Chapter 760: The Combat Effect of Paratroopers
"General, do you want to send a plane for support?"
The staff officer immediately made a suggestion.
Iwasaka Mitsuki looked at the time and shook his head helplessly.
"It's two o'clock in the morning now. They're using our planes to bomb our soldiers. If we go over there, it will be hard to distinguish between friend and foe at night! Once things get out of control, our people will start fighting among themselves! The gain won't make up for the loss! If we want to use aircraft support, we can only wait until daybreak!"
"Notify Peicheng and tell them to find a way to hold out until dawn!"
"Hi Yi!"
The Japanese signalman quickly issued orders to the Japanese garrison in Peicheng.
The Japanese in Peicheng suffered heavy casualties.
In particular, Yuan Shuai arranged for people to bomb them using their planes.
Groups of Japanese and puppet troops instantly became cannon fodder.
Some of the Japanese had no choice but to retreat.
Upon receiving the news, the Japanese officer gritted his teeth and cursed in anger.
"Bakayalu, why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?"
"Hold on, we must hold on until dawn!"
Unfortunately, there are more and more planes in the sky.
It turned out that there were ten transport planes at Peicheng Airport.
It is used to transport supplies.
Yuan Shuai directly asked his brothers who could fly a plane to Xincheng and Zhacheng to call for help.
Not only that, the troops attacking southwards in Zhacheng have been quickly withdrawn.
Many pilots boarded the plane and parachuted directly into Peicheng Airport.
These pilots flew their planes and launched crazy bombings on the Japanese.
More than fifty Zero fighters have gathered here in Peicheng, in preparation for dealing with General Yuan in the future.
But now, these more than 50 Zero fighters, a dozen land bombers, and ten transport planes have all become General Yuan’s trophies.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the Japanese in Peicheng had to withdraw from Peicheng quickly.
Some puppet troops had no choice but to surrender.
Not only that, these ten transport planes played a significant role.
Although one plane can only transport twenty soldiers.
But ten transport planes, including Yuan Shuai’s own three transport planes, that’s thirteen planes.
It can transport 260 people at a time.
After the paratroopers and pilots are transported, they will continue to transport infantry and artillery.
Moreover, it only takes 40 minutes to fly from Peicheng Airport to Xincheng and back.
It only takes fifty minutes to go from Peicheng to Zhacheng and back.
It was five o'clock in the morning.
The transport plane has already made three or four turns.
The troops gathered in Peicheng already included more than a thousand allied troops.
Including the more than 800 allied troops who surrendered and were incorporated, they now have an army of nearly 2,000 people.
Not only that, during the last transportation, Yuan Shuai asked the team to transport a lot of 20mm anti-aircraft guns and M2 heavy machine guns.
There are more than fifty 20mm anti-aircraft guns in the entire Peicheng!
There are more than 2 M heavy machine guns.
Make adequate air defense preparations.
At the same time, the first county town south of Peicheng, Qingcheng, had been captured, and more than 500 puppet troops were incorporated!
More than a thousand local allied troops sent by Hu Dacai for support have also arrived and continue to attack Yucheng together with the team.
As long as we take down Yucheng, we will reach Peicheng and be able to reunite with General Yuan.
Not only that, all fifteen fighter jets from Xincheng have taken off and arrived in Peicheng.
At one time, more than 60 fighter planes, a dozen bombers, and a dozen transport planes gathered in Peicheng.
As daybreak approached, the gunfire in Peicheng had stopped and everyone was preparing for defense.
The airport's logistics personnel have already installed ammunition and fuel on all the aircraft and are waiting for them to take off.
On the other side, when the British and American troops heard the news, many officers were dumbfounded.
"What? Yuan Shuai and his men have taken over Peicheng Airport!?"
"And they occupied the entire Pei City!?"
"We even took over Qingcheng, south of Peicheng!"
"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
All the British and American troops simply couldn't believe their ears.
"That's right. According to our intelligence, General Yuan sent out paratroopers this time. It was these paratroopers who took over the airport, and then sent transport planes to drop paratroopers continuously. At the same time, they seized the Japanese planes to bomb the Japanese, and sent transport planes to transport paratroopers and infantry artillery to assist in the defense!..."
"Fuck you!Fouck you!"
The British and American brigade commanders were so angry that they slammed the table and cursed.
"I really didn't expect them to use this kind of tactics. Why didn't we think of it?"
"We have enough transport planes. If we can send paratroopers to take over Peicheng Airport, we will have more transport planes to transport troops and take over Peicheng in one fell swoop!"
"What a talent! He's a real genius!"
The eyes of the two brigade commanders were filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.
Unfortunately, Peicheng is now in the hands of Yuan Shuai.
"Report, General Yuan sent a telegram asking us to quickly send a plane to support us!"
"support?!"
The two brigade commanders snorted coldly.
"Why should we go to support them, sacrifice our pilots, and protect their airport?"
"What price did he give us? Peicheng will give us half!"
"The Japanese army lost Peicheng Airport, so they will definitely send a large number of planes to take it back. We don't want to be cannon fodder!"
"Call back and tell them the plane is undergoing maintenance! It can't fly!"
"Call back, all the fuel for the plane has been given to him. We are short of fuel here and cannot fly!"
The two brigade commanders certainly did not want to be cannon fodder for General Yuan, and immediately refused to send out aircraft support.
When Bobcat heard the news, he was so angry that he started cursing.
"Damn it! They said they were friendly forces. How could this be done by friendly forces?"
"Boss, Yundong Airport will definitely send a large number of planes here. We don't have enough planes!"
Bobcat and Little Sweet Potato looked at Yuan Shuai anxiously.
Yuan Shuai gritted his teeth and snorted.
"I don't expect them to come to help. If I send them another telegram, the Japanese will definitely tell me about those large-scale air battles. Inform them that they can send planes to launch a fierce attack on the Anjiang area. At the same time, they can also consider launching a fierce attack on Yundong Airport!"
"understand!"
Bobcat quickly notified the signalman to send a telegram.
After receiving the telegram, the British and American troops each slapped their foreheads.
"Damn it, why didn't we think of that!"
"At this time, the troops from Xincheng that were attacking Anjiang have already withdrawn. Anjiang will definitely use the bunkers to support Peicheng!"
"The planes at Yundong Airport will definitely launch a large-scale attack on Peicheng. At this time, we can send out planes to cover the ground forces' attack on Anjiang!"
"As for Yundong Airport, we can't move it for now. When night comes, we will learn from Yuan Shuai and launch a surprise attack with paratroopers. Then we will use transport planes to land at Yundong Airport and take it down in one fell swoop!"
The two brigade commanders of the British and American armies communicated over the phone and immediately sent a large number of aircraft to Angkhang.
Although their aircraft ensured that ground facilities and technicians were not destroyed.
However, they were still able to bomb the outer areas to cover the ground forces in breaking through the Japanese's outer defense lines.
