    Fifteen minutes later, the air battle started west of Huanggang. As soon as the battle began, Zhou Zhirou and others heard Liu Zhesheng report that an enemy plane had been shot down, and the entire command headquarters burst into cheers.

    However, less than a minute later, a dull voice was heard from the loudspeaker hanging in the headquarters: "Report: The No. 3 aircraft was shot down. The crash site was located west of Huanggang.  Huarong Town, the pilot has parachuted, please notify the ground troops immediately to search and protect the pilot!"

    The cheers suddenly stopped, and everyone felt extremely sad. At the same time, they were also worried about the parachuting pilot!

    Unlike Western pilots who have a gentlemanly demeanor, the Japanese aviation group is more crazy and violent than their army and navy. According to international practice, after the pilot's plane crashes, enemy planes generally will not attack the parachuting pilot.

    ¡°However, the Japanese army blatantly violated this spirit and often attacked pilots who parachuted. They were so heartless and crazy!

    Therefore, although the pilot of Plane No. 3 has parachuted out, the possibility of survival is not high.

    "Who is the driver of Unit 3?" Zhou Zhirou said in a deep voice.

    "The report is from Lieutenant Wang Yongming!" the combat staff replied.

    "Wang Yongming? Is that the young master from Wang's Textile Industry?"

    "yes!"

    After Zhou Zhirou was silent for a few seconds, he immediately said to Li Guoyao: "Commander Li, you may not know that this Wang Yongming's family is the eldest son of the Wang family, the largest cotton textile industry in Central China. His father's family has a fortune of tens of millions. In Wuhan alone,  There are more than 20 people sitting in his house, and there are shops and houses in Chongqing, Chengdu and other places, but as the eldest son of the Wang family, Wang Yongming is obsessed with joining the army."

    "Then his father spent money to send him to the Central Aviation School. He shot down three enemy planes less than half a year after graduation. He was born a lieutenant because of his meritorious service, but he never thought that he would be shot down today."

    Li Guoyao nodded and said: "The elites of the Air Force are all heroes, which is admirable!"

    As he was speaking, a voice came from the loudspeaker again: "Report to the headquarters that aircraft No. 8 shot down a Japanese aircraft. It was a Japanese Type 88 fighter!"

    "good!"

    "Report: No. 16 aircraft shot down one Japanese aircraft and injured another. The injured aircraft has fled towards Nanjing. Please pay attention to its whereabouts at observation posts along the way!"

    ¡°Very good, pass the order and ask the observation posts along the way to pay attention to this Japanese fighter plane. If it crashes halfway, search for its pilot immediately!¡±

    "yes!"

    "Report, No. 11 was shot down and No. 9 was injured"

    Half an hour after the air battle, Liu Zhesheng reported again: "Reporting to the headquarters, our unit is entangled by Japanese fighter jets. The remaining dozen bombers have broken through our unit's interception and are flying towards Wuhan. Please pay attention to the ground air defense troops!  "

    After hearing Liu Zhesheng¡¯s report, Zhou Zhirou and others¡¯ expressions became more solemn.

    Sure enough, just a few minutes later, a low buzzing sound came from the sky!

    Everyone in the headquarters knew that this was the sound of an aircraft engine, and the Japanese bombers were coming.

    "Boom boom boom"

    Although separated by countless streets, Li Guoyao could still feel the earth shaking under the heavy aerial bombs!

    When these Japanese fighter planes arrived in the sky over Wuhan, they quickly dropped aerial bombs one after another, blowing up landmark buildings one after another, chasing away the fleeing people as wild beasts, and watching them turn into ashes under the aerial bombs.  .

    Since the air defense forces in Wuhan are too few and too weak, except for a few limited anti-aircraft guns, there are almost no effective weapons to deal with Japanese fighter planes. Therefore, these Japanese bombers are very rampant and often attack the fighter planes.  The flight altitude was lowered to an extremely low level for dive bombing.

    Even their pilots enjoy the thrill of low-altitude flying. For them, it is the showoff of the winner.

    The Japanese bombers raged over Wuhan for more than 20 minutes, until they dropped all their aerial bombs before leaving.

    During this period, although the national air defense forces were also fighting back, their results were speechless. They did not even shoot down a single fighter plane.

    Suddenly, Li Guoyao finally understood why Chiang Kai-shek insisted on letting him be the deputy commander of the garrison headquarters. There was no other way, mainly because the performance of the ground air defense forces was really poor.

    After coming out of the Aviation Commission building, Li Guoyao came to the street and saw chaos in the streets of Wuhan. The streets were full of devastated bodies after the bombing, and bodies that had not been restrained were painful.The injured were groaning in pain, and houses were burning everywhere. The whole city was scarred.

    In the air, the pungent smell of burning and the thick smell of blood permeated everywhere, as if we were in hell on earth.

    Even though over the years, Li Guoyao has been to various countries in the Middle East where the island country is under fire, he has also been to the territory of the black uncles in Africa where wars are frequent, and he has also been to the monkey zone of Southeast Asia where gangs are rampant. He thinks that he has seen life and death, and he thinks that he has become very strong.  .

    But at this moment he shed tears. This was the temporary capital of China and the most prosperous city in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, but at this time he could only tremble under the Japanese plane.

    Li Guoyao was extremely angry, and he vowed to teach these sons-of-bitches a lesson to the Japanese planes.

    It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to the Wuchang military camp. Then Li Guoyao ordered all brigade-level officers to be handed over to the temporary military headquarters for a meeting.

    In the conference room, all the officers belonging to the 61st Army were present. Under the chair, Xu Hu, Wang Zhanhai, Ma Desheng, Huang Shang, Zhang Tengjiao, Xie Baojun and others sat in sequence.

    After previous reorganization, Zhang Tengjiao was appointed as the temporary commander of the 7th Division, Xie Baojun was appointed as the commander of the new 100th Division, while Lu Dashan and Wen Debiao were appointed as deputy commanders of the two divisions respectively, and the positions of the others did not change much.  .

    At present, the 61st Army has two divisions, four brigades and eight infantry regiments, but it also has four regiments of shelf troops, with a total strength of more than 16,000 people. The number of soldiers is the largest among all the national army's first-level combat units.  It is above average, and its combat effectiveness is above average.

    After all the personnel arrived, Li Guoyao immediately said: "Everyone, the commissioner just appointed me as the deputy commander of the Wuhan Garrison Command this morning. All the air defense forces in Wuhan City have also taken over the air defense tasks of Wuhan City."

    Hearing that Li Guoyao was promoted to deputy commander, everyone smiled, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became high.

    "Hahaha, the military seat is the military seat. I have been promoted before this battle has even started. If we make a few more great achievements in Wuhan, the military seat may become the commander-in-chief of the group army!"

    "Yes, the military seat is possessed by the God of War. It is only a matter of time before he becomes the commander-in-chief of the group army!"

    "Congratulations on your promotion, hahaha!"

    However, Li Guoyao raised his hand to stop everyone's compliments and said immediately: "Don't think that this deputy commander is easy to serve. I have already inquired about the situation of the air defense force in the city. Although it is said that there are 9 regiments, in fact there are only  With less than 10,000 officers and soldiers, and a severe shortage of weapons and equipment, the overall combat effectiveness may not be much stronger than the air defense regiment of our 61st Army."

    "On the other hand, the strength of Japanese fighter planes is very powerful. Even with the coordinated operations of the Air Force, it is difficult for us to protect the city of Wuhan with our strength alone, so the task is very arduous."

    As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Hu asked: "Military seat, what should we do now?"

    "First of all, we need to find out how many soldiers and equipment are available for air defense operations in Wuhan. After all, Chief Luo and the others only gave an approximate estimate. The actual situation may be worse than what they said, so I have asked them to notify all  The air defense troops will gather at the Wuchang barracks tonight with their equipment."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "The second thing is to reorganize all the troops. Wuhan City is so big and there are so many key defense areas. I estimate that if you want to defend the airspace of Wuhan City, you will need at least five to eight reinforced air defense regiments. Therefore, it must be  We need to integrate existing resources.¡±

    "The last step is to investigate the situation in the city, and then formulate a suitable combat plan to give the little devil's aviation a fatal blow!"
