"There is always a way" is actually a rather negative statement, and its subtext is that there is currently no way.
Those who can become the first batch of Golden Eagle pilots are all sweethearts in the Air Force. Although they may not attract everyone's attention when walking in the camp, they can definitely attract the admiration of their comrades. Once upon a time, they flew the white-finned dolphins and dominated the sky. The little Japs were invincible, but now, they were being chased by fifty special attack planes and were running wildly. There was no need to mention the frustration they felt in their hearts.
Those who can become pilots are the best among the cadets in terms of physical fitness and ideological awareness. I live and the country perishes, and the country survives and I die. In their hearts, death is not a big deal, but Ouyang Yun has always attached great importance to it. The lives of cadets, especially pilots, exceed their equipment. Influenced by his thinking, the commanders of the cadet army and air force also developed this thinking habit. Therefore, when encountering such a scene, Lai Delu would give priority I consider the safety of my brothers and do not want to engage in a swap game with the little devil.
So far, Lai Delu has captured four enemy planes in previous battles, and he is still one short of becoming an ace pilot. Therefore, his desire to fight is actually stronger than others, but as a commander, He is used to thinking about the overall situation, so he behaves more conservatively and rejects the brothers' death proposal in one fell swoop. No one wants to run away blindly like this, but is there any good way? Lai Delu is flying a plane to get rid of a plane. Fifty special attack planes were pursuing the pursuit. While thinking hard, a childish voice suddenly came from the headset: "Boss, I have a feasible suggestion."
The voice was very distinctive, and Lai Delu immediately identified its owner. Although Lai Delu had not been transferred to the Zhejiang Aviation Corps for a long time, he spent all day on the training ground with his brothers, and he had already learned a lot about the personality characteristics of his men. Master, and the owner of this voice left a deep impression on Lai Delu because he was the youngest ace pilot in the Air Force's combat order.
"It's Chen Chong, tell me."
"I suggest changing the two-plane formation to a three-plane formation. If the Japs still attack wantonly, two planes will be used as bait and one will attack from the side. The ceiling of the fifty special attack planes is not as good as that of the Golden Eagle. We can use this to make a fuss."
Lai Delu listened and quickly compared the technical parameters of the Fifty Special Attack Aircraft and the Golden Eagle in his mind, and concluded that it was feasible. He then shouted: "Did you hear that? I ordered that the double-click formation be changed to a three-aircraft formation. , use an inverted triangle formation, pay attention to increase the height."
While the fifty special attack aircraft cluster was chasing the Golden Eagle cluster, in the northwest direction of the battlefield, more than 600 fighter planes from both sides were entangled and fighting fiercely. From the ground, they looked like silver. The fighter planes were flying up and down, sometimes they were being chased, and sometimes they were chasing enemy planes; tracer bullets streaked across the sky, interweaving bright trajectories one after another. From time to time, a fighter plane suddenly burst into flames, and then, a dull The sound of explosions came, and the next moment, there would be fighter jets dragging thick smoke and roaring towards the ground; and the more tragic ones would directly explode, and in the brighter firelight, they would be blown into pieces and become scattered into burning fragments,
This unprecedented battle between the Baiji Dolphin and the New Nine-Nine Type, the New Falcon Type and the Zero War was particularly brutal from the beginning. The Japanese side had to use fearless combat methods to make up for the inferior performance of its fighter aircraft. , Yamamoto Isoroku invented the special attack tactic as a last resort, as an extraordinary means to protect the combined fleet, but now it has become a bottom-line tactic for the Japanese aviation forces. The situation in the air battle is slightly unfavorable, and in their enthusiasm, they would brazenly use this tactic, and the Fujian Aviation Corps and the Zhejiang Aviation Corps' initial combat aviation forces were obviously ill-prepared for this. Therefore, although their aircraft Baiji had performance advantages, the air battle did not turn out to be as one-sided as Xue Changkong expected. ,
Half an hour after the air battle started, the Fujian Air Corps' battle losses exceeded fifty. The Zhejiang Air Corps arrived later, so its battle losses were less, but it still exceeded twenty. The air battle only lasted half an hour and it lost the Baiji Dolphin. More than seventy, this has set a new record for the number of fighter aircraft lost in a single battle since the establishment of the Xuebing Army Air Force. Considering that the air battle is far from over, this made Xue Changkong gradually sit in the general headquarters of Wuyishan Air Force Base. Can't stand it any longer,
In terms of battle loss ratio alone, the Japanese army has lost more than 150 fighter planes. In other words, the score achieved by the Xuebing Army is one to two, which seems to be not bad. However, considering that the cost of a Baiji Dolphin is two times that of Zero War. times, more than three times that of the New Falcon Type and the New Nine-Nine Type. The Xuebing Army did not actually take advantage.
The frontline battle report was telegraphed back every five minutes so that the general headquarters could grasp the frontline battle situation in a timely manner. Guan Changqian, the chief of staff of the Fujian Aviation Corps, walked up to him with a new battle report and saw his brows furrowed and his face solemn. He gritted his teeth and said solemnly: "New battle report, we have lost four more, the little devil is crazy, now we are all adopting special attack tactics, Commander, brothers are not used to this tactic yet, should we withdraw first?" "
"No, tell Liu Xuefeng that they must persist. The Japs have suffered greater losses than us. They can hold on, so why can't we hold on? Go ask Guohua and Yu Liang and ask them how they are prepared. If The preparations have been made, let them eat and prepare for war, and be ready to attack at any time."
Not long ago, the transfer of senior military officers of the Xuebing Army also involved the Air Force. Liu Xuefeng was originally the commander of the 201st Fighter Division. After being transferred to the Fujian Aviation Corps, he took over Zhang Xiaolin's position and became the commander of the 301st Fighter Division. Guohua It was the commander of the 302 Long Range Aviation Division, and Yu Liang was the commander of the 304 Medium Range Aviation Division. Guan Chang Qian was shocked when he heard this. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with some difficulty: "We still need to implement the second set of combat plans."
"Let's wait and see. If the little devil even brings out the reserve team, then implement the second set of combat plans. Execute it. If there is any problem, I will be fully responsible."
"yes."
Xue Changkong watched the manager Qian leave quickly, picked up the phone and called Zhang Xiaolin.
It had only been ten minutes since Zhang Xiaolin got off the Golden Eagle and stepped onto the ground. At this time, he was holding a glass of water and watching the ground staff inspect his landline phone. The communications soldier from the airport's temporary liaison office came to him with a walkie-talkie. He heard that it was Xue Changkong called, took the call, put the microphone to his ear and asked: "Xue Tou."
In order to fight this battle well, the General Headquarters of the Xuebing Army attached great importance to it. Because the Ganzhou Aviation Corps was equipped with golden eagles earlier than other corps, Zhang Xiaolin was seconded to the Wuyishan Air Force Base to take command even though he was already the commander of the Ganzhou Aviation Corps. Golden Eagle Combat Troop,
Xue Changkong didn't talk nonsense to him and asked straight to the point: "Xiaolin, can you still fly?"
Zhang Xiaolin simply said: "No problem."
"Okay, then you go up with reinforcements immediately. The little Japs are crazy. Now they are all adopting special attack tactics. Liu Xuefeng and the others are under too much pressure. I hope the Golden Eagle can play a role in containing the little Japs' offensive."
