Chapter 1167 Ace versus Ace! (Please vote for the first month of the month!)
Since the air battle over Fululing began, there have been more than 20,000 to 30,000 Chinese and Japanese people in the Fululing area watching the battle.
The maximum speed of both fighters exceeds 400 kilometers per hour, and they can fly five or six kilometers in one minute. The battlefield where hundreds of fighter planes fight spans 30 to 40 kilometers. Not only Wululing, Niangziguan, and even the people in the Jingxing area can
Looking up, he could clearly see the scene of the air battle. Even the 101st and 12th divisions, which were fighting the fifth division thirty or forty kilometers away in the dark, could see the fighter planes dragging long plumes of smoke away from the battlefield, or they were injured.
The Chuang Fighter couldn't control it and fell headlong into the mountain, and white flowers bloomed in the sky.
We also have our own fighter planes in the northern battlefield. Regardless of victory or defeat, as long as the fighter planes appear, it can be regarded as a shot in the arm for the Chinese soldiers!
As the fighter planes with red suns painted on their tails fell one after another, the excitement on the faces of Chinese soldiers and civilians on the ground almost overflowed. Even on the front line against the Fifth Division, some Chinese soldiers shouted slogans to celebrate the victory in the sky.
Victory, not afraid of exposing himself and being bombarded by Japanese grenade!
Even further on the eastern front, Commander Liu, who was known for his restraint, sent telegrams to inquire about the status of the air combat. After receiving Commander Zhao's delighted reply, he laughed loudly. He, who had never smoked, also specifically sought out his political colleagues.
The director asked for a cigarette and lit it.
On the other hand, the Japanese army's morale was low and even the attack was suspended!
In other words, the focus of this air battle is not just on the Niangziguan area!
The man sitting at the headquarters seemed calm, but only the aide-de-camp who knew him well knew that not saying a word for nearly 10 minutes already represented extreme anxiety.
After all, that is the largest fleet that China can muster. Although the Mao Xiong Kingdom still has 120 fighter jets to be delivered, it will have to wait until 2 months later. By then, the fierce battle in Central China will have already begun.
it's over.
"Do you want to ask about the second theater?" the attendant asked cautiously.
"No need. It is said that we should do our best to obey fate. Besides, since Mr. Tang from Niangziguan dares to propose this tactic, he will have a way to win this victory in the sky and on the ground!" The man stood up and said calmly.
"What do you mean?" The attendant took a breath.
"Hmph! If it weren't for Mr. Tang's instigation behind the scenes, how could he, Mr. Yan, have such courage?" A feminine voice from Jiangsu and Zhejiang sounded. "I also want to see what kind of magic power Mr. Tang has to make him think so much.
Yan Laoxi stood up for him and actually started talking to me about national strategy in a decent manner!"
Then, a smile appeared on the originally serious face: "If Mr. Tang can give me a stone gate, then what if I lose 60 fighter planes?"
The Major General's attendants were dumbfounded!
Although he knew that his boss would occasionally pay attention to the battle reports from the Northern battlefield and the Four Lines Regiment, he never thought that the boss would pay so much attention to a young colonel, and even the top-secret tactics discussed by the Second Theater and the headquarters.
He had all the plans on his head, and he was even willing to lose 60 fighter planes just to see his capabilities clearly.
The Major General's Attendant knew his leading brother very well, but he still underestimated his leading brother's ability. Putting aside his military abilities, he was definitely the leader of this era in his ability to control politics and human nature!
The more low-key Tang Dao is, the more fearful he becomes!
The current Four Elements Group makes no secret of its energy and is even in demand by the Air Force. This is great!
The sharp edge made him appreciate it more than being wary!
The airstrip in Zhengcheng had received an order before the air battle started, to clear the airport runway, wait for the fleet to land, and deploy all the anti-aircraft firepower of the first theater area around the airport to prevent retaliation from Japanese aircraft!
The lieutenant general city defense commander and the sweating colonel airport director asked his immediate boss, the general commander of the first theater: "Sir, our airport only has one runway, and the apron next to the runway cannot accommodate 60 people at all.
Fighter planes! The time is too short now, and we can’t level so much flat ground in one hour!”
The admiral commander did not answer them. He just walked to the window and stared at the blue sky. After a long time, he sighed and said: "Although I really want those young guys to fill up my Zhengcheng Airport with their fighter planes, even if they fill up my Zhengcheng Airport."
You can fill up the tarmac with old bones, but that is just a luxury after all! You guys, just follow the upper limit of 40 aircraft!"
The lieutenant general and colonel left in silence!
In fact, from the moment he received the top-secret telegram from the aide-de-camp, the admiral-commander knew that the reason why the commander chose to place the transfer airport for these war fighters in Zhengcheng was not only because of its proximity, but also because of its location in Zhengcheng.
close!
Because of the battle damage, the airport’s capacity is actually not that important!
Big bosses from all sides have their own psychological bottom line for the losses in air combat. The bigger the official, the lower the bottom line. Tactics serve strategy. For the sake of victory in the greater strategic direction, no matter whether it is a fighter plane or a soldier, even an entire division.
The army is just a chess piece on the chessboard that can be taken away at any time!
The country and the mountains are the plate, and the rest are all the sons!
However, as a son, you must also fight for yourself, even for a moment of youth!
.....................
Although China and Japan on the ground do not know the current comparison of air combat results, anyone who is not blind can see that the number of Japanese planes that crashed, suffered damage and fled the battlefield far exceeds that of the Chinese fighters!
But outsiders don’t know the suffering of those inside!
Taking into account the particularity of China's battlefield, the fuel tanks of these Yi-153 fighters exported to China have actually been enlarged, and their combat radius has reached an astonishing 700 kilometers. This performance indicator has already exceeded the combat radius.
Just 500 kilometers of 96 and 18 streets!
But from Anyan Airport to Jindong, even if it is a direct flight, it is 630 kilometers. If you add in the consumption of circling and waiting in the air, you have almost reached the limit of the combat radius. What does that mean?
This means that the fuel left for all Chinese fighter planes is only enough for them to fight in the air for twenty minutes before arriving at the Zhengcheng Airport, which is 400 kilometers away and is ready. After this time limit, the fuel will not be enough.
Although the combat radius of Japan's 96 fighter jets is small, most of them fly from airports 200 kilometers away and no more than 300 kilometers away. Their stay in the air is obviously longer.
And now, at least more than half of the fighter planes' fuel warning lights are flashing!
If a valuable fighter plane crashes due to lack of fuel, it is unacceptable for any pilot.
Therefore, when the pursuit battle began, Huang Xinrui issued an order on the radio: The strategic goal of this battle has been achieved. Once the enemy plane is shot down or the enemy plane flees away from the battlefield in confusion, all fighter planes must not hesitate to fight and take advantage of the opportunity to chase the Japanese plane.
Speed up to leave the battlefield and return to Zhengcheng Airport.
If the fighter plane is damaged and cannot be sure to fly back to the airport, you cannot parachute above the battlefield to prevent changes in wind direction from blowing the parachute to the Japanese positions. You can fly to the Niangziguan area ten kilometers away and then parachute.
Before they took off, the Second War Zone had specially sent a message to inform them that the Niangziguan area was now firmly in the hands of the Sixing Regiment, and over there, Tang Dao had already prepared a force consisting of infantry and medical soldiers.
Search and rescue teams rescued them.
The Japanese pilots also knew that this was their last ditch effort, their last chance to wash away the shame of the entire Provisional Army Aviation Corps.
There was no intention to save fuel at all. They almost turned on the afterburner to the maximum, charged at the Chinese fighter formation, then turned around, and charged and fought again.
There is a brutal confrontation like that of ancient cavalry, and at the same time, there is also the tenacity and wisdom of chasing each other up and down, staggering back and forth to seize advantageous attack positions.
From an altitude of three to four thousand meters to a low altitude of six to seven hundred meters, from directly above the Fulu Ridge battlefield to the sky more than ten kilometers or even twenty kilometers away from here, the heartbreaking sound of aircraft engines can be heard everywhere.
roars and machine gunfire.
The roar of the airflow generated by the high-speed flight of both sides even covered up the rumble of artillery that had already started on the ground.
Undoubtedly, regardless of aircraft performance, a two-aircraft formation with wingmen assisting the lead aircraft has an advantage over the single Japanese aircraft that have been separated and fighting alone.
The fighter planes from both sides chased each other for 20 to 30 kilometers. Some fighter planes flew all the way to the Niangziguan defense line. Several airspace battlefields are now less obvious. The fighter planes flew from an altitude of 4,500 meters to 1,000 meters, 800 meters or even lower.
600 meters away, a life-and-death struggle began on the ground under the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Third Battalion of the Fourth Army Regiment, the medical company, and the baggage company.
"Stand up to the top of the mountain for me, cheer for the air force brothers, and kill the Japanese!" Li Jijin ordered.
As the soldiers of the seventh company reached the top of the mountain, the eighth company, the ninth company, the artillery company, the medical company wearing red cross cuffs, and the baggage company all stood on the top of the mountain under the orders of the company commanders!
Leng Feng, as the highest commander of the Niangziguan defense line, did not give any order to stop him. He also stood in front of his headquarters and raised his gun with his guards together!
He is the top commander of the defense line and must remain calm at all times and not get angry, but this does not mean that he is not a Chinese soldier.
"Long live the Chinese Air Force!"
"Victory! Victory!"
The cheers of more than a thousand Chinese soldiers standing on the top of the mountain, holding high their various guns, echoed over the mountains like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
I don’t know if they were inspired by the support of their colleagues on the ground. A minute later, right in front of their eyes, two Japanese planes painted with red sun tails were beaten into smoke. After the pilots bailed out, they crashed into the ground.
A fireball exploded on the cliff.
Then, the four Chinese fighter planes that had won the chase battle lowered their noses to 500 meters amid the roaring tsunami on the Chinese position, and roared back to the Fulule Ridge battlefield.
On the battlefield of Fululing, more than ten thousand Chinese soldiers were ready to go. From east to west, they were in the same formation as the Japanese planes at the time, with two fighter planes in one row and two rows in one column. The aircraft were loaded on the nose.
Four Schkath machine guns pointed at the hastily built position of the Japanese army, like plowing the ground, shooting the Japanese infantrymen with blood and blood, and they were completely discouraged!
"Haha! Air Force brothers want it!"
"Mighty Air Force brothers!"
This way of repaying others with their own way is not very satisfying. The Chinese soldiers on the ground are all excited, like tigers about to be released from the cage, and they want to have a good fight with the little Japanese on the opposite side.
"Would it be more fun if this was a Warthog ground attack aircraft?" Tang Dao, who was looking at all this with a telescope, suddenly had an idea in his mind.
Tang Dao couldn't help but have the urge to salivate when he thought of the fighter aircraft that American cowboys would develop in the future with a 30mm cannon purely for attacking ground battlefields.
A 30mm cannon that can break 70mm armor fell from the sky. All trenches, bunkers, and tanks were nothing but floating clouds!
Especially when I think that as long as we persist for another two or three years, the Pacific War will break out in full force, and the big arms dealer in the United States will go all out. In order to involve the main force of the Japanese army, various weapons and equipment will be continuously shipped from the jungles of the southwest.
China
It just so happens that the patent fees generated by penicillin are enough to pay for the research and development and production of this fighter. It doesn't matter if there is no jet at this stage, and it doesn't matter if it flies slower. Anyway, there are no surface-to-air missiles at this time, right?
As long as we can bring that 5-ton 30mm machine gun into the sky, what we need is an aerial turret!
As for whether the Warthog will pose a threat to Chinese soldiers in the future, since Tang Dao can produce the Warthog in advance, it will naturally have higher-end weapons and equipment to deal with it.
Give him ten years, and the Americans will never think of using artillery and fighter planes to crush them in time and space again!
No one expected that this temporary trick played by four Chinese fighter planes would actually inspire Tang Tuanzuo, and he would eventually bring the "corkscrew" that the Japanese Army would fear on the Chinese battlefield a full 30 years in advance.
The 30mm artillery shells that an adult can't hold in his hand, that so-called flying machine gun, can carry 2,800 rounds.
The firepower performance indicators proposed by Tang Tuanzuo made American engineers call it the most abnormal firepower requirement in history, no one!
Tang Dao was still rambling to explain to Mr. Zhao what the 'warthog' he blurted out was. In the sky, four Chinese fighter jets were cheering "Long live the Chinese Air Force!"
They shook the wings to express their salute to the Chinese Army, then raised the nose of the plane and jumped to an altitude of 1,000 meters, drawing an arc and heading east.
Although precious fuel was consumed, they also used up all their ammunition to reduce their load, which did not violate military orders. This group of brave young men could only express their respect for their comrades in this way.
From the sky, they could see very clearly. As far as they could see, the Niangziguan position was covered with shell craters, showing how fierce the previous battlefield was, but their army comrades won!
Such an army is naturally worthy of respect, by everyone!
The four Chinese fighter pilots who did not fully implement military orders were not criticized. It is not that they did the right thing, but that their instructors did not have time to find fault with them. If they dared to do this during aviation school training, they would definitely be furious.
The chief instructor scolded me to the point of being autistic!
At this time, Huang Xinrui was leading a wingman piloted by Chen Ping, one of his best students, to pursue a Japanese plane.
This was definitely a cunning opponent. During the second battle between two aircraft formations at an altitude of 3,000 meters, Huang Xinrui noticed him.
It was this Japanese plane that punched a row of bullet holes in the aircraft numbered 009, the captain of the 4th Aviation Squadron, nicknamed "Great Sage", including the cockpit glass cover. If the armor of the cockpit was not strong enough, Huang Xinrui estimated that "
The Great Sage" did not continue to tell everyone the inspirational story of how a monkey grew up to become the Monkey King in his free time at night.
And he himself, at a relative speed of up to 900 kilometers per hour, not only hit his opponent, but also cleverly used the wing vibration to make the high-speed aircraft have slight trajectory changes, thus avoiding the vital points and shooting at it crazily.
The 62mm bullet stream only penetrated the skin of its fuselage, but did not cause any damage to its engine fuel tank, cockpit and other key parts.
The four gold stars on its fuselage clearly tell everyone that this is an ace pilot!
When he led 6 Japanese planes back to the battlefield, and after a two-minute fight with Huang Xinrui, and after the two planes cooperated in the attack, they finally lost their strength and began to flee, Huang Xinrui became even more sure that this was not only
The ace pilot of the Japanese army was one of the strongest opponents he encountered after returning to China.
Not only does he have superb flying skills, but the most rare thing is his extremely tenacious will to fight.
During several hedging fights, he had several opportunities to lock on to his aircraft and destroy it, but Huang Xinrui, who did not want to damage the fighter plane, had no choice but to evade it with a desperate Saburo-style shot, or he dived to a low altitude.
The Chinese positions were too close, and Huang Xinrui was afraid that the plane would not hit him when he threw his mouse-bore weapon, but would hit his own head with a bullet chain, which would be a no-brainer.
But now, taking advantage of his wingman Chen Ping's plane to attract his full attention, Huang Xinrui, who made a small-radius turning maneuver at low altitude and then rushed to high altitude again, finally came behind him, occupied the most advantageous position, and began the final battle.
