At the same time, not only the jet fighter Liuye arrived at the South Island, but also some other aircraft units of the Air Force.
For example, take the Yin Er 2 attack aircraft unit. These aircraft are much more vicious than Stukas, especially when they are equipped with large-caliber rockets.
Although they cannot deliver revenge bombs as accurately as the Stuka, the strike capabilities of these aircraft are top-notch. What makes their enemies even more depressed is that this kind of attack aircraft flies faster than the Stuka, and its firepower is more sustained and fierce.
.
Also arriving at the same time were the Butcher fighter units. Although these units were not as powerful as the jet fighter units, they were more reliable, had lower requirements on airports, and were larger in number.
It's just that the mission of these aircraft within the Tang Air Force has changed from competing for air supremacy to covering enemy attacks, and directly participating in ground attacks.
Yes, the powerful Butcher fighter, which was regarded as the main fighter in the Yangmu Empire, has become a second-line nanny in the Tang Air Force, and its main mission has become ground attack.
In the Great Nanwan City, behind a ruin, a group of Mirage goblin soldiers were preparing their lunch. They had lost a third of the city and were still fighting fiercely with the Tang army in the city.
Everyone knows that organized resistance will collapse soon. As the battle continues, the Great South Bay defenders, who lack supplies and have no reinforcements, will be completely defeated within a few days.
But after all, they were guarding their own country's territory, and it was impossible to give up easily. Everyone still held on to a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope that the Tang army's cross-sea attack would sooner or later be unable to succeed.
"Don't worry! The Tang people will soon be unable to fight. Fengjiang was also like this at that time. Even though Zhao Chen fought fiercely, weren't we driven out of Fengjiang in the end?" A Mirage Kingdom who has been to Fengjiang
The officer held the lunch box and comforted his frightened subordinates.
Recently, the sniper activities of the Tang Kingdom have been very frequent. They appear and disappear in the ruins, which has severely damaged the morale of the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom.
But the Mirage Kingdom didn't have any good solutions. First of all, they didn't pay attention to sniper operations. The small number of snipers were treated as treasures and were easily unwilling to be put into use.
In addition, the construction of infantry has never been the focus of the Mirage military. It was actually too late to remember the importance of land warfare until the navy was destroyed.
"Sir, can we really win?" A child in his teens, wearing a military uniform and holding a Cyric Type 1 rifle that was taller than him, asked the officer in a childish voice.
"As long as we fight bravely! Hold on! We will win!" The officer stirred the vegetable soup in the lunch box like pig food with a spoon and continued to encourage his soldiers.
They have lost the power plant, the water plant, and the nearby water wells... So now, all they can rely on is courage.
In the sky, there was a faint sound of the engine of an airplane. If you heard the sound of an airplane at this time, it was almost certainly the Tang Dynasty's airplane.
The Mirage officer raised his head and looked at the sky. It didn't matter. He was so frightened that he almost dropped the lunch box in his hand.
He himself couldn't believe what he saw. He rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe that he could see an extremely familiar plane in the sky: the Butcher!
When he was working as a mercenary in Fengjiang, this kind of aircraft, as Fengjiang's main fighter jet, buzzed annoyingly above his head almost every day.
At that time, this kind of aircraft brought him an inexplicable sense of security, but now to the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom... it is tantamount to the god of death!
"Damn it! Why did the butcher appear here?" He muttered, and then instinctively realized something: "Oh my God! They occupied the airport! It's over... it's all over now!"
Knowing how powerful the Tang State's Air Force was, he immediately felt like the sky was falling! He knew how powerful Fengjiang's Air Force was. He knew in his heart that the Tang State's Air Force... was even more powerful than Fengjiang's Air Force!
"Sir, what's wrong?" Many Mirage soldiers have actually never seen a Butcher fighter. They are much more afraid of Stukas than they are of Butchers.
This mirage officer is not really afraid of the Butcher, he is afraid of the Tang Air Force represented by the Butcher! If the Tang Army is allowed to take control of the land airport, countless Stukas will soon appear in the sky.
Sure enough, the number of Stukas that had been reduced in the past two days has appeared again on a large scale: in fact, they are not from the air force, but the navy aircraft carrier that is about to return has sent a formation of attack aircraft, leaving all the remaining ammunition in the Great South Bay.
.
In order to allow many old aircraft to fly across the ocean on their own, Tang State secretly modified many of the aircraft it owned in advance.
The Stuka, Yin Er 2 and Butcher fighter jets are all equipped with some disposable auxiliary fuel tank devices. These devices can temporarily increase the range of the aircraft, but will be abandoned halfway.
In this way, the Stuka, which has a range of only about 1,000 kilometers, the Yin Er 2, which has a range of only 800 kilometers, and the Butcher, which has a range of less than 800 kilometers, can barely fly to the South Island by itself.
After arriving at the South Island, these aircraft underwent a certain level of maintenance and began to participate in battles one after another the next day.
As for those aircraft that have not been modified, they have to be transported to the South Island by sea. Their entry into the war will obviously be later, and there is no way around it.
Because it is impossible for the Tang Army to modify all the aircraft, it is definitely not worth the gain. After all, these aircraft are to be eliminated, and the modification now is a complete waste of resources.
In fact, the main force of the Tang Air Force that really came across the sea were hundreds of Flying Fortress strategic bombers.
These aircraft can only carry about two tons of explosives when performing long-range cross-ocean bombing missions, and most of the load can only be wasted on fuel.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now, these planes can easily take off from the airport on the South Island, loaded with bombs, so that the ground forces of the Mirage know what a real bomb truck is.
The scene of the plane opening its magazine and aerial bombs falling like raindrops was taken when this type of strategic bomber was performing close-range bombing missions!
"Sir?" When his subordinates saw that their commander was silent, they bravely called out again. This time, the Mirage officer broke away from his fear: "I'm fine! I just saw... I saw that aircraft
The plane was a little, a little distracting."
He didn't explain anything to his men, because he couldn't explain it clearly for a moment. He just sighed, and then said this without any end: "Soon, we will be in trouble."
Unexpectedly, his words came true. Early the next morning, the Tang Army's Flying Fortress bombers paid a visit full of bombs.
This time, the number of bombs dropped by Tang Jun's planes was more than three times that before! Countless bombs were dropped into the Great South Bay, and almost no complete houses and buildings could be found in the entire city.
Mirage Wuzhong's whole body was numb. He guessed that Tang Jun would repair the bombed airports, but what he didn't expect was that the other party would repair them so quickly.
After all, Mirage Wuzhong is also a man who has seen the world. When he saw the Butcher fighter jet, he knew that the Tang people's air strike power would be enhanced.
But he never expected that the opponent's attack would increase so quickly. His troops were completely unprepared, and hundreds of bombs fell on the heads of the mirage army.
Immediately, the Mirage Army was in disarray. With the support of more than a dozen Stukas and more than a dozen Yin Er attack aircraft, the Tang Army quickly attacked and occupied about half of the urban area by nightfall.
Mirage Wuzhong, who had established a headquarters in the center of the city, was forced to move his headquarters to the east of the city and continued to organize street battles among Mirage troops.
But even he could clearly feel it: the Mirage Army's organization was collapsing, its combat effectiveness was severely reduced, and there was no point in continuing to persevere.
"I have no regrets anymore." Looking at the map, Mirage Wuzhong said to his officers with a wry smile.
He had ordered the bombing of all the ports and terminals in the Great South Bay more than ten days ago, and even the warehouses on the shore were not spared.
Under his order, Mirage's engineers blew up everything they could. Although Mirage's combat troops were on the verge of collapse in the past few days, they destroyed everything they could before collapse.
Frankly speaking, the damage done by the Tang Army to the South Island was far inferior to that of the Mirage Army themselves. Some things that the Tang Army did not have the heart to do, the Mirage people themselves did more decisively than anyone else.
The mirage army will burn down people's houses when retreating, blow up their own weapons, and even destroy heavy weapons that cannot be taken away.
Heavy artillery with its barrels blown out, cars with many parts removed, and scrapped machine guns can be seen everywhere on the battlefield.
In addition, the mirage army also burned the food that could not be eaten or taken away. They seemed to want to increase the logistical pressure on the Tang army and force the Tang army to collapse first after crossing the sea.
It is a pity that although they defended their walls and even killed each other, they still could not stop the Tang army from advancing.
"I just received a call from Mirage Takejiro. His troops have been ordered to start retreating to the north of the island. Our reinforcements will not come." After finishing his wry smile, Mirage Takeuchi told the main content of this meeting.
This is also the reason why he is so bitter now: the base camp has completely abandoned the South Island, and the 3rd Corps will not... nor will it continue southward. Mirage Wu Zhong's 2nd Corps has been completely abandoned.
"The order given to us by the base camp is... hold our position until the last soldier!" He looked at his subordinates who were either frustrated or frightened, and said the Mirage Emperor's order word by word: "Mirage
Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Long live the Mirage! For our country! We must fight to the end!"
