Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

On April 3, 8:00 am was the time to launch the general attack.

The Second Division of the Red Alert had arrived near Pingquan last night.

In this small place, more than 40,000 troops from two divisions of the Red Alert Corps gathered.

This also made Pingquan crowded.

The Lotus Valley Field Airport is a newly built airport.

It is located 8 kilometers west of Chengde, on the flat land beside the Luan River.

The Lotus Valley Field Airport is very large.

Two squadrons of fighter planes have been parked here.

However, they are not fighters, but bombers.

The bomber squadron has three three-plane formations, plus a three-plane formation of the battalion headquarters, a total of 30 bombers.

The model chosen is the famous B-17 heavy bomber.

This bomber has a speed of 450 kilometers per hour, a range of 3,000 kilometers, and a bomb load of 8 tons.

At present, it is very suitable for China to use.

At least it is much cheaper than the B-29 strategic bomber.

The time came to about 7:30.

One after another, B-17 heavy bombers roared off from the runway of Lotus Valley Airport.

The propellers spun at high speed, raising a large amount of smoke and dust.

After completing the formation in the air, they rushed to Pingquan at high speed.

At another airport, 104 P-47D Thunderbolt fighters roared off.

This time, the entire Red Alert Air Force was dispatched.

""Commander, the Air Force has notified us that they will arrive in ten minutes."

Xie Ning glanced at his mechanical watch, nodded and said,"Okay, we will launch the attack in ten minutes and defeat this group of Japanese troops."

After several days of fierce fighting, both the Eighth Division and the 33rd Mixed Brigade suffered heavy losses.

Moreover, they were unable to replenish their forces.

The First Division can replenish new forces and equipment every day.

With the strength of two divisions, plus the advantage of air artillery fire, we will definitely be able to break through the Japanese defense line today and defeat these two Japanese troops.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Xie Ning picked up the phone and said in a serious tone,"I am Xie Ning, launching the attack according to the original plan."

After hanging up the phone, I glanced at the cloudy sky.

Suddenly, there were roars from the rear.

This time, the running group was unprecedented in scale.

It assembled two divisions of artillery brigades plus an independent heavy artillery brigade.

There were 96 howitzers and cannons over 150 mm alone.

There were also 12 heavy howitzers with a caliber of 203 mm.

This did not include the six 105 mm howitzer battalions, a total of 72 105 mm howitzers.

Together with the 120 mm caliber heavy mortars, the number was close to 200.

Such a large-scale running group launched an artillery bombardment that shook the earth.

Dense shells fell like raindrops in the Japanese-controlled area of Pingquan.

Three A total of 72 Katyusha rocket launchers from the rocket artillery battalion also joined the bombardment.

One rocket after another whistled into the sky.

When passing through the air, they formed a series of flame bridges in the air, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

These 72 rocket launchers fired more than 1,000 132mm caliber rockets in one salvo. This once again increased the power of the bombardment in the direction of Hiraizumi.

The Japanese troops in the bombardment felt like the end of the world.

There were endless explosions in all directions.

One shell after another hit them, making them feel suffocated.

Even those hiding in the anti-gun caves felt like they were going to be buried.

All kinds of bricks and stones were turned into powder in the bombardment.

"The Chinese are about to launch a general offensive."

Feeling such a large-scale bombardment.

At this moment, the division commander Nishi Yoshiichi's face was full of bitterness.

He no longer lived up to his previous arrogance.

At this moment, groups of fighter planes roared in the sky.

One after another, P-47 Thunder fighters circled over Pingquan and dropped bombs.

3,000 meters in the air, a group of 60 B-17 bombers covered the sky.

The artillery group on the ground had already pointed out the target for them.

As the bomb bay door opened, 250 kg and 500 kg bombs fell like dumplings.

"Choo Choo Choo......."

"Boom boom boom........"

The power generated by the explosion of a 500-kilogram aerial bomb was so great that even the 203-mm heavy artillery was suppressed.

In order to prevent accidental injuries, the soldiers of the First Division in the city temporarily evacuated outside the city.

Feeling the vibrations from the ground and the overwhelming smoke columns, all the soldiers of the First Division felt a little suffocated.

With so many Japanese soldiers huddled in the small town of Pingquan under such a large-scale bombardment, how many people could survive?

The bombardment lasted for a total of four hours.

Pingquan has been completely razed to the ground, with dense craters everywhere.

Although the Japanese army dug a large number of tunnels in the city, most of the tunnels were directly destroyed.

"Attack!"

At the command, tens of thousands of troops from the Red Alert 1st Division and the Red Alert 2nd Division were everywhere, sweeping towards Pingquan like a tide.

More than 200 tanks formed a steel torrent and plunged into Pingquan.

The remnants of the Japanese 8th Division and the 33rd Mixed Brigade were directly overwhelmed by the human wave tactics.

This was a completely one-sided massacre.

The surface of the waterfall river that passed through the city was dyed red by the blood of the Japanese army.

The battle lasted until the afternoon of the next day.

Since this battle, the Japanese 8th Division and the 33rd Mixed Brigade were completely wiped out.

The Pingquan Campaign that shocked China and the world has come to an end.
