Chapter 684 orders all air defense forces to join the battle and thwart the Japanese conspiracy to b
After arranging the defense of Taiyuan City, Li Yunlong and Lin Zhenhua went to the kitchen, had a simple breakfast, and began to patrol Taiyuan City. In order to ensure that everything was safe, the two of them walked around the entire Taiyuan City, checked the defense situation outside the city, adjusted the combat deployment of some troops, and then returned to the underground air-raid shelter.
The headquarters was temporarily arranged in the No. 1 air raid shelter, and a company of anti-aircraft firepower was specially deployed nearby to ensure the absolute safety of the headquarters. The communication network built by field telephones and emergency communication radio stations was unobstructed, allowing orders to be issued in a timely manner.
At dawn, the Japanese dispatched more than 280 combat aircraft and headed straight for Taiyuan City. The command center, which had already learned the news, immediately ordered the two fighter squadrons stationed at Taiyuan Airport to take off to meet the enemy and buy time for the air defense forces.
The shrill air defense alarm sounded at the first moment, and a large number of people were evacuated to the air-raid shelters. The large number of anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns deployed in Taiyuan City immediately entered a state of alert.
"Captain, according to the radar, there are 82 Japanese fighter planes attacking from the southeast, 69 Japanese fighter planes attacking from the northwest, and more than Japanese fighter planes circling in the southwest, ready to join the attack at any time!" Xiao Shitou rushed in and reported anxiously.
Li Yunlong immediately went to the air defense combat command center. Lin Zhenhua was busy inside, and many people were coming in and out. The air defense alarm sounded non-stop.
"College student, what's the situation? Has the air force regiment launched an attack?" Li Yunlong asked anxiously.
Lin Zhenhua replied without even looking up: "The Air Force Regiment left the base at the same time as the Japanese set out, and will soon arrive over Taiyuan City, ready to intercept the Japanese fighter planes' bombing of Taiyuan City."
"But I think the Japanese are not trying to make a feint to the east but are planning to attack the west at the same time. The air force regiment is under great pressure. Now we have to split into two at the same time. Facing threats from two directions, we must be prepared in advance for huge losses to the air force regiment."
"In order to reverse the downward trend in the next air battle, I have ordered the bomber unit to stand by and bomb the enemy's airport when the battle between the two sides is the most intense, so as to weaken the enemy's war potential."
"This operation is very risky. After all, the enemy has more than 600 combat aircraft, while we only have more than 400 aircraft in total, including many wooden fighter planes. Otherwise, our number of combat aircraft would be even smaller."
"We have no way out now. We can only fight the devils to the end. No matter how great the price, we must not let the devils succeed!"
Li Yunlong looked at the idling situation map on the wall, with various small flags inserted on it. Just as Li Yunlong was about to speak, the defenders of Niangzi Pass also reported that nearly 200 fighter planes flew over Niangzi Pass and were about to launch an attack on Niangzi Pass.
Just as Lin Zhenhua expected, the situation was developing in an unpredictable direction, but Li Yunlong had no good solution and could only watch. When it came to air combat command, Li Yunlong was really no match for Lin Zhenhua, which was the fundamental reason why Li Yunlong never interfered in the command of the Air Force.
"Immediately send a telegram to the defenders of Niangzi Pass and ask them to mobilize all their air defense forces to launch a counterattack. At the same time, order the Sixth Fighter Squadron stationed near Niangzi Pass to take off immediately to meet the enemy."
"Liu Haishan, you must immediately take half of the main air force to the sky above Niangzi Pass. Stop the Japanese from bombing Niangzi Pass at all costs. Also, make sure the defenders on the ground are prepared for the Japanese attack."
"Old Li, you will be responsible for repelling the Japanese's ground attack, and I will be responsible for repelling the Japanese's air attack. We will each do our part and we must crush the Japanese's conspiracy!"
Li Yunlong hurriedly came forward and immediately began to inquire about the situation of the garrison at Niangzi Pass. He issued orders in an orderly manner to ensure that Niangzi Pass would not be lost.
22 minutes later, the Japanese bombers arrived over Taiyuan City. The various anti-aircraft firepower points immediately began frantic shooting. A large number of bullets and artillery shells poured out to form a dense air defense network. However, facing the dense attack of the Japanese fighter planes, this anti-aircraft firepower was far from enough. The Japanese fighter planes and dive bombers successfully broke through the interception of the anti-aircraft firepower and launched an operation to clear the anti-aircraft firepower points.
The rumbling sounds of explosions rang out one after another. The ground-to-air confrontation between the enemy and us was very fierce. The main force of the air force regiment ambushed around also launched an attack on the Japanese. The two sides launched an unprecedented air battle. Fighter planes fell every minute. In less than 15 minutes after the war started, our side lost 12 fighter planes and the Japanese lost 16 fighter planes.
"We can't keep fighting like this. We can't win the war by attrition. Immediately order the air force regiment to begin evading. Anti-aircraft rockets will begin firing in salvos in ten minutes to change the current unfavorable situation!"
"The anti-aircraft guns continue to deal with the Japanese bombers, and the anti-aircraft machine guns continue to deal with the Japanese fighters. Reorganize the dense firepower anti-aircraft network. The self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery battalion and the two armored vehicle battalions immediately join the battle. We must stop the Japanese bombing of Taiyuan City at all costs."
"Sanwazi, immediately order all the soldiers guarding the armored train to retreat. We can't stay there any longer. The Japanese have already set their sights on our armored train. If we don't retreat now, we will be unable to retreat!"
Under Lin Zhenhua's command, more and more anti-aircraft firepower joined the attack, catching the Japanese anti-aircraft soldiers off guard. They never dreamed that Lin Zhenhua would be so patient. He had suffered huge casualties before, but he did not even use the hidden anti-aircraft firepower. This was indeed a tough opponent.
"Baga Yalu! Damn the Chinese, they are so insidious that they hid most of their anti-aircraft firepower. Start retreating immediately and find weak points in the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower to attack. We must destroy all the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower points at all costs to clear the obstacles for future bombing operations!"
Colonel Nagayama served as the commander-in-chief of this air raid. Originally, Fujiwara Ichiro was going to go out in person, but there were many things to coordinate in the rear, so Fujiwara Ichiro had to stay in the rear.
"Attack! Attack! Attack quickly!"
