Chapter 173 The front is tough!

The place where the Devil bombers dropped their aerial bombs just now was indeed the position of the new regiment's mountain artillery battalion.

However, after the artillery was fired, the artillery and cannons had long been moved to hiding places.

In order not to be taken away by the Devil's plane, each mountain cannon was hidden in a different position, fully concealed.

The Eighth Route Army lying on the ground is a dummy made of straw and Eighth Route Army uniforms. The mountain cannon camouflage net is an extra gift from Chen Feng to Xinyituan, and there are more than 100 pieces.

These dummies and camouflage nets reflect their value, consuming 10 100-kilogram aerial bombs from the little devil.

Kato Ryuichi, who learned that he was deceived by the false target, was a little out of breath.

Their mission this time is different from the last time they chased the Xinyi Regiment in the Xinzhou Basin. The last time it was to harass and restrain the Eight Routes, this time Yoshio Shinozuka gave them the order to kill the Eight Routes at all costs.

Kato Ryuichi led the flight formation and swooped down towards the main peak of Lion Mountain at any cost. Two Nakajima fighter jets were also coming to the west.

In the Lion Mountain position, the commanders and fighters of the new regiment had long heard the humming roar of aircraft motors.

However, after shooting down two devil planes through Hulugou, and being chased by dozens of devils in the Xinzhou Basin, the new regiment successfully jumped out of the devil's encirclement.

The commanders and fighters of the new regiment were not so afraid of the Devil plane.

"Enemy plane!"

"hidden!"

"All battalions and companies gather firepower and prepare for air defense!"

"Give the cannon to labor and management!"

Through the field of vision of the telescope, Li Yunlong roared loudly when he saw six planes approaching at high speed in the distance.

Following his order, the soldiers of the new regiment immediately moved into action, taking cover in squads, crawling to avoid, setting up light and heavy machine guns, and aiming at the direction of the Devil's plane's dive.

Regarding the air defense after the arrival of the Devil planes, they have long been familiar with it. Not only do they have actual combat experience, they have practiced hundreds of times in the past few months, with an average of one air defense drill per day.

Don't panic at all.

At the same time, the firepower of each battalion and company quickly set up light and heavy machine guns all over Lion Mountain, and pulled the trigger in the direction of the Devil's plane.

At the top of the mountain, 40 camouflaged machine guns were ready to go, and they saw the little devil's plane dive down, aiming at the direction of the devil's plane's dive.

The cannons on the top of the mountain were fully camouflaged and very concealed. Even with binoculars on the plane, the devil pilots couldn't see the exact location at all.

Therefore, the first round of dive attack by the Devil's plane was aimed at a new group of positions on the slope of Lion Mountain.

Da da da…

Tom tom tom...

More than 100 light and heavy machine guns, more than 200 submachine guns, and 40 machine guns formed a firepower network on the devil's dive route.

The tracer ballistics fired by the weapon covered the entire sky of Lion Mountain like a spider web.

Under the dense rain of bullets, the Devil's plane continued to dive down without fear of death.

This is a contest where you die or I live.

Da da da…

From a long distance, blue lights appeared from both sides of the Devil's plane's wings. The machine guns and cannons fired violently, and the bullets and shells from the machine guns splashed half a meter of dirt and sand on the ground.

Six planes, more than [-] bullet marks extended towards the forward position of the new group.

A Type [-] bomber on the left emitted black smoke before it could drop a bomb.

First, the fuselage shook violently for a while, and then an open flame was lit, and the fuselage uncontrollably fell obliquely downward, brushing the top of the mountain and passing the Lion Rock.

It fell on the ground below the reverse slope of Lion Rock.

boom!
Ten 10-kilogram aerial bombs under the fuselage exploded, the ground shook violently, and the whole earth shook violently.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the other two Type [-] bombers quickly dropped their aerial bombs, and then pulled the joystick upwards.

Because of the rush of bombing, when the two bombers pulled up, only some of the bombs landed on the new group's frontal slope, and some of the bombs landed in front of the position.

Compared with fighter jets, bombers are a bit cumbersome, and it is difficult to change and avoid direction when entering the dive route, especially when pulling up.

But at this moment, several machine guns on the top of the mountain suddenly spewed out tongues of flame, and the chain of tracer shells lashed towards the Devil's Type [-] bomber like a whip.

The two Type [-] bombers shook violently for a while, and then exploded and disintegrated in the air with a bang. Parts with black smoke scattered in all directions, and then fell down one after another.

The devil pilot is also the top iron, and he is bombing the position of the new regiment with his life.

Knowing that the new regiment is equipped with machine-made anti-aircraft guns, it still chooses to dive bomb.

Although the high-altitude attack on the ground has the advantage, but in front of the firepower network composed of 40 machine-made anti-aircraft guns, more than 100 light and heavy machine guns, and more than 200 submachine guns.

The advantage is infinitely lowered.

The other three Nakajima fighters were lucky enough not to be hit in the firepower net.

Compared with heavy bombers, fighter jets are more flexible, faster, and easier to change direction.

"Bag! Bag! Bag!"

A series of angry curses from Takashi Kato rang out on the radio.

In the first round of dive bombing, three Type 3 attack aircraft were actually lost. Wearing a jacket-style hood and goggles in the cabin, Ryuichi Kato's cheeks twisted together due to anger.

"Boss, there are more than 20 cannons on the eighth route, and I'm afraid there are no less than 40. We still..." A pilot said on the radio.

Machine-made anti-aircraft guns, and machine-made anti-aircraft guns with a large number of tracer shells sandwiched between them, are simply the nemesis of attack aircraft.

And the 40 machine guns below are more powerful than the defensive firepower on a battleship. They guard the position below like a battleship.

"Yamaguchi-kun, shut up!"

"Come back with me to kill the machine guns on the hill!"

Kato Takashi's tone was cold, beyond doubt.

"Hi!" The Devil pilot had no choice but to obey.

The 3 Nakajima fighters turned somersaults, turned around and flew back, and went straight to the cannon position on the top of the mountain. The other 2 Nakajima fighters also joined the attack queue.

It is worth mentioning that the devil pilots of this period had extremely rich experience in flying and fighting.

They are all pilots who survived the battle with the National Army Air Force, and there are many ace pilots among them.

With the outbreak of the Pacific War in the middle and late stages, Japan's experienced pilots were lost in air battles with the US military.

In the later period, the devils even let the new pilots fly fighter jets to carry out suicide attack missions, such as the kamikaze squad.

This is the consequence of losing more battles. There are fewer and fewer experienced veterans, and there are some inexperienced recruits on the battlefield. Naturally, the balance of victory will not fall to Japan.

But right now, the fighting power of the devil pilots and elite soldiers is still very strong.

Five Nakajima fighter jets swooped down towards the Lion Mountain while doing tactical evasive actions from different directions, aiming at the cannons on the top of the mountain.

The two 12.7mm machine guns under the wings of each Nakajima fighter jet spit out long tongues of flame.

"The little devil of the dog day!"

Monk Wei stared wide-eyed. A dual-mounted cannon in front of him was already full of 120 rounds of 20mm shells.

In the command post, Li Yunlong squinted his eyes and watched the Devil plane that swooped down, his expression was calm and he was not affected at all.

Under his order, the 40 machine guns were replaced with new magazine drums, each drum contained 60 rounds of machine gun shells, and the shooters aimed at the diving Devil plane through the circle sight, with their fingers resting on the weight. On, hold your breath.

Seeing that the devil's plane was getting closer, Li Yunlong shouted loudly: "Fire!"

In an instant, the firepower composed of 40 machine guns and more than one hundred light and heavy machine guns aimed at the Devil plane, weaving a dense firepower network.

Both sides came to a wave of head-on toughness.

Life and death are bearish, if you don't agree, just do it.

While operating the fighter jet to avoid the ammunition belt, the Devil pilot pressed the firing button of the machine gun and swooped down to shoot down.

But it is a pity that in the face of the dense firepower air defense network, there are only 5 Devil fighter jets, and they have no advantage.

In this round of competition, 3 machine guns were hit by the machine guns and aerial bombs from the Devil's plane, and 2 fighter jets were shot down by the machine guns of the new regiment and fell to the ground.

The new group made a small profit.

The 3 Devil fighters that turned somersault turned back again, but the Devil pilots who had tasted a new group of anti-aircraft firepower did not dare to dive and shoot at low altitude.

After aiming at the bottom several hundred meters indiscriminately, there was nothing he could do. The ammunition he was carrying had bottomed out, and he flew back in the direction of Taiyuan in despair.

There were 9 planes when we came, and only 4 planes left when we went back.

Watching the devil's plane go away, Zhao Gang heaved a sigh of relief: "The plane of Gou Ri has finally left."

Although 5 Devil planes were killed in the ground-to-air battle just now, facing the Devils' dives, loud noises, machine gun fire, and powerful aerial bombs, there was an inexplicable sense of depressive psychological pressure.

However, Li Yunlong's eyes remained calm all the time, and his expression didn't change at all.

"Pass my order, the first battalion and the second battalion will meet the enemy immediately."

"Third Battalion and Sword Squadron pay attention to defending the rear to prevent the devils from sneaking around and attacking."

Through the vision of the binoculars, Li Yunlong saw the devils rushing towards the forward position with a large number of puppet troops, and gave orders with a stern expression.

The forward position of Xinyi Regiment was blown up into a sea of ​​flames by more than a dozen aerial bombs.

Almost every aerial bomb blasted a crater the size of a pond.

However, the soldiers scattered widely in the trenches, and the loss was not too great. At most dozens of people were killed in battle, which was within Li Yunlong's tolerance.

After all, this wave has just shot down 5 Devil planes head-on. Calculated based on the exchange of 3 American mountain guns for each plane shot down, it can be exchanged for 15 American mountain guns.

There are almost 4 mountain artillery companies, so happy.

Li Yunlong hoped that a few more Devil planes would come and be beaten down, so that the new regiment would soon be able to form a mountain artillery regiment.

Immediately afterwards, the attacking force composed of the puppet army and the Japanese ronin quickly exchanged fire with the first battalion and the second battalion.

As soon as the fire was exchanged, the commanders and fighters of the first battalion and the second battalion felt that the combat effectiveness of this puppet army was unbelievably low. Many soldiers couldn't even shoot accurately, and their firepower was too weak.

The Xinyi Regiment fought against such an army without any pressure at all.

The first wave of offensive by devils and puppet troops was easily defeated.
