There happens to be a large open space here, and there are weeds around it that can serve as cover.
Hearing this, the team members also lay on the ground.
"Ding, look, plane, plane!" Sam pointed at the plane in mid-air and said excitedly.
"I know, I can see it!" Ding Wei responded, picked up the telescope, and looked at the high-altitude aircraft.
These three planes were actually just the vanguard.
Seeing the three planes disappearing from sight, Ding Wei and the others were about to get up when another dozen planes flew across the sky and headed towards the path they came from.
It wasn't until the plane disappeared from sight that Ding Wei and the others sat up from the ground.
"Ding, did you see it?" Sam said excitedly.
Ding Wei nodded heavily and said: "I saw it, there were about ten planes, including reconnaissance planes and fighter jets!"
With that said, Ding Wei squatted on the ground and spread out the map.
After walking for a day, this was the first time they encountered a plane, which meant that the plane must be coming from the front.
Ding Wei's eyes were filled with excitement.
I thought it would take a long time to find the plane, but I didn't expect that I saw the Little Japanese plane not long after I left the base.
Others avoid the Japanese planes and do not want to see the Japanese planes and get bombed by the Japanese inexplicably.
Ding Wei's thinking can be considered a special case in the military.
"Ding, I feel that we are not far from the Japanese airport." Sam said.
"Why do you say that?" Ding Wei asked.
Sam thought for a moment and said: "You will know later. I don't know how to explain this to you. Just think of it as the intuition of an old pilot!"
intuition.
This is a very interesting statement.
Just like an old hunter, he knows where the prey is by just smelling it with his nose and looking at it with his eyes.
But if you ask him to explain why, he may not be able to explain it.
Listening to Sam's intuition, Ding Wei suddenly felt a little reliable. The veteran's intuition is also one of the fighting instincts.
After thinking for a while, Ding Wei gave the order directly and moved forward in the direction from which the plane was flying.
Seeing the plane here, Ding Wei also focused his attention on the sky, looking up from time to time to observe, hoping to see the Japanese plane again.
He vaguely felt that since the Japanese had planes flying in, there would be more than just a few of them.
The fact was just as Ding Wei thought. Not long after they marched, another dozen planes flew over, and they were still coming from the same direction.
Ding Wei and Sam looked at each other with expressions that were indeed like this.
Then, they frequently heard the sound of Japanese planes flying in various directions.
Ding Wei noticed a detail. The plane did not fly high, was very dense, and would soon disappear into the horizon.
He suddenly understood why Sam said the airport was nearby.
"Sam, I feel that the airport may not be far from us." Ding Wei said in a deep voice.
"Oh?" Sam's eyes lit up and he asked, "Why did you say that?"
To be honest, Sam just wanted to tell Ding Wei that the Japanese airport might be nearby.
"It's very simple, the flight height." Ding Wei said with a smile: "The height of the plane proves that they took off not long ago."
"Ding, you are such a great commander!" Sam sighed sincerely.
Being able to make such a judgment based on just such a few details is simply extraordinary.
While the two were talking, another Japanese plane flew over.
"Sam, I feel that we need to go check the area nearby." Ding Wei said in a deep voice.
Sam nodded in agreement.
"Ma Han, monk!" Ding Wei shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Here we come!" the two of them responded, squatting next to Ding Wei.
"Give me my order. The troops will rest where they are. You two and I will go to the nearby area to check out the situation!" Ding Wei said.
"Understood!" The two of them were delighted and nodded hurriedly.
After arranging everything, Ding Wei and others began their reconnaissance work.
They moved forward while observing the direction in which the plane was flying. After pushing forward for about five or six kilometers, they finally found the target.
This is a mountainous area, and this airport is being built next to a mountain.
In addition, there is a large flat land on which the airport is built.
The airport is backed by a mountain as a cover, and there is a forest nearby. It is an excellent place. Most people would never imagine that there is an airport here.
Ding Wei immediately squatted down and picked up his telescope to observe the situation at the airport.
The other three people were squatting next to Ding Wei, stretching their necks and looking down the mountain.
The airport is surrounded by an iron fence, and there are several sentry towers outside the airport to observe the surrounding situation and prevent anyone from attacking the airport.
In addition, there are various fortifications, bunkers, bunkers, and concealed areas scattered throughout the airport.
Ding Wei simply counted and found that there were thirty planes parked at the airport. It was probably a resting place for refueling and maintenance of the planes, and also for the pilots to have a rest.
There are reconnaissance planes, fighter jets, and even a transport plane. It would be a pity not to grab them.
Although this airport seems to be well-defended, it is actually a strong force on the outside.
The Japanese army's defense of the airport was not very good. There were only a small number of guards and ground staff.
Ding Wei calculated that the total number of people in the mess was only 103. Among the Japanese soldiers with real combat effectiveness, only 70 of them could survive.
And if you look carefully, the fortifications built by the Japanese army at the airport are also very rough, and they may not be able to withstand a grenade blast.
The only place that is said to be strict is the entrance.
The Japanese army is very vigilant. Anyone who wants to enter the airport must undergo careful interrogation, but their vigilance only goes so far.
Generally speaking, the defense of the airport is not very high, it can even be said to be easy!
"Ding, look, there are so many planes down there!" Sam pointed down and said excitedly.
"Yes, I can see it." A smile formed on the corner of Ding Wei's mouth.
These airplanes are very nice, but it’s a pity that they will soon change their name to Eight!
With so many planes, Ding Wei really wanted to swallow them all. There were 5 Allied pilots and 8 own pilots.
If everything goes well, they can take away at least 13 Japanese aircraft.
And when there is nothing wrong, Ding Wei will also let the soldiers of the 028 squad go to class, so he can grab a few more planes.
"The little devil knows how to choose a place." Monk Wei curled his lips.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Ding Wei handed the telescope to Monk Wei and said in a deep voice: "Draw down the location map of the plane for me and mark all the names.
And the overall structure of the Japanese airport, even if it is a toilet, you have to draw it for me, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Monk Wei said excitedly, raising his head to observe and drawing the drawings in his notebook.
"Ding, you are going to have a plane this time!" Sam was also sincerely happy for Ding Wei.
Ding Wei smiled and said: "My friends, it's not you, it's us. We are going to have an airplane. This is the result of our joint efforts.
If you hadn’t assisted us in training pilots, I think even if we had planes, they would be useless!”
"Yes, my friends, it's us!" Sam laughed.
After the overall structure of the airport was completed, they immediately went back to join the troops and formulate a combat plan.
It's going to get dark soon, and the Japanese plane will definitely be parked here, waiting to continue flying tomorrow. The airport doesn't have long legs, so they can't escape anyway.
After reconnaissance, Ding Wei made a basic judgment on the Japanese army's firepower configuration, reinforcement time, reinforcement route, nearby terrain and possible methods.
Overall, if Team 028 were to launch a sneak attack on the airport, they would definitely have an advantage in terms of combat effectiveness and firepower.
Fighting a submachine gun with a rifle is not like a grandfather beating his grandson.
Having said that, Ding Wei still did not choose to attack rashly and planned to set the attack time at night.
A sneak attack on such a military target is definitely the best choice at night. Just give the Japanese a surprise and give them no chance to react, so they can capture the airport directly!
Seeing Ding Wei and the others coming back with happy faces.
Robert and the others knew that they must have gained something this time.
"We found the airport. Here is the airport floor plan." Ding Wei shook the notebook in his hand and said with a smile.
"Haha, I knew you could do it, Ding Wei!" Robert praised.
"Then what are we going to do next?" Mark asked.
"Of course you are fucking little devils!" Neeson clenched his fists and said in jerky Chinese: "Give them some color to see."
"Yes, of course we have to give the Japanese some color, but we still have to formulate a battle plan first!" Ding Wei said with a smile.
Suppressing his inner excitement, Ding Wei assembled Team 028.
It was easy for the team members to clean up these Japanese soldiers in the airport.
These team members are all veterans. Raid battles are no problem for them. Not to mention that they have undergone special training, so their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
The team assembles.
Ding Wei began to arrange combat missions.
"There are only seventy Japs who can fight in the airport. For us, it's just Zhang Fei eating bean sprouts, it's a piece of cake." Ding Wei said.
"That's right!" Monk Wei answered: "Captain, promise to destroy these little devils and not let any of them go!"
The rest of the team members also nodded, looking expectant.
"Very good!" Ding Wei nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "I think you are also very clear about the focus of our operation this time, which is to seize the Japanese plane!
Therefore, in order for us to successfully capture the airport, the Japanese support must be interrupted and the airport turned into a lonely position."
First, he divided the troops into three groups of 40 people.
Group One and Group Two are responsible for destroying the bridges and roads connecting the airport and blocking enemies who may come to support them at any time.
In addition, Ding Wei assigned all support firepower such as mortars and grenade launchers to them, allowing them to conduct support operations from a distance.
One group and two groups are under the unified command of Ma Han. This guy has strong execution ability and knows how to adapt. It would be a good idea to leave it to him.
The last group followed Ding Wei to attack the airport.
The team members looked relaxed, not at all nervous as before.
They even joked that they would drive away all the Japanese planes and leave them with nothing but a shabby airport.
After arranging the combat mission, the team members were eagerly waiting for the battle to come.
"Listen carefully, we only have one hour. Within one hour, we must seize the airport and drive away all the planes in the airport.
Moreover, we must blow up all the supplies in the airport that cannot be taken away, leaving not a hair for the enemy, do you understand?"
"clear!"
The team members responded in unison with great momentum.
Then, Ding Wei looked at Mahan again: "The task of blocking the enemy is left to you. Do you have the confidence to complete it?"
"Promise to complete the mission!" Mahan responded.
"Very good. In one hour, no matter what the result is, you will come back to meet us. Do you understand?" Ding Wei said.
"Understood!" Mahan responded.
As time passed and the sky became darker and darker, Ding Wei knew that the best time to act had arrived!
Following Ding Wei's order, the team members who had long been looking forward to fighting quickly took up their positions according to Ding Wei's order and arrived at the position where they needed to block the enemy.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Ding Wei also quickly led his troops close to the outer perimeter of the airport.
"Ding, wait for me, Ding!"
Ding Wei turned around and saw Sam and others running towards him.
"What do you want to do?" Ding Wei asked.
Sam said: "Of course I will fight with you. As a warrior, how can I hide behind!"
The other four people also nodded one after another and looked at Ding Wei with expectant expressions on their faces.
Ding Wei felt a headache and was worried that something would go wrong with them, so he placed them in the rear and waited for them to clear the way before flying the Japanese plane.
"No, I said, if something happens to you, I can't bear the responsibility." Ding Wei said: "Just stay in the back..."
The five people suddenly looked dissatisfied.
Ding Wei's heart moved and he suddenly had an idea: "Do you know why I put you behind?"
"Why?" the five people said in unison.
"Of course it's for the rear. What if an enemy gets behind us and threatens our pilots?"
The eyes of these five people suddenly lit up.
"So I let you be together because I want you to protect them." Ding Wei pretended to be disappointed and said: "Since you don't want to, then forget it."
Ding Wei stunned them with his talk in just a few words.
"Do you really mean that?" Sam asked.
Ding Wei's face was not red and his heart was not beating: "I'm sure it's true, if I break my promise, I won't be able to see your god."
"Okay, I believe you!" Sam nodded heavily.
Since Ding Wei values himself so much, he naturally cannot let him down. These eight pilots can also be regarded as his students.
Since you are a teacher, how can you watch them get hurt?
Robert and others also have a very simple idea. As seniors, of course they must protect these juniors on the battlefield.
After all, these soldiers also saved their lives.
"Captain, are you going to lie to them like this?" Monk Wei had a weird expression: "You also said that if you lied to them, you wouldn't be able to see that..."
Unexpectedly, these little foreigners are so easy to deceive, and they were deceived by their own group leader?
"How can this be considered a lie?" Ding Wei said with a smile: "It is indeed possible that we will be attacked by the enemy behind us."
After a pause, Ding Wei said again: "Besides, I don't believe it. I can't see that god at all. How can I say it's a lie?"
"..." Monk Wei thought for a moment. Although something felt wrong, it still made sense.
He gave Ding Wei a thumbs up and said, "You are really..."
"What?" Ding Wei glanced at Monk Wei lightly.
"Extremely clever." Monk Wei said hurriedly.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and prepare to fight!" Ding Wei said coldly.
Then he led his troops in sneaking all the way, and came to the barbed wire fence outside the airport and lay down.
There happened to be a sentry tower nearby with a searchlight on it, which kept shining on the surrounding area.
In addition, there is a Japanese soldier standing guard on top.
