Devil's Army

Chapter 1685: Blocked Chengshan Ancient City

The Japanese army also built fortifications in the ancient city of Chengshan. If they broke through the ancient city of Chengshan, they could enter Dalian.

The easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Daheishan Mountain City was breached by the devil's troops in just two days.

The Japanese troops in Chengshan Ancient City actually dug up the small road under the ancient city and diverted the water from the upper reaches of Jiahe River into the broken canal.

In this way, the Japanese troops in Dalian could not reach Andong City through the Chengshan Ancient City.

The soldiers of the Third Brigade also had no way to enter Dalian City through the Chengshan Ancient City.

The commander of the First Regiment planned to divert the water from the Jiahe River and fill in the ditch. However, Japanese machine guns blazed down from the high ground of Chengshan Ancient City. Mortars, dodging the First Army Air Force's airstrikes, continued to attack the First Regiment's soldiers, making the ditch-filling work unsustainable.

After discussion, the first and second regiment leaders decided to give up entering Dalian City from Chengshan Ancient City and instead take a detour through Huayuankou to enter Dalian.

By this time, the Huludao Navy had already reached the waters off Dalian. The brigade commander in charge of the Dalian Campaign ordered the First Army Aviation Squadron to launch the first wave of attacks on the Japanese warships in Dalian.

At this time, the Third Brigade had not yet passed the ancient city of Chengshan, so the brigade commander had to let the First Aviation Brigade enter the Daheishan mountain city.

Because Daheishan Mountain City was over 200 kilometers away from Dalian Port, the captain of the first detachment had no choice but to deploy six Golden Eagle V drones as information relays. The remaining Golden Eagle V drones flew to the vicinity of Dalian waters, preparing to attack the Japanese warships there.

The Japanese China Fleet was stationed in Dalian at the time, and Commander Yoshida was wondering why the reconnaissance plane he had sent out hadn't sent back any information for so long.

At this time, the sentry of the flagship armored cruiser "Izumo", who had been on high alert on the flagpole, was shocked.

He spotted the shells with flames at the tail, heading towards their fleet.

He quickly used flags to signal the signalman on the deck.

The signalman quickly sounded the air raid siren.

The anti-aircraft artillerymen of the warship who had been waiting for orders on the artillery platform immediately fired fiercely at the attacking cruise missiles.

The anti-aircraft artillery shells and anti-aircraft machine gun bullets from the warships formed a fire network that immediately swept towards the flying cruise missiles.

Suddenly, dense gunfire sounded over the quiet port of Dalian.

Since the first wave of attack by the 1st Aviation Group was a surprise attack, it was too late when the Japanese army counterattacked.

Moreover, the main targets of the first wave of attacks by the 1st Army Aviation Group were the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine gun positions on the Japanese warships, clearing the way for the next wave of air raids by the aviation force.

Many Japanese warships' anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were destroyed by cruise missiles before they could even fire.

Immediately afterwards, the second wave of air strikes from the 1st Army Aviation Squadron followed.

Because the cruise missiles developed by the First Anti-Japanese Army did not have terminal maneuverability and were slow, many of the second wave of cruise missiles were hit and destroyed by Japanese anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns during the attack.

Just as the Japanese army was on high alert and attacking the cruise missiles in the direction of Andong Port with all its might, the Golden Eagle No. 5 UAVs of the 3rd Aviation Squadron that came with the Hainan Island Fleet also launched the first wave of sneak attacks on the Japanese fleet in Dalian.

When some Japanese anti-aircraft artillerymen were attacked from behind, they discovered that there were also these flaming shells behind them.

The three waves of attacks by the 1st and 3rd Aviation Battalions destroyed many anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns on the Japanese warships in Dalian.

Fortunately, the Japanese Dalian Fleet had many warships, and Commander-in-Chief Yoshida immediately split up to intercept the shells fired by the Devil Force from the direction of Andong Port and Huludao.
