Chapter 611: Carpet Bombing

Zheng Zhilong also knew that now was not the time to be a hero, and he had to leave immediately.

"Big brother, don't worry!" Zheng Zhibao said loudly.

At this time, the city of Zhongzuo was already in chaos, and the battle and artillery fire that had just occurred near the city shook the sky, causing even more panic among the people in the city.

Zheng Zhilong led the Black Guards and the Japanese Guards to Huangshumen, the north gate of Zhongzuosuo City, and with him 3,000 Zheng soldiers, their first destination was Tong'an, on the other side of Xiamen Island, where they joined most of the Zheng family.

It was only now decided to retreat, and the time was very rushed, and the Tiance army had already reached the vicinity of Zhongzuo City. Although the Zheng family lost nearly 10,000 troops in the first battle, they still had 30,000 troops, including reinforcements from Tong'an.

Judging from the battle just now, it is still difficult for Zheng Zhilong to evacuate safely, so after Zheng Zhilong arrived at the north gate, he ordered the north gate to be opened and let the people out of the city to avoid the war, which was actually to create chaos.

There are more than 100,000 residents in the city, many of whom have taken refuge from outside the city, and the residents here are rich because of business, so what they are most afraid of is war, which means the destruction of order, and their lives and property will be threatened.

Outside, there was a lot of artillery fire, and the people were panicked, and many people wanted to escape from the city. Because the Tiance army came too quickly, the people were locked up in the city. After receiving Zheng Zhilong's order, the wealthy families in the city all helped the old and the young, and rushed to the north gate that had been opened, preparing to hide in the mountains.

The Black Guards and the Japanese Guards protected Zheng Zhilong to go out of the city first and ran in the direction of the Puzhao Temple at Wulao Peak, while the rest of the Zheng army pressed behind.

There were also a large number of people who retreated with the Zheng army out of the city, and the city was located on the narrow plain between the Wulao Peak and the sea, and the Furong Tunnel had not yet been dug at this time. Wulao Peak, with many mountains and dense forests, is very beneficial for individuals to hide their whereabouts, so most of the people also chose this area to escape the war.

Lin Jinming, head of the Fujian region of the Military Investigation Bureau, reported to Wang Yue: "Report to the commander, I just received a message from the agents in the city, Zheng Zhilong is likely to have evacuated out of the city. ”

Li Guochang, chief of staff of the Navy, also reported to Wang Yue: "After drone reconnaissance, a large number of Zheng soldiers and civilians are evacuating from the north gate of Zhongzuo, and many black soldiers have been found among them, and it is judged that they should be Zheng Zhilong's personal guard." ”

It is difficult for the agents of the Investigation Bureau to break into the Zheng family's internal line in a short period of time, so they can only observe and judge. The Tiance Army has an overwhelming military advantage over the Zheng family, and the work of assigning intelligence personnel is mainly to investigate the people's situation and observe the Zheng family's dynamics, so as to do preliminary research for the future reception of Fujian.

"Zheng Zhilong should have run away, the battle outside the city of Zhongzuo just now has exposed the firepower of our army."

Wang Yue said to the commander of the navy, Wei Xiaoliang: "Immediately send ships to block the coast of Xiamen Island, especially in the direction of Tong'an and Anping. ”

Wei Xiaoliang said: "Yes! ”

Wang Yue said to Xue Jinhua, commander of the Air Force: "All helicopters will be lifted into the air at once to strike at all ships that intend to cross north and the Zheng army that has fled. ”

Xue Jinhua saluted and said, "Yes!" ”

At present, the establishment of the air force is relatively small, and the commander of the air force is tentatively set at the regimental level, and Xue Jinhua is one of the first 12 pilots trained by the Tiance Army.

Wang Yue added: "The bombing of the retreating troops of the Zheng army is to clear the obstacles for the subsequent marines to parachute in to capture Zheng Zhilong, but to avoid accidentally injuring the people." ”

"Humble duty understands!" Xue Jinhua said.

Wang Yue said to Feng Yuanshan: "Yuanshan, immediately divide a battalion and take forty armored vehicles to quickly block the roads around Wulao Peak. ”

As he spoke, he looked at his watch and said, "The rest of the troops immediately launched an attack on the center and left, demanding that it be taken before twelve o'clock at noon." ”

Now there are still three hours and 20 minutes before 12 o'clock, and most of the Zheng army's troops on Xiamen Island will be solved by solving the Zhongzuo office, and the rest of the work is to catch the turtle in Zheng Zhilong's urn.

"Yes!" Feng Yuanshan Road.

Zheng Zhilong's escape area was blocked by mechanized troops on land, and the escape area was blocked by naval warships of the Tiance Army on the periphery, coupled with air strikes and captures, Zheng Zhilong enjoyed the three-dimensional attack of the navy, land and air forces in advance, and his escape road could only be full of tragedy.

After receiving the order, 21 Wuzhi-18 and 6 Wuzhi-9 helicopters on board took off one after another, formed in the air, and rushed to the target area.

The target area of the six Wuzhi-9 helicopters was the Zheng army on Wulao Peak, which was evacuating northward.

The distance of less than 10 kilometers was instantaneous, and six Wuzhi-9 helicopters fired at Zheng Jun who was going up the mountain, and small shells of 23 mm cannons rained down, and dense explosions sounded in the crowd of Zheng troops, and the mountain roads on Wulao Peak were soon covered with corpses and rivers of blood.

Something that can fly in the sky is scary enough, and this thing is so sharp at killing. The soldiers of the Zheng army were frightened into the souls of their bodies, and those who were fortunate enough not to be taken care of by the small cannonballs were crazy and rushed to the mountains, or burrowed into the dense forest, or looked for shelter, hoping that these monsters would not see themselves.

In the battle of the Taiwan Strait, Zheng Zhilong had seen a helicopter and knew that this monster was owned by the Tiance Army, so he accelerated the pace of escape.

The ammunition load of the Wuzhi-9 helicopter was only 480 rounds of 23-millimeter small artillery shells against the infantry, and of course the six helicopters could not completely annihilate more than 4,000 Zheng troops.

Zheng Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the six monsters gone, and many people crawled out of their hiding places and looked at the sky cautiously, only then did they pick up the wounded, pick up the discarded blades and other things, and continue to walk towards the mountain.

Then there was a louder "buzzing" sound in the sky, and the Zheng soldiers looked at the sky in disbelief, only to realize that a larger group of planes was approaching.

"I'm dripping mom!" Zheng Jun shouted, leaving everything behind and fleeing in all directions.

Twenty-one Z-18 transport helicopters came, the main purpose of which was to carry personnel and cargo, and their own armament was only machine guns. But now the Zhibai is being used as a strategic bomber by the Tiance Army.

With a total take-off weight of 13.8 tons and a carrying capacity of 6 tons, each of the 21 Z-18 was loaded with 100-millimeter mortar shells for strategic bombing missions.

After reaching the air above the target, 21 Zhi-18 transport planes slowly passed through and dropped bombs one after another, launching a carpet bombing of the Zheng army on Wulao Peak.

Hundred-millimeter mortar shells whizzed and rained down, and huge explosions resounded in the sky. Any concealment at this time is futile, and carpet bombing is all-round without dead ends.
