Chapter 280 Bird Hunting Success

280 Bird Hunting Success

It’s a pity that no matter how angry this Japanese pilot was, he could not change the current reality.

Under the fierce firepower of twenty three-inch anti-aircraft guns, they were suddenly attacked.

Of the thirty-six Japanese fighter planes that swooped down, one third were shot down directly in the fierce artillery fire.

"Ahhh, the Japanese fighter plane was shot down."

On the Purple Mountain position and near the Guanghua Gate of Jinling City, there are soldiers from the 88th Division who had just recaptured the area overnight.

When they saw the Japanese fighter planes falling from the sky, they celebrated wildly.

They have been unhappy with the Japanese fighter planes for a long time.

However, these national army soldiers were also very clear that they had no way to deal with these Japanese fighter planes.

So, facing the Japanese bombers, they launched wave after wave of bombing.

I watched many familiar comrades around me being killed by aerial bombs.

They could only bury their anger in their hearts and turn it into motivation to fight the Japanese.

Today, the brothers from the anti-aircraft artillery battalion finally avenged them.

Some of the Japanese pilots whose fighter planes crashed managed to parachute successfully.

"Go to hell, you damned little devils!"

Da da da!

As a result, these Japanese pilots who successfully parachuted are still falling.

They were shot crazily by the Kuomintang soldiers on the ground.

Before it even hit the ground, it was beaten into a sieve.

The Kuomintang officers nearby did not stop it after seeing this scene.

However, one officer complained angrily: "You bastards, you only know how to waste bullets.

I won't wait for the beast to fall down before killing it with a single blow of my sword.

That also saves bullets.

From now on, no one is allowed to waste bullets, wait for the devils to come down and kill them with knives."

"Yes, sir!"

The surrounding national army soldiers were scolded.

But they all grinned happily and agreed.

The anti-aircraft gun fire continued.

But the Japanese fighter planes also began to flee in all directions.

This ambush can be said to be very successful.

The twenty anti-aircraft guns of the 1st Militia Division formed a crossfire and shot down more than a dozen Japanese fighter planes in one breath.

However, a minute later, the remaining Japanese fighter pilots were also in a panic.

Quickly pull up the fighter plane and then escape to the surroundings.

"Drop the bomb early!"

The Japanese flight commander did not hesitate to issue such an order.

Let the Japanese fighter planes drop the bombs they carry in advance.

In this way, the weight of their fighter planes can be reduced and the speed of these Japanese bombers can be increased.

It will not be easily hit by the anti-aircraft guns below.

Boom boom boom!

Following the Japanese flight commander, the Japanese fighter plane he was piloting dropped bombs directly.

None of the bombs dropped hit the national army's defensive positions.

There was no bombing effect at all.

But from the perspective of this scene, the other Japanese pilots knew what they should do next.

This is to convey orders to the Japanese pilot commander.

As a result, more Japanese bomber pilots dropped their bombs in advance.

Then he pulled up the fighter plane and quickly fled from the sky above Purple Mountain.

Not long after, all the Japanese fighter planes that had hurriedly dropped bombs flew away.

However, there were thirty-six fighter planes when they came, but when they fled, only twenty-five were left.

A total of eleven Japanese fighter planes were shot down.

Among the 25 Japanese fighter planes that escaped, many were damaged.

"Haha, nice fight."

After seeing this scene, Zhou Xinghai shouted excitedly.

They shot down eleven Japanese fighter planes without paying much price.

This achievement is no less than destroying an entire regiment of Japanese invaders.

And it greatly boosted the morale of the national army soldiers.

The truth is, these Japanese bombers were so hateful and caused too much damage to the National Army soldiers.

As so many Japanese fighter planes were shot down in the sky, the attacking Japanese soldiers were also affected.

The morale changed from joy when seeing their own fighter planes coming to support, to frustration later on.

Then, the attacking Japanese troops were beaten back again.

"Baka, the Chinese have anti-aircraft guns but they deliberately haven't used them.

Set this trap and destroy our fighter planes.

This is bad.”

On the side of the commander of the Japanese 16th Division, Division Commander Nakajima Imao, after seeing so many of his own planes being shot down.

His face was as gloomy as water, and he knew that things were in trouble.

You know, among the Japanese troops attacking Nanjing at this time, only the Third Flying Regiment,

Such an air force provides air support.

It’s not that the Japanese only have these few fighter planes.

After the Japanese occupied North China, the Yangtze River Delta and many other areas, they transported a lot of fighter planes from the country to build new airports.

Therefore, at this time, the Japanese already had no less than a hundred fighter planes in China.

However, most of these fighter jets are not in the Yangtze River Delta at present.

Because, in the view of the top leaders of the Japanese military headquarters, the war in the Yangtze River Delta has basically ended.

At present, what concerns them more is the war in North China.

Several Japanese armies, with nearly 300,000 men, gathered in Xuzhou, preparing for another major battle with the Nationalist army.

Completely resolve the war in North China.

Not only the Japanese army's fighter planes, but even the Japanese aircraft carrier formation were heading north at this time.

Going to provide air support to the Japanese in Xuzhou.

In the view of the Japanese military high-ranking officials, it would be enough to keep one army flying regiment for the war in Nanjing.

Actually, that is indeed the case.

In Jinling, the Japanese have a Third Flying Regiment with thirty-six fighter planes.

It is completely sufficient to meet the combat needs of the old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane.

However, this time after the anti-aircraft artillery ambush.

The Japanese Third Flying Regiment lost one-third of its fighter planes in one go.

It's already a serious injury.

In addition, the Kuomintang had so many anti-aircraft guns on Purple Mountain.

This means that the Japanese fighter planes will never be able to operate the same way as before.

They bombed the Kuomintang troops on Purple Mountain indiscriminately.

Even if they were not careful, the Japanese fighter planes would still be at risk of being shot down by the National Army's anti-aircraft guns.

This is equivalent to directly restraining the aerial bombing, one of the two most powerful trump cards in the hands of the Japanese at that time!

Nakajima Imao did not dare to hide this fact.

Someone was immediately sent to report the situation to the Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane.

"Nani?

The Chinese had anti-aircraft guns? They ambushed our flying regiment?

Eleven fighter planes were shot down?

Baka! How could this happen! "

When the old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane received the news, he was confused and surprised at first, and then he became furious.

Matsui Iwane himself knew that the 36 fighter planes of the 3rd Flying Regiment were one of the two trump cards in his hand.

"Trash, idiot.

Chiga Chuji, this idiot,

The old Japanese soldier Matsui Iwane cursed the commander of the Japanese Third Flying Regiment.

After cursing for a while, the old Japanese stopped.

In fact, he himself didn't expect that something like this would happen.

He himself didn't expect that Ye Qingshan had secretly hidden such a batch of anti-aircraft guns and had waited until now to use them.

(Come on, ask for some small gifts! Thanks brothers!)
