About 10 kilometers away from the position, the Thousand Islands Country's Artillery Company had set up an artillery position with six M102 105mm howitzers. This type of artillery was developed by the Bald Eagle Army in the 1960s and was also the division level support artillery of the Thousand Islands Country's army.
Now, they were ready to fire. After receiving the order, an officer of the Thousand Islands Kingdom immediately commanded the cannons to fire. Their target was the Red Alert position.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The cannons began firing, and after a few seconds, flames began to erupt from all over the camp. The explosion of the artillery shells sent soil flying in the air, and dust began to spread over the camp.
The deputy brigade commander looked at the artillery shells that kept exploding in the camp and could not help but feel very happy. He heard that the rebel army had artillery, but they did not return fire. Was there a conspiracy or did they run out of artillery shells?
He was more inclined to the latter. They must have used up all their artillery shells in the last battle.
The deputy brigade commander frowned. This group of arrogant air forces always came late to provide support.
"Order the attacking troops to attack!”The deputy brigade commander felt that the artillery would have blown up most of the positions without waiting for the air force to arrive. It should not cause too much of an obstacle for them.
Soon, 10 Scorpion Light Tanks formed a battle formation, covering the infantry battalion as they slowly moved forward.

This was also the most powerful air defense radar that the radar station could produce at the moment. Li Jiulong was very rich now, so he directly produced one for the air defense platoon.
For example, the large-scale radar base station needed to unlock advanced technology before it could be produced.
When the air force of the Thousand Island Country took off from Banga Military Airport, the air defense radar command vehicle had already detected it. This time, the air force of the Thousand Island Country sent out six fighter planes in one go, either to vent their anger or to attach great importance to this operation.
There were four OV10 close support aircraft and two A-4 Skyhawk attack aircraft. This air force was not considered weak against the so-called 'rebels'. After all, the Thousand Island Country's air force did not have many fighter planes, and the airspace they defended was very large and relatively scattered.
The anti-air platoon had already received orders from their battalion commander, Han Fei. Once they discovered a threatening aircraft entering the range of the anti-air missiles, they would immediately shoot without reporting!
Therefore, when the air force of the Thousand-island Country was about 100 kilometers away from the position, the air defense platoon began to move. The air defense platoon command vehicle immediately locked onto the six targets and followed them. The three air defense vehicles immediately fired two Patriot-2 air defense missiles each.
"Sou!" "Sou!"“!”
Anti-air missiles shot up into the sky, flying toward the fighter jets of the Thousand Island Country hundreds of kilometers away.
The deputy brigade commander and the others saw this scene. He knew what this kind of missile was. It was an anti-air missile.
The 6 fighter jets that were flying over 100 km away suddenly saw their radar alarms flashing crazily. Their hearts sank and they started cursing in their hearts.
They were also very puzzled. They didn't even have such a thing, so how did the rebels get their hands on such high-tech weapons?
However, now was not the time to care about this. The most important thing was to survive under the anti-aircraft missiles.
However, with the third generation of medium and long-range air defense missiles, even if they used all their strength, they would not be able to escape. If a fighter plane wanted to avoid medium and long-range air defense missiles, unless their fighter plane's performance was greater than the missiles, it would be extremely difficult to escape.
The other method was to interfere with the radar or directly knock out the enemy's anti-air radar vehicles. However, the Thousand Island Country's Air Force did not have these conditions.
The missile flew at a speed of several Mach, and in less than a minute, it had flown dozens of kilometers. The four aircrafts of the Thousand Island Kingdom, which were speeding back, naturally saw the missile coming from behind.
The Patriot-2 anti-aircraft missile was very fast, especially when it accelerated at the end. It exploded at a speed of Mach 6. What kind of concept was that? It was more than 2000 meters per second.
The first four OV10s, which were the slowest and had the worst maneuverability, were the first to suffer. Even though they had used all their strength, they still could not avoid the fate of being hit.
Four balls of fire exploded in the air, and four fighter jets were destroyed in the air. With the Patriot II anti-air missiles, the pilots of these light fighter jets could not escape at all.
When the other two A4 pilots saw this scene, they immediately felt like their souls were about to leave their bodies. One of the A4 fighter pilots decisively pulled the launch device. When he was sent flying, the fighter was directly hit by the missile and exploded.
The pilot and weapon officer of the other A4 weren't so lucky. They died gloriously in a ball of fire!
The six missiles hit 100% and directly shot down four advanced fighter jets of the Qiandao Country's Air Force. This was not beyond Li Jiulong's expectations.
Although he didn't know how to command, he was still a military fan. He had a good understanding of the performance of these weapons. With the outdated fighter jets of the Qiandao Country's air force, he couldn't say 100% accuracy, but at least 99%.
