Chapter 392 Victory belonging to the Chinese soldiers

  “Fire!”

 “Fire!”

  ….

 With the roars of ground commanders at all levels including Cheng Tieshou.

On the ground, tongues of fire that had been dormant for a long time suddenly erupted, covering the sky above the position.

 Visible to the naked eye, sparks were flying from the speeding Hawk III fuselage.

Like a petrel soaring in a hail of bullets, he still flies forward with all his strength.

Although the shooters at various firepower points had tried their best to avoid him and pointed their guns at the Japanese planes following behind, bullets from anti-aircraft machine guns continued to fall on Le Yiqing's fighter plane.

The only good thing is that the shooters of all anti-aircraft guns deliberately placed their shooting airspace behind the Hawk III fighter, so no 20mm cannon shells have hit the Hawk III. Otherwise, how can the cockpit of the Hawk III fighter be protected by bulletproof panels?

, it is estimated that it will not be able to escape the fate of machine destruction and human death.

 Yes, the Chinese ace pilot dared to enter low altitude and request ground firepower, not only because of his own courage, but also because of his support.

The Hawker III fighter's top speed is not as good as that of the 96 Ship Fighter, its pull-up speed is also not as good, and its turning radius is larger than that of the 96 Ship Fighter. To put it bluntly, in addition to being equipped with a 12.7mm machine gun, its firepower is stronger than that of the 96 Ship Fighter. Other data

None of them are as good as the main fighter aircraft equipped by Japan HNA.

 But why did the Chinese Air Force not only not lose in the several air battles between Chinese fighter planes and the Japanese navy and army in the early stages of the Battle of Songhu, but actually gain the upper hand? That is not just the reason for the courage to sacrifice one's life.

The engine power of the Hawker III is almost the same as that of the 96 Ship Battle. The reason why the maneuverability is much different is not only because it has an old bi-wing structure. Its empty weight of 1480 kg is much higher than that of the 96 Ship Battle.

The empty weight of 1210 kilograms is more than 200 kilograms higher.

Heavy weight may not mean that the body is stronger, but it is definitely thicker. The most important thing is that American designers installed bulletproof plates on the Hawk III's cockpit and engine. The total weight of the 10 mm thick steel plate is

Up to more than 100 kilograms.

The Japanese military industrialists voted with their feet and omitted all these "useless" steel plates.

The reason is also very simple and crude. The extra 100 kilograms of useless weight reduces the fighter's maneuverability. How can it be comprehensively superior to China's main fighter Hawk III?

Even half a year before the outbreak of the war, stingy military industrialists dismantled wireless communication devices on their own. As a result, Japanese pilots who wanted to communicate had to rely on the wings of the aircraft or the pilot's gestures in the air.

In this regard, the pilots of the Japanese navy and army could only use the word "Baga" to express their dissatisfaction.

 Are you afraid of the inconvenience? Absolutely not.

In order to allow pilots to accept this primitive method of communication, Japan's military-industrialists, who voted with their feet, did not even design a cockpit cover.

 That is, just like the motorcycles of the future, it is equipped with a windshield that blocks the face and has no roof.

 There is a windshield to block the whistling cold wind, but you are still wearing windproof glasses. What else do you think? Japanese military engineers have taken their stinginess to the extreme.

  Nima... the Japanese navy is angry!

So, the Navy spent half a year installing wireless communicators on the aircraft.

 Hmm, I'm sorry...the Japanese Army is no longer involved.

 As a result, the Army Aviation Corps still had to rely on their own hands.

 The reason is that the Japanese navy has sufficient funds, but army morons, what can you say if you don’t have money?

 So, at this time, Japan's Hainan Airlines could use wireless communicators to communicate, but the miserable Japan Air Lines had to rely on waving their wingtips.

 But one thing they have in common is that the aircraft cockpit, that is, the aircraft cockpit, has nothing to do with bulletproofing.

 Chinese ace pilots bet that they can be hit by heavy machine gun bullets and survive the wave with the help of bulletproof panels. But for the Japanese, as long as the cockpit is shot by heavy machine gun bullets, it will only be cold.

 For Kotaro Koizumi, who was almost blinded by the countless tongues of flames that suddenly burst out from the ground at this time, he found that his thoughts were really too beautiful.

Because the Chinese anti-aircraft guns were concerned about the Chinese fighter planes that were still flying fast in front, they placed their ballistics behind the Chinese fighter planes. In fact, they did not pose a great threat to the three 96-ship battles that were almost close to the Chinese fighter planes.

 But the terrible thing is that the Chinese shooters who realize this are not expecting to hit them, but to block them.

  Block off high altitudes.

His previous idea that once the Chinese opened fire, he would lead his two colleagues to run away came to nothing.

 What was even more terrible was not the anti-aircraft guns equipped with high-explosive warheads, but the anti-aircraft machine guns with limited shooting height that he despised.

The shooting height of 800 meters is not very good, but it is enough to threaten fighters flying at an altitude of 700 meters.

Especially when there are enough machine guns, more than 20 anti-aircraft machine guns and dozens of light machine guns can shoot nearly a thousand rounds of bullets into the air in one second, and the torrent of steel ejected is like a future Phalanx.

Same as close range artillery.

 It does not rely on accuracy, but on increasing the probability to the limit.

 As long as one percent of the bullets hit, there will be several more bullet holes in the 96 ship battle. And in the narrow cockpit, as long as one hits...

There is a lot of fat on the butt, but it is not a bulletproof plate.

Looking at the sparkling Hawker III continuing to soar in the hail of bullets, Kotaro Koizumi finally figured out why the Chinese ace pilot adopted such a "stupid" tactic. It was because he was even stupider!

He thought he had figured it out, but he still had to bite the bullet and rush forward in such a terrifying hail of bullets.

The bombs on the belly and under the wings were left in the wilderness by three 96s in order to catch up with China's ace fighter a few minutes ago. They lost their best weapon for ground attack.

 So, now the fate is not in his hands, but in the hands of Amaterasu. It will take 10 seconds before he and his colleagues can break out of the rain of bullets.

 But obviously, under the sky of China, the lucky halo of Amaterasu thrown over from Japan was suppressed.

 Three Japanese aircraft without bulletproof panels were unlucky.

The first person to bear the brunt was Captain Koizumi Kotaro, who had two big holes in his face but was still alive and was awarded a medal.

 Ten seconds later, his plane was still speeding through the air.

However, the fuselage was hit by at least thirty anti-aircraft machine gun bullets, and the belly and wings of the fuselage were covered with bullet holes. That was not the most deadly thing. The most deadly thing was that an anti-aircraft machine gun bullet penetrated through the bottom of the cockpit, because

Due to the roll, it miraculously missed the fat and fleshy buttocks of the second commander of the Japanese aircraft formation, but hit his lower jaw, commonly known as his chin.

This time, instead of smashing his gums which already had few teeth, the skin was torn off the entire face, even covering his goggles.

The poor Japanese naval aviation captain howled miserably and reached out to take off the skin from his goggles, but his eyes were already dark. He didn't even realize that he had pushed the rudder down in the severe pain, and the 96 was still intact.

The ship's battle plummeted downwards, rushing towards the ground like a sharp arrow.

His incredible maneuverability was fully demonstrated at this moment. Just five seconds later, a fireball flashed on the ground.

 The second commander of the Japanese attacking aircraft group was killed.

 The pilot of the only 96-ship battleship that broke out of the fire net looked back at where he came from and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Captain Koizumi Kotaro was killed. Another of his companions had earlier been driven up desperately out of fear and was directly hit by several anti-aircraft artillery shells on the tail. The fighter plane that lost its tail stalled completely and spiraled in the air. Before it fell,

On the ground, more than a dozen machine guns chased and fired, hitting the fuel tank and causing a fire and explosion.

 And various indicator lights on his dashboard were flashing crazily, reminding him that he was not intact, and it was unknown whether he could fly back to the mothership.

 With the two in the air, there were only three of them left.

This battle is lost!

 A complete defeat!

 “Retreat!” The Japanese HNA pilot who narrowly escaped no longer had the will to fight.

 The battle head of the 96th ship, dragging white smoke, flew forward without any hesitation and fled the battlefield.

 The other two planes also fled at high speed.

If the Chinese ace pilots waiting at low altitudes jump to high altitudes, their death will be imminent.

 Yes, although the Hawk III, which was located in the low altitude, was hit in many places by machine gun bullets, he was still alive and strong.

 At this time, the troops had begun to turn forward and were about to return to the sky above the infantry positions on the ground.

 “Win!” Looking at the ‘Eight Star’ fighter plane that was not seriously injured, Tang Dao breathed a sigh of relief and waved his fist vigorously.

"we won?"

 “Yes, we won!”

  …

The ground troops were in disbelief at first, and finally came to this conclusion after watching the last three Japanese planes escape in the distance.

Putting a gun on his back, he rushed out of the woods and waved wildly at the sky.

 The cheers of thousands of people were like a roaring mountain and a tsunami!

  This is a victory for the Chinese soldiers, both the army and the air force!

 In this battle, the Chinese Air Force lost 7 fighter planes, 5 pilots were killed, and the Chinese Army lost 102 people.

The Japanese invaders lost 15 fighter planes in the battle, but none of the pilots survived!
