Chapter 0328 The Imperial Falcon with Broken Wings!
"Oh, my God, that madman really did it. I thought his 37-gun anti-aircraft masturbation was a joke. I didn't expect that he actually did it."
At an altitude of 7,000 meters, Brooke complained loudly when he saw the Japanese bombers exploding.
He originally thought that Dragon Boat Festival was joking, using the 37 anti-tank cannon to masturbate a plane, or it was possible. After all, he had heard that the Germans had done this. But he didn't expect that this anti-tank cannon could really masturbate a plane, and it was so accurate.
.
Because the accuracy of the 37 anti-tank gun is really not high, its effective range is less than one thousand meters.
So Brooke feels that sometimes luck cannot be stopped when it comes.
Another American pilot, Paul, thought the same way. He felt that the Chinese were extremely lucky.
He said to Brooke over the radio: "Brother, it seems that we can only risk our lives to accompany the gentleman today. But I have some doubts about whether the Chinese lunatic can cash in two gold bars for one plane."
"Don't worry, if he doesn't deliver, I will kick his ass, hahaha!"
Brook replied, and then two Hawker 3 fighter jets dived down from high altitude and attacked the Japanese fighter group.
Just like an eagle catching a chicken, when the enemy was unaware and all their eyes were attracted by the anti-aircraft fire appearing on the ground, two Hawker 3 fighter jets fell from the sky, and the two machine guns on board fired at the same time.
The bullets formed a beautiful line of fire in the air, just like gamma rays that can cut metal. The two Japanese fighter jets were sliced open by the bullets without even realizing it.
Of course, saying it was cut open by bullets is an exaggeration. The wings and tail of the plane were full of neat bullet holes.
The Japanese plane was flying at high speed, and the huge wind pressure was enough to tear small bullet holes from the middle.
The wing of a Japanese fighter jet was broken, and the aircraft lost its balance and fell to the ground. The tail of another aircraft was cut off, and it rolled continuously in the air and fell into the distance.
But this was just the beginning. Many Japanese aircraft were hit in a straight line of bullet fire. Many Japanese pilots did not know what was going on because they were focused on the artillery fire on the ground and completely ignored it.
Well, enemy planes appeared above their heads.
So the Japanese pilot is only asking one thing at this moment, and that is what happened?
"Baga! Blow up the two anti-aircraft guns on the ground first."
The captain of the Japanese flying wing didn't know what was going on, because everyone's attention was on the ground troops. They even thought that the Chinese had come up with some new anti-aircraft weapons and damaged their fighter planes.
There were still six bombers in the Third Flying Group that had not fully dropped their bombs. Three of them were injured and could not adjust their attitude correctly and could only respond from the side. The other three bombers dived down and conducted dive bombing on the artillery positions of Duanwu and Sun Shiyu.
Duanwu and Sun Shiyu fired two shots in a row but failed to hit it.
Of course, this is not because Duanwu and Sun Shiyu's artillery skills have deteriorated. It is because the Japanese aircraft were not aware of it at all before. Their formation was a bomber formation formed to drop bombs on the main position of Yushan.
Their speed will not change, their direction of action will not change, and the angle of their dive will not change. In this way, Duanwu and Sun Shiyu do not need to think too much after aiming at this formation, even if the shells cannot hit the fighter plane in front, they will explode.
It is possible to reach the fighter plane behind, or the fighter plane on the left, or the fighter plane on the right.
This is like a sniper with excellent marksmanship using a sniper rifle to hit a six-story building one thousand meters away.
Maybe even without an optical sight, this shot would still hit. It's because his target is too big. It's that simple.
But the other two Japs were hit by their bombings, so they had a little more luck.
At that time, the Japanese bomber that was hit by the shell exploded, which shocked other Japanese pilots.
The Japanese pilots were panicking to avoid the flying debris. The entire flight formation was very chaotic. Several fighter planes almost didn't collide with each other, so they gave the Dragon Boat Festival a chance for a second bombardment.
In other words, it was not the Dragon Boat Festival shells that hit the target, but the Japanese plane itself hit the Dragon Boat Festival shells. It was as simple as that.
But once the Japanese were alert, it would not be easy for the Dragon Boat Festival shells to hit them again.
However, it is not that simple for the Japanese army to accurately hit an artillery position 20 square meters on the ground. They can achieve such accuracy by diving at least 200 to 300 meters above the ground.
The Japanese planes escaped the Dragon Boat Festival artillery attacks twice and were less than 800 meters away from the ground. They were ready to drop bombs after another 400 meters.
The Japanese pilots laughed wildly, because they had practiced this type of dive bombing countless times and would never miss it.
Dragon Boat Festival loudly ordered: "Cannonballs, cannonballs!"
Sun Shiyu also pushed the shell into the barrel at this time.
But the aircraft had exceeded the elevation of their guns.
Shooting was useless. Duanwu looked at the incoming planes in the sky and had only one thought: order Sun Shiyu and other artillerymen to leave as soon as possible and not to make fearless sacrifices.
They have done a good enough job, destroying and damaging 15 Japanese aircraft, and the Japanese flying wing has suffered heavy losses.
Although Duanwu also wanted to continue to expand the battle damage, the Japanese pilot's driving skills were so excellent that he failed to hit it with two shots.
Therefore, a defeat is a defeat. Dragon Boat Festival is not pretentious at all and is ready to retreat immediately.
I just didn't expect that at this moment, the machine gunners from Xie Jinyuan, Zhu Shengzhong's 2nd Battalion, 2nd Special Agent Company, and 3rd Company suddenly rushed out of the woods. Various machine guns were aimed at the aircraft in mid-air and fired wildly.
More than a hundred machine guns pulled the triggers and fired continuously, and the bullets formed a golden barrage in mid-air.
The little Japanese was caught off guard. Three bombers collided with the sudden barrage and were instantly riddled with holes.
The bottom of the cabin of the bomber flying at the front was penetrated, and seven or eight bullets were fired into the body of the Japanese pilot from under the seat.
The squadron leader died on the spot, and the plane lost control and fell to the ground. The other two fighter planes were also attacked like a storm.
The engine of one plane was destroyed, and the other plane was turned into a hornet's nest in mid-air and exploded before it could drop a bomb.
The Japanese pilots overlooked one point: only one mixed company of Chinese troops was wiped out on the position, while the others were living well.
And especially Xie Jinyuan, after he rushed out during the Dragon Boat Festival, he had been paying attention to this battle and ordered that once the regiment was in danger, the regiment must be kept even if everyone was killed.
So after the Japanese planes swooped down and both Duanwu and Sun Shiyu's guns missed, he rushed out with his men and fired wildly at the three fighter planes.
More than a hundred machine guns fired at the same time, and the bullets were like a heavy rain. None of the three Japanese planes were spared. They either lost control and crashed under Yushan Mountain, or they disintegrated and exploded in the air.
"Bagaya road!"
The captain of the air wing felt that something was not good. His air wing came to Yushan to bomb. He thought it was a matter of control. But he did not expect such a huge loss to occur. More than half of the fighter planes were damaged or destroyed.
"Reporting to your Excellency, we are running out of fuel and must return as soon as possible... Ding, ding, ah? I was hit. The enemy plane is the enemy's plane, ah!..."
The pilot of a bomber was making a report. Unexpectedly, a series of metal collision sounds were heard, followed by the pilot's screams.
The flight commander watched helplessly as a bomber on his right wing burst into smoke and flames and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, another fighter of the flying wing was damaged, and the pilot requested an emergency landing.
"Baga Yalu, find him for me and kill them."
The flight commander steered the aircraft diagonally upward to the left to avoid ground artillery fire, and took the opportunity to look for enemies in the air.
The wing leader was flying a Japanese Type 97 fighter jet. The overall performance of the aircraft was average, but its advantages were its stability and maneuverability.
The Little Devil attaches great importance to the maneuverability and speed of the aircraft. This is because the Japanese military believes that fast maneuverability can better respond to enemy attacks and quickly counterattack, etc.
And just as the little devil expected, although the Type 97 fighter jet is slightly inferior to the Type 96 fighter jet in terms of performance, its stability and rapid maneuverability allow it to occupy the position of the main fighter jet.
He quickly climbed up and turned around, and soon saw two Hawker 3 fighter jets, slaughtering his empire's bomber group like wolves into the herd. Two bombers exploded and caught fire, and three other aircraft were injured. And his fighter group
There was only one other one left.
"Baga, Xiaoban, follow me to meet the enemy. The other bombers will quickly leave. You can fly back to the airport."
"Hi!"
The commander of the Japanese aviation wing gave the order for another fighter to make an emergency climb and turn to meet Brooke's fighter plane. The captain of the flying wing encountered Paul's fighter plane head-on.
Both sides are extremely good pilots. In the first battle, neither side hit the other side, and the two planes almost passed each other, with the closest distance being less than one meter.
Paul was so frightened that he almost suffered a cardiac arrest, because he was just one step away from going to see God.
While crossing himself, he complained to Brooke: "Damn, what the hell, this should be the enemy's command plane. If I had known, I would have killed him first."
On the other side of the radio, Brooke joked: "Paul, go ahead and kill him. I think that Chinese lunatic will reward you with four gold bars."
Paul said disdainfully: "Gold bars are good, but life flowers are also good. Please solve the battle on your side quickly. I need your help."
"Copy that, give me twenty minutes, I think I can do it."
Brooke was not joking this time, because the pilot of the Japanese fighter plane he encountered was also an experienced squadron leader.
Two people are fighting each other, and there is no clear winner.
Duan Wu frowned, and he asked two Americans to make a sneak attack and kill the Japanese fighter jets first. But who knew, they actually killed several bombers, but two fighter jets were left behind.
Moreover, Duanwu could see that the Japs who controlled these two Japanese fighter planes were not bad at all. In any case, they were much better than him.
Will there be flights during the Dragon Boat Festival?
He can also fly. Although he has never flown a World War II airplane, it probably won't be more complicated than today's airplanes, right?
So if he is allowed to get on the plane, he can still fight the Japanese.
However, this will have to wait until he becomes familiar with the aircraft's capabilities.
The top priority is to kill the Japanese bombers, and the more, the better.
What's more, the little devil is really a bad guy. The two fighter jets actually scared away the other bombers.
Dragon Boat Festival ordered Sun Shiyu: "Hurry, Old Sun, fire ten rounds rapidly. If you can knock down one, I will give you two gold bars."
Sun Shiyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the side, and thought to himself: When will my old grandson ask for your gold bars? Isn't it my duty to fight the Japanese?
Without saying a word, Sun Shiyu adjusted the muzzle of the gun and pointed it in the direction of the retreating Japanese bombers. However, the angle of the muzzle was adjusted too slowly. He ordered the soldiers to quickly pad the gun.
The soldiers searched everywhere, but there was not even a stone on the bare mountain.
Moreover, time no longer allowed them to linger any longer. The Japanese aircraft were circling and adjusting and would fly away immediately.
After the two artillerymen looked at each other, they could only put their feet underneath.
"The camp is ready!"
The two artillerymen shouted at the same time, and Sun Shiyu didn't think much about it because the fighter plane was fleeting. He pulled the throw latch.
boom!
The shell flew out of the barrel, and the huge recoil pushed the two soldiers' feet heavily to the ground. The two soldiers looked in pain, but they didn't make a single sound.
Because they can't cry out in pain, once they cry out in pain, the battalion commander will know. They can only silently bear the pain of having their foot bones crushed.
At the same time, there was a loud bang, and the tail of a Japanese bomber 1,300 meters away was hit by a shell.
The huge explosion ripped off most of the tail of the Japanese aircraft.
The Japanese plane that lost its tail was like a headless fly, rolling continuously in the air, and then crashed into the Japanese camp.
Sun Shiyu shouted excitedly: "Cannonball, cannonball! Let me shoot again."
At the same time, the Dragon Boat Festival also hit a hit. A 37mm howitzer made a sharp whistling sound and pierced the rear butt of the Japanese aircraft without any suspense.
Duanwu has already found his skills. He has used anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns before while masturbating. This is the first time he has used this type of 37 anti-aircraft gun.
But this was not the first time he had used the 37 anti-tank guns. There were two anti-tank guns in the Sihang Warehouse, and they were used to attack the Japanese tanks during the Dragon Boat Festival.
So at this time, he was at least 70% sure that he was going to hit it perfectly.
"Load, load!"
Duanwu was also giving orders loudly. He should blow up as many Japanese planes as possible within the reach of the anti-war artillery. And even if they couldn't be blown up, it didn't matter, the shells would still fall into the Japanese camp.
At this time, the Japanese camp at Namada Chuichi had been reduced to a huge garbage dump. Plane wreckage, crashed planes, artillery shells, and even stray bullets from machine guns all fell into Namada Chuichi's military camp.
Old Japs Botian was going crazy with hatred and ordered: "Let the artillery launch an artillery attack on the Yushan position, and order Matsushita Jinji to lead his people to attack the Beishan position of Yushan immediately. Baga, I can't let the Chinese do this."
Keep being arrogant."
"Your Excellency, Commander Matsui called and ordered our troops to capture Yushan before dark. He will try to hold back China's reinforcements. But our troops must capture Yushan before dark."
At this moment, the communications soldier came to report to Namada Chuichi.
Namada Chuichi chuckled and said: "I know, it's only eleven o'clock in the morning, there are still six or seven hours until dark, this is enough. Quick, order Matsushita Keiji to set off immediately, tell him that this is Matsui-dono's Order!"
"Hi!"
The Japanese messenger took the order and quickly rushed to convey the orders of Namada Chuichi to Matsushita Keiji.
Matsushita Keiji is a middle-aged senior Japanese military officer who also had outstanding military exploits.
But last night's battle made him a little depressed. His soldiers were very brave, and tactically speaking, his 1st Infantry Regiment did not make any mistakes. But at this time, he had to endure the defeat of the defeated general. shame.
He was very angry. It was clear that there was nothing wrong with his command, but Chiaki Shigeto fell into the enemy's trap, but in the end he was implicated. Moreover, Chuichi Namada's arrogance made him very angry.
Moreover, he originally wanted to retreat to the rear to rest, but Namada Chuichi forced him to stay and asked him to wash away the shame of the imperial army.
Matsushita Keiji was angry, extremely angry. But his military rank was not as high as Namada Chuichi. He could only wipe his sword in frustration.
However, at this moment, Namada Chuichi's messenger arrived and conveyed Namada Chuichi's order to him.
Matsushita Jinji sneered, he knew that there would be no good things done by that Namada Naka if he stayed. It was a good plan to let him be cannon fodder while he sat back and enjoyed the benefits.
Next to him, Major Yamano Toshio also said dissatisfied: "Matsushita-kun, this Namada Chuichi has evil intentions. He wants to use the lives of our colleagues in the Shigeto detachment to add another star to his shoulders!"
"So what? Can we resist his orders?"
Matsushita Keiji asked back, but Yamano Toshio was speechless. The entire camp fell into a brief silence.
After a while, Matsushita Keiji made up his mind and said: "What Chuichi Namada said is right, our shame must be washed away with blood. It is daytime now, and the battle is powerful against the imperial army. And with the addition of Chuichi Namada, our shame must be washed away with blood. With one artillery and the support of two infantry regiments, we may not have no chance of winning.
And Yamano-kun, don’t you think this is an opportunity?
The position at Yushan had just been bombed by imperial planes. The Chinese must have suffered heavy losses. Moreover, they were struggling with the imperial planes. They never thought that we would attack at this time. Tell me, will this be a waste of time? Where’s the credit?”
Toshio Yamano thought for a while, gave a thumbs up and said: "Yohee, I admire Mr. Matsushita for his extraordinary wisdom. I think our Chongteng detachment will soon become the Matsushita detachment."
"Hahaha, Yamano-kun, don't say that, it will be bad if others hear it, hahaha!"
Matsushita Keiji smiled from ear to ear, because that was exactly what he thought. All the senior officers of the Chongteng detachment were dead, and only he, the army colonel, was still alive. If the Japanese headquarters did not want to give up the Chongteng detachment, then they would definitely promote him. A senior military officer takes Chiaki Shigeto's place.
And by that time, the position of brigade commander was still within his grasp, Matsushita Keiji?
Thinking of this, Matsushita Keiji felt more and more that this was an opportunity. He ordered his troops to be reorganized into six infantry squadrons, quietly climbed the mountain from the foot of the Beishan position, and carried out his sneak attack plan on the Beishan position!...
