After destroying the Japanese heavy artillery positions, all the artillery began to pour shells towards the 115th Division.

The 312th Regiment suffered heavy losses under the bombardment of bullets, artillery shells and rockets, and was ultimately forced to retreat in disgrace.

A regiment was responsible for attacking Hill 208, but only about 1500 people returned, with a loss of more than 800 people.

After only two battles, the 312th Regiment had suffered more than half of its soldiers killed or wounded.

Fortunately, the Japanese army was severely poisoned by the Bushido spirit.

Otherwise, with this level of casualties, the 312th Regiment would have lost its combat effectiveness long ago.

Major General Kawatani looked solemnly in the direction of Wild Wolf Valley and sighed, "For my 115th Division, this place is a meat grinder."

The surrounding officers fell silent after hearing this.

Now no one dares to be so arrogant as to think that they can defeat this independent regiment.

Their firepower is extremely fierce, and is only stronger than that of the great powers.

It is hard to imagine that the other side is just an independent regiment, while they are an entire division.

But they did not lose confidence because they still had a trump card.

"Contact Jinyuan immediately and request fighter jets to bomb Wild Wolf Valley."

"Contact the 3rd Tank Division and have them come over."

To be honest, the terrain of Wolf Valley is not suitable for the deployment of tank troops.

But Yoshio Shinozuka, who hated the Independent Regiment to the core, didn't care about all this.

He had only one thought, to gather the strongest force to destroy the Independent Regiment.

But as the chief of staff, he couldn't just ignore it.

So he let the 17rd Tank Division rest near Yangquan, and dispatched the 115th Heavy Artillery Regiment and the th Division to participate in the attack.

In his opinion, such power was enough to destroy this independent regiment.

But now it seems that he was overthinking it. The independent regiment had been hiding their heavy artillery.

Now he can only mobilize the 3rd Tank Division.

With the coordination of air and ground forces, even if the independent regiment cannot be completely wiped out, it will be enough to inflict heavy damage on them.

The 3rd Tank Division has more than 200 tanks and hundreds of armored vehicles.

Even on the Western battlefield, it is an armored force that cannot be ignored.

In this land, it is completely invincible.

Jinyuan quickly called back: "Fighter planes are on their way and will carpet bomb the Wild Wolf Valley. Ground forces should quickly organize offensive forces and seize the opportunity to annihilate the Independent Regiment."

Since fighter jets were needed in every place, Yoshio Shinozuka only had more than 140 fighter jets available for deployment.

When I heard that the 17th Field Heavy Artillery Regiment was destroyed.

Yoshio Shinozuka was like a gambler who had lost all his money.

He was ready to throw all his chips down and smash the independent regiment to death.

So he directly sent all the fighter jets that could be mobilized.

As a mechanized armored unit, the mobility of the 3rd Tank Division is unquestionable.

This time they directly dispatched the 3rd Tank Regiment, and at the same time the 115th Division will send a regiment to cooperate with the tanks in launching the attack.

In the opinion of the commander of the 3rd Tank Division, sending out a tank regiment was enough to show respect to this independent regiment.

A tank regiment has more than 70 tanks, and their tracks are enough to run over the bodies of every soldier in the independent regiment.

Naosaburo Okabe looked at the long line of tanks on the road and finally a smile appeared on his face.

At the same time, he looked at the sky with anticipation. Now everything was ready, just waiting for the fighter plane to arrive.

"What are the Japs doing now?"

At this moment, the Wild Wolf Valley was peaceful, so peaceful that everyone felt something was wrong.

This is not the style of the Japanese devils.

"They must be waiting for something. Given the character of the Japanese army, they will never give up their attack just because a heavy artillery unit is destroyed."

Zhao Gang analyzed at this moment.

"Fighter plane!"

"Fighter plane!"

Li Yunlong and Li Jingrong blurted out at the same time.

Zhao Gang was startled, and said with a serious face: "Whether it is or not, we must be on guard."

Li Yunlong immediately picked up the phone and contacted the artillery battalion.

"All artillery battalion guns moved and hidden."

Then he called Liu Cunzhi from the air defense battalion and said, "The Japanese planes are very likely to arrive. Immediately enter combat readiness and put all air defense positions on standby."

"Yes, leader!"

Then Li Yunlong looked at Li Jingrong again.

"Brother, the anti-aircraft battalion is equipped with machine guns and cannons. The threat to the Japanese fighter planes is limited. I have to rely on you."

Li Jingrong nodded and said, "Don't worry, I have already made arrangements. I will get them into combat mode right away."

He has distributed the remaining 20 Feinu-6 air defense missiles.

A total of 30 Feinu 6 air defense missiles are enough to support the air defense network above our heads.

It was just as they expected.

In less than an hour, a dense group of Japanese aircraft appeared on the horizon. Just one look was enough to make any unit in the country's scalp tingle.

"Oh my goodness, have the Japs sent out all their planes?"

Zhang Dabiao on the 208 high ground said with some palpitations after seeing this scene.

Then he looked at the 37mm anti-aircraft cannons on the high ground and muttered, "You guys need to be more powerful."

When the commander of the 115th Division, Heisuke Kawatani, saw the dense fleet of aircraft in the sky, a smile appeared on his face.

"Yoshi, the Empire's support has arrived. Today is the day the Independent Regiment will be destroyed."

The commander of the 3rd Tank Regiment, Nobita Uejima, curled his lips and said proudly, "Even without these winged creatures, our 3rd Tank Regiment can still take over the Wild Wolf Valley."

He was very confident in the chariots under his command.

Although the independent regiment showed impressive firepower, he was not intimidated.

He would let the independent regiment know how powerless these light firepower would be when facing armored steel.

If he knew the configuration of the independent regiment's recoilless rifle, he would definitely not be so confident.

This was the case with every Japanese unit that came to deal with the Independent Regiment.

They are often very arrogant.

Only after encountering a setback in front of the independent regiment did we realize how powerful this independent regiment was.

When approaching the sky above Wild Wolf Valley.

One after another, the Type 1 fighter planes from the Kwantung Army took the lead and began to dive.

The bomber group behind also began to descend.

They also knew that the independent regiment had good anti-aircraft firepower, but it was mainly based on anti-aircraft machine guns.

However, these anti-aircraft firepower were nothing to them.

"Fire!"

When one Type 1 fighter plane after another began to approach at high speed, the anti-aircraft positions on the high ground outside the Wild Wolf Valley immediately opened fire.

One after another, 14.5mm large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns began pouring fire into the sky.

The experienced Japanese pilots were not afraid at all after seeing this scene.

Instead, he used his skilled techniques to dodge left and right in the anti-aircraft fire network, as if dancing on the edge of a knife, and played with the ground firepower in his hands.

"These foolish fellows think they can deal with the Empire's new fighter planes just by equipping them with a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns. They are simply frogs in a well."

The ace pilot of the 11th Flying Squadron of the Kwantung Army nimbly dodged the incoming anti-aircraft machine gun ammunition and immediately mocked.

Suddenly he saw more than ten clouds of smoke rising from the ground.

In less than two seconds, the smoke in his pupils was getting closer and closer.

"This isn't smoke. This is a cylindrical shell. Why is there smoke coming out of the tail of the shell?"

Before he could react, the advanced Feidun-6 air defense missile directly hit her plane.

"boom!"

A ball of fire exploded in the sky, and countless planes flew around randomly.

The thin-skinned Type 1 fighter was directly hit and disintegrated in mid-air.

This ace pilot of the Kwantung Army shot down more than 10 Russian fighter planes in the Battle of Nomonhan.

He was killed in the explosion of the Feidun-6 air defense missile.

Each Feinu 6 air defense missile is like a poisonous snake.

They shot down the fighter planes that were locked on them one after another.

No fighter jet can escape the lock of the Feidun-6 air defense missile.

Even if they dodge the first attack, the missile will still turn and stick to it until it hits it.

"What kind of weapon is this?"

The captain of the 12th Flying Squadron of the Kwantung Army expressed his doubts before his death.

Not only him, all the Japanese pilots who saw this scene had this question.

"Pull up, pull up!"

Although they didn't know what kind of weapon it was, the best way was to move away.

One after another, the Japanese fighter planes that were preparing to dive changed their positions and climbed.

In order to reduce weight, many Japanese fighter planes simply dropped all the bombs under their wings and bellies.

Countless bombs directly bombed the lonely place.

But they will not give up bombing Wolf Valley.

"Fighters draw fire, bombers rise to 3000 meters and drop bombs!"

After seeing this scene, the command aircraft issued the latest order.

The fighter jets began to accelerate, passed through the air defense network, and began to circle over the Wild Wolf Valley, intending to harass it.

However, the anti-aircraft soldiers scattered around did not pay attention to these small actions of the Japanese army.

He raised the Feinu 6 individual missile launcher in his hand again.

"Whoosh..."

One after another, the Feinu-6 air defense missiles roared into the sky.

Aerial torches formed by Japanese fighter planes appeared in the sky again.

Faced with modern high-tech air defense missiles, these fighters have nowhere to hide as long as they are within the range and altitude.

Although the Feidun-6 air defense missile has a firing altitude of only 3500 meters, at this altitude, what other fighter jets besides bombers can pose a threat?

After one wave of salvos, the Japanese army lost more than 30 fighter planes.

And this number is still rising.

These once terrifying fighter jets have now become harmless targets.

However, the Japanese fighter planes are not vegetarians either.

There are still some traces left when the anti-aircraft missile was launched.

When they discovered it, they swooped down and attacked with aircraft machine guns.

However, at this time they often become the target of concentrated fire from ground-based air defense firepower.

The anti-aircraft battalion also has dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, and its low-altitude interception capability is unquestionable.

So their dive was ineffective and resulted in even greater losses.

But they also completed the task of covering the bomber groups.

The slow-moving bomber group finally arrived over the Wild Wolf Valley.

At this moment they are flying at an altitude of 3000 meters.

For a horizontal bomber in this time and space, dropping bombs at this altitude really depends on luck.

Otherwise, dive bombers would not have become so popular in World War II.

"Aim for the bombers. Don't let them get close enough to drop their bombs."

"All of you, come on and beat these annoying fighters down for me."

The one in charge of air defense operations in the Deep Blue Guard Brigade is Sanhu.
