the aerial bomb as the center, scattered and flew in all directions along with the huge explosion shock wave.

Some fighters of the independent regiment happened to be near the landing point of the aerial bombs, and they had no time to escape, and they died one after another under the killing and wounding of the ghost aerial bombs.

"Look quickly, the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army of China, and the firepower of machine guns!"

Several Japanese fighters seemed to have discovered the mortar position of the [-]st Battalion of the Independent Regiment and the firepower of the machine guns on the hill position on the west side.

There was an undisguised bloodthirsty look in his eyes, and he controlled the fighter plane to dive viciously towards these positions and shoot quickly.

When he was about to reach the hill on the west side, he pressed the bomb button again and threw down one after another the powerful aerial bombs.

……

Lijiapo position.

After a while, a devil squadron leader organized his troops and launched a counterattack against the hills on the west side that had been occupied by the [-]st Battalion of the Independent Regiment.

"Warriors of the Empire, attack!"

"Take back the high ground ahead, and wipe out the Eighth Route Army of China on the high ground! Use the blood and lives of these Chinese troops to comfort the souls of the Imperial Army of the First Squadron!"

"Kill the chicken!"

"Kill the chicken and give it!!!"

Lieutenant Guizi swung his command knife forward vigorously, and under the cover of fighter planes, nearly 200 Guizi soldiers quickly jumped out of Lijiapo's position and launched towards the first battalion on the west hill.

Among them, due to the higher position of the hills on the west side, the smoke on the mountain is dispersed by the wind, and the newly released smoke has not yet spread.

So much so that the first battalion stationed here became the target of the devils' aviation and was frequently bombed.

"Buzz, buzz..."

Devil bombers and fighter jets circled back and forth over the hills on the west side, strafing with airborne machine guns and dropping aerial bombs for bombing.

Fortunately, the fortifications on the hills have been reinforced, and despite frequent attacks by enemy planes, they did not cause too many casualties to the [-]st Battalion.

In particular, the machine gun models and mortar models that Li Yunlong used to lure the Yamazaki Battalion to fire have attracted the firepower of most of the enemy planes...

This can be said to be unintentional for Li Yunlong.

I have to say that sometimes luck is also part of strength!

However, the devil's counterattack force that rushed down from Lijiapo's position had already charged halfway.

The first battalion was suppressed by the firepower of enemy planes, not to mention attacking the devils' attacking troops, they didn't even dare to raise their heads...

Seeing this scene, seeing this scene, Li Yunlong in the command post couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"This shitty, little devil's plane, it really didn't come at the fucking wrong time!"

Li Yunlong saw that the firepower of the devil fighter group was very strong, so he had to withdraw the second battalion, third battalion, fourth battalion, and fifth battalion from the attack position, and while releasing smoke, he found a place to hide.

Seeing that the enemy's counterattack troops were about to charge up the hill on the west side, even with Li Yunlong's concentration, he couldn't help becoming a little impatient.

If the devil's counterattack troops were left alone, with the devil's fighter jets as cover, it was unknown whether the first battalion would be able to retreat, let alone defend the position.

As for shelling, Li Yunlong did not dare.

This is not in Jiaocheng Mountain. The terrain is far less complicated than Jiaocheng Mountain. The vegetation on the ground is not dense, but some shrubs grow sparsely.

It can be said that as soon as the artillery unit of the independent regiment launches an attack, the artillery position will definitely be exposed immediately.

At that time, the devil's air force will surely come upon hearing the wind like a vulture smelling blood, and his artillery positions will be in danger!
Yang Lin looked at the group of devil fighter jets barking their teeth and claws in the sky, and knew Li Yunlong's fear very well in his heart.

"Brother Yunlong, don't you have a machine gun company? The enemy planes are less than 300 meters above the ground, and even less than 100 meters when they dive and attack. If the enemy planes come to attack your artillery position, you can concentrate Machine gun fire, come and attack the enemy planes in the sky!"

When Yang Lin reminded him like this, Li Yunlong was immediately enlightened.

"That's right, Brother Yang Lin, thanks for your reminder!"

Li Yunlong was not a reckless person. The reason why he felt that what Yang Lin said was reasonable was because the machine gun could indeed shoot down the devil planes flying at low altitudes.

The Eighth Route Army alone used machine guns and even rifles to shoot down the planes of the little devils more than once.

Immediately, Li Yunlong immediately picked up the phone and notified the machine gun company to ambush near the artillery position.

Then he gave the order to attack the battery.

"Artillery company, concentrate fire on me! Kill the devil's counterattack force!!!"

Following Wang Chengzhu's order, the artillery company immediately concentrated all the artillery, adjusted the shooting, and aimed at the devil's counterattack force under the hill on the west side.

"attack!"

The flag soldier waved the command flag in his hand heavily, and the main shooters of the artillery company immediately stuffed brand new shells into the barrel of the gun.

"Tom! tom tom tom tom!—"

All of a sudden, several guns fired, and dozens of shells of different calibers flew towards the foot of the hill on the west side.

The little devil in the distance had just rushed halfway up the mountain, when suddenly, a large number of hot shells bombarded down like a meteorite.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!—"

Dozens of shells fell suddenly, and immediately blasted the area from the halfway up the hill on the west side to the foot of the mountain into a sea of ​​flames.

Some little devils happened to be at the point where the shells fell, and they were immediately blown out with their guns. Bloody stumps and rotten flesh were scattered everywhere with the explosion.

All of a sudden, the little devil's screams rang out one after another, endlessly.

"Uh, uh, uh!"

"Ya Butterfly, Ya Butterfly..."

"My legs, my hands, my eyes..."

"I'm injured, medic, save me, save me, I don't want to die..."

The shrapnel scattered and splashed in all directions ruthlessly killed the little devils near the impact of the shells, and some of them died directly.

The rest of the little devils gave up the attack, or fled in all directions, or lay down on the ground nearby.

"Boom!"

"Boom boom boom boom!—"

The first wave of bombing had just ended, and then the second wave of bombing came suddenly.

Some grenades fell right around the crowd of Japs.

In particular, the power of the Italian cannon was so great that even if the little devil lay on the ground, he would not be spared. He was directly blown away by the shock wave of the explosion, and his body was ruthlessly torn apart by the shock wave.

In this fierce artillery strike, most of the little devils who launched the counterattack directly suffered casualties, and the attack had already been declared a failure before it really started.

"Baga! These damn Chinese artillery!"

"Turn around immediately and destroy them, fast, fast!!!"

Seeing that the counter-offensive force was attacked by artillery fire from the Independence Regiment, the Devil Aviation immediately maneuvered the fighter plane to turn around and charged towards the Independence Regiment artillery position.

The little devil who launched the counterattack took advantage of the cover provided by the aviation soldiers, and retreated from the mountainside like a bereaved dog.

At this moment, they were no longer as strong as a small team, and even if they rushed up the hill, they would not be able to regain their position.

Instead of this, it is better to preserve strength first, and wait for the aviation to completely solve the artillery of the independent regiment before reorganizing the troops to launch a counterattack.

"You bastard, I thought these oriental bastards were covered in tortoise shells, so they wouldn't be afraid of shells!"

Li Yunlong saw the Devils' counter-offensive troops being blown up, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Li Yunlong's mouth.

Immediately, Li Yunlong turned his attention to the arrogant devil fighter plane.

Carelessly underestimating the enemy is a taboo for military strategists.

However, it was not Li Yunlong who underestimated the enemy this time, but the Devils Air Force.

They also launched countless confrontations with the Eighth Route Army, coupled with a powerful intelligence firepower network, it can be said that they have a clear picture of the Eighth Route Army's weapons, equipment and firepower.

Knowing that the Eighth Route Army has no anti-aircraft firepower, it seems infinitely arrogant.

As the enemy plane approached, Li Yunlong showed no fear on his face. He wanted to see whether the little devil's plane was the best, or his fire interception net was the best!

"Goofy little devil, come on, I just entered the net with lantern riddles!"

At this time, all the soldiers of the independent regiment's machine gun company had already established a machine gun group position on the high ground near the artillery position and took cover.

"Buzz, buzz buzz..."

As the distance approached, the sound of aircraft engines in the air became more and more resounding, as if it was about to burst people's eardrums.

A few Devil fighter planes flew over at low altitude, and they didn't even have a decent formation, because in their view, any tactics were superfluous to deal with the vulnerable Eighth Route Army.

Soon, these fighter planes approached within 1 kilometer of the artillery position of the Independent Regiment.

The soldiers of the machine gun company had already been ready for battle. They looked focused, aimed their guns upwards at the enemy plane, and set the advance amount according to Yang Lin's reminder.

When the enemy plane was only 500 meters away from the artillery position, the machine gun company commander decisively gave the order to attack.

"Brother, fire!"

"Hit, give me a hard hit!"

Suddenly, the sound of machine guns on the ground sounded like popping beans.

"Da da da, da da da da!"

"Tut, chug, chug, chug..."

More than 30 light and heavy machine guns fired together, and the dense bullets shot into the sky like a storm, interweaving and forming a huge firepower interception net.

Surrounded the devil's fighter group tightly!

The Devils only saw the artillery positions of the Independence Regiment, and the ground was covered by some smoke, which prevented them from observing that the Independence Regiment was still ambushing machine gun groups on the ground.

By the time the Devil Aviation Soldiers reacted, the fleet had plunged headlong into the firepower interception net of the Independent Regiment!
"Baga! Not good, these damned Eighth Route Army ambushed machine gun fire groups on the ground!"

"Be careful to dodge, be careful to dodge!"

The Devil Aviation Soldiers reacted immediately after being shot a few times by the plane, and then began to hastily maneuver the plane, trying to avoid the lasing bullets.

"Shhhhhh!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

The dense rain of bullets carried the sound of the wind tearing through the air, causing the enemy planes to dodge left and right, in a very embarrassing situation.

However, there are too many machine guns on the ground, and thousands of bullets are poured out almost every second.

Therefore, after the enemy plane enters the attack range, it is almost impossible to avoid all the dense rain of bullets...
