Chapter 576 Bombers Arrive at the Battlefield
Chapter 576 Bombers Arrive at the Battlefield
Beidingyuan.
The positions of the 1st and 5th Regiments.
A shell instantly landed on the position, and the exploded black soil flew up and fell heavily.
Wang Jiantang, lying on the battlefield, shook the dust off his shoulders and cursed: "These damn Japanese tanks are so damn numerous."
Coming out of Shu, Wang Jiantang could say that it was the first time he actually saw the overwhelming cluster that Lin Lu had mentioned.
Although the three waves of turning attacks destroyed many of the Japanese tanks, it would have been a great victory in any battle in the country.
But it seems insignificant here.
Because in their position, the Japanese not only sent tanks to deal with Sun Desheng's attack, but also sent troops to attack their positions.
It was as if the first three attacks were just tickling them.
Now the tank regiment and their current positions will be overwhelmed if they make even the slightest quick maneuver.
The enormous pressure made them dare not relax at all.
"Commander, the Fifth Battalion is less than two hundred meters away from the Japanese tanks..." Da Niu's voice came at this time.
When Wang Jiantang looked towards the right wing of the position, Zou Min and his men were suppressed by the heavy firepower from the tanks and could not even raise their heads.
One regiment was the first to go up, and was at the forefront of every battle, with the fastest speed. However, they were already overwhelmed by the cluster of Japanese tanks they faced.
After all, the difference between flesh and steel is too small.
"Hold on this wave and buy time for the heavy artillery!" Wang Jiantang knew that it was impossible to retreat at this time, and all the previous efforts in the battle would be useless.
Even if the entire regiment is wiped out, they must hold their respective positions in this wave. This is not only related to the success of this battle, but also to the outcome of their Northern Expedition.
Not long after Wang Jiantang finished speaking, Changsheng quickly walked over from the regiment headquarters with his body bent.
"Commander! The brigade commander has new orders. Let us retreat first! Keep a distance from the Japanese tanks and move quickly."
As Changsheng was speaking, shells fell from time to time, stirring up clouds of dust. The black soil had already dyed their uniforms a little dark.
"Retreat?" Wang Jiantang couldn't help but look puzzled.
This was completely different from the original battle plan. Facing this order, Wang Jiantang waved his hand.
"The entire regiment evacuates the position in an orderly manner!"
"Yes!" Changsheng took a quick step forward and left.
"Evacuate... What is the brigade commander going to do?" Wang Jiantang murmured, looking a little puzzled.
When he looked up at the battlefield, Sun Desheng's tank regiment was infiltrating with a very determined attitude, and it was obvious that they had received a change in orders.
"Captain Sun is strengthening his penetration..."
It can be said that all the defense lines, like... unable to withstand the attack of the Japanese tanks, began to shrink.
But others don't know. As the commander on the front line, Wang Jiantang knows very well that although they are facing huge pressure from the tank cluster, they can withstand it. More importantly, they have not yet activated their anti-tank weapons.
The sudden retreat made him look a little puzzled, but Wang Jiantang had never doubted Lin Tianchen's orders since he led the team to ambush the Japanese squad.
Just as Wang Jiantang was feeling somewhat confused, a series of roars came from the sky. The appearance of this sound immediately became the focus of the entire battlefield.
Whether they were soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Brigade or the Japanese soldiers, many of them looked up at the sky in between shots.
Eighteen bombers were lined up neatly in a rough triangular formation.
Although the brigade commander had told them to be wary of the Japanese bombing, Wang Jiantang still looked very solemn when the Japanese bomber appeared.
"Be careful to hide!!"
"hidden!"
"Disperse the formation!"
Shouts were heard one after another.
But where can we hide on this plain?
It was completely bombed by bombers.
But even so, the soldiers of the 1st and 5th Regiments on the entire battlefield still maneuvered quickly as instructed.
The formation spread out and tried to find cover as much as possible around.
In the sky, the roar in the distance was getting closer and closer, like a death cry.
It's like a dark cloud covering the sky and the sun.
Wang Jiantang stared at the plane intently. The gap in equipment was the reason why they were defeated.
It's just a battlefield, there's no such thing as fairness.
The ugly expressions on the faces of the soldiers of the Tiger Brigade formed a sharp contrast with the Japanese soldiers I was attacking.
Not only was there a roar coming from the sky, but the flying planes gave them confidence, because they knew that the undefeated Tiger Brigade would be defeated in front of them!
With this in mind, the Japanese attacked even more fiercely.
However, where everyone in Beidingyuan focused their attention, Ouyang Wenjing in the bomber was trying to slow down the plane and control it at the best bombing speed according to Xu Yun's theory.
"Finally found it!" Ouyang Wenjing's face was full of excitement. According to his understanding, the brigade commander would definitely open up a new battlefield, and the one between Spring City and Ice City was the biggest possibility.
If he didn't find it in the middle, he could only fly to Chuncheng and find a way to land these bombers.
Only after actually getting on the plane did they realize that it was too difficult for them to carry out accurate bombing without experience.
Because the speed is too fast.
"Captain, there seems to be artillery fire guidance below..."
"I saw."
“Could it be a coincidence?”
"Unlikely. It was the artillery guidance given to us by the brigade commander."
Ouyang Wenjing's tone was very firm, and he quickly started to operate, muttering to himself as he did so.
"Xu Yun mentioned dive bombing... The bomber quickly dives from high altitude to low altitude, drops the bomb when it approaches the target, and then pulls up. This method can improve bombing accuracy..."
Ouyang Wenjing murmured softly, recalling the bombing techniques that Song Junfei and Xu Yun had talked about, his eyes gradually became serious.
"Li Cheng, I told you to drop bombs, so open the bomb bay!" Ouyang Wenjing originally said that he wanted to watch the bombing, but now with the guidance of artillery fire, his goal became clearer.
Small objects like dots could be vaguely seen densely packed on the plain. Ouyang Wenjing knew that these were tanks. They were all on the battlefield, clearly divided. One side had an extremely large number of them, while the other side was like a small boat, resisting the impact of the sea.
Every shell shone brightly in the dark sky.
"Yes!" Li Cheng responded loudly, and immediately cooperated with several soldiers next to him, waiting for orders at any time to open the bomb bay.
"Little Japs! Let me show you what it's like to be bombed!"
Ouyang Wenjing was originally worried about accidental injuries, but now he is not worried at all. He just wants the Japanese to experience the doomsday feeling of being bombed.
The roar was getting closer and closer, rushing towards the original battlefield of Beiding...
Behind the Japanese tank group, a Japanese soldier in official uniform holding a saber in his hand observed the entire battlefield. The continuous sound of explosions made him feel full of murderous intent.
"Sir Qingye Sanshiwu, the third team has been completely destroyed. It is the Tiger Brigade that is blocking us!!" A messenger said loudly on the side.
"Teng Weihao was right to tell us to be cautious. The resilience of this Tiger Brigade is truly formidable!"
Qingye Sanshiwu murmured to himself, the Tiger Brigade's attack could be said to be linked together. First, they used their positions to attract firepower, and then a cluster of tanks appeared from the flank.
It is obvious that the impact brought by the Tiger Brigade's tanks after they formed a large cluster is now difficult for the Tiger Brigade's positions to withstand.
But even so, he did not dare to underestimate the Tiger Guards Brigade, because even now the Tiger Guards Brigade still gave him a strong sense of oppression.
However, he still saw the hope of victory in his heart. The advantage in the number of tanks and the advantage in the number of troops are two completely different concepts.
The advantage in military strength can be compensated through tactical operations.
The numerical advantage of tanks cannot be compensated by manpower alone.
What's more, this is in a plain area, so we can easily crush the enemy.
Even if the opponent ambushes us in advance, they will eventually react.
not to mention.....
Qingye Sanwu listened to the approaching roar and a smile appeared on his face. The Tiger Brigade, which was already struggling to hold on, how could they withstand their all-out attack with the advantage in the air?
If the problems that had not been solved were solved in his hands, he could foresee that he would take another step forward.
"It's too late to be afraid now..." Qingye Sanshiwu showed a hint of sneer on his face. Looking at the soldiers of the Tiger Brigade who were originally defending their positions in front of him and were trying their best to retreat, he knew that the opportunity to win the battle had come.
Qingye Sanshiwu raised his hand and swung his sword, pointing it at the position of the Tiger Brigade, his tone filled with coldness:
"All troops attack!"
After the order was given, the entire Japanese tank group began to maneuver quickly.
The roar made him extremely excited, because at this time, some bombers in the sky were approaching rapidly and had even begun dive-bombing.
Just after giving the order to attack, I heard the sound of bombs breaking through the air, which brought about bursts of whistling.
boom!
In an instant, a shell landed about a hundred meters to the right of where he was. Huge flames shot up into the sky, waves of heat hit him, and the huge impact directly blew him away.
"...Damn it, what are those people in the Air Force trying to do!"
Qingye Sanshiwu's face was charred, his military uniform was pitch black, his right arm was bleeding, and his eyes were fixed on the diving plane in the sky.
He struggled to support himself on the ground with his hands, a painful expression on his face, and the pain in his body kept stimulating his brain.
Every time I moved, I felt a pain that penetrated into my bones. My right arm was bleeding and the bone was visible.
Qingye Sanshiwu could never have imagined that they could be bombed by bombers in this airspace!
But he didn't care about all this. At this moment, Qingye Sanshiwu's bloodshot eyes were staring at the sky.
Because bombs were falling from the sky above their heads!
Huge explosions occurred behind the entire Japanese tank group. Shock waves collided with each other, and flames raged continuously, eroding the earth.
When the bombs landed on the tanks, the huge secondary explosions directly turned the fragile tanks of the Japanese into nothingness.
Only pieces of iron were scattered.
