Chapter Sixty-Nine: This battle can't be fought anyway, so let's withdraw
During the night, personnel on both sides were counting casualties.
Both sides of the battle were inexplicable, and in the end, the personnel on both sides fought separately.
Fortunately, everyone in Fan Bufan's army has a walkie-talkie and can be contacted at any time.
The little devil was miserable, and in the end, he finally relied on the hand-cranked air raid siren to finally gather the personnel before retreating.
As a result, the captains of each brigade looked at the less than half of the troops and wanted to cry without tears, and the other side of the battle lost half of their manpower without knowing who they were, and how to fight later.
Fan Bufan's side is also having a hard time, not to mention the heavy losses, anyway, he has lost a lot, the key is that this battle is too painful.
In the end, the two sides counted that Fan Bufan's troops had more than 200 dead and wounded, plus more than a dozen armored vehicles.
Well, Zhao Er and Fan Bufan felt that the casualties were much less than their previous first battle, this time they were at least 1:10 in a ratio, and the other party was at least wiped out by them more than a thousand people.
Fan Bufan and Zhao Er didn't know that the little devil was much worse than they imagined, and a brigade was lost.
You know, this time, nearly three divisions are facing more than 4,000 of them.
These are all fully staffed A divisions, with nearly 30,000 people in one division. Basically, Fan Bufan's troops had to fight about 20 people per person.
The luck of Fan Bufan's troops this time was that the other party did not send all the personnel to the battlefield at one time, otherwise, the little devils would kill them with their numbers.
Once the battle is white-knuckled, Fan Bufan's side is estimated to suffer heavy losses.
Another point is that because both sides are stuck together, the other party cannot call in artillery to attack Fan Bufan's troops.
Therefore, Fan Bufan and Zhao Er are still very happy.
However, thinking of the artillery, Zhao Er worriedly said to Fan Bufan on the phone: "Your Majesty, now that the two sides have separated, if the other party jumps over the wall and launches artillery to attack us, we will suffer heavy losses." ”
Fan Bufan replied: "I also understand this, I have already asked the attack aircraft squadron to find and destroy the opponent's artillery position, and there should be good news soon." ”
Fan Bufan thought for a while and said: "The current situation is out of our plan, I think we should take advantage of the fact that the little devils haven't reacted yet, let's quickly transfer the manpower, after all, our other plan this time is to recruit manpower." ”
Zhao Er also felt that it should be so, so he said: "Your Majesty, I also agree to this, we have no reserve troops now, we must take advantage of the fact that the little devil is not clear about our strength now, and quickly recruit people to evacuate, and we will come back to take revenge in the future." ”
Fan Bufan and Zhao Er hit it off and immediately started to act. However, the soldiers are exhausted and can only wait for tomorrow to start the operation.
On the other side, Chen Qi, the squadron leader of the attack aircraft squadron, was leading his squadron to search for the artillery positions of the little devils, and the other party was attacking Jinling City anyway.
There was silence on the squadron's radio station, and everyone was searching for clues.
Soon, Chen Qi's wingman found out something.
Captain, at three o'clock, you can see a figure shaking through the night vision device, which seems to be the artillery position of the little devils.
When Chen Qi heard this, he looked in the direction of three o'clock, and sure enough, he could vaguely see the figure and the outline of the cannon.
Chen Qi immediately ordered: "No. 3, throw the auxiliary fuel tank at the target, and let's light a fire to see if they are or not." ”
Hearing this, the No. 3 plane responded: "Don't worry, captain, I'll take care of it." ”
After saying that, the No. 3 plane broke away from the aircraft formation, flew towards the target, and then threw the auxiliary fuel tank through the calculated throwing position of the aircraft's built-in computer.
The artillery wings of the three divisions, which were busy, were killed by the sudden flying auxiliary fuel tank.
One of the artillery wing commanders asked at the smell of gasoline in the air, his face changed greatly, and he shouted: "Air attack, quickly turn on the searchlights and set up an air defense network." ”
The soldiers immediately turned on their searchlights, and before they could open fire, they saw a plane rushing towards them.
They immediately scrambled to reload the anti-aircraft guns, and before they could fire, the plane fired first.
A 7.92 mm tracer bullet from the nose of the aircraft to indicate direction ignited the drop fuel tank that had been thrown earlier.
With a bang, the fire lit up the entire dark sky.
Chen Qi and the others have thoroughly seen the situation below through this fire.
Chen Qi's wingman was surprised: "Captain, the little devils seem to have gathered all the artillery units together, what are they trying to do?" ”
Chen Qi thought for a while and said: "They are bullying the Chinese army in this world, there are no aircraft and artillery, everything is like this." Normally, artillery positions should not be set up together to prevent being put in one pot. ”
The wingman said excitedly: "It's just cheaper for us, those guys from the fighter team, with the advantage of the plane during the day, they won 1 to 3 one by one, and now they look like they are all screaming, I will be angry when I see it, and we can draw stars on the plane after this fight." ”
Chen Qi understood what the wingman meant, and those guys in the fighter squadron relied on the radar to sneak attack a group of Zero fighters of the little devils.
Originally, the performance of the aircraft was better than theirs, and with the help of radar and electronic equipment, a group of rookies actually gained something in the case that the number was not dominant, and to be honest, Chen Qi was quite envious of them.
Chen Qi said on the radio: "Since we envy others, then let's do something too, and now we will start assigning targets." Two people in a team, we attacked from 6 directions at the same time, and finally gave them a center to blossom. ”
The attack pilots replied over the radio: "Understand, Captain, hit him in the center." ”
After saying that, they began to attack from different directions according to their detachments during training.
Chen Qi didn't want to miss this good show, and took his wingman to participate in the attack, they were not afraid of the little devils' planes attacking them at all, if they could also be dispatched at night, then they would admit it.
At the same time, the command of the devils received an attack on the artillery positions by the aircraft of the Chinese troops.
The supreme commander of the command, General Matsui Ishone, said angrily: "You fools, you haven't even figured out what kind of troops the other party is, and now our artillery position is still being raided, what are you all doing to eat, you all commit suicide by seppuku." ”
The staff officers under Matsui Ishine lowered their heads one by one, not daring to look at the furious Matsui Ishine.
After calming down for a moment, Matsui Ishone ordered: "Immediately send Zero fighters to disperse the bombing forces and protect our artillery positions, and additionally send ground air defense units to station artillery positions." ”
After listening to the order, the adjutant said in embarrassment: "Your Excellency General, it is already night, and our fighters do not have the ability to fly at night at all, so we can only send ground troops to support." ”
Matsui Shigen heard this, and was furious again: "Bastard, when the ground forces arrive, our artillery units will be exhausted, send me fighters immediately." ”
The adjutant had no choice but to go and issue orders.
The commander of the fighter unit looked at the order issued by the command, and a stream of blood welled up in his head, and during the day they were already miserable.
Now they are still allowed to go out at night, which is basically killing them.
However, since the command has already issued an order, if it is not obeyed, it will be disobedience and will be court-martialed.
There was no way, the fighter commander, but to symbolically send a squadron of Zero fighters to disperse the enemy bombing force.
As soon as the Zero fighter took to the air, it was discovered by the airship command center.
Zhao Er was very strange, when did the little devil's fighter have the ability to fight at night. Although it was very strange, Zhao Er still notified Chen Qi and told them to evacuate quickly.
Chen Qi soon received a warning from the headquarters, so he said on the radio: "Young men, the devil's plane is coming, let's hurry up." ”
All the pilots of the attack aircraft listened and immediately accelerated the speed of the attack. Soon they emptied all the rockets, leaving only the reserved ammunition for the nose machine gun.
Chen Qi looked at the artillery position that had turned into a sea of fire, and after gathering everyone, he began to retreat.
At this time, the Zero fighters of the little devils flew along the firelight, but because of the sky, they did not notice the squadron of attack aircraft that had been pulled above them.
Chen Qi looked at the little devil plane flying over at cruising speed, it was a little strange, they were on the heads of the little devils, and the little devils didn't notice it at all.
His heart moved, and he said on the radio: "Boys, do you want to do a vote?" ”
Everyone was very surprised when they heard the squadron leader's words, and the wingman asked, "Captain, what are you doing, we only have machine gun bullets left now." ”
Chen Qi said: "You look at the little devil fighters below us, we are above them, they didn't find it, it means that they don't have the ability to fight at night at all, and I have also read the information, the fighter can fly at night for at least seven or eight years, so I think they should have been ordered to come over from above, and they are only going to go back after a formality, so we might as well do him." ”
When the other attack aircraft pilots heard this, they were excited and agreed, and then under the command of Chen Qi, they began to sneak attack the little devils below them.
On the other side, the display screen of the airship command center showed the battlefield projected through optical equipment, and Zhao Er contacted Fan Bufan.
Zhao Er said: "Your Majesty, the artillery of the little devils has ended, we can rest assured for a while, and now that we can't continue this war, I think we should start withdrawing with manpower." ”
Fan Bufan flew in the sky and looked at the sea of fire in the suburbs, and said: "I think so too, while the little devils are temporarily scared by us, we quickly evacuate with manpower, and I will go back to inform Prime Minister Su and let him get ready to accept refugees." The army rested for the night today, and tomorrow we will start to evacuate with personnel, and the supplies in the logistics center will be all the ammunition and all the food will be left for the residents, and if anyone refuses to leave, I will hold them at gunpoint and leave. ”
Zhao Er listened and said, "I understand Your Majesty, I will arrange it." ”
After breaking off contact, Fan Bufan left, and then returned to the other world through the gate of time and space to find Su Hongguang.
