Chapter 312 This surprise is so scary!
"Commander, most of the positions in the city are now in the hands of the Japanese army. The battalions and companies have suffered heavy losses and can no longer hold on. If there is no reinforcement, we may be wiped out." In a hidden position in Wuzhou City, a staff officer said to Wang Tianfang while holding back his grief.
Wang Tianfang pretended not to hear and felt very sad. At this time, there were less than a thousand people left in his regiment.
At the current rate, it will probably be gone in three to five days at most.
Previously, it was because the Japanese army was caught off guard that a company was able to wipe out an entire Japanese squadron.
But the Japanese army, which was advancing steadily, began to demonstrate strong individual qualities, causing his troops to suffer heavy losses.
"Reinforcements?" Wang Tianfang smiled bitterly and said nothing. Reinforcements?
Forget it.
Moreover, the Japanese troops outside the position seemed to be blood-thirsty.
More than a dozen special bombs were thrown.
It was better that they had gas masks, but those civilians who didn't have gas masks either fled or were gassed to death.
It is obvious that the Japanese army is desperate to capture Wuzhou City.
"You damned Japs, if I had poison gas bombs, I would definitely let you experience what it feels like to be covered by them." Wang Tianfang said with hatred.
But at this time, he didn't think too much about it. As long as there was a regiment of reinforcements, it would be enough. With the cooperation inside and outside, they would be able to wipe out the Japanese army.
"Commander, when will your reinforcements arrive? Do you really want to watch us being wiped out in Wuzhou City?" Wang Tianfang felt gloomy as he looked at the battlefield ahead that was filled with smoke and artillery fire.
I looked up at the gray sky again, feeling very depressed.
"Tell all the battalions and companies that no matter how critical the situation is, you must hold on. Reinforcements will be here soon."
At this time, Wang Tianfang could only deceive his subordinates and tell them that there were reinforcements.
Otherwise, if you despair, you really won't be able to hold on.
After all, collapse only takes a moment. Once they learn that there is no reinforcement and they have to defend Wuzhou City to death, these new recruits will definitely collapse when they learn the truth, which will lead to defeat.
At this time, a signalman saw the green light on a channel that was not often used in front of the radio, and he quickly took it over: "Hello, I am from the 175th Regiment of the th Division. Who are you? Who are you?"
At this time, a steady voice sounded: "175th Regiment, 175th Regiment."
"I'm Zhang Fakui, I'm Zhang Fakui, is Wang Tianfang here? Is Wang Tianfang here?"
Although the sound was not very loud, it was like a thunderclap across the command center, and everyone's movements became sluggish because of this small sound.
Wang Tianfang, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment when he heard the voice, then he reacted.
It turned out to be his old boss who called him.
Are they going to send reinforcements to support him?
Now someone is calling him, could it be that they are here to support him?
Thinking of this, Wang Tianfang felt a surge of heat in his heart. If this was true, then the 175th Regiment could be saved.
"Hello, Commander Zhang. I'm Wang Tianfang from the 175th Regiment. I'm Wang Tianfang, old sir. May I ask if reinforcements are being sent to support us? The Japanese attack is very fierce now. My unit has suffered heavy losses. There are less than a thousand people left. The situation is extremely urgent. Please come to rescue us as soon as possible. Please come to rescue us as soon as possible."
Wang Tianfang's tone was very sincere, almost like begging.
Unfortunately, Zhang Fakui's voice made him feel a little disappointed.
"Wang Tianfang, don't count on reinforcements. There are no reinforcements for the time being."
"Ah?" Wang Tianfang's face turned pale instantly. Why did you call me if you can't provide support?
"Your task now is to defend Wuzhou City. Your division commander Zhang Deneng is leading his troops to raid Yangcheng. As long as we take Yangcheng, all crises will be resolved." Zhang Fakui continued.
Hearing this, Wang Tianfang showed a helpless expression on his face.
No wonder there has been no reinforcement until now, it turns out they were going to launch a surprise attack on Guangzhou.
It turns out that I was used to attract the Japanese army.
"Are you complaining in your heart? Do you think I didn't help you?" Zhang Fakui seemed to have guessed his thoughts and said immediately.
"You are so lucky, you don't know how to appreciate it. This is a good time to establish your prestige. Do you want to stop being the leader?"
"Work hard, fight this battle well, and defend Wuzhou City. The 59th Division is still short of a deputy commander."
After hearing this, if Wang Tianfang still didn’t understand the good intentions of his old commander, he would be a fool.
"Yes, sir, Tianfang understands." Wang Tianfang immediately stood at attention and said.
"Also, don't think that I am a fool to watch you die." Zhang Fakui seemed to remember something and continued.
"Hold on for another twenty minutes, air support will arrive immediately! Now I will tell you the radio frequency of the air support, and you will use this frequency to contact them later. Do you understand?"
"have you understood?"
Zhang Fakui repeated it again, fearing that he hadn't heard it.
"Hear, I heard it..." Wang Tianfang responded quickly.
"Listen carefully..." Zhang Fakui reported a series of channels and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Tianfang was still a little confused. When did the Fourth War Zone have planes?
Are we really on the same page?
Why do I feel like I am on earth and you are in heaven?
"Commander, will there really be air support?" someone couldn't help but ask.
If there is air support, it will be more useful than a division.
After all, compared with infantry support, air support is not as effective.
Look, the air support is here, so how far can ground support be?
At this moment, Wang Tianfang's head was buzzing and he didn't even know why.
When will there be fighter planes in the Fourth War Zone?
If there really was an opportunity to fight, we would have recaptured Guangzhou long ago.
Why has it been delayed until now?
But since Zhang Fakui said so, it must be true.
Thinking of this, Wang Tianfang spoke.
"The theater commander called me and he certainly wouldn't lie to me."
boom!
At this time, more than ten Japanese fighter planes were bombing indiscriminately above Wuzhou City. Black bombs fell from the bellies of these Japanese fighter planes in front of the positions, and clouds of black smoke and violent explosions continued to rise.
With the explosion, many recruits were unable to dodge and were taken away directly.
It was these planes that caused them huge damage in the past two days. Half of their casualties were caused by these fighter planes.
"You damned Japs, are you done yet? Still bombing? Bomb your grandma's grave." On the battlefield, Zheng Bei looked at the planes falling from the sky and couldn't help cursing.
There are less than fifty people left in his company, and at least dozens of them were killed by the Japanese planes in the past few days.
If it is a shell, the new recruits can hide in the bunker with the reminder of the veterans.
However, the bombs dropped by the fighter planes were so accurate.
A few bombings scared the recruits out of their wits.
Now those who remain are veterans who have fought in several bloody battles.
That’s why we can continue to fight the Japanese army.
"Captain, you should take a break. You've already cursed so many times." A soldier next to him reminded weakly.
After hearing what his subordinates said, Zheng Bei said nothing more, but still stared at the fighter planes in the sky.
On the other side, Major Jiro Higashino was looking at the battlefield in front of him where smoke was billowing with a smile on his face, feeling very satisfied.
"Yes, in a day at most, the position of the Chinese army will soon collapse. However, the fighting spirit of this Chinese army is indeed very tenacious, stronger than the troops we have encountered before."
"It is rare for a regiment to hold out until now under such heavy fire."
At first, Major Jiro Higashino was indeed annoyed. A squadron was just gone like that?
If this gets out, it would be so embarrassing.
You have to know that before this, a squadron could chase and fight an entire regiment.
Even when facing two groups, he could still escape unscathed. What was the result?
Everything was shattered here.
After fighting for a long time, Major Jiro Higashino realized that the opponent's fighting spirit was indeed very strong.
The position lost in the last second will be regained in the next second.
It can be said that they fought for every inch of land and fought very tenaciously.
Now, Major Jiro Higashino realized that he had wronged Captain Sasaki.
At the same time, they increased the intensity of the bombing and vowed to avenge Captain Sasaki.
"Captain, look, what is that?" Just when his subordinates wanted to flatter him and give him compliments.
I saw someone pointing in the distance and speaking tremblingly.
Major Jiro Higashino looked up and saw several silver figures flying from the north. They quickly flew to the side of their own fighter planes. Flashes of fire appeared, and two Japanese fighter planes were shot down immediately.
"What?" Major Jiro Higashino's brain suddenly froze.
what is this?
Chinese Air Force?
This is impossible!
This is absolutely impossible!
There are no fighter planes in the Fourth War Zone at all.
If he really had fighter jets, would he dare to attack Wuzhou City with just a battalion?
At this time, in the sky, Xu Baofu, who was allowed to fight, brought six fighter planes to the sky above Wuzhou City.
Three of them are P51 fighters and the remaining three are P40 fighters.
I have to say that Xu Baoqi's driving skills are indeed very strong.
With every move, a Japanese fighter plane was shot down.
You should know that in order to dig out Xu Baoyu, Cun Yunsheng spent a huge price.
And now the opponent did not disappoint him. With one move, a Japanese fighter plane was shot down.
"Well done, Captain, you shot down a fighter plane." The voice of my wingman came to my ears.
Because we had to rescue Wuzhou City, we did not bring any students out this time.
But the other team brought a lot of students.
The purpose is to train more qualified pilots as quickly as possible.
Since it was the first time that Xu Baoyu flew a P51 fighter in combat, he did not dare to be careless at all and was always cautious for fear of something going wrong.
However, his worries were unnecessary. The P51 fighter could be said to be the pinnacle of propeller fighters. Facing the Japanese fighter planes, it was a dimensionality reduction attack.
It's really difficult to get hit.
And getting hit isn't a big deal.
After all, it is an all-metal fighter, and it is difficult to destroy it with ordinary bullets.
"Da da da... da da da..."
Taking advantage of the victory, after shooting down a fighter plane, Xu Baofu once again controlled the fighter plane, came over a Japanese fighter plane, and then pulled the trigger.
Bullets from the four 12.7mm machine guns on the outside flew towards the Japanese fighter planes below.
boom!
Black smoke rose up instantly, and the Japanese pilot was riddled with bullets. The plane flew for a moment, lost power, and then crashed to the ground.
"Attention all units, find your targets and destroy all enemy aircraft."
After a successful attack, Xu Baofu immediately gave the order for a free attack.
"Team Two understands!"
"Team Three understands!"
After receiving the order, the six fighter planes immediately dispersed and began to rush towards the nearby Japanese fighter planes.
Da da da!
Da da da!
Da da da!
Since the P51 fighter is equipped with 6 12.7mm machine guns, its firepower is extremely fierce.
Facing the Japanese fighter planes, there was a massacre.
Unable to catch up with the enemy in speed and with inferior firepower, they could only flee.
However, it didn't fly for long before it was caught up and then shot down.
Rays of fire chased the fleeing fighter planes, and from time to time, one fighter plane after another was shot down.
After a while, more than ten Japanese fighter planes were all shot down.
Wang Tianfang below looked at the Japanese fighter planes being shot down in the sky with a dazed expression.
Originally he was still wondering how many fighter planes would come from the Fourth War Zone.
Out of trust in his old superior, he felt that since the other party called him, it must be true, but it was impossible for him to have too many fighter planes.
It would be good to have two or three fighter planes, but having a plane is good. Even if we can't defeat them, as long as we can harass the Japanese fighter planes and relieve their pressure, it's good.
As a result, when the plane appeared, he was completely dumbfounded.
As soon as he appeared, he shot down two Japanese fighter planes, and then chased and killed them.
Yes, it's a massacre!
Just like the big fish in the pond eating the small fish, it doesn't give the opponent any chance to react.
In just ten minutes, all the Japanese fighter planes that had been showing off their might had been shot down.
Wang Tianfang came back to his senses and immediately shouted happily.
"Brothers, this is our fighter, this is our fighter."
After hearing Wang Tianfang's words, the defenders who had come to their senses cheered loudly, and many officers and soldiers waved their arms excitedly.
At this moment, Wang Tianfang was so excited that he was about to cry. This was his first time leading troops into battle, and he encountered such a desperate battle.
These two days have made him extremely anxious.
Especially after hearing Zhang Fakui tell him that there was no reinforcement, he was even more dumbfounded.
The defenders in the city were extremely excited, while Major Jiro Higashino was staring at everything in front of him in amazement.
"Baga, what the hell is going on? How come there are fighter planes? Didn't they say there are no fighter planes in the Fourth War Zone? How come there are so many fighter planes? And they are so powerful? Are our fighter planes gone just like that?"
No one could answer Major Jiro Higashino's words.
Because they also don't know why there are fighter jets in the Fourth War Zone.
"Baga, what kind of fighter plane is this powerful?"
Looking at our own fighter jets that were originally showing off their might in the sky, they are now all gone.
Major Jiro Higashino knew that his hope of quickly taking Wuzhou was dashed.
But this is not the key point, it doesn’t matter even if we lose.
He wanted to find out whose plane this was.
There is absolutely no way that the Fourth War Zone has such advanced fighter jets.
"Immediately report the situation here to the headquarters in Yangcheng and tell them that an unidentified fighter plane has appeared in the Fourth War Zone." Major Jiro Higashino ordered.
"Hai!"
"Also, notify each squadron to pay attention to air defense."
All their own fighter planes have been destroyed, and the Chinese fighter planes will definitely turn around and attack them next.
After all, anyone who is not a fool would definitely do this.
