The Milky Way is Also a Grain of Sand

Chapter 184 The Battle for Guanghua Gate

    
Zhenchuan Hangping, the squad leader, noticed the steel helmet was about to fully appear from the corner of his eye.

Hand, eye, and body coordinated, the gun in his hand quickly aimed at the steel helmet.

His gaze could finally directly face it.

His body also adjusted to the optimal position, all completed in an instant.

At the same time as completion, the shot was fired!

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping knew: this shot hit again.

He had a strong sixth sense, knowing that this shot would definitely hit.

Sure enough! The bullet accurately hit the steel helmet, knocking it off in an instant.

The steel helmet flew off!

After firing this shot, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping's body was already quickly moving to another location.

He was just observing the situation of the target he had just shot at from the corner of his eye.

The steel helmet flew off!

This situation made Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping's eyes widen.

His whole movement stiffened.

This was abnormal: a steel helmet worn on the head would not fly off.

His developed sixth sense fiercely warned him of danger.

This feeling, honed through long-term training, had saved his life several times.

This time, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping's body reacted much faster than his mind.

Using both hands and feet, his body retreated to the side and rear like a snake, concealed and swift.

This escape route was chosen before he even entered this sniper position.

A shell landed and exploded where he had just been.

The blast of air rushed over his head, and many shrapnel still whistled past above.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping was glad that the cover he had chosen was deep and large enough.

In fact, when he chose this sniping point, he had taken a fancy to the advantage of this retreat point: after one shot, retreating into this cover was absolutely safe.

From the corner of his eye, Lin Fan saw the steel helmet being hit by a bullet from the front right, and the helmet flying off the bayonet.

Without thinking, he gently adjusted the mortar barrel that had been prepared in his left hand, and the mortar shell that had been prepared in his right hand was already dropped into the barrel.

A shell flew out.

Another shell flew out.

At this moment, the steel helmet that had been shot off clanged and fell to the ground.

Ji Wudi looked at Lin Fan with dazed eyes, finally unable to hold back:

"You just casually fired two shells like that?"

Lin Fan thought for a moment: "How can firing shells be casual? I calculated the position of the sniper from the direction the bullet flew, hit the steel helmet, and the sound of the gunshot just now.

Then I adjusted the mortar barrel and fired these two shells."

Ji Wudi looked at Lin Fan admiringly: "You're amazing!"

Lin Fan didn't know if she was praising him or saying he was talking nonsense: Just kidding! How could there be time to make so many reactions and calculations in such a short time.

Everything was just intuition!

Now Lin Fan thought that the Japanese soldier was already dead, so he packed up and continued to the next stop.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping lay in his cover, calming his frightened mood.

Having been a sniper for so long, this was the first time he had encountered someone using a mortar as a sniper rifle.

Just as he was thinking this, another mortar shell exploded less than five meters to the right of his body.

This sound really startled Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping.

If the cover he was hiding in wasn't deep enough, he would definitely be dead this time.

He didn't dare to move rashly, who knows if the other side would fire another shell.

At this time, Lin Fan had already asked Ji Wudi to pick up the steel helmet and leave this location.

Continuing to the next trap, he still didn't dare to show his face.

There were too many Japanese snipers, he didn't dare to!

This time Ji Wudi used a wooden stick to hold up the steel helmet.

When the steel helmet was only half exposed, a bullet whistled from afar.

Lin Fan returned two shells.

Sato Himura had never imagined that he would be so unlucky.

As a sniper, he had practiced being an assassin for a long time before becoming a sniper.

It was the instructor who trained him who discovered his potential as a sniper, and after only a year of training.

Sato Himura came to the battlefield.

So far, he had completed a hundred kills on this continent.

This was an amazing achievement.

Even Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping couldn't match him in terms of the number of people killed.

Sato Himura had also thought about how he would die, he had thought about being killed by stray bullets, dying of illness, or dying of old age.

But he had never imagined that he would be killed by an opponent with a shell.

This shell fell from the sky and landed right on his waist.

Even if it was a dud, he would be crippled from now on.

Fortunately, this was not a dud, and the instant pain made Sato Himura think of many things:

This definitely wouldn't be a coincidence, it was the opponent's intention.

The opposite side was a person who was afraid of death, so he didn't dare to use a gun to face him head-on, he could only use such a curved-trajectory gun.

Because this kind of gun had the biggest advantage: people could be completely unexposed.

Sato Himura's thoughts stopped here, and after the shell exploded, only a sniper rifle was left at Sato Himura's position.

Lin Fan didn't know that his opponents today were thinking too much.

But Sato Himura thought right: Lin Fan really didn't want to take risks at this time, unnecessary risks were not something a sniper should do.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping finally confirmed that it was safe outside.

Although the entire division's attack on the Guanghua Gate in front of him was still in progress.

But he believed that the ruthless person who used a cannon as a sniper rifle had already left.

When Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping cautiously poked his head out from another sniping point to observe the situation.

He found that what he felt like had been a century, actually hadn't changed anything for either side of the battle.

The warriors of the empire were still continuing to charge towards the city gate, and some other warriors were putting wooden ladders against the city wall.

Trying to climb up the city wall.

The tanks not far away were also adjusting their muzzles, bombing the machine guns on the city wall.

The machine guns on the city wall, equipped with protection, were still firing fiercely as before.

Some things were different.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping suddenly felt something: it seemed that the firing frequency of several of his snipers wasn't as fast as before.

He wouldn't naively think that his subordinates were slacking off.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping immediately felt a chill: it was that sniper gunner, who had already cleared out quite a few of his subordinates.

At this time, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping had an impulse to flee in panic.

Escape!

Or not escape?

This was a difficult problem!

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping finally decided to face his short life.

He knew that if he escaped this time, he would no longer have the courage to go to the battlefield in the future.

If he was lucky, he could return to the country to be an instructor.

If he was unlucky, he was afraid that he would be forced to be an ordinary soldier and charge to the front line.

In that case, he would die even faster.

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping believed that letting him go to the front line was the only way the empire would treat him.

Treatment was something that could only be given by the empire, and could not be chosen by the recipient.

Thunder and rain are all the grace of heaven!

Of course, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping actually had another plan in his heart: if he could kill that sniper who used a cannon here.

His sniping skills would be further improved.

At least now, he was still in the dark, and the enemy was in the open!

There was a chance of winning.

Having built up his mental state, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping's eyes began to survey the battlefield.

Lin Fan was not easy to find, he and Ji Wudi were a combat team, hiding behind the city wall.

Quietly firing, not exposing themselves.

Lin Fan didn't keep staring at those snipers, he also casually took out the Japanese machine gun positions outside the city.

The mortar positions of two or three mortars.

These were all his targets.

However, he still found that some of his soldiers had been shot by snipers.

He could see this from the position of the shots and how many of these soldiers fell.

The trick of using a steel helmet to lure the enemy was always effective.

No matter how cunning the prey, there were always some habits that couldn't be changed.

When they discovered a target, they would always unconsciously fire a shot.

This was an instinct that was no longer controlled by themselves.

Long-term training made snipers have a natural impulse to fire a shot when they discovered something with obvious marks like a steel helmet.

Sergeant Fujii Meiya was an example.

The section he was responsible for hadn't had a target appear for a long time, and twice he had personally seen: the bullets he fired splashed blood at the target's position.

Finally, he saw a steel helmet peeking out from the edge of the city wall again.

"A little higher, a little higher." Sergeant Fujii Meiya certainly knew that if he only hit the top of the steel helmet.

It wouldn't be able to kill the target, having a piece of skin torn off the top of the head wouldn't achieve his purpose.

Now he just wanted the target's head to be a little higher.

From the current situation, it seemed that the target was a careful person.

He just accidentally raised his head a little too high, exposing some of himself.

When the target's steel helmet disappeared again, Sergeant Fujii Meiya felt a little regret.

He could only continue to wait, like an old cat, squatting at the entrance of the cave, patiently waiting for the prey.

His patience was soon rewarded.

The steel helmet reappeared, this time Fujii Meiya did not hesitate, firing when the steel helmet had just exposed two-thirds of itself!

"Perfect!" Sergeant Fujii Meiya was very satisfied with his performance.

A familiar steel helmet?

Sergeant Fujii Meiya, who was very satisfied with himself, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

A familiar steel helmet? Where was it familiar?

The scratches on the steel helmet.

There were too many scratches on that steel helmet.

Sergeant Fujii Meiya, covered in cold sweat, immediately began to move.

This time, he didn't hesitate to expose himself to retreat backwards, not far away was the next sniping point he had chosen.

His body began to move quickly, the shriek produced when the air was compressed by the shell, and the creepy feeling, suddenly tightened Sergeant Fujii Meiya's heart.

He struggled to see a black shadow falling less than a meter beside him.

Then, without giving him any time to react, this black thing exploded.

Lin Fan pointed to the steel helmet that had been shot with six holes and said: "Wudi, change one.

This looks too much like a trap."

Ji Wudi smiled, found another yellow cloth military cap, and also used a clump of dead grass to make a head shape.

This time, it looked even more like it when it was held up with a wooden stick.

"Your hands are so skillful!" Lin Fan admired endlessly.

This was not the first time Ji Wudi had been praised by Lin Fan for her life skills, but she was still a little excited.

Being praised by an idol always made people excited.

This time Ji Wudi held up this cloth hat in her hand, and slowly probed upwards again.

The sniper's bullets always came quickly, fiercely, and accurately.

The bullets of ordinary soldiers didn't come so fast, but they were definitely the kind with a large quantity.

Because ordinary soldiers, no one could guarantee a one-shot kill, so they had to keep firing at the discovered target.

Even if the target disappeared, they would still add a few more shots.

Now the cloth hat in Ji Wudi's hand had just appeared, and it immediately attracted the attention and patronage of Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping.

This was not a steel helmet, not the bait of the person just now!

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping was convinced in his heart, and immediately fired the gun in his hand.

Ji Wudi felt a tremor in her hand, and the wooden stick that wasn't using much force immediately fell down.

Lin Fan fired two shells in a row, and then had time to praise: "You performed too well like this.

Just like it was real, sure enough women are born actors."

Ji Wudi didn't know that this was Lin Fan's sigh.

She immediately became unhappy: "I am not an actress, my family has always been a family of scholars.

If it wasn't for the war, even you, the company commander, wouldn't be able to step into my house.

Even if you are the company commander, you can't insult me like this."

Lin Fan discovered that the women of this era had a different understanding of actors than when he came.

Before he came, the profession of actor was very noble.

Many girls would not hesitate to pay any price to become an actress.

How could it be that when it came to Ji Wudi, the actor became an actress.

And in her mouth, this actress seemed to dirty her mouth a little when she said it.

Lin Fan quickly apologized: "I just wanted to express that you just used a fake head to perform the appearance of a real person.

Forgive me for not reading much, I don't know how to speak."

Ji Wudi thought for a moment: "I forgive you." She thought that Lin Fan had returned from abroad and didn't understand the inside stories of the current domestic film companies.

While going to pick up the hat, she was preparing to continue using it.

Lin Fan smiled and stopped her: "Change one!"

"Change one every time you get shot? That's a bit of a waste." Ji Wudi muttered.

"A hat in exchange for a life, is such a cost-effective deal, do you still think it's a waste?"

Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping had been mentally prepared just now, but this time he saw that the person wearing the hat on the opposite side fell down all of a sudden after he fired a shot.

He couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.

At this moment, a shell fell from the sky.

At the last moment of his life, Squad Leader Zhenchuan Hangping was unwilling to believe that this was a shell fired by that sniper, he only wanted to believe that he was too unlucky this time.

He would actually be hit by a stray bullet on the battlefield.

When Ji Wudi was holding up a changed hat to lure the enemy back and forth on the battlefield, although she could occasionally attract dense attacks.

But there was no longer the kind of attack that came just by poking out half of her head like before.

Lin Fan raised his head and was about to look outside the city wall.

Ji Wudi grabbed him and pulled him hard, without holding back at all.

She poked her head out abruptly, stayed for five seconds, and then retracted it.

Lin Fan reached out and patted her head: "Don't do this in the future. I am the company commander, I should do such dangerous things."

Ji Wudi had only been touched on the hair by Lin Fan like this on the day when her hometown was attacked by bandits.

Today, she was patted on the head by Lin Fan again, and her face turned red all of a sudden, all the way down to her neck.

She said in a low voice: "You are the company commander, you are the commander. It is my responsibility to protect you."

Lin Fan patted her head again: "You are a woman! You should be protected by nature."

Ji Wudi no longer spoke.

Lin Fan raised his head and looked outside, and immediately saw a Japanese grenade launcher, and two mortars.

Sergeant Maki Hiyo was a veteran, he had participated in countless battles over the years, and his years of combat experience made his grenade launcher very good.

Today was different from the past, opening this gate in front of him.

Not only him, but the entire Sixth Division, the entire empire would enter a glorious new era.

Before this, only Western countries had used cannons to open the capital of this empire.

Now this glory was about to fall on his empire.

Maki Hiyo was excited, and the grenade launcher he fired was not as accurate as before.

But he didn't panic, in the current situation, it was obvious that the imperial warriors were pressing the opposing national army to fight.

Today was Maki Hiyo's birthday, being able to attack the capital of a country on his birthday was really a commemorative day!

This situation wouldn't last long, the opposite side would retreat soon.

This was the experience that the Sixth Division had summed up from Jinshanwei all the way to here.

Lin Fan squatted down and adjusted the mortar, firing three shells in a row.

These three shells were fired at the three fire points that had just been discovered.

One shell landed beside Maki Hiyo: what a loud firecracker sound!

This was Maki Hiyo's last thought.

Chen Sichuan and his two squads went to the top of the city and joined the attack on the Japanese, and in less than ten minutes, the crazy momentum of the Japanese just now was suppressed.

The Japanese in the city gate hole were still trying to bomb the constantly increasing sandbags.

The third and fourth squads were also working hard to move sandbags.

Now the officers and soldiers of the 51st Division were no longer continuing to pile sandbags in front of the city gate.

Instead, 200 meters away from the city gate, the artillerymen of the special company were using sandbags to build a cover.

They had already set up two anti-aircraft guns, and now they had time to improve the defenses.

For safety, the soldiers of the fifth and sixth squads were quickly piling sandbags here.

Each of the two guns had its own cover.

Division Commander Tani Hisao of the Sixth Division knew that his soldiers had broken through to the Guanghua Gate.

He immediately requested air force guidance from Commander Matsui Iwane.

At this time, his request was immediately approved.

It was Shimosato Sho again who led a mixed formation of more than fifty planes to assist in the battle.

There was still a distance from the airport to Nanjing, and the battle here continued.

The situation on the city wall had temporarily stabilized, at least the casualties of the soldiers defending on the city wall had decreased.

This was good news!

Hearing the good news from the city wall, Liu Xing and Wang Yaowu finally ordered all the officers and soldiers to come and help.

When the soldiers of the special company cleared the sandbags piled at the city gate just now, these national army soldiers guarding the city gate, although they did not continue to pile sandbags on it, no one was willing to help move these sandbags away.

They didn't trust that any team could drive the Japanese away.

The 51st Division was already a well-known powerhouse in the national army.

There were only a handful of teams that could surpass them, and this didn't include this team whose name they didn't even know.

Lin Fan set up two anti-aircraft guns 200 meters behind the city gate, and the gun barrels had been lowered.

He was concentrating on waiting for the moment when these sandbags were cleared.

Now Lin Fan had already successfully retreated and came down from the city wall again.

Deputy Commander Liu Xing also reported the current situation to Tang Shengzhi, the commander of the Nanjing Garrison Command: a temporary stalemate!

The situation had not continued to deteriorate, which was good news for the entire Nanjing.

Similarly, this was also good news for the national army soldiers who were still defending on various defense lines in Nanjing.

Whether it was Sun Yuanliang, or Song Xilian, Dai Ziqi and other generals, they all felt relieved.

Lin Fan wrote a letter and gave it to the messenger, asking him to send the letter back to the special company and to Hui Jianming.

The officers and soldiers of the 51st Army on the city wall, from this moment on, felt that the battle was easier.

When they were on the city wall just now, the soldiers would fall down as soon as they poked their heads out a little.

It wasn't that they weren't brave, it was just that the Japanese's marksmanship was really too good.

The fallen soldiers were always shot in the forehead, and at least more than twenty had been killed in a short time.

With such casualties, the soldiers couldn't last for long.

Now it was different, under the machine gun cover of the special company, they could now safely observe the situation of the Japanese outside the city.

Then they could shoot purposefully, so that they could inflict the greatest damage on the Japanese.

The changes on the battlefield were most felt by Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda.

When his squadron first arrived on the battlefield, he was able to completely suppress the defending army on the city wall.

Even the siege ladders found in the squadron had been leaning against the city wall in two places.

Now, let alone the siege ladders, the soldiers under his command couldn't even get close to the edge of the city wall.

The tanks and armored vehicles that had been arrogant just now were fiercely bombarded by the infantry guns that stretched out from the city wall, and six of them had been damaged. The remaining tanks and chariots had to quickly move to the rear.

Without the tank artillery cover, Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda could only drag his squadron's infantry guns up.

His battalion also had three infantry guns.

Now let's have our artillery duel!

The letter that Lin Fan sent back to the special company's驻地 was just an order for Hui Jianming to raise the observation balloon.

Prepare to bombard the Japanese squadron outside the Guanghua Gate with artillery fire.

In this letter, Lin Fan also specified the first firing unit.

The special company that received the order began to act.

Those ordinary citizens walking on the streets of Nanjing, and the teams that were holding on to the Nanjing fort, all saw the balloon rising in the city.

Those teams that were still fighting all recognized this thing: it was the observation balloon of the Japanese field heavy artillery brigade.

But why did it rise from the city of Nanjing?

Inquiries were made to the command headquarters of the Nanjing Garrison Command.

The people in the command headquarters were also not clear, they didn't know who this balloon belonged to.

Qian Jiao, standing in her own yard, also saw the balloon in the sky, and excitedly pointed at it and said: "Daddy! Look at the big balloon in the sky. It flies so high, it looks like it's flying into the clouds."

Old Master Qian couldn't see that far at all, he just glanced in that direction and said nothing.

Lin Fan also saw the balloon inside the Guanghua Gate, and everyone here saw it.

Deputy Commander Liu Xing was shocked: "The Japanese field heavy artillery brigade?"

He had seen this thing in Jiangyin, and not just once.

He also had a deep understanding of the power of the Japanese heavy artillery. The Jiangyin fortress was solidly built and could still be defended.

How could these ordinary civilian buildings in Nanjing withstand the bombardment of those heavy artillery.

Lin Fan explained: "That's from our company, preparing to bombard the Japanese squadron outside the Guanghua Gate."

师长 Wang Yaowu, who was talking to Liu Xing just now, also felt a little worried in his heart.

Hearing Lin Fan's explanation, Deputy Commander Liu Xing immediately reported this situation to the command headquarters of the Nanjing Garrison Command.

He knew that the sudden appearance of such a thing in the city of Nanjing would definitely cause a lot of panic.

If this panic could not be eliminated in time, it might have a bad effect on the overall battle situation.

People from all over the place who called to the command headquarters to inquire about the situation,

Knowing that this was a squadron under Sun Yuanliang's command of the 72nd Army, many people who had a good relationship with Sun Yuanliang called to inquire about the specific situation.

Sun Yuanliang had to explain: this company was very special, and he didn't dare to be too close to this company.

The number of people who came to the驻地 and its surroundings increased less than ten minutes after the特种连 balloon was launched.

There were reporters with cameras, wanting to come and interview for news.

There were many ordinary citizens, crowding to see the spectacle.

There were also many people who just came with radios and radio stations.

For reporters, Yang DaRen just didn't allow them to take pictures nearby, and all those who came to see the excitement were driven away.

Only those who came with radios and radio stations were politely invited into the camp by Yang DaRen.

In fact, Lin Fan was very afraid that his heavy artillery position would be exposed. If the Japanese heavy artillery brigade was not far away.

As long as they knew his heavy artillery position, they would only be able to destroy these heavy artillery.

This was also what Lin Fan was most afraid of.

Therefore, he was very strict about the management of the surroundings of the驻地, and told Yang DaRen to carry out this task with the seventh班.

Wang Yaowu heard Lin Fan say that the balloon in the sky was from their company, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "You also have heavy artillery?"

Lin Fan said modestly: "It's not a big gun, just twenty 150mm cannon and榴弹炮."

Liu Xing and Wang Yaowu rolled their eyes at Lin Fan speechlessly.

A company has twenty 150mm cannons and榴弹炮, and you still say it's not a big gun.

If this is not a big gun, what is a big gun?

Wang Yaowu finally continued to ask: "Company Commander Lin! Your company's number of people is a bit overstaffed!"

"I can't help it, these soldiers are crying and shouting to follow me to fight the Japanese, and the superiors won't give me an expansion.

It's just like this." Lin Fan said.

Wang Yaowu didn't take his words: "In your team, there are cannons, anti-aircraft guns, and so many 92 infantry guns, are they all equipped by the superiors?"

Speaking of this, Lin Fan had confidence: "Our weapons were all found by ourselves.

师长 Wang must have observed carefully just now, the light weapons of my company are all Japanese.

In fact, at the beginning they were all 中正式. At that time, my company only had more than 100 people.

Later, the logistics supply was not enough, so we had to use the Japanese 三八式.

Later, we found that using 三八式 also had very big advantages."

"What are the advantages?"

"No need to worry about supplies! We fight the Japanese every day, and all the supplies are requisitioned from the Japanese.

The Japanese are our logistics and baggage team.

Most of our mortars were sent by the Japanese, our 92 infantry guns were all sent by the Japanese.

Even our cannons, the Japanese also sent eighteen **式 150mm heavy加农炮.

But I also sent them six."

"That's not right! If you subtract six from eighteen, you only have twelve. How did it become twenty?" Wang Yaowu asked.

Lin Fan smiled: "When the Jiangyin fortress retreated, the fortress command couldn't take these cannons away.

They were preparing to destroy them all, so I led my brothers to drag these cannons from the fortress to Nanjing."

This last sentence immediately made Wang Yaowu stand in awe.

His body stood up straight: "You抢the fortress guns from Jiangyin? Are those guns also?"

He was pointing to the eight anti-aircraft guns.

At this time, the air raid alarm in Nanjing rang again.

At the same time, the heavy artillery class of the特种连 also began the first round of test firing.

The suddenly砸down shells startled Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda.

These were fired by the defending army, how could they have such big guns?

The observer on the balloon transmitted the information down.

The parameters were accurate, and the target was hit!

Hui Jianming directed twenty heavy cannons to start bombarding the Japanese squadron outside the Guanghua Gate.

Twenty 100-斤 shells exploded outside the Guanghua Gate.

The smoke produced rose very high.

Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda watched in horror as the shells continued to fall from the sky.

These shells exploded in the middle of his team, and the soldiers' bodies were blown very high.

A shell exploded on a tank, such a shell hitting a tank.

The moment the tank, which was firing shells at the city wall, was hit by the shell.

The entire tank sank to the ground, as if it was being crushed by Mount Tai, and suddenly it seemed to be a lot shorter.

Then it suddenly bounced back in an explosive way, and then the whole scene was like a slow motion.

A ball of light burst out from the position where the shell砸down, this ball of light was so dazzling.

It expanded so slowly.

It was like creating a universe, and countless fragments burst out from this ball of light.

There were the fragments carried by the shell itself, and the tank seemed to have turned all its materials into fragments to供奉this ball of light.

Countless fragments rushed out of this ball of light continuously.

Until this ball of light completely disappeared, the tank was only a pile of steel skeletons left.

There were hundreds of soldiers of the Nakatsu Hama Soda battalion following around this tank, and all of them disappeared with this ball of light after this ball of light disappeared.

When the shells fired from afar exploded.

A group of imperial fighters also flew in the high sky.

At this time, Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda only wanted this aircraft group to go and bomb the heavy artillery positions of the defending army as soon as possible.

Battalion Commander Nakatsu Hama Soda's idea was not received by Squadron Leader Shimosato Sho in the sky.

Squadron Leader Shimosato Sho led the mixed flight group behind him and rushed towards the Guanghua Gate all the way.

The task he received was to cooperate with the imperial warriors here and炸open the Guanghua Gate.

Today was the highlight moment of the empire's glory.

However, Squadron Leader Shimosato Sho also clearly discovered the high-altitude observation balloon, and was very clear about the purpose of this thing.

Wherever it was, there must be an artillery position.

After only thinking for a while, less than three seconds.

Under the command of Squadron Leader Shimosato Sho, a fighter jet and five bombers were separated from the機队.

Sergeant Ido Shuichi led this flight squad of six planes to carry out the task of bombing the defending army's artillery positions.

At the same time, he also had the task of shooting down this observation balloon in mid-air.

The observer Li Deben, standing in the hanging basket of the semi-air balloon, saw the Japanese plane first than anyone else.

Now he could only wait for martyrdom.

The hanging basket was fixed and could not be moved at all.

Now Li Deben was regretting in his heart: I didn't bring a machine gun up here.

If there was a machine gun now, maybe I could shoot down a Japanese plane. Da Feng Novel Network

He had already seen six Japanese planes flying towards him.

Now Li Deben already had the awareness of sacrifice, in this place where he couldn't reach the sky or the ground.

Even if he wanted to escape, there was no way to go.

If he jumped down from here, he would only become a pancake, nothing more.

Li Deben looked at the Guanghua Gate for the last time, he saw that place, the shells he commanded accurately fell on the Japanese position.

Was he finally going to die?

The roar of the Japanese plane's engine in the air became louder, which meant that the Japanese were getting closer.

Sergeant Ido Shuichi didn't have the idea of directly killing the observer in mid-air.

In his heart, he had already envisioned the following plot: he was going to fly to that person's side, sincerely pay his high respects, and ask him if he had any last words.

Then, like a gentleman, he would send him on his way.

Li Deben was no longer looking at the Japanese plane now.

His heavy artillery班fired again below, unaffected by the arrival of the Japanese plane.

The brothers were all good! But I have to go first!

Li Deyi watched another round of shells exploding in the Japanese team, and at this moment, his eyes saw a string of shells suddenly flying out from that direction.

Like the彩线織女 flying out from this end of the Milky Way, one of the红线, one end was on the ground, and the other end was flying towards him.

Then he heard a loud noise, and when Li Deben's gaze shifted from the ground of the Guanghua Gate to the sky.

He saw a ball of fire bursting out 2,000 meters away from him.

This was a very complete ball of fire, and a plane in the ball of fire had already broken apart.

It was quickly throwing its parts around.

In Li Deben's concerned gaze, another plane in this small flight team of only five planes exploded.

This plane didn't fly as high as the plane that exploded just now.

Li Deben could also imagine with his toes that the target of the first plane that exploded should be him.

The target of the plane that was exploding now was the artillery position below.

In Squadron Leader Shimosato Sho's headset, Fujii Hiroki's terrified cry came: "Squad Leader Ido Shuichi 玉碎, Saburo Katsumura 玉碎, ah! I'm also broken!"

In the string of Li Deben's happy eyes, the third Japanese plane exploded again.

Now he felt that his feet were a little soft, and slowly sat down.

The company commander was still so 神!

Li Deben knew that now as long as he didn't jump out of this吊篮, he wouldn't die.

His gaze was no longer entangled in the trivial matter of whether he lived or not, and his gaze should be placed further away.

Li Deben said to himself.

His gaze looked at the Guanghua Gate, but the fiery red light不断升起from the Guanghua Gate position.

The Japanese planes in the distance also had中弹 and were crashing.

Qian Jiao, who was looking at the balloon in the yard, asked: "Daddy! Were those planes shot down by that Company Commander Lin who came yesterday?"

This time Old Master Qian spoke: "If only one or two planes were shot down, then no.

If the planes are falling down like rain, then it is."

"Why are you talking like this, Daddy?"
