Heroes of the War of Resistance

Compared with the cheers of the defenders and the people of Jinling, Ushishima Sadao and the Japanese soldiers who were ready to attack at any time felt a little disappointed.Six planes assisted in the battle, but four were directly shot down by the defenders.

This result was simply beyond the imagination of the Japanese army.The remaining two fighter jets escaped from the sky over Jinling. Many Japanese troops knew from their flying posture in the air that the two fighter jets were also seriously damaged.

If you don't fly back to the airport quickly, you may also fall.If such a situation really happened, I believe the army aviation troops would be outraged by it.Even so, the loss of four fighter jets was enough to make the little devil feel distressed for a while.

Seeing that the fighter jets didn't play a big role, the captain of the infantry regiment, who was ready to attack, also said carefully: "Your Excellency, division chief, what should we do with the next attack? Should we proceed as planned?"

"Wait and see! Send a report to the Heavy Artillery Brigade and let them prepare for the bombardment. If the Army Aviation side does nothing, we will directly use heavy artillery to completely destroy the Presidential Palace. Before nightfall, take the Presidential Palace at all costs !"

It is clear that the command's patience has a limit. If the division fails to capture the presidential palace before nightfall, Ushishima Sadao, as the division commander, is likely to be reprimanded or even canceled as the main attack mission.

It is a great shame for Ushishima Sadao and his division to have such a situation happen.This is why Ushishima Sadao emphasized to his subordinates that the presidential palace must be captured at all costs before nightfall.

The Japanese Army Command, which is preparing for the ceremony of entering the city, has also been waiting for news from the presidential palace.According to the previous vision of the headquarters, the ceremony of entering the city will be carried out at Zhongshan Gate, and then the headquarters will be placed in the presidential palace.

Now it seems that this plan has to be changed. The streets from Zhongshan Gate to the Presidential Palace have all been reduced to ruins of battlefields.How could such a place full of ruins be used as a shooting scene to highlight the Japanese army's achievements?

It was learned that four of the six fighters sent by Army Aviation were shot down by the defenders. Of the other two escaped fighters, one crashed on the way back to the airport. Only one fighter with less damage returned to the airport safely.

As the former commander, Matsui Iwane was also shocked: "What about it? We lost five fighter jets?"

"Yes, General! The only fighter jet that has returned to the airport, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take off again. According to the report of the returning pilot, the Chinese defenders have deployed a large number of anti-aircraft weapons in the garden of the presidential palace."

"Gah! Why didn't they conduct aerial reconnaissance before they attacked?"

His Royal Highness, who was staying aside, was also shocked and surprised by this news.But in the eyes of His Royal Highness, how could it be possible to deal with their invincible air force with only the air defense capability of the army?

The occurrence of this situation must be related to the carelessness of the fighter team!

In the end, the lieutenant officer who reported the situation said in a low voice: "Your Excellency, the garden area of ​​the Presidential Palace is a bit large, and the trees inside are also tall. The fighter planes are reconnaissance in the air, and it is difficult to find the air defense positions that have been camouflaged in advance."

The lieutenant officer, who explained the loss of Lu Hang for a while, did not expect His Royal Highness to be angry again: "Geyalu! Continue to send a report to Lu Hang, and let them send out fighter squadrons and bombers to completely raze the presidential palace to the ground."

Hearing such instructions, the Zhongzuo looked at Matsui Iwane, and seeing that the general was silent, he quickly stood up and said, "Hi!"

When re-ordering the Army Aviation Unit, Matsui Iwane sent another telegram to Ushishima Sadao in the name of the headquarters.Instruct the Tenth Division to take the opportunity to attack the presidential palace after the Army Aviation bombing is over.

For the defenders who stick to the presidential palace, try to capture some prisoners alive.The whereabouts of the commander surnamed Hu must be found out from the captives.If the commander surnamed Hu broke through last night, the Japanese army must also pay more attention to it later.

If the commander surnamed Hu is still in the presidential palace, it must be confirmed whether the other party is dead or alive.If a live one can be caught, its safety must be ensured.At least for Matsui Iwane, he was curious about the commander of the Jinling Death Battalion.

Knowing that the Lu háng kōng army would send fighter planes to assist in the battle again, Ushishima Sadao also heaved a sigh of relief: "Notify the heavy artillery brigade to set the bombardment position at the forward blocking position. After the bombing is over, the bombardment will be carried out immediately to completely destroy the Chinese army. Blocking position."

"Hi!"

Since the Air Force dispatched fighter planes to bomb the presidential palace, the Heavy Artillery Brigade did not store much heavy artillery shells. Ushishima Sadao felt that the blocking position guarded by Qin Tianyou was the most suitable.Under the double blow, the morale of the defenders must be severely damaged!

Hu Biao is naturally not very clear about the Japanese army's adjustment of combat deployment and the stance of using a bull's knife to kill chickens.Before the Japanese army launched an offensive, Hu Biao personally accompanied the air defense company and transferred the air defense jī qiāng and machine guns to the floor of the presidential palace.

The guns were aimed at the outside of the presidential palace, and some were aimed at the air, which could effectively defend against the Japanese fighter planes that swooped down and strafed at the windows.The jī qiāng and the machine gun with the muzzle facing down can hit the little devil infantry outside the window kǒu shooting range.

While busy stationing to adjust the combat deployment, the soldiers in charge of air defense alert sounded the air defense alarm again.The defenders, who were originally strengthening the fortifications, quickly returned to the air-raid shelter again, and countless eyes looked at the sky again.

Seeing more than a dozen fighter jets flying from a distance, as well as the bombers following the fighter jet formation, Chen Gongshu who was staying beside Hu Biao said with a wry smile: "Brother, we seem to have stabbed a hornet's nest!"

"It's okay! Come on! Anyway, sooner or later there will be a day when we can beat up four fighter jets. We've already made money, haven't we?"

Compared to Chen Gongshu's nervousness, Hu Biao acted calmly, staying in front of the basement of the presidential palace, quietly watching these fighter jets flying over the presidential palace again.As for the garden, Hu Biao handed it over to the air defense company commander to personally command.

The group of fighter jets that arrived over the presidential palace quickly headed for the garden of the presidential palace under the leadership of the pilot plane.Countless machine guns qiāng zǐ dàn knocked the branches and leaves of the trees growing in the garden, and the branches were interrupted from time to time.

But at this time, Hu Biao said: "Give me an order, the anti-aircraft fire on the floor, shoot if you have the opportunity, don't let the little devil fighters be too arrogant. They are in the open, we are in the dark, let the soldiers not be afraid, fight with them !"

Following Hu Biao's order, the anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns that had been moved to the floor windows fired scattered bullets and shells again.Seeing the bullets and shells fired from the floor, those fighter jets also dodged quickly.

All of a sudden, over the entire presidential palace, countless planes were spinning and flying, and countless bullets and artillery shells weaved a dense firepower network over the presidential palace.Facing the anti-aircraft fire from the floors, the Japanese pilots were really surprised.

Many pilots even directly said: "Gah! Didn't you say that the anti-aircraft positions of the Chinese army are located in the garden? Damn, what's the matter with these anti-aircraft firepower? There are anti-aircraft weapons everywhere, we are very dangerous!"

Just at this time, the air defense company commander staying in the garden looked at the anti-aircraft firepower of the Japanese fighter zhōu xuán, and immediately ordered: "Enter the position and start counterattack! Aim at those bombers and hit me!"

Started to move the muzzle of the anti-aircraft artillery, hid in the pit position dug in advance, and the anti-aircraft artillery opened fire again.When these anti-aircraft guns roared and fired the shells high into the sky, the bombers at high altitude were completely dumbfounded.

The bomber pilot, who was about to throw the háng kōngzhà dàn downward, had no idea that there were anti-aircraft guns that could threaten the bomber on the air defense position of the presidential palace.Unprepared, a bomber was blown up in the air! 9

Chapter Table of Contents Chapter [-] The last battle of the Mountain Cannon Company!

Seeing the bombers coming directly from the air, the Japanese fighter pilots who were fighting with the anti-aircraft fire, suddenly felt angry.The responsibility for failing to cover the bomber would naturally be attributed to the fighter team.

On the other hand, the air defense company, which was fighting fiercely with Japanese fighter jets, was very excited.The soldiers in charge of controlling the anti-aircraft jī qiāng and machine guns tried their best to shoot the bullets in the gun chambers and the machine guns into the air.

In the face of the dense anti-aircraft firepower formed in the air above the presidential palace, there are also artillery shells constantly hitting high altitudes from the garden.The fighter team ordered to carry out the bombing mission also became crazy, and several fighters went straight to the garden.

When the machine guns of the fighter jets fired a straight chain of fire along the pit emplacement, the machine gunner deployed on the garden floor also said frantically: "Shoot the shells into the garden and cover the company commander and the others!"

The shooter staying at the gun emplacement in the pit was completely powerless to resist the bullets that entered the emplacement.After it fell, the shooter who was standing next to him said tearfully: "Substitute, keep shooting, and avenge the dead brother!"

At the same time, the Japanese fighter jets that took the risk of diving and strafing were also bombarded by machine guns deployed on the floors near the garden.Seeing a plane crashing into the presidential palace, the soldiers of the air defense company also felt extremely relieved.

The fighters of the air defense company were constantly killed by Japanese fighter planes, and the Japanese fighter planes kept bombing, some began to smoke, and some began to shake.The entire presidential palace was empty, and with the intensive anti-aircraft firepower, it became extremely tragic.

It is very clear that the air defense company is defending the airspace of the presidential palace with blood. Although Hu Biao didn't say anything, his fists were clenched all the time.At this time, the bombers at high altitude had to avoid the anti-aircraft shells hitting high altitude.

Until the number of anti-aircraft guns fired on the ground decreased, soon bombers dumped zhà dàn from high altitude.As these bombs were thrown into the presidential palace, there was another explosion in the presidential palace, where gunshots were dense, and some low-rise buildings were blown down.

But more shells fell into the presidential palace wài wéi.As the bombers began to drop bombs, the surviving fighters could only choose to avoid.If they were to be hit by shells from bombers, their fighter jets would definitely not be able to handle it.

Ushishima Sadao, who was staying at wài wéi to watch the battle, saw the bomber that was blown up and the fighter that was shot down again. He was shocked and shocked.He knew very well how much courage it took for an air defense force to face off against a fighter jet team.

When the bombers began to dump the zhà yào they carried into the presidential palace in batches, the constant bangs of bangs also shocked the defenders staying in the air-raid shelter.But they all know that this time will not last too long.

The only good news is that many zhà dàn fell to the edge of the presidential palace, and some even missed it.Even so, they could still see buildings collapsing continuously, as well as successive explosions.

Seeing this scene, Ushishima Sadao also said at the right time: "Notify the Heavy Artillery Brigade to prepare for shelling! Order the attacking troops, and immediately launch the attack after the artillery fire extends. Gain a burst of energy and capture the presidential palace occupied by the enemy."

"Hi!"

As Ushishima Sadao gave the order to bombard, Qin Tianyou and others, who were watching the battle from the forward blocking position, soon saw the sudden whistling sound in front of them.The sentinel in charge of observation immediately screamed: "Bombardment! Cover! Quick cover!"

When the voice fell, those shells arrived in an instant.When the shell landed on the ruins and made a loud blast, Qin Tianyou, who was covering his ears, couldn't help cursing: "Damn, it's a heavy artillery! This is troublesome!"

And Hu Biao, who was staying in the presidential palace at the moment, also heard the shelling from the forward position.Fortunately, at this time, the bombers who dropped the bombs seemed to have thrown away all their zhà dàn, and all the fighters were staying at wài wéi.

When it was confirmed that the bomber of the little devil had turned around and was about to leave, the Japanese fighter jets made a comeback.Hu Biao still strictly ordered that the troops staying in the air-raid shelter are not allowed to go out. Going out at this time will only become a living target.

After the bombing, the Presidential Palace no longer looked as grand as before, and many side courtyards were completely bombed down.Fortunately, the few buildings in the heart of the city have successfully avoided the little devil's bombing.

Although some anti-aircraft firepower was destroyed, when the Japanese fighter jets dived and fired again, the jī qiāng machine guns located in the building fired again.For a while, the Japanese fighter jets, who wanted to make up for it, also found that it was not cheap.
