"Ikeda-kun, you're in charge of the air defense position on the left."

"Ohara-kun, you're in charge ·····"

“······”

"Leave the central position to me."

As soon as the devil pilots in charge of the command pressed the control stick, the formation of five Type 97 dive bombers that had been hovering at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters suddenly dispersed, and each swooped down along a different route.

I have to say that the little devil army aviation pilot is very capable.

While the third group of five planes pressed down and dived to launch an offensive against the air defense position, the first group hovering on the edge of Zhao Jiayu's airspace and the second group hovering in the central airspace also lowered their altitude at the same time and launched an attack on Zhao Jiayu's flanks and the center with a rapid dive.

The cooperation between the three groups and the fifteen pilots is very tacit.

Under normal circumstances, when a fixed air defense position is faced with a multi-pronged attack and even encounters a threat to itself, it will inevitably be clumsy and make mistakes in the middle of its busyness, resulting in a great reduction in its anti-aircraft firepower and a decrease in its air defense efficiency.

But...

At this time, Zhao Jiayu's air defense company was abnormal everywhere.

···

"The little devil pilot's ability is really not blowing."

On the air defense position on the top of the mountain, Wen Ye, the commander of the air defense company, held a telescope and looked at the fifteen devil planes that swooped down in Zhao Jiayu's airspace, and sighed with serious emotion.

By now, the fifty heavy machine guns and twelve 20 anti-aircraft guns that were the first to fire have been entangled with ten devil planes for almost ten minutes.

Five planes on the edge, five in the center, and the ten planes of the little devils have been repeatedly tested at an altitude of 800 meters to 1,500 meters, and the ceasefire of anti-aircraft fire is close to it, and they are far away when they open fire.

At a distance of 800 meters, the M2 heavy machine gun has the ultimate anti-aircraft altitude, and the trajectory of the 12.7 mm bullet at this height has completely lost its accuracy, and its power has also been greatly reduced, and 1,500 meters is the ultimate anti-aircraft altitude of the 20 mm anti-aircraft gun.

But the devil plane is notoriously thin-skinned and stuffed, and even a heavy machine gun bullet with a large drop in power can pose enough threat, not to mention the 20mm gun.

And fifty heavy machine guns, twelve 20 anti-aircraft guns fired a rather dense barrage.

It's just that so far, there hasn't been a single little devil plane that has fallen, and not even one that has been injured, Fumino can see from the flight attitude of the devil plane, these ten devil planes are unharmed.

Although part of the reason is that these shooters are fighting air defense for the first time and have serious inexperience in air defense, the main reason is that these devil pilots are really powerful.

At the beginning of four or three years, the little devil army pilots had not yet collapsed.

"But... Hey. ”

praised it, and then Fumino turned pale, and instantly became murderous, at this time, the devil's plane was already approaching a meter of high speed, reaching the range of 20 anti-aircraft guns, and it was about to reach the anti-aircraft range of heavy machine guns.

At this moment, Fumino thought of when he had taken over the air defense company at the beginning.

At that time, he was just a machine gunner, although he had a lot of research on fighting devil planes, but it was just a little experience that he pondered by himself, and at that time he did not have the slightest confidence in leading an air defense company, after all, including him, all the members were novices, and he was afraid of bringing the troops down, and once wanted to refuse to serve as a company commander.

Li Yunlong said this to him at that time:

No command experience? Inexperienced shooter? The air defense team is not tacit enough?

It doesn't matter.

Experience is a thing that comes out of actual combat, and tacit understanding is also sharpened by actual combat, and the little devil will definitely continue to bomb our independent regiment in the future, and when the time comes, you will take the air defense company to eight times or ten times of actual combat, whether it is experience or tacit understanding, you will have it.

Anti-aircraft artillery air defense, ten defenses and nine air? It doesn't matter, if one is not enough, there will be ten, and if ten is not enough, there will be a hundred.

"All of them fire, take down the devil plane for me."

Fumino's tone was equally murderous.

In an instant, under the shield and camouflage net, twenty 40 anti-aircraft guns, thirty-eight 20 anti-aircraft guns, and fifty M2 heavy machine guns opened fire in unison, and the firepower net, which was more than three times denser than before, instantly enveloped the devil flying team that was diving.

·····

"Kill them..."

With round eyes and howling, the devil commander who was controlling the Type 97 dive bomber to rush towards an air defense position instantly froze when he saw the sudden surge in firepower.

"Nani..."

With an exclamation, the devil commander's expression changed from angry to dumbfounded.

Then he saw that a Type 97 bomber beside him was blown up in the air, turned into a ball of fireball, and then planted straight into the ground.

"The Separate Regiment has anti-aircraft guns of a larger caliber."

"It's a trap!"

The scene in front of him made this experienced devil instantly understand the current situation.

The explosion just now was not the detonation of the bomb on the plane, but the explosive power of the anti-aircraft shell, and such a powerful explosion is definitely not something that 20 anti-aircraft artillery shells can do.

But at this time, the altitude of his plane is already very low, although it has not entered a large-angle dive, it can be completely changed, but after changing the dive, it will take a period of level flight acceleration, the altitude will be further reduced, and the speed will also decrease.

In the face of the dense anti-aircraft fire points on the ground that are at least 1340, flying at low altitude and low speed is completely looking for death.

Thinking of this, the devil commander gritted his teeth, pushed the joystick sharply, and chose to continue diving.

At the same time, he also shouted loudly on the shared channel:

"Keep attacking..."

The rest of the devils who launched the attack also made the same choice, one after another accelerated their dives, and bombed under the dense anti-aircraft fire of the independent regiment.

Fifteen planes, even if they are divided into three groups, in order to avoid collisions, a maximum of six planes attack in a dive, and the rest hovering at an altitude of 1,500 meters.

After receiving the order to continue the attack, the remaining 14 Type 97 dive bombers launched dive bombing from all directions.

"Fire at full speed."

On the ground, on all the anti-aircraft gun positions, the officers and cadres commanding also shouted loudly in unison.

Woohoo...

Boom Boom...

Bang bang bang ·

With the thumping of anti-aircraft guns, the gasping of engines, the screech of falling bombs.

On the ground in the square circle of Zhao Jiayu, dozens of explosions and smoke clouds were raised, several houses that had just been built were blown up, an improvised bridge was blown up, and even a high-altitude 20-gun position was also shrouded in gunsmoke.

At the same time, two clouds of gunpowder smoke rose in mid-air, these were two devil bombers that were blown up in the air, and two devil planes shook, with green smoke and flames coming out of the nose, and then rushed straight to the ground.

In this round of fighting, the devils lost five planes on the spot, and the independent regiment also suffered losses, a 20 anti-aircraft artillery position was hit, and the casualties are unknown for the time being.

"Return."

Looking at the anti-aircraft artillery position below that he hit, then at the wings that he had penetrated, and finally at the new 40-caliber anti-aircraft guns, the devil commander gritted his teeth and gave the order to retreat.

After dropping the heavy bombs, the planes became much more maneuverable, and the remaining ten Type 97 bombers circled around and retreated in the direction of Taiyuan.

"40 anti-aircraft guns, keep fighting for me."

One of his own air defense positions was hit, and Fumino's eyes were red-eyed and he ordered the 40 guns to continue firing at the devil's plane before the altitude reached 3,500 meters.

The 40 anti-aircraft guns equipped with gyroscope calibrators have excellent aiming, plus the teams operating the 40 guns are elite, and they have a lot of air defense experience before, even if they are the first time to use the 40 guns in actual combat, and before the devil plane left the range, they shot down a Type 97 dive bomber again.

At this time, the losses of the hit anti-aircraft artillery position also came out:

"Report to the company commander, the second position lost a 20 anti-aircraft gun, three people were wounded, no one was killed, two of them were lightly wounded, one was seriously wounded."

The perfect anti-aircraft artillery position built by the independent regiment had defensive sandbags and anti-artillery holes, plus the devil pilots were affected by artillery fire, and the bombs did not directly hit the center of the air defense position, so the casualties were not large.

Hearing the report, Fumino also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he looked at the wreckage of the devil's plane that fell near Zhao Jiayu, and a smile appeared on his face.

This time, after nearly half an hour or so of air defense battles, he shot down six devil planes, that is, 900 tons of weapons and ammunition were in hand, and there were more than 10,000 tons of food.

Considering that most of the people in the air defense company were fighting for the first time, and there were a lot of deficiencies in the coordination between the various positions, it was also the first time that he commanded an air defense operation of this scale, and there were many mistakes, and this time the devils did not recklessly launch an attack, and this result was already very good.

Fifteen aircraft attacked, and six of them were shot down, forty percent of which were shot down.

······

At the same time.

Pan County.

As the last 120 mortar shell left the chamber, the camp of the Panxian Devil Brigade in the distance was already full of gunsmoke, and the original several devil dormitory buildings had become wreckage, and the soldiers observing from the front could even see that there were many devil corpses in the wreckage.

"Withdraw."

Not bothering to look at his own results, Wang Chengzhu quickly retreated with his troops.

The members of the artillery squad moved quickly, and in just a few tens of seconds, they disassembled the two 120 heavy guns, and then loaded them on the back of the big mule, held the reins, and left along the mountain road, retreating towards Zhao Jiayu.

Only one piece of corrugated paper and thin wood shells remained, and two deep gun emplacements.

Wait until Wang Chengzhu evacuated with people for more than half an hour, the devils of Panxian County arrived here with difficulty, among the several devils in the lead, there is a person with a side face full of blood, and his ears are wrapped in gauze, obviously, Wang Chengzhu's second artillery company also has the old tradition of an independent regiment, as long as it is facing the devils, then leave a little gift anytime and anywhere.

At this time, the captain of the devil brigade in Pan County informed the superior wing captain of the news that he had been attacked and that the soldiers and materials had suffered heavy losses, and the wing captain scolded him on the phone, and then reported to Yoshimoto.

····

About the same time.

Niangziguan Railway Station.

Ten kilometers to the east, Iwamori also finished firing the last shell.

At this time, the Niangziguan Railway Station was already a sea of gunsmoke and fire, the main building of the station was full of holes, and even a wall was directly collapsed, many railroad tracks were blown off, the maintenance workshop was blown up, and a spare locomotive parked was also damaged.

Even the garrison Imperial Army suffered many casualties, and more than 30 Imperial troops were killed.

"Retreat."

Iwamori gave the order to retreat.

Then, the six gun crews moved quickly and smoothly, and in just one and a half minutes, they completed the disassembly of the Bosford Mountain gun and fixed the parts on the back of the mule.

When the devils from the Niangziguan railway station arrived, they could only see six artillery positions and some shell packages that had been left behind.

Subsequently, the telegraph operator also called by the captain of the garrison at Niangziguan Railway Station, trembling all over, reported the loss of the station directly to the Taiyuan Headquarters.

·····

During the hasty escape back to Taiyuan, at the moment of approaching Taiyuan, the devil commander carefully and frightened the plane while reporting the situation to Taiyuan.

By this time, the engine of his aircraft had begun to emit puffs of smoke, and it was getting thicker and thicker.
