The Japanese soldiers who had managed to escape had already reported the situation here through the radio in the back seat. The Japanese soldiers were clear about the situation of the entire position.
Soon, fighter planes began to fly towards the artillery position of the 1st Battalion. This time, the Japanese army sent a total of 12 fighter planes. In their opinion, this number of fighter planes was enough.
Now that the Japanese army was besieging the entire Pingjin area, the military forces were very tense. Even more than a dozen fighter planes were squeezed out from other places.
The current commander of the 20th division, Kawagishi Bunsaburo, was very angry. He had lost his temper countless times in the past few days. All of this was caused by that mysterious force.
He quickly learned about the information of this unit. According to the information, this unit had a total of an infantry battalion and an artillery battalion. Their equipment was very luxurious, which could be seen from today's battle.
The luxury of the other party's equipment made him envious. If the Japanese Imperial Army could have such equipment, it would be so good that he could even kill the Americans.
However, after defeating their own artillery regiment, their artillery actually supported the other battle lines. It could be seen how relaxed the other side was now.
Now, he had found out that this mysterious army was very likely armed by the Global Arms Company. This made him remember this name deeply. The Global Arms Company had stimulated his nerves time and time again.
"Tell the Air Force to hurry up. I can't take it anymore!”Wen Saburo said with clenched fists.
No one would be able to withstand such an endless bombardment. The other party had an arms company to support them as if they could not run out of ammunition.
Now, not only was he looking forward to the arrival of the Japanese Air Force, even Xu Ziqiu was waiting, waiting to give them a fatal blow.
The Japanese fleet finally came out amidst the repeated calls from both sides. A black dot appeared in Xu Ziqiu's eyes, painted with a medicine flag.
"Yuxi, Lu Hang is finally here. Hurry up and blast them into pieces!”Wen Saburo said with a smile.
Obviously, he thought that after the army set out, this mysterious troop would be defeated by the bombing and then annihilated by the imperial army.
However, his expression soon froze and became extremely ugly.
The Japanese pilots had similar thoughts. They did not encounter any decent resistance in China. The only strong air force was Old Jiang and the Cantonese warlords. The rest were the Northeast Army, but they had long become their spoils of war.
In order to ensure the accuracy of their attacks, they flew at a low altitude to maximize the power of their ammunition. However, this action made them taste the taste of being slaughtered.
The Japanese fleet flew arrogantly towards the position. When they passed by the trenches below, they threw a few bombs down. Fortunately, they did not cause too many casualties.
"Get ready!"
A Bofors 40mm cannon was aimed in the direction of the Japanese fleet. They were all professional anti-air artillery operators. Needless to say, every one of them was very powerful.
Using 12 anti-air cannons to organize an anti-air net, as long as the Japanese fleet entered the optimal range, they could guarantee the maximum damage.
The theoretical maximum firing rate of the Bofors 40mm single-barrel anti-aircraft gun was 140 rounds per minute, and the actual firing rate could be as high as 70 rounds per minute.
The aiming system of the Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft gun was composed of a reflective optical sight and a simple mechanical computer for fast tracking of air targets. This aiming system allowed the gunner to effectively correct the air targets flying at a speed of 563 km/h, thus greatly enhancing the accuracy of shooting.
Not to mention these old planes flying at low altitudes, they were almost like the targets they usually shot at.
The 12 fighter planes did not notice the danger below because the reconnaissance planes did not notice the anti-aircraft artillery positions. That was why they were so fearless.
Soon, they entered the optimal range of the air defense net.
"Fight!" The artillery commanders waved the red flags in their hands and passed down the orders.
"Dong dong dong!"
The high gunner stepped on the firing pedal, and anti-aircraft artillery shells with proximity fuzes were fired into the sky. Suddenly, two Japanese fighter planes turned into fireballs. The anti-aircraft artillery shells completely covered the Japanese fighter planes, and two of them were instantly shot down. This was the heaven-defying power of the proximity fuze.
Suddenly, the Japanese pilots in the sky were dumbfounded. They said that there were no anti-air cannons. What was this? What was it? Tell me!
Now, they just wanted to drag the two scouts out and beat them up. They must be blind. There were more than ten anti-air cannons, but they actually said that there was no anti-air firepower.
The Japanese pilots reacted very quickly. They pushed the control stick and began to fly forward at the fastest speed. As long as they flew past the angle of the anti-air artillery, they would not be hit.
