Chapter 949: Bombardment and Indiscriminate Bombardment
In order to avoid greater losses, Commander Huang ordered his troops to suspend the attack, immediately retreat, and hide in the anti-artillery hole to avoid the bombing.
Finding that the main force of the Chinese army had withdrawn, the devil officers on the position became excited, and wanted to rush out of the trenches to launch a counterattack, but they were pulled by the devil staff officers around them and persuaded them: "Sir, you must not attack, they retreat not because they can't take their positions, but because our planes have come to reinforce them!" ”
As soon as the devil officer heard this, he no longer ordered his subordinates to launch a counterattack, but listened to the advice of the devil's staff officer and ordered the devil soldiers to continue digging pits, digging deep pits and bulletproof trenches, in order to prepare for a large-scale attack by the Chinese army that would attack more fiercely after the bombing of the planes.
These devils knew in their hearts that the support of their planes could only relieve the offensive pressure they were currently experiencing, but it could not completely solve the problem that they were now besieged by the Chinese army.
So these devils immediately lit a fire on the ground and used it to send a distress signal to the bombers flying in the sky, and the means of communication such as radio and telephone were all ineffective, and only this primitive means of reporting could be used. Hopefully, the pilots of the Imperial Army Air Forces in the sky will be able to detect this signal.
But the next situation was greatly unexpected by these devil officers, before these devil bombers entered the sky above the Songjiaao position, suddenly a series of fierce anti-aircraft artillery fire came out on the ground, and one after another shells roared This devil bomber that rushed into mid-air exploded near them, and the flying shrapnel and fragments rushed towards the devil bomber at high speed, so frightened that the devil pilot immediately pulled up the nose of the plane and fled into the high clouds above to avoid the anti-aircraft artillery shells that came up below!
Don't look at the virtue of these devil planes who usually show off their martial power, but they are also afraid of the anti-aircraft artillery on the ground, besides, the bomber is extremely bulky, it is filled with fuel and bombs, once it is hit by the fine shrapnel of the anti-aircraft artillery shell, then it will immediately reignite and burst into flames, if the fuel and ammunition inside are detonated, then the bomber will be finished immediately.
Finding that the devil bomber was hiding in the high-altitude clouds, the artillery brothers in the anti-aircraft artillery position on the ground immediately cheered, although they did not shoot down a devil plane, but they were able to drive the devil plane in the sky into the high-altitude clouds and hide, which can be regarded as reducing the defensive pressure of the infantry brothers who were fighting with the devils on the position below!
But soon, those devil bombers came out of the high-altitude clouds again, and began to dive viciously towards the Chinese troops on the position, with the sharp air friction sound of the bombers diving down, one by one huge aerial bombs were thrown down, and at the same time splashed down or raindrops of machine cannon shells, all of a sudden the Gui soldiers who had been hiding in the trenches were beaten into several sections, the flesh and blood were blurred, miserable, miserable howls, resounding through the Songjiaao Valley.
Although Commander Huang and the others immediately started digging a pit after hearing the air defense siren, after all, the speed of the devil's plane was not as fast as the devil's plane, and before they could dig a few shovels, the devil's machine shells came over, and he beat the soldiers who dug the pit in front of him into several sections, and the huge aerial bombs fell, and the smoke and dirt from the explosion went straight into the air, and he blew up dozens of soldiers on the position without a trace, and he could not even find the bones.
There was some panic and nervousness among the brothers of the Gui army on the forward position, they were not afraid of the intensive charge of the little devils, but they had a psychological shadow for this kind of aircraft bombing, and now the two divisions of the Gui army were all blown up by the devil's planes and naval artillery in only half a day on the Songhu battlefield, this kind of tragic scene is still in front of them now, how can they not be scared?
Han Fei soon discovered this situation, he hurriedly sent a telegram to Commander Huang, asking them to immediately dig anti-artillery holes to avoid the bombing of the devil plane, and the special forces immediately began to lure the enemy to action, contain the devil troops, and divert the attention of the devil bombers in the sky, so as to reduce the pressure on the Gui army brothers on the frontal position.
Commander Huang received reinforcements from Han Fei, and his heart was relieved a lot, so the position of the Gui army quickly returned to normal, and those who dug the pit continued to dig the pit, and the brothers below immediately organized anti-aircraft fire, fired into the air with machine guns, or released smoke grenades into the air to resist the bombing of the devil plane.
Commander Xue of the 47th Division also suffered a lot in this wanton and indiscriminate bombardment by the devils, and a large number of his brothers were killed and wounded, so angry that Division Commander Xue held a Czech machine gun and desperately strafed the devil bombers in mid-air.
It is estimated that the devil bomber in mid-air found Division Commander Xue who was shooting with a gun, and hurriedly made a big turn, and then swooped down towards him, and the cronies next to him couldn't see it, and hurriedly grabbed Master Xue and shouted: "Master, hide!" The devil plane rushed down! ”
Division Commander Xue was fighting vigorously, where to pay attention to the reminders of his cronies, at this time, a string of machine shells fell, and a series of dazzling sparks jumped up not far from him, and the jumping pieces hit the palm of Division Commander Xue's hand, so painful that he couldn't hold the Czech style for a while, let go, and the machine gun fell to the ground.
He was suddenly pushed to the ground by the two cronies around him, and when he got up, he found that the backs of the two cronies around him had been shot out by the machine cannon shells with two bowl-sized holes, and the red blood gushed outward.
Master Xue was furious, but he didn't have anything at hand that could be used to hit the devil's plane, so he had to jump and curse again and again, so that he could vent the anger in his heart a little, and at this moment, a sharp-eyed subordinate pointed to the sky in the southwest direction and shouted: "Look! There's a plane over there, too! ”
Master Xue was shocked, cold sweat came down on his back, it's really fucking unlucky, the devil plane here hasn't gone back yet, and the plane is coming from the southwest again, is it possible that we are going to be blown up here by the devil plane this time?
He hurriedly picked up the binoculars and took a closer look over there, and slowly his face turned cloudy, and finally put down the binoculars and shouted happily to his subordinates: "Haha, it's our plane coming!" I didn't expect it, it's so rare! ”
