Chapter 284 Dimensionality Reduction Strike (Two in One for subscription and monthly pass)

When the sun shines on the walls of the low houses next to the Dagon airport.

The first to move was the Air Force Assault Group of the Expeditionary Army Group.

"Gao, I'm leaving, waiting for my good news. This time, I will have to shoot down at least two of the little devil's fighter planes before returning." Gao Jianwu's headquarters actually received Smith's departure telegram.

These international friends in the beautiful country are actually quite cute sometimes.

Gao Jianwu could imagine Smith's expression before departure.

At Dagon Airport, as Colonel Smith took off, fighter planes took off one by one, soaring straight into the sky.Then they lined up and flew over the Bo Valley battlefield, waiting for the arrival of the little devil fighter plane.

Almost at the same time, the Shanmana Lu Xingguo Air Brigade received the order to take off for combat.One after another, fighter planes flew to the coordinate area provided by Gao Jianwu.

Their combat mission today is to destroy the little devil's heavy artillery brigade.

It's just that the air force of the expeditionary force appeared over the battlefield.The fighter planes of the pilot regiment on the little devil's side have already started to take off to the Po Valley area, preparing for the battle.

The elite pilots from the Allied Forces are rushing forward one by one with their fighter planes. Even if the number of fighter planes of the little devils exceeds them by nearly double, these elite pilots of the Allied Forces have no fear.

The little devils who appeared in front of them were still flying old-fashioned Type 97 fighter jets.For the pilots of the Allied forces, this kind of fighter is simply rubbish. Compared with the Mustang fighter, there is already a generational difference in performance.

So Colonel Smith led 40 Mustang fighters and dared to appear directly in front of the little devil's pilot group.

Lu Xingguo and his flying brigade, according to Gao Jianwu's coordinate area, lowered their altitude and searched for the little devil's heavy artillery brigade within 20 kilometers east of the Xidan River.

After all, they still have a little idea in their hearts. Facing the elite pilots of the little devils, as a group of pilots who have just started, even if the performance of the fighter planes is much ahead, it is okay to siege, but if they single out the little devils pilots, they think It is more appropriate to leave this combat mission to professionals.

No one is capable in this regard. After all, their lives are not their own now, but belong to this team and this country.

They all knew how much it would cost to train a pilot now, and they would never throw away their lives so easily.

Fifteen Mustang fighter jets quickly swept dozens of square kilometers on the east coast.

"Boss, I saw it." On the public channel of the flight team, a pilot suddenly reported in surprise.

"Now my location coordinates are XX, XX."

"Received, on the 13th, please pay attention to keep the altitude above 2000 meters and hover on standby to prevent the enemy's anti-aircraft guns from attacking. Brothers, pay attention to the order. We will fly to the airspace on the 13th in a group of two to carry out bombing!" Lu Xingguo happily ordered.

With the pilots of the Allied Forces to block the fighter jets of the Little Devils Flying Division.

Lu Xingguo's flying brigade was basically in no danger in the air.

So Lu Xingguo lined up 15 fighter planes and began to search at low altitude. Along the target area commanded by Gao Jianwu, they quickly found the target.

After all, the target of a heavy artillery brigade is really too big, and Gao Jianwu has locked their area range, not to mention that they must have a powerful tractor convoy and a huge logistics support force to support them.

In this way, even if you hide in the woods, you can't hide it by covering the vehicle with branches.

What's more, an artillery position also occupies a large area, and the roads that the little devils need for heavy artillery are also very demanding. They can be found along the main road no matter what.

When Lu Xingguo rushed over, the little devil's heavy artillery brigade had just packed up the cannons and was about to move them.

"Brothers, I will attack first. Pay attention to the height of the dive, and don't let the little devil's anti-aircraft guns bite you." Lu Xingguo looked at the little devil's heavy artillery convoy on the ground, and began to lower his altitude and dive towards them.

While supplementing, he also directed the sequence of subsequent fighters. Fifteen fighters were in the air, and soon formed two ranks.

"Baga, hurry up, the anti-aircraft guns are ready to fire in anti-aircraft, and the enemy fighter planes are coming!" On the heavy artillery position of the little devil, a regimental commander, the captain, couldn't help being shocked when he saw the fighter jets roaring from the sky.

Quickly began to direct the anti-aircraft gunners who had just entered the marching state to re-deploy in a hurry, preparing for an air defense counterattack.

It's a pity that it's a little late.

Lu Xingguo swooped down first, seeing the little devil panicked on the ground, he simply lowered his altitude, directly lowered to below 500 meters, aimed at the anti-aircraft gun that the little devil was deploying, and dropped two bombs directly.

After two loud bangs, the four anti-aircraft guns of the little devil were immediately blown into the sky, and dozens of little devils who were serving the four anti-aircraft guns also turned into a pile of rotten meat and flew around.

"Hehe! Captain, you are really good, this time the little devil is in bad luck." Unit 2, following behind Lu Xingguo, saw the mess on the little devil's ground, shouted, and also lowered his altitude to face the little devil. The heavy artillery went away.

This time he played harder, and accurately dropped the bomb next to a heavy artillery at an altitude of less than 300 meters.

This time, the truck that was pulled by the heavy artillery was directly overturned to the ground.

The fighter planes aimed at the little devil's heavy artillery position roared one after another, some aimed at the anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns, and some aimed directly at the little devil's heavy artillery.

But no matter what, they dropped heavy aerial bombs on the position.

When the remaining anti-aircraft guns of the little devil finally deployed and began to shoot desperately, but they were not enough in number, a 12-gun brigade was basically disabled by Lu Xingguo and the others.

In addition, the hit rate of anti-aircraft guns against aircraft is extremely low, and there is not enough number to weave an air defense net. For a single anti-aircraft gun, it is basically a lucky draw if it wants to hit a fighter plane flying at high speed Activity.

But this time luck was not on the little devil's side, Lu Xingguo led the flying brigade to dive-bomb and straf the little devil's heavy artillery position non-stop, one after another heavy aerial bombs exploded on the little devil's heavy artillery position.

Although some pilots' bombing deviations were a bit large, dozens of heavy aerial bombs were dropped, basically covering the entire Little Devil's heavy artillery position.

In this position, no matter whether it is people or heavy artillery, there is no possibility of surviving under such heavy aerial bombs.

The little devils are a heavy artillery brigade, except for the logistics team who threw away their things and ran away, the rest of the cannons were basically killed on the ground. Many of the little devils really achieved jade smashing this time!
"Nani? The enemy's air force has attacked our heavy artillery positions?" General Kimura, who was in the forward headquarters of the little devil, couldn't believe his ears.

"Yes, Your Excellency General, 15 enemy fighter planes bombarded our heavy artillery position indiscriminately. According to the telegram they sent, our heavy artillery brigade was basically wiped out." The communication staff reported with his head down.

"Baga! It's so disgusting! What are the Ninth Flying Division and the others doing? Are these idiots using their fighter planes just for display?" General Kimura had a mouthful of old blood in his throat at this moment, but he couldn't spit it out, and couldn't swallow it. Going down, his face was flushed red.

"A large number of Your Excellency's Ninth Flying Division has dispatched the entire army, but they encountered the enemy's flying team and are fighting in the sky at the moment. According to the latest battle report, our situation is not optimistic. We have already had 10 fighters since the battle It was shot down by the enemy!" The communications staff reported another bad news.

"What about the enemy's battle damage, how many were shot down?" General Kimura asked.

"According to the report, the enemy has not been shot down so far." The head of the communications staff lowered even further.

"Baga! Poof!"

General Kimura finally couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood this time and spurted it out.

Although he didn't have great expectations for the air force, he didn't expect them to be so useless that they couldn't stop the enemy's attack at all.

Now the heavy artillery brigade is finished, and General Kimura's air dependence seems to be dying. How can General Kimura bear it.

"Your Excellency, we are in a very dangerous situation now." Chief of Staff Shimoda said with a dignified expression beside him.

"Without air protection and artillery support, the firepower gap between us and the enemy will be huge. According to intelligence, the expeditionary force group has at least 100 heavy artillery pieces above 105mm. So far, they have not appeared on the battlefield, but I dare Surely they are near us.

According to the previous battles, the enemy's use of artillery is simply superb. Basically, they use long-range artillery to destroy our defensive firepower one by one. There are 100 heavy artillery pieces above 105mm. After we lose the heavy artillery brigade, there will be no The method of restraint, then our troops will not be able to resist the enemy's artillery attack! "

Both Lieutenant General Shimoda Saku and General Kimura were from the army. Of course, they know the power and role of artillery on the current battlefield.At this moment, Shimoda pointed out the huge difference between the artillery of the enemy and our own, and General Kimura also had a bitter expression on his face.

"Shimoda-san, we still have two tank regiments. We order the artillery observation posts and scouts to find out the enemy's heavy artillery positions. We use the tank regiments to destroy them. This is our only chance." Kimura The general said in a low voice.

At this moment, they didn't know that the expeditionary army group used more than 100 long-range heavy artillery pieces this time, but more than 200 pieces.

It's just that the difference between 100 and 200 is not big for him now, and the fate of failure is already in front of them.

The news of the bombing of the heavy artillery brigade's artillery position was transmitted directly to Gao Jianwu's headquarters through the walkie-talkie.

"Everyone, the Little Devil's Heavy Artillery Brigade is finished. Now I announce that the encirclement plan will be implemented immediately!" Following Gao Jianwu's order through the walkie-talkie.

Chu Yunfei, Xu Shida, and Zhang Dabiao, three standby attack groups, launched operations almost at the same time. The tank battalion opened the way first, the infantry followed closely behind, and the last was the attack group's 75mm howitzer battalion.

They each rushed to the positions confirmed in advance, ready to cut off the back of the little devil!

"The heavy artillery regiments, fire according to the planned target and shelling range!" After Gao Jianwu commanded the infantry assault group, he began to command the heavy artillery group to fight.

On the map in his mind, all kinds of information from all the observation posts were collected, including the main force of the artillery regiment of each division of the little devil!
This is the intelligence that the scouts took advantage of late at night and risked their lives to go deep into the enemy's interior.

This time, Gao Jianwu didn't have time to work on the map, so he directly commanded and deployed each heavy artillery regiment after marking the map in his mind.

The four heavy artillery regiments took advantage of the night to enter the artillery positions designated by Gao Jianwu, and then aimed at their target division artillery regiments.

Within a few hundred square kilometers to the south of the wave valley, the 4 divisions of the Little Devils formed an arc-shaped attack formation, preparing to launch a full-scale attack on the second line of defense of the expeditionary army group!

But they never thought that the second line of defense Gao Jianwu commanded Ding Wei and the others to build was not to stop the little devils.

Instead, lead the little devils by the nose and let them line up in such a formation, so that they can deploy heavy artillery to launch a full-scale attack on them!
Sure enough, the little devil obediently followed Gao Jianwu's deployment and lined up the offensive formation along the second line of defense, just falling into the attack range of the heavy artillery regiment that had been deployed earlier.

Following Gao Jianwu's order, nearly a hundred 155mm howitzers roared almost simultaneously.The 155mm heavy artillery in the fixed artillery position is troublesome for them to maneuver and transfer, so they are all lined up along the second line of defense. This time their targets are all aimed at the artillery regiments of the various divisions of the little devils.

Hearing the heavy artillery bombardment of the expeditionary army group, General Kimura and Shimoda's chief of staff changed their colors on the spot. Of course, they could distinguish the sounds of several types of artillery from the expeditionary army group.

It is now heard that the number of 155mm howitzers alone far exceeds the expected 50.

Even if they don't know the target of the enemy's attack yet, with such a large number of 155mm heavy artillery, they will suffer heavy losses no matter where they attack.

At this moment, the artillery regiments of the little devil's divisions had just deployed their positions, and when they heard the whistling sound of shells in the distance, all their faces lost their color.

"Quick, quick, move, move the position immediately!" The quick-responsive little devil artillery commander began to order the transfer hoarsely.

The Type 41 mountain cannon, which can be pushed and moved by two people, has become the top priority rescue target at this moment. The artillerymen of the little devils are running around pushing the mountain cannon like burning their buttocks, but how can manpower run faster than the speed of the shells? It's so fast, howling The incoming 155mm artillery shells fell on the little devil's position, and the killing radius of one shell was as high as 50 meters. A heavy artillery regiment with more than 20 shells directly formed a seamless coverage of the entire position!

After a round of shelling, the little devil's artillery regiment was directly wiped out!
Only a very small number of fast-running little devil artillery fell through the net. Soon, General Kimura and Chief of Staff Shimoda received the bad news from the subordinate divisions that the artillery regiments were gone!
One more deadly news made General Kimura and Chief of Staff Shimoda feel paralyzed.

These artillery regiments hadn't even found their attack target, and they were wiped out one by one by the heavy artillery bombardment regiments of the expeditionary army group.

Such a wonderful thing, even if it is said, no one would dare to believe it.

The heavy artillery brigade is finished. Although General Kimura is uncomfortable, he can still bear it. After all, the heavy artillery brigade has completed the goal of suppressing the enemy's artillery fire and successfully crossing the river. There are not many places for them to attack. The opponent's heavy artillery unit doesn't seem to have much effect.

Next, the Air Force Pilot Division had a bad start, and directly hit a 0 bar 10!

It shattered General Kimura's dream of exchanging quantity for the quality of the Allied Air Force, which shows that in the air, the difference in technology is basically unresolved.

It's even worse now. Under Gao Jianwu's precise command, the artillery regiments of each division were wiped out!

How can this **** fight in the future, this battle has reached the present, even the gods can't save it.

General Kimura and Shimoda Saku looked at each other speechlessly, their eyes were full of gloomy death at this moment!

Frankly speaking, after the artillery regiment was eliminated, the divisions of the little devils were like being pulled out by tigers. Such troops still have a bit of an advantage over the guerrillas.

However, in the face of the expeditionary army group armed to the teeth, the enemy still has a large number of air force fighter planes, tanks and heavy artillery group artillery firepower to use. Shimoda made an empathy, even if it was pushed directly, it was basically a sure thing.

Facing Sherman tanks, the little devils of course have a painful lesson. On the Pacific islands, there are no heavy weapons. Relying on primitive weapons such as grenades and Molotov cocktails, they can kill a Sherman with a hundred people. up.

"Your Excellency, now our 51 locust army is at stake, and we must ask the Southern Army for tactical guidance. We have no way to supplement the artillery, but in terms of the air force, I know that the Southern Army now has a zero-type fighter flying team. The latest model of fighter jets is not inferior to the enemy’s P[-] Mustang fighter jets, we must regain air superiority, otherwise we will not be able to compete with the enemy.” Facing the extremely unfavorable situation, Chief of Staff Tiansaku finally put forward a constructive suggestion.

According to the establishment of the Little Devils Air Force, a flying team is about 30 to 40 fighters. If they invest in a Zero fighter flying team, it will certainly be a huge challenge for the air force of the expeditionary army group.

General Kimura thought for a while, and finally agreed with Shimoda as chief of staff.

"Gentlemen, the Burmese-British Front Army has sent an emergency call for help. So far, the Burmese-British Front Army's Heavy Artillery Brigade has been wiped out, and the artillery regiments of each division have all been destroyed. The situation is very dangerous, and according to Kimura-kun's request, we hope that we will immediately send a Zero fighter flight team to reinforce, regain the air superiority, and cover the retreat of the troops back to Mawlamyine."

General Si Nei, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army, was relatively calm when he heard the bad news. After all, he was in charge of the whole of Nanyang. Although the Burmese-British battlefield was crucial, it was not everything.

"Your Excellency, Commander, I think it is necessary to immediately send a zero-type fighter flight team for reinforcements." The Chief of Staff of the Southern Army Command, Numata, said in an interface.

"If we lose the Burmese and British territories, then Siam, French Annan, and the Malay Peninsula will all fall under the threat of expeditionary forces. In Siam, our troops are not enough to stop them."

As the chief of staff of the general in the temple, Takazo Numata knew the true and false facts of the Southern Army. Since the Burmese-British Territory has always been controlled by the British Army as the front line of the Allied Forces, the southeastern peninsula is equivalent to the hinterland, and the defensive forces deployed are far away. Much less than the Burmese and British territories.

Like Siam, there is only one division and one independent mixed brigade. The entire French Indochina (equivalent to the three countries of Cambodia and Vietnam in later generations) is a huge territory, that is, 4 divisions and two independent brigades. Calculate the average according to the later countries There are no more than two divisions in a country.

Faced with the attack of the expeditionary army group with this strength, with their current combat effectiveness, the 4 divisions can't stop them together, so one can imagine the result after entering the southeast peninsula.

Today, among the high-level members of the Southern Army, who dares to underestimate the sudden emergence of the Second Theater Expeditionary Army Group?
"However, Your Excellency Numata, we don't have many Zero fighter flying teams. In the Pacific battlefield, our air pressure is even greater. We will fight against the elites of the beautiful country in the Dutch East Indies and Luzon Island. Relatively speaking, we I think those places are more worthy of our reinforcements." A major general Gao Shen stood up to express his objection.

In fact, what he said was correct. What the little devils encountered in the Pacific battlefield was the main force of the air force of the beautiful country, and they needed advanced Zero fighters for reinforcements.

"Takata-kun, things have to be prioritized. Now Your Excellency Kimura is in trouble. We don't know enough about the enemy's air force in advance. The fighter jets of the Ninth Flying Division are already behind. Fighter plane. This is a serious dereliction of duty by our staff." Chief of Staff Numata unceremoniously educated Major General Takata.

Obviously, the Ninth Flying Division's mission to support the Burmese-British Territory should be Major General Takata's handwriting. When it was proposed at this time, Major General Takata's face would naturally be slapped.

Sure enough, Major General Takata blushed but didn't know how to refute, so he could only sit down dejectedly.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Major General Takata is the most promising person to succeed Numata Chief of Staff. Usually, the two of them are a little at odds. Seeing the opportunity, Major General Takata naturally wants to stand up and pour cold water on Chief Numata's plan.

It's just that he didn't expect to lift a rock and shoot himself in the foot.

"That's enough. I don't want to hear things that have nothing to do with the war situation in the Burmese-British territories. Mr. Numata, Mr. Takata, you are all the pillars of the empire, and the situation should be bigger," the general in the temple waved his hands with some headaches, and he was shocked by the people below. Fighting openly and secretly, he can't control it but he can't let them affect the whole team.

"Now it seems that we have underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Allied Forces in the Burmese-British Territories. Whether it is the 5th Flying Division in the south or the [-]th Flying Division in the north, they have suffered a big loss in the hands of the Allied forces. The entire Burmese-British Territories China's air superiority has long been in the hands of the opponent.

This led to the reversal of the situation in the Burmese and British territories. We must solve this problem, Mr. Numata, please immediately request 100 Zero fighter reinforcements from the base camp after the meeting.Order the remaining fighters and pilots of the [-]th and [-]th Flying Divisions to temporarily retreat to Siam Air Force Base, wait for the arrival of the Zero Fighter Flying Team, and then mix up the Zero Fighters to fight again! "

The general in the temple made a final decision.

"Hi!" Chief of Staff Numata and Major General Takada stood up at the same time and responded.
