Chapter 221: Shanghai 14
Woo Woo Woo .........
Several Type 38 field guns bombarded the position of the 156th Brigade without any scruples, and Weng Zhaoyuan lay dead in the improvised trench like the other soldiers, in this situation he could only pray that the artillery would not fall on top of his head. At this point, the soldiers of a brigade in his hand are now only more than 2,000 left, and more than half of them have lost, but now both the Japanese army and the national * army are now fighting to the last moment, and it depends on who can't withstand it first.
Take off the hat, pat off the mud and sand, and put it back on. In the line of sight, several soldiers took a lot of guns and ammunition from the corpses of the Japanese soldiers and crawled with difficulty, and the soldier at the front of the line accidentally took a cannon and couldn't even find the corpse. But such a tragic death has long been strange in the eyes of the soldiers, and few people will be intimidated by such a death.
"Onboard!" At this time, the Japanese army was undoubtedly crazy in time, and in the case of their own firepower occupying absolute superiority, the momentum of the charge was stronger than one time, and those who could not do it at the squadron level directly used the pig assault tactics at the brigade level. Nearly 1,000 people roared and rushed over in the not spacious line of sight, giving people a visual impact that was very shocking.
All the way to the east, the fighters who took off from the airport arrived at the battlefield of blood and fire in Shanghai, and it would not take more than 35 minutes to reach the sky over Shanghai at a normal cruising speed. The red sun hung overhead. In late March, there is already some spring in the sea, but flying a plane above the sky is still biting cold. The cold air poured into the pilots sitting in the open cabin. Rarely exposed skin can feel like a knife. But all this is nothing to the pilots who have become accustomed to it.
"Attention, Japanese planes! Four eighty-nine ships attacked. Four Nakajima Type 91 destroyers. There were six more bombers. Shoot down these bastards! Chen Honglu yelled. One of the planes brought from Lanzhou was shot down by the Japanese army, one was repaired at the airport, and only 6 fighters remained, and the other 3 bombers did not suffer any losses. The bombers were hanging far behind their buttocks, and at this time, the six planes led by Chen Honglu and Jiang Xingcheng had already pounced on the Japanese troops on the opposite side like open fangs in accordance with the usual combat methods.
"Fighters of the Chinese Army!" At this time, the Japanese aircraft also discovered Chen Honglu's aircraft formation. And those Kawasaki Type 87 heavy explosions, Type 89 light explosions are also trying to identify the strength of the enemy army. In contrast, these pilots were more willing to face the enemies in Nanjing than the air force of the 15th Route Army. After all, after experiencing such a tragic battle as the Fengtian War, the rookies have all fallen to the ground or been blown to pieces directly in the air, and those who remain are the elites of a hundred battles. In the first air battle, the Japanese Air Force was defeated by the Shina Army with an astonishing record of four to one, which really disgraced the Japanese Air Force in the world.
The sun rose from the east, and Chen Honglu's formation came all the way to the east, originally facing the sun, which was at a disadvantage, but according to more air combat experience. The enemy was one step ahead of the enemy, and then the two-plane formation spread out to the two wings. Minimise the downside. The Japanese planes took advantage of the backlight and began to climb, but the planes of Chen Honglu and others had also risen quickly, and they were not much behind the Japanese planes. Soon the planes of both sides became entangled. The two surplus Japanese fighters showed their superiority at this time.
"Damn it!" When Jiang Xingcheng had just used the roll to shake off his opponent, there was already a Japanese attack on the right side. The wingman has been entangled by enemy planes, and he can't get out for a while. But the pilots of the Japanese aircraft were still a little tender after all. If he desperately seizes the height and takes advantage of the opportunity for him to get rid of his opponent and swoops down, he is really hanging, and there is still some vitality now. The plane operated by Jiang Xingcheng suddenly rose in height, took advantage of the car's excellent turning performance to throw out a small arc, and then rushed towards the other party with the momentum of the same end. The Japanese pilots panicked and began to get out of the way. Da Da ...... At the same time, Jiang Xingcheng fired a string of bullets. Boom, the Japanese fighter plane fell far to the ground with black smoke.
"Called Zhang San to come over to help, but I didn't expect it to be Li Si." Weng Zhaoyuan muttered below, the only dozen or so 75MM mountain guns of several divisions of the 19th Route Army combined suffered heavy losses in successive battles with the Japanese army, and they faced the heavy fire suppressive artillery bombardment of the Japanese army. The infantry casualties were too great, and the 19th Route Army had to hit Jiang Wenhao's mixed 4th brigade, who made Jiang Wenhao's mixed brigade firepower more fierce than their 19th Route Army combined.
Weng Zhaoyuan, as a person who asked for fire support, naturally knew that the other party was coming, but when he saw these Japanese planes overhead, Weng Zhaoyuan also admired the timely adjustments made by the above, if there were no these planes to help, even if the artillery was transferred, I am afraid it would not be pleased. Those comrades-in-arms in the sky were also really competitive, and in several fierce air battles, they could only suppress their own planes when the Japanese planes had an absolute numerical superiority. At this time, in the case of the same number, the turtles were eaten, and one was shot down in a few face-to-face efforts.
The small black dots smashed into the Japanese positions with a sharp whistle that broke through the air, and sparks exploded.
150MM HEAVY MORTAR! Hearing the sound of artillery, Weng Zhaoyuan, who was overjoyed when he saw the Japanese position, was overjoyed, and thought that it would be good to have a team of planes to support, but he didn't expect that there would be a lot of aircraft artillery. 75MM MOUNTAIN ARTILLERY, FIELD ARTILLERY IS BY NO MEANS THIS MOVEMENT. The 82MM mortar is like a compared to this. If you think about it with your ass, you can know that it is the artillery support of the 4th Brigade that has arrived. In fact, Weng Zhaoyuan thought about it, at this time, for the national * army, the Shanghai battlefield was a fire field, there were fires everywhere, and the troops as support were like firefighting teams. Neither Zhang Zhizhong nor Cai Tingkai had the luxury of using two firefighting teams in one place. The heavenly air force rushed to the vicinity of Tianjia Village to support after receiving the telegram taken back by Zhou Xiong, and the encounter with the Japanese plane group over Weng Zhaoyuan was just a coincidence. The battlefield is a place full of accidents, and the two opposing factions occasionally fight a small and fierce air battle in the wrong place.
"Hurry up, let Yu Xiangbo, Ma is free, that kid beats the soldiers in the camp for a while, it's a rare opportunity!" Weng Zhaoyuan immediately made preparations to take advantage of the situation, and those who have been fighting hard for a long time also cherish the time when they can take advantage of it.
Over there, Yu Xiangbo and Ma Zizi led less than 200 soldiers in the battalion to charge back for a while being blown up. The hundreds of Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front were beaten as water dogs. It wasn't until the remaining Japanese troops came back with a roar of artillery fire that Yu Xiangbo and the others withdrew in time after making enough gains. A Mitsubishi Eighty-Seven type in the sky was not able to see the light bombardment, and it swept down from the sky and rushed towards the retreating aftermath hundreds of soldiers.
However, this lightly bombed fighter plane was soon used to dive to get rid of Chen Honglu, who was behind the enemy plane, and was very unlucky to be hit by the roaring bullet and fell to the ground, under the strong inertia, the body slid out of the ground, and the wooden wings were broken and thrown down and killed an unlucky soldier.
"Damn, how can the Air Force guys who grew up eating shit not be able to come over!" Dao Heng Xiaoqing saw that the army in front of him had been killed to the edge of the woods, and he was anxious as if he was something. With the distance of the aircraft carrier here, you can climb even if you climb.
Airplanes......
The sparse group of planes in the sky finally appeared, and the air battle on Weng Zhaoyuan's side finally ended, and this air battle ended with Chen Honglu's side once again winning a three-to-one record due to a lot of fuel consumption, and then retreated west with the group. This erroneous air battle also made Weng Zhaoyuan choose a big bargain. It is rare to enjoy the combination of air and ground attack means against the enemy. The Japanese planes took off from the aircraft carrier, and the flight range was much less economical than that of Chen Honglu and others. There was also spare strength to carry out fire support for the Japanese brigade in Tianjia Village. (To be continued.) )
