Devil's Army
Chapter 166 Breaking the Japs' Air Superiority
The jackal said nothing. He looked at the paddock for a while, then at the Japs.
The division commander Sakamoto was very smart. From the beginning of the battle, he had been sending two regiments to defend the two wings of the attacking force. As long as the enemy was found on the two wings, the tanks could assist the troops defending the two wings to attack the two wings at any time.
At this time, the howitzer in the paddock spoke again. A grenade hit the rear armor of the middle tank, and the tank jumped and stalled. The driver and crew in the tank were stunned. Another grenade hit the front of the left tank, raising a cloud of dirt.
The tank was blocked by the dust, so it moved forward and passed through the dust. Just as it was about to fire, another grenade flew over and hit its left track.
The tank was grounded, and the driver and crew inside were also shaken. Another grenade hit the front armor of the last tank, and the tank abandoned the charging infantry and turned back.
On the battlefield, the Japanese tank soldiers could decide whether to retreat on their own if their tanks were damaged without being punished.
"Attack!" the jackal gave the order immediately after seeing that all the Japanese tanks had been eliminated.
Suddenly, there were intensive gunshots and grenade explosions on both sides of the Japanese attacking forces.
However, the charging Japanese were not affected much. They still launched a charge towards the enclosure with the support of artillery fire.
The Japanese soldiers defending the two wings were slightly confused, then they lay down and fought back against the attack of the Fifth Brigade.
The battle soon entered a fierce stage. Despite the heavy casualties, the 41st Army in Weichang still firmly occupied the fortifications. Although the st and th Brigades of the st Army had fierce firepower and attacked with all their might, the Japanese on both wings fought desperately and blocked the attacks of the st and th Brigades, so that the st and th Brigades could not advance for a while.
The Japanese artillery took turns bombarding the 41st Brigade, the 41th Brigade and the st Army. The st Army's howitzers kept changing positions to bombard the charging Japanese.
Of course, the casualties caused by the Japanese artillery fire to the 41st Brigade, the 41th Brigade and the st Army were far greater than the casualties caused by the st Army's artillery fire to the Japanese.
However, the firepower of the soldiers of the 1st and 5th brigades was stronger than that of the Japs on both wings, and the casualties they inflicted on the Japs were greater than those inflicted on them by the Japs.
Seeing that the battle was at a stalemate, Division Commander Sakamoto called for his trump card, the bombers, to come for support. Little did he know that the trump card, which had been tried and tested in the Northeast battlefield, failed this time.
As a huge roar came from the sky, five Japanese G3M96 bombers flew over from a distance.
"Prepare to hide from planes." The commander of the 41th Brigade in the 107st Army Works shouted.
At that time, the Northeast Army had a saying: "We are not afraid of guns or cannons, but we are afraid of the eggs laid by the devil's birds." This shows how great a shadow the devil's bombers had caused them.
Before the Japanese G3M96 bomber laid eggs, the golden eagle waiting nearby flew towards the G3M96.
Two flashes of fire appeared on the belly of the golden eagle, and two air-to-air missiles flew out and rushed towards the two bombers flying in the front.
The two bombers exploded in mid-air almost simultaneously, with two huge sparks flying in the air. The bomber on the left was too close to the bomber that exploded. Several shrapnel hit it, and it roared towards the Uledai River with thick black smoke, startling all the fish in the river.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining two bombers turned around and tried to escape. But could they outrun the air-to-air missiles?
Two flashes of fire appeared on the golden eagle's belly again, and two air-to-air missiles flew towards the two bombers.
No one saw or knew how the two bombers in front of us exploded in mid-air, whether they were the Japanese or the soldiers of the 41st Army.
But the remaining two G3M96 bombers, both the Japanese and the soldiers of the 41st Army saw two "shells" with flames behind them, and kept chasing them. The G3M96 bomber turned left, and it also turned left. The bomber flew down, and it also flew down, tightly biting and not letting go, until the two bombers were blown up in mid-air.
From then on, whenever the devil troops participated in a battle, the devils almost never dared to send out bombers. The devil troops broke the devil's air superiority.
Division Commander Sakamoto had been staring at the bombers exploding in the sky. Five bombers, all destroyed without dropping a single bomb. He then remembered that Commander Musashi had said at a military meeting that the Devil's Army had a powerful weapon against airplanes.
This time, he had not only heard about it, but also seen with his own eyes the flaming shells that would chase after airplanes.
Where did the charging Japanese stop? They had planned to wait for the bombers to bomb the 41st Army's fortifications before rushing to the enclosure. But now they were waiting for four of their five bombers to explode in mid-air and one to rush into the Uledai River.
The Japanese artillery also temporarily stopped bombing, and they looked at their own bombers exploding in mid-air in bewilderment, not knowing what was going on.
The happiest were the soldiers of the 41st Army. They rushed out of their fortifications and shouted with joy. They had been abused by the Japanese iron birds many times and hated them the most, but they had no way to deal with them. There was no doubt that these five Japanese iron birds must have been shot down by the First Anti-Japanese Army.
Division Commander Sakamoto ordered a retreat. The Japanese soldiers charging in the middle retreated dejectedly, and the Japanese soldiers covering the two wings also retreated alternately.
