Chapter 120: Blowing Up Your Own People?
Whether it was before, at present, or in the future, it is not uncommon for warplanes to accidentally bomb their own infantry.
But most of the pilots at high altitude dropped bombs in the wrong place because they could not distinguish between friend and foe as far as their eyes could see or because of the wrong intelligence, and as now, a group of Japanese infantry dressed in bright yellow clothes were waiting for their air force to take out the Chinese, but they never thought that their air force accidentally slipped and dropped the bomb on their heads, which is still unheard of.
Not to mention that Suzuki Mitsu is stupid, even Liu Lang, who secretly climbed through the woods to the No. 1 highland mountain forest to watch the battle situation on his side, can only express his surprise with a jaw-dropping.
800 meters in front of the No. 2 high ground is the simple field position built by the Japanese army, which is a good habit of the Japanese army. Probably the main reason is that they dig up a little easier than the Chinese army, and each soldier carries a single sapper shovel, not to mention, the legs are shorter, isn't it?
Normally, most of the Japanese troops are hiding in improvised trenches, but at this time, the fighters are in a big way and want to dive and drop bombs, so they can't stand outside the trenches and cheer for their army aviation!
More than two squadrons of infantry stood on the open ground, and then watched as the big guy smashed over the top of the hill and over the treetops towards the bottom of the mountain.
The one who reacted quickly fell to the ground as soon as possible, and the one who was too agile turned around and jumped into the trench not far away, while the one with the longest nerve reflex arc stayed in place with his hippopotamus mouth open.
A 500-pound aerial bomb landed more than 300 meters away from the Japanese army and exploded!
Such a terrible big guy, of course, everything within a diameter of 100 meters is powdered, and the Japanese army was not miserable enough to be within this killing range, but the killing range of the shock wave expanded this range several times.
The surging shock wave swept the Japanese infantry far away like the wind blowing leaves, and it was much better to lie on the ground than to stand and stupidly turn around and run, but if the posture of lying on the stomach was not correct, it was also fatal.
The ground shock caused by the explosion of the bomb was enough to shatter the internal organs of a soldier who landed on the chest and abdomen, and under the medical conditions of this era, it was basically the end of it.
Not to mention the Japanese troops who were only three or four hundred meters away from the explosion point, even the death squad trenches on the mountain were all dropping slag, which also shows the horror of this heavy aerial bomb.
However, the luck of the Japanese army was already good, if the bomb fell another 200 meters, I am afraid that it would not have been overturned by the air wave and the internal organs were damaged, and the two infantry squadrons here could definitely not be more than half of them.
According to the later declassified Japanese war report, the "accidental bombing" led to the loss of more than 30 Japanese infantry in non-combat, and 20 of them died one by one within three days after the incident.
Second Lieutenant Kurokawa slipped his hand and misoperated due to nervousness, and another Japanese plane was estimated to have been affected, and the bomb was also dropped early in a hurry, and the bomb exploded about 400 meters away from Zhao Ergou's fire team. The dense forest in the mountains weakened the qi wave by more than half, and Zhao Ergou and they also had fortifications, except for the pain caused by the wind and sand hitting their faces, they basically did not suffer any damage.
The last two heavy bombs were dropped on their heads and one in the mountains, and there were two 30-kilogram bombs hanging on an airplane, and under the pressure of four machine guns that were constantly firing, the bombs were dropped at an altitude of 800 meters.
At this time, the Japanese planes had been hovering in this mountainous area for more than 20 minutes, and in Liu Lang's words, if they continued to fight, they would not need to be accurate at all, and the fuel consumption alone would make it impossible for the four Japanese planes to return to the airport.
The "advantage" of no planes in China's northern theater of operations finally came to the fore at this moment, and no planes meant no airfield, and the Japanese army occupied Rehe and did not have an airfield for planes to take off and land, and the closest to here was probably Shenyang, 500 kilometers away.
The Japanese pilots were not as forced as Liu Lang hoped, and after dropping the bomb, they circled the battlefield helplessly, and then turned around and flew north.
In vain, Mitsumi Suzuki jumped on the ground and scolded Lu Hang and a bunch of fools, but he didn't help much, he was shot down twice, not to mention throwing a bomb on his own head.
The last credible hole card in Suzuki's hand became a big joke on the battlefield, and the officers and soldiers of the death squad who got up from the trenches looked at the super crater that was blown up by the Japanese bombs at the bottom of the mountain, and then the Japanese infantry carried their comrades who were killed and injured by their own people and retreated, and they all laughed.
On a whim, the old monkey jumped on the trench and urinated on the Japanese soldiers from a distance. Seeing that their deputy captains were so wild, a group of young soldiers followed suit and jumped out one after another to open the floodgates and release water.
"See, the little devil is just these two times, the infantry is not good, just rely on artillery, and the artillery will not work, then rely on the air force!" The old monkey did not forget to teach his soldiers while releasing water. "As a result, they can't be relied on flying now, I'll see what else they can do."
"Squad Leader Hou, why can you pee for so long? How long has this been held? "There was a younger one who put on his trouser belt and saw that the old monkey was still trickling, and I couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Damn, Lao Tzu's kidneys are good!" The old monkey laughed and scolded, and then his body shook and shivered, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, "But, laugh and laugh, but the power of the little devil's heavy bomb is really not covered, not to mention falling on the position, that is, falling outside the position, half of our hundreds of people have to be shocked to death, and the two that fell on the No. 1 high ground almost scared Lao Tzu to pee, and it is strange not to hold back this ruthlessness." ”
Although he was honest about his fear, no one laughed at him, and the distance from No. 1 Heights was more than 1,000 meters, and they could all feel the power of the waves, and such a big guy could fall on the top of his head at any time, and it was pure nonsense to say that he was not afraid.
"Yes! The captain is still on the side of the No. 1 high ground, and I don't know what happened to him and the brothers of the 2nd Division. One of the soldiers also said, not without concern.
"Then you can relax, our captain's skill and heart, the Japanese want to kill him, I'm afraid it's just a few hits from them." The old monkey waved his hand and blinked mysteriously: "Knowing that I have been a soldier for so many years, I don't want to say that I have good arms and legs, why not?" ”
"Why? Isn't it better to hide? Running fast? Will you play dead? "A soldier listed the three life-saving elements that circulated in the veteran's oil.
There was laughter in the trenches, it seemed that at least two of them were quite in line with this one, and when the Japanese machine came just now, he hid quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the person disappeared. Not to mention the plane in the sky, even his own people almost didn't find him.
"Ball! If you only have these three points, you will be killed by your own commander if your baby does not live for half a year. The old monkey retorted with a glare. Elect a chief, you know! You have to choose the kind of commander who can lead you to win the battle, only if you win the battle, you can survive, Captain Liu, this kind of commander. Otherwise, do you think Lao Tzu will run into the death squad? ”
"It's scary to look at the name of the death squad, in fact, it's even more scary on the main position of Xifengkou, don't hundreds of brothers die that day? If you want to talk about decisive death, the entire 29th Army can be regarded as decisive death. The old monkey continued to talk. Captain Liu's move to sneak attack the devil artillery brigade with us is actually called life to death, it is a dead end, as long as you can fight hard, you will have a way to live. ”
"And now?"
"Now!" The old monkey looked at the sun in the sky that was trying to climb, licked his chapped lips, and smiled wryly. "Now this situation is based on my 20 years of experience as a soldier, it is a complete dead end, there is no way out, but it is very strange, in the past, even if I was not afraid of shaking, I was constantly smoking to relieve it, but now, Lao Tzu can still accompany you guys to pull calves."
There was laughter in the trenches again, and they didn't take any of the dead ends seriously.
The old fritter may be able to speak his mind, but he doesn't know why, and neither do the smiling soldiers.
Actually, that's what victory brings.
The continuous victories brought confidence to the Chinese soldiers, and their confidence in Liu Lang was also their confidence in themselves. Now they are a strong army, an army with self-confidence, enough to make any opponent fearful.
On the other hand, their opponents, after suffering consecutive defeats, have fallen to the extreme. The so-called imperial pride is like a hard shell, as long as you dare to break it, the hearts of the Japanese people are actually extremely fragile.
Behind the blind arrogance, there is often a hidden extreme inferiority, and the characteristics of human nature cover any nation in the world.
Just like they are now, for more than an hour, without any attack.
