Chapter 809: A Dizzying Loss

On the first day of the UN attack, there was basically no progress, but the losses were extremely heavy under the defense of the Free Corps Air Force and Army, and the commanders of the UN forces were a little pessimistic about the rest of the battle.

The United Nations forces paid such a big price, and the losses of the Free Corps itself were not small, and when the commanders of the United Nations forces were counting the losses of various countries, Lin Daxin also received reports of losses from the Free Corps Air Force and Army.

The Freikorps Air Force lost a total of 28 fifth-generation fighters, 62 fourth-generation fighters, 120 third-generation fighters, 4 strategic bombers, 4 electronic planes, and 4 early warning planes in several air battles.

The Freikorps Army also lost 79 large-caliber guns in the battle on September 26, and the casualties of the Biochemical Army officers and soldiers exceeded 1,500, and most of the casualties were generated during the artillery battle with the United Nations artillery units, because the fighters of the United Nations forces were entangled with the fighters of the Free Corps Air Force, so the air raids of the United Nations forces on the first day did not bring too much damage to the area of San Juan Town and Denkel Town defended by the Free Corps Army.

Although the loss of the Free Corps was not small on the first day alone, Lin Daxin was still very satisfied with the results achieved by the Free Corps Air Force and the Army today, especially the biochemical pilots of the Free Corps Air Force, who relied on their skilled air combat technology to suppress the air force of the entire United Nations force, and also sank one British Navy aircraft carrier in the counterattack, which was a big surprise.

If it weren't for the fact that among the fighters of the Freikorps Air Force today, there are many third-generation fighters, that is, the J-7 fighters and J-8 fighters purchased from China, and they still have a big gap in performance in the face of the fourth-generation fighters and fifth-generation fighters of the United Nations forces, and 120 of them were destroyed in the air battle, only in exchange for less than half of the fighters of the United Nations forces, otherwise the battle losses of the fighters of the two sides would be even greater. Then the air force of the United Nations forces will not lose more than 130 fighters than the air force of the Free Corps.

After suffering heavy losses, the air force of the United Nations forces temporarily stopped attacking the Free Corps at about 9 o'clock on the night of September 26, but Lin Daxin was not prepared to let the United Nations forces stop if they wanted to.

Moreover, although Lin Daxin asked the Free Corps Army to build a large number of fortifications in the San Juan Town area and Denkel Town area in central Luzon, and looked like he was stubbornly defending the above two areas, the battlefield situation was changing rapidly, and Lin Daxin would not stick to dogmatism.

Defensive operations in the area of San Juan Town and Denkel Town were also conducted in order to launch a counterattack against United Nations forces where appropriate.

After Lin Daxin got the loss report of the Free Corps Air Force and the Army, he immediately ordered Meng Wei, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Air Force, to make the Air Force prepare to launch a counterattack against the United Nations forces in the second half of the night, and try to send as many fighters as possible to join the counterattack, focusing on the American aircraft carriers and British aircraft carriers in the waters near the port of the Subic Naval Base, as well as the airfield of the United Nations forces on Fuga Island.

After the sinking of the British Navy's aircraft carrier Prince of Wales, another British Navy aircraft carrier, the Queen Elizabeth, with the remnants of two aircraft carrier formations, withdrew to the waters near the port of Subic Naval Base and joined with seven US Navy aircraft carriers.

At present, only the warships of the U.S. Navy and the British Navy, the warships of the United Nations forces sent by other countries, and some warships of the U.S. Navy are scattered in the waters around Luzon and continue to carry out the task of blockading Luzon Island.

At the same time, Lin Daxin discussed with Wu Qida, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Army, and prepared to mobilize two infantry brigades and two armored tank regiments of the Free Corps Army from the San Juan Town area and the Denkel Town area, and take advantage of the opportunity of the air force's counterattack to launch a ground attack on the United Nations forces in the south.

Just when the commanders of the 10 countries of the United Nations forces were frowning in the conference room, they received another bad news: from the radars of the United Nations forces, it was found that a large number of warplanes were taking off and assembling at the three Huaxinghui air force airfields inside and outside the city of Laoag.

George Abiza, the commander-in-chief of the United Nations forces, immediately ordered urgently: "Immediately notify the Navy's aircraft carrier group and the airfield on Fuga Island, all fighters will take off to meet the enemy, and in addition, notify the ground forces of various countries to beware of the night attack of the Huaxing Air Force!" ”

William Fadel, commander of the British Expeditionary Force, followed and said: "We must let the ground forces of various countries strengthen their air defense, and the air force of the Huaxing Society has already shown its strong strength during the day!" It is also necessary to guard against the army of the Huaxing Association and take the opportunity to launch an attack on our ground forces, and we must not be careless at this time! ”

Immediately, the commanders of the 10 countries ended the meeting and immediately rushed back to the stations of their respective army units to direct the troops to prepare to resist the attack of the Huaxing Society.

At around 1:30 a.m. on 27 September, the air power of the Free Corps Air Force and the United Nations forces began to compete again, and the battlefield was mainly concentrated in the waters near the harbor of Subic Naval Base and over the island of Fuga.

The intensity of the air battle was no worse than that of the daytime, and even more tragic, and there were quite a few fighters of the Free Corps Air Force that carried out suicide attacks on the warships of the US Navy and the British Navy, and those fighters of the Free Corps Air Force that attacked each other were basically J-7 fighters and J-8 fighters.

According to the battle plan of Meng Wei, commander-in-chief of the Free Corps Air Force, it is best to get rid of this big threat north of Luzon, and for this reason, the eight B-2 stealth strategic bombers owned by the Free Corps Air Force were all sent to Fuga Island.

Immediately after the air battle between the two warplanes began, two infantry brigades and two armored tank regiments of the Freikorps Army launched a lightning attack from the San Juan and Denkel areas to the United Nations forces to the south.

Because the fighters of the United Nations Air Force are pinned down by the fighters of the Free Corps Air Force, the United Nations ground forces only have their own helicopters to provide air support at this time, but the infantry brigade of the Free Corps Army also has many helicopters, so after the Free Corps Army launched an attack, the helicopters of the two sides also had a duel between helicopters in the air.

The Freikorps Army has only one infantry brigade in each direction of attack, so the number of helicopters is much smaller than that of the attacking United Nations troops, but the precise shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles launched by the officers and men of the Biochemical Army make up for the lack of helicopters.

Not only the launch of shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles, the strong individual combat skills and tactical coordination ability of the officers and men of the Biochemical Army, after the attack began, were fully revealed, every officer and soldier of the Biochemical Army was a sharpshooter, and the gun headshot was not a legend, in the face of such a strong enemy, many United Nations ground troops were defeated by the attack forces of the Free Corps Army, and the battle line continued to move south.

At around 7 a.m. on 27 September, the commanders of the United Nations forces, who had not slept all night, regathered in the conference room at the Subic Naval Base of the United States, and this time 20 commanders from 21 countries arrived, except for the highest-ranking lieutenant colonel of the New Zealand Dispatch Army.

George Abiza, the commander-in-chief of the United Nations forces, said to the commanders of other countries with a heavy face and a hoarse voice: "Huaxinghui's offensive last night lasted until 2 hours ago, and Huaxinghui's counterattack this time has caused very large losses to our United Nations troops, including our United States, navy, land and air force, and it has even been confirmed that none of the 212 people who joined the United Nations forces in New Zealand withdrew to San Fernando, and basically the entire army was wiped out." ”

George Abiza, who had not slept all night, looked extremely haggard at the moment, and in addition to the lack of sleep, the heavy losses of the American army were the main reason why George Abiza was so haggard.

Yesterday, when the United Nations forces took the initiative to attack, the losses of the American army were not mentioned for the time being, and in the just-concluded Huaxing counterattack, the losses of the American army, described as heavy in two words, were a little insignificant, and it was really too miserable.

When intercepting the Freihp Air Force fighters, the US Navy lost more than 100 carrier-based aircraft, but at such a great cost, it still did not completely block the Freikorps Air Force fighters.

One more aircraft carrier of the US Navy was sunk by Freikorps fighters, this time the Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Bush, and the Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Intrepid was also seriously damaged, and several other US Navy aircraft carriers were more or less injured.

In the waters near the port of Subic Naval Base, one missile destroyer and two missile frigates of the US Navy were also sunk, and in addition to the aircraft carrier, many warships were damaged.

What made George Abizza even more angry was the temporary airfield built by the United Nations forces on Fuga Island, which suffered heavy losses in the counterattack of the Free Corps Air Force, with 6 of the 8 airstrips blown up, and the US fighters deployed at the Fuga Island airfield also suffered heavy losses, with more than 100 fighters either destroyed in air battles or blown up on the tarmac.

In order to completely eliminate Huaxinghui this time, the US military and the air force mobilized a total of 690 fighters, but how long has it been, the number of US fighters, counting the remnants of carrier-based aircraft and fighters at the airport on Fuga Island, there are only 8 F-22 Raptor fighters, 6 F-35A fighters, 68 F-35C Lightning fighters, 39 A-10B Intruder fighters, 98 FA-18 Super Hornet fighters, 9 F-15 fighters, 14 F-16 fighters and 7 AV-8B Harrier attack aircraft, all of which add up to only 249 units.

If the losses of the US Navy and Air Force made George Abiza feel broken, then the counterattack of the Freikorps Army made George Abiza feel desperate.

Although the Freikorps Army sent a counterattack force from the San Juan Town area is not much, but it has brought heavy casualties to the U.S. Army, only about 3 and a half hours of fighting, the U.S. Army killed and missing more than 10,000 people, the number of wounded is not less than this number, the U.S. Army and the Philippine Government Army, which were originally close to the San Juan Town area, as well as a few other countries to cooperate with the troops, have now been driven to San Fernando by the Freiko Army counterattack force, a large number of U.S. Army weapons and equipment, All were lost on the way to retreat, and the losses of Philippine government personnel even exceeded those of the US Army.

William Fadel, commander of the British Expeditionary Force, said to George Abiza in a lamenting voice: "It's miserable! It's so miserable! Huaxing will only counterattack, bring such a big loss to our entire United Nations forces, especially our air force, I don't think that our United Nations forces will still have the strength to attack Huaxing in the future, unless countries send a large number of more fighters to the United Nations forces! ”

Although the British Navy's aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth did not suffer heavy damage, there were only 10 F-35B fighters and 1 AWACS aircraft left on the carrier-based aircraft, and there were still 6 anti-submarine helicopters, but they did not play any role in the struggle for air supremacy.

The British Air Force also had only 7 Typhoon fighters left at the Fuga Island airfield, the British Navy sank 1 missile frigate, and the British Army was also beaten by the Free Corps Army all the way back to Luzon City, with nearly 10,000 casualties, and a large number of heavy weapons were captured by the Free Corps Army during the retreat.

In addition to the surviving fighters of the United States and Britain at the airport on the island of Fuga, the French Air Force also survived 6 Mirage 2000 fighters, the Luftwaffe also survived 8 Typhoon fighters, the Israeli Air Force also survived 2 F-35A fighters, 6 F-15 fighters and 7 F-16 fighters, and the Denisaean Air Force also had only 1 KFX fighter left without turning into a pile of scrap metal.

In the counterattack of the Free Corps Army, the two divisions of the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force suffered nearly 5,000 casualties, the Australian Expeditionary Force suffered about 2,800 casualties, the Malaysian Army suffered nearly 2,500 casualties, and the Indonesian Army suffered more than 3,000 casualties.
