"Okay," Han Xing said, "please tell me carefully about the situation of the Japanese air force and the situation of the heavy artillery unit?" ”

Yu Xuezhong immediately called a few staff officers, and handed over the location and organization of the Japanese heavy artillery units on the military map to Han Xing's hands. Han Xing immediately said to Zhang Xiaosan: "Immediately ask someone to escort this map to the headquarters of the Southern Expeditionary Army, hand it over to Commander Zhang and Commander Xu, and bring back a radio station, and we will keep in touch with the air force of the Southern Expeditionary Army at any time." ”

Zhang Xiaosan stood up and replied: "Yes!" "Immediately arrange for someone to carry out the order.

Not long after, the soldiers of the special operations battalion brought back a radio and telegraph operator, and Han Xing immediately contacted Xu Da directly: "Is it Commander Xu, temporarily stop the paratroopers and prepare for the air attack on the Japanese army first." ”

Xu Da said: "I listen to you, first stop the airborne, and the transport plane is converted into an aerial bomb." I have already seen the position of the heavy artillery units of the Japanese army, and it seems that this time our air force is going to show its face again, so let the little devils taste the taste of our aerial bombs! ”

In order to observe the effect of the air attack more effectively, Yu Xuezhong and Han Xing went to the forefront of the trenches.

At this time, the Japanese air force began to attack again, and four 96-1 fighters began to bomb the foremost fortifications one after another, they first dived down from a high altitude, and rampantly approached the ground at a distance of 100 meters or 50 meters.

As for the soldiers of the 51st Army, some of them carried light machine guns and fired fiercely at the sky, and some soldiers held medium rifles and fired at enemy planes one by one. Some of the soldiers simply took refuge in the fortifications with their heads in their hands, covering their ears to avoid the shrill dive of planes and the bombs that were about to fall on their heads.

The Japanese air force laughed and some soldiers could even see the smug smile and unstoppable pride of the Japanese pilot.

These Japanese air units, facing the fortifications of the Nationalist army, dropped 25-kilogram and 50-kilogram aerial bombs almost above their heads. Each aircraft can carry 200 kg of aerial bombs.

The 25-kilogram aerial bomb has a killing radius of less than 50 meters, and the 100-kilogram aerial bomb has a killing radius of 80 meters. Even a one-meter-thick air-raid shelter could not prevent the violent explosion of a 100-kilogram aerial bomb.

What is even more terrifying is that it has created an even bigger shadow in the psychology of the officers and men of the country, destroying the morale of the officers and men of the country.

After the 96-1 fighters dropped aerial bombs, they followed the side of the forward fortifications, that is, along the north side of the forward fortifications, and then strafed them from north to south, so that almost all the soldiers of the national army at the front could be swept away. It is like a death harvester, constantly harvesting the lives of young national soldiers.

These hateful Japanese fighters strafed the lives of the soldiers of the Nationalist Army, and the heavy artillery of the Japanese army came again. Hordes of shells fell on the fortifications of the national army, destroying one fortification after another, destroying lives one by one, as well as seriously injured, lightly wounded, broken arms and legs, which was really miserable.

Han Xing closed his eyes, he really couldn't look any further, the gap between science and technology and military tactics had caused huge casualties among the national army, both physical and mental.

Yu Xuezhong also sighed and said: "There is no way, there are no planes, no heavy artillery, no shells, no anti-aircraft guns, no heavy machine guns, you can only be beaten." Our casualties were not inflicted by bayonets and hand-to-hand combat, but by the enemy's heavy weapons. It has not been a day since the start of the war, and we have suffered more than 3,000 casualties, nearly a third, which is terrible, and if we continue to fight, the casualties will be even more severe, and it will be more difficult for us. ”

The Japanese planes and heavy artillery were finished, and the infantry began to charge again.

A Japanese brigade, with a total strength of more than 1,100 people, under the cover of heavy machine guns, mortars, and light machine guns, launched an orderly attack on our position.

The 51st Army was arranged in a zigzag formation along the outside of Lu'an City, on a width of seven or eight miles, but in fact, the deployment of troops in every place was not very thick. The Japanese army, on the other hand, attacked one point, that is, concentrated the strength of this brigade to attack the Chinese army, and at this point, it had a considerable superiority in strength.

As for the Chinese defenders in other places, the Japanese army also carried out fire pinning, and the Japanese army had this strength and these advanced weapons. Their mortars and heavy artillery continued to bombard these places, so that the Chinese soldiers in these defensive areas had to be severely attacked by Japanese fire if they wanted to lean out to support the attacked areas.

Han Xing sighed again and said, "This is the tactic, this is the shortcoming of insufficient firepower!" ”

Yu Xuezhong also sighed and said to Han Xing: "In such an offensive and defensive situation, if my brother can come up with any good way, I should listen to my eldest brother." ”

Han Xing shook his head and said, "I don't have any good way, I can only rely on the courage of blood and qi to fight to the death with the devil." ”

The shouts of the Japanese attack on the positions were earth-shattering, and the sounds of light and heavy machine guns and grenades were loud, mixed with the hoarse shouts of hand-to-hand combat. Fortunately, the soldiers of the 51st Army built a steel wall with flesh and blood, and the position was not broken through by the Japanese army.

At this time, Han Xing suddenly remembered a question and asked Yu Xuezhong: "If the position is broken through once it is broken, then where is the next deep fortification?" ”

Yu Xuezhong shook his head and said, "There is another fortification, how can we have so many troops." If the Japanese break through this line of defense, we will have to engage in street fighting with the enemy in Lu'an City. ”

Han Xing's face became very ugly for a while, that is to say, if the Japanese army broke through any intermediate line of defense and expanded along this line of defense, then all the field fortifications outside Lu'an City would be broken through. Some of the soldiers in the field fortifications will be surrounded and annihilated, while others will retreat to the city to engage in street battles with the Japanese army.

In that case, the defeat of the 51st Army is already decided.

After the defeat of the Japanese army, there was silence on the battlefield for a long time, which was the Japanese army gathering strength. Sure enough, more than an hour later, the Japanese army began a new offensive.

The tactical table is the same as written in advance, this time the Japanese army gathered four 96-1 monoplane fighters in the sky, formed a neat team, and slowly flew from afar, to the city of Lu'an, they began to slowly descend in altitude, and then dive down one after another.

The 51st Army's positions stopped resisting this time, and the light machine guns and rifles did not go off. Anyway, you can't hit the plane, so you just bomb, and we admit it.

Xiao Wen, the pilot of the first 96-1 fighter, smiled proudly, the last time the 100-kilogram bomb exploded, it was not enjoyable, and the bomb was dropped 80 meters away, this time it must be shorter, 30 meters away, and then it was dropped, and the bomb was dropped on the top of the heads of the Chinese soldiers, which is called a good time!

He smirked and swooped viciously at the battalion headquarters of a Chinese soldier, the large dome-shaped fortification.

"500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters, 150 meters......" Just when he was about to succeed, he suddenly felt a flying machine dragging a long fire tail and crashed into his own plane, causing a burst of fire, and the huge shock wave instantly rushed itself into the east, west, north and south.

"What's going on...... he didn't understand what was going on until he died, so he went to report to His Majesty the Emperor of Japan.

This scene also made Yu Xuezhong see it clearly, and he shouted: "Well done, this is the position of the Weiqing battalion, it must be the air defense weapons in the Weiqing battalion that shot down this enemy plane, I ...... I have to reward them well, and I will personally bring them meritorious service medals. ”

Just when Xuezhong was excited, another strange thing happened. The three 96-1 fighters in the sky suddenly exploded one after another, blowing the planes to smithereens, turning into a rain of steel in the sky, which was very spectacular.

"This ...... This...... What's going on," even Yu Xuezhong, who had been in battle for a long time, felt a little inexplicable, "What's wrong with these Japanese fighters, could it be said that they committed suicide?" ”

"Do you believe they will kill themselves?" Han Xing asked rhetorically.

"No," Yu Xuezhong said to himself, "but to say that they were attacked by the Chinese Air Force or your Southern Expeditionary Army, is it unlikely?" I don't see a shadow of Chinese planes. ”

"That's right if you didn't see it," Han Xing said. In my heart, the maximum distance of the Thunderbolt-8 air-to-air missile is 15 kilometers, 15 kilometers away, and it is so high in the air, can you see the J-20 fighters of the Southern Expeditionary Army?

After a while, four Y-8-transport planes, escorted by four J-20 fighters, lined up in a neat formation and roared to the foot of Lu'an City, which made Yu Xuezhong feel worried first: "Which country's plane is this, if it is a Japanese plane, it will be troublesome." These planes are so big, so big that they are simply a little frightening. Air defense-air defense-"

Yu Xuezhong is not surprised by Japan's 96-1 fighters, they are all used to it, but when he sees such a large Y-8-transport plane and J-20 fighter, he still seems a little scared. The damage caused by those small Japanese planes already made him feel uneasy, and if such a large plane was blown up, it would be worth it.

However, the performance below the Y-8-transport plane and the J-20 fighter plane made his eyes shine.

First of all, the J-20 fighters believed that the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position that posed the most threat to the air attack carried out an air-to-ground missile attack, and four Blue Arrow-7 air-to-surface missiles, with their tails dragging long tongues of fire, flew towards the enemy's artillery position, "boom-" "boom-" "boom-"

After the explosion of the four missiles, it caused a sea of fire, burning almost all the anti-aircraft guns and heavy artillery positions of the Japanese army, in the blazing heat, let alone burns, the Japanese soldiers were very difficult to breathe, they all tore their throats, pulled their collars, and looked very painful, and after a while, the flames continued to enter the airway, entered the lungs, and burned the lungs to make it difficult to breathe and suffocate to death.
