In half an hour of fighting, Inamoto shot down at least four fighter planes of Lu Quanbin's group, and almost hit Lu Quanbin's own Baiji. Lu Quanbin noticed him in the middle of the battle, and then flew the plane himself. He suppressed him, but instead of suppressing him, he almost lost his life. This naturally made him deeply impressed by Inamoto Shotai. When friendly reinforcements came up, Lu Quanbin immediately reminded everyone: "Brothers, pay attention. It’s 215, zero battle numbered 215, everyone must be careful.”
Nakamura Koichiro and Inamoto Shotai. While Nakamura Koichiro ensured that he had good firepower output, he also took into account the overall situation. Under his call, the Japanese army relied on their numerical superiority in fighter planes and launched successive suicide attempts that only focused on the head and body. This type of attack was actually not worth the gain, given that the speed of Japanese aircraft was generally much inferior to that of the Whiteback. However, because there were only a few Chinese pilots who were able to take both attack and defense half-heartedly, they were initially taken advantage of by the Japanese. , It is true that the Japanese army took advantage. When it comes to the cost of fighter aircraft, the most advanced new zero-fighter of the Japanese army is only half of that of the Baiji. And if the value of the pilots is also included, the Japanese army has an absolute majority of newcomers, and many Japanese soldiers Even just graduated from the aviation school; the situation is exactly the opposite in the Lu Quanbin Brigade. There is only one front-line pilot who has just been assigned from the aviation school. The others have rich combat experience. When it is time to fight, one has rich combat experience. The cost of cultivating pilots with actual combat experience is not much cheaper than manufacturing an aircraft, and the difficulty and time span are even more different. Therefore, as far as the Japanese army is concerned, it is not even possible to exchange a Zero Combat and a new recruit for one. If you have a white-finned dolphin and an old bird, even if you exchange it for two or three times the price, you will still make a lot of money.
After the victory in the first battle, the Japanese front-line commanders were greatly encouraged. The temporary supreme commander of the Japanese battlefield was Hoshi Honda, commander of the Honda Air Wing of the 3rd Flying Division. Honda Kei ordered Nakamura Akiichiro to continue commanding, while calling on other departments to report to Nakamura. The officers and soldiers of the brigade learned, mobilized them to spread a wide net, and launched an attack on the China Air Force in a relatively dense formation.
Xue Changkong had already occupied a position with a good view at this time. He saw the second half of Lu Quanbin's brigade being besieged by the Japanese army, and immediately recognized the characteristics and sharpness of the Japanese army's tactics. Originally, he was He wanted to let the commanders of each unit perform freely, but now, after realizing that if this cluster collision continues, the speed and performance advantages of our own fighters will not be brought into play, but will give the little devils the opportunity to implement special attack tactics, so he Through Huomai, he shouted to all the soldiers in the army, asking them not to rush to annihilate the enemy, but to spread out their formation first and gain as wide a space for themselves as possible. Lu Quanbin's warning came into his eyes, and he looked for it. Soon, a particularly active Zero Fighter was discovered among hundreds of enemy planes. "Lu Quanbin, heading northeast, is it him who has super maneuverability?" He asked loudly, and got Lu Quanbin's answer. Answering in the affirmative, he looked intently and saw the number "215" on the tail of the Zero Fighter. At this time, Inamoto Masayasu was piloting the plane to easily avoid an air-to-air missile, and then hit one at close range. The Baiji dolphin beat the Baiji dolphin into the air and caught fire. Seeing this scene, Xue Changkong couldn't help but his blood rushed to his brain and shouted: "Chen Chong, where is Chen Chong?"
As soon as Xue Changkong saw the more difficult enemy planes, he thought of Chen Chong. For Chen Chong, this was definitely something to be proud of. Chen Chong immediately shouted "Here", then he said a few words of concern to his brothers, and then called his wingmen to follow Xue Changkong's guidance. The direction rushed over,
When Xue Changkong called Chen Chong, Xu Kongzhan happened to be about ten kilometers southwest of Inamoto Shotai. Inamoto Shotai used his superb driving skills to avoid the pursuit of air-to-air missiles and shot down a Baiji. This gave the Japanese Air Force With great confidence, some people shouted Inamoto's nickname excitedly: "Drunken Tiger, Drunken Tiger."
Kei Honda heard the cries of his subordinates, looked around, and saw the heroic figure of "215". He grinned and secretly said: "General Tsukahara really made a mistake this time. He actually gave away an aviation elite like Inamoto. Perhaps this is the blessing of Amaterasu, knowing that we are going to have a life-and-death battle with the China people. Well, with warriors like Inamoto here, the imperial army will win this battle." Thinking like this, he shouted: "Everyone. Sir, let the Chinese see that our Imperial Japanese Air Force has more than just one Drunken Tiger, kill him."
The top battlefield commanders of both China and Japan, and even the officers and soldiers of both sides, paid close attention to Inamoto Shotai. However, Inamoto Shotai himself did not realize that if someone sat next to Inamoto Shotai at this time, he would find that he was in a mysterious state. His face was flushed, and he breathed heavily from his mouth and nose from time to time, as if he was drunk, but his eyes were crystal clear, and his limbs seemed particularly steady. There were many small movements on his hands, and in his case With continuous movements, 215 seemed to be endowed with a soul. It often made adjustments in a state where there was no time to fire. Then, the shells flew past its fuselage, missing by just a hair.
Xu Kongzhan had a particularly keen sense of smell on the battlefield. When 215 became the center of attention on the battlefield, he immediately noticed it. He took the time to observe 215 while avoiding the enemy aircraft's attack, and then suddenly flew the plane out of the original battle circle and quickly headed southeast of 215. pass by,
When Xu Kongji piloted the plane to the southeast of Inamoto Shotai, Inamoto Shotai was chasing a Golden Eagle as if there was no one around. Zero Fighter's speed was much worse than that of the Golden Eagle. Ordinarily, as long as the Golden Eagle pilot kept flying in a straight line , then it is impossible for Zero War to catch up, but now that the sky is full of fighter planes, it is almost impossible for the Golden Eagle to maintain a straight and high-speed flight for a certain period of time, so this Golden Eagle is still chased by Shotai Inamoto. Up there, and no matter how hard the pilot tried, he couldn't get out of the locked state.
Xu Kongzhan didn't observe 215 for long, but he discovered some of Inamoto Shotai's operational characteristics with his keen insight. That is, once Inamoto sets his sights on a target, he will pursue it relentlessly, even if he is attacked midway. Jamming has to shoot down the intruding enemy aircraft first, and will not give up the original target.
This is actually a trait that all excellent pilots have, that is, they will show special concentration in combat. In layman's terms, it is the habit of sticking to the same goal. What makes Inamoto Masatai and Xu Kongzhan different from others is that Inamoto Ben Zhengtai is not afraid of interference and has the ability to fight back against the intruder, while Xu Kongzhan is able to maintain a keen awareness of the surrounding environment and maintain enough patience to wait for the best opportunity to launch.
"01045, just run away, don't think about fighting back," Xu Kongzhan flew the plane close to 215 while giving a move to the golden eagle that was bitten by 215.
The pilot of 01045 faithfully followed Xu Kongzhan's instructions. Finally, he caught an opportunity, weaved his way through several fighter planes, and fled towards the airspace outside the battlefield.
