Chapter 161: Passive Air Combat

When his Zero aircraft formation flew to the front line of Suiyangdian, he did not find Chinese fighters, but only found that the situation on the battlefield was very bad, the Japanese tank units were beaten to pieces and suffered great losses, and the artillery positions seemed to have been hit by the Chinese artillery and withered.

"This ...... This...... What's going on? He felt very incomprehensible that the Japanese troops had always relied on superior artillery, armored troops, and air superiority to show their might, and if they lost these advantages, no matter how strong the infantry was, they would lose their confidence.

He began to give orders to the formation: "If the air force of the Chinese army is not found again, we will attack the ground targets, and we must regain the lost face of the Japanese Imperial Army." ”

Just as he was giving the order, he suddenly found that the 4 small rockets that were burning behind the buttocks on the opposite side flew towards the zero planes of his formation.

"Dodge, dodge, dodge enemy UFOs." Squadron Leader Ichiki had already heard that the flying machine that was burning behind China's butt was quite powerful, so he didn't dare to slack off and urgently ordered his subordinates to dodge.

The speed of these Chinese aircraft was quite fast, and the Japanese Zero planes dodged slowly, and four of them were shot down. At this moment, Squadron Leader Yimu believed it: "It is said that China's aircraft are powerful, but now I have seen it with my own eyes, and it is indeed powerful, very powerful." Our Zeros can't beat them. ”

Immediately afterward, 4 more flying machines that were on fire behind their buttocks came at them. These aircraft are a bit larger than the first one, but they seem to be slower than the first one.

"Dodge, dodge, dodge quickly, don't let these aircraft hit us." Kazuki was issuing orders again. He noticed a flying machine coming towards him, so he lowered the nose of the plane and quickly slammed it into the ground.

Kazuki piloted the Zero, relying on a good dive speed to rush to the ground. The Zero is not slow in level flight, nearly 533 kilometers in an hour, and it is of course faster when it dives. However, designer Jiro Horikoshi limited the dive speed to a range of 629.7 kilometers.

Because no matter how fast it is, the plane will disintegrate in the air, and it will not be able to withstand so much pressure and impact.

Although the air-to-surface missile also has a speed of Mach 2.5, that is, it can run 850 meters per second, compared with the Zero aircraft, it can run 175 meters per second at the fastest, which is already quite good. However, due to the different tracking and navigation design, different charges, and different reaction sensitivity, it is still quite difficult for the Blue Arrow 7 to track the Zero aircraft.

It was barely following behind, struggling to track the Zero.

Kazuki has a skillful driving technique, and it was about to hit the ground when it suddenly stopped in the air. This is also a big risk, if you don't play well, the plane can't withstand such a big impact, and you have to do a big sabotage. However, the metal structure of aluminum alloy still withstood such a huge impact.

After the completion of Ichiki's air stop, he quickly completed the turn, the nose of the plane was cocked, and then almost against the treetops, completing the big change of angle, and then level flight, the nose continued to be upturned, and then pulled upward.

The Blue Arrow-7 air-to-ground missile could not withstand such a big test, and finally plunged headlong into the ground, causing a loud explosion with a "boom" and fulfilling its historical mission.

After Ichiki drove the plane into the air, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then he felt that his body was already sweating profusely, and his whole body was cold.

He continued to fly the Zero upwards to gain a vantage point. He thought uneasily that he had been lucky enough to avoid the missile, but the other planes had not avoided it. Bless them, my Emperor of Japan, and hope that they will be as much as I have to avoid this great danger.

He hardly dared to look at this strange sky, but he still had to look, and after quietly glancing at it, his heart suddenly brightened, and he shouted loudly: "My mother, they have also successfully avoided the pursuit of UFOs and successfully escaped." This is the victory of our Imperial Japanese Army, and it is also a successful experience, and the most important thing is the blessing of the Japanese Emperor, if it were not for the Emperor who is protecting us, it would have been finished long ago. ”

If we go back now, we will have a lot of experience to write about, and from now on, the air force of our Imperial Japanese Army will be able to defeat these UFOs, and we will no longer be afraid of the Chinese air force.

Kazuki is arrogant and complacent, he does not know that this is the helpless situation of the Chinese Air Force, which is an air target attacked with air-to-ground missiles.

After Xu Da instructed the remaining three J-20 fighters to use air-to-ground missiles Blue Arrow 7 to attack the Japanese Zero plane, he also felt a "chuckle" in his heart.

So what to do? There is no problem in retreating, then you can only watch the Zero aircraft in the air, and the Type 97 Japanese medium tanks on the ground, they will be sprinkling on the ground, and they will bully the Chinese infantry as much as they want.

No way! We must not let them run rampant and run amok, and we must use all our power to consume them and strike them down.

Xu Da gave an order to the rest of the fighters: "Don't retreat for the time being, lure the Japanese Zero planes, and tell them to follow us in circles." ”

Xu Da finished the order and took the lead in piloting the J-20 fighter and approaching the Japanese Zero fighter.

Kazuki was piloting the Zero and suddenly saw with the naked eye that about 5 kilometers away, there were 4 planes flying towards them.

"This ...... This...... This...... What kind of strange plane is this? Kazuki had never seen an aircraft like this before, and he couldn't help but feel a little amazed. First of all, the Chinese fighter he saw seemed to have no wings, or rather, the oblique wings and body were glued together, like a duck's foot.

Then the edges and corners of the plane are very small, almost no edges and corners, and there is a big person, gray color, no propellers, there seems to be a little fire behind the tail, and the wide angle of view of the cockpit, which greatly shocked him:

"This is truly the world's greatest masterpiece, amazing, great, even greater than our Jiro Horikoshi. It's a pity that our Zero is no better than not knowing it, and it's more frightening. It's not as good as others—"

But Squadron Leader Ichiki has a heart that does not admit defeat, although our Zero fighters are not comparable to others on the surface, but if we shoot them down, then what a great battle achievement we can make for the Great Japanese Empire! Even if you shoot down one, you can't shoot it down, and you can damage one!

Squadron Leader Kazuki is inspired by the hope of victory, and is struck by an ambition that desperately needs to fight. He decisively gave the order: "The time has come for us to attack the Chinese fighters and to make meritorious contributions to the Great Japanese Empire." ”

He led 8 Zeros and rushed towards the Chinese J-20 fighters.

The rest of the Zero fighters, under his leadership, also increased the throttle and rushed towards the Chinese fighters.

The Chinese fighter quickly made a turn and then retreated to the rear. Yimu was so happy that he shouted: "Yo Xi, Yo Xi, the Chinese fighters have run away, they are afraid of us." Catch up, hit them hard, knock them down from the sky, and see what else they can do? ”

The eight Zero planes of the Japanese army flew even more frantically towards the Chinese fighters, they increased the throttle, used the top speed, and pursued the Chinese fighters with all their might.

But chasing after him, Kazuki seems to have found a problem again. Why can't these fighters keep up, it looks like it's a 4-kilometer distance, and after chasing for a long time, it's still 4 kilometers, basically leveling the distance, and no matter how much you chase it, you can't catch up.

Ichiki didn't know that his Zero aircraft had a speed of 533 kilometers per hour, while the level flight speed of the J-20 fighter could reach 3,062.7 kilometers at the fastest, nearly six times faster than the Zero aircraft.

Xu Da's operational intention was to lure Ichiki's Zero plane out of the battlefield as soon as possible, so as to gain time for our tactical attack.

Kazuki didn't know, he thought that the maximum speed of the Chinese fighter would not exceed that of the Japanese Zero plane, and if he wanted to catch up, he would definitely be able to catch up with the Chinese fighter, and he was still desperately refueling and cheering for other Japanese planes: "Hurry, hurry, if you chase again, you will catch up with the Chinese fighters." As long as they catch up with the Chinese fighters, they will fight hard, with their cannons—"

After chasing for nearly 20 minutes, Yimu saw that he really couldn't catch up, so he figured out what to do, and he said loudly: "We are on the hands of Chinese fighters, and they are going to transfer us away so as to prevent us from attacking China's army." ”

He was still a little reluctant, so he fired a point at the J-20 fighter with a 20mm cannon.

......More than a dozen shells were fired out.

The muzzle of these Type 99 20 mm cannons, the initial velocity of the shells is not high, the trajectory is curved, and the firing range is actually lower than that of the American 0.50-inch machine guns. The shell made a curve and fell towards the ground.

Kazuki didn't give up, he added the throttle again, and looked closer to the J-20 fighter, and another string of shells went out. Still not fighting, still far from the Chinese fighters!

The more Ichiki thought about it, the more angry he became, these hateful machine gun shells could hit 2,000 meters at most, and under the action of the earth's gravity, a curve was drawn, which was even more inaccurate. The effective range is within 1000 meters.

As soon as Ichiki was in a hurry, he fired at the Chinese fighter planes with a "tom tom...... and if he fired again, there would be no more, and all his 60 shells had been fired.

At this moment, Ichiki has no curse, and the other fighters are similar to him, and basically all the shells are gone.
