Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 713 Bombing
Neji Okamura knew that planes taking off from Linfen Airport could not be "surprised". It will soon spread to the Eighth Route Army airport, and the result is only to let the imperial army waste a batch of bombs and scare the snake away.

Therefore, Okamura Ningji ordered the bomber to hang the bomb directly when it made a transition midway, and then flew directly to the Eighth Route Army airport through the airspace of the recalcitrant army...

Neiji Okamura made this decision after careful consideration.

First of all, even if the Eighth Route Army had established an early warning mechanism, it would never have imagined that the Imperial bombers would fly over it from the direction of the recalcitrant army.

Secondly, the aviation of the recalcitrant army has been beaten by the imperial army so that they dare not take to the air to fight, so the bombers only need a few fighters to escort them, which also achieves the purpose of saving fuel as much as possible... At this time, the devils are fighting everywhere, and the eagle sauce That again puts an embargo on it, and its fuel savings and calculations are outrageous.

Thirdly, and most importantly, Neiji Okamura knew that the recalcitrant army was not in harmony with the Eighth Route Army. Even if the recalcitrant army knew that there was a bomber flying over them and the target was the Eighth Route Army, the recalcitrant army would not notify the Eighth Route Army.

This made Okamura Ningji guess right.

The bombers of the Devils flew over Zhengzhou in a grand manner, and then flew straight along the Yellow River defense line into the Eighth Route Army's airport on the west bank of the Yellow River.

The 3th Army of the 12rd Group Army of the Recalcitrant Army was stationed in Zhengzhou. At first, the army commander thought that the Devil bombers were bombing Zhengzhou, so he hurriedly ordered air defense alert.

No wonder the army commander thought so. Zhengzhou at this time can be said to be the front line of the Anti-Japanese War...in October 41, it was captured by devils, and it was recovered more than 10 days later.

But the army commander hid in the air-raid shelter and waited for a long time without hearing the explosion of the bomb. He walked out of the air-raid shelter suspiciously and raised his binoculars to look in the direction where the bombers left, and found that their flight direction was a bit strange.

The army commander returned to the headquarters to draw on the map, and then understood that the target was probably the Eighth Route Army.

But the army commander was puzzled again, why did the devils uncharacteristically attack the Eighth Route Army so violently?

You must know that the Eighth Route Army has never had any targets worth bombing... Either thatched cottages or caves, the results of bombing the Eighth Route Army may not be worth the bombs dropped.

If there is anything worth bombing, it is Yuncheng.

But this direction is not Yuncheng, but directly to the west bank of the Yellow River...

The next second, the army commander thought of it. He heard that the Eighth Route Army had recently received a batch of planes, and they were planes that Yingjiang had reinforced.

The army commander immediately reported the situation he analyzed to his superiors.

But you don't have to think about it to know what the result will be...

The superior's answer was: "Don't speculate, just wait and see what happens!"

The army commander was very helpless. Although he also wanted to notify the Eighth Route Army, he had no contact information and was worried that he would be charged with the Communist Party. He could only slam the phone on the base, and then sat on the chair and sulked.

As a result, the devil's bomber passed through the area of ​​the recalcitrant army without any surprise or danger, and then appeared over the airfield of the Eighth Route Army without any warning...

Many soldiers and civilians along the way actually found these planes, but because the planes were flying at high altitude and they were coming from the direction of the stubborn army, they took it for granted that they were the planes of the stubborn army, and even regarded them as going to bomb the devils. Not only did not report, but also waved and cheered.

At that time, the Eighth Route Army Airport was indeed not ready.

The reason is that the tunnels used by the Eighth Route Army to hide the aircraft have not yet been fully prepared... As I said before, the tunnels are relatively humid, and some places are even seeping water.

Wang Xuexin thought of many ways, such as using lime and charcoal, but none of them were ideal.

The reason is that the water vapor seeps out continuously from the inside of the mountain, and it does not mean that it is enough to absorb the moisture in the air in the cave.

On the other hand, even if the plane is always hidden in the tunnel, it is not a solution.

This is what Major Doug put forward: "If our plane has been hidden in the cave, it will be safe, but it will be too passive!"

Wang Xuexin nodded in agreement.

He knew what "passive" meant.

To put it simply, the plane should take off to fight the enemy and block the enemy's fighter planes outside a safe line, instead of hiding in the tunnel all the time.

If it has been hiding in the tunnel waiting for it to become moldy and rusty, what is the difference between having an airplane and not having one?
From this point of view, the plane should not be placed in the tunnel for a long time.

Because putting it in the tunnel and dragging it out will inevitably waste some time. It is a race against time for the plane to scramble into the air. It takes a few minutes to drag it out of the narrow tunnel, and it is likely to lose the best fighter.

To sum up, the fighter planes have always been parked outside the tunnel entrance. It is more ventilated outside without worrying about getting wet. At the same time, it is close to the runway. When there is a situation, the plane can directly jump on the plane for emergency takeoff.

If there was any protection, it was a long tarp stretched over the roof of the plane.

The tarpaulin can protect the aircraft to a certain extent, and it can also prevent the Devil's reconnaissance plane from observing the target... The Devil's reconnaissance plane flies in the air and looks down, and can only see the tarpaulin that is integrated with the ground.

In this case, if the Devil bombers suddenly appeared over the airport and ignored the indiscriminate bombing of 21, at least half of the ten Hawker 81s would be lost.

Fortunately, Wang Xuexin thought of the possibility of a sneak attack by the devils and sounded the air defense alarm 2 minutes earlier.

It was these 2 minutes that played a decisive role...

As soon as the air defense alarm sounded, the soldiers immediately pushed the fighter planes into the tunnel to avoid bombs.

The fast ones had already entered the tunnel during the bombing, while the slow ones were still pushing in when the bombs fell.

Wang Xuexin didn't know what was going on. The few of them hurried to the entrance of the tunnel and looked down the airport. They saw aerial bombs exploding in the center of the airport with howling noises. The airport, which was originally calm, was bombed in an instant. It looked like a pot of porridge boiling, with fire and smoke radiating everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke.

There was even a missed bomb that exploded not far from the entrance of the tunnel... It seems that this cannot be said to be missed, because it almost hit the tunnel of the headquarters.

Although the tunnel is very strong, if the aerial bomb is directly above it, I am afraid that a large area will collapse.

Wang Xuexin, Major Doug and others hurriedly fell to the ground. Li Yueying was unprepared for a while, and was coughing non-stop due to the rising smoke... The pilot didn't have much experience in dodging bombs.

Wang Xuexin didn't care about these things. At this moment, he only thought in his heart: I hope those planes can escape this catastrophe!
