Chapter Eighty-Six: The Bomber Group Reappears
The reconnaissance planes sent to Shillong failed to return on time, and the Japanese troops, who were still waiting for news, somewhat knew that these two reconnaissance planes were only afraid of bad luck. But in this way, the Japanese army confirmed that there were many unknown secrets in that remote town.
Four reconnaissance planes were again sent over Shillong, only to be shot down three more. The only reconnaissance plane that escaped was finally brought back information that shocked the Japanese army. In that small town of Shillong, there is actually a valley airport.
Thinking of the flight group that was ambushed over Longzhou City a few days ago, the Japanese army's special high class said excitedly: "Yo! I see! I couldn't figure it out before, the flight in Kuncheng was not dispatched, and the plane from the Zhina Army came there.
Unexpectedly, the government of China secretly built a valley airport in that small city. Yaga! If we hadn't been vigilant, the sudden appearance of these fighters on the battlefield would have caused fatal damage to the front-line combat troops! ”
Combined with the intelligence detected by the reconnaissance plane, the Japanese army quickly figured out where the plane that ambushed their fighter plane in the previous time came from. Hearing this news, the little devil's naval aviation naturally seemed more excited than the special high class.
The commander of naval aviation, who was bent on revenge, immediately said: "Organize a large formation and give me the destruction of the valley airfield of the Chinese people." I want the Chinese army to know that the sky will always belong to us. I don't want to see other fighters! ”
"Hey!"
The naval aviation, which accompanied the little devils, again organized long-range bombing in large formations. The air defense forces, which have already thwarted two Japanese attacks, are also well aware that there is a tough battle to be fought next. In this regard, the air defense battalion was also carefully prepared.
Even Hu Biao, who learned the news, showed a sneer and said: "It turns out that the little devils want to take the initiative to find death, so give them an unexpected surprise!" Inform the Seawolf Commandos and find an opportunity to sink the little devil's aircraft carrier in the open sea! ”
"Wolf Head, the Sea Wolf Commandos have just returned, is it really good to send them to attack?"
"Don't worry! When the little devils' fighter formations leave, the protection capability of their fleet will be greatly reduced. Without the air cover of aircraft, the warships of these little devils will have a hard time reaching the raid of our submarine formations.
If the aircraft carrier of the little devil is not severely damaged, I believe that the follow-up bombing will continue one after another. This time, I want to let the little devils know that when they get to this place in the South China Sea, they will have to be extra careful in the future. If you dare to go wild, then go to the sea to feed the fish! ”
"Yes, wolfhead!"
Seawolf Commando, the second sea force under Hu Biao. Compared with the Sea Hawk commando team served by Lin Haoyuan, it has been conducting formation training in the Indian Ocean. This submarine formation has also just been in service for a short time.
The submarines equipped, without exception, were all procured from Menia. The first batch of submarine officers and men recruited were also elites selected from the domestic navy. After being secretly sent to Luzon for training, the submarines were driven back to the Gulf of Tonkin not long ago.
And the submarine base where the Seawolf commando team is located was also secretly built by Hu Biao. On the surface, it's just an uninhabited desert island. But in fact, the submarine base is located in the interior of the island, and there is an underwater passage that allows the submarine to float.
This secret submarine base is actually one of the secret bases known to Hu Biao in later generations. In this life, in order to find a secret base suitable for concealment and prevention of Japanese searches for the submarine base, Hu Biao made use of it.
Although the little devil is near Qiong Island, there is an island airfield where fighters can take off and land. But Hu Biao knows very well that the aircraft carrier of the little devil is the biggest threat. With aircraft carriers and little devil fighters, they can carry out take-off and landing missions in any sea area.
If the aircraft carrier sent by the little devil to help in the war can be sunk, it is believed that it will also be a great blow to the Japanese army. Even Hu Biao was sure that the Meminian military and the countries that colonized Indochina would be happy to see the fate of the little devil aircraft carrier sunk.
The aircraft carrier formation, even the little devils, did not get too close to the coastal ports of the Indian detachment. However, the appearance of this aircraft carrier formation still brought vigilance and worry to the fleets of the colonial countries along the coast, for fear of being attacked by the little devils.
As Hu Biao issued the combat target, the Seawolf Commando, who was conducting sea condition reconnaissance in the nearby sea areas recently, also felt extremely surprised. But in addition to the surprise, they felt extremely surprised.
"Pull the alarm! Level 1 Combat Readiness! ”
With the commando leader's order, the submarine base located in the belly of the mountain soon heard a piercing siren. Unless someone is on the island, no sound can be heard from within the mountain. The concealment of the base can be seen!
When the commanders of the ships arrived, the commando leader said with a serious expression: "Brothers, since the day you joined the Seawolf Commando, I believe that you are like me, dreaming of making trouble with the little devils and avenging our predecessors.
Now's your chance! This is the sortie order just sent by the wolf head, let us all the sea wolf commandos attack, and be sure to sink the aircraft carrier that the little devil parked in the open sea, as well as the other warships of the aircraft carrier formation. In this battle, only success is allowed, not defeat! ”
"Yes, Captain!"
"I have already sent electricity to the Seawolf 8 before, and the location of the Japanese aircraft carrier formation is already known. Just half an hour ago, the formation of little devils' fighters had already lifted off and left. This also means that the little devils will be left without air defense for a short time.
This will also reduce a certain number of threats for us. The boats rushed to the sea area as fast as possible, and then adopted the tactics of a wolf raid to strive for an aircraft carrier formation that would severely damage the little devils. Let the wolf head see the results of our training during this time! ”
With the commando captain's order, except for a few people left behind, the submarines moored at the pier on the mountainside began to sink one after another, and then quickly left the base along the underwater passage and rushed to the sea area where the Japanese aircraft carrier was located.
In fact, the Seawolf commando stationed in the submarine base has been responsible for maritime monitoring and remote observation of every move of the little devil aircraft carrier formation in recent times. It's just that Hu Biao had a strict order before, and he was not allowed to attack without an order.
And today, they finally waited for the order to strike. For these officers and men, all of whom were born in the navy of the Republic of China without exception, they have been waiting for this day for too long. They are also desperate to make a vengeful voice that belongs to their navy.
When the bomber group of the little devils finally arrived in the sky above Shillong, the people of Shillong, who had heard the air defense sirens for three consecutive days, also had a premonition that during this time, they were afraid that they would not have a peaceful life.
Fortunately, every time the little devil plane appeared, they had already taken refuge in the bomb shelter in advance. Moreover, the county government also promised that if people's houses were destroyed in the air raids, the county government would also pay and send people to rebuild their homes.
With this commitment, the people also feel at ease to stay in the bomb shelter. If it takes too long, the security personnel of the bomb shelter will also provide them with food. Overall, this arrangement has made the people feel a lot more at ease.
With the reconnaissance plane that was lucky enough to escape the previous time to lead the way, the little devil's bomber formation soon found the valley where the airfield was located. Looking at the dense jungle on both sides of the valley, as well as the relatively narrow valley, the little devil also felt a little tricky.
"Yaga! These people are very good at choosing places, and if they want to bomb the airfield located in the valley, they can only reduce the flight altitude. It seems that without rushing the anti-aircraft fire on both sides of the valley, it will be difficult for our bombers to accurately bomb the airfields in the valley! ”
"Let's strike!"
After discussing with gestures, several navigators returned to the fighter formation they were responsible for. When the first group of fighters began to dive from a high altitude and bomb and strafe both sides of the valley, the air defense battalion was also ready to open fire.
Looking at the formation of Japanese fighters flying over the valley, the air defense battalion commander said with a somewhat serious expression: "Grandma, the little devil really looks up to us!" There are at least hundreds of fighters in this plane, right? ”
"I guess it's just a little more! Battalion commander, isn't that what we've always expected? There are forts built for cover, and as long as there is enough ammunition, the little devils will not want to break through our anti-aircraft fire. Fight a few more enemy planes and let the little devils know how good we are! ”
"Good! Notify the whole battalion and get ready for engagement! Anti-aircraft artillery, all on standby, no artillery is allowed without my order! First concentrate on anti-aircraft machine guns and small-caliber anti-aircraft guns, and first compete with the fighters of the little devils! ”
"Understood!"
Through the anti-aircraft fort built in advance, the air defense battalion commander was also observing the movements of the Japanese fighter formation. Seeing a squadron of fighters from the little devil, he quickly began to dive and strafe, and the commander of the air defense battalion also said directly: "Prepare all gun positions!" ”
The signal men who stayed in the fortress, each with a telephone, shouted inside: "The gunner is in position!" ”
"Hit!"
"Hit!"
In order to provide the best air defense effect, a telephone was installed between the command fort and each fort. Through telephone remote control, the air defense battalion commander can get in touch with the air defense fortresses at any time and direct the change of fire direction of the air defense fortresses.
Seeing the Japanese fighters flying over the valley, they were so arrogant and directly dispatched a number of fighters to try to break through the fire network of the air defense battalion. The commander of the air defense battalion naturally did not mind and let him feel what it was like to have a chain of death.
Anti-aircraft fire installed on both sides of the valley fired bullets and shells at almost the same time. The crossfire formed instantly enveloped the Japanese fighters who rushed to the front. Under the volley of gunfire, these fighters were immediately exploded.
The Japanese fighters who were diving behind suddenly had a sense of shock, and exclaimed: "Yaga! How is this possible? Damn it! Pull up, pull up quickly! Oh no, I got shot! I've been shot! ”
Screams and screams like these, accompanied by the downed warplanes, soon resounded over the valley and on the ground. The Japanese pilots, who were watching the battle from a high altitude, also immediately realized that they would have to pay a great price if they wanted to break through the anti-aircraft fire blockade in the valley.
If there are too many fighters and pilots lost, even if the airfield below is destroyed, I am afraid that the fighter formation that comes out this time will also be broken. At the end of the day, it takes a lot of time and effort to train a qualified pilot.
In this kind of battle, the Japanese army is afraid that it will not be able to withstand a few such losses!
