Chapter 152 The Japanese fighter planes counterattack!
Ichiro Nakajima was controlled by anger and ordered the bombing of the anti-aircraft company.
All of a sudden, the remaining Japanese air force squadrons headed towards the air defense company.
Of course, the anti-aircraft company commander standing behind the 88mm anti-aircraft gun position also noticed it.
After all, the commander of the anti-aircraft company had been observing the Japanese air force through a telescope.
Seeing the Japanese air force coming towards their anti-aircraft artillery, they quickly picked up the loudspeaker and shouted: "Attention, the Japanese planes are coming towards us."
"Follow my command. Adjust the muzzle. Altitude 3100 meters, four o'clock...fire!"
Following the order of the anti-aircraft company commander, more than a dozen 88mm anti-aircraft guns fired at the same time.
"Boom boom boom..."
Another continuous volley.
Unfortunately, the Japanese were well dispersed this time, and hundreds of shells only hit one Type 97 bomber.
That's why so many planes were hit just now.
On the one hand, it was a surprise attack and the Japanese Air Force was not prepared.
On the other hand, the Japanese air force is relatively concentrated.
"Damn it! They didn't even concentrate a few of the Japanese planes." The commander of the anti-aircraft company waved his loudspeaker and shouted.
After a while.
The anti-aircraft company commander made some adjustments and then continued to give the order: "Fire!"
"Boom boom boom..."
Watching the Japanese planes getting closer and closer.
The soldiers of the anti-aircraft company were anxious, and both the gunners and the shell loaders were fighting desperately.
In this desperate state.
Each anti-aircraft gun was firing continuously, and the speed was obviously much faster.
This resulted in a barrage of deadly bullets shooting out from the sky.
In this barrage of death, although the Japanese air force tried their best to dodge, the probability of being hit had greatly increased.
Looking at the plane that was constantly emitting thick smoke, Nakajima Ichiro kept cursing: "Baka, Baka..."
"Escort fighters, you must clear a path for the bombers, or you will all die."
After hearing this, the Japanese soldiers on the escort plane shouted loudly: "Hey!"
The Japanese soldiers escorting the planes had already been angered and no longer cared about their own life or death.
With the escort aircraft risking their lives, they launched a ground attack in an attempt to clear a path for the Japanese bombers.
But what these Japanese escort planes didn't know was that the guard battalion had already set up heavy machine guns and was waiting for them.
When the Japanese escort aircraft's flying altitude reached below 600 meters.
The guard battalion's heavy machine guns began firing.
"Da da da da da..."
At the same time, the Japanese escort aircraft also opened fire.
"Da da da da da..."
Suddenly, dozens of tongues of fire appeared in the sky.
But the Japanese escort aircraft were too fast, and the guard battalion's heavy machine guns found it difficult to hit them.
Most of the guard battalion's heavy machine gun trains followed behind the Japanese escort aircraft.
However, the Japanese escort aircraft could easily attack the heavy machine gun positions of the guard battalion.
A round of fighting.
The Japanese only lost one escort plane.
However, the guard battalion did lose six heavy machine guns and 18 guard battalion soldiers.
"Idiots, are you all idiots?"
"Don't you know how to act in advance? Don't you know how to predict?"
Looking at the loss of the heavy machine gun position, the third company commander of the guard battalion cursed.
Then he went into battle himself and operated a heavy machine gun.
the other side.
Zhou Weimin, Sun Chu, and Xu Hu were all watching the battle.
"The air defense company's training needs to be strengthened. Look at what they're doing. The anti-aircraft guns I gave them are the best in the world."
"But their rate of fire is too slow. If the rate of fire had reached the target in the first round, the Japanese would have lost several more planes."
"And the heavy machine gun positions organized by your guard battalion are too dense. They are sitting ducks."
"The heavy machine guns for air defense must be dispersed. By the way, who's in the heavy machine gun position now? Li Wenshan?"
Zhou Weimin was watching the battle through a telescope while speaking to Xu Hu beside him.
Zhou Weimin was dissatisfied with this battle.
The air defense training of the Tiger Guard Division was still not adequate.
"Commander-in-Chief, the commander of the heavy machine gun position is the commander of the third company of the Guard Battalion, Jiang Lin."
"Jiang Lin was just promoted. He joined the Tiger Guard Division not long ago."
After hearing what Zhou Weimin said, Xu Hu hurriedly said.
In fact, Xu Hu was just about to command the heavy machine gun position personally, but was stopped by Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin’s reason was very simple.
That is, Xu Hu is the battalion commander of the guard battalion and should not do such a dangerous thing.
Jiang Lin can handle this kind of thing.
It just so happened that Zhou Weimin looked for Xu Hu at that time, so Xu Hu let Jiang Lin command the heavy machine gun position.
"You have good courage, but your air defense command is not good." Zhou Weimin nodded slightly and said after hearing this.
Too many soldiers have joined the Tiger Guard Division in the past few months.
Many soldiers were promoted and the guard battalion was also supplemented with new soldiers.
The only person Zhou Weimin didn't know was Jiang Lin. This Jiang Lin should have been the one who had just been added to the guard battalion.
"Wei Min, our soldiers don't have any training in air defense. You're being too harsh."
"Besides, using machine guns for air defense means risking your life. Your soldiers are already very capable."
After hearing Zhou Weimin's words, Sun Chu looked at the battle scene and spoke slowly.
This is just the Tiger Guards Division. If it were the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, they would have been running around long ago and there would be no need for air defense.
Because there are no weapons for air defense.
At this moment, Sun Chu attached even more importance to the battle of the Huben Division.
Of course, I value Zhou Weimin even more.
Because Sun Chu didn't expect that Zhou Weimin actually had a German 88mm anti-aircraft gun.
You should know that the German 88mm anti-aircraft gun is currently the best anti-aircraft gun.
This anti-aircraft gun can not only shoot down airplanes, but also tanks.
It can be said that there is one gun and one tank.
The German 88mm anti-aircraft gun has extremely terrifying anti-tank capabilities.
“Woo…Boom…”
Just as Sun Chu was thinking.
A huge explosion was heard not far away.
The explosion was so large that the vibration could be felt in the small cave where they were hiding.
This was a Japanese plane that crashed near Zhou Weimin, Sun Chu and others.
"Xu Hu, send someone to check. We must confirm that the Japanese pilot is dead."
"If he's not dead, just shoot him!"
Zhou Weimin also heard the explosion, so he said to Xu Hu beside him.
"Yes!" Xu Hu said hurriedly after hearing this, and then sent several soldiers to check.
"Wei Min, if you can capture the Japanese pilots, try your best to capture them." Sun Chu said hurriedly after hearing Zhou Weimin's words.
Zhou Weimin didn't say anything after hearing this, but nodded slightly. Then he said to the soldiers who were about to leave, "Listen to Commander Sun."
Several soldiers nodded after hearing the question and left quickly.
In fact, Zhou Weimin didn’t care much about whether the prisoners were alive or dead, because even if they were alive, he would execute them when they were captured.
Zhou Weimin's Tiger Guards never take prisoners.
