Thunder attack aircraft roared and circled in the sky, like goshawks gazing at their own territory. Rudel looked down at the ground, and the dark road under his feet was like the veins of a dead giant.
The reason why those roads were dark was because there were so many bombed-out equipments. The piles of charred corpses and melted steel were simply the embodiment of hell.
He soon discovered a Qin anti-aircraft artillery position. This position was well disguised, but obviously, in order to obtain a larger firing range, it would inevitably expose some things.
The cannon barrel was raised high and pointed towards the sky. The opponent seemed to be preparing to sneak attack Rudel when he lowered his altitude without Rudel noticing them.
This is also the only chance for the anti-aircraft guns. If they fail, a disaster awaits them.
"Interesting!" Rudel, who had destroyed countless anti-aircraft gun positions like this, smiled. This was not the first time he faced such an enemy.
The other party will lay traps in any corner that may be ignored to lure him, the hunter, into being fooled. But unfortunately, the hunter is still a hunter after all, and the prey is still prey after all.
"Check the area! They will definitely ambush a crossfire! Find the trap, let's find the trap, one for each of us!" Rudel reminded his wingman, then turned around again in the sky and pointed the nose of the plane at the suspicious position again.
Sure enough, next to another dry bush, there was an anti-aircraft gun position covered by a camouflage net.
"Found it!" Rudel opened the safety on the joystick and pointed the nose of the plane at the anti-aircraft gun position he discovered first.
The wingman was not idle either. At Rudel's prompt, he also pointed the nose of the plane at the anti-aircraft gun position that was later discovered.
"Come on! Teach them how to behave!" Rudel began to dive, and then aimed his nose cannon at the target.
Fierce artillery fire suddenly enveloped the anti-aircraft gun position, and the white smoke from the shells instantly engulfed everything nearby.
The wingman also began to dive, and before the Bofors anti-aircraft gun opened fire, he poured his own cannon shells onto the opponent's head.
The dense cannon shells wiped out everything they encountered, including the camouflage net covering the anti-aircraft guns, as well as the Qin anti-aircraft gun shooters who were on standby and ready to fire at any time.
The artilleryman holding a rangefinder on the side was not spared. The flying shrapnel penetrated his body, and the blood immediately dyed his clothes red.
The officers of Qin State tried every means to restore a road so that their troops could retreat quickly.
But until they were about to be surrounded, the passage did not recover. A large number of infantry were retreating towards the imperial capital, but not a single heavy weapon such as vehicles and tanks was able to leave Dongqing.
The Qin State lost almost half of its armored strength. In less than a month after the war began, or to be precise, in less than 20 days, the Qin Army lost more than half of its heavy weapons and equipment.
.
The hard-earned heavy artillery, tanks, anti-aircraft guns and even missile launchers, so many treasures, were turned into scrap metal and piled up on the road, acting as the most worthless roadblocks.
What's even worse is that the Air Force has not been spared. Qin's fighter force has lost more than 400 pilots and shot down more than 460 aircraft.
The problem is, so many planes were shot down, and Qin didn't even have any useful experience.
Although there are many reports that the Tang army has a turning rocket, or an air-launched missile, which can be used to attack Qin's aircraft.
However, Qin's intelligence department has not been able to obtain similar weapons analysis so far, and the air force pilots have not summarized how to deal with such missiles.
Although there have been dozens of Pili missile misses, most of the places where these missiles missed are now under the control of the Tang Empire, so the Qin army has no way to find missile wreckage to analyze what happened to this missile.
To achieve "tracking".
Because too many aircraft have been lost, especially too many precious jet fighters, the Qin Air Force no longer dares to take to the skies for combat.
The J-7 of the Tang Army was really too fierce. This aircraft was too fast and had excellent maneuverability. It could completely crush the Qin Army's Type 183 fighter jet at all altitudes and speeds.
The Qin Army's attempt to take off DO-17 bombers at night to prepare for an air attack on the Tang Army was also seen through and intercepted. Imagine the spectacular scene of the J-7 fighter jets with all-weather combat capabilities intercepting World War II aircraft.
In that night alone, the Qin Army shot down more than 130 bombers. From then on, the Qin Army's bomber force almost withdrew from the battlefield.
On the ground, the Qin Army battalion commander hiding in the woods saw with his own eyes that his soldiers were beaten into sieves by machine guns.
Before the precious Bofors 40 mm caliber anti-aircraft gun had time to fire, it was beaten into parts by the 30 mm caliber cannon on the nose of the Thunder attack aircraft.
Because the rates of fire are completely different, and the attacking aircraft are at a commanding height, the attack power of both sides is not at the same level at all.
When the Bofors anti-aircraft gun emptied a magazine, the shells fired by the Thunderbolt's cannon had already riddled the area around the Bofors anti-aircraft gun.
Seeing the camouflage net on the anti-aircraft gun being blown away, and seeing his men flipping over, the Qin Army battalion commander rushed over with a cry, picked up a fallen soldier and cried loudly.
The Thunderbolt attack aircraft in the sky flew away, and the noise of the jet engines made the surrounding air tremble. The loader who was hit by the shrapnel had already expired at this time.
There was a magazine dropped beside him, and some loose artillery shells were scattered beside him. Many non-commissioned officers from the battalion headquarters also ran over, trying to find survivors on the ruined position.
Unfortunately, their efforts were almost in vain. White smoke was everywhere on the position. The anti-aircraft gun they used for anti-aircraft fell crookedly on the spot, with bullet holes on it. All the soldiers operating this anti-aircraft gun
They were all killed, and only a butt and two bloody legs were left where the shooter was sitting.
On the other side, there was no sound from the anti-aircraft gun position near the bushes. Because there was no cover, the Qin army in the forest did not even dare to take a look.
Winter has arrived, the leaves have almost fallen off, and the original forest cover effect has become worse and worse. The situation seems to be becoming more and more unfavorable to the Qin army, at least their bunkers are getting fewer and fewer.
