"Even-bought karma! The Allies are about to make a counter-charge! "Not good, retreat!" "Spread out! Take cover! "Quick, prepare artillery suppression support!" If it was only the counter-charge of the ground forces, the German-Italian forces would not be intimidated at all, and even looked forward to the arrival of this moment, because their ground forces had enough advantages to not be afraid of the Allied field counteroffensive, but afraid that they would have been indecent in the defensive positions to carry out a war of attrition. However, looking at the vast number of combat planes in the sky, the German front-line commanders could not muster the courage to resist at all, and ordered a temporary retreat at the first time.

Airplanes vs. tanks vs. ground forces, it's completely like a father beating a son, without the slightest discussion. At this time, it can only be that the heroes do not suffer immediate losses, and first disperse and open a safe distance. After receiving the order to retreat, several units attacking on the front line retreated like a tide at the first time, without the slightest drag, and were very simple. Well, it's mainly because of this tug-of-war, which has happened several times today, and the front-line offensive troops have long been familiar with such routines.

"These ghosts are going to run away, and the brothers rush up and bite hard!" "Kill! Avenge your brothers! "Don't run away!" "Charge!" Seeing that the enemy troops were retreating regardless of their heads, Long Wenwen, Zhang Milong and other front-line officers and soldiers suddenly became excited, and they all roared angrily and picked up their guns and chased after them. At this time, if you don't beat the water dog, when will you beat the water dog. But it's a pity that the ideal plumps the reality of the skinny.

Although these fleeing enemy troops in front of them fled with their tails between their legs, after all, they were not the kind of defeated and completely defeated, and the front and rear organizations were very rhythmic. As soon as the officers and men of the front line began to pursue, the German troops in the rear "consciously" assumed the role of breaking off the rear and organized defense on the spot to block the pursuit of the Allied forces. The fighter plane is fleeting, and this makes the pursuit effect of the battlefield very limited.

However, they could avoid the first day of the new year, but they couldn't avoid the fifteenth, and the bomber group that came first began to exert its might at this time. "A bunch of dogs, all of them will die for me!" "Blow up these brutes!" "Brothers, I'm here to avenge you!" "Oh, damn devil, go to God!" As soon as they flew into the sky, the bomber allied pilots, who had long been hungry and thirsty, gritted their teeth and threw bombs frantically.

With a sharp scream, one bomb after another rained down, with the endless anger and killing intent of the Allied soldiers, bombarded the Axis troops on the ground who were fleeing at full speed. "God, save us!" The sharp screams of the bombs were like a group of devils from hell, revealing sharp fangs and scarlet tongues, tearing at the nerves of the officers and soldiers of the Axis armies.

Before the shells hit the ground and blossomed, the screaming sound that was almost a life-urging charm frightened the officers and soldiers of the Axis army into disarray, and they only hated their father and mother for missing two legs. "See if I don't blow your tortoise shells!" "A bunch of damn things, don't take your life yet!" "Die to me!" The bomber group in front frantically dropped bombs all the way to the area output, and when they arrived at the ground attack aircraft group, they started to strafe accurately, pouring strings of armor-piercing shells into enemy tanks, armored vehicles, and ground personnel for no money.

Under this wave of fierce pursuit, the Axis forces that were fleeing for their lives paid a heavy price in casualties. One tank after another, armored vehicles were overturned, blown up, and penetrated, and one soldier after another was blown to pieces and smashed into a sieve. For a time, the Axis armies, which had been fully occupied, turned into a group of lambs to the slaughter in an instant, powerless to fight back.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the mass murder in front, more than a dozen helicopters were pulled out of various underground parking airports in Matru Town one after another, and then took off one after another, going to various battlefields to pick up the wounded and return. "Hurry, hurry, move the injured brothers to the helicopter and send them to the hospital for rescue, and the seriously injured brothers will be given priority to the helicopter." "Everyone should be fast, and be more careful!" In a few moments, four helicopters buzzed to the tarmac at the top of the slope.

Meng Yiyi, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly surrounded him and carried the seriously injured onto the helicopter with a roar. Field hospitals are equipped with a large number of helicopters in order to be able to rescue the seriously wounded in a timely manner. Similarly, in order to allow these helicopters to fly to the front line positions to transport the wounded in the first place, a considerable area of platforms has been leveled in the core areas of each position to serve as helipads. This is where the big part comes in.

"Hold on, brothers, you'll be back to the hospital soon!" "When you get to the hospital, you'll be safe!" "Brothers, you must persevere to the end! Persistence is victory! "Ahem, don't worry, we won't give up!" "Ahem, brothers, then we, ahem, ahem, go first." With the concerted efforts of the crowd, dozens of the most seriously injured were quickly lifted onto the helicopter.

Immediately afterwards, four helicopters slowly lifted into the air and flew to the field hospital in Matlu Town, more than 20 kilometers away. "Damn, it's time for us to play, brothers, stop these German devils and let them all come back! Kill! Fighter pilot Liang Taizhen, piloting the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter that had just arrived in the North African theater, rushed to the forefront, and after nearly a few minutes of flight, he finally collided head-on with the German fighter group that came to air support.

The P-47 "Thunderbolt" fighter was one of the main fighters of the U.S. Army Air Force in the middle and late stages of World War II, and was the largest and heaviest single-engine fighter of World War II. The P-47 "Thunderbolt" fighter has a wingspan of 12.7 meters, a length of 10.99 meters, a height of 4.32 meters, a maximum take-off weight of 8,800 kilograms, a maximum flight speed of 690 kilometers per hour, a maximum range of 760 kilometers, a practical ceiling of 12,800 meters, and a 9-minute climb from sea level to 6,100 meters.

Eight Browning 0.5-inch machine guns are installed in the wings, and the underwing bomb racks can carry up to 908 kg of bombs or rocket shells. The fighter has the excellent characteristics of high power, strong firepower and heavy armor, and can provide effective escort for the bomber group that penetrates the defense. In addition to its excellent performance in air combat, the P-47 is also well suited for ground attack missions. There were many improvements and modifications of the P-47, and the final modification was the P-47N, which expanded the wing area, carried a total of 4,380 liters of fuel, increased the combat radius to 1,610 kilometers, and had a maximum empty time of more than 9 hours.

At the same time, the ammunition capacity of the 8 machine guns has been increased to 2136 rounds, and bombs or rockets can also be attached. In this way, the total weight of the aircraft reached 9400 kg, making it the heaviest single-engine fighter of World War II. With twin-engine aircraft size, tonnage and load capacity of a light bomber. Initially, however, the P-47 Thunderbolt was not popular with Allied pilots.

Because they were accustomed to the nimble and agile British "Hurricane" and "Spitfire" fighters, and the Thunderbolt planes were thick and strong, stupid and stupid, and looked very uncomfortable. They gave it the nickname "Big Bottle" based on its shape, believing that it would certainly not be able to beat Dekuang's Messerschmitt Bf-109 fighter, and many people simply refused to modify it. But within half a year, these pilots fell in love with it.

During the battle, they found that although the Thunderbolt was large and not as agile as the Bf-109 fighter, it had strong firepower, thick armor protection, and strong resistance to destruction, and it could not be affected by dozens of bullets. It has good glide and dive performance, as long as it can occupy altitude in air combat, and the dive attack effect on Bf-109 fighters is very good.

After tasting the sweetness, most of the Allied fighter units at that time used the P-47 as the main aircraft, which dealt a heavy blow to the German army. According to statistics, various types of P-47 "Thunderbolt" fighters flew a total of 1.934 million hours and made 546,000 combat sorties in World War II. It fired 135 million rounds of ammunition, 60,000 rockets, dropped 132,000 tons of bombs, and dropped thousands of gallons of napalm bombs.

The ratio of gains and losses in air combat is 4.6 to 1, that is, the loss of one and the defeat of 4.6 aircraft, ranking in the forefront of all types of fighters. Its loss rate of 1,000 sorties was 7, which was also the lowest among all types of fighters. Moreover, the P-47 also created a large number of famous ace pilots and flight teams. The 56th Brigade, which was the first to be equipped with P-47 and used until the end of the war, shot down 674.5 enemy planes in air battles, with a ratio of 8:1 and 38 aces, all of which were the first in Europe and the United States.

In comparison, the 4th team, another ace team, had a record comparable to it, but its losses were almost twice as high. According to expert analysis, this is related to the fact that the brigade switched to the P-51 "Mustang" fighter in the later period, because the vulnerability of the "Mustang" significantly exceeds that of the "Thunderbolt". In the current era, the situation is similar, after the latest batch of P-47 Thunderbolt fighters arrived in the North African theater, not only the Tiger Army pilots were very disgusted, but the British and American Allied pilots were also very disgusted.

However, due to the severe loss of fighter jets before, they now had no choice, and the Allied pilots had to take the initiative to adapt to this new fighter that looked "stupid and stupid". However, in this regard, the Huaxia fighter pilots are much better, because they have already obtained relevant intelligence information before, whether it is psychological factors or specific operational ability, they can adapt much faster.

In just a few days, all fighter pilots of the Burmese army have fallen in love with this "big bottle" fighter. "Hey, hey! Finally, you can kill the enemy again! Relying on the rough skin and thick meat, Liang Taizhen had already held back his anger, and turned into a bulldozer, and rushed to the front with a lot of anger. Even though he had seen the group of German fighters from a distance, Liang Taizhen did not blink his eyes, but quickly pulled up the nose of the plane and continued to climb high.

At the same time, the other P-47 Thunderbolt pilots made the same choice, pulling up the nose to raise the altitude. Because before that, they had already figured out the temper performance of the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter through training or actual combat, as well as the most effective means of attack against the German P-47 Thunderbolt fighter. "Give me death!" After rushing to a horizontal altitude of more than 200 meters above the enemy plane, Liang Taizhen pressed the nose of the plane and started the most lethal recruitment action of the lightning type: dive attack.

Several Browning 0.5-inch machine guns began to erupt tongues of fire in a salvo towards a German Bf-109 fighter diagonally below. At the same time, the pilot of the German Bf-109 fighter naturally would not sit still, and had already adjusted the nose of the plane, and began to fire wildly at Liang Taizhen in the rapid sprint. In this way, the Allied fighter group and the German fighter group once again came head-on, and a fierce air battle between the tip of the needle and the Maimang began.

"Grandma's, let's see who explodes first!" The newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, Liang Taizhen decided to be tough this time, and did not make any tactical evasions, but continued to dive and attack at full speed, firmly locked the firepower point on the head-oncoming Bf-109 fighter, and kept firing wildly. Dangdang, a moment later, Liang Taizhen's bullet line punched a number of holes in the German fighter, but it did not deal a fatal blow to the German fighter. Liang Taizhen's car also failed to retreat, and he was also bitten several times, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong with it, it could only be regarded as skin trauma.

In a flash of lightning, the two fighters staggered by. In the first round, the two sides were evenly matched. "Damn, the German devil is really tough enough, if it were replaced by the Japanese devil's zero fighter, it would have been blown up by Lao Tzu's volley a long time ago!" Liang Taizhen took a sip of dissatisfaction, and then pulled the nose of the plane again to look for the next target. In this chaotic high-speed and high-altitude battlefield, it is impossible to have a one-on-one special field, and opportunities are often fleeting, so you can only bite whoever you catch.

"Hold the grass, you shouldn't be able to run away now!" Soon, when Liang Taizhen climbed to an altitude of 9,000 meters, his eyes lit up, and he saw that a Bf-109 fighter was chasing a Spitfire just a few hundred meters downward. The opponent's posture is very beautiful, which is completely equivalent to leaving his back out and giving himself an extremely perfect shooting angle. The opportunity must not be lost and will not come again, Liang Taizhen, who is looking for nails in his eyes, will naturally not let go of this excellent fighter that hammers the enemy plane, and without saying a word, he directly turns on the fastest dive mode.

"Even! God, the damned Germans are biting me! Help me! The British pilot Charlie was fleeing for his life at the moment, constantly twisting the fuselage for tactical evasion, trying his best to get rid of the pursuit of the German fighters. Speaking of which, this thing is indeed a bit unlucky, just a few dozen seconds ago in the melee, he fished in troubled waters to dive and attack a German Bf-109 fighter, but only after a face, not only did he not make up for the mantis, but he became a mantis hunted by yellow finches.

Charlie struggled desperately all the way, tried his best, and kept shouting for help on the communication channel, but in this chaotic battlefield, where to find a savior, the enemy and us had already messed up the formation, and the fight was inseparable. was chased all the way, and he has been hit by an unknown number of machine guns, anyway, Charlie has already felt that his car is seriously damaged, and I am afraid that the next moment it will be a volley explosion and disintegrate directly.

However, as the saying goes, miracles are always around the corner. Just when Charlie was desperate and waiting for death to come, there was a sudden blinding fire behind him, and then a violent explosion reached his ears. "What's going on? Damn the Germans have been blown up! ”

Charlie subconsciously looked back and was shocked to find that the German fighter plane chasing him had magically exploded and disintegrated. "Thank God!" At this moment, Charlie instantly became excited, and hurriedly spread his five fingers together in his right hand, pointed his middle finger at the left shoulder socket and right shoulder socket on his forehead, chest and chest, and silently recited in his heart, "For the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Amen. ”

However, at this time, the shadow of a fighter plane appeared in Charlie's vision. "Even buy Ka, what's the situation!" Charlie's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly turned his head to look, only to find that a P-47 Thunderbolt fighter was walking side by side with him, and he could even clearly see the pilot's eastern face.

"It turned out that it was the Chinese pilot who blew up the damn German and saved my life!" Charlie instantly understood the situation, and hurriedly extended his thumbs to Liang Taizhen to praise. Liang Taizhen nodded with a smile, and then gestured at Charlie and said, "There is a serious problem with your fighter, hurry up and retreat and return!" I'll escort you for a ride now! ”

"Even, three grams of oil, Verie March!" Charlie hurriedly thanked him again, and then turned the nose of the plane from the beginning of the stream and flew in the direction of Cairo. Liang Taizhen nodded with a smile, and acted responsibly as a escort plane, and after sending Charlie to a relatively safe place all the way, he returned to the frontline battlefield again and continued to fight with the Luftwaffe. "Haha, this P-47 Thunderbolt fighter is really fragrant! The American goods are really good, but it's a pity that the fight was over so quickly! ”

Then a fierce battle lasted for more than 20 minutes, and not only did there not have much fuel and ammunition on their planes, but the German air force had long since died and scattered, and it was rare to see one or two planes in the huge airspace. Liang Tae-jin had to fly the scarred P-47 Thunderbolt fighter to start the return flight. In this battle, Liang Taizhen damaged no less than 10 German fighters before and after, and shot down two of them, which can be regarded as a successful personal debut of the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter.

At this time, the large-scale counter-charge operation on the ground also came to an end, and all the wounded on the battlefield retreated to the rear field hospitals, and the two fortifications that were seriously damaged and could not continue to hold the positions were also evacuated.

In Jiang Qiang's view, these peripheral positions are important, but without the protection of strong fortifications, there is no need to fill them with their lives. Moreover, there are still three or four such lines of defense behind them, which can be held at all, and can greatly deplete the enemy's troops and ammunition. And it should be dark in a few hours, and Jiang Qiang will have enough means to launch a night attack counterattack. When the enemy is strong and we are weak, elastic defense is a very wise option.

At the same time, under this ferocious and abnormal counter-charge operation, the German side suffered heavy losses, with more than half of the attacking troops of the three regiments suffering casualties, and also losing a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. The German fighter group that came to the rescue also suffered heavy losses under the ferocious attack of the Allied fighter pilots, and another 30 fighters were destroyed. Although the Allied side also lost a considerable number of fighters, it was clear that the Allied side had improved significantly compared to the previous record.

I have to say that the new batch of P-47 Thunderbolt fighters is really fragrant, although the comprehensive performance is not as good as the Mustang fighter, but the damage rate is much smaller. By the time the Axis forces readjusted their posture and launched a new round of attacks, it was already two hours later, and it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was only two or three hours of darkness, which was no longer enough for them to push down a new line of defense.

Cairo, Central Hospital. At this time, Jiang Qiang was taking Chen Mingzhu, Xia Yu, Li Jinglin, Huzi and others to the Cairo Central Hospital to comfort the lightly and seriously injured who had just been sent back from the front line. With the influx of a large number of seriously wounded from the front, the military hospitals in the rear have become extremely busy, and the Cairo Central Hospital, which is the largest and most advanced in medical conditions, has naturally become the main force. Helicopter after helicopter rose and landed in the square of the central hospital, constantly bringing the wounded over.

The logistics staff and medical staff who have been waiting in the square carried the seriously injured onto the prepared stretchers as soon as possible and sent them to various wards as soon as possible. The scale of the field hospital in Matru Town is actually not small, but the battle to defend the Matru Fortress today is too tragic and fierce. The field hospital in Matrou Town was already overcrowded, and the beds and medical staff could no longer cope with it, so they had to send all the minor and serious wounded to the hospital further back after emergency treatment.

After all, front-line hospitals are facing bombing, shelling, excessive noise, water and power outages and other crises all the time, which is not conducive to the rescue, monitoring and follow-up treatment of the wounded. The hospitals in the rear, whether it is the hospital environment, medical staff and equipment, are far stronger than the front-line field hospitals. "Click! Click! ”

Xia Yu, Shui Jingxuan, Duan Yinhua and other Chinese and foreign reporters pressed the shutter with solemn faces, recording everything in front of them with their lenses. Although they could not set up planes and drive tanks to bloody cities, nor could they carry guns to the battlefield in person, they were able to play the same role in another anti-Japanese war post. But they can use words, pictures and voices to fight against the Nazis and fascists, and fight ceaselessly for the country, for the nation, for justice and peace, and contribute their strength and blood!

"Ah, third brother, you, what's wrong with you?" Duan Yinhua was clicking the shutter, but suddenly found that a seriously injured person who had just been lifted off the helicopter turned out to be his third brother Duan Zhenguo. And what made Duan Yinhua's face pale, and what made Duan Yinhua's face extremely frightened was that at this moment, Duan Zhenguo's eyes were closed, his face was even pale, and his body was still wrapped in gauze stained red with blood, which looked no different from a mummy at a glance. "Third brother, you, wake up!"

In this situation, Duan Yinhua really couldn't calm down, and hurriedly hung the camera on his chest and ran over quickly, crying in a crushed voice. However, Duan Zhenguo was still unconscious, and there was no way to respond to Duan Yinhua's words. "Third brother, you, don't scare me! Third brother, wake up! Duan Yinhua was even more scared, and after coming to the stretcher, he subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to grab Duan Zhenguo's arm and wake him up.

At this time, the military doctor who was conducting a pupil examination hurriedly put down the small flashlight in his hand, stretched out his hand to restrain Duan Yinhua's movements, and said, "This young lady, please don't get excited, the wounded person has now fallen into a deep coma, and his condition is very critical, so he can't move!" ”
