Chapter 851 Lu Hang Ma Lu!
Seeing that the nine Japanese planes actually chose to enter the battlefield from the south, Cheng Tieshou's eyes almost fell out of his eyes.
He thought about many scenarios. He thought about the Japanese aircraft not caring about ground firepower, and leaving after dropping the bomb. Hello, me, everyone. He also thought about the Japanese aircraft entering the battlefield from the north, and the terrifying airborne 7.7mm machine guns would be deployed in three infantry battalions. He left a scene of tragedy on his position; but he did not expect that the Japanese army would enter the battlefield from the fire area of his 2nd artillery company.
This little devil has his forehead squeezed?
The shooters of the 2nd Artillery Battery looked at the Japanese fighter planes that jumped down from the high altitude, holding on to the handles of their guns and taking aim with the crosshairs. It was hard not to make comments like this.
Of course, this is from the perspective of the shooters of the 2nd Artillery Company. In fact, from the perspective of the actual battlefield, Captain Ono entered the battlefield from the south. He could not only observe the effect of the just-bombed 'artillery position' more closely, but also have enough distance to allow fighter planes to attack the Chinese army on the main battlefield at a suitable height. , which can give the greatest help to the Japanese infantry on the main battlefield. There is nothing wrong with this choice.
The reason why he made such a choice was because when they just bombed important targets such as the 'artillery position', the Chinese army did not counterattack at all. This made him conclude that the Chinese army actually did not have much ground-to-air firepower. Just like most of the Chinese troops they encountered.
Because no one would give up their artillery so easily, not even the Imperial Army.
Nearly all successful soldiers around the world have one characteristic, which is to be extremely sure of their own judgment and to execute it resolutely.
So, there are only a few successful people!
Captain Ono's determination was not wrong, but what was wrong was that he took Lieutenant Sasaki with him, who was full of unlucky attributes, even though the guy had already accepted the order and returned home happily.
Captain Ono is the commander, so he is in the second group and belongs to the central command type.
The first group of fighters entered the battlefield about 1,000 meters ahead of his 96 fighter. Just when his fighters dived down to 600 meters before reaching his prescribed altitude of 400 to 500 meters, the sparks shining on the ground stung the windshield. Eyes behind glasses.
“Free fire, all machine guns, give me a shot!” Cheng Tietshou's order before stepping on the machine gun pedal was simple and rude.
At this time, a DER tactic was used. The Japanese plane swooped down, and the pilot's hand was on the machine gun trigger. The straight-line distance between the two sides did not exceed 800 meters.
The ground and the air are like two teams of cavalry confronting each other in ancient times. There is nothing fancy about it. They pick up their lances and compete!
Whoever pierces the opponent's body with the gun first wins!
The Sulotong machine gun emptied the bullet plates of ten bullets in one go. The ammunition soldier on the side quickly inserted the prepared bullet plates again. Then, Cheng Tieshou stepped on the pedal again.
The 20mm machine gun manufactured in Sweden trembled violently, firing shells as thick as cigars into the air, drawing terrifying trajectories in the long sky.
This kind of projectile endowed with strong kinetic energy may not be comparable to 'grenades' that can explode and kill such as infantry guns and mountain cannons, but if it is shot into the human body, it will basically end up falling apart. Even a 10 mm steel plate can Pierced with one blow.
As far as the fragile skin of the 96 fighter jet is concerned, the warhead can easily tear a hole the size of an adult's fist. It does not require a bullet plate to hit all ten shells. Just one or two rounds, and the 96 fighter jet will be happy.
The key is that there are two such machine guns in the 2nd gun company, and in order to increase the firepower intensity, the two machine guns are only 30 meters apart, and an MG34 with a fire rate of up to 1,000 rounds per minute is added in the middle.
This thing that the Germans tinkered with is simply incomprehensible in this era. It has a rate of fire that is twice that of an ordinary heavy machine gun. It is almost similar to the Phalanx machine gun of the future. It only takes ten seconds to eject 150 projectiles. .
Facing the sudden burst of bright shells, the three leading Japanese planes were absolutely stunned at that moment.
What about the fact that the Chinese did not have surface-to-air firepower? what is this?
However, the three Japanese pilots were well-trained. Even in a dazed state, they still instinctively aimed at the area in front of them where the bombs were blooming, pulled the machine gun trigger, and then slammed the rudder.
Without any discussion, the three Japanese planes, which were no more than 50 meters apart, all turned right in unison. This staggering level of tacit understanding cannot be developed in a day or two, and the cooperation is very skilled.
Three tongues of flames plowed a trace visible to the naked eye on the ground, which was seventy or eighty meters long. Several bullets even hit the steel shield of the machine gun where Cheng Tietsou was, making a clanking sound.
It's just that the power of the 7.7mm machine gun mounted on the nose of the 96 fighter plane is no problem for hitting infantry, but it is much worse for slightly stronger fortifications.
Cheng Tieshou's expression remained unchanged, and he still aimed at the Japanese aircraft, which was skilled in dodging ballistics, and shot his second bullet into the air.
The two Sulotong machine guns are the most powerful anti-aircraft equipment of the 2nd Artillery Company, but they are also the shortcomings of the 2nd Artillery Company. After being supplemented by the secret arsenal of the Xuzhou Northeast Army, other types of ammunition are extremely sufficient for the four-row regiment. The Tusu Luotong 20mm machine gun still fired one round less.
The reason why Cheng Tieshou personally took on the role of shooter again was not to show off as a hero, but because he was worried that his subordinates would empty out the last inventory in one go.
After all, the Four Lines Regiment is still hundreds of kilometers away from its destination. There may be a need for air defense operations on the way. Without these two machine guns, the anti-aircraft range of the Maxim heavy machine gun with a modified gun mount can be It's very limited.
The Iron Tou Company Commander, who is well-known in all four regiments, is naturally extraordinary.
From the time when the Japanese troops entered a low altitude of 1,000 meters away to when the Japanese machine gun bullets hit the steel shield, it only took a mere 10 seconds. However, Cheng Tietsou fired 20 bullets, and at least two of them hit the Japanese plane. .
A Japanese plane that veered crazily to the right was emitting thick white smoke and its speed dropped sharply. It should be that the plane's engine was hit and malfunctioned!
Fortunately, although the performance of aircraft of this period is far inferior to that of future jet aircraft, the simpler the structure, the more resistant it is to manufacturing, which prevents it from losing power immediately. The 96 fighter is like a small aircraft with injured wings. The bird flew over the 2nd Artillery Company at high speed and struggled to escape due north.
The three anti-aircraft positions of the 2nd Artillery Company did not chase and shoot the three Japanese planes. It was not that they did not know how to beat up the drowned dogs, nor that they did not know how to chase the poor bandits, but because they did not have time. The second wave of fighters led by Captain Ono Already coming roaring.
Captain Ono was filled with fear and anger, mixed with a bit of joy. What was scary was that the Chinese could endure this and watched their artillery positions being destroyed without making any counterattack. They did not attack the fighter fleet until they reached low altitude. Counterattack, in theory, is the tactic that has the best chance of effectively attacking his fleet; angry, his judgment on the Chinese was wrong, causing one of his three fighter planes to be damaged; and happily, However, the Chinese's deliberate efforts could only damage one of their own fighter planes. Their combat power is actually limited, at least, it is far from their previous frightening forbearance.
Regarding this point, Captain Ono has a very clear mind. In order to strengthen the heavy firepower of the infantry battalion in the expanded Four Lines Regiment, both Pang Hai's 1st Artillery Battery and Cheng Tietshou's 2nd Artillery Battery have deployed at least half of them. The combat effectiveness of the backbone squad leaders and veterans of the First Army has weakened a lot compared to before.
Just like the current 12 heavy machine guns of the 2nd Artillery Company, except for the shooter, who is a veteran, the other observers and ammunition handlers are novices. With this sudden war, the shooting level is naturally much worse than before. Otherwise, there would not be three Among the Japanese planes, Captain Tietou alone opened the attack and wounded one.
Such a result of the battle, not to mention that Captain Ono had a chance to attack the Chinese army's air defense positions. Cheng Tieshou himself was also very angry. Since he served as the commander of the fire support company, when had he stretched his hips like this?
"Spicy bastard, pass on my order. If you don't shoot down a stupid plane today, everyone in the company will not have dinner for me. It will be embarrassing and will be thrown into grandma's house." Cheng Tieshou pointed the muzzle of his gun again. The second wave of Japanese planes that were about to pounce on them roared angrily.
As if to appease Captain Tietou's anger, a loud bang was heard not far away. Many officers and soldiers of the 2nd Artillery Company looked back and saw flames shooting into the sky hundreds of meters away. It turned out that the damaged Japanese plane hit the ground.
However, that is really not the credit of the 2nd Artillery Company, but the results of the Qian Dazhu Infantry Company.
Or perhaps, Sasaki, the unlucky child's 'Katsumi' attribute has struck again.
The damaged Japanese aircraft just focused on escaping, but forgot one thing. He was flying over the main battlefield. What's more terrible is that due to engine failure, he couldn't pull up at all, and he was only more than 400 meters above the ground.
The metal belly was just exposed in front of the Chinese soldiers, and the speed was not very fast. It looked like a girl who had taken off most of her clothes and was desperately ogling the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Line Regiment.
For a group of big men who have already been attacked, do you think they can still bear it?
“All light machine guns, give me a hard time.” The young company commander Qian ordered decisively.
This was great. All the light machine gun shooters in the trenches were facing up, holding their light machine guns in the air and firing. The strong recoil almost broke the shoulder bones of the light machine gun shooters, but more than a dozen light machine guns also successfully shot them. 200 rounds of bullets were fired into the sky, where the speed had dropped to less than 180 kilometers per hour.
Fortunately, a few rounds of bullets hit the already damaged engine of the Japanese aircraft. This undoubtedly made the engine that could barely keep running worse. A few more pinches of salt were sprinkled on the bleeding wound. The aircraft stopped immediately and completely lost power. It entered a terrifying stall and crashed straight into the ground.
The Japanese infantry on the ground were in pain!
What was painful was not only the broken wings of the heroic aerial knight of the empire, but also the location where the out-of-control imperial war eagle crashed into, seemingly, the center of the battlefield.
To put it bluntly, it is the area where the Japanese infantry are located.
No one knows what the pilot of this 96 fighter plane was thinking in the last few seconds of his life. Anyway, he turned his body and the fighter plane into the last bullet and shot it towards
Shoot it at your colleagues who have numb scalps!
The explosion of a fighter plane slamming into the ground from an altitude of 400 meters was as powerful as a 75mm mountain artillery shell. At least five or six Japanese infantry hiding in the grass were blown away by the air waves.
Good guys, luck and strength allowed these Japanese infantrymen to escape the blazing rain of bullets from the Chinese soldiers and the shrapnel from the grenades that fell like raindrops, but they did not escape the "precision" collision of their own fighter planes.
Is this the legendary saying of "Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs"?
'The heroic aerial knight' At this moment, the cliff became the 'stinking shit' in the hearts of the infantry!
Colonel Ishiguro Sadazou in the distance could not see this scene because he was too far away, but this did not stop his left eyelid from twitching.
As the Chinese saying goes: His left eye jumped and he looked at the fleet of his own fighter planes leaping into the sky at low altitude. The Japanese Army Colonel was already filled with a lot of gloom, and his heart became even more gloomy.
"Baga! You're just watching the fun, I'm the real one!" Captain Ono, who was aiming at one of the air defense positions and firing wildly in the air, would definitely have cursed like this if he knew what a certain commander was thinking.
The 2nd Artillery Company had not been very lucky before. Two machine guns and more than a dozen machine guns fired wildly, and in the end Qian Dazhu's infantry company got a big advantage, but fate will eventually favor those who work hard.
Although the exchange of fire with the second wave of three Japanese planes led by Captain Ono lasted only less than 8 seconds, under the threat of no dinner, the Chinese shooters burst out with unprecedented determination and courage.
The sandbags used to defend against the blast of artillery shells were shot at least a dozen times by Japanese fighter planes. Several ammunition handlers were even hit by machine gun bullets and fell to the position covered in blood. However, their fearless shooting finally bore fruit.
The two 96 fighter planes on the left and right sides of Captain Ono were hit by bullets one after another. The fuselage of one of the fighter planes was densely covered with bullet holes that were even visible to the naked eye. The pilot howled desperately on the radio channel.
Not because of fear, but because of severe pain!
The fragile fuselage was unable to stop the ravages of metal warheads. If a camera was placed in the cabin, it might be possible to clearly see that the Japanese pilot was like a broken bag full of holes, covered in blood, but perhaps Because he missed his vital point and was shot in dozens of places, he couldn't die for a while and could only cry out in pain.
The man survived, but the fighter plane could not hold on any longer. The fighter plane, riddled with bullet holes, continued to descend, and finally plunged into the Bi River, causing a cloud of water to rise into the sky.
The other damaged fighter plane had previous experience. It turned on the rudder desperately and fled toward the edge of the battlefield. The thick white smoke trailing behind the fighter plane was shocking.
“Everyone evacuate!” Captain Ono gave the order over the radio with a heartbroken voice.
Then, after passing over the air defense position, it pulled up as hard as possible, jumped to an altitude of 1,000 meters, and left without looking back.
At that moment, Captain Ono finally understood the truth clearly: as long as he gets close to Sasaki, no matter whether he is there or not, he will definitely defeat the enemy.
Now only two people are dead and one is injured. If the battle continues, think about the ending of the New Year's Day incident where only Sasaki survived among the 12 fighter planes. Captain Ono felt a sudden chill in his crotch, but Sasaki is still alive!
The remaining three Japanese fighter planes received the order and did not jump down from the altitude at all. They passed directly from the right wing of the battlefield, accompanied by the still smoking friendly aircraft, and left the battlefield at high speed.
How majestic you were when you came, how embarrassed you were when you left! The Japanese aircraft fleet interpreted this sentence to the extreme.
However, after the war, this military order was regarded by the Army Aviation staff as the wisest decision of Captain Ono. Otherwise, based on the comparison of the machine gun firepower of both sides at the time, it would have been good if half of the aircraft fleet participating in the attack survived.
Of the 9 fighters, the remaining 7 gradually turned into black dots and disappeared into the sky.
The 10 fighter planes that came in were useless except for blowing up several of our own people and splashing some water in the river to watch the fun.
But that was the last hope of the Japanese infantry.
The 14th Division is running towards an infantry regiment, which is still more than 40 kilometers away.
"Baga! Army, Air, Malu!" The Japanese infantry on the ground screamed desperately in their hearts.
The desperate roar of the Japanese infantry really kicked off the 2nd Infantry Regiment's complete fall into the abyss.
