Chapter 222: Flying Three Laps
A large number of bombs carried by the 48 "Flying Fortress" bombers were overwhelmingly dropped on the Shanghai airport, the devil planes on the tarmac were destroyed first, and the planes that were taking off on the runways were basically blown up.
Of the 60 or 70 devil planes at Shanghai Airport, only three or five of them managed to take off, and such a small number of planes were simply not enough for the fighters to stuff their teeth, but in the sky there were four squadrons of fighters circling and escorting them.
The two squadrons of "Flying Fortress" bombers were barely disturbed, and everyone concentrated on dropping bombs to destroy targets on the ground.
Little Japan's planes were almost completely destroyed, and the anti-aircraft fire on the airfield was also dealt a fatal blow, and many little devils who were preparing for air defense were directly blown away, and some were even blown to the point that there was not much left.
Several little devils were hurriedly operating an anti-aircraft machine gun, ready to shoot at the group of fighters in the sky, and the dense and violent explosions around them interfered with these little devils greatly, and several little devils were even shocked by the violent explosion and turned a little pale, and their hearts rolled for a while.
However, these little devils could only endure it, hurriedly and prepared as quickly as possible. Several bombs whizzed towards the area, one of which exploded right next to the anti-aircraft gun.
With a loud "boom", the anti-aircraft machine gun was directly blown away, and some parts and components were seriously deformed in the explosion, and flew out with the air wave of the explosion.
The few little devils who operated this anti-aircraft machine gun were all blown to pieces. It was torn to shreds by the violent explosion, and after the explosion, there was no scum left. A large crater was left in place, as well as some faintly visible bloodstains.
Not far away, there were two large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns, and many little devils were also busy, one of them even began to shoot into the sky, but these bombs just now. Except for one that blew up the anti-aircraft machine gun just now, the rest of the bombs basically exploded near the two anti-aircraft machine guns.
With a few explosions. Almost all of these little devils were killed, and several of them were thrown more than ten meters away by the air waves, and fell heavily to the ground, so that they could not die anymore.
These two anti-aircraft machine guns were also destroyed instantly. The explosion shattered in all directions. Some broken parts also flew everywhere, flying far away, without a trace.
Airfield Command.
From seeing the huge group of planes in the sky, to now there are explosions everywhere, the time is only a few minutes, and seeing that there are explosions everywhere and a sea of fire everywhere, the devil Dazuo hurriedly carried his command knife. Hurriedly ran outside the headquarters.
The Devil's Headquarters is a three-story cement brick building, standing in the three-story headquarters hall. Through the huge window glass, you can see almost the entire Shanghai airport.
Devil Dazuo, as well as a group of devil officers at all levels in the command headquarters, naturally also saw the airport that was almost covered by a violent explosion, and these devil officers, under the leadership of Devil Dazuo, hurriedly walked out, went downstairs, and prepared to run towards the outside of the airport.
On the concrete floor in front of the command building, several large trucks and two or three armored vehicles are ready, and many devil soldiers are preparing to receive these devil officers to evacuate here.
Several "Flying Fortress" bombers had already aimed at the building and began to drop bombs, and after successfully destroying the planes of the little devils and almost completely destroying the anti-aircraft fire of the little devils, they focused on the outbuildings of the airfield.
The command building of Little Japan, the oil depot of the airfield, the ammunition depot, the barracks and other buildings are now the focus of the "Flying Fortress" bombers.
These devil officers, as well as a large number of little devils in the command building, barely had time to evacuate, and a large number of bombs whistled down, accurately hitting the three-story building, sending out earth-shattering explosions.
Even the concrete building could never withstand the heavy bombardment of so many large bombs, and with the sound of dense explosions, the building began to collapse, and it fell down in an instant, raising dust in the sky, and soon turned into a pile of ruins.
A large number of devil officers in the command building, including Devil Dazuo, were all killed or buried alive in this building.
Several large trucks and armored vehicles parked on the cement floor at the entrance were also wiped out in this dense explosion, and several trucks were blown up to the point that there was almost no scum left, and the few slightly stronger armored vehicles were not much better.
These armored vehicles were all piles of scrap metal, piles of wreckage, smoking in place, or simply burning violently.
The oil depot and ammunition depot at the airfield were also heavily bombed almost simultaneously.
A large number of bombs hit these buildings, and the oil depot at the airport must have stored a large amount of fuel, and after being blown up by so many bombs, the oil depot exploded more violently, and the explosion was mixed with flames tens of meters high, which was very spectacular.
After the explosion, the fuel in the oil depot began to burn violently, the flames rose high and high, and the thick black smoke was hundreds of meters high, and the fierce fire could be seen far away.
The ammunition depot at the airport was even more demoralized, and there must have been a large amount of ammunition stored inside, perhaps dozens of tons, or hundreds of tons, anyway, when the martyrdom broke out, a small mushroom cloud also rose, and the earth was almost trembling.
The strong shock wave of the explosion even tore apart everything within a radius of several hundred meters in the vicinity, and some cars parked near the ammunition depot were directly overturned by the shock wave, seriously deformed, and rolled dozens of meters away.
Some of the soldiers on the plane happened to see this spectacular scene, and the soldiers almost raised their arms and cheered, such a scene was very spectacular and very rare.
After the explosion, many little devils have already evacuated, some of them began to run in circles, and some of them climbed into the car and started the car to escape.
In these barracks, there are little Japanese pilots in peacetime, and there are more small Japanese airport ground crews and airport security troops, and the number is not a few thousand, at least one or two thousand.
At this time, at least a dozen "Flying Fortress" bombers began a large-scale bombardment of these barracks. A large number of bombs hit these barracks, sending out violent explosions.
These barracks were destroyed in large numbers in an instant. Many of the little devils inside had not had time to escape at all, and some of the little devils who had escaped from the barracks and did not run far were also affected by the aftermath of the explosion, and there were many dead and injured.
There was a big truck full of little devils, the carriage was full of little devils, and the roof was also full of little devils. Loaded with such little devils, this truck is shaking, driving slowly. They are moving away from these barracks.
However, a few bombs still fell here, and the truck was blown apart and turned into a pile of wreckage. Little devils on trucks. Most of them were blown up or shocked to death.
Next to this truck, there were several same trucks, as well as some little devils who fled in a panic, and a few bombs came down and most of them were killed in an instant.
The bombing lasted almost half an hour, 48 "Bombing Bastion" bombers dropped all their bombs, 4 squadrons of fighters in the sky. Later, they also rushed down and fired several times.
In half an hour, the entire Shanghai airport has been changed beyond recognition. There wasn't a single intact airplane, not a single building still erected, not a single imp still running, not a single intact car.
The ground was full of the wreckage of airplanes, cars, a large number of corpses, many stumps and broken arms, and the buildings of the airport were all in ruins.
At the airport, some wreckage was still burning, there was fire everywhere, smoke everywhere, and in the sky, a huge group of planes began to circle, forming formations, preparing to return home.
The movement at Shanghai Airport is very large, and many people within a few kilometers of the vicinity have seen it, and there are several strongholds and roadblocks not far from here, and these little devils have also seen it.
Everyone's expressions when they saw this scene were completely different.
When the people saw this scene, they couldn't believe it at first, and then their faces were full of excitement, they didn't expect that our Chinese army would have such a powerful air force, and these people saw that the entire Shanghai airport was completely scrapped, and suddenly, joy, pride, and excitement filled the whole body and mind.
Some ordinary people even flushed with excitement and excitement, looking at the direction of the Shanghai airport with thick smoke, and muttering to themselves.
And those little devils, their faces were like ashes, motionless looking at the Shanghai airport in the distance, it was like mourning, and some devil officers hurriedly shook their phones and quickly reported the situation to the headquarters of Little Japan in Shanghai.
The soldiers successfully completed the bombing mission perfectly, and everyone was beaming, began to form a formation, and then flew at a low altitude at an altitude of only about 1,000 meters.
In accordance with Ye Feng's instructions, the formation began to fly at a low altitude over the downtown area of Shanghai, circling three times, and most of the people in the entire downtown Shanghai saw this huge group of planes, whether it was the ordinary people in the urban area, the foreigners in the concessions, and the little Japanese in the urban area.
When the people in the urban area saw so many planes, they panicked at first, thinking that it was a small Japanese plane, and that it was a small Japanese bombing of the urban area on a large scale.
However, these planes did not drop bombs, and the flight altitude was not high, and the weather was fine, so some sharp-eyed people could see that this was our own plane, because there was no plaster sign of Little Japan on the plane, but a sign of blue sky and white sun.
"That's our own plane, the plane of our Chinese army!"
Some ordinary people pointed to the planes in the sky and shouted happily, as if they had discovered a new continent, with a deep sense of joy.
"That's really our plane!"
More and more people have looked at the sky and shouted happily, and there was such a scene in the entire downtown area of Shanghai, whether it was on the street, or in front of the shops, whether it was schools, factories and hospitals, a large number of people pointed to the sky, excited, joyful shouting, cheering.
Especially on the streets, some of the people who heard the shouts flocked to the streets, looked up at the sky, and the streets were soon crowded with ordinary people.
The formation of the fighters' planes has been flying three times, which has made the common people have a good time. It is said that in the next few days, a large number of ordinary people in the streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants are discussing this huge aircraft formation in the sky.
Some ordinary people who didn't see this aircraft formation at that time sighed and sighed deeply that it was a pity that such a thing was actually missed by themselves.
