Chapter 68 Still an Airplane

  This is a blocking position, the gasoline incendiary bomb has burned the position into a sea of fire, even the mud was ignited, and dozens of planes were continuously diving and sweeping. Is there still anyone on the position? My fellow comrades all raised this question.

  The answer is affirmative, there are people, and not a few of them. Otherwise the Americans would not be attacking this position like madmen.

  After a wave of bombing, the US military launched another charge. The flames on the position had not been extinguished, and some soldiers emerged from somewhere, their machine guns firing again. What kind of soldiers were they? Some of them still had burning clothes under their bodies, many were burned, and some were bombed, but they still stubbornly defended this position.

  "Comrades, this is an opportunity. Look at that place, we need to go there to ambush the American planes." Soon, Yang Wei made a decision. This battle may still have several rounds to fight, and naturally the American planes will come again. Behind this position, there is a high mountain where their target is located. This place is not a strategic location, and naturally there are no people on it. However, after the American planes finish bombing or strafing, they will pass through this place before pulling up. Yang Wei's plan was to leave a few of the American planes behind, not letting them be so reckless.

  "Who are you, little devils?" "Shh, we're going up there, keep it a secret." The young companions had passed through the volunteer army's defense line and arrived at the foot of this small mountain, while some curious soldiers were watching them from afar. "What are these little devils doing?" Of course, they wouldn't think that the young companions could be harmful to them, but this place didn't have any strategic significance, so what were they doing up there? They didn't know that the young companions' goal was actually aimed at airplanes, something the soldiers dared not think of.

  "One machine gun is on this tree, another machine gun is on that tree, you must form a crossfire, this time we will give them a good lesson and let them be so crazy."

  "Bang." "Oh, Wei Gege, I hit an enemy." "Yingzi, what are you doing? We didn't come up here to fight, be careful or we'll get discovered and a few shells will come our way, ah, no good, this is a problem. If we shoot down the plane, won't we just become targets for their artillery?"

  Yang Wei suddenly thought of something and sweat started flowing down his forehead. He really hadn't noticed that once the plane came down, they would become the target of their artillery.

  "Yingzi, luckily you reminded me that we are already in danger. Alright, don't pout anymore. I have a task for you. See that high ground over there? Go there and once you spot their artillery commander, take him out. But be careful to keep an eye on our position here. If you see us retreating, follow quickly or we'll get separated."

  "Yes, I guarantee to complete the task." Yingzi excitedly slid down from one side of the mountain slope and ran towards the US military's attacking position. Yang Wei watched Yingzi through binoculars, she was like a little mouse, jumping and advancing in the forest, if it weren't for Yang Wei constantly observing her, he really wouldn't be able to find her figure. Among the companions, Yingzi was indeed the most agile one. And as soon as Xiaohui and Xiaobai entered the mountain forest, only Yingzi could spot their figures, even Yang Wei couldn't detect them.

  When Yingzi hid her figure on a tree, the US military's attack failed again, and they all retreated. The planes in the distance came again, it seems that this US military is attacking with the rhythm of the plane.

  Their planes take off from a distance, then fly here to conduct a round of bombing. Then their infantry and tanks start attacking. If it doesn't work, they will conduct another round of aerial bombing.

  "Note, the plane is coming. After the plane finishes its dive, we'll open fire. The target is more than 50 meters in front of the plane. Then, regardless of whether we hit it or not, after this round of attack, we must retreat quickly. If not, we will suffer great losses."

  This retreat is certain, whether the British are aiming at their artillery or not, but their artillery will definitely fire at this mountain head, it's just a matter of hitting or not, but Yang Wei dare not gamble, although his little partners have some ability, they are not made of copper and iron, and they are also afraid of bullets and shells.

  "Hum..." The American plane arrived above the volunteer army's position, and then bombs rained down like dumplings, while several planes poured down gasoline, falling like a heavy rain.

  "Now, fire!" "Rat-a-tat-tat, rat-a-tat-tat." The two machine guns fired simultaneously. The planes that had just sprayed gasoline in front of them were hit, and perhaps the places where they had sprayed gasoline had not yet closed when they came into contact with the bullets. With a loud "boom", the entire plane was engulfed in flames.

  "These little devils are fierce, it turns out they went up to shoot down planes." "Little Li, what are you looking at?" "What am I looking at? Look at those few planes, they've been shot down." "Nonsense, we don't even have anti-aircraft guns, who could possibly shoot down planes. Ah, it's actually true." The soldier said as he lifted his head and followed Little Li's gaze to look over, indeed in the sky there were several planes that had turned into a huge fireball, and several more trailing black smoke fell behind the mountain, and also, there were several things floating gently downwards from the sky.

  "Ah, little devils, you've all come down. You're really impressive." At this time, the little companions began to retreat back down along the original path, and Little Li stretched out two thumbs towards them.

  "Uncle, look, those are a few pilots, hurry up and catch them." "Pilots? Ah what, pilots, you several, follow me, we'll go catch some prisoners." This little Li was still not reacting, then suddenly jumped up, couldn't even call out names, directly pointed at a few people to run towards the back of the mountain.

  At this time, the American artillery had begun to attack, and some shells also hit the mountain where the little buddy was just now. "Oh my, fortunately we got down quickly, otherwise we would have been bombed." Yingzi was not there, Xiaoshan naturally became the smallest one, so he made a gesture of patting his chest and pretending to be afraid.

  Not long after, this battle ended with the victory of the volunteer army. They captured dozens of American soldiers and brought back three pilots. As a result, in subsequent battles, the US military became more cautious. Originally they were very arrogant, dominating the air, but now there was something to restrain them on the ground, so their bombing altitude increased significantly, and the effect of the bombing became less and less.
