I am helping

Chapter 708 Not only didn't make a profit, but also suffered a blood loss!
Even with Okamura Ningji's scheming determination, he couldn't help being horrified at this moment.

Dagu Town suspected that the information from the Eighth Route Army New Regiment Headquarters came from the pangolin, a senior agent.

At the beginning, the First Army found the airfield of the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment around Zhaojiayu.

Immediately, Yoshio Iwamatsu, the commander of the First Army, sent planes to blow up the airport of the Eighth Route Army's Xinyi Regiment, as well as the nearby villages, which shows that the regiment headquarters of the Xinyi Regiment is near the airport.

Dagu Town is only about 10 kilometers away from Zhaojiayu.

As soon as the information about the pangolin came in, combined with the previously synthesized information, the headquarters of the North China Front Army determined with high probability that the regiment headquarters of the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army was in Dagu Town.

Intelligence is like this, true or false, when a commander receives information, the first thing to judge is whether the information is true or false.

If the information is true, the goal can be achieved if the action is taken. If the information is false, it is very likely that it will be missed or even caught in the enemy's trap.

Of course, there is a third situation, which is the current situation.

The information is true, and the enemy knows that the information has been leaked, so they deliberately set up a trap, waiting for you to drill in.

In order to kill Li Yunlong, Okamura Ningci did not hesitate to use all the fighters, bombers and reconnaissance planes of the 16th and 20th Flying Regiments.

On the way to Northwest Shanxi by plane, Neiji Okamura had reviewed it many times in his mind, and felt that there was nothing wrong with this bombing mission.

The Eighth Route Army will never know the information in advance.

But in the current situation, Okamura Ningji knew that he had fallen into Li Yunlong's trap again.

What went wrong?

Could it be that the pangolin was captured by the Eighth Route Army and then betrayed the empire?

The pangolin belongs to Kenji Doi, and Neiji Okamura has only read brief information on the pangolin. He is not clear about what the pangolin looks like, what kind of education it has received, and what kind of experience it has.

idiot!

Various thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, Neiji Okamura, who couldn't think of a clue, could only curse bitterly in his heart.

"idiot!"

"What are you doing standing still?"

"Don't hurry up and inform Colonel Amakasu Saburo to lead the flight regiment to leave the enemy's air defense firepower network..."

Seeing the combat staff officer holding the handset and microphone, he seemed to be stupefied by the scene in front of him, Yusue Jingsan flew into a rage.

"Hi!"

The combat staff hurriedly picked up the receiver and microphone of the radio and called out: "Call for Colonel Amakasu Saburo, call for Colonel Amakasu Saburo..."

"Protect Your Excellency General to leave here immediately."

Mitsuo Watanabe, head of the 16th Flying Regiment, cast a gloomy look in the direction of Dagu Town.

In just a few seconds, Sanxiong Watanabe saw that several planes of the 16th Flying Regiment were blown up by the anti-aircraft fire on the ground.

Ordinary heavy machine guns don't have that effect. At most, they can punch a bullet hole in the plane. If it doesn't hit the mailbox or explode the aerial bomb, it will never blow up the plane in the air.

At least 20mm machine guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns.

The Eighth Route Army has so many 20mm machine guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns.

This firepower is simply terrifying...

Even Mitsuo Watanabe, who has rich experience in flying combat, couldn't help but gasp.

He really wanted to lead fighter jets to the rescue, but he had more important things to do, protecting Ningji Okamura.

What's more, the enemy has deployed at least more than 1000 firepower points on the ground, and their five fighter jets went to the rescue, just to deliver food to the Eighth Route Army.

Even if all the aerial bombs and machine gun shells carried by the five fighter jets were exhausted, it would not have any effect at all.

The enemy's anti-aircraft fire was too much, and the 16th and 20th Flying Regiments fell into a trap.

And if the plane that Admiral Okamura Neiji was on was shot down here, then the pilots who protected Okamura Neiji would probably all have to be seppuku.

Following Mitsuo Watanabe's order, the other four fighter jets protected Ningji Okamura's transport plane, while Mitsuo Watanabe's plane hung firmly behind the transport plane.

In the perspective of Mitsuo Watanabe.

Right in front of him is Neji Okamura's transport plane. As long as he presses the launch button of the 12.7mm machine gun, Neji Okamura's plane will be blown up in the air.

……

"Captain, there are also devil's planes over there."

Huang Erhu of the guard battalion said to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong turned his head and asked, "Where?"

Huang Erhu pointed in one direction. Li Yunlong looked and saw a few small black spots in the sky six or seven kilometers away. He hurriedly raised his binoculars to look again, and 6 planes appeared in his field of vision.

Because almost all of Li Yunlong's attention is in the direction of Dagu Town.

So I didn't notice that there were a few ghost planes watching secretly in the distance.

Li Yunlong adjusted the focus and saw clearly that it was 1 transport plane and 5 fighter jets.

On the side, Zhang Dabiao, Wang Dehou, Zhao Gang and others also held up their binoculars and looked in the direction of the six Devil planes.

"I'll be good." The corner of Zhang Dabiao's mouth curled up slightly, "Five fighter jets protect one transport plane. Could it be some devil official in that transport plane?"

Among the weapons and equipment provided by Boss Chen, there are many binoculars.

Produced by the system, it must be a high-quality product. The commanders of the Xinyi Regiment and above are each equipped with a high-precision 7x Zeiss telescope.

In addition to binoculars, each member of the regiment headquarters is equipped with a pair of high-magnification artillery mirrors that can measure distances.

Xing Zhiguo's expression moved, and he tentatively said, "The one in that transport plane, shouldn't it be that old devil Neji Okamura?"

Li Yunlong said with sharp eyes.

"The one who can protect five Devil transport planes must be a devil official."

"At least a major general or lieutenant general."

"Chief of Staff, immediately order the battalion of 88mm anti-aircraft guns to shoot down the devil planes over there to Lao Tzu at all costs."

This distance is beyond the range of the Oerlikon 20mm machine gun and the M2 heavy machine gun.

Even the 37mm anti-aircraft guns are out of reach, and only the 88mm anti-aircraft guns can barely reach it.

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou immediately grabbed the handset of the walkie-talkie and ordered:

"This is the regiment headquarters, call the 88mm anti-aircraft artillery battalion..."

"This is the regiment headquarters, call the 88mm anti-aircraft artillery battalion..."

"Your department immediately opened fire on the 6 planes in the northwest sky, taking down that transport plane at all costs!"

The 88mm anti-aircraft gun battalion and the 37mm anti-aircraft gun battalion were deployed on the mountains around Dagu Town, and they were firing at the Devil planes above Dagu Town.

at this time.

The 88mm anti-aircraft gun battalion commander received the order from the regiment headquarters and immediately ordered the soldiers of the anti-aircraft gun battalion under his command to turn the direction of the muzzle, and the observer immediately reported the distance and orientation of the enemy plane.

Not long after, there were continuous and rapid muffled sounds on the position of the 88mm anti-aircraft artillery battalion.

As the 88mm anti-aircraft gun fired in the direction of the Devil's plane, explosions continued to be generated around the Devil's plane, and the smoke filled the air.

A Devil fighter on the left side of the transport plane was hit by shrapnel and caught fire, and the plane lost control and fell rapidly towards the ground.

After a while, 4 fighter jets covered the transport plane and got into the thick clouds, and the 88mm anti-aircraft guns fired in the direction of the clouds.

The Jag fighter jet that was hit fell headlong to the ground, hitting a ball of orange-red sparks on the hill, and the bomb under the belly of the plane exploded.

……

at the same time.

In the sky northwest of Dagu Town, in the Japanese transport plane, Neiji Okamura's face was full of shock.

As the rank of general of the Japanese army, Ningji Okamura, who was appointed to the headquarters of the North China Front Army, was so frightened that his heart was raised in his throat just now.

Yusue Seizo was almost scared to pee.

If the fighter on the left hadn't blocked the shrapnel for the transport plane just now, the shrapnel would probably have to fly into the cockpit of the transport plane.

At that time, Amaterasu will not be able to save him.

Yusue Seizo couldn't help being a little dissatisfied with Okamura Neiji, you said that the commander of the North China Front Army, a general of the Imperial Army, why did he come to watch the battle when he had nothing to do?
Looking for a thrill?
Wouldn't it be good to leave this kind of matter to Chief of Staff Moritake Tanabe?
Neiji Okamura also had some regrets at this time. He wanted to see with his own eyes that Dagu Town, where the headquarters of the Xinyi Regiment was located, was wiped off the map under the bombing of the two aviation regiments of the Locust Army.

Get ready for a wave of thrills and a feast for the eyes.

Seeing that the north of Dagu Town was bombed by aerial bombs, Gang Village really enjoyed the pleasure and feasted his eyes.

More than 1000 anti-aircraft firepower points of the Eighth Route Army opened fire at the same time. It was rare to see such a Star Wars-like scene even if Okamura Ningji was in a high position.

It's just that the pleasure and eye blessing are very short-lived, followed by endless pain.

"Your Excellency, General." Deputy Chief of Staff Yusue Jingsan calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "The Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment has large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, which are already capable of defending against high-altitude fighters. The caliber of their anti-aircraft guns must be at least 75mm."

After a pause, Yousue Jingsan said again: "In the past, there was no information showing that the Eighth Route Army's Xinyi Regiment possessed anti-aircraft guns with a caliber above 75mm."

Neji Okamura's face was gloomy when he heard the words. The Eighth Route Army actually possessed anti-aircraft guns above 75 mm. This is not good news for the aviation of the North China Front Army.

In the past two years, every once in a while, the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army will emerge with some powerful new weapons.

20mm machine guns, large-caliber heavy machine guns, 75mm mountain guns, anti-tank guns, 105mm howitzers, 150mm howitzers, and every time a new weapon appeared in the New First Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese Army Staff Headquarters recorded it.

This time, anti-aircraft guns with a caliber of more than 75mm appeared. They were so far away that they were almost hit by anti-aircraft guns.

Even Okamura Ningji and Yusue Seizo almost confessed to being in Dagu Town.

Seeing Neiji Okamura's face turned ugly, Yusue Seizo said again: "Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment does not have many anti-aircraft guns above 75mm, and their anti-aircraft artillery lacks combat experience."

If it is an anti-aircraft artillery with rich combat experience, when the 6 planes are circling over Dagu Town, they should shoot at them.

Instead of waiting until they are about to slip away and shooting, and the accuracy is not very good.

"Youmo-kun." Okamura Ningji said angrily: "Order the 16th and 20th Flying Regiments to return to Peiping Airport immediately!"

"Your Excellency, the order has been issued." Arisue Seizo replied, but he was thinking in his heart that this time the 16th and 20th Flying Regiment might suffer heavy losses.

Not only did he not make a profit in this battle, but he also lost blood, and it was the kind of loss to grandma's family.
