The roar of aircraft in the sky suddenly increased. Brigadier Tian looked up and saw an aircraft diving towards him at a very fast speed.
"Disperse and hide, avoid air strikes..."
Brigadier Tian was startled and shouted loudly. At the same time, he held his head and rushed towards the trench, pressing his whole body to the ground to reduce the damage that the shock wave might cause to his body.
"Woooooooo..."
The screams of aerial bombs piercing the sky soon rang in their ears.
Everyone's hearts were raised at this moment, welcoming the coming explosion...
"Rumble..."
A thunderous explosion soon rang in his ears.
To everyone's surprise, the aerial bombs falling from the sky did not hit the Eighth Route Army's blocking position, but instead hit the Japanese attacking troops.
Brigadier Tian looked puzzled and said to himself: "What's going on?"
"Why do little Japanese planes drop bombs on their heads..."
Commander Chen also looked puzzled, shook his head and replied: "The little Japanese plane in the sky blew up the wrong target..."
"It shouldn't be..."
"They belong to the offensive side, and we belong to the defensive side. Unless the little Japanese pilot is blind, there is no way he can blow up the wrong target..."
"There must be other reasons."
…………
The kid who got hit by an aerial bomb was going crazy.
More than 3,000 reinforcements heading north were killed by the Eighth Route Army's firepower surprise attack. Hundreds more were lost in the subsequent attack, and the total force was directly reduced to more than 1,500 people.
The troop strength was not enough to begin with, but one bomb dropped by the aviation force wiped out most of its squadron.
The commander of the regiment, Colonel Nanguchi, was so angry that he cursed his mother.
"Bageya Road, I must send a telegram to the Commander to accuse the aviation force..."
"Both the enemy and we are so far apart and can blow up the wrong target. Are our eyes going blind...?"
"Hurry up and wave the military flag and tell the aviation forces in the sky that we are our own..."
"If you bomb the wrong target again, get back to the airport. We don't need air support that will only be of no help."
Colonel Nankou gave an order, and the Japanese and puppet troops quickly took out the military flags representing their identities.
Looking down from the sky, the Japanese military positions are filled with waving military flags and plaster flags, which are particularly conspicuous...
"Buzz buzz..."
Another plane roared and dived towards the ground. Everyone, including the commander of the wing, Colonel Minamiguchi, stared at the rapidly diving plane with their heads raised, waving military flags in their hands to prevent them from bombing the wrong target again.
"Woooooooo..."
The two aerial bombs broke away from the fuselage at the same time and flew down to the ground with a piercing scream.
Colonel Nankou's face suddenly turned pale, and he cried out: "Bagya Road, what do the aviation soldiers do for food? They dropped aviation bombs on our heads again. Are their eyes frightened..."
"The offensive troops dispersed immediately to avoid the air attack... boom, boom..."
Before the order was fully spoken, thunderous explosions sounded in their ears, and two huge fireballs rose up among the attacking troops again.
In the rapidly spreading smoke, with the bullet impact point as the center, all the soldiers within a radius of thirty meters were either dead or injured, and they all fell in a pool of blood...
"Buzz buzz..."
Colonel Nanguchi's eyes turned red when he saw it. He clenched his hands into fists and his nails almost dug into his flesh. He felt aggrieved and angry. But before he could curse, the roar of the plane overhead increased again.
This time two planes dived towards the ground at the same time.
One plane went straight towards the Japanese and puppet attacking troops, while the other plane had a more obvious target and dived directly towards the Japanese and puppet artillery positions.
The angry expression on Colonel Nanguchi's face immediately turned into panic.
Mountain and field artillery are the basis for attacking the Eighth Route Army's blocking troops.
If something happens to them and they are blown up by a plane in the sky, not only will they not be able to continue going north to support the Tianjin Terminal, but they may not even be able to save their own lives.
He quickly shouted: "The artillery unit is in danger..."
"Let them move immediately..."
"The offensive troops dispersed and moved together to avoid air attacks..."
"There is a problem with the aviation forces in the sky..."
"It shouldn't be one of our own..."
"It's very possible that they came here to support the Eighth Route Army..."
"Woooooooooooo...boom..."
No matter how fast the artillery transfer speed is, it cannot be faster than the flight speed of aerial bombs.
Two huge fireballs soared into the sky from the artillery position. It took a second before a thunderous explosion spread from the artillery position.
The two field guns hit by aerial bombs were blown up on the spot like toys and dismembered into parts in the air.
Several nearby artillery pieces were not spared, and were all blown over in the explosion.
The gunners were even more brutal.
Many people were blown to death without even uttering a scream. Some people were hit by aerial bombs and were blown to pieces on the spot. Not even a body was left behind.
Colonel Nanguchi collapsed on the ground, his face full of despair.
"Buzz buzz..."
Before he could react from the shock, two more planes launched air attacks on the artillery position and the attacking troops from different directions.
…………
The Eighth Route Army blocking position.
Brigadier Tian was confused by the accident in front of him.
To be honest, he was already prepared for his troops to suffer heavy losses in the air raid. As a result, the plane overhead dropped all aerial bombs on the Japanese and puppet troops.
If there were only one or two aerial bombs, everyone could still think that they had misunderstood and dropped them by mistake.
More than ten consecutive aerial bombs were dropped on the heads of the Japanese and puppet troops, which successfully severely damaged the Japanese and puppet offensive troops and artillery units. They were launching attacks on their main force. It would be impossible to explain the misunderstanding.
Captain Chen's face was full of doubts. He frowned and asked Brigadier Tian: "Brigade Commander..."
"Did we instigate the rebellion of the Little Japanese Air Force?"
"You're so big..." Brigadier Tian asked angrily.
"The little Japanese aviation troops are either in the sky or staying at the airport under heavy military protection. We can't even see them. How can we instigate rebellion..."
"These aircraft should be our own Air Force of the Eighth Route Army..."
"In order to keep it secret, only a few cadres of our Eighth Route Army know about the flying group. I happened to hear the commander say..."
"Not only did the Japs have planes on the North China battlefield, our Eighth Route Army also had its own air force, which was formed using aircraft captured by the Yizhong Eighth Route Army at Taiyuan Airport."
"Because the number of aircraft is too small and their combat effectiveness is too low, they mainly focus on training pilots, so they rarely participate in combat."
"Unexpectedly, in order to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from moving north to reinforce the Tianjin dock, the superiors even sent out precious flying regiments."
"Immediately tell your comrades that the planes in the sky are our Eighth Route Army's own air force, so don't worry."
"The whole army is ready for counterattack..."
"After the plane bombing, the Japanese and puppet troops on the battlefield must have suffered heavy losses. Maybe we can launch a major counterattack by the Japanese and puppet troops under the cover of the air force and end the battle in one battle."
