The damaged engine was completely paralyzed, and there was a ball of fire on the wing. Wesker had to shut down the fuel pipe first to prevent the fire from affecting the other engine.

The indicator alarm in the cabin kept sounding. Wesker knew that he must not panic at this moment. After calming down, he tried his best to control the downward trend of the plane.

Fortunately, the remaining three engines were working normally. He first let the plane dive downwards and used inertia to maintain speed. Then he asked the first officer to shut down one of the engines on the right side to avoid the deflection torque causing a more serious loss of control. After the plane stabilized,

Then increase the throttle of the remaining two engines at the same time and raise the altitude with all your strength to keep it stable.

With their superior technology and the powerful power of the B17 engine, they finally stabilized their flight altitude.

"Yeah!"

"Good job! Wesker!"

"God bless…"

Waves of cheers came from the cabin, and everyone couldn't help but shout loudly after the disaster.

But they were still too happy. Before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the chasing enemy plane was right behind them, and the distance was already very close.

It was like one wave after another. The crew quickly returned to their posts to operate the machine guns.

But the enemy's speed was still a step faster. Before the machine gunner could prepare, several waves of bullets had already swept over him.

Wesker had no choice but to evade laterally, but this also left the machine gunner temporarily without a shooting angle, let alone aiming.

Because the turret in the belly position has been destroyed, the only ones that can counterattack now are the double linkage of the top turret and the two 7.62 Brownings at the tail. The cunning little devils also realized this, and they deliberately avoided the top

and the tail, choose to attack from the bottom up from the front of b17.

The Japanese fighter planes were like hungry wolves, always surrounding them, waiting for an opportunity to pounce and take a bite. Wesker and the co-pilot had to fly the plane left and right to avoid, looking for a suitable angle for the gunner to counterattack, but they inevitably suffered more and more damage.

After all, if the bombers only rely on their own defense to face the encirclement and suppression of enemy fighters, no matter how high the B17's defense is, it will be difficult to deal with it head-on, let alone that they have been seriously damaged.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…!

Boom! Boom!

Rapid firelight reflected in the sky. At this critical moment, support from Jamie Squadron finally arrived.

The sudden attack from the side and rear caught the Japanese army off guard, and several fighter planes were destroyed in an instant. The thin-skinned Falcon and the Type 97, which flew almost "streaked", could hardly escape the fate of being exploded in the air once hit.

The melee continued. Under the stubborn resistance of the two escort squadrons, the Japanese army could not take any advantage at all, but they were still as hard to get rid of as brown candy.

Seeing that they could not break through for a long time, a few brave little Japs even flew planes viciously towards the target, preparing to risk their lives to launch a suicide attack.

Fortunately, Jamie and the others are not vegetarians. They rely on the excellent performance of the fighter planes to find ways to make the opponent unable to succeed.

As more and more planes were destroyed, the Japanese commanders finally realized the crisis. They all took off from Yangon Airport hundreds of kilometers away. The fuel they carried was not enough to last for a long time, and the ammunition consumption was serious.

, it is meaningless to continue fighting under the current situation.

This interception mission was a complete failure. Even if he was very unwilling, the Japanese commander had no choice but to retreat and let the remaining fighters quickly leave the air battlefield.

"Huh ... it's finally over ..." Jamie squeezed his sour palms long, and his sweat had already soaked his clothes.

He did not order pursuit watching the rush -fled enemy aircraft, because they could lose more than ten navigation fighters on their side.

There are also several rows of bomb holes.

"Call Fox Hunting No. 1, what are your situations? Can you continue to fly?"

"The engine is broken, the problem is not big, you can continue to perform the task." Wesk replied easily. His voice trembled, and everyone understood ... when the ghost door was closed, it was scared.

Each crew checked the situation of the bomber, and the other two B17s were fine, that is, Wesk was relatively seriously damaged by the machine. The engine was okay. After the turret below was hit

It is estimated that when you land, you have to accelerate your heartbeat once.

"Come to contact with the ground forces right away and notify them to search and rescue this area."

Jamie looked down through the cockpit glass. Most of his comrades who had been shot down in the air combat had skydamed and escaped. As long as they did not die on the spot, there was a possibility of survival. I hope they should not fall into the enemy's defense area.

Nympho

At the same time, the fierce battle on the Renan Qiang battlefield has passed for a long time, and both sides have invested a large number of artillery against the blasting.

Renanqian's geographical location is similar to Mandler. It is a small town on the east side of the Elowi River, but it is higher than Mandalay. The Japanese army placed the main force on the 501,533 high ground. It is very difficult to rely on the terrain advantage.

At present, the direction of the offensive is mainly two points, that is, Chen Jize's tank regiment and the mechanical infantry regiment have pushed westward from the east to the west.

The terrain here is mostly hills, the depression is the main, and some lush rainforests. The tank group cannot attack again. It can only be scattered to the combat of each company and infantry.

In Fan Xiangwu's infantry regiment, each even assigned a tank offensive team, there are three Shelman tanks, two wheelbage vehicles and five transport trucks. The firepower can be said to be very scary, but the road that advances forward

Still full of hardships.

At 501 Highland Qianshan, the soldiers of the three battalions and nine consecutive consecutive battalions were unplugging a Japanese army castle in front of the armored forces, but the angle of the enemy's firepower point was very tricky, and they couldn't approach twice.

The little devil arranged a minefield on the route again. From time to time, a team of people was attacked in the two -wing woods, so that the soldiers who were on the attack had suffered enough.

A Sherman moved slowly. More than a dozen infantry followed behind the car. The bullet hit the armor is dingling. Everyone hid behind the car body.

It's.

When the tank just raised the artillery mouth to prepare to firing the artillery, a cluster of fire was suddenly raised from the forest in the distance.

A bomb pit was exploded.

The splattered soil residue sprinkled the infantry, and the tank was forced to stop.

"Where did you come!?"

"The left hand side, ten o'clock! 300 meters! It is the one -type anti -tank gun of the devil!"

The commander in the tank cabin was sweating profusely. The Japanese were playing with bayonets and cannons. It was really tiring to pull the anti-tank gun so far forward.

That anti-tank gun has a caliber of 47mm. According to Sherman's current turret frontal armor, it is not afraid at all. But then again, at a distance of 300 meters, an armor-piercing projectile can still penetrate a 70mm thick armor plate. If it is

It would be bad if the opponent hits the side or tracks.

"Turn left, turn left, face them with frontal armor, and reload! Kill that idiot for me!"

"I know!"

After the tank commander finished shouting, he immediately picked up the radio and notified the tank crew next to him, preparing to provide him with a barrage of fire coverage.

The resistance of the Japanese army was very tenacious. In this gap, countless grenade launchers and combat anti-aircraft guns were thrown at them as if they were free. The battle losses of the attacking troops were increasing, but the advancement speed was still slow.

The gunner of the 47mm anti-tank gun immediately reloaded when he saw that the first round missed, and it took only more than ten seconds for the second round to be fired again!

"boom!"

At a distance of 300 meters, experienced gunners do not need to aim at all. The shells flew straight towards the tank, exploding an astonishing spark on the front armor of the opponent's turret, and the huge sound shook the infantry behind the vehicle.

I was confused, covering my ears and feeling uncomfortable.

Under the force of the armor-piercing bullet, the inside of the car also shook violently. The car staggered and almost lost its nose. He was so angry that he cursed loudly.

However, this shell completely exposed its location. Needless to say, the coaxial machine gun on the vehicle immediately set fire to cover, and the other two tanks also began to turn their turrets and aim their muzzles at the target.

"Fire!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After three loud explosions, the anti-tank gun position was instantly blown to pieces, and a large amount of mud and sand mixed with tree branches were scattered and scattered.

"Pump the gas pedal and keep going!"

The three Sherman tanks took another step forward. Thick gray exhaust gas puffed out from the exhaust pipes. They opened fire as they moved forward. The exploding black smoke gave the infantry an excellent cover.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldiers quickly stepped forward and followed closely behind the tanks. The mortar platoon at the rear was also providing fire support, and shells were fired at the Japanese hilltop position one after another.

The battlefield is filled with the sound of gunfire. A complete corpse on the ground a moment ago may be blown to pieces by artillery shells in the next second. The tense nerves are a test for every soldier.

The Japanese army was not to be outdone, and various weapons emerged in an endless stream. The crazy little devils pushed all the anti-war artillery to the forefront. They did not fire to expose the position at first, but waited for the opponent's tank to drive 200 meters before firing armor-piercing shells at it.

To make up for the problem of insufficient penetration power of artillery shells, it really brought a lot of trouble to the tank troops.

The Sherman at the front had not driven very far when a dull explosion from the front of the tank made the driver's heart skip a beat.

"Why isn't it moving?" the driver shouted anxiously.

"It seems that it has hit a mine. The right track is broken and the vehicle can't move now!" The driver was extremely distressed. No matter how he operated, the tank without the track could no longer move.

"Damn! It's going to kill me..."

The commander looked out through the sight glass and saw bullets swishing across the tank body. There was no telling how many Japanese were hidden on the hilltop in front of him.
Chapter completed!
