Chapter 679: Destructive Air Strike

"Your Excellency, Captain of the Regiment, our army was suddenly hit by unknown enemy artillery fire, and the troops suffered heavy losses. Even the Chief of Staff was shattered. At present, the entire Regiment has fallen into chaos under the sudden attack of the enemy. What follows?

….What should we do next?” Seeing the angry eyes of the commander in front of him, the commander of the guard squadron beside him quickly told what he knew about the situation.

"Nani, the attack of unknown artillery fire...how could this happen? What kind of artillery fire could destroy so many troop transport trucks of our army in a single salvo. Impossible, absolutely impossible..." A brief moment

After they passed by, Colonel Takahashi asked in disbelief.

"Your Excellency, the commander of the unit, I don't know what my position is. At present, more than half of the troops have been lost and they have fallen into chaos. It can almost be said that they have lost their combat effectiveness..."

"Bagya Road... ordered the troops to shrink immediately, and each unit organized defense on the spot... The communications staff immediately reported the situation of our army to the North China Front Army Headquarters and requested tactical guidance..." After the brief shock, he saw the convoy.

In the middle, Imperial soldiers were struggling in the raging fire. Colonel Takahashi reacted and gave a loud order.

"Ha Yi, your Excellency the captain..."

The Japanese reinforcements, an infantry regiment of Japanese soldiers, had not yet engaged in any direct exchange of fire with the Third Special Forces Regiment. Under the attack of more than a hundred rocket launchers, about two-thirds of the combat effectiveness of the entire regiment was lost.

, was almost crippled and no longer had the combat capability to continue the attack.

The second wave of reinforcements dispatched by the Japanese army did not rush to the battlefield until an hour later because there was no car transportation. However, at this moment, the Tianjin Airport, under the attack of the Second Special Operations Regiment, had become

There was a sea of ​​fire. About one hundred and eighty intact combat aircraft were also successfully flown into the sky under the control of pilots.

Li Xingguo, the highest commander among all pilots in the attack on Tianjin Airport, was driving the last light bomber in the airport, under the command of the tower, successfully took off, and completely reunited with his teammates in the sky. Total

All 186 combat aircraft of various types have taken to the sky and began to circle over the airport, waiting for his specific order to return to Fengtian Airport.

However, just when Li Xingguo was about to issue the order to return, the battle with continuous artillery fire on the ground came into his eyes. At the same time, the sight of the bomber's belly being filled with aerial bombs before taking off also came into view.

came to his mind.

Thinking of this, Li Xingguo's face immediately showed a strong murderous look. At the same time, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Having already made a decision in his heart, he quickly ordered into the microphone beside his mouth.

"Comrades, teammates of the Special Operations Division, in order to protect these aircraft, in order to cover us, we flew the aircraft successfully into the air. At present, we are surrounded by heavy Japanese troops. Now, with the aircraft in our hands, we have mastered all air supremacy in the entire battle.

.Retreat may be carried out at any time, but the ground combat troops, surrounded by heavy Japanese troops, will be difficult to successfully break through without troops to reinforce them."

"So, I decided to lead everyone and use our planes to cover the ground troops for a breakout. Now I order all combat aircraft, under the command of their respective squad leaders, to spread out to support the ground troops in operations. I will give you ten minutes

After ten minutes, all combat aircraft must consume all the ammunition on the aircraft, assemble above the airport, and return to Fengtian Airport."

"Captain, don't worry, I promise to complete the mission. Tonight, let the little devils have a taste of what it will be like after losing air support and being hit by superior air firepower..."

"Captain, please rest assured and promise to complete the mission. All the ammunition on the plane will be consumed on the little devils on the ground. Let them also taste the feeling of being bombed..."

"Captain, please rest assured, promise to complete the mission, and entertain the little devil well..."

..... As soon as captain Li Xingguo finished speaking, the excited voices of all the team leaders came from the earphones.

In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred combat aircraft hovering over the airport immediately dispersed in small groups, and quickly swooped over the area where the most intense firefights were on the ground and where the largest number of Japanese troops gathered.

On the road about five kilometers away from Tianjin Airport, a fire dragon composed of countless torches is rapidly advancing towards the location of the airport. This two-kilometer-long team is the Japanese North China Front. After learning of the first wave of reinforcements,

After the news that the army suffered a devastating blow, an infantry regiment was once again mobilized from the Tianjin Defense Force.

And less than two kilometers directly in front of this highway, the first batch of reinforcements sent by the Japanese army, an infantry regiment, with about a thousand people left after a fierce attack, was under the command of regiment commander Takahashi Colonel

, and the Third Special Operations Regiment were engaged in a fierce battle for position.

Although the Third Special Operations Regiment's combat effectiveness is very strong, this strength is limited to various special operations. In regular field battles, facing the Japs with superior troops, the Third Special Operations Regiment does not have much advantage.

At this moment, the battle for position between the two armies has entered the most intense stage, and can be said to be a critical moment of equal importance.

It is conceivable that at such a fierce moment, if the effective force of an infantry regiment of the Japanese army suddenly joins the battlefield and surrounds the two Chinese and German troops who are fighting fiercely, the Third Special Operations Regiment, which is in the midst of a bitter battle, will fall into a kind of situation.

What kind of situation will it face and what kind of ending will it face?

At this moment, captain Li Xingguo, who knew the entire battlefield situation well, did not hesitate at all. He immediately led a squadron of light bombers behind him and rushed towards the location of the second wave of Japanese reinforcements on the ground. He was ready to use bombers to stop the second wave of Japanese reinforcements.

The second wave of reinforcements will reduce the pressure on the third ground special operations regiment.

"Comrades, the teammates of the Third Special Operations Regiment have reached a critical moment of life and death. Now I order to carry out indiscriminate bombing of the Japanese reinforcements, defeat the Japanese reinforcements, and reduce the pressure on the Third Special Operations Regiment on the ground..."

Li Xingguo's order immediately aroused the most primitive blood in the hearts of the soldiers. As soon as the captain finished speaking, the dozens of bombers following Li Xingguo were like bloodthirsty eagles that had discovered their prey.

Quickly dive towards your bombing target.

"Buzz buzz..." A huge roar of aircraft, from far to near, quickly reached the ears of every kid on the ground. The fire dragon, which was moving quickly just now, suddenly stopped in place.

.

Because, in the understanding of these little devils, the combat aircraft equipped by the Japanese Empire do not yet have the ability to fly at night. Facing the roar of engines in the sky, everyone's faces showed a look of doubt.

.Some soldiers are even imagining that the Tianjin Airport they are about to reinforce has fallen. Otherwise, why would the airport pilot risk the cost of crashing the plane and rashly flying the plane into the sky in the dark night?

Ordinary soldiers have this idea, and Colonel Kawada, who is the supreme commander of this reinforcement force, also has this thought. Captain Kawada, who is sitting in the only armored vehicle in the entire reinforcement force, listens to the huge sound coming from the sky.

Roaring Sheng also frowned and asked the chief of staff beside him.

"Chief of Staff, what's going on? Where did the plane come from in the sky? As far as I know, in the entire Pingjin area, only Tianjin Airport has combat aircraft..."

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I don't know even though I'm a low-ranking officer... According to our army's combat regulations, in order to avoid the cost of aircraft crashes and casualties caused by taking off at night, unless there is an emergency, any combat aircraft is prohibited from taking off hastily at night. If you do not take off at night,

Unexpectedly, the current Tianjin Airport has reached a critical moment of life and death. It may even be..." the chief of staff replied carefully.

"Nani? What you mean is that the reason why these planes took off rashly, risking the risk of crashing and killing people, is that the Tianjin Airport where we need reinforcements has probably fallen..." After understanding the chief of staff's answer, the coalition

The captain asked with a shocked look on his face.

However, after wanting to understand the specific meaning of the chief of staff's words, commander Kawada was immediately relieved. Then, he ordered to the chief of staff in front of him.

"Chief of Staff, immediately send a telegram to the airport garrison to inquire about the current situation at the airport. At the same time, call Colonel Takahashi at the front to see if the troops have broken through the Chinese defense line..."

"Ha Yi, your Excellency the captain..."

"Wait a moment, order the communications troops to immediately call the aviation troops in the air, get in touch with the pilots in the air, and inquire about the specific situation." Captain Kawada, the commander of the regiment, continued to order.

However, just when the chief of staff opened the door and had not had time to step out of the armored vehicle, a sharp whistling sound reached everyone's ears. Following closely behind, the commander of the regiment who was riding in the armored vehicle also had a look on his face.

In an instant, time became pale.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, be careful, air strikes..."

"Boom boom boom..."

Aerial bombs weighing 50 kilograms flew continuously along the road, falling like raindrops in the middle of the dense formation. The armored vehicle in which the Japanese commander was riding, this special target, was located exactly in the center of the attack range.

The explosive power of a fifty-kilogram aerial bomb cannot be compared to the explosion of a 105mm rocket. As each aerial bomb exploded, huge fireballs began to rise into the sky on the road. In

On the road without any cover, with the explosion point as the center, all the Japanese soldiers within a radius of tens of meters fell into pieces in a pool of blood like cut wheat.

As for the armored command vehicle carrying the Japanese commander Colonel Kawada, the chief of staff and others, there was also no accident. Amidst the explosion of a close-range aerial bomb, it was thrown high like a toy.

The sky. Then, it fell heavily on both sides of the road and turned into a pile of scrap metal.

As for Colonel Kawada who was riding in the armored vehicle, although he was protected by countless guards, he could not escape the fate of death in the face of such a powerful aerial bomb. Together with the armored vehicle and several staff officers in the vehicle, they were severely thrown

It was turned into a meat pie, not even a complete body was left.

Captain Kawada, the commander of the regiment who was protected by an armored vehicle, was not spared from the explosions of aerial bombs. It is conceivable that the little Japs who were placed in front and behind the armored vehicles, advancing rapidly in two lines without any protection, were ordinary

Infantry. Faced with such a powerful bomb, there is basically only one way out, and that is to die on the spot.

A plane and dozens of aerial bombs fell in a straight line into the Japanese marching column and exploded. In just a few seconds, in the marching column that stretched for several kilometers, a section of 500 meters long appeared.

In this 500-meter-long gap, most of the Japanese soldiers of the infantry brigade fell in a pool of blood and turned into corpses.

After one plane dropped its bombs and climbed to a high altitude again, another plane followed closely behind and appeared above the marching column of the little Japanese and began to drop bombs for the second round.

One round after another. For a time, one after another aerial bombs, like rain, fell continuously in the middle of the Japanese marching column that stretched for several kilometers. Each Japanese soldier, as if

Under the rain of bombs and the explosion of such powerful aerial bombs, there was no possibility of survival.

The screams of soldiers and the explosions of aerial bombs began to sound like a symphony on the road that stretched for several kilometers. In less than ten minutes, dozens of bombers carried more than ten tons of ammunition in the sky.

, all poured on the heads of these little devils, sending swarms of little devils to the west.

More than 20 bombers successfully completed the bombing mission. On the road, the reinforcements of a Japanese infantry regiment, faced with the bombers raging in the sky, experienced for the first time what it was like to be bombed without air force reinforcements. And the ten-minute bombing

During the process, the only thing they could do was to run for their lives and pray, hoping that they could escape the bombers in the air.

However, in this ten-minute fierce bombing, most of the little devils' wishes came true. Faced with more than twenty bombers and the saturation bombing of more than ten tons of aerial bombs, on the road that stretched for less than three kilometers,

It was almost plowed by bombs like raindrops, and almost no intact land could be found.

As the gunpowder smoke shrouding the highway slowly dissipated, the tragic scene on the highway slowly appeared in everyone's eyes. On the several kilometers long highway, the originally smooth road surface was now densely packed.

There are large pits with a depth of two meters. As for the surrounding areas of the large pits, there are the broken arms of the little devils, the bloody corpses, and the floating soil stained red with blood...

As for the reinforcements of an infantry regiment of the Japanese army, after ten minutes of intensive bombing, as the explosions subsided, the number of soldiers on the entire road who could still stand up was no longer less than the strength of a squadron. As for the entire road,

On the highway, the heart-rending screams of injuries and illnesses can be heard everywhere...

On the road, under the reflection of piles of bonfires. Seeing the huge results achieved by more than 20 light bombers behind him on the road that stretched for several kilometers, Captain Li Xingguo, who was leading the team, immediately showed excitement on his face.

Smiling, he ordered with great excitement into the microphone beside his mouth.

"Comrades, you have done a good job. Under our repeated bombings, a Japanese regiment of Japanese soldiers has lost its combat effectiveness on the ground. Now I order all combat aircraft to return immediately and head towards the airport. Then, form

The flight formation is preparing to rush back to Fengtian Airport before dawn..."

"Yes, captain, get ready to return..." Li Xingguo's voice had just finished, and the equally excited voices of his teammates came from the center. It was obvious that at this moment, the teammates flying the plane were preparing for their first time.

I feel happy and excited to achieve such great results with the results in my hands.

"Okay, return immediately..." Li Xingguo ordered with unusual decisiveness. As he spoke, his plane flew away from the battlefield with a sharp whistling sound.

In ten minutes, more than 20 light bombers led by Li Xingguo used bombs prepared by the Japanese to successfully defeat a Japanese infantry regiment, causing the infantry regiment to completely lose its combat effectiveness. At the same time, the Japanese army was in trouble.

The Third Special Operations Regiment successfully rescued the enemy from the encirclement that was about to be formed by the Japanese army. Of course, these more than 20 light bombers were only responsible for sorties, accounting for less than one-sixth of all combat aircraft.

As for the remaining more than a hundred combat aircraft, in these ten minutes, they visited all the Japanese military bases and military camps around the Tianjin Airport. Even the Tianjin Pier, which was about ten kilometers away from the airport, was attacked.

The arrival of dozens of fighter bombers.

The entire dock, together with more than a dozen large warehouses that stocked a large amount of supplies for the North China Front Army. Under the continuous bombing by a large number of bombers, no one was spared, and everything turned into a sea of ​​flames. At the same time, those staying at the Tianjin dock

Several warships also turned into balls of fire under the sudden aerial attack, waiting for the end of sinking.

In ten minutes, all the brightly lit Japanese and puppet military camps and important military facilities in the entire Pingjin area became the best bombing targets for more than a hundred combat aircraft.

As the ten-minute bombing ended, the Supreme Commander of the North China Front Army immediately received one telegram after another, like snowflakes, asking for help. And it was not until this moment that the Supreme Commander of the North China Front Army clearly understood that this time the Eighth Route Army

The real purpose of the operation was an accident in Shijiazhuang, far away in Hebei Province, and the Tianjin Airport, which the Eighth Route Army had coveted for a long time.

Of course, what made the commander even more desperate was that within ten minutes, more than a hundred combat aircraft from Tianjin Airport, in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, almost dealt a devastating blow to the entire North China Front Army.
