Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated
Chapter 218 Failure!
The northern defense line of Zhongtiao Mountain and the northeast side of Hengling Pass.
After delivering Li Yunlong's 1st Marine Regiment to its destination, Principal Chang immediately led the air trains to turn around and quickly return to the field airport in the southeastern Shanxi base area.
The entire formation arrived at the battlefield and was split into two as never before. One part was composed of twenty-five plus transport aircraft and twenty-five fighter jets.
These fighter jets will continue to perform escort missions to ensure that the air train can return safely.
The other part consisted of six Spitfires and fifty-eight Hurricanes. They not only carried bullets and aerial cannons, but also mounted Red Sun rockets and aerial bombs on the lower ends of their wings.
According to the orders of the First Air Division, these big guys must be dealt with before returning to the airport.
In this era, whether it is a fighter jet or a bomber, as long as it takes off with a full load of weapons, it will generally not bring those big babies back to the airport.
Even if they are not used up, they will choose a sparsely populated place to throw them away.
After all, when a plane takes off with weapons, it encounters almost no danger. After all, they are well-trained warriors with solid basic skills.
But no one can guarantee that their aircraft will be intact after completing the mission!
No matter what the reason is, once a mistake is made during landing, there is a possibility of friction between the aircraft body and the ground.
If there were still weapons mounted on the belly or under the wings at that time, it was very likely that it would blow up your own airport.
Looking at the Japanese who seemed to be tireless and attacking like crazy. Captain Wang Hai picked up the communicator and issued the attack order on the channel:
"In the first wave, every four fighters form a formation, and everyone goes up together. While the enemy's formation is still dense, throw out all the aerial bombs."
"Choose high-value targets as much as possible to delay the enemy's advance!"
"receive!"
······
At this time, the 41st Division and the 9th Independent Mixed Brigade of the North China Front were launching a fierce attack on the positions of the 43rd Army and the 17th Army in Guo Preserved.
Although a large number of heavy weapons were lost in the air raid, the combat effectiveness and fighting will of the Japanese B Division cannot be underestimated.
Under the impact at all costs, the defenders on the northern line of Zhongtiao Mountain have already declined. In just two hours of fighting, they lost their Shibaping position.
Several infantry brigades fought steadily, using Type 92 infantry artillery and smoke grenades as the core of tactics, bit by bit eroding the fortress group of the 43rd Army.
In the Japanese army's forward command post, Lieutenant General Qingmizu and Major General Kenkichi Ikegami both looked bad.
Even though the troops are attacking smoothly now, as long as those damn enemy planes appear again, all the previous results will have to be vomited away.
Suddenly, Qing Shui rushed out of the command post. The old devil grabbed the telescope of the staff officer beside him and looked carefully at the distant sky.
Soon, he spotted dozens of green dots high in the sky.
"Enemy plane! Enemy plane! Hidden!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of senior generals in the command post crawled into the air-raid shelter like moles. The speed is so fast that it has a Gallic chicken legacy.
The reason why Qingshui Juju was able to identify the Kongyi Division was simple. Their planes all departed from Taiyuan and should have flown from the north rather than from the south.
As the sound of piston engines became clearer and clearer, sixty-four fighter jets appeared over the battlefield.
The Japanese infantry were immediately in disarray. They had been battered by the bombing. Many Japanese soldiers' legs trembled involuntarily just when they saw the plane.
When life and death were at stake, the brigades no longer gathered together and the birds and beasts scattered, and the offensive formation was destroyed in an instant.
No one had the courage to charge, because enemy planes had already swooped down and dropped aerial bombs on the densely populated area.
Several 227-kilogram aerial bombs exploded with a bang. Even Qingshui Juju and others in the rear air raid shelter could clearly feel the noise caused by the explosion.
Unlike the Japanese who were in extremely embarrassed condition, the 43rd Army, as the defender, seemed to have received a powerful shot of adrenaline.
It has been more than a full day since the battle began, and most of the soldiers have become accustomed to the friendly air force acting like model workers.
Even though the two sides have not yet established an effective communication network, the air-ground cooperation is working well, and sometimes the ground troops can guide the First Air Division to their targets.
For the grassroots commanders on the front line, now is a good opportunity to attack. The aerial bombs not only destroyed the enemy's trenches, but also broke up the enemy's formation.
If you don't fight back now, why wait?
"All attacks!"
Taking advantage of the air strikes launched by the First Air Division, the 43rd Army organized several waves of counterattacks and regained the Shibaping position.
If the commander of the army, Zhao Shiling, was not afraid that the troops would charge too hard and be accidentally injured by friendly fighter jets, the soldiers with high morale would have to give the Japanese more strength.
Under the instruction of the signal bomb, the hurricanes completed the dive and threw the aerial bombs they carried on the head of the 41st Division wantonly.
Pieces of bombs exploded along the Japs' retreat route, and streaks of fire devoured the enemy's lives.
Occasionally, Japanese soldiers used light and heavy machine guns to try to form an anti-aircraft fire network. But this pitiful firepower is not even qualified to be an atmosphere set to send off the hurricane.
The precise dive bombing lasted for five minutes. Sixty-four fighter jets were divided into several batches and sent the aerial bombs they carried to the 41st Division and the 9th Independent Mixed Brigade.
The two brothers, the Hurricane and the Spitfire, were definitely very popular fighters on the European battlefield.
After all, the bomb load is insufficient and it is difficult to fulfill the mission of a close support aircraft.
But once they come to the Asian battlefield with excellent matching mechanisms, many Japanese soldiers already regard them as the gods of death in the air.
Regardless of the weight of the aerial bomb carried by the two, even if it does not hit directly and becomes a near-miss, it can have an instant kill effect on the Japanese armored forces.
Red Sun rockets are less powerful, but are very accurate when attacking ground units.
Coupled with the shooting correction of aviation machine guns or aircraft cannons, it is basically possible to achieve one artillery position for one shot.
Naturally, there is no need to mention the power of Western artillery and Browning aviation machine guns. The damage caused by these two weapons in one day is no less than the number of rockets and aerial bombs.
In a sense, the mental damage caused is even greater.
After the aerial bombs were used up, many fighter planes attacked freely.
Fang Ziyi's target was a Type 95 light tank that was retreating. As soon as his hurricane wings swung, he began to dive at a small angle.
From the perspective of the Japanese below, the plane that killed countless people was rushing towards them with a terrifying momentum.
The hurricane's twelve Browning machine guns fired at the Japanese retreating with the tanks, and also completed the correction of the rocket launch trajectory.
boom!
After a loud noise, the Type 95 light tank was blown into several burning parts, obviously completely destroyed.
As for the crew members inside the tanks, it can only be said that they are all acquaintances, and there is no possibility of any of them surviving.
The surrounding Japanese who retreated using the tanks as bunkers were blown to pieces by aerial bombs, even if they were not killed by Browning aircraft machine guns.
With a simple lick of the ground, the tank that made the 43rd Army itch with hatred was easily eliminated by Fang Ziyi.
Facing the air force loaded with ammunition, the enemy's ground troops are all lambs waiting to be slaughtered. It can only be said that air power is worthy of being the natural enemy of ground armored troops.
Watching Fang Ziyi gracefully complete a ground attack, he said with great emotion on the channel:
"I have to say that your efficiency is getting higher and higher! If the current situation continues, maybe in a few decades your story will be circulated by the world like Rudel."
"After returning to the border area, I will apply to Director Huang to modify your aircraft. Replace it with two 40mm Vickers cannons and let you have a good time!"
After hearing the captain's words, Fang Ziyi was stunned.
Although his flying time was quite long, the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain was his first time to participate in a large-scale battle.
Receiving such a high rating in just one day made him feel like he was living in a dream.
"Rudel? Who is this man? Judging from his name, he should be a foreigner. What big thing has he done?"
"This man is not that famous yet, but you will know later. He has many nicknames, the most widely circulated ones are Eagle of the Eastern Front and Paramecium King of the World!"
Fang Ziyi's air attack was just the tip of the iceberg of the Air Division's ground attack.
The pilots pulled up the fighter planes one after another, and after selecting a lucky person in the air, they completed another attack.
The cannons/machine guns under the wings of the Hurricane, Spitfire, and Red Sun rockets all fired together like a hot knife cutting through butter.
Almost few of the Japanese who were hit could leave their whole bodies behind. Broken limbs and broken arms could be seen everywhere, dyeing the land of Zhongtiao Mountain red and black.
However, the 41st Division is not a fool. They have been destroyed by the Kongyi Division all day long.
Facing these enemy planes licking the ground, the Japanese have been able to disperse quickly and find bunkers.
Although Hurricane and Spitfire look powerful, it is already difficult to find piles of enemies in the third wave of attacks, and the effect of ground attacks is getting weaker and weaker.
Affected by the ammunition load, the ammunition on the fighter jet has been almost exhausted.
Under the leadership of Captain Wang Hai, all the pilots did not take any notice. They raised their altitude and re-formed.
Although the pilots would leave one-third of their aircraft guns and bullets behind every time, who knew whether the Japanese army aviation would suddenly appear and fight them desperately.
If we are caught off guard, no one can bear the responsibility.
Even though the battle is not over yet, the soldiers of the 43rd Army can no longer contain their excitement. They cheered at the departing 1st Air Division on the defense line and watched the model workers return.
"It's so enjoyable! It feels so good to have an air force! It's been so many years! We finally have air supremacy!"
"Isn't that right! I've been fighting Maxim for a whole day, and it's not as good as a bomb from someone else's plane! The Eighth Route Army is so powerful! It's richer than the Central Army!"
The support of sixty-four fighter planes caused the Japanese to lose a lot of manpower and armored troops, and even a large-caliber heavy artillery was destroyed.
The most important thing is that the defenders recaptured the Shibaping position, which made the subsequent defensive work a lot easier!
······
On the northern line of Zhongtiao Mountain, the Japanese advance command post.
Half an hour after the 1st Kong Division left, Qingshui received a damage report from the front line.
At this time, the old devil was as silent as a volcano before it erupted. Even Kenkichi Ikegami, who independently formed the 9th Brigade, did not dare to talk to him.
Suddenly, a staff officer came running from outside. He held a telegram in his hand, handed it to his general with great anxiety, and then quietly took a small step back.
"idiot!"
After reading it, Qing Shui slapped the staff officer on the face with a big blow.
"Young thief Okamura Neiji! You don't deserve to be a man! How the hell do you attack! Our division only has 8 105 howitzers in total, and now 5 of them have been blown up by the Eighth Route Army! How can I fight with this!"
"You call me back now! Without the support of heavy artillery! Without the assistance of Army aviation! Even if all the 41st Division died on the position, it would be impossible to complete the advance!"
"That's easy to say. I don't know who gave away so many precious airplanes at once!"
"Hi!"
Qingshui Juju, who was getting angry, found that the staff officer in front of him was still standing still, and immediately stepped forward again.
"Don't forget to use honorifics in telegrams! Remember to ask for tactical guidance! Whoever is willing to take the blame!"
······
Behind Zhongtiao Mountain, on the northeast side of Hengling Pass,
A heavily armed elite Japanese team was hidden in the mountains and forests. They were staring at the command post of the 43rd Army.
Although the commander of the group army, Liu Mao'en, gave many orders and instructions to all military divisions to be on tight defense at the first level, they must also do a good job in the defense of the headquarters and important military locations.
But after a day of fighting, Army Commander Zhao Shiling still slacked off.
With the help of the Eighth Route Army Air Force, he even had the illusion that the Japanese were nothing special.
After all, it was a miracle that could not be imagined in the past for a non-direct army to withstand the attack of a division.
In the eyes of the elite Japanese team, the command post of the 43rd Army was no different from being undefended, and they had discovered the only hidden sentry that posed a threat.
There are more than sixty people in this team, including special high-tech spies who are proficient in Chinese and elite infantrymen of the North China Front Army.
Although there is still some gap compared with the Yamamoto special agent team, he is definitely a good player in infiltration raids, and his ability to cause damage is also amazing.
While captain Hirao Meizono was still thinking about his next action plan, a correspondent carrying a radio on his back came to him.
The other party bowed his head in salute and reported in a low voice:
"Hirao-kun, Commander Okamura Neiji just sent us a telegram. He ordered us to launch an attack from the 43rd Army headquarters in half an hour and cooperate with the 41st Division on the front to seize the northern defense line."
"If conditions permit, it would be best to destroy key military facilities such as enemy ammunition depots and hospitals."
This order filled Hirao Meizono's face with a fanatical expression.
The Japs who can be selected to enter Zhongtiao Mountain are all diehards brainwashed by militarism. These people regard the tasks assigned by their superiors as everything.
With the strength of their team, each of the above orders is very challenging.
But these elites have no fear at all. Instead, they regard it as a way to realize their own life value.
Hirao Meizono looked at the subordinates around him with sharp eyes, and then raised his wrist to look at the time.
"Warriors, the time has come to be loyal to His Majesty Tian Locust! We will start taking action in fifteen minutes!"
The first group attacked me head-on! Directly penetrate the headquarters of the enemy's 43rd Army! The second set of roundabout outflanks! Cut off the enemy's retreat! The third group went directly to destroy the opponent's arsenal! "
"This battle! We will win!"
······
Twenty minutes later, the 43rd Army command post.
At this time, Army Commander Zhao Shiling was in a very good mood. He looked at the ground in front of him with a smile, and he seemed to have a slight advantage over me.
The frontline troops not only held their positions, but were even able to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army in an effective counterattack. Such combat effectiveness was something that even the commander of his army had never imagined.
Although he may be investigated by the old man in the southwest capital after the war, he is not afraid of shadows and has no worries at all.
After carefully studying the strategic situation map, Zhao Shiling prepared to contact the 17th Army on the flanks to jointly consolidate the supply lines in the rear and the safety of the ferry.
But at this moment, he found that the call could not be reached.
Da da da!
Boom boom boom!
The sound of gunshots and grenade explosions rang out, and all doubts were answered.
Five minutes later, the commander of the security company broke in. This man was covered in blood and broke into the command post holding a handful of flower traps.
"Reporting to the commander, a group of Japs have reached our area. The brothers are currently at war with each other, and our battalion commander is directing the battle!"
"Considering safety issues, it is recommended that you follow our company to transfer!"
Zhao Shiling nodded and quickly picked up a pistol and helmet from the table. After putting on his clothes, he followed the soldiers of the guard company and left the command post.
Before leaving, he specially left someone to wait where he was.
If a Japs sneak in, they will detonate the explosives in the room so that the Japs cannot get any information.
Listening to the gunfire becoming less and less, everyone knew that the guard battalion had the upper hand.
Although Zhao Shiling did not pay much attention to the defense work of the headquarters, the advantage of having more people was too great. With only dozens of Japanese soldiers, it would be difficult to break in without automatic firepower.
"How many people are there in this group of enemies who attacked the headquarters?"
This question was somewhat difficult for the guard company commander. He thought for a long time and gave an estimated figure.
"There are about forty people. Their firepower is not very strong and they can't do anything. They should be the ones who sneak attack the Fifth Army headquarters and prepare to infiltrate and cause destruction."
"We are surrounded by our people, don't worry, there will be no problems!"
But at this moment, a huge explosion came from the distant munitions department, and everyone's attention was attracted.
at the same time! A bullet hit Zhao Shiling, and the commander of the 43rd Army fell straight to the ground.
"Protect the military seat!"
Although the guard company commander shouted, ten soldiers surrounded their commander. The remaining warriors took out their weapons and exchanged fire with the enemies who appeared.
During the fighting, soldiers continued to fall. However, with their bravery and bravery, the Japanese elite troops were still decimated.
"Save people quickly! Carry the military seat to the field hospital!"
"But company commander! In the explosion just now, the hospital was also blown up by the Japanese! There is a high probability that there are no doctors left alive!"
"What did you say!"
Hurry up, hurry up
