Liang Jian: Peaceful battle, I will bring a group to help the scene

The sudden anti-aircraft artillery fire directly blasted the formation of fifteen Devil transport planes into the air.

Because the Devils transport aircraft fleet is opening the rear hatch of the aircraft, preparing to drop supplies.

At this time, the flight commander of the Devils fleet gave an order to increase the altitude to avoid the sudden anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground, and it was impossible to complete it for a while.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

I saw countless 40mm anti-aircraft gun shells exploded in the Devils transport fleet, and the explosion fragments directly blasted the Devils transport planes at close range into twists.

Especially the Devil transport planes that were still in the air and were about to be air-dropped, all of them had no time to react, and were covered and bombarded by the sudden anti-aircraft artillery fire on the ground.

With a sound of explosion, the airdrop fleet composed of fifteen Devil 40-type land transport planes, which were bombed by the [-]mm anti-aircraft gun fire on the ground, began to explode in the air, then smashed down towards the ground, and then exploded on the ground.

At this time, the flight commander of the Devils fleet saw that it was too late to direct the formation of planes to pull up and escape, so he could only drive the lead plane to the altitude and run away first.

However, more than a dozen shells from 40mm anti-aircraft guns exploded around his plane, and the fragments of the shells after the explosion directly smashed the devil's lead plane into twists and turns.

In particular, some shell fragments blew up all the aircraft engines of the Devil's leader plane.

The Devil's lead plane, which had lost all its engines, plummeted to the ground with black smoke, and then fell directly to the ground with the other Devil's transport planes and exploded, turning into a pile of plane wreckage.

At this time, the commanders of both the enemy and our side could clearly see the spectacular scene of this scene.

On the ground, on the hillside in front of Xu Rui's temporary field headquarters.

Together with Chief of Staff Luo Youdu, Xu Rui watched as 800 meters above the main peak of Matouling, fifteen Devil transport planes were blown up and fell down, and then exploded.

Several of the Devil transport planes exploded in the air on the spot and turned into piles of wreckage.

"Wang Dazhu did a good job!"

Xu Rui laughed and clapped his hands, then smiled at Chief of Staff Luo Youdu.

"Tuan Zuo, there are three devil transport planes, and they are about to blow up."

Luo Youdu laughed loudly, then pointed to the remaining enemy planes in the sky above the main peak of Matou Ridge, and said.

"Um!!!"

Xu Rui nodded and continued to watch.

Sure enough, less than half a minute later, the last three Devil 40 land transport planes were hit by anti-aircraft shells fired by their own [-]mm anti-aircraft guns on the ground, and then fell to the ground with black smoke and exploded.

Among them, four or five Devils transport planes fell on the main peak of Matou Ridge, directly affecting some Devils defensive positions, and even killed some Devils soldiers on the ground. Xu Rui and Luo Youdu laughed when they saw it.

At this time, Seishiro Itazono looked out into the sky from the observation port of his bunker headquarters and saw the scene where the transport planes of our own airdrop team were hit by the anti-aircraft gun fire of the 40mm anti-aircraft gun on the ground and fell.

"Baga Yalu, what's going on?"

Itabazon Seishiro watched the transport planes being knocked down dumbfounded, and shouted in disbelief.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, General."

At this time, Major Kazuo Tachibana, who rushed in from outside the bunker command department, rushed to Seishiro Itazono, and reported tragically: "My airdrop fleet was ambushed by enemy ground anti-aircraft artillery fire. All fifteen transport planes were hit and fell to the ground and were blown up."

"All the materials on the transport plane are destroyed. All destroyed!"

At the end, Major Kazuo Tachibana had a miserable expression.

Fifteen transport planes dropped supplies, and the supplies on them, especially ammunition, were enough for more than 5000 imperial troops to fight for a day.

Now, all the fifteen transport planes were hit by the enemy's ground anti-aircraft artillery fire, and all of them fell to the ground and were all blown up.

Then, the ammunition in the hands of the imperial soldiers on the main peak of Matou Ridge became very tense.

Thinking of this, how could Major Kazuo Tachibana not have a miserable expression.

If you run out of ammunition, the rifles, light and heavy machine guns in your hand are just a pile of scrap metal.

Obviously, Itazon Seishiro also realized it.

So, Itabazon Seishiro gritted his teeth, and asked Major Tachibana Kazuo: "How long can we fight with the ammunition in our hands?".

"Your Excellency, you may still be able to call until five or six o'clock tomorrow morning."

Kazuo Tachibana said bitterly: "Besides, this is based on the extent to which the enemy has not continuously attacked the main peak of Matou Ridge.".

"If the enemy doesn't simply attack tonight, the ammunition in our hands can only last until three o'clock in the morning tomorrow, which is already the limit."

"And the most important thing is that we only have eleven 75mm mountain guns left, and only 227 shells left. Although there are more than [-] other mortars and projectile launchers in total, there are not many shells left, Your Excellency the General."

Hearing this, Itazon Seishiro's expression was serious.

In this way, Itazon Seishiro realized that there might be no follow-up ammunition supply, and they might not even be able to see the sun tomorrow morning.

It is impossible for Xu Rui and other enemy commanders not to know the ammunition plight of the imperial army at this time.

Otherwise, how could they carry out anti-aircraft shelling so quickly and accurately?

It shows that the enemy army already knows that he is short of ammunition and needs the information that the imperial transport plane will carry out airdrops.

Furthermore, an air defense ambush was carried out in advance.

Thinking of this, Itazon Seishiro immediately judged that Xu Rui and other enemy troops would definitely besiege the main peak of Matouling overnight, without giving him a chance to breathe.

Realizing that this possibility is very high, Itazon Seishiro's expression suddenly became more solemn.

"For the ammunition issue, we must request another airdrop from the headquarters. And the second airdrop must be carried out at an altitude of 5000 meters."

Itabazon Seishiro gritted his teeth and said.

"Your Majesty."

Kazuo Tachibana heard the words, thought for a while, and reminded: "The enemy's ground anti-aircraft artillery fire just now was fired by 40mm anti-aircraft guns.".

"The humble job is familiar with the range of 40mm anti-aircraft guns. According to the anti-aircraft guns used by the enemy, it can probably hit more than 7000 meters."

After a pause, Kazuo Tachibana said bitterly: "So, even if a second batch of imperial transport planes come to drop ammunition and other supplies to us, it will be very difficult.".

"The enemy's anti-aircraft artillery fire can hit the airdrop fleet."

Itabazon Seishiro heard this and immediately realized it.

After all, he also knew the approximate anti-aircraft range of the 40mm anti-aircraft gun.

If the airdrop is done at an altitude of more than 7000 meters, it is impossible to accurately drop it on the main peak of Matouling.

After all, the wind speed at high altitudes is not at all at low altitudes, and the wind speed at high altitudes is the same.

However, the Imperial transport plane does not have the strength to accurately drop air at an altitude of more than 7000 meters.

Thinking of this, Itazon Seishiro suddenly felt bitter, this is troublesome.

At this time, Major Kazuo Tachibana told another piece of bad news, but facing Seishiro Itazono's gloomy face, he hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Itazon Seishiro waved his hands and said with a wry smile: "Tachibana-san, if you have anything to say, just say it!".

"Your Excellency, the water we carry with the army is almost exhausted."

Kazuo Tachibana bit the bullet and reported: "Our water source is in trouble now.". (end of this chapter)
