Beiyang reactionaries

Wu Peifu is still confident.

After a period of testing, Wu Peifu believed that there were not many troops in Handan City.Or the combat troops are limited.Wu Peifu's judgment was correct. The garrison division had four infantry brigades and one cavalry brigade, of which three infantry brigades and one cavalry brigade were composed of combat troops.Although the third brigade of the security division is an infantry brigade, it is actually a support brigade.

Even the supply units belong to the third brigade.

Dong Songyan's [-]th Brigade suffered heavy losses at Linming Pass. With the addition of the [-]rd Brigade and divisional troops, it seemed that there were a lot of people, but there were not many combat troops.Wu Peifu had already figured it out after a few trials.

Although there were troops supporting Handan a few hours ago, not many troops came in.

Wu Peifu is sure.

A meeting was held on the front line to deploy troops. About two hours later, Wu Peifu was ready to attack.Artillery units, machine gun units, covering and attacking units, Wu Peifu's third division can be said to be well-trained.

Invest tens of thousands of troops.

Although it does not mean that tens of thousands of troops are really involved in the attack, there are tens of thousands of troops mobilized.The attack of the troops is wave-like.The first echelon attacks, and the other troops cover.

After the failure, immediately switch to the second echelon to attack, and then the third echelon.

That is to say, the troops in the city are not given time to rest, and this high-intensity attack is used to attack the troops in the city.Wu Peifu was not very far from the city wall, and directly commanded the troops to attack from the front line.

It's today.

Wu Peifu wants to take Handan today, completely defeat Duan Xun's security division, let him withdraw from the battle sequence, and teach Duan Xun a lesson.

"Are you all ready?"

"Yes."

"There is no retreat in this battle. Handan must be taken for me before evening."

"Yes."

"Now……"

"Ding Ding Ding-"

Wu Peifu was just about to make the final arrangement when he suddenly heard some unusual sounds.Wu Peifu frowned and looked around, the voice was getting louder.Many people present heard it.

Soon Wu Peifu and his officers discovered that it was the voice coming from the air.

Wu Peifu looked up and just saw the plane flying from the south.This is not surprising, Duan Xun has sent planes to carry out battlefield reconnaissance before.However, Wu Peifu had an ominous premonition, because all the planes investigated before were one, but this time there were many black spots in the sky, and it seemed that there were seven or eight planes.

Soon these black dots are getting bigger and bigger.

This is lowered.

But as the dot got bigger, suddenly there were lots of smaller dots in the sky.Wu Peifu immediately understood what it was, so he shouted: "Get down, get down."

296 Air Force First Battle 2

"Get down, get down."

Wu Peifu guessed what it was, and the smart officer under him also guessed what it was, so he got down immediately.But it doesn't mean that everyone can know what it is.

In fact, most people don't know what it is, including many officers under Wu Peifu, they don't know what it is either.

The third division is an elite force, but it is only aimed at the current Chinese army, and it is an elite force in China.In domestic warlord wars, his troops are very effective.But where have they seen an airplane laying eggs? Many of them have never even seen an airplane, and most of them don't even know what an airplane is.Although the First World War, countries have already used aircraft on a large scale.European powers even produced 10,000+ aircraft in WWI.

But for China, airplanes are still too unfamiliar, and many people have never even heard of airplanes.

The Air Force is even stranger.

Even Wu Peifu is just some speculation, because Wu Peifu has never seen it, and he doesn't know the role of the Air Force.Wu Peifu has only seen airplanes, but he has never seen the Air Force fight, nor does he know how the Air Force fights.

Because this is a blank for the current Chinese army.Where does the current Chinese army have an air force establishment?

So many people are stunned.

Liu Xiang's use of the air force is also blind.But Liu Xiang has at least watched the air force's exercises, seen the power of the air force, and knows what the air force does.So he chooses to use the plane when it suits him best.

He Guoguang led the vanguard into Handan a few hours ago.

Moreover, most of the troops of the independent mixed brigade are not far from Handan, and are even about to enter Handan.At this time, Hu Jingyi and the others discovered the changes in Wu Peifu's troops, and saw that Wu Peifu began to gather troops to launch a final attack on Handan.So immediately reported to Liu Xiang, and Liu Xiang sent the air team out.

The plane is not slow.

After taking off from Zhengzhou, after flying for about an hour and a half, we arrived at the position of Wu Peifu's troops.

34 planes formed four echelons, and came to attack one by one.This is not Liu Xiang's idea, but Qin Guoyong's tactics as the captain of the temporary air team.

The first batch consisted of eight aircraft.

With more than 1000 kilograms of aerial bombs.

dive.

In fact, it is not that high-tech.After they saw the position on Wu Peifu's side, they reduced their speed and altitude, and then began to drop bombs on the position.Speaking of which, the hit rate is not high, and it is even far from what they thought.

But who made Wu Peifu's main force concentrate on these few kilometers.

Even if the hit rate is not high, these positions are all within the bombing range.When many soldiers of Wu Peifu's third division did not respond at all, the bomb had already fallen.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

"boom--"

bomb.

More than 1000 kilograms of bombs were dropped on Wu Peifu's troops in a short period of time.Many officers and soldiers of the third division were bombed into the sky before they had time to react.

More than 1000 kilograms of aerial bombs is not a lot, but it is definitely not a lot.

The effect of throwing it down is very obvious.

Wu Peifu's third division was considered well-trained, but was still stunned by the sudden bomb.The entire army was in complete confusion, not knowing what to do at this time.It's not over yet.After dropping the bombs, the planes lowered their altitude again.

"Thumbs up—"

"Suddenly—"

machine gun.

The heavy machine gun installed on the plane chugs and chugs down bullets, causing heavy losses to many soldiers of the third division who have not yet reacted.Facing this kind of attack for the first time, they didn't know what to do at all.

I don't even know how to avoid it.

This is not their problem.If it is a war on the ground, they know how to avoid artillery bombardment and how to avoid other people's attacks.Because this is what they usually train.
