Chapter 186: Tuan Zuo, I have dozens more fighter planes! (Third update!)
“Sir, you are so amazing, the Japs actually sent reinforcements.” In a bush leading to Yangon Airport, a native said to Long Wenwen with admiration.
“Sir, how did you determine that the Japs would send reinforcements?”
Hearing this, a smile flashed across Long Wenwen's face.
"The little devil only has three axes. After thinking about it thoroughly, that's all."
“Don’t think that the little devils are so awesome, they are not that powerful.”
“But why did Sir Sun and the others fail?”
This sentence left Long Wenzhang speechless. He could only explain that the other party was too careless.
“Okay, the Japs are coming soon. Let each unit prepare and try to wipe out this team of Japs in one go.” Long Wenwen ordered.
He is very familiar with surrounding areas to call for reinforcements.
So when attacking the airport, he guessed that the Japs would definitely send reinforcements.
After all, the troops attacking the airport are all artillery regiments, and their firepower is also very powerful.
Especially the members of the volunteer team serve as the backbone, and their combat effectiveness is quite good.
At least some of the natives tried to retreat and were killed on the spot.
At this moment, Captain Takeda, who had received the order, was leading the ninth squadron towards the location of the gunfire.
As a result, halfway through, we met the natives who had fled back. They said that the enemy's firepower was too fierce.
The natives who were responsible for building the airport were frightened and ran away directly.
This made Captain Takeda a little confused. When did the resistance army become so powerful?
But he looked at the constant explosions in the distance.
The murmur in his heart became even more serious. Is it really not the rebels? But the Sichuan Army?
With this thought in mind, Captain Takeda asked the troops to speed up.
He had no idea that there was an army waiting for him to step into an ambush on both sides of the road ahead.
"Hit..." The dense bullets hit directly in the middle of the Japanese army, instantly dividing the Japanese army into two sections.
At the same time, do not wait for the Japanese army to react.
Mortars also greeted the Japanese troops.
Many Japanese troops were directly blown up.
Immediately afterwards, there was more intensive gunfire.
Bullets rained down on the Japanese in the middle of the road like raindrops, and many of the Japanese hiding in the jungle were directly killed.
Captain Takeda was just about to order his men to find bunkers, but it was too late. The 81mm mortar shells kept falling like raindrops, and the explosions caused the Japanese troops to flee.
When the explosion was over, hundreds more grenades struck. After a burst of explosions, the enemy was already in front of them.
Concentrated bullets struck again, and this style of attack directly stunned Captain Takeda.
Why is the firepower of a guerrilla army so powerful?
“Your Excellency, Captain, the enemy’s firepower is too powerful and we can’t stop it at all.” The subordinate said in horror.
“Baga, retreat.” Without saying a word, Captain Takeda immediately ordered the troops to start withdrawing to Yangon.
As for supporting the airport?
forget it!
Save your life first.
Long Wenwen did not send troops to chase the opponent, but instead asked people to immediately put on Japanese military uniforms and weapons and equipment.
“Hurry up, put some blood on your face, and pretend to be a little more serious for a while, don’t expose your secrets.”
If it were the Sichuan Army Corps, they would probably have to select personnel.
After all, the Japanese soldiers are not very tall, but the Sichuan Army has quite a lot of tall people.
But these natives are different, they are about the same height as the Japanese soldiers.
So there is no way to see any flaws in pretending to be a Japanese soldier.
“Remember, we are the Ninth Squadron, my name is Takeda Jiro, don’t call me wrong.” Long Wenwen also changed to the rank of Japanese captain.
Originally, he planned to ambush the Japanese squadron, and then take advantage of the enemy's escape to the airport to cover up and capture the airport.
Who would have known that this group of Japanese troops directly changed direction and ran back to Yangon instead of going to the airport.
This ruined his plan, so he came up with another plan, which was to pretend to be a Japanese army to see if he could deceive the Japanese army.
After all, at this time, the Japanese troops at the airport did not know that the supporting Japanese troops had been defeated.
The main focus is a time difference.
While the Japanese didn't react, they took advantage of the situation and rushed into the airport.
“Hai.” A native responded quickly.
“Yo Xi, you have great potential.” Long Wenwen praised him in a bad Japanese way.
This is what he learned from Lin Yi in Myitkyina. Although it is very poor, it is definitely enough for use.
Not long after, a troop of more than a hundred people ran toward the airport in a hurry.
When we came to the back of the airport, we found that it was heavily guarded.
“Baga, open the door quickly, we are ambushed.” Long Wenwen recited this sentence all the way, so he was particularly skilled at saying it at this time.
The alert Japanese soldiers, because it was dark, and Long Wenwen's face was gray and stained with blood, did not recognize that he was pretending. They only hesitated slightly and wanted to ask a few more questions.
“Bagaya Road, open the door quickly, we are ambushed.” As he said this, Long Wenwen slapped him angrily.
The Japanese soldier, who was dizzy after being slapped, stood at attention and saluted.
"Hai, Sir Captain, I will open the door for you." The wooden gate was opened immediately.
Finally, something was wrong, because Long Wenwen was looking at him with half-smiling eyes.
"Baga..." The Japanese soldier wanted to speak, but he saw a bright light flash by.
His heart stopped instantly and breathing became extremely difficult.
Other Japanese soldiers also noticed something was wrong and were about to shoot.
As a result, we saw countless dense bullets coming.
Da da da!
Da da da!
Da da da!
In an instant, the Japanese soldiers on guard fell to the ground one after another.
“Kill, capture the airport as quickly as possible.” After Long Wenwen finished speaking, he took the lead in the charge and rushed towards the interior of the airport.
The soldiers behind him also followed closely.
I have to say that in every war, Long Wenwen takes the lead and is a very good example.
Morale has always been high.
However, due to his inability to take into account the overall situation, his troops suffered the greatest casualties.
Half an hour later, after successfully taking over the airport.
After an inventory, it was found that over a thousand people were killed in order to capture the airport.
There is no way. Although the Japanese army does not have many troops, its military quality is definitely far beyond that of these natives.
The only difference between the two sides is equipment.
But for these natives, the beautiful equipment with no bullets is not as good as a fire stick, let alone any tactical coordination. In other words, the Kachin warriors recruited by Long Wenwen were slightly better. With their flexible bodies, the casualties were not very large, but the other indigenous people were indescribable.
“Excellent, excellent, well done, five for one, it’s worth it.” Long Wenwen didn’t care about these casualties.
For him, it was completely worth it to take over the airport at the cost of a thousand people.
“Sir, what should we do with these fighter planes?” a soldier asked.
Hearing this, Long Wenwen hesitated for a moment, and then said.
“Send a telegram to the regiment and ask him to find a way to send pilots over and fly these fighters back?”
“How many racks are there?”
“There are close to fifty, some of them are bombers.”
“So many fighters cannot be wasted. Let the regiment find a way to fly them back. From now on, our task is to guard these planes.” Long Wenwen solemnly said.
“In addition, three more regiments will be mobilized to attack Yangon to put pressure on the Japanese army.”
"yes."
…
“This is dead, this is going to really give me a problem.” In the middle of the night, Cun Yunsheng, who was pulled up from the bed, naturally had a bad look on his face and yawned all the time.
I was speechless when I heard that Long Wenwen sent a telegram asking him to send pilots.
How to send someone in the middle of the night?
The failure rate for night takeoffs these days is frighteningly high.
Not to mention, without radar guidance, it is easy to get lost when flying at night.
But when he saw fifty fighter planes, Cun Yunsheng fell silent.
Originally, he was still thinking, where to get fighter planes?
Now that we have the fighter planes, it’s just a little troublesome to transport them back.
The number of pilots he has in hand is full, and it seems that there are only fifty of them.
Most of them are rookies, and they are probably barely able to fly fighter planes into the sky. As for fighting?
Forget it!
Only those dozen pilots have combat experience.
“Tuanzu? Do you want to give up?” Meng Fanxiao asked hesitantly.
“Hmph, how can you let go of the meat that reaches your mouth?” Cun Yunsheng shook his head and then said.
“Fetch me the air force.”
"yes."
Soon, the call to the aviation team was answered, and a loud voice came from the other end.
“Commander, what are your instructions?”
“You haven’t slept yet?” Cun Yunsheng said some pleasantries first.
"I was just preparing materials for tomorrow's training. Do you have any tasks?" Zhang Yang continued.
“Well, there is a mission that requires you to take all the pilots with you.” Cun Yunsheng then told Long Wenwen about the seizure of a batch of fighter planes.
Hearing that there were fifty fighters, including heavy bombers, Zhang Yang was extremely excited.
Had it not been dark now, I would have taken off immediately.
"Don't be excited. When it gets a little brighter, immediately send people to Yangon Airport the night before to transport all the fighter planes there. In addition, in order to prevent the bombing of Japanese fighter planes, at least ten fighter planes will take off to escort. You must do this in person. Bring those fighters back," Cun Yunsheng warned again.
“Yes, please rest assured and promise to complete the task.” Zhang Yang said excitedly.
After hanging up the phone, sound the combat alarm immediately.
The pilots who were still asleep heard the siren and immediately jumped out of bed, quickly put on their clothes, and ran towards the door.
The most confused ones are the rookie pilots.
The Japanese army is coming?
It shouldn’t be!
Can the Japanese army conduct night bombings?
Returning, his movements were very sharp, and wearing clothes ran towards the door.
In the end, I saw Zhang Yang standing downstairs.
Zhang Yang glanced at his watch. It took three minutes, which was not bad.
“Not bad, you performed very well, I have a mission.” Zhang Yang then told him about his mission to pick up the plane.
After hearing this, all the pilots looked excited.
Meaning that from now on, the aviation fleet will no longer be short of aircraft.
All the pilots were too excited to sleep and began to sit and wait for dawn.
…
"Nani? What did you say, the airport was lost?" This time, Hebian Zhengzo was completely panicked. He did not expect that the enemy would attack so fast. In just a few hours, the airport was captured.
Is this still the same indigenous resistance army?
When did they have such a powerful fighting force?
More importantly, the other party actually attacked the troops sent for reinforcements halfway.
And pretending to be ambushed reinforcements, easily deceived the outer guard line of defense.
This made Hebian Zhengzo extremely panicked. You must know that the absence of the airport means that fighter planes will not be able to take off during the day. Without fighter planes, it will not be so easy for him to defend Yangon.
"Baga, who are these enemies? Can anyone see clearly?" Zhengsan walked back and forth by the river, cursing constantly.
He believed that this army was definitely not a simple resistance army, and there must be Sichuan Legion members.
An indigenous resistance army actually knows tactics and has so many beautiful weapons and equipment?
This is absolutely impossible!
He even suspected that it was the Sichuan Legion pretending to be.
Huntong Yahara on the side also looked helpless. He was also curious about who this enemy was and why they had such strong fighting power.
In addition to heavy artillery and tanks, they have all the weapons required for fine art equipment, and the firepower density is far beyond their imagination.
Not only that, he also knows tactics and can encircle points to provide reinforcements.
Seeing the reinforcements withdrawing to Yangon, the reinforcements immediately pretended to be ambushed. This kind of emergency command ability is definitely not understood by a group of illiterate natives.
So he also suspected that the Sichuan Army was behind this incident.
Two squadrons were lost in one breath. Now the troops that can be used in Yangon City are very few, and it is difficult to defend Yangon.
Especially without the airport and air support, they are already much weaker than their opponent in terms of firepower.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I suggest you consider retreating. The enemy's goal should be Yangon. With our current strength, we simply cannot hold Yangon unless Mandalay's 55th Division is allowed to move south immediately." Yahara Hiromichi said.
"Baga, we must not retreat. You know that losing Rangoon means that the 15th Army is completely gone. You and I are both a shame to the Imperial Army of Japan." Kawabe Shozo cannot accept this reality and it is absolutely impossible to retreat. .
"However, we now only have six squadrons left, and we need to defend the entire Sunshine City, and our firepower is not as good as the opponent's. I even suspect that behind them is the Sichuan Army. Otherwise, why would a group of indigenous people have such strong combat effectiveness." Eight Yuan Botong persuaded again.
"Ask the 55th Division to immediately mobilize one regiment, not two, and take the train south to support Yangon as quickly as possible." Hebian Zhengsan still disagreed with the retreat, and finally chose to let the 55th Division The regiment divided its troops and went south for reinforcements.
Hearing this, Yahara Hiromichi did not refute. At present, there is no problem in guarding Yangon for three to five days. At the speed of the train, it can be reached in one day at most. By then, the crisis in Yangon will naturally be relieved.
The only thing we have to do is to hold on for the past few days, and we must not lose Yangon, otherwise the support going south will become a joke.
"Your Excellency, Commander, I suggest that we ask for the help of the navy. Let them take off fighter planes at dawn and bomb the defenders at the airport to see if they can recapture the airport. There are dozens of fighter planes there." Yahara Hiromichi's words made Kawabe Shozo's His face was extremely ugly.
