Started as a security team, developed into a heavy armored synthesis division

Because Wu Liuyi bombed the Japanese 105 howitzer battalion yesterday, the Japanese urgently mobilized their imperial heavy weapon, the Type 25 mm anti-aircraft machine gun.

Because it is used for air defense on land, this thing is different from the navy's triple-mounted one. This thing is a single-mounted one.

A magazine holds 15 rounds, and you need to replace the magazine after each shot, leaving a large vacuum period.

Moreover, because our air force is extremely weak, many Japanese infantrymen are not equipped with this type of machine gun.

And even if they do exist, they are basically used for ground combat because there is little chance of shooting down aircraft.

Because there are no planes to fly.

The anti-aircraft artillery unit of the 33rd Division was specially formed by General Okamura Yasuji.

Not only did they have a good number of Type 25 75mm anti-aircraft machine guns, but they also had Taisho -year type mm anti-aircraft guns.

It’s just that the 75mm anti-aircraft guns were protecting their 150mm howitzers in the back, and on the front line of Koike was an anti-aircraft artillery battalion with 16 25mm machine guns.

Boom boom boom boom boom!

As the Type 96 machine gun opened fire, bullets began to fly in the air. In response, Wu Liuyi smiled slightly, picked up the radio and said:

"The Japanese really have anti-aircraft guns. Then we won't go down, but bomb directly at an altitude of 5000 meters."

When the Japanese anti-aircraft battalion left the city yesterday, this information was discovered by the observation post, and Xiao Dingfang also said that the Japanese had anti-aircraft guns and we must not be careless.

Sure enough.

But unfortunately, at an altitude of 5000 meters, the Type machine gun was completely useless.

Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Soon, the bomb bays of the three B17 bombers were opened, and a total of 90 100-kilogram aerial bombs were dropped.

After dropping the bomb, it slowly made a big circle in the air before returning.

Seeing that the 25mm machine gun was of no use at all, Miyawaki Sasuke was so angry that he stomped his feet.

There is no way. The Type 25 3000mm machine gun has a firing height of only 5000 meters. It is too difficult to attack a target at an altitude of meters.

Seeing the aerial bombs falling on the position one after another, the huge power of the explosion killed, blew up, or blew away one imperial warrior after another, Miyawaki Yuki Sasuke was already cursing.

"idiot!

I suggested sending the 75mm anti-aircraft guns to the front line, but they refused to listen and insisted on protecting the 150mm howitzers.

The howitzers are doing fine in the city, who would go to bomb them?

Now, the squadron has suffered heavy casualties, what should we do? "

Miyawaki Yuki Sasuke estimated that at least two squadrons suffered casualties in this bombing. These were all his soldiers. This was their first battle since arriving in Dragon Country.

As a result, in less than two days, his regiment had suffered nearly 1700 casualties. What should he do?

However, it was right for them not to let their imperial heavy weapon, the 75mm anti-aircraft gun, leave the city, because once that big guy leaves the city, our hidden observation posts will discover it.

For example, Xu Erhe would report to Anqing and Tianzhu Mountain as soon as possible.

Then the bombers came to bomb.

This type of large anti-aircraft gun is very heavy. Not only is it difficult to move in mountainous areas like today, but it also takes time to prepare for air defense.

While they were being transported to the Koike front, they were completely helpless against the B17 bombings.

And now, Xu Erhe was using a telescope to watch Wu Liuyi and his men's bombing.

"The submachine gun in my hand is much more powerful than a hoe.

But my goodness, this bomber is more powerful than a submachine gun.

Fortunately, the third child was at home farming, otherwise he would have been frightened.

By the way, Chengcai, I heard that you can also fly a plane?

When will you take me to the sky for a spin?"

Chengcai and Wu Liuyi are considered to be the first members of K Squadron and have seniority. They were the first batch of pilots at Moon Lake Airport.

Xu Erhe was a member of Team K who was recruited later and did not make it.

However, this guy is nimble, works hard and doesn't talk too much, and he is also a leader in Team K.

He also likes headshots very much, commonly known as a head-killing expert.

The ability of that K-man is almost the same as that of the sniper team.

“Just fly, it’s not that difficult, after the mission, I’ll find a chance to fly a plane.

But our plane is really fast in the air, aren't you afraid?" Chengcai joked.

Xu Erhe said: "What am I afraid of? I have a kitchen knife in my hometown, and I have weapons here. What am I afraid of?"

Because of the long distance, even though there was a fierce bombing in the direction of Koike, the shaking was not that great on their side, so the two of them were able to chat more easily.

But at this moment, there was movement in Taihu County.

"Captain, a large group of Japanese soldiers has arrived. This... this is at least a battalion. No, this is a regiment!"

Hearing this, Xu Erhe looked towards the direction of Taihu Lake and saw that there were indeed Japanese infantry leaving the city.

Leading the way was still the three-wheeled vehicle, followed by trucks and infantry. It was definitely a large force.

So Xu Erhe ordered: "Send a telegram to the headquarters, a regiment of the Japanese will leave Taihu County and head east. The target may be Xincang Town, bypassing Wanghe Town to attack Qianshan."

"Yes!"

Beep beep beep, beep beep, beep beep beep…

Soon, the messenger began to send telegrams, and Xu Erhe spoke again:

"Chengcai, do you think the Japanese will pass by here? Should we give them a hoe?"

Chengcai was stunned: "You are crazy!"

"No, you're crazy. You've been here for a day and a night, what else can you do?"

In Taihu City, the commander of the 33rd Division, Shigetaro Amakasu, had a solemn expression on his face. He was worried. He was worried about whether it was right or wrong for the second regiment to leave the city.

Because he had a feeling that something bad was going to happen to this wing.

But he had no choice but to give the order because his mission was to capture Qianshan.

As a warrior of the empire and an imperial lieutenant general with the full spirit of Bushido, he must attack.

"Send a message to Commander Okamura Yasuji that the 214th Utsunomiya Regiment of our division has left the city and is preparing to bypass the towns of Shinkan and Wanghe and attack Qianshan from the south.

I hope the commander can give me some air tactical guidance."

Air tactical guidance, that is, the fighter jets of the Imperial Army Aviation Regiment.

There was no way. Xiao Dingfang now had fighter planes and bombers in his hands, and for some unknown reason, he didn't want to bomb Wangjiang or Congyang, but just focused on bombing his 33rd Division.

In this situation, it is impossible to do without air fire cover.

At this time, the Japanese commander in chief in Wuhan, General Okamura Neiji, received some bad news.

That is, the latest model of Zero carrier-based fighter in 1939 successfully completed its first flight!

And the time was yesterday, April 4st.

That's right, that was the navy's carrier-based attack aircraft, not their army's fighter jet.

red deer.

But at this moment, a man wearing the uniform of their Imperial Navy Vice Admiral walked in.

"Okamura-kun, we meet again."
