Chapter 293: A worrying situation
"Ding...... The main character was detected: Zhang Milong, who was wanted by Chen Dayuan for shooting and killing an air defense officer who escaped from the battle, and Long Wenwen asked for help everywhere to no avail, and finally shot him with his own hands.
Now it has successfully changed its fate due to the host, completion: excellent.
Earn 5,000 points, which belongs to 62239 points.
Unlock the American-made M1 40mm anti-aircraft gun, which is based on the Swedish Bofors 40 anti-aircraft gun to imitate and improve, with simple structure, compact, reliable mechanical action, low failure rate, fast transition between marching state and combat state.
The total weight of the gun is 2.6 tons, and the combat type needs to be operated by 6 people with the base unfolded, with a maximum firing range of 4,700 meters, a high and low firing range of minus 11 degrees to positive 90 degrees, and a directional firing range of 360 degrees.
It can be fired flat and direct, with 20 rounds of magazine feeding, the actual rate of fire is 60 rounds per minute, it can be retrofitted on a half-track armored vehicle, the exchange price is 350, and the report is complete. ”
After solving the matter of the lost dragon, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in Liao Mingyu's mind.
The Bofors 40 anti-aircraft gun is a good anti-aircraft weapon, which can just add to the weak air defense of the troops.
To tell the truth, this Japanese air raid also caused a great shock to Liao Mingyu, and now the third division has developed well in all aspects, but it lacks effective air defense weapons, and the whole division has an anti-aircraft artillery battalion.
It is said that it is an anti-aircraft artillery battalion, but it uses anti-aircraft machine guns modified from M2 heavy machine guns, and there are no large-caliber anti-aircraft guns at all.
If the third division was attacked by the Japanese army with a large-scale air attack, then they would not be able to fight back at all, and it would be difficult to form an anti-aircraft fire network with 12.7 caliber machine guns alone.
This incident also made Liao Mingyu realize that before there is no air force of his own, the air defense forces must do a good job, and the consequences of losing air supremacy do not need to be said, let alone relying on the Americans.
"Redeem me for 16 Bofors guns."
Liao Mingyu decided to put up the shelves of the air defense battalion first, with these 16 40mm anti-aircraft guns, and with a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns, it was completely enough to deal with the air attack of the little devils.
The key is that anti-aircraft guns can also shoot flat, and the thin-skinned Type 97 that hits the little devils can't be accurate with one shot? This is much faster than the rate of fire of the 37 anti-aircraft gun, and it can also be installed on armored vehicles, and the Japanese must not cry to death when they see it?
"Ding... The redemption was successful, with a total cost of 5,600 points and a remaining score of 56,639. ”
Well, with this anti-aircraft gun, Li Jie's kid is afraid that he will wake up laughing when he falls asleep, Liao Mingyu smiled and got in the car and prepared to go home, waiting for the good news that Zhang Liu brought him back.
……
This bombing by the Japanese inflicted great losses on the part of the expeditionary force.
The 6th and 8th armies, which bore the brunt of the bombing, were killed and wounded more than 6,000 people, and more than 50 taels of truckloads and countless military supplies were destroyed.
Wei Lihuang was extremely angry, and severely reprimanded Song Xilian, Huang Jie, and Li Mi, the acting commander of the 8th Army, and others.
But it is useless to blame the fact that the matter has already happened, the Japanese have calculated or not, and coupled with the laxity and carelessness of the two armies, it is understandable that there will be such a result.
However, the all-out general offensive originally scheduled for August 28 was greatly affected, because the task of the 8th Army was to cooperate with the 71st Army to take Gaoligong Mountain, while the 6th Army was supposed to bypass Gaoligong Mountain and advance west along the Yunnan-Burma Highway and launch an attack on Tengchong from south to north from the direction of Longling.
However, the withdrawal of these two forces made the offensive side very passive, first of all, the troops that attacked Gaoligong Mountain were left with only Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army, and secondly, there was a lack of a containment force to the south of Tengchong, and there were serious loopholes in the original plan of besieging on three sides.
Tengchong's defenders will even threaten the northern part of Longling, and it is very likely that Liao Mingyu and them will be flanked from both sides when they face the attack of the 18th Division, breaking the total blockade of the expeditionary force.
Wei Lihuang was furious, regardless of the dissuasion of the generals, he directly set up the headquarters in Chanda, and personally dispatched the front-line troops, in order to ensure the safety of the commander-in-chief, Liao Mingyu and they were busy and crazy.
The Yankees are also aware of the seriousness of this incident, strictly speaking, they are also partly responsible for the Japanese air raid, who made this group of people swear that the Japanese could not call the shots in the sky of western Yunnan, but this time they were slapped in the face.
For this reason, Chennault also asked the 14th Air Group of the U.S. Army to retaliate, and also carried out an air raid on Tengchong.
It's just that the cunning little Japan could not have thought of this stubble, and under the tight defense, the Yankees not only did not take advantage, but lost a lot of air power.
The Americans, who had lost face again, quit and looked for trouble with little Japan every day as if they were crazy.
During this time, the warplanes of both sides fought wantonly in the sky, losing each other, and one or two downed planes were dragging black smoke and smashing to the ground every day.
Wei Lihuang didn't object to this, let these Yankees toss, anyway, they can cause some losses to the little devils, why not?
However, there is one piece of news in the past two days that makes people a little confused, that is, Director Chen of the Political Training Office of the 11th Group Army suddenly disappeared.
According to the report, on the 21st, the day the Japanese bombed Chanda, Director Chen hurried over for some reason, but the person did not appear in Chanda, but there was no news at all, and the relevant personnel disappeared without a trace.
The Investigation Bureau immediately began to investigate the matter thoroughly, but within a few days of investigation, the investigators in charge of the matter received a message from the upper peak to stop, but the reason was not explained, which had to make people think about it......
Director Chen's cronies and others refused to give up, and the people from the Investigation Bureau went to Song Xilian if they didn't care, and Song Xilian didn't care about it, so they went to Wei Lihuang.
And Commander-in-Chief Wei has two big heads at this time, fuck, it's too late to fight, how can he have this kung fu to help them find someone? After blasting them away in a few words, he didn't care about it anymore.
On the other hand, Wei Lihuang also had to readjust the battle plan, and the 20th Army attacking Tengchong in the north remained unchanged, while the task of attacking Gaoligong Mountain was left to the 2nd Army, which could not reach western Yunnan until the end of the month.
However, Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army was arranged to the north of Longling, and their task was not to attack, but to block the north of Longling and strictly prevent Tengchong from attacking Longling on both sides to the south, and secondly, to provide support for the Honorary Third Division at any time.
The main forces attacking Tengchong were mainly the 20th Army, and almost all of them had become auxiliaries, but the offensive plan of the 28th could only be postponed until September 5, not only to wait for the arrival of the 2nd Army, but also to take time for the new material deployment.
For such a change, Liao Mingyu is somewhat bottomless in his heart, the steepness of Gaoligong Mountain is as steep as Nantianmen, although the 2nd Army is a bald descendant army, and its combat effectiveness is okay, but it is not easy to take Gaoligong Mountain in a short time.
And Yu Xiaoqing's 71st Army... Although his army nominally has four major units, the 36th Division, the 87th Division, the 88th Division, and the Yu Division, Yu Xiaoqing can really control only the Yu Division, the 87th and 88th Divisions, which were not satisfied with Zhong Bin's formation, and the 36th Division, which has the strongest combat effectiveness, has always been pinched by Song Xilian.
