Chapter two hundred and seventieth battle of wits and courage
While Liu Yuqing's ground troops were engaged in an artillery battle with Matsui Iwane's Japanese troops on the southern front, the air battle over Fujian was coming to an end. In night air battles, without radar, an operational error may accidentally damage a friendly aircraft, or even kill a friendly aircraft.
A collision between two planes occurred. Therefore, even though the two waves of Japanese fighter planes were all bombers, Wang Hai and others could not let go, so they could only play a role in driving them away.
The Japanese's second wave of bombers was shot down four and two were damaged due to pilot misoperation. They fled over the war zone. What they left to the people of Fuding and Fujian were several towns burning with fire.
.The air raid carried out on New Year's Eve, regardless of the loss of personnel and property, would have a huge impact on the morale of the student army and the people. In this regard, the student army had no effective preventive measures, which gave Wang Hai and others a powerful
You can imagine the feeling of having nowhere to go and the depression in your heart.
"Grandma, you're such a bear, you've run away again!" Some students couldn't help but cursed on the public channel. Just as they were preparing to return home in dismay, Tielin Fei's order came: "Commander Wang, please report to your brigade.
Fuel consumption!”
Wang Hai, a shrewd man, immediately realized that there was something right. After conducting an internal investigation, he replied: "Report to the commander, the average loss does not exceed one third, and it can still fly about a thousand kilometers!"
"Have you seen the sortie group taking off from Nanping?"
Wang Hai adjusted the radar radiation direction and replied excitedly: "I saw it, I saw it!" and then asked: "Commander, are you going to air attack the Japanese aircraft carrier?"
——"Sink it" is the eternal pride of the Air Force students, and it is also what the pilots yearn for the most. I don't know how many people have the extravagant hope of doing it again. Now it seems that I am expected to catch this bus!
"Contact Geng Changkong. He will command this air strike. Even if the Japanese bomber group cannot sink the 'Canglong' this time, he will be unable to participate in the air strike in the next few days!"
"yes!"
A few minutes later, Wang Hai contacted Geng Changkong. "Old Geng, I am Wang Hai. The commander asked us to follow your command. Our current position is...Old Geng, what does the coastal radar say, 'Canglong'?"
'How far is it from us?"
Geng Changkong: "The 'Canglong' is starting to run away. Lao Wang, kill the enemy plane in front of you!"
"Don't worry, the little devil can't fly against us!"
"Okay, let's catch up first!"
Compared with Mitsumasa Yoneuchi, Yamada's definition is much more interesting. Every time you learn a lesson, you gain wisdom. After the Japanese experienced a "sinking", they became much more wary of the Xuebing Army Air Force. And after having radar
, Yamada Shi also had the resources to grab a handful and run away. Therefore, as soon as he recovered the first wave of bombers, he ordered a retreat towards the waters of the Diaoyu Islands.
When the communications staff of the South China Front sent him a request for assistance telegram according to Matsui Iwane's instructions, the main force of the Soryu aircraft carrier fleet had already sailed about fifteen nautical miles and was already more than 60 kilometers away from the coast of Fuding. When the "Soryu"
When the communications officer sent the telegram to him, he was having a heated discussion with several of his subordinates about the night attack he had just invented tonight.
"This is just the beginning. When the tactics mature, we can go deeper and even directly bomb Guangzhou," he said with excitement.
"Your Excellency, a telegram from Commander Matsui!"
"Oh, let me take a look!" Yamada said, taking the telegram, glanced at it, frowned, raised his head and said, "Those guys in the Army are getting more and more helpless. They actually lost the artillery battle." He handed the telegram over.
To his chief of staff, he said: "Commander Matsui said that he would lure the Chinese artillery to fire again later and asked us to dispatch bombers for a sneak attack. Hey, do you think our navy's aviation is a god? This is the first time for everyone to conduct night operations.
It's okay to bomb towns and military fortresses with relatively large strategic targets, but what if you participate in ground troops' support operations and accidentally bomb one of your own people?"
The chief of staff read the telegram carefully and reminded him: "Sir, have you noticed the wording of this telegram? It is both a request and an order. I think-"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a loud shout. It was a communications soldier. He stood up and said to Yamada: "Your Excellency, the early warning ship in the rear reported that a large number of enemy planes were discovered!"
"What?" Yamada said, striding over, taking off the headset from his head and putting it on his head, then holding the microphone and saying: "I am Captain Yamada, please report your findings in detail!"
"Sir Yamada, we found a fighter jet cluster in the northwest direction - there are two now, and more will appear later!"
"I got it, keep monitoring!" After Yamada finished speaking, he took off his headset and said to everyone: "The Chinese people are very evil. Gentlemen, please follow the plan No. 2 of the preview!"
"Hai!"
The walkie-talkies currently used on the "Sangryu" are naturally the invention of Koizumi Toshiichiro. Compared with the ones used by the Xuebing Army, the Japanese-style walkie-talkies are much larger in size, but their performance in other aspects is almost the same. And this is why Yamamoto Five
One of the reasons why Sixteen dared to play this kind of hide-and-seek game with the Xuebing Army Air Force.
"Your Excellency, how should you reply to Commander Matsumoto?" the chief of staff asked.
"Just say that our aircraft carrier fleet is being pursued by superior enemy aircraft and cannot cooperate with them in combat!"
"Would you like to ask Mr. Yamamoto for instructions?"
"There is no need. I will explain this matter to him personally after we meet up!"
"Hai!"
Ten minutes later, the "Canglong" aircraft carrier released the thirty-one fighter jets it carried. Five minutes later, the Baiji brigade led by Wang Hai began to line up in a long snake formation and use the airborne weapons on his fighter jet.
When the radar was attacking the Japanese bombers ahead, a second lieutenant on duty at Fuding Coastal Radar Station No. 2 suddenly exclaimed: "I asked where the other two Japanese aircraft carrier fleets were hiding. They used to be docked along the coast of Taipei.
, the little devil is getting more and more cunning!"
A few minutes later, Geng Changkong was informed of this information by Tie Linfei. Tie Linfei ordered all the "tiger sharks" and white-tip dolphins to return to their original places except Wang Hai's white-tip dolphin brigade, while the Sky Fortress fleet continued the pursuit.
Then they turned to Taipei and used high-altitude bombing to destroy two military docks in Taipei.
Tielin Fei: "Without the dock, I would like to see how Yamamoto Isoroku can hide his aircraft carrier!"
Yamamoto Isoroku's single-carrier fleet harassment plan caused the Xuebing Army Air Force to suffer a lot. Tielin Fei and others were planning ways to crack this tactic all the time. But now, because of the latest discovery of Fuding Coastal No. 2 Radar Station,
They finally found a feasible way - without the dock, how could the Japanese aircraft carrier fleet get infinitely close to the island and avoid radar tracking?
