    That's right, it is 12 of the batch of b17 bombers that were exchanged for the technology of the Eighth Route Army and the United States that are flying towards the battlefield.

    In fact, they should have appeared on the battlefield yesterday, but the weather conditions were bad yesterday. The chairman and the boss were worried that there would be accidents due to the lack of experience of the pilots with eggshells on their heads, so they canceled the bombing mission.

    Today's weather conditions are good, and there are not many clouds in the airspace in northern Shaanxi and Shanxi, which is suitable for bombing devils, so the bomber regiment is dispatched before the sky is bright, and the two squadrons support the Central Route Army and the Ninth Division respectively.

    Leading the First Brigade to support the Ninth Division is Li Sihua, the head of the bomber regiment and the captain of the First Brigade. Just by hearing the name, you can tell that he is also one of the Chinese pilots who came from the United States.  Li Sihua was a bomber pilot when he served in the U.S. Army Aviation Force. Because of his high talent and hard training, he was promoted to the squadron leader of the bombing squadron by his brigade, which is rare among Chinese pilots.

    When the U.S. military recruited Chinese pilots to Yan'an, Li Sihua, who was about to be sent to the UK with the troops, signed up without even thinking about it. He wanted to fight for the blood flowing in his body.

    After arriving in Yan'an, under the recommendation of Gao Zhiyuan, who knew his abilities well, Li Sihua was appointed as the chief instructor of the aviation bomber profession. After the establishment of the Air Force, he was directly transferred to the head of the bomber regiment.

    At this time, Li Sihua, the captain of the No. 1 plane, said to the communicator: "Commander Chen, we are the first brigade of the bomber regiment of the first division of the Air Force, and we are ordered to come to provide air support to your department!"  "

    Chen Geng clapped his hands and shouted: "Thank you, comrades in the Air Force, we have been waiting for this moment for five years, now please let the little devils taste the taste of being bombed by the plane!"  "

    "Yes, I will never let you down!" Li Sihua agreed, reached out and switched the radio to the brigade channel, and ordered: "All planes immediately bombed the Japanese troops on the Japanese army in units of squadrons.  "

    "Yes!" There was a resounding answer from the fighters of each aircraft on the radio. The captains at all levels are also bomber pilots like Li Sihua, and many of them even flew the B17 before, and they are very familiar with operating these big guys. So  After hearing the order, the 12 B17s were quickly divided into three teams. Under the operation of those old birds, they descended and flew towards the Japanese army on the ground.

    At this time, the 37th Division, which had discovered that the huge figures in the sky were not their own planes, had fallen into chaos, especially those Japanese soldiers who were going to the pass for reinforcements.  Stepping down, wanting to find a cover to hide¡ªthis group of seasoned devils clearly knew that they were exposed in this unobstructed canyon, and they neither mixed with the enemy nor had any anti-aircraft weapons.  Priority attack and focused "care" for bombers.

    These devils guessed right. In the eyes of those bomber pilots, they are indeed a piece of fat braised pork, so all 12 B17s flew directly towards them, and they had already reached the top of their heads in the blink of an eye.

    Seeing the densely packed Japanese soldiers on the ground, Li Sihua, who was flying the plane in the lead, froze, and shouted into the communicator: "Drop the bomb!"

    The bomber heard the order without any hesitation, and suddenly pressed the button on the bomber in his hand.

    Rows of 150-kilogram aerial bombs slipped from the hanger, and under the action of the earth's gravity, they smashed down along the opened hatch.  The "bomber" has laid eggs, and it's still a ball.

    However, what they blast out is not clear egg liquid and golden egg yolk, but a series of blazing flames that can kill people!

    That's right, it's the flame!

    What the b17 dropped was not an ordinary aerial bomb but a napalm bomb!

    As the bomb landed and exploded, more than 100 kilograms of high-purity napalm inside the bomb body was ignited and quickly splashed around. With the help of the combustion accelerant, an area of ??nearly a thousand square meters and a height of several meters was formed in the blink of an eye.  huge firewall.

    As the shells continued to fall, walls of fire rose up on the ground one after another, like a large group of orange flowers blooming continuously.

    But what this scene brings is not admiration, but a miserable howl that resounds throughout the world¡ª¡ªwhen the Japanese soldiers within the range of the fire wall appear, they become a human-shaped pillar of fire, and their clothes, hair, and even  All exposed skin is burning.

    The napalm fragments attached to the Japanese soldiers are not only flammable but also extremely sticky. Once touched, they can¡¯t be shaken off. Many Japanese soldiers were burnt to the bone. They slapped their bodies franticallyThey even rolled all over the floor, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but this only made them stick to more napalm fragments.

    "How can the incendiary bombs used by the Chinese army be so powerful?" Nagano Yuichiro's jaw dropped as he watched the huge wall of fire rising several miles away.  It was put into use for the first time, and it had to wait until Li Mei "grilled" Tokyo in 1945.

    At this time, Nagano Yuichiro still didn¡¯t know that with the early release of napalm, the 37th Division accidentally created a history¡ªbefore the Tokyo military and civilians, it became the first to be attacked by this big killer  Japanese troops!

    With 12 bombers advancing.  Those walls of fire on the ground also turned into four fire dragons, galloping along the canyon from north to south, and more Japanese soldiers were swallowed by the sea of ??flames, turning into a pillar of personal fire.

    "Da da da da!" At this moment, the anti-aircraft firepower of the 37th Division finally opened fire - 6 Taisho 11th-year-style 75mm anti-aircraft guns and 12 98-type 20mm anti-aircraft guns erected at the southern end of the canyon.  Bombers in the sky fired chains of fire.

    You read that right, and I wrote it right, these 18 artillery pieces are indeed the entire air defense force of the 37th Division!

    Among the belligerent countries during World War II, the Japanese air defense force was the weakest, and most of its anti-aircraft guns began to be developed and equipped with troops after the war with the US military.  Why? Because there is no need!  Looking at the opponents of the Japanese army 42 years ago, one should understand that a large number of anti-aircraft artillery is a waste for the Japanese army.

    In addition, the reason why the anti-aircraft firepower of the 37th Division delayed firing until now is because the artillery had previously adjusted the anti-aircraft artillery to flat fire to prevent possible counterattacks by the armored units of the Ninth Division.

    I have to say that Bald Zuo is really good at paralyzing the enemy!

    Far away!

    Although all the anti-aircraft guns of the 37th Division fired, they were useless. These two old anti-aircraft guns made in the 1920s and 1930s could not pose any threat to heavy bombers like the B17.  The power of the 75mm anti-aircraft gun is enough, but the rate of fire is too slow. The rate of fire of the Type 98 20mm anti-aircraft cannon is fast. The problem is that the range is too short and the number is too small to form an anti-aircraft fire net.

    What is even more unfortunate is that this sparse fire net, which may be able to penetrate a large number of elephants, exposed the location of the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery positions.

    Looking at the pitiful dozens of anti-aircraft artillery on the ground not far away, Li Sihua smiled contemptuously, and said to the communicator: "Squadron 1, follow me to kill the enemy's artillery positions."  "Although these gadgets can't cause any damage to the b17, they are deadly enemies after all. It's better to eliminate them as soon as possible. More importantly, under normal circumstances, anti-aircraft artillery fire is used to guard key areas. Maybe the Japanese army  The headquarters is near the anti-aircraft position.

    So under the control of the driver, the four B17s adjusted their direction and flew towards the Japanese air defense positions.

    When the anti-aircraft artillery saw it, they panicked immediately, and fired shells into the air desperately, even the barrels were red.

    But the result is still useless.

    Although a few rounds of 20mm shells exploded around the b17, which fell to a height of about 2000 meters, and the broken shrapnel hit the machine wall and jingled, but this level of damage is not enough for the "sky fortress" with rough skin and thick flesh.  Said to be completely negligible.

    When the bomber first came to the sky over the 75mm anti-aircraft artillery position, the b17 used practical actions to demonstrate what it means to be accurate enough. Under the attack of dozens of napalm bombs, the anti-aircraft artillery position and the surrounding area of ??thousands of square meters  They all turned into a sea of ??flames, and the 6 guns, together with the artillery, all turned into molten iron and coke.  Then several other anti-aircraft artillery positions and heavy artillery positions were also baptized by fire.

    As the entire valley and the area around the valley entrance at the southern end turned into a sea of ??flames, the 12 B17s also ran out of "stock" in their stomachs, that is to say, it took them only about ten minutes to dispose of nearly 100 tons of napalm  The ammunition is still exhausted. You must know that in order to fill the huge magazines of these big guys, the ground crew worked hard for half an hour. This is really half an hour for reloading and ten minutes for bombing!

    With no ammunition left, there was no need to stay here anymore. Li Sihua and Chen Geng said hello and returned with the brigade.

    The dedication of this group of giant eagles has brought amazing results. Now the valley that is more than ten kilometers long has completely turned into a purgatory. All the grass and leaves have been turned into ashes, and the skins of the trees have also turned black.  Most of the Japanese soldiers who were still alive and well just now were turned into coke, some even burned their bones, and the rest were covered in pitch black, looking at the tragic scene with empty eyes, wanting to cry without tears.

    The only ones who are okay now are probably the Japanese soldiers in the brigades within less than one kilometer in front of the pass defense line, but they will soon be unlucky!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)The Japanese soldiers in the brigades within one kilometer are here, but they will soon be unlucky!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
