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 Masaru to strengthen the Cavite Naval Base and the prisoners of war.
The defense force of the battalion. The 6th Marine Division was divided into two. One part fought bloody battles with the US-Philippine coalition forces on the Manila front, and the other part was stationed in Bacool and Cavite. The fierce fighting continued in the Manila area, and the Japanese army also withstood unbearable
There were only small casualties. At this time, only one regiment of troops was deployed on the front line in the western suburbs of Manila. This was the main reason why they could not continue to launch the offensive. The Japs of this regiment, one brigade were stationed at the front line, and two more
A brigade is located in a later camp. The troops of a brigade are spread out, which is not dense compared to the position of five square kilometers. However, because its troops are concentrated in the first two trenches, this happens to be Ferro's focus.
In this way, the results of Ferro's bombing campaign were impressive. After dropping the bombs, he turned 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, and in the trench behind them, there are corpses on the ground. And right there
Above them, three overhead fortresses were flying past them in a straight line, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a cruel sneer.
If there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, if there is no door to hell you can break in. Are you referring to these Japanese soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit?
In the Japanese military camp, when the bulky fuselage of the three aerial fortresses slowly appeared in the sight of the Japanese officers and soldiers, the little Japanese who had just been stunned at the smoke in front of the position shouted in unison, and then ignored the officers' shouts and hurriedly chose their way out.
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, and he also had a certain understanding of this powerful East Asian army. A few days ago, he summarized
In terms of gains and losses, I think the Japanese army is not much better than them in terms of weapons alone. 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.
, the U.S.-Philippine coalition forces once had the opportunity to round up a Japanese army 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 fifty Japanese troops left.
There were only a few remaining soldiers. The casualties exceeded 80%, but the Japanese army had not even collapsed. This left a deep impression on Bojia and made him less optimistic about the war in the Philippines. There had been 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?
The three overhead fortresses slowly cut into the Japanese military camp from the northwest. It seemed slow, but they were still much better than the two-legged Japanese soldiers. The huge fuselage of the empty 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 roaring down, and each one couldn't help but feel his liver and gallbladder split. To this day, for this kind of thing, which is known internationally as "
The Japanese people who have been hit hard by the "Butterfly Bomb" cluster bomb are no longer unfamiliar. 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's painstaking efforts
Is it feasible to turn it into a pamphlet and give it to the front-line troops as an evasion method? But judging from the reaction of the Japanese officers in the camp, they have never thought of avoiding this round of bombing in this way.
"Don't crowd together! Disperse, disperse!" A colonel waved his arms and shouted loudly. Next to him were nearly a team of military police. Bojia was deeply impressed by this colonel, because it was precisely because of his existence that the United States
The Philippine Allied Forces had just been beaten in the previous battle - his telescope lens captured Colonel's figure, and he couldn't help cursing: It would be great if he could blow up this bastard. It had only been a few seconds since he had this idea, Colonel
and his men were engulfed by exploding fireworks - bravery is certainly a virtue worthy of praise from the world, but the cost of maintaining it is not low, and sometimes it even costs your life.
Three aerial 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. There were rumbling explosions and hundreds of thousands of bombs.
The Japanese soldiers fell down wailing, and many of them were at the center of the explosion, and were directly lifted into the air by the air waves.
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 trembled and fell to the ground. He raised the telescope in surprise and saw a plane no more than 500 meters away from the ground.
The empty fortress opened his mouth wide and he was stunned.
The cadet army has always been full of lunatics who risk their lives in fighting, and Ferro should also belong to this group. In any case, Boga would never have thought that empty fortresses could also use machine guns to provide support to ground troops, but Ferro used practical methods to provide support to ground troops.
Action taught him a lesson.
Once upon a time, the Japanese were like nails 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 overhead fortresses to conquer this area.
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 erupted from the garrison position. Bojia looked at the cheers all around with emotion.
The American and Filipino soldiers suddenly remembered a question - once, we had more than 100 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 be able to fight
Such a beautiful counterattack?
This air raid was later recorded in history as the "Sneak Attack on Cavite". At the cost of only three Chinese Sturgeon torpedo attack aircraft, the Haikou Aviation Corps of the Xuebing Army achieved the complete annihilation of the Japanese Fengxiang aircraft carrier fleet and annihilated more than 5,000 people.
The Japanese army merged with the commander of the Hosho aircraft carrier fleet, Souma Masaru, and the commander of the 6th Marine Division, Hirono Akio (a common method used by the Japanese. Poor Hirono Akio is still in prison in Guangzhou, chewing cornbread, but his beloved country
Ferro and his Haikou Aviation Corps became famous in the first battle. After successfully attacking the Sasebo Naval Port and Nagasaki Military Port in Japan, and smashing the retaliatory air strikes 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, receiving 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 are still willing 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.
