    Ten minutes later, the mixed aircraft group commanded by Le Yiqin arrived in the airspace of the US 7th Mechanized Infantry Division blocking position. The overwhelming large aircraft group caused an uneasy commotion among the American and Philippine soldiers at the port and on the ship. They were afraid  These black planes filling the sky are Japanese planes. If so, both the troops on the ship and at the port who have not boarded the ship will face a massacre from the air!

    Fortunately, Chief of Staff Kleist, who was always at the port directing the troops to board the ship, ordered commanders at all levels to pass on the order, "Don't panic, this is the aircraft group of our Allied Squadron, coming to cover our retreat, and  Escort our evacuation to Australia!¡±

    It was a reassurance that after the war, they were finally bitten by the Japanese army. There were hundreds of thousands of American and Philippine soldiers left. They all breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched their necks, and looked at the sky above their heads.  Formations passed by, and under the wings, the logo of a golden dragon hovering over the Great Wall shone dazzlingly under the morning sun on Luzon Island. The golden dragon seemed to be dancing alive!

    This time, Le Yiqin personally commanded the first mixed air fleet formation, dispatching three fighter regiments with more than 180 fighters, five bomber regiments, and more than 300 bombers, totaling more than 500 aircraft.  Come over and kill.

    When they arrived at the predetermined airspace, the US military command also sent the coordinates of the blocking position. Le Yiqin ordered: "The fighter formation, with the bombing area as the center, will be on guard within a radius of one hundred kilometers. Don't even give me a fly."  Come in, the bomber formations will carry out indiscriminate bombing according to the coordinates, and all aircraft groups will start taking action!"

    at the same time.  Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta, the commander of the Fourteenth Army of the Japanese Army, was furious. The report that the first attack wave was repelled has been submitted. Lieutenant General Haruta was dissatisfied. He was very annoyed and dissatisfied. If it were not for the delay in Manila,  How could the US and Philippine troops be given the opportunity to re-establish blocking positions in more than an hour?  "These stupid pigs!" Lieutenant General Springfield cursed fiercely.

    He wanted to chop off the heads of all the officers and pay the price for their stupidity and ignorance. However, he had already captured the American and Philippine troops who were preparing to escape.  Then you must not let it go, otherwise.  I am on the island of Luzon.  The plan to completely annihilate MacArthur's American troops would be in vain, and they would not be given time to board the ship. Then wouldn't it mean that another great annihilation of the enemy would be handed over to those bastards in the Navy?

    Lieutenant General Haruta said fiercely to Chief of Staff Major General Hashimoto: "Chief of Staff Hashimoto. Order all troops to storm the US blocking positions at any cost. Order the heavy artillery regiment and field artillery brigade to rush as quickly as possible."  Go to the front line and be careful not to bombard the US military positions. The target of the bombardment is the ships parked on the dock. Only by cutting off their retreat can we have a chance of total annihilation. Do you understand? "

    No matter how Lieutenant General Springfield adjusted his deployment, it was too late. After the retreating Japanese troops reorganized themselves for a while, they began a second attack. This time, they were no longer greeted by the rifles and rifles of the American and Philippine soldiers.  Light and heavy machine gun bullets, but bombs falling from the sky.

    "Boom, boom, boom!" Fire splashed, shrapnel flew across the sky, gunpowder smoke mixed with smoke and dust rose into the sky, and the huge explosion made the earth tremble.

    The bomber group of the Southern Flying Group of the ** Division was divided into several echelons. On the path of the Japanese attack, they exploded a sea of ??fire and a death field composed of steel shrapnel roaring and flying, killing more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers in one fell swoop.  Swallow it in.

    The charging Japanese soldiers crashed in and turned into mutilated corpses, with pieces of meat flying all over the sky.

    Bombs fell from the sky one after another with ear-piercing screams. The explosion points were connected one after another. There were no blind spots or places to avoid the bombs. On the ground, one after another, earthen flowers bloomed continuously, black.  In the smoke, flying were the flesh and blood of Japanese soldiers.

    After one echelon dropped bombs, the following bomber echelon began a second round of bombing. This time, "Buddha's Light" napalm bombs were used. Under the reflection of the rising sun, objects with silvery white luster were fired from the air.  It fell slowly to the ground. There was no earth-shattering noise, no dust was stirred up, and there were no shrapnel flying around. After lightly touching the ground, it suddenly cracked.

    "Peng!" A fire suddenly broke out. Immediately, countless fireballs burst out and quickly formed a sea of ??flying fire. Whether it was soil, grass, trees or rocks, everything on the ground began to burn.  Get up, the flames are burning everything, making a "beep" sound!

    Lieutenant General Jonathan looked at the sea of ????fire with some fear, smelling the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and the burnt smell of burnt flesh in the air. He swallowed hard, stayed for a while, and said to the staff: "Order  Troops, withdraw from the blocking position immediately and board the ship immediately, we are safe!"At this moment, Lieutenant General Jonathan was extremely relieved. Looking at the sea of ????fire covering the entire blockade area, the Japanese soldiers would never rush over. Even if they did, they would still be charred corpses. He was considered an old soldier. He had never  I have never seen such a horrific scene.

    "Hani? The Chinese air force appeared and violently bombarded the imperial army's offensive area. The imperial army's second attack wave suffered heavy losses. The casualties have reached more than 15,000?" After listening to the call from the commander of the forward forces  , Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta exclaimed, sitting down on the canvas chair and lowering his head slumped, damn, that Chinese devil's plane still appeared on the Luzon Island battlefield.

    As soon as the attack was launched, the casualties caused to the imperial army exceeded the casualties suffered by the US and Philippine troops in several days of fighting. In fact, this is not to blame Lieutenant General Springfield. Who could have expected that the Chinese devil's fleet suddenly appeared on the Manila defense line?  , In addition, the troops were in a dense offensive formation, which just created opportunities for the bombers to be used.

    Chief of Staff Hashimoto on the side reminded: "Your Excellency, Commander, you should immediately order the troops to stop the attack and take air defense evacuation measures. Otherwise, the casualties of the troops will be huge!" Lieutenant General Haruta nodded, and Hashimoto quickly issued instructions to the troops.  An order to stop the attack.

    Like a defeated rooster, Lieutenant General Springfield shook his head with a look of reluctance. Could it be that he just watched the American and Philippine soldiers in front of him escape from under his nose?  Moreover, the Fourteenth Army also suffered casualties among so many brave Imperial soldiers!

    Lieutenant General Springfield's heart was so depressed that he almost exploded. He stood up suddenly, his eyes were red, and roared: "No! We also have an air force. We immediately sent a telegram to Commander-in-Chief Ito. The Fourteenth Army is attacking south of Manila.  In the Lillo area, they annihilated the American and Philippine soldiers who were trying to escape. Unexpectedly, they were violently bombed by the aviation force of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli. The attack was blocked. Lieutenant General Yoshihiko Haruta, the commander of the 14th Army, requested the aviation force for tactical guidance!  "

    Lieutenant General Springfield did not expect that Commander-in-Chief Ito was more troubled and upset than him. The method Tang Qiuli used was exactly the same as the last time he escorted the British and Australian troops. He also dispatched fleet carrier-based aircraft first to contain and deter them.  The Araki Air Force and the Kuroda Air Force stopped the more than 700 fighter jets of the two air fleets from daring to act rashly. Then, they dispatched several batches of land-based fighter groups to fly towards the Coral Sea along the last route.  .

    The same method, the same number of fighter jets and bombers, knowing that Tang Qiuli's aviation was to escort the American and Philippine soldiers evacuating Luzon Island, but General Ito could only watch helplessly, in Australia, going to  The Kashima Air Force, which was throwing bombs over the heads of the British and Australian soldiers, could have its hands free, but so what, could it crush Tang Qiuli's actions?

    No, last time, the carrier-based aircraft of the two fleets and part of the land-based fighter jets of the Kashima Air Force were no match for the China Devil Fighter Group. This time, the same cannot be said. Fortunately, Tang Qiuli's hand did not reach out.  The Australian battlefield plan, otherwise, the life of the Australian Army will become difficult, and it is normal to be kicked out of the Australian continent. However, General Ito missed a trick.

    He did not expect that the first wave of the Japanese Army's aircraft would turn around and head for the Manila battlefield. After receiving the telegram from Lieutenant General Haruta Yoshihiko, he was shocked and hurriedly called back to Lieutenant General Haruta.  "Araki Air Force and Kuroda Air Force are going all out to deal with the carrier-based aircraft group of the Japanese division fleet. They cannot provide tactical guidance to your headquarters. If they cannot completely annihilate the US and Philippine forces in the Bolillo area, they can  Pause the attack to avoid causing heavy casualties to the troops!"

    Subsequently, Admiral Ito sent a telegram to Lieutenant General Shirakawa Yoshitetsu, commander of the Navy's Second Fleet, and Lieutenant General Masao Okamura, commander of the Fourth Fleet, ordering the two fleets to intercept and kill at sea at any cost.  The U.S. and Philippine military troop transport fleets retreated to Australia!

    The order has been issued. As for how the Navy fights and whether they dare to fight, that is their problem. If the two despicable guys Shirakawa and Okamura do not dare to intercept and kill the US and Philippine troop transport fleets, then they themselves  We will never let them go easily. The charges of passively avoiding battle and being fearful of the enemy cannot be escaped, General Ito thought viciously.

    Lieutenant General Haruta received the reply from General Ito. He looked at the telegram with straight eyes and his face turned purple. He held it in for a long time and suddenly shouted, "I'm so angry!" "Push! A mouthful of blood spurted out, and his eyesight went black.  , fell to the ground.

    At 10:20 a.m. on August 29, the last soldier of the US 7th Mechanized Infantry Division, who had withdrawn from the Bolillo blocking position, boarded the transport ship. Lieutenant General Jonathan took a complicated look.  , the burning position was still steaming, and he glanced at the city of Manila in the distance, shrouded in gunpowder smoke, sighed, and was the last one to board the transport ship.

    Immediately, there were waves of low whistles, which seemed to be a new owner of Luzon Island, and the finalFarewell, the Americans left, the Japanese came, and the troop transport fleet slowly left the port and sailed towards the depths of the Pacific Ocean.
