Devil's Army

"We should use our First Army's superior air force to kill as many Japanese troops as possible." A brigade commander expressed his opinion.

"The problem is that the air force that attacked the two artillery batteries was entangled by the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery units and could not split up." The commander of the third brigade responded helplessly.

"Commander Li, is the Golden Eagle No. 5 of the First Aviation Squadron still there?"

"The Golden Eagle 5 suffered little damage in this naval engagement; most of its missiles were still there, but it lacked any cruise missiles."

"The Japanese artillery is inert. We don't need cruise missiles to attack it from the air; air-to-ground missiles will do. Have the arsenal dispatch a batch of Golden Eagle 4 drones to provide fire support."

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Li Guozhu said, then stood up and left the meeting room.

After receiving the telegram from Brigade Commander Li, the tribal arsenal arranged a batch of air-to-ground missiles and Golden Eagle 4 drones overnight.

At around 5 a.m., air-to-ground missiles and Golden Eagle 4 drones were delivered to the camp of the st Aviation Brigade.

The officers and soldiers of the First Aviation Squadron of the Army quickly replaced the air-to-ground missiles and debugged the Golden Eagle No. 5 UAV.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the Fengtian Air Force and the Jinzhou Air Force launched air strikes on the Heshang Island Fort and the Xujiashan Fort.

In order to protect these two artillery positions, the Japanese army stockpiled a considerable number of Type 93 anti-aircraft machine guns.

The First Army Air Force destroyed a batch of Type 93 anti-aircraft machine guns, and the Japanese army immediately replenished them with a new batch.

On the contrary, the First Army's air force had its fighter planes constantly damaged or shot down.

At 7:5 in the morning, all the Golden Eagle No. s of the First Aviation Squadron were equipped with air-to-ground missiles and debugged.

The 18st Regiment of the th Brigade and the st Regiment of the st Brigade began to split into two groups and launched an attack on the Heshangshan Fort.

The 18rd Regiment of the th Brigade and the st Regiment of the rd Brigade also split into two groups to attack the Xujiashan Fort.

Xujiashan Fort is the largest of the six forts around Dalian Bay. It was equipped with the most advanced German Krupp cannons at the time, which effectively blocked the attack of the First Army.

Therefore, the soldiers of the 18th Brigade and the rd Brigade were at a great disadvantage from the start of their attack on the Xujiashan Fort today.

Jinzhou's air force discovered that the Japanese Xujiashan artillery was fiercely bombing their infantry, and flew over to prepare for an air strike.

The Japanese anti-aircraft artillery unit suddenly fired fiercely from behind, blowing up a bomber of the first army on the spot and damaging a fighter plane.

After the Jinzhou Air Force hastily bombed the Xujiashan Fort, they turned to deal with the Xujiashan anti-aircraft artillery unit, which posed the greatest threat to them.

At this time, the Golden Eagle No. 5 UAV of the First Aviation Squadron had approached the Heshangshan Fort and the Xujiashan Fort.

At this time, the Japanese artillery observers also discovered the small aircraft flying at a very low altitude towards their artillery position and quickly reported it to the anti-aircraft artillery unit. However, the anti-aircraft artillery unit was engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese air force and could not spare any time.

One after another, air-to-ground missiles with flames at the tail began to attack the Japanese artillery on the battery.

The Japanese artillery on the Heshangshan and Xujiashan forts were hit and destroyed one after another by air-to-ground missiles.

At this time, the Golden Eagle No. 4, which had rushed to the sky above the Japanese artillery position, also fiercely fired at the Japanese soldiers on the artillery position, suppressing the Japanese firepower.

The infantry of the First Army took the opportunity to intensify the attack on the Heshang Mountain and Xujia Mountain positions.

After half a day of bloody fighting, the 18st Regiment of the th Brigade and the st Regiment of the st Brigade successfully captured the Heshangshan Fort.

The 18rd Regiment of the th Brigade and the st Regiment of the rd Brigade also successfully captured the Xujiashan Artillery.

The fall of Xujiashan Fort and Heshangshan Fort blocked the Japanese army's land route of retreat from Jinzhou.
