Chapter 892: The Price of Arrogance (Second Update!) )
"Battalion commander, the heavy artillery battalion is here!" The observation post reported.
At the end of the road, the first heavy artillery slowly entered Chen Quan's field of vision.
The gunners, ammunition men, and horses all surrounded the heavy artillery, pushing or pulling, dragging the heavy cannon forward slowly.
The first heavy artillery walked more than thirty meters before the second appeared.
The same approach and the speed of the march, little by little into the already prepared pocket formations of the air defense battalion.
"Order the troops to be ready for battle, and after the heavy artillery battalion is in place, the little devil's plane should be coming soon." Chen Quan ordered nervously and excitedly.
This is the first battle after the establishment of the air defense battalion, and whether it can break zero and whether it can give the air defense battalion a good start depends on the next two hours.
In less than half an hour, all 12 heavy guns of the artillery battalion entered the pocket formation of the air defense battalion, and then stopped and began to rest, which was all agreed in advance, and the purpose was to lure the devil plane here.
Perhaps in order not to be chaotic during the air defense evacuation and to avoid the heavy artillery being wiped out by the devil planes, the team of the heavy artillery battalion was stretched more than 500 meters long.
"Bang ......"
A faint gunshot rang out to Chen Quan's ears.
Then I heard the increasingly nervous reports from the observation post.
"Battalion commander, it's a signal flare, and the devil plane is coming from the observation post."
"Weng Hum ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, a very faint roar came. As the minutes passed, the roar grew louder.
The artillery battalions on the highway were the first to get busy.
The gunner and the ammunition man worked together to push the gun to the side of the road with all their might, and then covered it with a concealment net.
There were also gunners who rushed directly to the bushes, cut grass and cut trees, and covered the thatch, branches, and other guns on top of the guns, making the heavy artillery look more hidden.
The horses were unwound from the guns by the gunners and pulled to other places to disperse and hide.
Prevent the horses from being frightened during the bombing, and expose the concealed artillery.
"Airplanes, lots of planes......"
The observation post kept its eyes unblinking, kept holding the telescope and looked at the sky, and the plane began to report when there were still a few small black dots.
"There are six planes in total, and there's a minute to go over us."
A solemnity flashed on Chen Quan's face: "There are more planes sent by the devil than I expected. ”
"This ambush battle is likely to be a bloody battle, so everyone must be mentally prepared."
"Command the troops: fight according to the original plan. After the battle begins, the troops participating in the battle must carry out the orders and prohibitions, absolutely obey the orders of their company platoon commanders, and no one can fall in love with the battle. ”
The plane came faster than expected.
On the road at the foot of the mountain, the tense atmosphere brought by the actual air defense drill to the heavy artillery battalion was indeed stronger than the usual training.
When the plane came overhead, there were still a lot of artillery pieces that had not been camouflaged.
In normal training, this is simply not possible.
The fighters next to the artillery became more and more nervous because the plane had already overhead, and some even forgot about their usual training and began to scramble.
The devil pilot obviously saw this scene, and did not conduct a cruise reconnaissance of the surrounding environment, and lowered the nose of the plane and dived towards the road.
The huge plane seemed to be in free fall, slamming into the ground with a roar.
Whether it is seen with the eyes or heard by the ears, it brings a great shock to the fighters on the ground.
Especially for those who are facing the plane for the first time, the already nervous mood directly turns into panic at this time.
"The little devils are too cunning, they want to make the artillery battalion more chaotic and panicked by bombing, so that the remaining heavy artillery on the road will not be able to hide." Chen Quan had studied the combat style of the Devil Air Force and could see their purpose at a glance.
Then he snorted coldly and said to himself: "But they are too arrogant, they don't take us seriously at all, and they don't even do the least reconnaissance, which shows that the Eighth Route Army is bullying us and has not released empty weapons!" ”
"But today he is going to miscalculate, and he will have to pay the price of blood for his arrogance."
"Weng Hum ......"
As he spoke, the roar of the plane could already be described as deafening.
The plane, which was inserted diagonally into the ground, was at most 500 meters above the ground.
Not surprisingly, within the next two seconds, the plane dropped the bomb and then quickly climbed to complete the textbook bombing.
"Da Da Da ......"
The familiar and unfamiliar sound of machine gun fire suddenly reached Chen Quan's ears.
On another hill less than five hundred meters from themselves, three anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine guns, three heavy machine guns, simultaneously fired at the air.
The planes were less than 500 meters above the ground, and the hill on which they fired was more than 100 meters high, which meant that their air defense was only 300 meters high.
Together with the parallel width from the aircraft, the firing range is exactly five hundred meters, and not only anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine guns, but also ordinary heavy machine guns can easily reach them.
Six tongues of fire intertwined with each other and crashed head-on into the plane that was stuck diagonally in the sky.
This scene was something that the devil pilot did not expect.
The survival instinct caused him to subconsciously pull the joystick to dodge the oncoming bullets.
Only in this way, his bombing mission could only be temporarily terminated!
With his own skillful operation, the fighter successfully avoided the baptism of bullet rain.
Except for a few more large holes in the fuselage that were punched out by anti-aircraft machine guns, there were no fatal injuries.
The pilot couldn't help but let out a long breath, and a smile appeared on his face for the rest of his life.
Then he was ready to manipulate the fighter planes and kill the air defense positions that had just been exposed, preparing to kill these Eighth Route Army, who had been shocked by his cold sweat.
"Da Da Da ......"
Before the thoughts in my head could be put into action, another string of fiery tongues appeared.
Whizzing bullets flew straight from the ground to the belly of the aircraft, where the fighters' defenses were weakest.
The pilot quickly increased the power of the fighter to the maximum, raised the nose of the aircraft to climb and get out of the effective range of ground anti-aircraft fire.
The roar of the engine was immediately more than doubled.
Even though the pilot was wearing headphones, the loud roar still rattled his ears.
His brow furrowed, ignoring the discomfort in his ears.
Compared to my own life, those discomforts are only temporary.
If you lose your life, you don't even have the qualifications to experience this discomfort.
The pilot's good fortune came to an end here.
A thick anti-aircraft machine gun bullet easily penetrated the skin of the aircraft and burrowed into the fuel tank.
The spark from the collision of the bullet with the metal fuel tank quickly ignites the fuel next to the bullet.
In the blink of an eye, a spark turns into a raging fire, enveloping the entire fuselage
"Boom ......"
The burning fuel tank quickly exploded under the high temperature, and the fighter plane, which was still showing off its might just now, was instantly dismembered into several parts.
Some burned with raging fires, others emitted black smoke and smashed to the ground together.
"Well, well fought, the record of our air defense battalion has finally broken zero."
"Contact all the troops that can be contacted, there are still five planes in the sky, don't worry, continue to fight steadily, strive to knock them all out, and make a good start!"
