Chapter 374 Strong Wind ()
Nine o'clock in the morning on the 14th.
A cluster of national bombers taking off from Guangde Air Force Base appeared in the sky over Shanghai Beach.
Because I did not expect that the Chinese Air Force would attack in such bad weather, and the Japanese fleet had just recovered from the fire attack on the Baziqiao area.
It was not until the government's bomber formation was about to fly over the battleship that it was discovered by the observation post on the ground.
At this time, the National Air Force was like an exhibition hall of aircraft from all over the world. From Hawker 2 and Hawker to Northrop EC bombers, all kinds of messy aircraft models could be seen. Models of nine aviation groups There are sixteen kinds in total.
If it weren't for the unified blue sky and white sun emblem on the wings, people would have thought that this air formation was a mixture of air forces from several different countries.
The order for the National Air Force to prepare for combat was issued to various combat units of the Chinese Air Force in the early morning of the 14th.
According to the orders of the headquarters, they were supposed to complete the assembly before dusk today and launch a unified attack.
However, with the exchange of fire between the two armies at the Bazi Bridge this morning, the war had already begun. Zhang Wenbai ordered the Guangde Air Force Base, which was currently relatively well prepared, to launch an attack in advance.
Brigadier Huang just realized something was wrong, and then he immediately asked:
"Is it possible that you shot down those two planes?"
As for naval gun strikes?
There's no way to warn that.
It turns out that he has such an ability, so it’s no wonder.
"It's our plane!"
Several people around him also nodded slightly.
Brigadier Huang was a little shocked.
Outside Chizhi University, the soldiers of the 264th Brigade looked at the fleet of aircraft flying overhead and couldn't help but cheer.
But speaking of it, even if I didn’t see much of the Japanese air force this time, why didn’t the Japanese naval guns even hit me?
"Huh? Where is your Camp Commander Ma?"
The Japanese fleet, which was originally arrogant due to two rounds of intensive firepower coverage, suddenly seemed to be fleeing in panic.
"Report to Brigadier Huang, our battalion commander is operating anti-aircraft artillery and it is inconvenient to leave, so let me report to you."
A false alarm.
He quickly remembered that Zhang Wenbai had accidentally mentioned that when he and Lu Feng first met, the other party wanted to buy a machine gun on the black market for ten times the premium.
Originally, the total number of aircraft in the national air force was only about 300, but due to the price increase more than a month ago, the number of combat aircraft in the national air force almost doubled before the war.
During the "December 28th Incident" a few years ago, Brigadier Huang Meixing personally experienced the power of the Japanese navy and air force, so he specially arranged air defense sentries since the war.
This time, we finally have our own air force.
"Yes, those two Japanese reconnaissance planes were shot down by our battalion commander. As for the anti-aircraft artillery, our battalion commander purchased it with his own money."
So said one white observer.
No matter what it is, when its quantity exceeds a certain scale, it can have a shocking effect.
Although they were at a distance, his observation post also noticed the explosion of the two Japanese aircraft. However, due to the limited field of vision, they did not know who shot down the aircraft.
On the roof of the International Hotel, military observers from various countries saw this scene and briefly forgot about the shortcomings of the mixed aircraft types in this flying formation, and fell into shock at such a spectacular scene.
unfortunately
Brigadier Huang looked northwest. Commander Chen on the other side of Jiangyin must be very heartbroken at this time, right?
Not a single shot was fired, but the ship was about to be sunk and the river closed.
But what I didn't expect was that it was my own plane coming.
Brigadier Huang didn't expect that he was from the "Feng" camp, or that Lu Feng had killed him.
Instead, they kept bombarding the Bazi Bridge?
Now that the "wind" battalion suddenly had someone else reporting to him, and thinking of the horrific bombardment not long ago, Brigadier Huang had some bad thoughts.
As far as Brigadier Huang knows, there should be only one regiment of Madman Qiu on the other side of the Bazi Bridge, plus the "Wind" camp, right?
What did Crazy Qiu do to incur such great anger from the Japanese? Could he still poke the Emperor of Japan in the buttocks?
"Report to Brigadier Huang, Zhou Weiguo of the "Wind" Battalion has been ordered to come and report."
"I think it may be time to re-evaluate the country's military strength."
At the same time, the anti-aircraft firepower on the warships also began to be fully activated. The warships that were originally stationed increased their horsepower and began to maneuver on the water to avoid the bombs falling overhead.
"Is that so?"
Brigadier Huang felt a little nervous. He was very optimistic about Lu Feng, a young man with broad knowledge and self-awareness.
At this moment, a voice interrupted Brigadier Huang's thoughts.
He looked back and saw Zhou Weiguo, who was covered in mud, and not far away, the large army of the "Wind" battalion, which was also covered in stains.
Looking at the Chinese Air Force planes that had flown to Yangshu Puna, Brigadier Huang felt extremely excited.
This time, the number of aircraft taking off from Guangde Air Base was as high as 40.
"Oh, that's good. No? Anti-aircraft artillery? Where did you get the anti-aircraft artillery?"
Zhou Weiguo nodded and said proudly:
In the temporary headquarters, Huang Meixing, commander of the 264th Brigade, also came out of the bunker and watched the Chinese Air Force planes fly overhead.
When the air defense sentry warned that an aircraft had appeared, Brigadier Huang immediately moved his staff to the bunker to prepare for air attacks.
When such a huge fleet appeared in the sky, countless people on the ground raised their heads and watched carefully.
When the fleet of aircraft flew over the heads of the warships parked on the Huangpu River, bombs fell from the sky towards the Japanese warships.
"Okay, okay! Nice fight! I'll notify the headquarters now to ask for credit for you!"
"It's better to wait until we finish this battle. Brigadier Huang, please assign us tasks."
Brigadier Huang looked at Zhou Weiguo with a determined look in front of him, smiled and nodded:
"Okay, look, we have now surrounded this group of Japanese troops inside Chizhi University, but because the enemy's fortifications are too complete, we can't find a suitable breakthrough.
Your task is to create a breakthrough for me. The location is up to you. "
"Yes."
Zhou Weiguo saluted, and then went to the observation port to carefully observe the current battle situation around Chizhi University.
After a while, he had a plan in his mind. "Brigadier Huang, I am going to place the breakthrough point in the southeast."
"reason."
"Currently, the Baziqiao area has been occupied by our army. The Japanese army in Chizhi University has become a lone army. If they want to retreat, the most suitable route is to move closer to the Navy Club to the west."
"Are you going to drive them out?"
"Yes."
"Okay! Your kid and I want to go together."
Brigadier Huang happily patted Zhou Weiguo on the shoulder.
"Then what happens next is up to you."
"Yes, my subordinates are going to prepare now."
"Go ahead, just tell me if you need anything."
"Yes, thank you Brigadier Huang."
After bidding farewell to Brigadier Huang, Zhou Weiguo came to Lu Feng's truck and briefly reported the conversation he had just had with Brigadier Huang.
"It's not convenient for me to show up now. Since I said that I would leave the command to you, you will be solely responsible for how to fight."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
Zhou Weiguo didn't say anything more and went directly to the remaining 500 people in the "Wind" camp.
In the horrific bombardment just now, although the large troops of the "Wind" battalion set off early and were located on the edge of the bombing zone, they were not bombarded.
But there was also a small group of troops that were completely destroyed by the bombardment.
Not even a body was left behind.
Lu Feng didn't even have time to count the specific personnel list because he had to continue fighting.
Compared with the "Wind" camp, which only lost about 200 people, Commander Qiu seemed even more miserable. The entire regiment had only gathered less than 500 people when Lu Feng and the others left.
It’s the kind where everyone gets hurt.
The war was so cruel. Lu Feng and the others had just achieved some results with some skills, when they turned around and encountered a fierce counterattack by the Japanese army.
Even more, such a counterattack was the result of the Japanese army's misjudgment and hitting an empty space.
Lu Feng realized more deeply what a "flesh and blood mill" was.
"Target code number 41, the team with the highest training score will be ranked."
Following Zhou Weiguo's order, three teams of thirty or forty people stood up.
After Zhou Weiguo looked back and forth between the three teams, he said to the team with the largest number of people, led by Xu Hu:
"Xu Hu, this time it's up to you."
"Sir Zhou, don't worry, I'll take care of you!"
Xu Hu smiled and patted his chest.
"The remaining two teams can substitute at any time. The remaining personnel will rest on the spot."
"Yes."
After arranging the combatants, Zhou Weiguo ran to Lu Feng's side again.
"what happened again?"
Lu Feng looked at Zhou Weiguo in confusion. He felt that there seemed to be some ill-intentioned look on his face.
"Battal Commander, I'm wondering if I should coordinate with my brothers in the Air Force."
"What collaboration?"
Zhou Weiguo raised his finger to the sky and said:
"Battal Commander, we can ask the headquarters to set up our area as an air defense zone. If our air force brothers have any emergencies, they can come here to seek shelter."
Lu Feng nodded without thinking:
"No problem, this is a good idea. I will go find a suitable air defense point now."
"No, I've already thought about it for you."
Zhou Weiguo stopped Lu Feng.
"Have you thought about it? Where is it?"
"Over there at the Patriotic Girls' School."
"Patriotic girls' school? Isn't it still occupied by the Japanese?"
Lu Feng just asked, and then he reacted.
"You want to go fishing?"
"Ah."
Zhou Weiguo nodded.
Lu Feng asked doubtfully:
"Can the Japanese take the bait?"
Zhou Weiguo said seriously:
"Battal Commander, you have to believe me. I know the Japanese better than anyone else. These guys are very special."
Lu Feng thought for a while, nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll go to the Patriotic Girls' School and try throwing a shot."
"I'm going to find Brigadier Huang now."
With that said, Zhou Weiguo ran toward Brigadier Huang's headquarters in a hurry.
