"Boom, boom, boom......"

The continuous shells continued to explode in the sky, and the dense shells formed a black barrage in the sky.

Looking at the formation of fighters tossed in the artillery fire, Tsuchida Yongxiang couldn't help but scold: "Baga, damn the people of China actually have large-caliber anti-aircraft guns!" ”

Unlike Tsuchida Yusho, the commander of the flight formation in the sky, Tatsuya Nagata, had already been prepared, and he said loudly to the microphone: "Attention to all units...... Attention to all units...... There was anti-aircraft artillery below, and the escort squadron immediately broke away from the formation to take cover, and the bombing squadron climbed to an altitude of nine thousand meters, waiting for the escort squadron to clear the channel before attacking. ”

"Understood!"

Soon a dull answer came from the headset, and the six Nakajima fighters flicked their wings and swooped down towards the ground.

With the increasing attention to Su Jin, the Japanese army's understanding of the 202nd Division has also deepened, and now the information about Su Jin and various situations about the 202nd Division has long been compiled into a thick booklet by the Japanese army's intelligence department, and the news that the 202nd Division has an air defense unit equipped with large-caliber anti-aircraft guns is naturally known to the Japanese high-level, not to mention the 3rd Flying Division, which has dealt with the 202nd Division several times.

However, Nagata Tatsuya's order was still given a little late, and as soon as he finished giving the order, he saw a black ball of light resounding near a Type 93 heavy explosion plane less than 300 meters away from him in front of him, and the violent explosion and shock wave pushed the heavy explosion plane more than ten meters higher in a few seconds. When the smoke of the explosion cleared, the right wing of the heavy bomb plane had already been cut off in half, and the Type 93 heavy bomber that had lost half of its wings smoked black smoke and reluctantly planted it to the ground.

Tatsuya Nagata couldn't have imagined it. He had just entered the battlefield before he could drop a bomb when he lost a heavy explosive plane, and he immediately shouted in tears when he saw it: "Climb...... Climb urgently and avoid the artillery fire of the China! ”

In fact, what Nagata Tatsu didn't know was that because he didn't have his own air force, Su Jin had always spared no effort in the construction of air defense forces, and after expanding it into a division-level unit, he divided the original air defense regiment into three, and expanded three air defense regiments at once. Even the newly formed armored regiment established a battalion of anti-aircraft artillery, equipped with self-propelled Dongfeng anti-aircraft guns and self-propelled Whirlwind anti-aircraft guns.

In the face of Su Jin's big move. The people below are not without words, and some people suggested that the number of anti-aircraft artillery could be appropriately reduced and more M101 howitzers could be equipped, but Su Jin blocked their words with a word.

"You're clamoring for more howitzers. But if the little devil's plane comes, are you going to shrink your head and be an ostrich and let the Japanese kick your ass? ”

Su Jin's words immediately made everyone dumbfounded. They have tried the power of Japanese aircraft, and as soon as the plane comes, the loss of ground troops can make people feel distressed to death.

In order to deal with the increasingly severe air threat, Su Jin also got the proximity fuze as a big killer, and after equipping the proximity fuze, this M2 90mm anti-aircraft gun equipped with an electric fuse and a firefighting computer can be regarded as having the ability to compete with the aircraft in the sky.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The shells in the sky became denser and denser, and the thick black smoke stained the blue sky black, and although Tatsu Nagata gave the order to climb in time, a heavy explosion plane had already been destroyed. Two more were damaged.

Just as the air defense battalion was fighting in high spirits, one of the observers pointed to the sky and shouted: "Japanese fighters." They're down! ”

As the sound of the observers fell, the remaining 20-mm and 57-mm anti-aircraft guns on the position also opened fire one after another, and the whole sky was full of scurrying Japanese planes and shells chasing behind their butts.

Just when the anti-aircraft artillery was happily killing the Japanese planes, in the woods two kilometers away from the rear of Xiaobaoshan, eight No. 4 tanks painted gray-green slowly drove into the woods under the command of several soldiers.

At this time, Freman, who was wearing a black armored uniform and wearing the rank of colonel on his collar, used a telescope to observe Xiaobaoshan, which was filled with gunpowder, and felt the thunderous shelling The shock caused by this intensive shelling is definitely not something that can be felt on the training ground, at this time, Fred's eyes looked at Xiaobaoshan in the smoke with excited eyes, this will be the first time that the 202nd Division uses armored power, and it is also the first time that Freman commands a combat vehicle to carry out an actual attack.

A crisp voice with a hint of hoarseness sounded behind him: "Report, the 1st Heavy Tank Battalion of the Armored Regiment has all arrived, except for the five No. 4 tanks that have problems halfway and have not had time to repair and are towed by trailers, the rest of the vehicles can be put into battle immediately!" ”

Fred turned around and saw Adele standing behind him saluting him, Adele, who is 1.72 meters tall, has a ******** figure, and her black uniform sets off her extraordinarily slender, and her long legs are particularly eye-catching.

Fred nodded, returned the salute casually and said solemnly: "Your current mission is not over, and you will lead the non-commissioned officers to inspect and repair all the armored vehicles later, although we don't need to act immediately now, but I don't want the vehicle to break down after the combat order is issued." ”

"Yes!"

Adele saluted solemnly and immediately walked back, now the armored regiment has just been established, the officers and soldiers are seriously inexperienced, and the failure of the vehicle is not very good to deal with, all of this has to be taught by Adele and Fred, although they have been learning theoretical knowledge for more than two months, and they have also repaired it themselves for a period of time, but when they actually operate it, they find that there are far more problems than they imagined.

On the road of more than 300 kilometers from Nanchang to Jiujiang, these seemingly sturdy and abnormal tanks have all kinds of tempers on the road from time to time, constantly breaking down, dropping chains, and motive failures, etc., which have been bothering the tank crews all the time. If the tankers are all skilled veterans, these small problems should be a very simple matter for them, and they can deal with them in a short time, but for the armored soldiers, who are almost all novices, these problems are big problems, but fortunately, they finally rushed to Xiaobaoshan after stumbling along the way.

Originally, Su Jin planned to let the armored regiment train for another two months before they gradually began to contact actual combat, but then Fred's words finally convinced him.

"One actual combat is far more useful than three months of training on the training ground."

Su Jin thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed to Fred's request.

This march was, to be honest, not a long-distance march, and the journey of more than 300 kilometers was not long. But in the eyes of these rookie armored soldiers, it is a miracle that they can successfully reach this place this time, regardless of whether they drop the chain during the battle or not. Since its formation, the armored regiment has never carried out a long-distance march of more than 300 kilometers like this one, and the tank unit has taken more than a dozen field repair courses and obstacle removal classes on the way to the march, and it is good that it can drive here without falling apart.

"Bang dang" a crisp sound, a tank commander put the huge and heavy wrench in his hand on the ground, at this time he was already covered in sweat, after two hours of nervous busyness, he and his three tankmen finally repaired the faulty engine, looking at the engine that spewed choking smoke again, his sweaty dark face smiled.

The driver on the side also lay on the ground, "Oh my mother, it's finally fixed, this steel master is really not good to serve, it's so delicate, he loses his temper at every turn!" ”

"You still have the face to say!" The commander glared at the young driver dissatisfied: "If it weren't for your kid's driving skills, our engine would have lost its temper, but this time it's just that the engine parts are loose, if there is a problem with the gearbox, I think you will cry to death!" ”

The driver touched his head embarrassedly: "Haven't we yet figured out the temper of this fourth master, don't worry, I have also figured out some rules along the way, and I will never be reckless in the future!" ”

As he spoke, there was a sudden roar from the side, and a small tank painted in camouflage sped from one side of the forest into the other woods, and behind it was a sky of dust.

Looking at the tank that suddenly appeared, the young driver couldn't help but sigh: "I really envy those guys who drive the "second master", that thing is light and dexterous, and it rarely goes wrong, compared to our fourth master, it is much more flexible!" ”

The second master mentioned by the driver is a reconnaissance tank nicknamed "Lynx" belonging to the reconnaissance company, which is an improved version of the No. 2 tank, so it is also nicknamed the second master by the armored troops, and the No. 4 tank is naturally called the fourth master.

The commander pursed his lips, patted the No. 4 tank on the side and said proudly: "Don't envy others, the second master is certainly flexible, but its thin skin can withstand machine gun bullets at most, if it is touched by an infantry gun, it will have to lie on its stomach." Look how good our fourth master is, the skin is thick and the meat is thick, and the infantry artillery can't gnaw on it, this alone is not enough for your kid Niu! ”

"That's just as well!" The armored soldiers next to him nodded one after another, although this fourth master is a little difficult to serve, but its skin is thick and thick, and it is really difficult to destroy it with the ordinary artillery of a small Japanese. (To be continued.) )
