Just as the Japanese army was struggling to support Niangziguan and Xinkou, and Okamura Ningji was busy dispatching troops in Taiyuan, a sudden heavy rain brought a bit of coolness to the originally scorching weather.

In the first ten days of September, there was a large-scale rainfall in Shanxi. The torrential rain instantly turned the dry land into a swamp, and various tenacious plants rushed out of the ground.

A Japanese army was marching on a road. Most of these Japanese soldiers looked exhausted, and their military uniforms had already been wet by the rain.

This is a reinforcement army from Taiyuan to Niangziguan. After they came out of Taiyuan, they couldn't rest well for several days. The sudden heavy rain and the almost muddy road made the march a painful one. torture.

It's just that what they didn't notice was that above their heads, a small and exquisite Fi156 Baihe small reconnaissance plane was passing by them silently.

After several years of development and the unremitting training of the aviation school, today's Liantai Flying Corps is no longer as short of people as it was when it was first established. "It's not like there are only two or three big cats and kittens like in the beginning.

The Baihe reconnaissance plane has been loved by many pilots until now. The main reason is that this guy not only has a short take-off and landing distance, but also has high safety. The most important reason is that its sound is very small when flying. If the distance is very close, you can't hear the sound of the plane's engine at all.

"This is Rainbow Six. We found traces of the Japanese army. The size is about an infantry regiment. It is currently heading towards Niangziguan. The current position is one kilometer south of Qixiazhuang. The report is over."

As Bian Daling's observer and machine gunner, Xia Juping's professional level has changed from unfamiliarity to proficiency. Now she can even send telegrams skillfully while observing the ground situation with her eyes.

In less than 30 seconds, a telegram was transmitted to the command post at the rear along with the radio waves.

At this time, most of the Japanese soldiers carrying rifles looked haggard, and their military uniforms had already been wet by the rain. Since they set off from Taiyuan, they had been rushing along the way.

Due to the raging planes of the Liantai militia, the supply of the Japanese army also encountered difficulties. The Japanese army could only rely on the rice balls they brought with them before departure and wild vegetables picked temporarily. After eating for a few days, their eyes were green.

The only good thing is that the bad weather and roads in the past two days have also restricted the Huaxia people and their planes. As long as there is no threat of death from the sky, it is worthwhile for them to work hard.

What they didn't expect was that above their heads, a small plane painted in camouflage was quietly observing them from an altitude of 800 meters, and because of the heavy rain these days, there were a lot of clouds, and the sound of the engine was very small , They didn't notice anything on the ground at all.

Soon more than a dozen P-47 Thunder attack aircraft flew over the Japanese army under the guidance of the reconnaissance aircraft.

At the moment when the aircraft fleet approached the road, it was not until then that there were bursts of panic shouts on the road.

The Japanese soldiers who had been marching hard in the mud suddenly fell into chaos. Xue Shaogong, the leader, pressed the bomb button on the joystick. The fuselage of the P-47, nicknamed the Land Licking Demon, shook, and two 250kg cluster bombs left the fuselage. Straight to the ground, when pulling up the plane and flying sideways, while maneuvering to get rid of the anti-aircraft fire, the pilot also habitually glanced down the plane.

Looking down, I saw that two cluster bombs just landed in the middle of the road, and a series of explosive smoke rose in the middle of the road. Suddenly, broken trees flew across the sky, and the black smoke column from the explosion rose into the sky. At the same time, other The P-47 fighter jet of the plane has followed him and rushed to the ground target.

In just ten seconds, more than 60 cluster bombs weighing 250 kilograms exploded on the road one after another.

When the cluster bomb exploded in the air at 50 meters, it released more than 100 cluster bombs, and then the cluster bombs exploded in the air at 20 meters, releasing tens of thousands of steel needles, which flew towards the Japanese army on the road like raindrops. This force completely lost its combat effectiveness.

No... It should be said that the current road has become a purgatory on earth.

Countless Japanese soldiers were pierced to death by steel needles falling from the sky, and the few who did not die on the spot also fell into a pool of blood and wailed in pain. Even those who were riding in trucks and even a small number of armored vehicles were smashed into a sieve.

This "extremely cruel" weapon, which was banned by most countries in later generations, fully embodies its cruelty.

"boring!"

Xue Shaogong let out a long sigh after completing the bombing mission, and most of the comrades who came with him also felt this way.

Since the Japanese aircraft in Shanxi were emptied, the pilots of the flight corps no longer had any "fun" to talk about in supporting the army. Under the guidance of military personnel or reconnaissance planes, the Japanese army, which does not have much air defense force, carried out air strikes to kill and injure its vital forces as much as possible, while the ground troops took the opportunity to break into the Japanese army's positions to expand the results.

When a gust of wind blew away the smoke from the explosion on the road, the yellow muddy road had already changed its color, and the yellow mud was stained red and black by blood.

A few minutes later, when the last P-47 dropped the last cluster bomb, some wounded soldiers were wriggling in the mud on the blood-stained road, and there were some inconspicuous craters or dirt around them. Behind the slope, some surviving Japanese soldiers looked at the gloomy sky in horror, watching the group of demons above their heads go away.

Half an hour later, Neiji Okamura in Taiyuan received the news that the infantry regiment that was going to support Niangziguan was completely blown up by the planes of the Liantai militia. Get ready to face the Chinese in Taiyuan."

Adachi 23 rarely spoke. In his opinion, Neiji Okamura might have had this idea, but because of his face, he didn't say it.

Until the infantry unit he sent to reinforce Niangziguan was blown up by the planes of the Liantai Flying Corps, he finally let go of the illusion in his heart, and finally dared to confess to his subordinates what he didn't want to admit.

"Your Excellency, the Chinese also said that victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, and you don't have to be obsessed with the gains and losses of a city or a place. You are the commander of a 20 army, and you don't need to blame yourself for a regiment. "

"Remorse?"

Neiji Okamura snorted softly and fell silent.

Will he really blame himself for the cannon fodder that can be recruited by just a few thousand and five cents of stamps?

No, he was actually feeling uneasy about his upcoming fate, and even had a little fear.
