Chapter 280 Shot down!

A sword given by the Emperor?

Li Yunlong was suddenly startled and looked at Wei Dayong.

It’s not like I’ve never seen a colonel’s command sword before. He still has a colonel’s command sword in his house.

After touching the Major General's Command Sword and the Emperor's Imperial Command Sword, Li Yunlong somewhat disdained the Saguan Sword.

The last time I sniped Yamazaki in Lijiapo, I seized a saber given by the Emperor. However, before I could warm it in my hand, the brigade commander robbed it.

Li Yunlong's intestines turned green with regret.

And the one in my hand now is actually a Sakan sword given by the Emperor?

"Commander, look." Wei Dayong pointed at the command sword, "There is a golden chrysanthemum pattern on the handle that symbolizes the Japanese royal family. It is a military sword given by the emperor."

Zhang Dabiao from behind came over and stared at the Zuoguan knife with a drooling expression.

Zhao Gang said happily: "It's true that the Emperor gave you a saber. Old Li, this time you are rich again."

"Haha, God treats me well!" Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Yes, a good knife!"

This time, we must not let our superiors rob us!

He immediately picked up the scabbard from the ground, put the blade back into the scabbard, and inserted it into the belt around his waist.

The Eighth Route Army cap, the Kwantung Army coat, and the imperial sword given by the Emperor are full of style.

Li Yunlong asked: "Have the arsenal been taken down?"

"It's been taken down!" Duan Peng said loudly, "The Japs wanted to detonate the bomb, but fortunately our Langya team arrived in time and prevented the Japs from succeeding."

"Good job." Li Yunlong looked extremely satisfied, "Let's go and have a look at the arsenal."

Then the group of people walked towards the door.

Zhao Gang ordered the soldiers: "See if the Japanese have left anything behind, and take back whatever you can."

"yes!"

Li Yunlong, Wei Dayong and others had just walked to the door when a vague roar sounded in their ears.

After a moment, everyone's expressions changed.

"airplane!"

"hidden!"

"All battalions and companies gather and prepare for air defense!"

A buzzing roar came from far away, and four small dots the size of ants appeared in the northern sky. Li Yunlong roared loudly.

Following his order, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment reacted instantly. The surrounding soldiers suddenly dispersed and quickly found bunkers to escape.

The veterans were calm and orderly hiding under the eaves, and the recruits also found bunkers one after another under the command of each squad leader.

Since the last time we saw the power of Japanese aerial bombs, the soldiers have been extremely active in air defense drills and are very skilled in this set of actions.

The machine gunners and submachine gunners of each battalion and company quickly set up their guns in the corner, waiting for the Japanese plane to arrive.

at the same time.

Four Zero fighter planes appeared in the sky north of Yushe County. The formation was led by Lieutenant General Sao Endo Takayoshi of the Japanese First Army Aviation Battalion. Their mission was the same as last time, to provide air support to the Black Island Regiment stationed in Yushe County.

Once the Eighth Route Army is discovered, bombing and shooting will be carried out immediately!

Lieutenant Colonel Serizawa, who ordered an aerial bomb to be dropped on the Japanese soldiers last time, has already gone to court-martial.

Lieutenant Colonel Endo was very disdainful of Serizawa. He could drop an aerial bomb on one of his own people. He was extremely stupid.

This time, the Zero fighter he was flying still carried two 59-kilogram aerial bombs.

Lieutenant Colonel Endo's squadron flew towards Yushe County from the north, and the Yushe County town under the wings was filled with smoke.

During the Battle of Xinkou, the Japanese army, led by the 5th Division, had about 70,000 troops, and the Nationalist Army's 14th Group Army Wei Lihuang's troops, about 200,000 troops, fought bloody battles at Xinkou for more than half a month. Lieutenant Commander Endo once said during the fiercest battle

He led a fleet of aircraft to bomb the Nationalist Army's positions several times, especially destroying the Nationalist Army's rear supply lines. Lieutenant Commander Endo received the "Rising Sun Medal".

"01,01, China artillery position has been discovered. Do you want to attack? Do you want to attack?" The wingman called to Takayoshi Endo.

In fact, Endo Takayoshi also saw the Eighth Route Army's position outside the north gate of the county. Countless gray figures were lying on the ground, and several mountain cannons were clearly visible.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Endo Takayoshi's mouth. Do you think he can't see you if you lie on the ground?

If we didn't drop two aerial bombs, we would be a bit sorry for the other party.

Lieutenant Commander Endo Takayoshi issued the order: "02,02, follow me into the attack position, 03,04 serve as cover!"

He pulled the control stick, and the nose of the plane suddenly sank down, and he led his wingman roaring through the clouds and dived downwards. Once the Zero fighter entered the dive attack, it would be difficult to change its course.

The artillery positions on the ground were getting closer and closer. Endo Takayoshi pressed the bomb release button without hesitation. The 59-kilogram aviation incendiary bombs under the wings on both sides left the aircraft body, with a harsh whistling sound, and smashed towards the Eighth Route Artillery position.

Go down.

Endo Takayoshi pulled up the control stick, and the aircraft flew dangerously close to the city wall of Yushe County.

There were two deafening explosions behind him, and two small mushrooms rose up. Endo Takayoshi glanced back and saw that the artillery position of the Eighth Route Army had turned into a sea of ​​flames.

The corner of Endo Takayoshi's mouth curled up slightly, and then he felt the fuselage shake violently, as if it was hit by hail, and the fuselage and wings crackled.

The transparent plexiglass cover of the cockpit was instantly shattered into pieces by the rain of bullets as dense as locusts, and the engine suddenly stopped rotating!

Oh my gosh, Endo Takayoshi realized in hindsight that this was at least an interception fire network composed of hundreds of light and heavy machine guns. Because the opponent could not have anti-aircraft guns, the fuselage was not raised after the bomb was dropped.

I flew close to the houses in Yushe County, but I flew too low.

"Baga!" Endo Takayoshi had no time to think too much and could only yell angrily, because he was beaten into a sieve by the rain of bullets in an instant. The plane fell headlong and hit a house in the county town, exploding.

A ball of orange-red sparks.

The power of the Mauser 7.92mm, Type 92 7.7mm, and Crooked 6.5mm machine gun ammunition of the Min-24 heavy machine gun and the Czech light machine gun is seriously insufficient for air defense. Fortunately, the Japanese Zero fighter is notoriously thin-skinned.

Facing the firepower network compiled by 200 machine guns and more than 100 submachine guns, the Japanese flew fighter planes almost close to the scalp. Endo Takayoshi obviously paid for his arrogance.

And the price of paying the bill is to hand over your life here.

The pilot of Wingman No. 02, who was following the lead aircraft, noticed that something was wrong. Under the cover of the other two aircraft, he yanked the control stick to pull the aircraft up into the clouds, but the wings were also covered with bullet holes.

Seeing that the leader plane was shot down, the other three planes seemed to be angry and dived down as if they were desperate.

Da da da……

The cannons and machine guns on both wings of the fighter jet burst into flames, spitting out four tongues of flame, and the bullets fired splashed four half-meter-high streaks of dirt and gravel on the ground.

The Zero fighter was equipped with two 7.5mm machine guns and two 20mm cannons. Both in terms of rate of fire and power, they were more powerful than the Type 92 heavy machine gun. Under the dense rain of bullets, three soldiers died on the spot.

Then two other fighter planes swooped down, and four more soldiers were hit.

In this dive attack, seven soldiers were killed or injured.

There is still a dense firepower network, and the Japanese planes dare not fly too low, otherwise the casualties will be even greater!

There is no way around this. Fighting from high altitude to low altitude already gives you the advantage.
