Once again, the Japanese charge was beaten down by the soldiers.

Looking at the large corpses lying in front of the position and the tanks still emitting flames and black smoke, the soldiers couldn't help but let out a cheer.

But Staff Officer Liang looked at the battlefield with some concern and said to Zhang Chi: "Tuanza, this devil will have such a time, and there may be a next time!" ”

Zhang Chi nodded, he understood what Staff Officer Liang was worried about, the battle just now...... In fact, it was not that there was anything wrong with the Japanese tactics, but that they were ambushed.

And this ambush can only be used once, and the next time the Japanese will definitely be on guard.

When the time comes...... How should the Chinese army deal with the Japanese tanks?

Bring the tank up? Or get anti-tank guns up? None of these seemingly feasible methods would work when the Japanese army had air supremacy.

After thinking about it, Zhang Chi could only order: "Before the devil plane comes up, dig a few anti-tank trenches on both sides of the mountain and lay mines!" ”

"Yes!" The warriors answered.

However, Zhang Chi knew that this was just an expedient measure, the Japanese army now had more soldiers and more artillery, and anti-tank trenches and mines were almost a problem that could be solved by guiding the warships to bomb them.

But that's all I can do now, and if I can delay it for a while, it's a while.

Sure enough, after a few hours of silence, another group of tanks came up.

And this time, they used warships and mortars to blow up the way first...... Because the area was full of Japanese corpses, stumps and broken arms were flying everywhere at one time, and dirt, blood, and corpses were lifted up into the sky by shells and then fell down and mixed together, and sometimes it was impossible to tell whether it was flesh or mud.

And at this time the anti-tank trenches of the fighters had not even had time to be completed...... The soldiers were so tired that the battle had lasted for more than 20 hours, and their bones were about to fall apart, and the anti-tank trench was a big project, and the Japanese seaplanes would come from time to time to interfere with the strafing. So the anti-tank trench was completed only a short section.

Looking at the more than ten tanks that drove up in front of the position, there was still a black Japanese army behind them...... Zhang Chi couldn't help sighing, but he was afraid that this time it would be difficult to escape.

The warriors seem to be aware of this, they are not fools, and the long hours of fighting have allowed them to judge with great confidence whether they can hold off the enemy's attack, and this is the case...... It's beyond the reach of the warriors.

But they didn't complain, they watched all this coldly, and even a few soldiers leisurely lit cigarettes in the trenches, and then repeated the topic they didn't know how many times: "After this battle, what do you want to do when you go back?" ”

"I want to open a teahouse! I heard that the military money we issued is worth a lot of money in China! It's a pity that I don't know if there is that blessing flower! ”

"Me. I just want to find a mother-in-law and sleep with her in my arms every day! ”

This caused a burst of laughter from the surrounding soldiers.

Zhang Chi knew why they behaved like this, they were waiting for the last moment to come, and they hoped to return to their hometown with these dreams with their souls...... For them, it can be said to be a relief.

However, they were unable to do so.

Because at this moment, there was a whistling of warplanes in the sky, followed by the sound of machine guns and explosions. Before Zhang Chi and the others could react, the Japanese tanks that were still majestically driving towards them in front of the position turned into fireballs in a blink of an eye, and the Japanese troops following them were also fiercely strafed and bombed.

"It's a Yankee's plane!" The townsfolk shouted: "The Yankees' plane has come back!" ”

The fighters couldn't help but burst into cheers, and some of them even took off their towels and waved them excitedly in the air.

Zhang Chi slowly raised his head and looked into the air. Sure enough, I saw that there were more than a dozen more US "Wildcat" fighters and P400 fighters in the sky.

The "Wildcat" fighter was naturally going to deal with the seaplanes of the Japanese army in the air...... That was a breeze for the "Wild Cats", you must know that these "Wild Cats" usually fought against the Japanese Zero fighters, and suddenly the opponent became a stupid and slow seaplane, so it was like a child chasing and fighting. The Japanese seaplanes, on the other hand, suffered from their slow speed, and they couldn't run even if they wanted to.

Although the P400 fighter is deeply affected by the US military...... The P400 is the export version of the U.S. military's P39, which was originally treated as garbage by the U.S. military. The export version is still used. As we all know, the export version of weapons and equipment is often used to foreign countries because they are unwilling to leak their own country's high and new technology, so they will always delete and delete some useful things, but the Yankees did not expect that they would also use this "export version" themselves.

This is actually their helplessness, the loss of fighters is too great, and they are not in a hurry to transport them from China, so they can only borrow the fighters in Austria's inventory.

So for US pilots, this P400 can be described as a fighter in the garbage...... Zhang Chi is deeply aware of this, because the pilots who flew the P400 in the "Cactus" air team were always called "useless zero" by other pilots.

The reason why it will be called "useless zero" is because the United States also has a fighter model of P40, that is, the model equipped by the Chinese Flying Tigers, and the P400 has one more useless zero than the P40, and the performance is not only not strengthened but not as good as the P40, and it happens that the Japanese army's zero fighter is a "useful zero", so it is a stark contrast.

However, the performance of this P400 fighter against air targets may not be to the liking of US military pilots, and it is another matter when dealing with ground targets.

The reason for this is that the P400 is armed with 4000 rounds of 4000 rounds of ammunition in the wings, two 400 mm machine guns with 12.7 rounds of ammunition, and a 30 mm machine gun with 37 shells......

THE TOP ARMOR OF THE JAPANESE TANK WAS ONLY 10MM, AND THE 12.7MM MACHINE GUN ON THE P400 WAS BEATEN INTO SCRAP METAL WITH A SINGLE DIVE SHOT, NOT TO MENTION THE 37MM MACHINE GUN, WHICH TURNED THE JAPANESE TANK INTO A FIREBALL. As for the Japanese infantry...... That was when the four machine guns on the wings of the P400 showed their strengths, and they swooped down only for a while, and there was a gust of wind on the ground, and under the strong wind were groups of Japanese soldiers who were beaten into a sieve.

"Zhang!" At this time, Pete, who was next to the walkie-talkie, excitedly reported to Zhang Chi: "It's the 'Cactus' Air Team, they're back!" General Halsey said that this is only the first batch of fighters to return, and there will be more to come, and the total number will reach two hundred and thirty! ”

"Two hundred and thirty!" Hearing this number, Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned, Halsey really regarded Kuah Island as an aircraft carrier.
