The War of Resistance Against Japan: Special Operations Battalion Traverses Shanghai and Slaughters
Chapter 497 Critical Situation
Today, Longfei's air force has upgraded all its fighter jets to J-8.
The five J-8 fighters that took off encountered the twenty-five U.S. transport planes in just a few minutes.
However, these transport planes lacked radio communication equipment, making it impossible for the J-8 fighter jet to communicate directly with them.
The commander of the J-8 formation was an Air Force captain, who could only order everyone to change course and fly in front of the transport planes to make a warning maneuver.
The U.S. military transport plane pilots were terrified when they saw five fighter jets suddenly appear ahead in the darkness.
Because no escort aircraft were dispatched, these 25 transport planes had no defensive capabilities whatsoever; they were essentially no different from target drones.
Now, the US military transport aircraft fleet either has to end its mission and return home, or they will all be sent to military courts.
They could either grit their teeth and keep going, gambling that the enemy wouldn't shoot them down.
Ultimately, the US military transport aircraft formation chose to continue its advance.
As a result, the captain of the J-8 formation saw that the other party continued to fly after the warning, and since the other party was a transport plane, he did not think it posed much of a threat.
He then ordered the aircraft to be monitored and escorted, and immediately reported back to the base.
The base's duty commander was a colonel who had previously been just an ordinary soldier in a special operations battalion.
After receiving the report, he assumed that since they were not fighter jets, there was no danger, and presumptuously concluded that these US military transport planes were probably carrying out a transport mission to Alaska.
So he ordered the five J-8 fighters to continue tracking and escorting the enemy until they left Busan airspace, and then return to base to land.
As a result, the colonel's wrong decision almost plunged Long Fei into an irrecoverable situation.
Soon after, the aircraft from both sides entered Busan airspace. Five J-8 fighters kept watch until the other side flew out of Busan airspace before returning to base.
Unexpectedly, the US military transport plane immediately lowered its altitude and then turned around to launch a surprise attack.
All of this happened in just two or three minutes. By the time the radar operators of the Dragon Flame unit noticed something was wrong, the US transport planes had already dropped all five hundred paratroopers and were flying at full speed toward Japan.
The colonel commanding the base never expected that the US military would send airborne troops to capture Long Fei; his target was still the other side's transport plane.
He was preparing to take off again in a J-8 to check the situation when the radar operator reported that the enemy aircraft group had flown away to the southeast.
The colonel thought that since the plane had already taken off, there was no need to scramble the fighter jets again, so he immediately canceled the order, but ordered the radar operators to continue to monitor closely.
Gavin, with his five hundred men, was already descending slowly through the air, guided by the flashlight beams fired into the air by the spies on the ground.
Upon hearing the loud roar of an airplane engine from the sky, the monk jumped out of bed, grabbed a pistol, and quickly pushed open the door to leave.
After leaving the building, the monk went to the command post and ordered the guards outside to be on high alert. At the same time, he began to frequently check the situation.
Today's weather was also favorable to the US military; the sky was covered with clouds, and the ground was pitch black after the moon was obscured by the clouds.
What the monk saw first was not the American paratroopers descending from the sky, but the beams of flashlights shooting into the sky.
Although the monk didn't know there was such a thing as paratroopers, the flashlight beams made him realize something was wrong.
Since the command post had only assigned a guard company, the monk hurriedly returned to the house, picked up the phone, and prepared to call the nearest stationed troops, requesting them to immediately dispatch and rush to the command post to protect Long Fei.
The call couldn't get through, and the monk angrily slammed the receiver on the table, then opened the door and went out, intending to send someone to run over and notify them.
Unexpectedly, they bumped into Long Fei as soon as they stepped out of the building. Before the two could even speak, intense gunfire erupted outside.
Long Fei had also been woken up by the roar of the plane engine. He quickly got up and went to the window, opened it and looked out. He saw the beam of a flashlight.
Long Fei's first reaction was that this was a signal, and the beam of light was right around the command post. Anyone could tell that the command post was the target the other side was trying to signal.
“Monk…”
Long Fei called out but received no response. He hurriedly picked up the phone to call for backup, only to find that the call could not be connected.
Long Fei guessed that the other side must have cut the command post's telephone line, so he grabbed his gun, rushed out of the room and downstairs, only to run into the monk as soon as he got downstairs.
Upon hearing gunshots outside, Long Fei stepped forward, pressed the monk down, and quickly said something.
"Tell the brothers to hold on. If we can hold on for just ten minutes, the reinforcements will arrive."
After saying this, the monk nodded emphatically, then picked up his gun and rushed towards the command post gate, directing the soldiers to fight back fiercely.
Long Fei quickly went to the backyard of the command post to direct the battle there.
Gavin and his men all landed safely around the Longfei command post.
The spies who were there to meet him were brought before him and reported Long Fei's location.
Gavin immediately divided his troops into four teams, quickly surrounded Long Fei's command post, and then launched a strong attack from four directions, attempting to break into the command post and capture Long Fei in the shortest possible time.
Gavin knew very well that if these five hundred men wanted to survive, the only way was to capture Long Fei and make him their talisman.
Otherwise, these five hundred warriors, venturing deep into Busan, heavily fortified by the enemy, would only face certain death.
Gavin's troops were uniformly equipped with Thompson submachine guns and grenades, and each soldier carried ten magazines.
In close combat, their firepower was not much inferior to that of Long Fei's guards.
In particular, Gavin's side has an absolute advantage in numbers.
Fortunately, the monk had already ordered the guard company to be on alert, so although Gavin launched a fierce attack from all four sides at the same time, he was met with fierce resistance from the guard company soldiers.
Using flower beds, stone pillars, and windows as cover, the guards temporarily suppressed the enemy's attack and caused at least forty or fifty casualties.
However, a fatal problem arose at this time: the guards did not carry much ammunition, and after only two or three minutes of fierce fighting, they had used up most of their bullets.
On the other hand, Ha Wen's team only used two or three of the ten magazines each.
Seeing the enemy's heavy firepower, Ha Wen ordered grenades to be thrown, resulting in more than 20 guards outside the building being injured, several of whom were seriously wounded.
The monk knew the situation was critical and that things couldn't continue like this, so he ordered the soldiers inside the building to provide cover so that all the soldiers outside could evacuate inside.
But the soldiers outside the building were already bloodthirsty, and seeing many of their brothers injured in the explosions, they were unwilling to abandon these wounded comrades and retreat alone.
