Devil's Army

Towards evening that day, a Japanese reconnaissance plane flew stealthily over Tiaobinshan County at high altitude.

Feilong sounded the air raid alarm, and the anti-aircraft artillery unit immediately prepared for battle.

Since the reconnaissance plane's flight path was unknown and its flight altitude was 75 to meters, and the mm anti-aircraft gun's maximum altitude was meters, the anti-aircraft gun unit could only watch with hatred as the reconnaissance plane flew from Tiaobinshan County to Tieling County, and then flew away.

Afterwards, Leng Feng, Hui Lang and Wen Lang analyzed: The Japanese reconnaissance plane came here not just to show up, but to investigate their military deployment and prepare to attack them. The reason why it flew so high was because it was afraid of the golden eagle in their hands.

"Commander, we have never shot down the Japanese reconnaissance plane, and today it completed its reconnaissance mission so smoothly. But flying so high for reconnaissance, the reconnaissance effect is very limited. I estimate that he may be more bold to fly over for reconnaissance tomorrow. Even low-altitude reconnaissance." Wen Lang analyzed.

"Then where will the Japanese reconnaissance aircraft go to investigate tomorrow?" asked Gray Wolf.

"The Japanese reconnaissance plane definitely didn't come here to say hello to the residents of Tiaobinshan County and Tieling County. It just wants to investigate our military deployment. So the military deployment on this road from Jinzhou, Rehe, Faku County to Tiaobinshan County must be their focus of investigation. Should we deploy anti-aircraft artillery units on this road and wait for them to appear?" Gray Wolf continued.

Leng Feng and Wen Lang both agreed with Hui Lang's analysis. So Leng Feng decided:

An artillery position was set up on the road from Jinzhou, Rehe, Faku County to Tiaobinshan County. At the same time, trenches were dug and a command post was built to form a brigade's defensive position.

He also ordered the two 75mm anti-aircraft guns and two anti-aircraft machine guns in Hejiazhao Village to be deployed along this road. At the same time, the three 75mm anti-aircraft guns and three anti-aircraft machine guns in Diaobingshan County were also deployed along this road.

Leng Feng told Captain Wu of the anti-aircraft artillery unit that they must find a way to shoot down the Japanese reconnaissance plane this time. If he was allowed to fly back safely this time, the next time it would not be a reconnaissance plane, but a bomber. In this way, Tiaobingshan County and Tieling County might be bombed by Japanese bombers and fall into a sea of ​​fire.

If we cannot guarantee the safety of Tiaobinshan County and Tieling County, it would be meaningless for us to recapture them. It would even bring disaster to the residents of Tiaobinshan County and Tieling County.

Captain Wu of the anti-aircraft artillery unit assured Leng Feng loudly and affirmatively: If the Japanese reconnaissance plane dares to come tomorrow and passes by here, we will definitely shoot it down.

The next day at about 3:00 p.m., the Japanese reconnaissance plane came again. It had flown over Tiaobinshan County and Tieling County yesterday but had not captured any valuable intelligence. The Japanese Operations Department was very dissatisfied with this.

This time he flew along the route from Jinzhou, Rehe, Faku County to Tiaobinshan County.

Suddenly, it detected a defensive position that looked like an artillery position.

Feilong reported its flight altitude as 5,200 meters.

The flight altitude was too high, so the anti-aircraft artillery unit did not open fire. Instead, they held their breath and waited quietly.

The Japanese reconnaissance plane flew past from high altitude, and the anti-aircraft artillery unit was a little disappointed.

What can you see clearly from such a high altitude? Captain Wu thought he would come over to investigate in detail.

Sure enough, the Japanese reconnaissance plane flew past and then turned back, lowering its altitude. 4300m, 4000m, 3500m, 3000m. Feilong continuously transmitted the Japanese reconnaissance plane's flight altitude and azimuth data to the anti-aircraft artillery unit.

The anti-aircraft artillery unit quickly locked onto the Japanese reconnaissance plane.

At this time, the Japanese in the Japanese reconnaissance plane was very happy. He had made a contribution this time. He clearly saw that there was an artillery position of the devil's troops on the ground, as well as a brigade's defensive position. He even vaguely saw a headquarters.

"Open fire," Captain Wu gave the order decisively.

Five anti-aircraft guns and five anti-aircraft machine guns hidden on both sides of the path opened fire at the same time, and dragons of fire pounced on the Japanese reconnaissance plane.

The Japanese reconnaissance plane was hit by countless anti-aircraft shells and disintegrated in mid-air, with the fragments of the plane scattered all over the ground.

The soldiers of the antiaircraft artillery unit jumped up happily and clapped their hands to encourage each other. This was their first attack, and they had already achieved the achievement of killing an enemy plane.

Leng Feng has been staying in the battalion headquarters in Tiaobinshan County ever since the sentry reported the sighting of a Japanese reconnaissance plane.

After more than an hour, the guard happily ran over to Leng Feng and said:

"Commander, it's been shot down, it's been shot down, the Japanese reconnaissance plane has been shot down."

Leng Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stomped it out and said:

"The skies over Tiaobinshan and Tieling counties are now considered safe."

In fact, Musashi Nobuyoshi had always disagreed with sending planes to conduct reconnaissance in the Devil Forces' defense zone. But one of the staff officers said:

"The war is imminent, but we know nothing about the deployment of the Devil Forces. The scouts sent to the Devil Forces' defense zone either did not return or did not bring back any useful information. In addition, the Devil Forces' air defense weapons appeared in the Chahar area. Perhaps they transferred these weapons to Chahar?"

Commander Musashi thought about it and agreed to send a reconnaissance plane to conduct reconnaissance in Tiaobingshan County and Tieling County.

In fact, the Japanese staff officer guessed correctly. Leng Feng's anti-aircraft weapon, the Golden Eagle, was transferred to Chahar. But he still had an anti-aircraft artillery unit, and this anti-aircraft artillery unit was a hit.
