Chapter 1285: Bloody Battle Linfen (First Update!) )

Xiong Changhe was glad that the three devil planes hovering over Linfen did not drop bombs.

After five laps back and forth, he flew away, leaving nothing behind.

"Chief of Staff, Regiment Commander Urgent!" Suddenly, the operator rushed in.

Xiong Changhe, who was next to him, immediately asked, "Chief of Staff, what did the regiment commander say?" Is it a devil who has killed him! ”

Xiong Changhe replied angrily: "Old Xiong, you are really a crow's mouth, let you be right!" ”

"The strength of a reinforced wing of the Japanese army has marched towards Linfen City, and it will be able to exchange fire with our troops outside the city in half an hour at most!"

On the other side, Xiao Yunshan's brows quickly furrowed!

"So fast? Chief of Staff, this is not good news! ”

"The devils rushed to Linfen City more than an hour ahead of schedule and attacked us. The purpose is very obvious, to maximize the utilization rate of their aircraft reinforcements. Use more planes to consume us, kill us, and take Linfen City from us! ”

"Not bad!" Xiong Changhe affirmed.

"The head of the regiment is also worried about this, and then he sent us a telegram and sent a report!"

Xiao Yunshan's frowning brows suddenly stretched, and he asked eagerly, "What way?" ”

"Two ways!" Xiong Changhe affirmed.

"The air defense battalion has arrived outside the city, and the regiment commander asked us to send someone out to pick it up!"

"There are more than twenty anti-aircraft machine guns in the air defense battalion, which will definitely pose a great threat to the devil planes! Xiong Changhe, you go to meet them, and then cooperate with them to arrange the empty position! ”

"The second method is smoke, and it should be thick black smoke, preferably to cover all the sky over the battlefield. In this case, even if the devils have planes, they will not be able to accurately drop bombs on us, unless they choose to drop bombs at low altitudes. However, as long as they do, the air defense battalion that is about to enter the city will definitely teach them a big lesson! ”

"The two methods complement each other and combine with each other, and they will definitely minimize the threat of the devil plane to us!"

"Xiao Yunshan, you arrange this matter, it's best to set aside two companies to do this!"

"In addition, the regiment commander asked us to arrange all the troops outside the city to the city, rely on the city wall to fight the devils, try to narrow the scope of the battlefield, and create more smoke to blur the vision of the devil pilots, so that they can't carry out high-altitude bombing!"

In a reinforced concrete turret one kilometer outside Linfen City, Lieutenant General Kato stood behind the shooting hole on the second floor, holding a telescope motionless and staring at Linfen City, with a gloomy face.

The face of the chief of staff next to him was also very unsightly.

He hesitated for a long time before answering: "Division commander, the Eighth Route Army is too cunning to cover the battlefield with thick smoke. In this way, the Imperial Army Aviation will be much less of a threat to them, and there will be no way to carry out accurate bombing! ”

Lieutenant General Kato replied with a calm face: "These Eighth Route Army are indeed more cunning than we imagined. ”

"However, the Imperial Army is not vegetarian either. Aviation forces can't deliver accurate bombs at high altitudes, they can drop bombs at low altitudes, and the accuracy is better! ”

"In addition to aviation, we also have artillery! Although there is no heavy artillery, the remaining mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and mortars are also very powerful! ”

"Now we have aviation cover, and the Eighth Route Army does not dare to use artillery if it has it. What we have to do is to seize this opportunity, give full play to the power of the remaining artillery in our hands, try to kill and injure the Eighth Route Army in the city, kill them, and take Linfen City! ”

After saying that, he ordered without waiting for the chief of staff to speak.

"The plan remains the same, launch an attack in five minutes, and strive to take Linfen City in two hours!"

"There are not many Eighth Route Army in the city, as long as our offensive is fierce enough, we will definitely be able to do it."

"Dada...... Boom Boom Boom ......"

The sound of gunfire, explosions, soon enveloped the entire battlefield.

More than 10 mountain guns, more than 20 infantry guns, plus three times the number of mortars, shells did not cost money to drop shells on the city.

It didn't take long for the city to be covered by heavy artillery fire.

Fireballs mixed with billowing smoke rose into the air, and black pillars of smoke rose into the sky, intertwined with the black smoke created by the defenders themselves, and became a piece, looking from a distance, it was as if a dark cloud pressed down from the sky, covering the sky and the sun, giving people a feeling that the black clouds were crushing the city and wanted to destroy it.

However, no matter how fierce the devil's artillery fire was, the more than 20 fixed fire points on the city were not destroyed.

Bullets rained down on the outside of the city, sweeping the attacking Japanese troops to the ground.

More than 100 meters outside the city, two or three hundred corpses have fallen scattered.

"Division commander, you can't rush anymore~ The dozens of firepower points on the city wall are definitely permanent firepower points, and our artillery can't blow them up at all. With such fierce blocking firepower, as long as they have enough ammunition, no matter how many of our attacking troops will be killed! The chief of staff reminded with a pained expression.

Commander Kato's heart is also dripping blood.

Less than ten minutes after the start of the battle, the real assault had not yet begun, and two infantry squadrons were gone.

He didn't dare to imagine how many people would be left of an infantry wing he had brought with him after the real assault began.

Gritting his teeth, he ordered: "The troops stop attacking......"

"The aviation troops will immediately bomb the firepower points of the Eighth Route Army on the city wall, destroy them for me!"

"Buzz ......"

The planes reacted quickly, and as soon as the attacking troops withdrew, a huge engine roar sounded.

A plane slowly lowered its altitude and rushed towards the head of the city with thick smoke billowing out.

Seeing that the plane was about to rush to the top of the city, it was about to drop the bomb.

A series of slightly dull machine-gun fires suddenly sounded at the head of the city, and then eight or nine lines of anti-aircraft fire appeared at the head of the city filled with gunsmoke.

With so much firepower concentrated on the plane, which was less than 200 meters above the ground, Lieutenant General Kato could clearly see through the telescope that several bullets had penetrated the fuselage, leaving a row of bullet holes in the plane.

The pilot was also frightened by the sudden anti-aircraft fire, and regardless of whether he was aiming at the target or not, he pressed the bomb drop button, pulled up the control stick of the plane and began to climb.

With cold sweat on his forehead and his eyes staring motionless, the plane dodged left and right to avoid the anti-aircraft fire fired at him from the ground.

200 meters...... 300 meters......

Seeing that the plane was about to break out of the effective range of the anti-aircraft machine gun, and the pilot couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the plane engine suddenly made a few crackling clicks, and then the high-speed aircraft engine stopped spinning, and a puff of black smoke came out.

"Yaga!"

The pilot was desperate and cursed loudly.

After feeling that the plane had changed from climbing to free fall, although I was unwilling, I still decisively pressed the escape button and made the decision to parachute to escape!
