Li Haoran piloted his dive bomber, pulling up from a height close to the ground amid the whistling sound of air currents. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The plane raised its nose, leaving behind it a massive explosion on the ground to drown out all the sound. The mechanics sitting in the back aimed their machine guns at possible targets, only to find themselves doing little more.

The huge explosion destroyed the Japanese position, lifting the Japanese soldiers inside into the air, and the weapons on the position were blown into parts, and the surrounding Japanese soldiers fell to the ground.

The second dive bomber cut into the Japanese position at the same time as Li Haoran's tail, and it dropped two bombs in another place, blowing up a trench.

As soon as the hazy weather cleared, the air force of the Ming Empire kicked off the attack, and although the Japanese army was prepared, it was still unable to adapt to the air pressure of the Ming Empire in a short time.

As mentioned earlier, Japan ignored its own air defense while all-out on the tank forces of the Ming Empire.

They pinned all their hopes on the Shenlong-1 fighter, but unfortunately, it was obvious that the Shenlong-1 fighter was not able to complete the mission given to it by the Japanese military.

In the process of fighting with the Ming Empire's Sky Breaking 2 fighter, it did not achieve the advantage it deserved, and finally made the Japanese lose valuable air supremacy.

Losing air supremacy, if it was 2 years ago, would not be a big deal, so before the war, the Japanese army naively thought that it would never be a problem to press hope on the Shenlong 1 fighter.

But who would have thought that the world is impermanent, and the bomber force of the Ming Empire is more powerful than their Sky Breaking 2 fighters?

This method of suppressing the ground from above the sky was unheard of in the past, and even today, the Japanese army does not dare to really believe that its opponent can use aircraft to suppress ground targets and achieve the goal of the campaign.

Li Haoran's Long Knife troops were ordered to suppress the Japanese front line and prepare for the next advance of ground troops.

As for the Djinn 1 bomber unit, the tasks received are different.

100 Djinshin-1 medium-range bombers were ordered to bomb Pyongyang, dropping 600 300-kilogram aerial bombs in one fell swoop, turning it into ruins.

This is only part of the air force, 100 Djindols are taking care of Pyongyang, and another 100 Djins are flying to Suncheon.

Again, there these planes dropped massive bombs, turning the city full of burning smoke and craters of rubble.

What made Li Haoran a little bored was that the Japanese army did not have any decent anti-aircraft artillery, nor did they send fighter planes to intercept them.

So the prepared air battle did not break out. On the contrary, the air force of the Ming Dynasty was like entering a no-man's land, and unscrupulously carried out large-scale destruction of the Japanese army that had no power to fight back.

"There is so much smoke on the ground that I can't see the target anymore, and the aerial bombs have been used up, so I ask to return!" Looking at the defensive positions of the Japanese army, which was already billowing with thick smoke, Li Haoran opened his mouth and called by radio.

Soon, he received an order to return home, and the task of attacking the Japanese line was temporarily suspended. Their Lei Gong 1 dive bomber had to go back to reload and take off again to accompany the ground forces in the attack.

After this incident, the shelling of large-caliber artillery in the sky has already begun. The artillery superiority of the Ming army was not only reflected in the number of cannons, but also in the caliber of the artillery.

Although a few days of wind and snow gave the Japanese army a rare respite, it also gave the troops of the Ming Empire time to transport the slow-moving heavy artillery to the front line.

The caliber of these heavy guns is even 200 mm, and the destructive power of the shells fired is very amazing. Dozens of such artillery pieces made the Japanese positions lively.

It was not easy to survive the Lei Gong 1 dive bomber hovering in the sky, but the heavy artillery of the Ming Empire roared again, and the Japanese soldiers immediately felt despair.

"How can flesh and blood withstand such an attack?" Putting down his binoculars, Mitsui Takanomiya let out a helpless sigh.

He originally thought that there was a problem with Miyamoto Arihito's command, and the Japanese army lost so quickly. Later, I felt that it was the Ming army that caught Miyamoto by surprise with new weapons, which caused the Japanese army to collapse and lose the defense line of the Yalu River.

But now he knew that just the frontal attack of the Ming Empire could make it very difficult for the Japanese army to defend.

"Yamaguchi-kun, if I suggest abandoning the Korean Peninsula...... Will the base camp agree? Mitsui Takanomiya suddenly asked such a question.

In his heart, he already had the idea that the Korean Peninsula could not be held, and he was unwilling to let the blood and bones of the Japanese army be lost here, which would eventually affect the future of Japan.

If the Japanese army loses 500,000 here, or worse, 700,000, what will be left of the Japanese mainland?

Jiro Yamaguchi sighed, he didn't know how to answer, or rather, in this situation, there was really not much that Japan could hold onto.

With the loss of Liaodong's steel and the containment of hundreds of thousands of Liaodong rebels, the pressure on Japan from the Ming Empire has reached the point of panic.

And if the rare metal mines in northern Korea are lost, Japan will become a poor country through and through, how can it compete with the Ming Empire in industry?

Add to that the loss of millions of local natives on the Korean Peninsula and millions of Japanese immigrants. How many years will it take for Japan to recover?

In other words, when the Ming Empire has accumulated the strength to land on the Japanese mainland, how likely is it that Japan will succeed in resisting?

Giving up the Korean Peninsula and retreating to the mainland may still be a struggle in the short term. But what about ten years from now? Twenty years from now?

Japan, having lost its mainland, will one day be conquered by the Ming Dynasty again - and this time, apparently, for the last time.

With the advancement of science and technology, the distance of the strait has become easier to cross, and the original natural hazard has become an ordinary trench that can be easily crossed.

"General Mitsui...... With all due respect, in this case, there is not much difference between us guarding this place and not guarding this place. Jiro Yamaguchi weighed it up and gave a vague suggestion.

He didn't say anything, but Mitsui Takanomiya knew what he said, and he was quite pessimistic.

In the eyes of both of them, holding on to the remaining Korean Peninsula and retreating back to the Japanese mainland were in fact no different - the outcome was pessimistic, and quite pessimistic. (To be continued.) )
