Chapter 543: Air Supremacy, Devil Bomb

The commander reported the results of the battle to the headquarters, asked for instructions on the attack, and took advantage of the bombing of the enemy to attack and eat part of them. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Hearing this, Xiaolu resolutely stopped it and said, "All units must not attack the Japanese army." Nearly half of the bombs that had just been dropped had not exploded, and the position was very dangerous. Our army rushes forward and loses a large number of men. Wait for the enemy to move and detonate most of the scattered bombs before deciding when to attack. ”

The others understood Koji's order, because when they discussed it with Koji, Koji talked about the danger of such a bomb. Ordinary aerial bombs, if they do not explode, because the number is small, will not affect the lives of the locals, this kind of bomb is different. Division Commander Lin didn't understand very much, and only after understanding the performance of this bomb did he agree not to rush in.

Sure enough, in the hours after the bombing, explosions were heard continuously in the Japanese positions. For the first two or three hours, the explosion went off for a long time, and then it gradually thinned out

June 25, 1942, evening, Xinjing.

The Kwantung Army received a report that after the first round of bombing, the headquarters was bombed, most of the staff commanders were killed, and it was already known that more than 8,000 people were killed and 7,800 were injured. A few hours later, the death toll rose to more than nine thousand, and the number of injured rose to more than ten thousand.

This weapon of mass destruction has never been seen before.

The front demanded a retreat and pulled the troops back into the city of Mukden. The reason is that most of these 80,000 people are recruits, and only the officers are veterans. At present, it is difficult for officers to restrain soldiers, and soldiers are unwilling to fight and do not dare to fight. Only by coming to Mukden and being with the veterans of Mukden can we restore our combat effectiveness.

In addition, both officers and soldiers were afraid of the new weapons of the Eighth Route Army, and if they retreated to the city, the Eighth Route Army would not throw such nasty bombs into the city.

The next day, explosions continued to occur, most of them triggered by people, and only a few by horses or vehicles.

A quarter of the troops were lost, and tens of thousands of wounded began to be transported to Mukden.

The Kwantung Army Headquarters immediately sent a telegram demanding an investigation into what the new weapons of the Eighth Route Army were.

Soon, the results of the investigation came back, it was an aircraft bomb, the bomb left the plane, immediately exploded, turned into a small bomb, the small bomb exploded when it landed, the size was not as good as a grenade, but the explosive force was much greater than that of a grenade, and it exploded a large area as soon as it fell.

Soon, new reports came back, and the power of this weapon was that some bombs did not explode immediately, but instead acted as landmines. Now, explosions often occur in the positions, and the soldiers of the imperial army already have psychological shadows, and do not dare to make tactical moves, for fear of the explosion of mines.

At the moment, four bombs have been recovered, three of which exploded during delivery, and only one did not.

June 25, 1942, evening, Anshan command post.

Senior Commander Lin found Xiaolu and said, "How did you come up with this weapon?" ”

Xiaolu said: "It is related to some ideas of the Soviet Union and the United States, and later, thanks to our engineers and technicians, everyone finally realized this." This time, all the bombs were dropped. Now, though, it looks like the performance is unstable. ”

Master Lin said: "If there are more such weapons, then what tactics do you need?" As long as it is thrown at the enemy's position at the right time, and the enemy suffers a certain number of casualties, then the battle can be over. ”

Xiaolu said: "Strategy and tactics are still needed. Because if the enemy is too scattered, then not many people will die. ”

Master Lin said, "I know. What I mean by this is that such a powerful weapon would revolutionize strategy and tactics. ”

Xiaolu said: "The reconnaissance plane reported that three-quarters of the Japanese positions were bombed, and according to the damage of one-third of the people, then about a quarter of the enemy's casualties were killed. Master Lin, you see, how will we develop next? ”

Master Lin said: "Has there been any change in the enemy's position?" ”

Xiaolu said: "This is a reconnaissance plane report, you can take a look." ”

Master Lin looked at it for a long time and said, "If you use this kind of bomb again, I'm afraid the effect will not be very good." ”

"They've taken precautions. ”

Master Lin said: "You can throw it again, although it can't kill a lot, but it can deter the enemy." ”

Xiaolu said: "We still have more than a dozen of these bombs, so we just threw them all." ”

Master Lin said: "This time, study it carefully, and be sure to throw it in the right place." ”

Xiaolu said: "Okay. Intensified reconnaissance. ”

June 26, 1942, afternoon.

After reconnaissance by aircraft, more than twenty planes were dispatched again, escorted by six fighters, and the rest were bombers The bombers circled high in the sky, circled more than a dozen times, and it seemed to be determined that the fifteen planes were divided into five groups and bombed in five directions.

The second bombing, the bombing site was more accurate, the bombing only lasted for a while, the bomber plane left, and the explosion on the ground seemed to become a carpet, and a dozen carpets were connected into five large pieces. The artillery positions were bombed, the shells were detonated, the explosions were non-stop, and the explosions in several other places were much more sparse.

A fighter plane, used as a reconnaissance plane, had been reconnoitring the sky and saw that the Japanese troops in the ground explosion area were busy non-stop. There were not many people, and the casualties seemed to be large.

There were also sporadic explosions in the blast zone, one after another, and the flames of the explosion could be seen in the sky.

The reconnaissance plane went north and saw that on the road leading from Liaoyang to Shenyang, there were a continuous stream of cars, and all the wounded were transported on it.

A fortuitous event changed the course of the entire campaign.

The reconnaissance plane saw a five-car convoy on the road, heading in the direction of Liaoyang, with soldiers at the beginning and at the end, and three armored vehicles in the middle.

The pilots of the reconnaissance planes saw the anomalies of these vehicles and temporarily decided to attack. The plane swooped down, and the machine guns fired at the car.

A string of machine guns hit the first car from the last car, and the car was shot.

The plane turned back, and a minute later, fired again at the convoy. This time, all the Japanese soldiers in the car got out of the car, some of them set up machine guns and fired into the sky, and some of them fished out in the middle of the three cars.

A car caught fire. After the second shot, all five cars were paralyzed, and three caught fire.

In this way, the reconnaissance plane circled several times, until the bullets ran out, and then flew away.

The reconnaissance plane reported the situation, and Commander Yang sent a ground reconnaissance unit to reconnoiter it. The reconnaissance team arrived at the site of the attack in the darkness of night and saw five damaged cars. The fire on the car has stopped, and Japanese transport vehicles are constantly passing by, all in the direction of Shenyang. Among them, many vehicles were transporting corpses.

The reconnaissance unit immediately reported by radio, suspecting that the Japanese had retreated overnight.

As soon as the command received reports from various units, it was found that the Japanese troops had retreated overnight.

The command urgently issued an order, ordering Li Senwan Quance and other troops to attack overnight, and the attack should be fierce, so that the Japanese army could not retreat smoothly.

At three o'clock in the night, several troops were dispatched together to launch an attack from the west side of the retreating Japanese army, and the attack range was more than 20 miles. In such a long range, there are more than a dozen concentrated battlefields. Because the Japanese army did not know the whole situation of the battlefield in the dark night, they were afraid of being attacked, and did not support the attacked Japanese army.
