Taking off for bombing at night was more troublesome than during the day, but Wang Kang still completed the preparations for the battle within an hour.
As eight JH-7s appeared at the end of the runway, all preparations for the air attack were completed. They were just waiting for Liu Xiao's order for the eight planes to take off.
As the leader of the First Flight Regiment, Wang Kang carried out the night air raid mission for the first time. As the leader, he naturally had to take the lead, so he sat in the cockpit of the first aircraft, the J-H-7, with those from the tower.
Liu Xiao made the final contact.
"Flying Leopard is ready, can it take off?"
"It's okay to take off. I wish you a safe journey and a prosperous military fortune."
"Feibao understands."
Then the JH-7s began to taxi on the runway, and then one, then two,..., a total of 8 aircraft flew into the sky.
After the JH-7s led by Wang Kang took to the sky, they formed a formation over the airport, then identified the target and flew towards Changchun in the northeast.
Since they were flying at night, the distance between the J-H-7s was larger than before.
And because it was dark, it was impossible to see the landmark buildings on the ground, so these eight aircraft could only rely on the aircraft's own navigation radar to fly.
However, in the current Qing Dynasty plane, there are no satellites in the sky, so although these eight aircraft have advanced navigation systems, they are still more than 30 kilometers away from the target.
Finally, these eight planes patrolled the sky and finally found the direction of Changchun City.
When Wang Kang reappeared over Changchun City with 8 fighter planes, he found that Changchun City was now completely dark.
They had no guidance in the air and could hardly find any target.
However, Wang Kang did not feel discouraged. He slowly lowered the altitude with his fighter plane to only more than 1,000 meters above the ground, and then slowed down to patrol over Changchun City.
Finally, a flickering light in the distance caught his attention.
Since he can't find any other target and only this place is so bright, then he is unlucky.
So Wang Kang took 8 fighter planes and headed straight for the target, and then 8 planes began to drop bombs one after another over the target.
This relatively prosperous courtyard was bombarded by more than 30 heavy bombs in an instant and was immediately razed to the ground.
Wang Kang took the plane and circled over the target again before leaving Changchun and returning to the base.
After Wang Kang left, figures finally appeared one after another among the ruins in the courtyard.
It turned out that after the bombing in the morning, these Russian officers, no matter how stupid they were, knew that the attack came from the sky.
Moreover, when the JH-7 lowers its altitude, the roar of the engine can be heard far away in the silent night.
Therefore, when Wang Kang arrived in Changchun, the remaining Tsarist Russian generals in the headquarters already knew that something was wrong.
Therefore, under the leadership of Lieutenant General Strelnikov, these people rolled and crawled out of the yard.
But before they all left, bombs fell from the sky.
In this way, except for 78 of these dozen senior generals who survived by chance, the rest were buried here, in the small courtyard.
Lieutenant General Strelnikov didn't know whether it was luck or something, but he once again survived this bombing.
But now the general was trembling with fear. He had never experienced such a danger. He might die in just a few minutes.
After everyone had calmed down for a while in the cold night, and the Rakshasa soldiers heard explosions everywhere and came to support, they took these generals away from this dangerous place again.
After Lieutenant General Strelnikov was placed in a rediscovered private house, he sat alone in the darkness, still trembling all over.
I really can't stay in this place any longer. My life is in danger at any time. Staying here for a day is a torment.
Lieutenant General Strelnikov was determined to break out of the encirclement tomorrow no matter what. As for the troops who were cut off from the rear, it was naturally not a problem. Many high-ranking officers died today, so they would let their troops cut off the rear tomorrow.
As long as he can escape and return to St. Petersburg, he can do anything.
In this way, after a night of fear and fear, Lieutenant General Strelnikov finally made it to daylight.
However, the lieutenant general now understood that he was more vulnerable to bombing during the day, so he did not dare to wear his very gorgeous lieutenant general uniform. Instead, he randomly found an ordinary soldier's military uniform and wore it.
After that, the lieutenant general directly ordered the 2nd Division and the 8th Division to be the breakout troops. The other troops began to gather towards Changchun North City. After having a good meal, they began to break out around 11 o'clock in the morning.
Lu Chun, who was outside the city, didn't know that the enemy was ready to break out. In his impression, he had surrounded the enemy forces in Changchun City and was in a desperate situation. As long as he worked hard in the next two days, he could
Destroy this enemy.
Therefore, after eating in the morning, the artillery on the Hunan Army's side began to roar again.
However, since there were many Qing people in Changchun City, the scope of the shelling this time was limited to the vicinity of the city wall. The purpose was to collapse the city wall to provide convenient conditions for the subsequent siege.
Ancient city walls were mainly used to defend against cold weapons. To be honest, the defense against hot weapons, especially large-caliber artillery, was not very ideal.
Therefore, after only half an hour of bombing, several sections of the walls of Changchun City collapsed.
Next, the two divisions arranged by Lu Chun quickly approached the city wall under the cover of artillery fire.
Some soldiers were lying on the ground more than 100 meters away from the city wall, either setting up percussion cannons or using light and heavy machine guns to provide fire support to the soldiers in front.
Some soldiers still held their semi-automatic rifles and quickly launched a final attack on the city wall.
Generally speaking, at this time, the soldiers of the Rakshasa Kingdom should start shooting to block the Hunan Army's attack.
But now there is still silence on the city wall.
Lu Chun, who was watching from behind, felt a little uneasy when he saw the quiet city wall. Could it be that there was an ambush by the Rakshasa Army?
As the front group of soldiers approached the gap in the city wall, they rushed to block the city wall, but there was still no movement in the city.
At this point, Lu Chun's heart was in his throat.
Soon more and more Hunan Army soldiers poured into the city wall through several gaps, but no ambush occurred in the city. Only then did Lu Chun breathe a sigh of relief.
As a result, before Lu Chun could take a breath, a series of explosions occurred from inside the wall.
It turned out that Lieutenant General Strelnikov also arranged some troubles for the attacking Hunan Army in order to evacuate safely. He placed a large number of explosives at the south gate facing the Hunan Army.
The soldiers of the Rakshasa Kingdom knew that there were a large number of explosives lurking here, so they did not dare to approach the South City Gate. Therefore, the soldiers of the Hunan Army easily rushed into the city.
However, the Hunan Army's good luck ended here. Thousands of people who rushed into the city were immediately caught in the explosion and suffered heavy losses.
Seeing this situation, Lu Chun remembered throwing the telescope in his hand on the ground, and then roared at the staff officer on the side: "Bring me the individual cloudburst bombs up, I don't believe these Rakshasa anymore."
Everyone is made of iron."
The staff officers on the side saw their commander gnashing his teeth and his eyes were red. They knew that he had lost his mind, so they quickly stepped forward to advise him. Otherwise, if the individual cloudburst bombs were really transported into the city, a large number of people would probably be produced.
casualties of innocent civilians.
"Commander, this is our own city in front of us. If this killer weapon is used, the final loss will be huge. How can we explain to the commander?"
Lu Chun was just blinded by anger just now, but now he woke up immediately after being reminded by the staff.
He took a breath, and then asked appreciatively to the young staff officer next to him: "What's your name?"
"Humble job Chen Yi."
Lu Chun went up and patted him on the shoulder and said: "I did a lot just now, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I would have made a big mistake."
Next, Lu Chun took the telescope handed over by another staff officer next to him and looked towards Chen Qiang again.
I saw that although there was an explosion in the front, injuring many people, the Hunan Army soldiers in the rear still poured in one after another to block the city wall from several gaps.
Although there were constant gunshots next, there was no explosion like the one just now.
Lu Chun was finally relieved now. It seemed that the Rakshasa people in the city did not have that much time to deploy a large number of explosive devices in the city.
The fact was exactly what Lu Chun thought. Although the initial explosion temporarily stopped the Hunan Army soldiers from advancing, the Hunan Army soldiers later discovered that the explosion was only concentrated in this section of the city wall.
Therefore, someone boldly entered the city with a gun, but no explosion occurred.
Now the people behind felt relieved, so they swarmed in and launched the final attack on the city.
Although the Rakshasa army did not deploy many people on the city wall, they deployed a large number of snipers in the houses behind the city wall, preparing for street battles with the Hunan army.
The fighting was lively on the south side of the city, but Lieutenant General Strelnikov at the north city gate knew that the time had come for them to break through.
At the lieutenant general's order, the north gate was opened, and then a large number of Rakshasa soldiers swarmed out.
Fortunately, this breakout was carefully deployed, so although the soldiers rushed out in large numbers, they did not disrupt the formation. After they came out, they rushed forward quickly, and some of them defended on the spot, while others continued to move forward. That's it.
They took turns covering and quickly approached the encirclement in the north.
It should be said that Lu Chun did not expect that the Rakshasa soldiers would break out of the encirclement at all. He also thought about annihilating this army in the city.
Therefore, the military force he deployed in the north was relatively weak and lacked heavy weapons.
The two sides then exchanged fire. Although the firepower of the Hunan Army soldiers was still very fierce, they were beaten back by the Rakshasa Army who wanted to break through and go home.
