Under the intensive rocket bombs, the Japanese army was like ants in a frying pan, enduring the suffering of intensive bombing.
Just after the first wave of bombing ended, the second aerial bombing formation of the Fourth Army also flew in this direction.
Like the previous bomber and fighter formations, they began to lower their flight altitude after arriving here, and at the same time poured the aerial bombs in the magazine and the rockets they carried into the area where the Japanese troops were. among.
As for the Japanese troops in the bombing area, whether they are ordinary soldiers or sturdy tanks and armored vehicles, they will basically be affected by such violent bombing.
The Japanese tanks and armored vehicles also began to shoot at the fighter jets and bombers passing by in the sky at this time, but they wanted to use their small-caliber heavy machine guns to attack these aircraft and bombers flying at an altitude of 100 meters. Any damage that is too big is a bit of a fantasy.
The roar of heavy machine guns on the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles is more like a kind of incompetent rage, a kind of venting of one's own anger.
However, such an attack is destined to be unable to stop the air forces of the Fourth Army from continuing to bomb them. It will just make the pilots who bomb them even more excited.
Many pilots have even begun to lower the altitude at which they dive, so that the rockets and aerial bombs they launch can be delivered to the enemy's area more accurately.
There are fewer and fewer Japanese tanks and armored vehicles that can fire.
Finally, when the last wave of bombings arrived, the roar of machine guns could almost no longer be heard on the entire battlefield.
Under such a fierce bombardment, the Japanese armored brigade was almost completely wiped out, with only seven or eight tanks and armored vehicles surviving.
Dozens of other tanks, armored vehicles, and various other armored vehicles were all turned into burning steel ruins under such fierce bombardment.
Meijiro Xiangzu picked up his telescope and looked almost desperately at the place where the armored brigade was bombarded.
Most of their anti-aircraft artillery units were abandoned on the road when they retreated from Shanhaiguan.
Now, only a very small part of their anti-aircraft artillery units still have combat effectiveness.
The enemy is now conducting asymmetric operations against their armored forces, but he has nothing to do.
Because they do not have effective air defense weapons, their aviation units cannot cause much damage to the enemy.
On the contrary, every time their air forces attack, it means a complete victory for the enemy's air forces.
In air battles with the enemy, they have never achieved any kind of success.
Even if they are not completely annihilated by the enemy, it can almost be their greatest victory.
The Japanese commander on the front line heard the intensive bombing from the rear.
It was not far from where they were, only three or four kilometers away.
Through the telescope, he could even clearly see that the armored vehicles and tanks that supported them were turned into a pile of scrap metal under the bombardment of rockets and aerial bombs.
He even saw a Japanese tank soldier with flames burning all over his body. He climbed out of the tank, ran wildly while burning, and finally fell slowly into the flames, like a lamp burning out his life.
This scene shocked the Japanese commander. The enemy's fighting also made him feel unprecedented despair.
The enemy¡¯s air force may not be such a big threat to them who have complete defensive positions.
Their air raid shelters and a large number of bunkers can provide protection to their soldiers so that enemy air forces cannot cause too much damage to them.
But the situation is different now, because their armored vehicles and tank vehicles, especially the moving tanks and armored vehicles, not only have huge targets, but also cannot avoid bombing and attacks from enemy aircraft.
The thing that makes them most desperate is that they have no way to deal with the enemy's air force.
"Report, the commander-in-chief said that the armored forces supporting us have been bombarded by the enemy and are now unable to support us.
However, he will send two additional brigades of troops to support us, hoping that we can resist for a while. "
At this time, his soldiers came over and said.
"okay, I get it."
The commander of this Japanese army is here?As he said that, he turned around and sat down on the wooden chair with some slump.
Beside him, several Japanese staff officers were still staring at the map, discussing how to use their few remaining defensive positions to withstand the enemy's attack.
Others threatened to launch a long-lived charge with the soldiers, using their warrior courage and bodies to resist the enemy's attack on their positions.
But such an idea is destined to be ignored.
During the battle with the Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army, Xiangzu Yoshijiro had discovered that their Long Live Charge, although it looked exciting, had almost no effect in actual combat.
Especially under the enemy's dense machine gun fire network, their long-lived charge is tantamount to consuming the enemy's bullets with their lives.
Therefore, after Yoshijiro Kozu led his soldiers to break out from the northeastern part of Shanhaiguan, he made it very clear that his troops should not carry out a mindless Banzai charge no matter what.
"Order our remaining troops to go to the front line. After our reinforcements arrive, if the enemy's offensive is defeated, their attack will not be so violent when they launch another offensive."
The Japanese forward commander said.
He knew that the Eighth Route Army opposite them had suffered heavy casualties just like them. At the same time, the physical and mental strength of the soldiers had also reached their limits.
The most important thing is who of the two sides can persist to the end and complete the final blow through gritted teeth.
This is also the time when the discipline and organization of the two forces, as well as the overall combat capabilities, are most tested.
"yes!!"
The current reserve forces of the Japanese army have all been deployed on the battlefield ahead. As for a brigade to support them, they are still on the way.
Although they were not far away, in the eyes of the Japanese frontline commanders, the front line was on the verge of collapse. If they were not careful, the entire front might be defeated.
He doesn¡¯t have much time now and must use all his strength to resist the enemy¡¯s uninterrupted fierce attacks.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a loud noise. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
