"Ding... the main character has been detected: Zhang Milong. In the original time and space, he was wanted by Officer Chen for shooting an air defense officer who escaped from the battle. Long Wenwen asked for help everywhere but to no avail, and finally shot him with his own hands.
Now the fate of the host has been successfully changed due to the host's reasons. Completion level: excellent.
The points reward is 5,000 points, which is 62,239 points.
Unlock the American M1 40mm anti-aircraft gun. This gun is imitated and improved based on the Swedish Bofors 40 anti-aircraft gun. It has the characteristics of simple and compact structure, reliable mechanical action, low failure rate, and quick transition between marching state and combat state.
The total weight of the gun is 2.6 tons. In combat mode, six people need to unfold the base to operate it. The maximum range is 4,700 meters. The upper and lower shooting range is from minus 11 degrees to plus 90 degrees, and the direction range is 360 degrees.
It can shoot straight and level. It uses a 20-round magazine for ammunition. The actual rate of fire is 60 rounds per minute. It can be installed on a half-track armored vehicle. The exchange price is 350. The report is completed. "
After solving the mystery of the dragon, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in Liao Mingyu's mind.
Bofors 40 anti-aircraft gun, this is a good anti-aircraft weapon, which can just add to the weak air defense force of the army.
To be honest, this Japanese air raid also caused a great shock to Liao Mingyu. Now the Third Division is developing well in all aspects, but it lacks effective air defense weapons. The entire division only has one anti-aircraft gun battalion, Li Jie.
It is said to be an anti-aircraft artillery battalion, but it uses anti-aircraft machine guns modified from M2 heavy machine guns. There are no large-caliber anti-aircraft guns at all.
If the Third Division was attacked by a large-scale Japanese air attack, they would be unable to fight back. It would be difficult to form an air defense fire network with 12.7-caliber machine guns alone.
This incident also made Liao Mingyu realize that before he has his own air force, the air defense force must be good. The consequences of losing air supremacy need not be said, let alone relying on the Americans alone.
"Exchange me for 16 Bofors anti-aircraft guns."
Liao Mingyu decided to set up the air defense battalion first. With these 16 40mm anti-aircraft guns, coupled with a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns, it was completely enough to deal with the Japanese aerial strikes.
The key is that the anti-aircraft gun can also shoot horizontally. How can the thin-skinned Type 97 hit the Japs with perfect accuracy? This is much faster than the 37-gun anti-tank gun, and it can also be mounted on an armored vehicle. Will the Japanese cry to death after seeing this?
"Ding... the redemption was successful, the total cost was 5,600 points, and the remaining points were 56,639."
Come on, with this anti-aircraft gun, Li Jie would probably wake up laughing even if he fell asleep. Liao Mingyu smiled and got in the car to go back home. He still had to wait for the good news that Zhang Liu brought back to him.
…
The Japanese bombing caused great losses to the expeditionary force.
The 6th Army and the 8th Army, which bore the brunt of the bombing, were killed and injured more than 6,000 people. More than 50 trucks and countless military supplies were destroyed, which directly caused the two armies to lose their ability to continue fighting, and also seriously affected The original battle plan arrived.
Wei Lihuang was extremely angry and sternly reprimanded Song Xilian, Huang Jie and the acting commander of the 8th Army Li Mi. They all made such a big mistake at this juncture. Several commanders had unshirkable responsibility. responsibility.
But it is useless to blame them after things have already happened. The Japanese were calculated mentally and unintentionally, and coupled with the looseness and carelessness of the two troops, it is understandable that such a result would occur.
However, the all-out general offensive originally scheduled to be launched on August 28 was greatly affected, because the mission of the 8th Army was to cooperate with the 71st Army to capture Gaoligong Mountain, while the 6th Army was supposed to bypass Gaoligong Mountain and follow the Yunnan-Burma Highway to the west. advance and launch an attack on Tengchong from south to north from the direction of Longling.
However, the withdrawal of these two troops made the offensive very passive. First of all, only Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army was left in the attack on Gaoligong Mountain. Secondly, there was a lack of a containment force in the south of Tengchong. The original plan of siege on three sides had serious loopholes. .
The defenders of Tengchong will even threaten the northern part of Longling. It is very likely that when Liao Mingyu and the others face the attack of the 18th Division, they will attack from both sides and break the complete annihilation blockade of the expeditionary force.
Wei Lihuang was so angry that he set up his headquarters in Chanda, regardless of the generals' dissuasion, and personally dispatched the frontline troops. In order to ensure the safety of the commander-in-chief, Liao Mingyu and the others were busy like crazy.
The Yankees were also aware of the seriousness of this incident. Strictly speaking, they were partly responsible for the Japanese air raid. Who made this group of people swear that the Japanese had no control over the sky in western Yunnan, but this time they were severely punished? A slap in the face.
For this reason, Chennault also asked the 14th Aviation Group of the US Army to retaliate and retaliate in kind, and also launched an air raid on Tengchong.
It's just that the cunning little Japan could not have expected this. Under the tight defense, the Americans not only failed to take advantage, but also lost a lot of air power.
The Americans, once again disgraced, stopped working and started causing trouble for little Japan every day like they were crazy.
During this period, fighter planes from both sides fought wantonly in the sky, causing losses to each other. Every day, one or two downed planes dragged black smoke to the ground.
Wei Lihuang didn't object to this at all. He let these Americans do what they wanted, since they could cause some losses to the little devils anyway, so why not?
However, there is a piece of news in the past two days that makes people a little confused, that is, Director Chen of the 11th Group Military Political Training Department suddenly disappeared.
According to the report, on the 21st, the day the Japanese bombed Zenda, Director Chen hurried over for unknown reasons, but he did not show up at Zenda. Instead, there was no news from him, not even the relevant personnel who accompanied him. Disappeared without a trace.
The Bureau of Investigation immediately began to investigate the matter thoroughly, but within a few days of the investigation, the investigators in charge of the matter received a message from the peak calling for a halt. The reason was not explained, which makes people imagine...
Director Chen's cronies and others refused to give up. People from the Investigation Bureau went to Song Xilian if they didn't care. Song Xilian went to Wei Lihuang if they didn't care.
And the Commander-in-Chief of Wei has one head and two big heads at this time. Damn it, how can he find the time to help them find people when he doesn't even have time to fight? After blowing them away with a few words, he didn't care about it anymore.
On the other hand, Wei Lihuang also had to readjust the battle plan. The 20th Group Army attacking Tengchong from the north remained unchanged, while the task of attacking Gaoligong Mountain was left to the 2nd Army, which would not arrive in western Yunnan until the end of the month.
However, Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army was assigned to the northern part of Longling. Their mission was not to attack, but to block the northern part of Longling to prevent Tengchong from attacking Longling from both sides from the south. Secondly, they must also provide support for the Honorable Third Division at any time.
The real main force attacking Tengchong is the 20th Army, and almost all of their 11th Army have become auxiliary. However, the attack plan on the 28th can only be postponed to September 5th, not only to wait for the arrival of the 2nd Army, but also to receive new supplies. Deployment also takes time.
Liao Mingyu was somewhat unsure about such a change. Gaoligong Mountain was even more steep than Nantianmen. Although the 2nd Army was a direct line unit with bald heads, its combat effectiveness was acceptable, but if it wanted to win the battle in a short time, Descending Gaoligong Mountain is no easy task either.
As for Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army... Although his army nominally has four major units: the 36th Division, the 87th Division, the 88th Division and the Yu Division, the only ones Yu Xiaoqing can really control are the Yu Division and the 87th and 88th divisions. The 36th Division, the most powerful division with insufficient numbers of troops, has been held in Song Xilian's hands.
