The self-propelled anti-aircraft gun used by Tang Chen was actually loaded with a lot of ammunition, with a full base of four hundred rounds of 37mm anti-aircraft shells.

But no matter how many shells there are, they can't withstand Tang Chen's hard work!

Tang Chen first used this anti-aircraft gun to destroy more than a self-propelled artillery battalion and more than ten transport aircraft, which was hundreds of rounds fired.

Then use this anti-aircraft gun to intercept all kinds of artillery shells thrown by two artillery battalions! This is another hundred or so artillery shells fired!

Now this anti-aircraft gun has been used to intercept more than a hundred air-to-surface missiles and shoot down eight fighter jets. How many shells were fired?

So a total of four hundred cannonballs were "made" by Tang Chen!

When did the systematic Tang Chen suffer the loss of running out of ammunition and food?

So the "heroic" Tang Chen threw out another fifty points of "up to" merit, and a base number of anti-aircraft shells were instantly replenished.

Then the "bang bang bang" sound of Tang Chen's anti-aircraft guns sounded again on the battlefield.

But pitifully, Tang Chen's astonishingly small number of more than 300 points of merit had really dropped from the 300 mark at this moment, turning into nearly 300 points of merit.

"What are you doing standing there?! Take the ammunition from another self-propelled anti-aircraft gun and give it to me!"

Tang Chen, who had spent his meritorious service in exchange for cannonballs, felt pain in his heart at this moment, so he looked particularly displeased at the guards standing beside him.

Lao Ma, the temporary captain of the Hunter Special Warfare Brigade and also the leader of the security squad, was puzzled when he heard this: Don't the guns and cannons in Tang Chen's hands always have unlimited ammunition? When do you need to replenish ammunition?

But Tang Chen asked to dismantle the ammunition, so Lao Ma could only lead people to dismantle the ammunition honestly.

So the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun that broke its barrel at the beginning of the war and was used as a transport vehicle was dismantled completely by the security squad.

In this way, the Liaocheng Port defense battle fell into a stalemate.

Having lost the BXK1 aviation division commander of an aviation brigade, it is of course impossible for him to line up fighter jets to send achievements to Tang Chen's anti-aircraft guns.

So he commanded a group of fighter jets to wander outside the range of Tang Chen's anti-aircraft guns, harassing Tang Chen's positions with air-to-surface missiles from a distance, and at the same time consuming Tang Chen's anti-aircraft gun shells.

The airborne division brigade commander, who yelled several times into the walkie-talkie, finally accepted the fact that the friendly air force was powerless.

So he had to organize a "pseudo" mechanized infantry regiment under his command that had lost its armored vehicles, and cooperated with the local garrison division's motorized infantry regiment to attack Tang Chen's position.

But of course, the brigade commander could not use the lives of soldiers to consume the hunters' shells and bullets, so the attacks he commanded were mainly exploratory attacks.

After testing out the Hunter's cannon, machine gun or artillery positions, direct the self-propelled artillery scattered in the mountains to carry out a certain counterattack.

However, his self-propelled artillery regiment lost two battalions when it was airborne. Later, one and a half battalions were bombed by the air force of the Southeast Military Region. The remaining one and a half battalions still had many guns that could not be moved out of the ravines.

So how much fire suppression can his artillery regiment provide?

The sound of artillery fire in twos and threes was not as loud as the voices of his infantrymen!

Time passed quietly in the infantry's probing attack and the air force's cannon evaluation.

Thirty minutes later, Tang Chen's radar saw the BXK1 Aviation Division of the Northwestern Military Region beginning to return.

"Withdrawn? Were you scared away by one of my anti-aircraft guns?" Tang Chen was confused.

But it was best to withdraw, because in just thirty minutes, Tang Chen knocked out three more anti-aircraft artillery shells.

In other words, if these airmen don't withdraw, Tang Chen's pitiful achievements will not even reach 200.

Five minutes later, the two infantry regiments of the Northeast Military District, which had charged countless times but failed to break through the Hunters' fire net, also began to retreat.

Only the "corpses" covered with red smoke pillars were left on the ground.

If Tang Chen hadn't ordered to save bullets and artillery shells, there would have been many more "corpses" added during the retreat!

"The enemy has given up? If we had persisted for another ten minutes, our army would have run out of ammunition!"

The hunters are strong and can withstand several times the ammunition of ordinary soldiers, but they cannot withstand the seemingly onslaught of two entire regiments of infantry!

After another fifteen minutes, Tang Chen finally understood why the enemy troops retreated so slowly:

I saw nearly two hundred fighter jets from the Southeast Military Region flying over Liaocheng Port!

"It turns out that reinforcements from the navy's main fleet have arrived! No wonder these enemy forces retreated so decisively!"

Tang Chen calculated the time at this time, and it seemed that it was really "less than an hour" as Deng Yongsi said.

Twenty minutes later, nearly a hundred amphibious landing ships landed on the beach in front of Liaocheng Port.

An entire division of marines rushed out from the amphibious landing ship and took over the entire Liaocheng Port position in less than ten minutes.

When Tang Chen saw the commander of the Marine Division, the senior colonel actually took the lead in saluting Tang Chen, and then said to Tang Chen politely:

"Major Tang, you have worked hard! All members of the Navy will never forget your outstanding contribution today! Now, you can go down and rest. Just leave this place to us!"

Tang Chen found that the navy in the South East Military Region liked to say "leave it to us". Perhaps this elite force was confident that no matter what happened, nothing would go wrong after they took over.

But with the endorsement of Deng Yongsi's previous performance, Tang Chen really believed that this place could be safely defended by the navy.

So he quickly returned the greeting to the Marine Division commander and agreed: "Okay! Sorry to trouble you!"

"No trouble! It's my duty!" The division commander answered very politely.

Then Tang Chen led his hunters towards the naval logistics fleet still anchored in Liaocheng Port.

The hunters are out of ammunition and need to resupply.

The Hunter also has a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun with a broken barrel and needs repair.

In addition, barrels damaged by overheating and fired multiple times during the battle need to be replaced and maintained.

What's more important is that from the time we set out on the mission at 10:30 in the morning to now at 4:30 in the afternoon, we have basically been engaged in fierce fighting for the entire six hours.

The hunters stopped eating and didn't even have time to take a sip of water.

Therefore, it is even more necessary to go to the logistics fleet to eat and rest at this time.

…

It is worth mentioning that Song Kaifei actually survived the fierce half-hour air battle just now.

If it weren't for Song Kaifei, the interim aviation commander who has flown helicopters but never fighter jets, he was so lucky.

That can only be attributed to the fact that either the main pilot of Song Kaifei's fighter jet was too skilled, or the overall air combat commander Deng Yongsi deliberately took care of it.

No, as soon as Tang Chen thought of Deng Yongsi, he heard someone's familiar voice wailing:
Chapter completed!
