Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone

In the temporary helicopter base, the commander of the Army Aviation Brigade, Guo Yang, had been waiting for orders from his superiors at the temporary brigade headquarters since morning.

This battle is a key battle to prove the strength of their Army Aviation Brigade, so he is under more pressure than anyone else now.

If their aviation brigade can perform well in this operation.

Then these helicopters, which are jokingly called small planes, will be able to gain recognition from the troops and even be promoted throughout the army.

"Report to the brigade commander, our superiors called and asked us to take action immediately.

The Air Force and intelligence agencies have already conducted reconnaissance of Xiurong County and asked us to airdrop directly into Xiurong County."

After hearing this, Guo Yang was shocked.

"Okay, great! Order all units to proceed according to the original plan and send the 1st Airborne Division advance battalion to Xiurong County."

Their Army Aviation Brigade only has helicopters, but no infantry units, that is, air assault infantry battalions.

Therefore, the 1st Airborne Division organized an advance battalion. This advance battalion was composed of the elite soldiers of the 1st Airborne Division, and their combat capabilities were among the best in the entire division.

"Hurry, hurry, get on the plane!"

Fully armed soldiers from the advance battalion quickly and orderly entered the Nighthawk transport helicopter through the rear hatch.

Each Nighthawk transport helicopter can carry 12 soldiers, which is exactly one squad.

“Boom boom boom…”

The helicopter propellers spun at high speed, stirring up the air and making a loud noise.

Soon the roar of helicopters filled the air.

Soon, under the command of the ground commander, the first double-blade light attack helicopter took off the ground.

These double-blade light armed reconnaissance helicopters carry a rectangular rocket launcher on each side, with a caliber of 89 mm and a layout of four on top and four on the bottom.

In addition, two 2mm caliber machine guns are installed.

Among them, this rocket launch nest was installed by the Army Aviation Corps itself.

After testing, it was found that the recoil of the rocket launcher would not affect the helicopter, so all double-edged ones were installed.

However, the main task of the double-blade light armed reconnaissance helicopter is reconnaissance, and performing ground attack missions is secondary.

Because it is not a professional armed helicopter and does not have heavy armor protection.

A single rifle bullet could penetrate its glass and armor.

Therefore, it is still very dangerous to fly this reconnaissance helicopter to perform ground attack missions.

However, it must be said that it can still launch effective attacks when facing light infantry on the ground.

A number of simple double-blade light armed helicopters took off first and flew forward at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour.

Its maximum flying speed is only 160 kilometers per hour, and it usually cruises at 120 kilometers per hour.

After the Double-Blade armed reconnaissance helicopter completed its takeoff and flew forward, the Nighthawk transport helicopter also took off one after another.

After about half an hour, the entire temporary helicopter base became empty and very quiet.

In front, a group of dozens of helicopters were flying at an altitude of about 1000 meters, approaching Xiurong County at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour.

"That's Ningwu Pass over there, right?"

After the helicopter group flew forward for less than ten minutes, they saw endless mountains in the distance, and among these mountains stood a city.

There is also a winding railway and highway on the ground that extends all the way into the city.

Obviously this is Ningwu Pass.

The appearance of helicopters also attracted the attention of the Ningwu Pass defense line.

The headquarters of the 72nd Division is located in Ningwu Pass.

The commander of the 72nd Division looked at the strangely shaped planes through a telescope and felt puzzled.

Judging from the direction the fleet was flying, it was not heading towards them.

And how come the propellers of these planes are on top of their heads? How can they fly?

Many doubts flashed through his mind.

At this moment, a number of P-47D bombers appeared in the sky above Ningwu Pass.

This P-47D Bottle Squadron was really coming for them.

Their presence was also to protect the helicopter group from attacks from the ground.

"Air strike!"

When 40 racks of milk bottles appeared, the entire Ningwu Pass defense line was mobilized.

They no longer had the mind to pay attention to the group of helicopters flying over their heads.

The reason why the helicopter group flew over Ningwu Pass instead of taking a detour was mainly because the flight range was too short.

The range of both helicopters is about four to five hundred kilometers.

If the ship is fully loaded with people, the range will be only more than 200 kilometers.

The round trip distance must be controlled within about 100 kilometers.

Therefore, we can only take the shortest route, which is the Ningwu Pass route.

Xiurong County is located in the Xinding Basin, with Yunzhong Mountain to the west, Wutai Mountain to the east, and Xizhou Mountain to the south. Jinyang is located across Xizhou Mountain.

Therefore, Xiurong County is equivalent to the northern gate of Jinyang.

However, the northern gate is now empty of troops.

Fu Changqing's troops were either concentrated on the Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass fronts, or in Jinyang.

Therefore, Xiurong County only has one security force responsible for local public security, with a total of only about 200 people.

A distance of 100 kilometers only takes forty to fifty minutes for a group of helicopters.

The Double Blade group of armed reconnaissance helicopters first arrived over the county seat of Xiurong County.

When you hear the dense roar coming from above your head.

People from the entire county focused their attention on the double-blade light armed reconnaissance helicopters that were roaring and circling.

"Iron birds, mother, look at the many iron birds in the sky."

"This is not an iron bird, there is going to be a war. Go back to the house and hide. I will go find your father."

The appearance of a group of double-blade armed reconnaissance helicopters broke the tranquility of this small county town.

Many people realized that a war was about to break out, and the crowd in the county town quickly dispersed, everyone hiding inside their houses.

At the city gate, more than a dozen soldiers from the security regiment stared blankly at the helicopters flying overhead, and the roar of the helicopters continued to reach their ears like thunder.

"Boss, what the hell is this?"

"If you ask me, who should I ask? But I have a feeling that the person who comes here has bad intentions."

"Then we want to fight?"

"Hell yeah, if you're going to die, don't take us with you. If it's really the Restoration Army coming this time, we'll just drop our weapons and surrender. Do you understand?"

Under the surveillance of the Double-Edge armed helicopters, the Nighthawk transport helicopter group landed one after another in four directions of Xiurong County.

Fully armed soldiers jumped out of the side hatch and quickly became alert.

The airdrop process was very smooth, and the process of taking Xiurong County was also very smooth, without any obstruction.

The fall of Xiurong County caused a huge uproar in the Jinyang Governor's Office.

"What? Xiurong County was lost? Xiurong County is located in the hinterland. How did the Fuxing Army get here?"

This news was undoubtedly like a bolt from the blue, making Fu Changqing feel very disappointed.

Xiurong County is located behind Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass, and also controls the Xizhoushan line, making its location extremely critical.

However, since this place is located in the hinterland, no troops were sent to garrison there.

The occupation of this place not only meant that the defenders of Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass were caught in a two-pronged attack by the Fuxing Army.

It also meant that the transportation line between Jinyang and the front line was cut off.

"Immediately mobilize the troops to retake Xiurong County. We must not lose this place."

Fu Changqing also felt the seriousness of the situation.

The troops of the two temporary divisions set off by train towards Xiurong County.

At this time, the helicopter group had left Xiurong County and returned to the helicopter base.

They will carry the second batch of troops to Xiurong County.

60 Nighthawk transport helicopters can carry 720 soldiers at a time, which is almost the size of a battalion.

It took two hours to go there and back, and half an hour to inspect and refuel.

It takes about two and a half hours to transport about 700 soldiers to Xiurong County.

However, the transportation efficiency was still a bit slow, so the Air Force's 1st Airborne Division was dispatched.

A large group of transport planes and gliders, large enough to cover the sky and the sun, appeared in the sky above Xiurong County.

White nylon parachutes opened in the air and floated down.

The Air Force dispatched more than 200 C-47 and C-54 transport aircraft to transport the entire airborne division's personnel and equipment at once.

The Air Force's transport aircraft force is already very large.

There are four mixed transport aviation brigades, with a total of nearly 4 aircraft.

Three of the brigades are on the First Air Force side, and the other brigade is on the Second Air Force side.

Now that Xiurong County has been captured, there is naturally no risk in this airborne operation.

When the 1st Airborne Division landed, the division commander Wei Gang mobilized the st Regiment to Xizhoushan and built a line of defense there to block the troops from Jinyang.

He will lead two regiments of troops to launch an attack towards Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass to assist the front-line troops in combat.

"Woooooooo..."

On the Tongpu Line railway, a train roared and sped along the tracks.

This train was carrying soldiers from the Jinyuan Army, and in front of the train was Xizhou Mountain.

After crossing Xizhou Mountain, they can see Xiurong County.

However, the Jinyuan Army did not seem to have learned their lesson, or they ignored the existence of the Fuxing Army Air Force.

Twelve P-12D Mustang fighter planes swooped down with a roar, and rockets whizzed out from under their wings.

The flames enveloped the military train in an instant.

In the violent explosion, the train rushed off the track like a wild horse.

However, the Mustang fleet did not give up the attack, but instead poured all its ammunition into this military train.

The Jinyuan army on this military train suffered heavy casualties.

The daytime is the world of the Fuxing Army. If they want to go to Xiurong County, they still need to get through the Air Force.

After the 1st Airborne Division landed, there were no surprises in the battle situation.

And on another railway, there was also a train running.

On this train was a Fuso soldier.

They supported Jinyang much faster than Ryosuke Hashimoto had promised.

This also shows the urgency of the Fuso people.

(The bombing will begin in the next chapter, and the plot here will end soon.)
