    The "buzzing" sound is very harsh, but to the ears of the little devils on the front line, it is like the Gospel of Mary, because it is the sound of the aircraft engine. Hearing such a sound on the battlefield means that their air fire support has arrived.

    Although China also has an air force, after experiencing the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, the strength of the Chinese Air Force has dropped to the extreme, and generally rarely appears on non-important battlefields.

    Although the Battle of Bengbu was extremely important in the eyes of the 13th Division and the 59th Army, looking at the whole of China, it was far inferior to the battle on the north bank of the Shandong Grand Canal. Therefore, most of the main combat power of the Chinese Air Force was transferred to Shandong, and the remaining  The lower part is used to defend Wuhan.

    When Lieutenant Colonel Muto and others looked up, they found that it was their fighter plane. The bloody sun pattern on the fuselage was so dazzling!

    "Yo Xi, it's our plane, our reinforcements have arrived!" Lieutenant Commander Muto shouted loudly.

    "WahahahahaLong live the Empire of JapanHis Majesty the Emperor blessreinforcements have arrived!"

    "Kill the enemy and give mereinforcements have arrived"

    The Japanese troops on the battlefield instantly became crazy as if they had been given a shot of blood.

    On the other hand, all the soldiers on the garrison position felt their hearts sinking. Although the air defense battalion shot down and injured 12 Japanese fighter planes in the morning, they also suffered considerable losses. More importantly, this time the little devils mobilized four  There are more than ten fighter planes, and their strength is about doubled than before.

    Under this disappearance, everyone is full of concerns about the next battle!

    In fact, there are only 12 anti-aircraft machine guns left in the air defense battalion. In the previous battle, three more were disabled by Japanese mortars.

    Originally, they were preparing to move their positions, but the sudden appearance of Japanese fighter planes disrupted their plan. If the air defense battalion continued to move their positions now, they could indeed avoid the Japanese shelling and ensure their own safety, but on the forward position  The 38th Division is in big trouble.

    If more than 40 Japanese bombers launch a bombing together, the huge firepower can instantly level the forward positions, and the defenders on the forward positions will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

    What¡¯s more important is that the Japs¡¯ infantry is a hundred meters ahead. With just a little chance, the Japs on the battlefield can rush into the trenches, with disastrous consequences.

    In view of this, Hu Zhong immediately shouted loudly: "Stop moving positions, everyone immediately shoot freely at the Japanese fighter planes, open fire!"

    The previous disastrous defeat of the Japanese aviation force did not attract the attention of the Japanese military's top brass, because the pilots of the six surviving fighters placed the responsibility for the defeat on Lieutenant Colonel Yamashita.

    Except for Lieutenant Colonel Yamashita himself, all the remaining pilots believed that the reason why they suffered such a disastrous defeat was entirely because of Lieutenant Colonel Yamashita's stupid order to drop bombs at ultra-low altitude.  Because this almost stupid order caused the fighter plane to leave the safe flying altitude, and also gave the supporter/that person a chance to shoot down the fighter plane.

    The Japanese Air Corps dismissed Lieutenant Colonel Yamashita from his position and prepared to take him to a military court. After all, the loss of 12 fighter planes in World War I was definitely considered a major accident, and someone must be responsible for it. As a frontline commander,  Nakasa Yamashita is the most suitable person to be the scapegoat.

    The new commander is named Shichiro Takeda, has a high military rank, and is the captain of the Kanoya Aviation Wing.

    After receiving the bombing mission, they immediately flew to the front line of Bengbu with thirty bombers and 12 attack aircraft, bringing almost all the Japanese fighters at Nanjing Airport.

    The purpose of the Japanese fighter planes this time was very clear, which was to avenge their previous humiliation and raze Bengbu to the ground.

    After arriving in Bengbu, Colonel Takeda issued a bombing order, and then Japanese fighter planes swooped down toward the Chinese defenders' positions on the ground.

    However, before they could finish dropping the bomb, they heard a rapid "bang bang bang" sound on the ground.

    Then the wing of an attack plane located on the right side of Takeda Colonel was hit. The bullet tore the wing of the fighter plane instantly, and the attack plane also dragged a faint black smoke towards the outside of the battlefield.

    "However, due to the damage to the wing, the speed and balance of the aircraft were affected. Before it could fly a few kilometers south, a loud "boom" was heard, and the aircraft exploded in the air.

    This was not enough. After the plane exploded, all the parts flew everywhere. The two bombers approaching the fighter plane were instantly hit by various parts and turned into hedgehogs.

    Without any accident, the two fighter planes somersaulted and fell to the ground. A few seconds later, two deafening explosions sounded on the ground.

    Colonel Takeda was shocked. This was just the beginning, and it turned outThree fighter planes were lost, which reminded him of Lieutenant Commander Yamada's quibbles in the morning.

    Lieutenant Colonel Yamada reported to the aviation corps headquarters that the Chinese army on the Bengbu front line was equipped with an advanced and terrifying new weapon. This weapon is a bit like an anti-aircraft machine gun. It not only has a long range but also has very strong penetrating power. For the Imperial Air Force  There is a fatal threat.

    "However, Lieutenant Colonel Yamada's remarks were regarded as sophistry by the aviation regiment headquarters, and no one believed it at all.

    The reason is also very simple. There are only two types of weapons and equipment that can pose a threat to fighter aircraft, one is anti-aircraft guns and the other is anti-aircraft machine guns.

    However, both anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns are very advanced weapons. Even if the Chinese army has them, they will give priority to equipping the Central Army. There is no Central Army unit on the Bengbu front line.

    What¡¯s more important is what Lieutenant Colonel Yamada said. The Chinese army is equipped with an anti-aircraft machine gun, but most people know the performance of the anti-aircraft machine gun. Even if it hits a fighter plane, it is difficult to shoot it down unless it hits an important part.

    Therefore, although every time a fighter aircraft attacks, it may be counterattacked by the opponent's ground forces, but the losses are very small. Generally speaking, it is very rare to damage one or two aircraft, let alone shoot them down.

    Of course, except for reconnaissance aircraft with weak protection capabilities, reconnaissance aircraft are generally made of wooden frames covered with cowhide. The protection capabilities are very weak, so it is understandable that they are shot down.

    But bombers and attack aircraft are different. The possibility of being shot down is very slim, let alone being shot down and damaging so many aircraft at once.

    But judging from what happened just now, what Lieutenant Colonel Yamada said may be true. The Chinese army may really be equipped with some new weapons that the imperial army does not know about.

    In view of this, Takeda Osamu reported his speculation to the ground command, and at the same time ordered the remaining fighters to be more careful, and ordered the third bomber squadron to immediately search for suspected targets on the ground and then eliminate them.

    At this time, the firepower of the air defense battalion on the ground continued. Although the little devils were more cautious and flew at an altitude of more than two thousand meters, so what, in front of the Type 75 anti-aircraft machine gun, this altitude was still within the effective range.  .

    I saw the machine gunners constantly aiming and shooting!

    The Japanese fighter planes in the sky were like big birds being hit, being injured or shot down from time to time.

    However, the little devil soon discovered the position of the air defense battalion, and immediately seven or eight fighter planes swooped towards the position of the air defense battalion.

    "Buzz buzz"

    The engine of the Japanese fighter plane appeared above the head of the air defense battalion. Although the soldiers of the air defense battalion were unmoved, they could not help but care about the approaching Japanese fighter plane.

    "Boom"

    "Boom"

    Two more Japanese planes were shot down and fell headlong.

    However, there was no room for the soldiers of the air defense battalion to cheer. They saw that the remaining five or six fighter planes had arrived above their heads. Then the belly bomb hatch doors of these fighter planes opened instantly, and huge aerial bombs fell from the sky and hit the air defense battalion.  position.
