Chapter 108 Artillery bombing and air bombing together
For Colonel Fujisueyoshi, the commander of the regiment, who was preparing for a desperate battle, not only did he not wait for the support of the Japanese aircraft group, but what he waited for was a sneak attack and bombing by Liu Feiyang's flying troops.
"No! It's a group of enemy planes. Why is it a group of enemy planes coming, not from our Imperial Air Force!"
The expression on Colonel Fujisueyoshi's face immediately changed drastically. Facing such a sudden appearance of a group of aircraft, he was completely caught off guard.
As soon as he finished his panicked words, a group of more than twenty F4U pirate carrier-based aircrafts, making a low buzzing sound, flew towards Dunwu Temple, and also discovered the 35th Japanese Infantry Regiment, which was fighting with the Sichuan Army's 133rd Division.
In the midst of a fierce battle with the 135th Division,
In response, these aircraft groups were also circling quickly and preparing to drop aerial bombs for air strikes.
Of course, their target was the Japanese position behind the 35th Infantry Regiment, which was the position of the 6th Infantry Brigade.
Seeing this,
Major General Akiyama Yoshiyun, commander of the 6th Infantry Brigade, also had a similar expression that suddenly changed.
"Bagaya Road! Why are there groups of enemy planes here?"
"Hurry up and let the troops carry out covert air defense operations, and let our flying troops come over immediately to carry out support operations!"
"Quick!"
"And immediately ask our heavy artillery troops and artillery troops to move their positions and evacuate!"
Major General Akiyama Yoshiyun, commander of the 6th Infantry Brigade, was shocked and exclaimed.
Especially when he thought that there were heavy artillery troops on his side, and that the artillery troops had not evacuated from the artillery positions, his expression became more and more panicked.
Because once their heavy artillery and artillery units are blown up by such a group of F4U pirate carrier-based aircraft that suddenly appeared, then he, the brigade commander, may be done for.
The most tragic thing is that his 6th Infantry Brigade currently does not have any air defense weapons and equipment to conduct air defense operations.
So Major General Akiyama Yoshiyuki became very panicked.
But just as he exclaimed,
Those F4U pirate carrier-based aircraft groups, and the more than ten JU88 bomber groups that followed, had already begun their air raids and bombing operations by dropping aerial bombs.
Immediately, sharp and strange whistling sounds came from the sky, and thick black aerial bombs quickly detached from the fuselage and landed accurately on the Japanese positions.
And it still fell on the rear position of the 6th Infantry Brigade.
As well as the heavy artillery troops and artillery troops' artillery positions that were moving and evacuating in panic.
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
"Rumble, rumble! Rumble, rumble..."
Major General Akiyama Yoshiyun and all the Japanese officers and soldiers of the 6th Infantry Brigade, including the Japanese artillerymen of the heavy artillery unit, all of a sudden felt the ground beneath their feet shaking violently.
Then, there were bursts of earth-shattering explosions and ferocious shock waves sweeping across.
The explosion point of the dropped aerial bomb and the sound of the explosion immediately shook the eardrums of all the Japanese officers and soldiers, causing pain and being swallowed up.
Immediately, streams of black smoke shot straight into the sky, wiping out a large number of Japanese officers and soldiers, as well as Japanese artillery.
"This... this is a heavy aviation bomb! At least 500 kilograms or more!"
Seeing such terrifying explosion power,
Many Japanese officers and soldiers immediately shouted in fear with trembling voices.
"This... what type of aircraft is this? Where did they come from?"
"It seems to be the main bomber of the German army! There are also a number of new models of carrier-based aircraft groups!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
"Rumble, rumble! Rumble, rumble..."
Following the frightened shouts of these Japanese officers, after falling and falling,
Some Japanese officers also figured out that the bomber group that sneaked up on them was the German army's main bomber, the JU88 bomber.
But just as the Japanese officers who were responding finished their words,
One after another, heavy bombs exploded fiercely in front, back, left and right of them. The huge shock wave pushed all the Japanese officers and soldiers hundreds of meters away to the ground, choked by the thick smoke and fierce shock wave.
, completely swallowed up.
Faced with such a completely unexpected air raid,
All of a sudden, all the Japanese officers and soldiers of the 6th Infantry Brigade were bombarded and fell into a huge panic. There were fleeing Japanese officers and soldiers everywhere.
There were even some Japanese tank soldiers in tanks and chariots, who quickly drove their Doutin tanks and chariots and fled in panic.
The Japanese officers and soldiers of the 35th Infantry Regiment, the commander of the regiment, Colonel Fujisueyoshi, and the Sichuan officers and soldiers of the 133rd and 135th Divisions of the Sichuan Army, were dumbfounded.
Originally, they were worried that the sudden appearance of these aircraft groups would carry out air raids and bombings on them.
But now, they are only bombing the Japanese troops in the rear positions of the 6th Infantry Brigade with air strikes, especially targeting the Japanese heavy artillery troops and artillery troops whose targets are very conspicuous, and are conducting indiscriminate bombings.
The commander of the regiment, Colonel Fujisueyoshi, and all the Japanese officers and soldiers of the 35th Infantry Regiment under him were also swallowing in fear, glad that they were not the target of the air raid.
Otherwise, they can all imagine how many casualties they would have suffered.
........
at the same time,
On the other side of Jiangyin City, there was also a group of F4U pirate carrier-based aircraft groups and a group of JU88 bombers, conducting air strikes and bombings against the troops of the Japanese Thirteenth Division who were launching an attack.
"Bagaya road!"
"Where did these enemy planes come from?"
"Where is our navy's carrier-based aircraft fleet? And our empire's aircraft fleet?"
"Why don't they intercept these damn enemy planes and bomb our infantry with air strikes?"
Faced with the sudden appearance of Liu Feiyang's planes and the indiscriminate bombing,
Originally, the navy's gun group, carrier-based aircraft group, and the army's Japanese aircraft group bombed the front line in Jiangyin City, leaving corpses everywhere, smoke filling the air, and flames rising into the sky, and my mood
Okay, no, no, Colonel Shintake Takada, the commander of the 58th Regiment,
Now it was due to the sudden appearance of a group of enemy planes and fierce sneak attacks and bombings.
And I feel the pain in my body,
Because the other party was conducting sneak attacks and bombing his frontline troops, and also caused a large number of casualties.
.........
"Artillery camp, artillery camp, are you ready?"
"Now is the time for us to use artillery troops here for the first time to bombard the Japanese troops!"
At this time,
Behind the position of the 112th Division of the Northeast Army, Chen Ziwen, the commander of the clone troops dispatched by Liu Feiyang, was also using a field phone to make inquiries at the artillery position not far behind him.
At this time, in the rear position of these clone troops, sixteen 155-caliber M2 howitzers were divided into two rows, with their high muzzles pointed at the position of the Japanese 58th Infantry Regiment. Each artillery was surrounded by
