my bright sword career

Chapter 561
Rao Yan Xishan, who has been up and down for most of his life, was confused by the news and stammered: "Gao...Gao Hongming sent bombers to bomb all the Japanese airports? Doesn't that mean that from now on, No air support for the Japanese for at least a few months?"

Among the generals of the Jinsui Army, Sun Chu can be said to be a person who has studied aircraft. After hearing this, he nodded and said: "It is certain that within at least three months, the Japanese army in Shanxi and even the entire North China will lack air support."

Yan Xishan sighed lightly, with a tone of emotion and envy in his tone: "This little fellow of the old man insists on asking for it. The wings of this young eagle are so hard."

Compared with Yan Xishan's emotion, Wang Jingguo saw another level: "In my opinion, the Eighth Route Army is the real good luck. It is no wonder that they dare to release bold words to attack Taiyuan because they can get such unsparing support from Gao Hongming." .”

Zhao Chengshou hesitated and said: "But what if this is just a cover for the Eighth Route Army? Its purpose is to force us to join it, and let us take the chestnuts for them. We have to guard against it!"

"Choose chestnuts from the fire?" Yan Xishan snorted softly, "But do we have any other choice?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone fell silent.

Yes, even if they knew that the Eighth Route Army was going to make them take advantage of the fire, do they have any choice?

This is Chi Guoguo's conspiracy. You know what he thinks, but you still have to jump into it.

Taiyuan is so important, it is the root of the Jinsui Army.

They couldn't imagine what would happen if Taiyuan fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

They are also too aware of the importance of Taiyuan. Once this city, which the Jinsui Army has worked hard for 30 years, falls into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, those power plants, arsenals, banks, and dozens of factories, large and small, located in Taiyuan will be destroyed. It will be used by the Eighth Route Army, and the strength of the Eighth Route Army will snowball in a few years.

Once the Eighth Route Army gained a firm foothold in Taiyuan, what would the Jinsui Army do?
Everyone shuddered at the thought of being kicked out of Shanxi while others occupied the magpie's nest.

For these old men who founded the Jinsui Army, if they are really driven out of Shanxi by the Eighth Route Army, which they have always looked down upon, they would rather die.

There was a moment of silence in the study, Yan Xishan sighed for a long time, "Forget it... This time the Eighth Route Army is carrying out an upright conspiracy, even if we are reluctant, we have to bite the bullet and fight with them, how about this?" ...Cuiya..."

"The staff is here!" Sun Chu stepped forward and straightened his chest, asking the commander to order!

Yan Xishan's gray eyebrows trembled, he gritted his teeth and said, "Go to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and tell them that I, Yan Xishan, are willing to gamble with them.

However, our Shanxi-Sui Army has a weak foundation and cannot exert too much force. This time we can only dispatch five infantry divisions, 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41, and three artillery battalions to support their actions.

In addition, the command power of our Jinsui Army must be in our own hands. This must be clearly explained to them, is it clear? "

Sun Chu replied loudly: "It's clear, the staff department will leave immediately!"

…………

In the 21st century, there is an adage in the military circle: Whoever controls the sky wins half of the war. In fact, the same is true in World War II.

The loss of air supremacy was extremely fatal to the Japanese army. The mixed Ninth Brigade and 86th Brigade, which originally had an advantage in Ping'an County, immediately felt heavy pressure.

"Woooooooo..."

Accompanied by the continuous and piercing sound of sirens, a Stuka dive bomber painted black was rushing down from an altitude of 2000 meters.

This ugly aircraft, in the shape of an inverted seagull wing, is making a hideous sound as it dives. This sound tells the infantry on the ground all the time that they are about to usher in a deadly bombing.

After the Japanese soldiers who were fighting fiercely on the ground heard this familiar and terrifying voice, many people began to panic, but more people raised their guns and shot towards the sky recklessly.

These weapons include Type 25 rifles, Type [-] heavy machine guns and several Type [-] [-]mm triple anti-aircraft guns.

Countless bullets turned the sky into an orange fire net, but this Stuka dive bomber was not afraid at all. It had already dived to a bombing angle of 138 degrees, and it looked like a vertical bomb to the people on the ground. The shells that fell were rushing straight down at a speed of [-] meters per second.

The extremely fast speed and small frontal area are undoubtedly extremely difficult for the intercepting side, and it is also an extremely difficult challenge for pilots to fly a dive bomber to conduct dive bombing at such a high speed and such an angle.

For the pilots sitting in the cockpit, watching the thick and boundless land getting closer and closer at a speed visible to the naked eye when diving, the fear in their hearts is indescribable. It is called the game of the brave by pilots. People without a big heart can't play dive bombers.

"boom……"

With a deafening explosion, a plume of smoke rose into the sky.

The explosion was so violent that the observation post more than 600 meters away from the Japanese army's position felt the violent vibration from under their feet.

"My dear, this bomb is too powerful, I bet it is at least a bomb of more than [-] kilograms."

"That's for sure. Since when have the people from the Liantai militia been stingy?"

The two staff officers said this softly, and their faces were filled with unconcealable joy.

Since the Japanese army lost its air power, the originally stalemate battle changed instantly.

The soldiers of the 770th regiment and even the entire 385th brigade suddenly discovered that air support suddenly became easier.

What they have to do is to let the communications soldiers of the Liantai militia in the far distance use the radio to contact the plane in the sky, and report to the other party the target they want to bomb, and then the air support they need will arrive within 5 minutes.

These air supports are either Stuka dive bombers, B25 medium bombers, or even a few P47 fighter jets.

Don't underestimate the P47 fighter. This thing is also nicknamed the Land Licking Demon. Its external hardpoints can even mount 1.13 tons of bombs or ten 127mm rockets.

Don't underestimate those rockets, often once a rocket is fired, within a few hundred square meters will instantly turn into a sea of ​​flames.

Not only that, the eight 47mm machine guns carried by the P12.7 are not used as decorations. After the bombs are dropped, the P47 can even face the ground to scrub the ground.

All in all, at certain times, this thing is even better than bombers.
