Twenty wolves rushed into the depths of the Japanese army as if they were in uninhabited territory. They not only successfully rescued MacArthur and others, but also captured Hirono Akio, which forced Soma Masafumi to strengthen the Cavite Naval Base and the prisoners of war. The battalion's defense force, the Sixth Marine Division was divided into two. One part fought bloody battles with the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces on the front line in Manila, and the other part was stationed in Bacool and Cavite. The Japanese army also suffered a lot from the continuous fierce fighting in Manila. casualties. At this time, only one regiment of troops was deployed on the front line in the western suburbs of Manila. This was also the main reason why they could not continue to launch the offensive. The Japs of this regiment, a brigade stationed at the front line, and two more The brigade is located in the later camp. The troops of a brigade are spread out. Compared with the five square kilometers of the position, it is not dense, but because its troops are concentrated in the first two trenches, and this happens to be the area that Ferro focuses on. , In this way, the results of Ferro's bombing campaign were impressive. After dropping the bombs, he controlled the plane to turn around, and flew over the Japanese positions that were still filled with gunpowder smoke, looking down from time to time. As far as the eye can see, I can see hundreds of surviving Japanese soldiers fleeing towards the military camp in despair from the positions filled with gunpowder smoke and burning flames of war. In the trench behind them, there are corpses on the ground, and just behind them Above, three air fortresses were flying past in a straight line, and a cruel sneer appeared in his eyes.
If there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, if there is no door to hell you can break in. I'm referring to these Japanese soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit.
In the Japanese military camp, when the bulky fuselages of the three air fortresses slowly appeared in the sight of the Japanese officers and soldiers, the little Japanese who were stunned at the smoke in front of the position shouted in unison, and then ignored the officers' shouts and panicked. He rushed out,
Bojia climbed to a high ground and saw this scene through the telescope. He couldn't help but feel incredible. He had fought several fierce battles with the Japanese in the Manila area. He also had a certain understanding of this powerful East Asian army. A few days ago, he concluded In terms of gains and losses, I think that in terms of weapons alone, the Japanese army is not much better than them. Of course, whether there is aviation support or not is another matter. The most terrifying thing about the Japanese army is the will to fight. A few days ago, there was a large-scale offensive and defensive battle. In China, the U.S.-Philippine coalition once had the opportunity to round up a Japanese squadron that was advancing. However, after more than three hours of hard fighting, the Japanese army was still able to break out. At that time, there were only five Japanese troops left. There were only a dozen remnants, and the casualties exceeded 80%. This Japanese army had not even collapsed. This left a deep impression on Bojia, and made him even less optimistic about the war in the Philippines. He had never seen such a situation. When he saw the scene of the Japanese army bombing the camp, he was even more surprised. He couldn't help but wonder: Is it just because their opponent this time was the Xuebing Army?
Three Aerial Fortresses slowly cut into the Japanese military camp from the northwest. It seemed slow, but it was still much better than the two-legged Japanese soldiers. The huge fuselage of the Aerial Fortress slowly pressed down, and a huge shadow shrouded the Japanese soldiers. In the military camp, many Japanese soldiers suddenly felt a darkness over their heads. When they looked up, they saw dense bombs whizzing down, and each one couldn't help but feel his liver and gallbladder split. To this day, for this kind of thing known internationally as The "Butterfly Bomb" cluster bomb is no stranger to the Japanese who have been hit hard. In fact, the Japanese Military Ministry once convened people to carefully study how to correctly avoid such bombs, not to mention the Japanese Military Ministry. Is the evasion method that was painstakingly turned into a pamphlet and handed to the frontline troops feasible? However, judging from the reaction of the Japanese officers in the camp, they have never thought of using this method to escape this round of bombing.
"Don't crowd together, spread out, spread out." A colonel waved his arms and shouted loudly. Next to him were nearly a squadron of military police. Bojia was deeply impressed by this colonel, because it was precisely because of his existence that the United States The Philippine coalition forces had just been beaten in the previous battle. His telescope lens captured the figure of the colonel. He couldn't help cursing in his heart: It would be great if he could blow up this bastard. It had only been a few seconds since he had this idea in his mind. , Colonel and his men were engulfed by exploding fireworks. Bravery is certainly a virtue worthy of praise from the world, but the cost of maintenance is not low. Sometimes it even costs life.
Three flying fortresses flew over the Japanese military camp in a Z-shaped pattern, dropping more than a thousand cluster bombs along the way. The Japanese military camp, including the open areas in front and behind several camp gates, were bombed at the same time. Amidst the rumbling explosions, hundreds of Thousands of Japanese soldiers fell down wailing, and many of them were right at the center of the explosion, and were directly lifted into the air by the air wave.
Bojia's lens had been firmly locked on the colonel. When the explosion gradually subsided and the smoke was blown away by the wind, he saw the colonel standing up from the pile of corpses with the help of more than a dozen of his men. Secretly sighing, a few flashes of light suddenly caught his eye. The colonel and his men fell to the ground tremblingly. He raised his telescope in surprise and saw a plane no more than 500 meters away from the ground. The flying fortress, his mouth opened wide, he was stunned,
There are always some lunatics in the cadet army who are willing to fight with their lives, and Ferro should also belong to this group. In any case, Boga would never have thought that the air fortress could also use machine guns to provide support to ground troops, but Ferro used Practical actions taught him a lesson,
Once upon a time, the Japanese were like nails stuck here, withstanding the counterattacks of the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces time and time again with far fewer troops than the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces. However, now, the Xuebing Army only used four air fortresses to defeat this enemy. The camp, including seventy-eight out of ten soldiers inside, was wiped out. When the surviving Japanese soldiers rushed towards the rear without looking back, cheers spontaneously rang out from the defenders' position. Bojia looked around with emotion. The cheering American and Filipino soldiers suddenly remembered a question. Once, we had more than a hundred fighter planes at Clark Air Force Base, including 35 B-17 bombers. If these fighters were not destroyed in batches by the Japanese army, we would have been able to Can you make such a beautiful counterattack?
This air raid was later recorded in history as the "Sneak Attack on Cavite". The Haikou Aviation Corps of the Xuebing Army achieved the complete annihilation of the Japanese Fengxiang aircraft carrier fleet at the cost of only three Chinese Sturgeon torpedo attack aircraft, annihilating more than 5,000 people. The Japanese army merged with the Hosho aircraft carrier fleet commander Souma Masabumi, and the commander of the 6th Marine Division Hirono Akio (the usual method of the Japanese. Poor Hirono Akio is still in prison in Guangzhou, chewing cornbread, but his beloved country With the glorious record of "Jade to pieces"), Ferro and his Haikou Aviation Corps became famous in the first battle. After successfully attacking Japan's Sasebo Naval Port and Nagasaki Military Port, and smashing the retaliatory air raids of the Japanese and naval aviation forces in the Zhoushan waters, the student soldiers The military air force has become famous and has begun to rank among the world's top air forces. It has received close attention from many world powers.
Karachi received the news that night. Ouyang Yun summoned Bai Liusu, Chen Shichang, Jiang Huangyong, Qi Minghao, Liu Dakai and others to his headquarters, took out this battle report and circulated it to them, and then said: "After this battle, it is
Yamamoto Isoroku and Koizumi Toshiichiro still intend to tolerate it, but the Japanese military headquarters will definitely not be able to continue to remain silent. It is conceivable that the Japanese will definitely launch crazy revenge. This is both a test for our army and an opportunity for us. Brothers, time waits for no man.
