486 Precision bombing

The 3 anti-defense guns reserved by the division headquarters as a reserve were easily eliminated in this way. These weapons were supposed to be deployed in a position where the enemy must pass and patiently waited for an ambush, but the asymmetry of intelligence allowed them to run into an enemy who was waiting for their work at their weakest.

Lieutenant General Miyazaki shouted loudly into the phone in the headquarters, hoping that all the men and horses would attack according to his intention and block the enemy. He is a careful person who has room for work at any time, and there are still brigades directly under the division and regiment and some anti-tank weapons that can be disassembled and distributed. In addition, a main force wing is monitoring the new 38th Division in the Qingdun River valley, and if necessary, it can also allocate some troops, and it is not a problem to hold on for a few days according to the planned strategy of retreating one by one and thwarting the enemy's advance.

The drone in the sky has been reconnoitring his headquarters, and through radio measurements, he has found the approximate place, confirming that his headquarters is separated from the communications unit, and he distributes the order through the telephone and the communication corps, which seems to be a bit cumbersome. But apparently out of some cunning caution, he split his headquarters in two, guarding against being overwhelmed by the enemy. It seems that the bamboo building is the headquarters of the division, because there are many motorcycles and war horses parked in the shade of the trees nearby, and soldiers come out from time to time to pass orders everywhere, and a pile of tents 500 meters away is his communications unit.

There is only one drone*, of course, you have to confirm the location of the enemy commander first. Cheng Dayang decided to take it a step further. He summarized all aspects of the intelligence and came to the conclusion that he came back at the right time, otherwise Lin Xiuxuan would have let the Japanese block and destroy him.

When they first left, the two sides agreed on their respective tasks, Cheng Dayang was responsible for blocking the Japanese Combined Fleet in the South Pacific and waiting for an opportunity to destroy its capital ships; Lin Xiuxuan should try to fight a situation in Burma, the best result is to repel the Japanese army, followed by to gain a foothold in the north, now it seems that Cheng Dayang has annihilated the Japanese naval aircraft carrier; Lin Xiuxuan's side was too bad, not only could he not lead the expeditionary force to turn defeat into victory, but also was in danger of falling into the enemy's encirclement. Of course, Cheng Dayang can also see that there is a deviation in history from the transportation situation of Sittwe Port, and the Japanese army in Burma has long exceeded the original estimate of 4 divisions and regiments, and from the monitoring radio, there are 5 divisions and regimental headquarters and 2 independent brigade headquarters. There are about 150,000 troops.

"Political commissar, look at the retreat of the expeditionary force, why is it so cramped, the enemy forces behind are chasing so closely, and the front can't open the situation."

As he speaks, he zooms in to see a burning Grant tank.

"Perhaps, this is already the best situation that the forest can fight, after all, there are more enemies than expected."

"At the beginning, he said that there were three endings of upper, middle and lower, but he was going to fight the worst, and he was going to India. It seems that it may not be there yet. ”

"In its current form, it does. We've got to help them get the situation out of the way. ”

With the current expeditionary force's long snake formation, separated by two hundred kilometers from one end to the other, the Japanese in front of them have set up positions one after another, and it is obvious that they are preparing to exchange space for time, according to the Japanese virtue of fighting to the death and not retreating, it is difficult to open up this passage of life and death, once the Japanese army catches up behind, it is estimated that the expeditionary force will flee to the surrounding mountains, and there is no difference from the original history, or even worse.

"Lao Cheng, if you can't get the enemy's command unchecked, don't take the risk, it's better to blow up the nearby communications squadron."

The commissar suddenly made a strange suggestion.

"I'm eighty percent sure that the enemy's division headquarters is in that main building. Once the bomb is right, the enemy will be leaderless. ”

"Yes, I estimate that there is more than eighty percent of the chance, but the current situation of the expeditionary force cannot be missed. So, I think it's better to hit the key nodes. ”

"Just blow up the radio, and the command can still deliver messages through cavalry and motorcycles?"

"Yes, but the command efficiency will drop a lot, and I want to slow down the enemy's movements, which is what the forest needs most now, so I suggest not to risk a surprise victory, just follow the safest one. I think the forest department will seize the opportunity. ”

"Well, what he said makes sense, Lin Xiuxuan is certainly brainless, but with Chu Ting's presence, he is finally smart."

Cheng Dayang clasped his hands and said, this is the first time in his life that he has praised the chief of the Chu Pavilion, if there is no Lin Existence, it is difficult for him to say such a thing.

The drone moved the aiming laser away from the top of the main building and turned to a tent 500 meters away.

"Wait, I just detected the approach of the US reconnaissance plane, and I will drop the bomb when it comes." Cheng Dayang reminded.

"Yes!."

An American P38 fighter plane flew into northern Myanmar from the Bay of Bengal, and the pilot looked nervous and looked around for fear of bumping into a Japanese fighter. Of course, he preferred to fly at high altitudes, so that no Japanese army plane could catch up with him, but reconnaissance missions required flying at low altitudes, at least under the clouds.

As soon as Stilwell escaped, he was anxious to know the situation of the Chinese army behind, he did not believe the report of the Chinese army, and asked the reconnaissance squadron left behind by the 10th Air Force to conduct continuous daytime reconnaissance to ensure that the most timely situation was seen.

There was nothing * on this plane, only a drop fuel tank. After arriving at the mission area, the plane swooped down from the clouds, ready to take pictures at a high angle, and was immediately hit by heavy ground artillery fire.

The pilot was still flying the P40 not long ago, and it seemed that he was not so hated, and the Japanese ground artillery response was always a beat slower, although the P40 used a liquid-cooled engine, which was different from all Japanese fighters; Poor P38 is beaten when he shows his head, this cargo chief is really strange.

Seeing that the fire net was looming, he increased the angle of the dive and dropped the auxiliary fuel tank at the same time. Hopefully, by increasing the speed by 20 to 30 miles, the enemy will not have time to calculate the amount of advance. He also had to keep looking back to make sure that no enemy planes were coming from 6 o'clock, and when he turned back, he vaguely felt something flashing in the sky, it was some kind of metallic luster, maybe an airplane, at least 7,000 meters high. He glanced over there and saw a black dot grazing his plane.

A loud explosion was heard on the ground. The American pilot suspected that his 165-gallon auxiliary fuel tank had been thrown into the Japanese ammunition depot, and of course even if he was hit, it would still be impossible to detonate it. He didn't have time to think so much, so he quickly turned and flew towards the sea, avoiding the fire net and escaping.

* dropped by the drone, precisely thrown at the head of the enemy's communications squadron. Most of the squadron's personnel and all equipment were underwritten on the spot, and the attack successfully blamed the head of the American plane. Otherwise, it would have been a very strange incident for the well-guarded division headquarters to be attacked 18 kilometers behind the battle line, because no artillery could have hit such a distance.

After the explosion, Lieutenant General Gong Qi rushed out of the bamboo building as soon as possible, and saw a double-tailed enemy plane slipping away, and his own communications unit in the distance was wiped out. But before leaving, he still had a dozen orders to give, and the troops were scattered within a radius of 2,000 square kilometers. He marveled at such a precise attack, he had never seen such a lucky bomb in his life. In particular, the opponent did not drop a dive bomber, or even an attack aircraft.

He inevitably became superstitious, recalling that in Shanghai, the Chinese army fired thousands of rounds of artillery of all kinds below 150 millimeters, trying to hit the ammunition piled up by the river on the first day of the landing of the marines. At that time, the soldiers said that this was a symbol of China's exhaustion of gas and the decline of the country's fortunes.

But today, the American plane that grazed overhead threw only one* and blew up the most critical position, and he would rather throw this lesson* at his own command than there. And this bombing, which gave him a very ominous premonition.

Lin Xiuxuan was notified by the drone that the enemy's communications squadron was eliminated, he thought that the * was worth it, the Japanese army had officers who could replace the commander at any time, and the military quality of a large Zuo wing commander and the commander of the lieutenant general's division would not be too different, but they did not have backup equipment. He felt that Cheng Dayang had opened up a little bit in the past three days, of course, he suddenly came back from the South Pacific, there must have been something wrong, and he had to wipe his ass himself.

At this moment, Qin Xiaosu had already commanded his Stuart tank to rush into the enemy's mountain artillery position from behind. Successfully wiped out the arrogant artillery unit of the Japanese army.

Ma Qiang took up the road and began to advance behind the enemy's lines. When the units of the 31st Division encountered an enemy situation, a communication requesting various kinds of support was quickly sent, but the division headquarters could not receive it. Each unit can only fight on its own and deal with the enemy situation in front of them.

The two Chinese tank units, one in the south and one in the north, were constantly dividing and mixing up behind the enemy's flanks and creating conditions for the assault of the troops in front. Seeing that there is no fire support, the fire is almost over. Lin Xiuxuan consulted with Zhou Youfu and asked him to go out and organize an effective attack. Zhou Youfu has been holding the main force of the synthetic group and has not moved, he has a little bit of his own thoughts, he doesn't want to use his old foundation to fight the first formation, seeing that the troops sent out by Lin Linqi to attack in depth have an effect, the enemy's artillery fire has weakened significantly, and it will be a little late if he doesn't show his hand at this time.

He asked the artillery to bombard half a base in front and behind the enemy's position, and this effort allowed nine 221 tanks with a platoon of infantry to make a detour in depth from the road he had reconnoitred, and the only requirement was to occupy a commanding height wedged into the enemy's defensive line.

These chariots have a very soft sound, hidden behind the sound of artillery, far less easy to attract attention than tanks, and at this moment the enemy is bombed by the six gods and no owner, and these light chariots are suddenly detoured to the side. The infantry took a commanding height with a single charge, disrupting the rhythm of the enemy's defense.

The only Grant tank on the front covered the charge of a thousand infantry, and the wedge inserted by Zhou Youfu made the enemy's defense difficult to handle, and the infantry quickly rushed into the trenches to engage the enemy in a white-knuckle battle. Gou survived the Japanese army and fled into the nearby forest.
