754 Carpet Bombing
"Come from Yangcheng?"
The Japanese colonel was still thinking.
He instinctively thought that these fighter planes flying from the south were most likely from the 23rd Army stationed in Yangcheng.
At this time, the old devil Tanaka Hisaichi concealed the truth about the destruction of the 7th Flying Regiment from their headquarters.
At this moment, let alone the Japanese generals on the front line, even the old Japanese like Nishio Hisazo didn't know that they no longer had any fighter planes in Yangcheng.
Under such circumstances, the Japanese colonel now regarded Ye Qingshan's bomber formation as their own aircraft group.
Also normal.
But soon, the Japanese colonel discovered something was wrong.
He discovered that these "his own" fighter planes flew over the sky above Shaoguan and headed straight towards them.
Moreover, it is flying higher and higher.
Their bombers are not supposed to be able to fly so high.
The Japanese colonel felt something was wrong and looked through the telescope for a long time before his face suddenly changed.
"Baga, this isn't our fighter.
It's a Chinese bomber.
"Scatter!"
The Japanese colonel issued an evacuation order in panic.
After receiving the order, the other Japanese officers were stunned for a moment before they reacted.
For a moment, the Japanese devils on the road became panicked.
Many people fled from the main road and hid in the surrounding farmland and forests.
Whoosh whoosh!
Unfortunately, these devils on the ground had just begun to evacuate.
In the sky, more than twenty B17 and B24 bombers that had already flown above their heads opened their hatches.
From high altitude, heavy high-explosive bombs began to be dropped from the sky.
The bomb made a sharp whistling sound when it fell.
It's like the death note sent by the god of death.
Boom boom boom!
When these heavy high-explosive bombs landed, there was a loud explosion, creating small mushroom clouds on the ground.
"Pretty!"
In the sky, Meng Jifei, Johnson and others saw this scene and praised with a smile.
But at this moment, these Japanese soldiers on the ground felt like they were in hell.
The explosions of those high-explosive bombs, which weighed hundreds or even thousands of pounds, were powerful enough to kill every living thing within a radius of several kilometers.
The huge shock wave produced by the explosion can blow people away from hundreds of meters away.
According to the experience of Johnson and others, only a few of the Japanese soldiers on the ground who were bombed by them would survive.
"Let's go to the next place!"
After bombing this Japanese transport convoy.
They carried a lot of bombs and continued to search the sky for traces of other Japanese troops.
After discovering it, they rushed over and dropped bombs.
"Baga, where did the Chinese bomber come from?
What kind of bomber is that? Why is it so big? "
The commander of the 22nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese army, Mishan Milu, currently has his headquarters on a hilltop northeast of Shaoguan.
Of course, he also saw with his own eyes the group of bombers that had just flown over their heads.
I was very scared at that time.
When he saw the B17 and B24 behind him dropping so many high-explosive bombs crazily.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
It was the first time that he encountered such a huge bomber when fighting in China.
"Baka, that can't possibly be a Chinese bomber.
They don’t have bombers that big.”
Mishan Milu roared with a gloomy face.
At the same time, I felt a little scared.
Just now, his command center was exposed.
The bombers flew over his headquarters and dropped a bunch of bombs.
Then today, he is sure to die here.
"Your Excellency, Commander of the Brigade, this must be the bomber that Ye Qingshan borrowed from Britain and the United States.
Don’t forget that the Joseph family, into which Ye Qingshan married, now has business relations with many conglomerates in the United States.
Ye Qingshan also has a good relationship with the American military.
Get some big Yankee bombers, no problem."
The Japanese chief of staff next to him expressed his guess.
This is exactly what Mishan Milu was thinking.
"Baga, Ye Qingshan is a gigolo."
Mishan and Milu cursed, but they were extremely envious and jealous in their hearts.
Why doesn't he have as good a life as Ye Qingshan?
"Quick, notify our artillery positions to take cover immediately.
Don't let them be spotted by Chinese bombers."
Mishan Milu shouted urgently.
This would be the case if the artillery positions they had just set up outside the city were exposed to the eyes of these bomber pilots.
That's definitely gone.
“Ouch!
It's our bomber."
At this moment, the morale of the national army soldiers in Shaoguan City was greatly boosted.
At first they also thought that the group of planes flying in the sky were Japanese bombers.
They were all ready to rush over and fight the Japanese in close combat.
In this way, the Japanese bombers in the sky would not dare to drop bombs on them easily.
But in the end, the bombers behind flew directly to the north of Shaoguan city and started dropping bombs there.
Although it was far away, the sound of the heavy bomb exploding was too loud.
The national army soldiers in Shaoguan heard it clearly.
Even if they could, they couldn't see the scene of the Japanese being bombed.
But you can still imagine it with your imagination.
The Japanese must have been badly bombed.
After all, when it comes to being bombed by the Japanese, the National Army has more experience than the Japanese.
The national army soldiers in Shaoguan City did not have this chance to see the sight.
However, to the northwest of Shaoguan, another regiment of Kuomintang soldiers were preparing to block the enemy's 9th Mixed Brigade.
I could clearly see the scene of the Japanese being bombed.
"Oh my goodness, this... is this really our bomber?
How could so many bombs be dropped?
This is much more powerful than the Japanese bombers. "
Those Kuomintang soldiers were extremely shocked when they saw the B17 and B24 dropping large numbers of high-explosive bombs from the sky.
They had also been bombed by the Japanese bombers before.
But none of the Japanese bombers were as big as the ones they saw before them.
It can carry so many bombs.
"Why bother with so much? This is not something we should be thinking about.
It must be a new thing the Commander got from the Yankees."
Someone said with a smile.
They were in a very good mood seeing the Japanese being bombed.
“Yes, the little devils also have this day.
Come on, Air Force brothers, blow them up."
In the following hour or so, the bomber group commanded by Meng Jifei targeted the Japanese troops that appeared on the few roads north of Shaoguan.
Whether it is infantry or logistics transport teams.
They were all blown up.
Carpet bombing!
More than twenty B17s and B24s carried more than tons of bombs this time.
Almost all of them have maximum ammunition load.
At the same time, they cleared out all the bombs that Ye Qingshan had the logistics supply convoy transported with great effort.
This can definitely be counted as the first time since the Anti-Japanese War.
This was the largest-scale bombing against the Japanese organized by the National Army.
Even during the Battle of Shanghai, more than 300,000 Japanese soldiers had never received such treatment.
Today, we ran into two mixed brigades of the Japanese.
