Chapter 637: You cant escape even if you have wings!
"Lao Li, Lao Xing, you have been studying this all afternoon."
"Have you figured out a way to kill these devils?"
Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong and Xing Zhiguo and asked.
Wang Dehou on the side frowned and his eyes looked thoughtful. It would be very difficult to kill these Japs!
Li Yunlong deliberately gave it away: "Shaked his head, I haven't thought of a good way yet. Do you two have any ideas?"
He asked this question not only to put it off, but also to see if Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou could come up with a better solution.
As the saying goes, three cobblers are as good as Zhuge Liang.
What's more, Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou are both extremely smart people.
Let's brainstorm together to see if there is a better way.
Zhao Gang looked thoughtful and said: "Our new regiment is not familiar with Beiping and Baotou. Shanxi is our home field. My suggestion is to start in Shanxi."
"The Japs only land at Taiyuan Airport?" Wang Dehou stared at the route map drawn by Li Yunlong, "How about we wait for Gu Shoufu's special plane to land and guide the artillery to bomb Taiyuan Airport?"
"This is also a way." Zhao Gang nodded and agreed, "Didn't we hide several mountain cannons and hundreds of cannon shells in Wujin Mountain? It just so happens that they can come in handy this time."
"This method." Xing Zhiguo said, "I have already discussed it with the group leader, and it won't work at all."
"Although we can grasp the exact time when the old devil Gu Shoufu's plane landed at Taiyuan Wusu Airport."
"But when the old Japanese landed, within a few kilometers, there must be heavy defenses on three levels inside and three levels outside."
"It is difficult for our artillery observers to penetrate, let alone guide the artillery attack."
Since the last time Taiyuan's Xincheng Airport was bombed by Li Yunlong's 150mm howitzer extended-range projectile.
Xincheng Airport has not yet been renovated.
Therefore, if the Japanese transport plane wants to fly to Taiyuan, it can only land at Wusu Airport, and the same is true for the information given by Boss Chen.
Wang Dehou said: "What if the members of the Sword Squadron who are good at infiltration and lurking are allowed to carry walkie-talkies three to five days in advance, infiltrate near the airport, and when the Japanese plane lands, call the mountain artillery to bombard the Japanese airport?"
Xing Zhiguo said: "In this way, the special forces members who infiltrated with walkie-talkies will have almost no chance of coming back."
The New Regiment shelled Xincheng Airport twice before.
It's because the Japanese haven't built so many thickened reinforced concrete bunkers and gun towers near Taiyuan.
Therefore, the artillery observers of the Sword Squadron were able to escape smoothly.
But this time the situation is more complicated.
First of all, this time a big figure from the Japs is coming, and the area around the airport must be tightly guarded.
Secondly, once the airport is under shelling, the Japanese will notice that there are artillery observers of the Eighth Route Army near the airport calling for shelling.
When the time comes, the Japanese will conduct a sweeping search, and the observers will definitely be found.
In addition, the Yamamoto special agent team is also in Taiyuan, and one or two members infiltrated near the airport. It can be said that there is no chance of death.
Deputy Commander Xing said things quite conservatively.
"Then adopt the voluntary principle!" Wang Dehou said, "Although this is a fatal mission, I believe that none of the members of the Sword Squadron will not want to perform this mission."
"That's what I said." Xing Zhiguo said, "The members of the Sharp Sword Squadron are all our treasures. We feel heartbroken if we lose one of them."
As soon as Deputy Commander Xing finished speaking, Li Yunlong shook his head slightly.
Although the lives of one or two team members were exchanged for Gu Shoufu and the two Japanese major generals, as well as the accompanying Japanese Zuoguan, it was not a loss.
But unless absolutely necessary, Li Yunlong would not engage in such a business where he would injure the enemy a thousand and lose hundreds to himself.
"There is another way!"
Zhao Gang suddenly said something, and everyone immediately looked at him.
"A few days in advance, I can lurk halfway from the airport to Taiyuan, and use my Barrett large-caliber sniper rifle to kill Gu Hisao!"
What Zhao Gang thought was that the distance from the airport to Taiyuan City was about 10 kilometers, and the Japanese defense in the middle should not be so strict.
His large-caliber sniper rifle has an effective range of 18 kilometers and can sniper from long distances.
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Yunlong said with a serious face: "I firmly oppose it. The method of sniping on the road is simply not feasible. The Japs are riding in armored vehicles. Although your large-caliber sniper rifle can shoot through the Japs."
The armor of the armored vehicle, but we don’t know which vehicle Guhisao sat in or where he sat, so how can you snipe?"
Of course, what Li Yunlong really opposed was Zhao Gang's safety issue.
Regardless of whether Zhao Gang's sniper kill was successful or not, once a shot was fired at that location, there was basically no chance of Zhao Gang surviving.
Let alone exchange Zhao Gang for Gu Shoufu, even if he exchanged the life of Zhao Gang and the Japanese locust, Li Yunlong would never agree.
"This won't work, and that won't work either."
"What do you want to do?"
Although Zhao Gang felt a little annoyed in his heart, he still asked patiently with an expression on his face.
Killing Gu Shoufu's business this time is not only for the business of 32 heavy howitzers, but also to avenge the compatriots in Jinling who died tragically at the hands of the Japanese butcher knife!
So even if he sacrifices himself, Zhao Gang still wants to kill this old devil Gu Shoufu!
It is worth mentioning that Muto Akira, commander of the 2nd Guards Division, who was killed by the New Regiment at Niangziguan Railway Station last year, was also one of the executioners of the Jinling Massacre.
At that time, Hisao Fururu was the division commander of the 6th Division, and Akira Muto was the deputy chief of staff of the Central China Expeditionary Force.
The order for the Jinling Massacre was issued by the Central China Expeditionary Army Headquarters.
"Hey hey hey..."
Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes slightly, with a standard smile on his face:
"The method the deputy commander and I decided was to use anti-aircraft guns to shoot down the Japanese planes!"
"Use anti-aircraft cannons to shoot down Japanese planes?" Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou looked stunned.
"That's right!" Li Yunlong nodded with a confident expression, "Since we know the time and route of Gu Shoufu, the old Japanese, from Peking to Taiyuan, we can set up the anti-aircraft guns halfway and shoot down the old Japanese's plane.
."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Currently, the number of 37mm anti-aircraft guns equipped by the new regiment has reached 40.
The model of this 37mm anti-aircraft gun is the 1939-type 37mm anti-aircraft gun. It is one of the most important medium and low-altitude defense weapons of the Soviet Army, and it is also the most important field air defense weapon of the Volunteer Army.
The performance data is also very good, with an effective shooting height of 3,000 meters, a maximum shooting height of 6,700 meters, and a maximum shooting range of 8,500 meters.
Of course, Li Yunlong liked to use it to shoot at the Japanese infantry.
The artillery firepower had a huge advantage. When the Japanese launched a charge, two heavy machine guns, a 20mm machine gun, and a 37mm anti-aircraft cannon fired at the same time. The firepower was not very exciting, and it directly beat the Japanese infantry into pieces.
The only bad thing is that it's a bit troublesome to clean the battlefield.
When Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou heard this, their eyes lit up.
Zhao Gang said: "The Japanese plane is approaching the airport, so it will probably have to lower its altitude and prepare to land!"
"Generally, the plane starts to lose altitude when it is 400 kilometers away from the airport. The altitude is about 4,000 meters when it is about 50 kilometers away from the airport, and it is about 3,000 meters when it is 30 kilometers away from the airport."
"It is 10 kilometers away from the airport and the altitude is about 1,500 meters."
"If we take action 20 kilometers away from the airport, then the height of the Japanese plane should be about 2,300 meters at this time."
"With the effective shooting height of our 37mm anti-aircraft gun, it is completely within reach."
"Captain." Wang Dehou also nodded and said, "This is a very good idea!"
Mainly because of the high-ranking officials who killed the Japs in the past, either Zhao Gang used long-range shooting with a sniper rifle, or Duan Peng planted bombs on the railway tracks and blew up the Japs and armored vehicles together.
There has never been a high-ranking official who killed the Japs by shooting in the air.
Therefore, Zhao Gang and Wang Dehou didn't even think about it from this aspect.
Li Yunlong also thought about it for an entire afternoon before he figured out this method.
As long as the plane that the old devil Kohisa was riding in dropped to an altitude of 2,000 meters and several 37mm anti-aircraft guns formed a crossfire, there was a high probability that it would be shot down.
Not to mention the firepower network composed of 40 37mm anti-aircraft guns, the probability of shooting down the Japanese plane is even higher.
Zhao Gang even felt that this method was safer than letting him use a sniper rifle to snipe Gu Shoufu.
There is a high probability that the mission can be completed without sacrificing soldiers.
As for whether the task can be completed 100%, no one can guarantee this.
Moreover, there is no need to expose the mountain cannons and cannonballs in Wujin Mountain. These mountain cannons and cannonballs are used to make a fortune, and they will not be used if they can't be used now.
"Then do it!"
Wang Dehou nodded excitedly.
Zhao Gang nodded in agreement and said: "I suggest that in addition to the 40 37mm anti-aircraft guns, 100 20mm machine guns should be brought over. 140 anti-aircraft firepower points will form a powerful firepower network, and it will be impossible for Gushou to escape!"
Although the distance of 2,300 meters is far beyond the effective range of the 20mm machine gun.
But this distance is still within the maximum range of the Oerlikon 20mm cannon.
The maximum range of the Oerlikon 20mm cannon is more than 4,000 meters.
The firepower composed of 100 Oerlikon 20mm machine guns can no longer consider whether the target is within the effective range.
The rain of bullets composed of machine-gun shells directly filled the entire sky!
"That's no problem." Li Yunlong nodded.
With the current transportation capacity of the New Regiment, 100 20mm machine guns can be transported there and sprinkled with water.
Li Yunlong studied the map for a while and said: "Now the area of more than 30 kilometers to the north and south of Taiyuan City is heavily defended by the Japanese. The location where we transport anti-aircraft guns can only be close to Taiyuan for more than 30 kilometers. The rest will be done by
The mules and horses will carry us there, so we need to let the Sword Squadron reconnoiter the route and location first."
The 1939-type 37mm anti-aircraft gun weighs 2,100 kilograms, which is just over 2 tons. It can be dragged along the horse track by several mules or military horses.
However, there are not many horse trails in the mountainous area, so the Sharp Sword Squadron needs to reconnoiter the good spots in advance and determine the location of the ambush Japanese aircraft.
