Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1161 The Air Defense Battalion Attacks Again (First Update!)

Zhong Chenggong frowned and asked back: "Commander, you mean that the little devil's plane will come over!"

"It's very possible~ It's still an hour and a half before dark, and it won't take an hour and a half for the devils to fly back. If a plane comes over now, it can fly over our heads for at least 10 minutes!" Wang Ping affirmed.

Then raise the binoculars and look at the battlefield!

All the grain trucks parked on the road have been towed away from the road, and all the ammunition boxes scattered on the road have been emptied.

At a glance, there is nothing on the road that stretches for several kilometers except for scattered devil corpses.

There are three battlegrounds, two of which are coming to an end.The troops commanded by the devils had to abandon their positions due to heavy casualties, and fought hand-to-hand with the attacking troops~
"Rumble..."

After watching for less than 5 minutes, a looming roar came over.

The face of Zhong Chenggong next to him suddenly changed: "You are right, leader, the little devil really has a plane to kill him~"

"It's so easy to use aviation to bomb us, and the opportunity to kill us in large numbers is in front of us, and the head of the devil division will definitely not let it go!" Wang Ping analyzed.

"If I were the head of the Little Devils Division, I would definitely deploy more planes to bomb us within my full power, covering the entire battlefield. Immediately let the troops disperse and hide. The three planes should not be underestimated, at least with Eighteen aerial bombs come over, and a blind cat can kill a mouse and cause us a lot of casualties!"

"The air defense battalion is ready to fight. Don't let us down this time. You must find a way to kill me a plane!"

"Rumble..."

Amidst the huge roar, the three planes finally rushed to the battlefield.

They must have known the news that the Eighth Route Army on the ground had released weapons, and they were not in a hurry to dive and drop bombs, but circled back and forth in the air, searching for targets.

Wang Ping is not in a hurry, he knows that the three planes above his head will stay here for 10 minutes at most.So, the longer they hover, the less time they have to attack when the time comes.

Two minutes later, the two planes moved, left the formation, formed a small attack formation one after the other, and then rushed to a high ground on the battlefield with a roar.

If Wang Ping remembered correctly, an anti-aircraft machine gun platoon was stationed on this high ground!

Immediately raised the binoculars and stared at the two Devil planes that swooped down.

1000 meters high, there is no movement on the high ground~

500 meters high, there is no movement on the high ground~

At this time, Wang Ping couldn't help becoming nervous. Seeing that the Devils planes rushing to the front had already opened fire, the thick tongue of flame hit the ground for two days, and quickly extended to the top of the mountain. When it was about to cover the machine gun platoon, the air defense battalion finally started to fight back... …

The three anti-aircraft machine guns are spaced 40 meters apart from each other. They are not concentrated on the top of the mountain, but scattered on the slopes around the top of the mountain.

The three firepowers that suddenly appeared intersected with each other and directly enveloped the Devil's plane.

At this moment, there was movement on the three nearby hills. A total of nine anti-aircraft machine guns fired together. The dense bullets, like rain, all flew towards the front plane.

Because holding up the binoculars, Wang Ping could clearly see the picture of bullets punching countless bullet holes in the fuselage of the plane.

The little devil who piloted the fighter plane was obviously a veteran. Under his control, the plane dodged left and right in the air like a falcon.

At first, it dodged most of the bullets.

The two tongues of fire fired by the plane also successfully extended to the top of the mountain, smashing an anti-aircraft machine gun position into a mess, seven or eight soldiers fell to the ground, or were missing arms and legs, or were beaten to a bloody mess. It was very bloody and tragic. !

At the same time, thick black smoke rose from the tail of the Devil's plane, and then began to climb, trying to get out of the effective range of the anti-aircraft machine gun.

At the same time, another plane also opened fire, and swooped over one of the hills, trying to disperse the ground anti-aircraft firepower and relieve the team leader's pressure.

The little devil's plane that had been circling in the sky also moved, and it swooped down from the sky like a bomb, rushing towards another hill.

To the disappointment of the devils, the air defense battalion was not fooled!

The last time air defense failed, a very important reason was that the air defense firepower was too scattered, and the air defense forces were too concentrated.Not only did they not achieve any great results, but they were also taken over by the devils and killed two air defense platoons!
This time they directly learned the lesson, further scattered the remaining twelve anti-aircraft machine guns on various hills, and issued a death order to each squad. No matter what happened, everyone only stared at the first plane to shoot , Even if he has been targeted by the plane and is about to die, he cannot change the target of the attack.

Battalion Commander He Pengyu's death order worked.

Under the frenzied strafing of more than a dozen anti-aircraft machine guns, the devil's plane, which was just emitting black smoke, suddenly burst into a huge ball of fire, and then the whole plane was dismembered in two and smashed to the ground.

After the first plane was shot down, the remaining anti-aircraft firepower on the ground quickly split into two and fired at their respective targets.

The two planes that respectively destroyed a machine gun position seemed to be frightened by the explosion just now, and climbed immediately, avoiding the deadly attack from the ground!

The fighter plane piloted by the squad leader was shot into the air and exploded on the spot. The two planes that lost their command directly chose to avoid the ground anti-aircraft firepower, and in just 5 minutes, they used high-altitude bombing to throw all the bombs they carried at the suspicious targets they found. Then retreated.

"Regimental Commander, the Air Defense Battalion shot down a Japanese plane, lost two anti-aircraft machine guns, and suffered 28 casualties!" The chief of staff rushed into the headquarters and reported excitedly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Rong Jun also rushed in.

Compared with the smile on Zhong Chenggong's face, Rong Jun's expression was much more serious.

Frowning, he reported: "Regimental Commander, the casualties of the troops have been counted!"

"In the bombing just now, the devil's planes bombed the hiding places of our four companies. Fortunately, the troops were very scattered, and the bombs dropped by the little devil were not used in one pot..."

"However, the losses of the troops are still huge!"

"Almost half of the four companies suffered casualties..."

"I want the final result. How many people did the participating troops lose in the entire ambush battle? First, let's talk about the three battalions in your hand!" Wang Ping asked while staring at Rongjun.

The Rongjun hesitated and replied: "There were 2658 people in the three battalions before the war, but now there are only 1586 troops that can continue to fight, with more than 1000 casualties, of which 862 were directly killed in battle, and at least half of the casualties were caused by the bombing of Devil planes! "

"The casualties are too great..." Wang Ping also turned serious, and shook his head to answer.

"Aviation, the biggest threat to us is the aviation, you little devils... We must find a way to solve this threat, otherwise we will have too many scruples in future battles!"

"What about the guard battalion, are the casualties of the two companies serious?" Wang Ping immediately turned his attention to Hong Ruijun!

"The casualties in the guard battalion are not that great~" Hong Ruijun shook his head and replied.

"Both companies are reinforced companies. Before the war, there were more than 480 people. Now there are 428 soldiers who can fight. 46 people were sacrificed, and 26 people were injured and lost their combat effectiveness. Most of the casualties were caused by the bombing of devil planes!"
