Chapter 300: Aerial Scouting
After entering the city, everyone came to the street, and they didn't see a single little devil, but some ordinary people on the street were a little panicked when they saw so many cavalry soldiers suddenly appearing. Many ordinary people do not know that this unit, which is wearing camouflage uniforms and riding tall horses, is the cavalry of the 36th Group Army.
Many soldiers, seeing the people on the street have avoided one after another, a panic, some of the people also closed the gate, the soldiers had to slow down a little, to prevent the war horses from trampling on the people along the way, smile at the people from time to time, try to alleviate the panic of the people.
At this time, I don't know who it was, but I found that this unusual unit was the legendary 36th Group Army, so some people began to shout happily: "Folks, don't be afraid, these are the cavalry soldiers of the 36th Group Army, and they are here to fight the little devils." ”
Many of the people who heard the shouts gradually calmed down, and many of the people who had just closed the gate began to carefully open their doors again, and some of the people, seeing the mighty soldiers, began to cheer.
The soldiers on the horses saw that the people began to welcome themselves slowly, and the smiles on the faces of the soldiers became even stronger, and some ordinary people on the street began to take the initiative to give way to the soldiers, so that the soldiers could pass as soon as possible.
Ten minutes later, a battalion led by a regiment commander came to the outside of the little devil headquarters, and when he saw the empty little devil headquarters, the first regiment commander immediately ordered: "Quickly send a report to the division commander, the second brigade of the little devil cavalry has all fled." ”
Sun Chuanzhi, who received the telegram, was also slightly surprised to see that all the little devils had fled, because, yesterday afternoon, during the aerial reconnaissance of the flying brigade, the second cavalry brigade of the little devils was still in Baotou, and now, they all escaped.
Sun Chuanzhi scolded secretly in his heart, cunning little devil, look where you are fleeing.
Seeing this, Wu Youqing, the commander of the armored division next to him, immediately suggested: "Old Sun, let's hurry up and report to the commander-in-chief, and ask the flying team to find out the movements of the little devil as soon as possible." ”
"Well, that's the only way, and there is no point in our troops advancing to Baotou any further, we must quickly order our troops to stop, stand by and wait for the results of the reconnaissance of the flying group." Sun Chuanzhi said.
"That's my opinion, too." Wu Youqing immediately agreed.
Command of the 36th Army.
Receiving the telegram from Sun Chuanzhi and Wu Youqing, Zhang Yunfei smiled slightly, and thought to himself, sure enough, the little devil ran away overnight as he expected.
Zhang Yunfei walked to the front of the map in a few steps, looking at the terrain near Baotou, Zhang Yunfei predicted that the little devil was the most likely to escape north, so Zhang Yunfei smiled and said to everyone: "Comrades, the little devil escaped overnight last night, let's talk about whether the little devil can escape from our Wuzhi Mountain." ”
Comrade Zuo Qingquan, chief of the General Staff, smiled lightly, "Commander-in-chief, the little devil has a cavalry brigade and regiment, tens of thousands of people, and the target is relatively large. ”
Comrade Deng Wenping, director of the General Political Department, also said with great confidence: "Commander-in-chief, although the cavalry of the little devils runs fast, our off-road vehicles, armored vehicles and tanks run faster. ”
After listening to everyone's speeches, Zhang Yunfei immediately said to the correspondent: "Immediately convey my order, and order the flight brigade to step up reconnaissance, focusing on the location about 100 kilometers north of Baotou, and report as soon as there is news." ”
A few minutes later, planes from Datong Airport took off and flew to the north of Baotou......
To the north of Baotou, on the grassland more than 110 kilometers away from Baotou, thousands of little devil cavalry are scattered on the grassland to rest, and some little devils even make fires there to cook and prepare breakfast.
Since yesterday evening, the little devils began to flee for their lives, after a night of tossing, many of the little devils are tired and hungry, as soon as the sky dawns, the commander of the little devil brigade saw that the troops have left Baotou so far, temporarily safe, so the commander of the little devil brigade ordered the troops to rest temporarily.
The little devil is also a human being, and he knows that he is tired, and he knows that he is hungry, and the little devil is running for his life, his nerves are highly tense, and his whole body and mind are very easy to get tired, so. With the order of the commander of the little devil brigade, the little devils immediately rested on the ground without any image, and some of the little devils were still busy cooking.
The commander of the little devil brigade, looking at the little devils around, his face was also helpless, and he only hoped to rest quickly, and then leave here quickly, and some other problems, the commander of the little devil brigade had no time to take care of.
When the little devil was resting there, Gao Zhihang at this time was already driving a Mustang fighter plane and was about to fly to the place where the little devil was. Gao Zhihang, who piloted the Mustang fighter, felt very good, and the excellent surname of the Mustang fighter made Gao Zhihang look very happy.
In the high altitude, Gao Zhihang also took advantage of the excitement to do a few difficult actions, and the pilots of the other two Mustang fighters who flew in formation with Gao Zhihang saw that their captain's piloting skills were so good, and such actions could be completed beautifully, and they were secretly admired.
The current Gao Zhihang, after completing a few difficult actions, his face is a little flushed, and he is in a very good mood, but what is a fly in the ointment is that everyone has been investigating for nearly half an hour, and there is still no trace of the little devils.
After a handful of addictions, Gao Zhihang also began to slowly calm down, maintain a flight altitude of 5000 meters, and continue to reconnoiter north, today's weather is good, cloudless, and the visibility is also very high.
The three planes, maintaining formation, the pilots were all engrossed in looking down, checking the clues of the little devil, and Gao Zhihang, who was concentrating on reconnaissance, also notified the other two pilots through the radio system, "Everyone, pay attention, concentrate, the little devil may be around here." ”
Not long after Gao Zhihang's words fell, a pilot made a discovery, and saw the pilot say in surprise: "Captain, if you look at the direction of 10 o'clock, it seems that there is a little smoke." ”
Hearing this, Gao Zhihang looked in the direction of 10 o'clock, only to see this direction, in the distant sky, faintly you can see wisps of white smoke slowly rising, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see clearly, because not only is the distance a little far, but also after these smoke rise a few hundred meters, it is blown by the wind, and it is already very light.
I really admired the pilot's eyesight, such a long distance, such a faint wisp of green smoke, was also discovered. In addition to admiration, Gao Zhihang was also happy in his heart, there were so many cigarettes in that direction, which showed that there were a lot of people there.
Gao Zhihang, who was overjoyed in his heart, immediately said loudly: "Comrades, lower the altitude, fly at an altitude of three thousand meters, azimuth, 10 o'clock." ”
With Gao Zhihang's order, the three Mustang fighters immediately lowered their altitude and flew in the direction of light smoke, and in less than a few minutes, everyone flew to the place where there was light smoke.
I saw that on the ground, on the vast grassland, a lot of little devils were resting there, looking at the number of people, there were at least several thousand, in order to further clarify the situation, Gao Zhihang commanded everyone, descended two thousand meters, and maintained a safe altitude of one thousand meters to the devils, Gao Zhihang began to drive the plane to hover above the head of the little devils.
The imps resting on the ground first heard the roar of airplanes, and then saw three airplanes, flying lower and lower, and began to hover above their heads.
Seeing this situation, many little devils began to panic, because, at an altitude of one thousand meters, the little devils could already see the style of the plane, not to mention that there were many little devil commanders, and the commander of the little devils could see more clearly with a telescope.
These three planes were obviously not planes of their own troops, and these planes, like the planes that appeared frequently a few days ago and circled over Baotou for reconnaissance, were the planes of the squadron.
Many little devils who saw the plane in the sky began to hurriedly look for their war horses, and turned over on their horses, obviously preparing to flee for their lives, and some of the little devils who were still eating also immediately stopped eating, packed up their things, and prepared to retreat.
The brigade commander of the little devil, at this time, also saw the Chinese fighters in the sky, using the telescope, Komura Jiro could see the situation of the three Chinese planes clearly, and even, with the smug smile of the Chinese pilot, Komura Jiro could see a rough idea.
Jiro Komura looked at the plane in the sky, and then at the panicked little devils around him, his face was pale, and he shouted angrily: "Yaga! What are you panicking about, the pursuers of the [***] team are still far away, this is just a reconnaissance plane of the [***] team. ”
The captain of the first wing of the little devil cavalry, looking at the flustered and not angry little devils in his wing, was also furious, and felt that he had lost face in front of his brigade commander.
The captain of the first wing of the little devil cavalry immediately reprimanded those little devils, and it took a long time for those panicked little devils to calm down a little.
Gao Zhihang in the sky, looking at the "wonderful" performance of the little devil, smiled happily, and said happily into his wireless phone: "Comrades, contact the airport immediately, report the situation of the little devil back, and let the airport report to the commander-in-chief immediately." ”
The other two pilots also saw the panicked performance of the little devils just now, and they were also in a very good mood.
