Chapter 499: Paratrooper Assault (I)

The sound of more than 200 large transport planes in the dark and silent night sky was so loud that even the deadliest sleepers were awakened by the deafening roar.

In the headquarters of Dingzhou City, the sleepy Kazuki Qingji was woken up by a hurried knock on the door, and the guards shouted eagerly in front of the door: "Your Excellency Commander, the people of China have launched an attack!" The sentinels reported that a large number of paratroopers had been spotted in the sky. ”

"Nani! A large number of paratroopers? ”

There was a "bang", and there seemed to be something in the house. After a while, the sleepy-eyed Kazuki Kiyoji hurriedly opened the door, he grabbed the guard's collar and asked loudly, "How many paratroopers are there?" In what direction? ”

The guard's face was full of panic: "I don't know, it's everywhere in the sky." ”

"Yaga!" The fiery Kazuki Kiyoji immediately gave the guard two slaps, "It's all a bunch of rubbish, quick, go to the war room." ”

The parachute landing of the 1st Airborne Division has officially begun, and white umbrella flowers are floating everywhere in the sky above Dingzhou City.

"Knock knock......" The anti-aircraft artillery deployed by the Japanese army in and outside the city had already opened fire with the assistance of searchlights. At the same time, flares were also fired into the air, and in the fire net woven by anti-aircraft shells, giant transport planes were shuttling back and forth, and from time to time planes were hit, and the flames of the explosion stained the entire night sky.

On one of the unfinished positions of the Japanese army, Park Changshun excitedly encouraged his companions around him: "Comrades, the Chinese have launched an attack, and we must also be prepared, once they attack here, we will cooperate with the Chinese soldiers to seize the position of the invaders." ”

"Wow," Wang Yilong struggled to manipulate the parachute against the cold wind and landed in a bush. Wang Yilong, who was sitting on the ground, felt a tingling pain spread from his buttocks to his brain.

“！ Why did you fall here so unlucky? Struggling to stand up, he pulled out a thorn stuck in his buttocks, and muttered in a low voice, "Why don't those bastards from the equipment department give us a pair of bulletproof pants, this is already the sixth pair of pants that Lao Tzu has changed this year." ”

Wang Yilong, who was numb and stinging in his buttocks, limped to the side, Article 26 of the Paratrooper Combat Code: The first thing to do after landing safely is to find a companion as soon as possible, and the sentence that there is strength in numbers is definitely a truth.

After parachuting in an area of tens or even hundreds of square kilometers, it would be very good luck for a unit commander to be able to gather half of the personnel of his headquarters, and after half an hour of hard work, Wang Yilong finally gathered more than 60 soldiers, of whom he knew less than 20 people, and the highest rank was him, a lieutenant.

Half an hour had passed since the airborne time, and intermittent gunfire had already sounded not far away.

Wang Yilong waved his hand and ran towards the place where the gunshots rang out

On an antiaircraft artillery position of the Japanese army, more than 20 Japanese soldiers were manipulating three Type 88 75-mm antiaircraft guns to shoot desperately in the air. Two powerful searchlights are constantly searching back and forth for the transport plane in the sky.

The Type 88 75-mm anti-aircraft gun was one of the main antiaircraft guns of the army during the war, and it was still one of the world's best-performing 75-mm antiaircraft guns at the beginning of its service in 1927. The Japanese usually used it as an anti-aircraft gun, but today it is a very effective weapon against transport planes that are slow and can only fly at low altitudes. The Type 90 howitzer it launched can kill and damage within a radius of 18 meters, and more than a dozen 'giant' transport planes have already been destroyed or damaged by it just now.

Now there was a detachment of paratroopers trying to attack them, but there was a squadron of Japanese troops around this anti-aircraft artillery position, and this group of paratroopers attacked several times but still did not attack.

When Wang Yilong came to the vicinity of this antiaircraft artillery position with the paratroopers who had just been gathered, he saw a force of more than 30 paratroopers being crushed by the Japanese army in a hollow, and the rain of bullets weighed them down so that they could not raise their heads.

"Sir, let's go over and help." A second lieutenant was about to take the soldiers over for reinforcements, but was stopped by Wang Yilong.

"What did you do in the past? Want to be pinned down there with those brethren? Use your brain. Wang Yilong grabbed the impulsive ensign. After observing the terrain, he said to the second lieutenant: "Judging from the firepower of the little devils, they obviously have more people than us, and the consequence of a frontal attack is that like those brothers in front, we will not do that stupid thing." You attack from the left with a team, and I take the rest of the people to attack from the right, remember not to attack hard! ”

"Yes!" The second lieutenant took the order and left.

Wang Yilong and the rest of the paratroopers quietly touched the right flank of the Japanese position, and when Wang Yilong just touched the front fifty meters of the position, he found that several black shadows appeared in front of him and were bending down and running towards them. Just as Wang Yilong was about to shoot, the black shadow in front of him shouted in a low voice: "Don't shoot, we are North Koreans, and we are here to help you." ”

Wang Yilong ordered in a low voice: "Don't shoot, let them come." ”

Several dark shadows quickly came to them, and a man in the middle panted and said in a northeastern accent: "Hello, my name is Park Changshun." We are glorious members of the Workers' Party of Korea, and we have been ordered by our great leader, Comrade Kim Sung-ju, to help you seize the positions of the Japanese army, you ......"

"Okay," Wang Yilong interrupted the man impatiently, "you tell me how many Japanese troops there are, how their firepower is, and how the structure of this position is." ”

Park Changshun was stunned for a moment and replied: "The defenders here are about one squadron of about one hundred and eighty people, equipped with six Type 92 heavy machine guns and a small number of grenadiers. The position here has not yet been constructed, so there are still a lot of dead ends, and our men can show you the way. ”

"Okay, you quickly find three people to show us the way." The military situation was urgent, and Wang Yilong did not talk nonsense, and immediately divided the people into three combat groups, led by senior sergeants and sergeant majors, and attacked separately towards the three communication trenches.

Led by Korean laborers, each combat group was led by two soldiers armed with 'ant' submachine guns in front of the road, followed by several riflemen or machine gunners, and so on all the way to the center of the Japanese army.

The power of the 'ant' submachine gun was exerted to the extreme in the narrow terrain of the communication trench, and in close contact, the Japanese army's long Type 38 rifle was too slow to move in the narrow communication trench, and was swept down by the paratrooper stormtroopers one by one.

When Wang Yilong and his team attacked not far from the central position of the Japanese army, they were suppressed by a Type 92 heavy machine gun spitting flames. One of the non-commissioned officers shouted loudly, "Grenades!" Knock out the little devil's machine gun! ”

"Knock, knock!"

Several riflemen immediately switched to empty cartridges, inserted grenades into the muzzle of their guns, and pulled the trigger almost simultaneously, and several 43-millimeter grenades flew towards the Japanese machine-gun fortifications that were firing indiscriminately.

Dozens of soldiers had already rushed to the end of the communication trench at this time, and in front of them was the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position.

"Comrades in China, the front is the position of the Japanese army, as long as they are eliminated, the victory will be ours." Park Changshun shouted loudly on the side.

"Why does this kid sound so familiar!" Wang Yilong listened to these seemingly familiar words, and couldn't help muttering a little in his heart.

"Bang!" A dull gunshot rang out from a dark corner, and Pu Chang, who was running forward with the team, fell to the ground in obedience.

The paratroopers fell down in response and shot in the direction of the gunshot, Wang Yilong glanced at Park Changshun, who was lying beside him with his eyes open, and suddenly remembered, "Damn, I said, how can it sound so familiar, it turns out that what this kid said is exactly the same as what the political commissar said, no wonder so many people don't beat the little devil but beat you, this kid died unjustly." ”

"Boom" The explosion of two grenades came, and the Japanese soldiers who were hiding in the dark and firing cold guns immediately stopped moving, and while the smoke had not yet dissipated, Wang Yilong led the soldiers to rush towards the anti-aircraft artillery that was still firing desperately into the sky.

In the dense gunfire, those stubborn Japanese gunners fell to the ground one after another, and the originally rumbling artillery on this position suddenly stopped.

"Nani? What's going on, why don't the anti-aircraft guns fight? The Japanese squadron leader, who was directing the Japanese troops to fire at the forward position, shouted and asked.

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, no, the Chinese Army has already occupied our anti-aircraft artillery positions." The soldier next to him shouted with a crying voice.

"Baga, you hurry back with me to recapture the anti-aircraft artillery position, otherwise you will all die." The Japanese squadron leader rushed back with a small group of Japanese soldiers in a fit of rage. As the commander of the defensive anti-aircraft artillery position, he knew exactly what would await him if the position was lost.

As the Japanese forces on the position decreased, the firepower suddenly weakened, and the paratroopers, who had been suppressed miserably, finally had a chance to counterattack. With the support of the only MG42 machine gun, the paratroopers gradually touched the front of the Japanese position.

"Boom, boom, boom......" In the explosion of grenades, the frontal position of the Japanese army was finally torn open a gap.

"Fast forward to the traffic trench!" A captain led the soldiers into the gap, and a fierce battle took place in the trench.
