Chapter 265: Ground-Air Battle (5)

There are very few air forces in China, and in fact, there are not many Japan, which is short of materials, but compared with China, Japan is of course a strong country, after all, they can produce and manufacture it themselves, if all the industries are started, the output is really a lot, but for Japan, aircraft can not be consumed excessively, and they cannot afford to consume it.

The loss of more than a dozen bombers is not a small loss for the 21 st Flying Group, because the road escort team has air defense weapons, and the Japanese side has not sent planes to bomb again, and it is difficult to calculate where the Chinese transport convoy is at such a long distance.

In the era when there was no electronic navigation, it was very difficult for planes to find locations and bomb targets, and it was necessary to have ground references, and the Japanese bomber brigades often had times when they could not find the target and returned empty, and there were also times when they bombed the wrong ones. It turned out that the transportation from Longzhou to De'an was a night operation, resting during the day, and it was also slow, and it was a fixed route, so it was easy for Japanese planes to find the target. Even then, most of them bombed roads and bridges, blocking the transportation of convoys. But now they suddenly increased their air defense forces, so that Ai Ishikawa did not rashly send planes to bomb again.

It's useless for Ando Jili to scold Ai Ishikawa, whether it is the Snow Fox or other Chinese troops, anti-aircraft anti-aircraft artillery is limited, basically to protect important facilities and sites, and the troops basically have no anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns, so the unsuspecting bomber squadron has suffered such a large loss.

That is to say, it is not to blame Ishikawa Aidasa, through the Chinese dispatch army headquarters to add supplementary aircraft to the 21st Flying Group, for the bombing of the areas from Longzhou to Dean, after all, the military attack on Longzhou, Ando Jili did not dare, he was facing not only the New Ninth Army, but also the national army troops that were being transferred from around.

The Kunlun Pass was lost again, and the Chinese Fifth Army was also quite strong, forcing the Japanese army to retreat to Nanning, losing the Kunlun Pass, and at the same time the troops suffered heavy casualties and urgently needed to be replenished. The Chinese Dispatch Army transferred the 18th Division and the Guards Independent Mixed Brigade in Guangzhou to the command of the 21st Army, strengthened the protection of the area west and south of Nanning, captured Longzhou, and cut off the road from Vietnam to Nanning, mainly the Langshan Highway at Zhennanguan.

According to the report of the reconnaissance plane, a large number of supplies entered Haiphong Port, and then entered Long Chau through the Lang Son Highway, which is French territory, and Japan has no control over Vietnam, so it can only strengthen the Chinese side to intercept and blockade. The failure of the air force bombing made Ishikawa Ai dare not bomb the convoy again, and he knew from the intelligence in the secret service that the Snow Fox Road Guard Team was subordinate to the North Vietnamese Autonomous Government, not a Chinese army, and their predecessor was the Snow Fox Corps.

The Japanese military was very angry that the French were shielding the snow fox, and the base camp was actively preparing to attack Southeast Asia, and the Japanese army also remembered their hatred, preparing that once the war started, the French would never be spared.

However, the Japanese side did not know the situation, and only knew that the snow fox in northern Vietnam was connected with the Chinese snow fox, but there was no evidence, so it could not negotiate with the French governor Cadol. For various reasons, Ai Ishikawa changed his tactics and no longer attacked the convoy, but sent bombers to bomb the main section of the Longdeok Highway, using heavy *.

At this time, Hu Wansong was no longer fighting against the surrounding bandit cottages, nor was he hiding from the Japanese planes, but he showed his unreasonable style and forced Longzhou to go to the cottage county government and local security regiments around De'an to contribute money, food, and people to build roads.

From the battle between the airplanes and the ground air defense forces, it evolved into the Japanese bombing and Hu Wansong's road construction, and the question of who was faster than whom was staged on the Longde Highway, with hundreds or even thousands of migrant workers building roads every day.

Wang Hai's air defense battalion followed the convoy to protect the convoy, so that the Japanese planes did not dare to bomb the convoy, and Wang Hai had no way to destroy the road, he only had 30 anti-aircraft machine guns, which could not be protected at a distance of thousands of miles, and could only protect the convoy.

In this way, after the Japanese army's front foot was blown up, Hu Wansong's back foot was repaired, and the convoy moved forward through the repaired road. Every day such a game is staged on the Longde Highway, but no one can do it, after all, the plane cannot get down, and the air defense battalion of the road escort team cannot go to the sky.

Ai Ishikawa's headquarters is in Qinzhou City, and eight or nine kilometers away from Qinzhou City is Qinzhou Airport, where there was no airport, only a postal plane landing point. After the Japanese army occupied Qinzhou, it was expanded and built into a military airfield. The airport is very simple, only a small two-story building is not big, surrounded by tents and some temporary huts, only the control tower and the small building can see a little bit of the airport.

Because of its proximity to Qinzhou, the Japanese airfield had not been attacked, and the number of troops was too small, and the insufficient Japanese army only had a guard brigade of more than 700 people at the airfield, plus ground staff and personnel from the repair plant, and there were more than 1,000 people at the entire airport. Because there was no time to get it, large quantities of oil, supplies and ammunition were piled up on the flat ground and covered with tarpaulins.

There were no hangars, so the planes were parked on the tarmac, lined up in formation, and the airport was only fenced with barbed wire, with several guard posts and some mobile posts on all sides, all of which were just to prevent the surrounding people from entering, not just to protect the airport.

Although there are not many, China has an air force after all, and there is a squadron of anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns on the airfield, which is used for air defense. Nanning Airport was not attacked, and Qinzhou Airport was even more fine. In addition, there is a naval fleet in Qinzhou Bay, and seaplanes can also support operations.

Defending the airport was the commander of the garrison brigade, Toshio Miura, who was an army officer, because Japan did not have an independent air force, it was an army aviation force, so Toshio Miura was also the commander of the Qinzhou airfield, and more than a dozen planes were transferred from the direction of Guangzhou to supplement the 21st Flying Group, and the five squadrons had a total of more than 70 aircraft.

The number is larger than that of Nanning Airport, reconnaissance planes and fighters are all at Nanning Airport, and the three bomber squadrons are all in Qinzhou, and the role of Japanese planes is to blow up China's communication lines, so they constantly take off and land every day to bomb the Longde Highway.

On a high slope in Qingshan Ridge, Jin Mingtan, the leader of the third squadron, held a telescope and looked at the Japanese airfield in the distance, where several planes were landing in a roar, and he was waiting for the intelligence officers to reconnoitre.

The members of the "report" reconnaissance team returned: "Captain Jin, the Japanese army has a garrison group of more than 700 people, the air force can have more than 100 people, plus pilots and ground crews, Qinzhou Airport can have more than 1,000 people, and the combat effectiveness is not strong. ”

Jin Mingtan nodded and asked, "What's the situation in the direction of Qinzhou?" ”

The scout said: "The Japanese Guards Independent Mixed Brigade is in Qinzhou, with a total of five brigades of more than 7,000 troops, and it is only eight or nine kilometers away from the airport, and the Japanese army can reach it in half an hour. ”

Jin Mingtan called over the deputy squadron leader Ma Biao and said: "We only have a squadron of 200 people, and the devils are about 1,000 people, and the Japanese troops in Qinzhou can arrive in half an hour, so we only have half an hour." ”

Ma Biao said: "We entered in makeup, although there are more than 1,000 devils, but there is only that garrison brigade in the combat arms, and one of the squadrons is an anti-aircraft artillery squadron, it should be no problem, half an hour is enough." ”

Jin Mingtan shook his head: "The Japanese army has made the airport very big, and even if we go in and run back and forth, it will not be installed in half an hour*, and if we don't get it, we may be surrounded by devils." ”

Ma Biao smiled: "Encircled, we are a special combat team, afraid of devils?" ”

Jin Mingtan said: "We are not here to fight devils, we are still captains, and we don't even know the purpose of the battle, I think you have studied in vain." ”

Ma Biao stuck out his tongue, of course the special combat team is on a special mission, and fighting devils is the business of other troops, this operation is of course an airport, Ma Biao, who no longer dares to go crazy, said: "The Japanese army has thirty or forty planes, and it is really too late to blow up all of them, but it is okay to blow up some of them." ”

Jin Mingtan said: "This time the devil is defenseless, once he is attacked, he will strengthen his defense, and it will not be easy to succeed again, so this time we must maximize the results." ”

Ma Biao raised the binoculars and looked at it for a while and said, "I have a way." ”

Jin Mingtan asked, "Say it quickly, don't sell it." ”

Ma Biao said: "You see there are cars, there are anti-aircraft machine guns, if we get a car and get the machine guns up, it will be much faster, and it should be no problem to use anti-aircraft machine guns to fight planes, right?" ”

Jin Mingtan didn't have any good way, the special combat team was not a hard-fought force, and he cared more about casualties, so he was thinking about how to destroy the Japanese airfield and how to retreat. He thought for a while and said: "Change into Japanese military clothes, enter the airport openly, and if you can't get inside, you will act openly and forcibly blow it up, and destroy as much as you can." ”

Wan Yonghui wanted to lead the team in person, but Ouyang Sari agreed, so he had to send the most trusted Jin Mingtan to lead the team, he was the squadron leader, so of course he decided to come down. The 200 people quickly changed into Japanese military costumes, which was an operation to enter the Japanese occupied area, and this suit was of course a must-have, and it was hard to distinguish between the real and the fake.

A group of Japanese soldiers came out of the woods and swaggered in the direction of the airport, and Kim spoke Japanese very well, because this guy was Korean and spoke Japanese quite well.

He is wearing a military uniform of Nakasa, Ma Biao is just a sergeant's uniform, these people happen to be the strength of a squadron, the captain on duty at the airport, Toshio Miura, Nakasa received a report from the soldiers, there is a group of imperial troops asking to inspect the airport, and the attitude is arrogant.

When Toshio Miura saw that it was a Nakasa, he was very unhappy, he was also a Nakasa, and after reading Jin Mingtan's documents, he was a little puzzled, and he came to check what airfield for no reason, and he also came to check the strength of a squadron. But why didn't this Nakasa say it, nor did he take out an order from the military department, but only said that according to the intelligence, the Shina Army was going to attack the airport, and they were ordered to inspect the defense.

Toshio Miura didn't know if it was true or not, these had to be verified with the headquarters, and besides, Jin Mingtan didn't give Toshio Miura a chance at all, so he pushed him away with a cold face and led the team into the airport. In this case, Toshio Miura did not dare to give the order to shoot, so he had to quickly return to the command tower and contact the 21st Army by phone, and he did not know why the troops came to inspect it.

He was busy calling to verify his identity, and Jin Mingtan ordered his squadron to approach the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position, and at the same time, several team members with * on their bodies also walked towards the tarmac plane. The ordinary soldiers at the airport didn't know what was going on, the captain and commander didn't stop it, and of course no one else could stop it. Jin Mingtan said that they brazenly got a car in this way, instructed the soldiers to load an anti-aircraft cannon into the car, and loaded several boxes of ammunition on the car.

Ma Biao and they are like returning to their own home, Jin Mingtan stared at those devil soldiers with his sword with his eyes, and whoever asked was a gossip, so frightened that the Japanese squad leader and squadron leader didn't dare to ask why, watching them load the machine gun into the car, where was this going to be transported.

Just as he was loading the bullet into the car, Toshio Miura, who was in the distance, ran out and shouted: "Pull the alarm, they have a problem, eliminate it." But he was a little too anxious, how could such an order rely on shouting, the airfield was so big that he couldn't hear it.

The angry Toshio Miura came back to his senses, raised his gun and fired three shots into the sky and shouted: "The garrison brigade assembles and destroys those fake imperial troops." ”

He asked the headquarters of the 21st Army if there was an inspection of the airfield troops, and the staff of the 21st Army was stunned, there was nothing at all. Jin Mingtan said that they were sent by the military department, and the military department didn't know at all, and they didn't need to think about it to know that these imperial troops were fake. This surprised and frightened him, and he couldn't be sure of their identities at the time, so he let them all in.

However, Toshio Miura was not too afraid, there was only one squadron of about 200 people who came in, and he had about 1,000 people, and he could destroy them by concentrating his forces. The sound of gunfire was an order, and the Japanese woke up in shock, but the soldiers still didn't know what was going on.

Jin Mingtan understood that the Japanese army had found out, and shouted: "Start moving." As he spoke, he shot at the Japanese with the gun in his hand. At such a close distance, when the devil was still a little dazed and didn't know what was going on, the special combat team made the first move. In order to pretend to be a Japanese soldier, the special combat team had Japanese rifles in their hands, which had limited power and did not kill many devils.

The reaction was very fast, and Wan Jinming shouted: "Ma Biao, stick to the anti-aircraft artillery position to block the devils, the first squad strikes the aircraft, the second squad covers, and the third squad blasts." ”

The four squads of the third squadron of the special combat team immediately separated, and the car rushed towards the plane on the tarmac under the protection of the soldiers, and Lin Feng, who was in the car, shouted: "Liang Wu, you slow down, Lao Tzu can't aim accurately." ”

As the car drove towards the tarmac, the Type 96 heavy machine gun on it spat out a burst of fire, and the bullets fired at the planes. This time, the entire Qinzhou airport was in chaos, and the special combat team was talking about the ability of individual soldiers, and at this time, they could give full play to it. Although the Japanese army was numerous, it could not stop the "bombardment" When the first plane caught fire and exploded, Toshio Miura reported to the headquarters: "Request reinforcements. ”
