The Japanese planes were flying whiningly, and Guo Qiliang felt uncomfortable watching them. Just when he was about to let the small artillery company use the Soloton machine cannon to sweep down the planes of these little Japs, Zhang Tianhai stopped this move - —
"Wait a minute, Brother Guo. We cannot expose our position. If we use the Solotong machine gun, our army's deployment near Wanjialing will be exposed." Zhang Tianhai said very calmly.
Zhang Tianhai also knew that his troops were indeed very strong in terms of overall strength, but precisely because of this, his strategic intentions were easily exposed.
It should be noted that under normal circumstances, for what purpose would the enemy hide such an elite force in the mountains? Here comes the answer, there must be a trump card that has not yet been used.
No matter how arrogant Matsuura Junrokuro is, he will definitely consider the survival of the entire army. If he enters the enemy's encirclement and the enemy has a large number of elite divisions, it will be very dangerous.
Therefore, Guo Qiliang thought about it and felt that Zhang Tianhai was right to do this. After all, in the current national army, there are not many troops with Solotong machine guns...
"Okay, you are right." Guo Qiliang nodded.
"The Japanese reconnaissance plane has appeared nearby, proving that we are not far from the frontline battlefield. And the Japanese forward troops must be very close to us. Deputy Commander Guo, your first echelon must win the first battle. . No matter what, we must win the first battle!" Zhang Tianhai took the lead in setting the tone.
In Zhang Tianhai's view, many things must rely on the joy of a "good start". At least if you win the first battle, you will have the right to have a say and your morale will improve.
"Yes, don't worry. Although my command experience is not as rich as yours, it is definitely not bad. Just wait and see! There is absolutely no problem." Guo Qiliang said with confidence.
"Okay." Zhang Tianhai nodded.
As they were talking, the Japanese aircraft were getting closer and closer. Zhang Tianhai and others had even seen the dog skin plaster marks on their wings. They thought that if the Soloton cannon could be used at this point, one or two of them would definitely be left behind. airplane.
I saw that the three planes were getting closer and closer, making a huge noise when the plane engines were running, which sounded very scary.
"Adjutant Xu, please immediately send me an order to have Captain Liu Houming of the special agent company immediately lead the special agent company to infiltrate in the direction of Wanjialing and Leimingguliu. Do not engage in head-on firefights with the Japs until it is absolutely necessary." Zhang Tianhai carefully warned his adjutant Xu Xundao.
"Yes, regimental seat!" Xu Xun responded, and then hurried to convey Zhang Tianhai's order.
…
After hearing the sound of the Japanese aircraft, the officers and soldiers of the First Police Regiment all used the same methods used in daily training to avoid air attacks - although the quality of the officers of the First Police Regiment is not as good as when it was first established. Although the level is so high, it is generally good. At least at the company and platoon levels, there are still quite a few educated and combat-experienced people serving as commanders.
It is precisely because the entire police regiment attaches great importance to air defense training that they have reduced a lot of casualties when facing enemy air attacks and bombings.
The 1st Police Regiment has worked hard on air defense training, but the little Japanese pilots are not vegetarians. Although the officers and soldiers of the 1st Police Regiment have made adequate preparations for air defense preparations, these flights lasted for a long time and were carried out. In front of veteran pilots who have survived countless combat missions, it is obvious that they still seem a little immature.
"咻咻咻~~咻咻咻~~咻咻咻......"
A row of large-caliber aircraft cannon bullets pierced the air and then hit the ground hard. Some unlucky soldiers had already been hit by the bullets.
"Puff puff……"
A few unlucky soldiers were hit and let out a scream. The officers and soldiers below fired at the sky with light machine guns and rifles.
Since the police group had a good ratio of machine guns, the Japanese planes in the sky were rushing to escape. After all, they only had three planes, and countless machine guns were aimed at them.
Soon, an enemy plane burst into flames from its tail, crashed into the mountains, and exploded.
For a while, cheers continued.
But listening to the cheers, Zhang Tianhai felt a dizzy impulse - the lurking position had been exposed, what if it affected the direction of the entire Wanjialing battle? Can he shoulder this historical responsibility?
Thinking about it, a wave of worry flashed through Zhang Tianhai's heart. It was an indescribable fear.
"Old Zhang, I see you don't look good. Don't worry! There must be a way to the mountain before the car!" Guo Qiliang naturally knew why Zhang Tianhai had such a dizzy impulse, but now that the matter has come to this, the only thing Guo Qiliang can do is Comforted.
"There is no other way, this is the only way." Zhang Tianhai gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
Indeed, Zhang Tianhai hated it, he hated it quite a lot - if he had given the order earlier to let the people below see the enemy planes not to carry out counter-air strikes easily, maybe this would not be the case.
But things have come to this, what else can be done?
Thinking about it, Zhang Tianhai let out a long sigh. Sometimes, if you miscalculate one step, you really miscalculate every step...
…
While Zhang Tianhai was troubled, the fear of the two Japanese pilots had not yet been lifted...
Konishi Sakai is an ace pilot from the Japanese Army Air Force. He is called an ace because he has successfully completed relevant combat missions many times, but this time it is different. This time the mission is really close to death. Escaped - this was the most dangerous time he had faced since entering the Chinese battlefield last summer, and he also faced the most ferocious anti-aircraft firepower.
"Damn it! The Chinese Army has ambushed at least one division of troops near here! I must report this situation to the Aviation Command!" Sakai Guoxi said bitterly. He had never encountered such a situation. He must revenge!
Not only Sakai Koshinishi thought so, but even another surviving pilot Yukinosuke Momono also believed that at least one division of combat troops was ambushed here, and it should be the Central Army troops of the Chinese army!
Because only the division-level troops of the Central Army can possess such intensive machine gun firepower. If it were other troops, that would not necessarily be the case.
The two surviving Japanese pilots analyzed this and the aviation headquarters naturally had no way to verify it. They could only report it to Commander Okamura Neiji based on the information they obtained.
…
On the outskirts of Jiujiang County, there is a combat airfield for the Japanese frontline troops.
This airport is located to the east of Jiujiang County, and is the real rear of the Japanese Jiujiang troops. The airport is densely packed with thirty-two combat aircraft, all of which are invariably covered with dog-skin plaster symbols symbolizing the Japanese troops—— It's actually just a red circle.
"Sakai-kun, Momono-kun! Do you analyze the same situation?" asked Colonel Nakatoshi Yamamoto, who is the supreme commander of this airport.
"Yes, sir! It is precisely for this reason that Saito-kun cannot return safely! Please believe it!" Sakai Koshiro assured with great certainty, and Momono Konosuke next to him also nodded.
