Chapter 262: The monk leads the team to attack Taiyuan Airport
On Wolf Mountain.
The dense anti-aircraft firepower frightened all the Japanese pilots.
Their eyes widened with disbelief. They had never seen such a terrifying anti-aircraft firepower network on the Chinese battlefield.
The firepower network formed by hundreds of anti-aircraft guns was like a giant net of death, leaving them nowhere to escape.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if they had twice as many planes, it would be difficult to break through the enemy's air defense firepower network.
When the Japanese pilots received the retreat order, they immediately turned their planes around and began to return to Taiyuan Airport as if they had been pardoned.
When the soldiers on the anti-aircraft position saw the Japanese planes escape, they burst into loud cheers.
"Great! We shot the Japanese planes away!"
"We held onto Wild Wolf Mountain, awesome!"
Captain Gao of the Guard Regiment breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Japanese planes fleeing in the sky.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a mixture of emotions.
We finally managed to defend the thermal power plant, which was an important energy guarantee for the independent column. Once it was destroyed, the consequences would be disastrous.
the other side.
Gundam stood at the entrance of the air-raid shelter, watching the Japanese planes fleeing in the sky, and his heart finally settled down.
Yelang Mountain is the top priority of the Independent Column. In addition to the power plant, there are also various important departments such as the arsenal and the column hospital.
This is the foundation of the Independent Column. Once it is destroyed, the Independent Column will suffer heavy losses.
Qi Tongwei walked up to Gaoda and said, "Commander, the Japanese planes have been driven away.
Let’s go back to headquarters.”
Gundam nodded, then led everyone back to the headquarters.
Although the Japanese planes were shot away, Gundam was very worried.
The secret of Wild Wolf Mountain has been discovered. The Japanese aircraft attack failed this time, but there is no guarantee that they will launch a larger-scale air strike next time.
Only by completely destroying the Japanese airport can we avoid being bombed by Japanese planes in a short period of time.
In the future, the independent column will have its own aircraft, and then it will no longer have to fear the Japanese aircraft.
It seems that aircraft manufacturing should be put on the agenda as soon as possible to provide stronger guarantees for the future development of the independent column.

Lijiazhuang Command Center.
After Gaoda returned to the headquarters, he discussed with Qi Tongwei with a serious look: "Political Commissar, on the way back just now, I thought all the way that the independent column must take the initiative to attack and destroy the Japanese airport, so that the base can gain some peace for a period of time."
After hearing what Gaoda said, Qi Tongwei nodded in agreement.
He knew very well that the secret of Wild Wolf Mountain had been exposed. If he did not take action, the Japanese would definitely launch a larger-scale air strike.
"Commander, I agree with your decision," said Qi Tongwei.
Gaoda nodded slightly, turned around and shouted to Li Dazhuang outside the door: "Li Dazhuang, go and notify the monk to come to the headquarters immediately."
"Okay, Commander, I'll go right away."
Li Dazhuang ran out of the command center and headed towards the back mountain.
Not long after, the monk followed Li Dazhuang closely and trotted all the way to the command center.
As soon as he entered the room, the monk raised his voice and saluted loudly, "Report to the commander, political commissar. Wei Dayong is here to report."
Gundam looked at the monk and said seriously, "Monk, I asked you to come here today because I have a very important task for you to perform.
Just now, the Japanese planes attempted to bomb our Wild Wolf Mountain, but fortunately they were successfully repelled by our air defense forces.
But this matter cannot end so easily.
I now order you to lead the special forces battalion, carrying 10 107 rocket launchers, to rush to Taiyuan and completely destroy the Japanese Taiyuan Airport.
Do you have the confidence to complete this task?"
Hearing this, the monk's eyes suddenly lit up. He knew very well that this was a difficult and glorious mission.
So he straightened up without hesitation and responded loudly: "No problem! Commander, please rest assured! The special forces battalion will definitely complete the mission successfully."
Gaoda nodded with satisfaction and continued to instruct, "Very good! Then I will wait for your good news.
Remember, act tonight and make sure it is quick and decisive."
The monk nodded vigorously, then quickly turned and left the command center.
...........
Night falls.
The whole earth seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious black veil.
The monk led the special forces battalion and set off for Taiyuan overnight. Their figures appeared particularly determined in the darkness.
It is nearly 200 kilometers from Ping'an County to Taiyuan, which is a long and challenging journey.
In order to speed up the journey, the monk borrowed 600 war horses from the cavalry regiment.
With horses, they could travel very quickly and expected to reach Taiyuan in the afternoon of the next day.
The 107 rocket launcher has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble and assemble, so it was disassembled into parts and carried on horseback.
Along the way, they advanced through the mountains and bypassed the Japanese strongholds.
This journey has long been commonplace for the special forces battalion.
As the strongest battalion-level unit of the independent column, the combat effectiveness of the special forces battalion is enough to suppress an entire regiment. If it were in the mountainous area, it would be even more invincible.
Their figures shuttled through the mountains and forests like ghosts, making them difficult to detect.
The monk was well aware of the importance of this mission, so he had to ensure that nothing went wrong.
He sent a team to Taiyuan in advance to survey the situation and find the best launch site.
There are many mountains around Taiyuan, which can provide them with excellent cover.
Hit and run.
In order to carry out this mission, all the rockets carried were enhanced rockets with longer range and power, capable of launching artillery strikes on the Japanese airport from 12 kilometers away.
..............
On the afternoon of the second day, the sun shone on the earth.
After a long journey, the monk led the special forces battalion and finally arrived in Taiyuan.
They rested in a hidden valley, and everyone took the time to recover their strength.
The valley was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation, as everyone was waiting for news from the reconnaissance team ahead.
More than half an hour later.
The sound of hurried horse hooves broke the silence of the valley.
The reconnaissance team rode back to the main force.
The captain quickly dismounted, walked quickly to the monk, and reported: "Report to the battalion commander, we have found a particularly good launch position around Taiyuan Airport, which is fully capable of carrying out a blanket saturation strike on Taiyuan Airport."
“Very good, well done.
You lead the way, and the special forces battalion will go over and set up the launch position immediately." The monk said decisively.
As the monk's order was given, the soldiers of the special forces battalion acted quickly. They organized their equipment and prepared to follow the reconnaissance team to the launch location.
