Chapter 209 Yichang Defensive Battle (5)
Nearly two squadrons of bombers, the elite of the aviation forces, young lives, immature faces, and a blink of an eye, all disappeared before their eyes. The consequences that followed were the shattering of countless families, the shattering of the myth of the invincibility of the Imperial Army Aviation, and the disappearance of two squadrons in military strength.
However, the military mentality cultivated over the years and the spirit of not admitting defeat made the Komura Kazuo roar like a bull with a raging hair. "The Japanese air force is not combatable, the 96-1 First Squadron and the Second Squadron, attacking these Chinese soldiers with missiles. Duck give-"
The 96-1 fighter is not slow, it can reach up to 432 kilometers per hour at the fastest, it is armed with two 7.7mm machine guns, and it can carry two 50-kilogram bombs.
The eyes of the pilots of the 96-1 fighters are red, just like the gamblers who are anxious to lose, as long as people lose their eyes, their brains will lose their minds. One by one, they pounced from the sky, eager to tear these Chinese soldiers apart to avenge their bomber brothers.
5000 meters, 4000 meters, 3000 meters, again to the distance of the missile launch.
At this time, the missile launcher had already been loaded with missiles, and the missiles were launched from the missile vehicle one by one with red flames. "Whoosh-" The ground shot straight into the blue sky.
The infantry's shoulder-fired missiles were more convenient to reload, and they quickly put the portable anti-aircraft missiles on their shoulders and aimed them at the 96-1 fighters flying down from the sky.
The powerful vehicle-mounted Hongying-5C missile is extremely powerful, and as long as it is targeted, it basically does not run. The first batch of 4 missiles shot down 4 96-1 fighters, and the second batch of 4 missiles hit 4 more 96-1 fighters.
8 shots and 8 hits, the effect is even better than the first launch.
The Japanese army's 96-1 fighters are one after the other, and they are moving forward bravely, which is really red in the ass - doom. The front ones were hit, and the ones behind continued to rush forward, and once they received the order, they had to go all out, which was the tactical principle of the Japanese army.
There are no missiles left in the missile trucks, but the infantry in camouflage uniforms still have shoulder-fired missiles. Just as the Type 96 fighters were crashing down one after another, missiles flew towards them.
"Boom-" "Boom-" "Boom-" "Boom-" continuous explosions, one after another 96-1 fighters exploded in the air.
At a critical time, Kazuo Komura still showed his smart and wise brain, and suddenly turned around, he couldn't just fight like this, instead of fighting like this, there was no one left, and there was no value. He suddenly ordered: "Stop attacking the enemy's missile vehicles and missile troops, our planes have mobility, take a detour, and attack the Chinese infantry positions on all sides." β
The rest of the Japanese air force also realized that if they attacked China's missile vehicles and missile troops in this way, it would be and flying into the pit -- looking for death (), and instead of this, it was better to hide from them far away and specifically attack the Chinese infantry positions.
So these 96-1 fighters and the remaining Type 99 bombers turned around and dived, strafed and dropped bombs from all angles towards the Chinese infantry positions.
This trick was much smarter, the Chinese positions were attacked by the Japanese air force in many places, and there were machine gun fire everywhere, and the explosion of bombs falling to the ground.
No matter how fast the wheels of the missile vehicles are, and no matter how fast the two legs of the missile crews are, they cannot be faster than the Japanese planes. At this moment, the remaining Japanese planes can be regarded as having exerted their residual heat.
Let's talk about the two Zero aircraft squadrons led by Sang Ming Zhuonan PK 4 J-20 fighters in China. Xu Da also adopted the original tactic, that is, to take advantage of the advantage of the Thunderbolt-8 air-to-air missile to strike at the enemy at a distance of 10 to 15 kilometers, thus shooting down 16 enemy Zero fighters.
Next, with 4 against 8, you can only engage in aerial combat.
After a while, 4 J-20 fighters shot down 4 more Zero fighters.
Sang Ming Zhuonan saw that this battle could not be fought anymore, and if it continued to be fought, there would be no one to report it. I have already gained the experience of fighting the Chinese Air Force, and I cannot let these experiences be lost, but I must treat these experiences as if they were a dough head, and let them continue to ferment and increase, in the hope that in the later battles, we can defeat the powerful Southern Expeditionary Air Force.
Look at the small village and a man's plane formation, good guy, just now a huge flight formation, a full 48 planes, almost occupying half of the sky, only 8 lonely planes remained.
Fortunately, the results of the battle are not bad, the entire Chinese army's position, everywhere is full of fire, wolf smoke everywhere, and the black smoke of the regiments gathers together, forming a huge black curtain, shrouding the entire Chinese position, it seems that the achievements are remarkable!
Compared with the loss of 60 aircraft in its own aircraft formation, is it a little bigger?
As soon as he thought of this, Sang Ming Zhuonan's heart was like a dead fly stuffed into his heart, and he couldn't breathe.
Sang Ming Zhuonan finally gave the order to return: "All the fighters are back, rest assured, we will come back again." Little Southern Expeditionary Army, you waitβ"
Before leaving, he let out a cruel word.
Seeing the Japanese air formation fly away, Han Xing's heart breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that when the Japanese air formation first came, it looked like it was so imposing, Han Xing's heart was really nervous. After all, Xu Da's air force only has 4 fighters, and if Xu Da's air force can't resist the Japanese air force, the infantry on the position will be miserable.
Fortunately, after a hard battle, Xu Da's fighter formation and ground air defense units finally defeated the enemy's air formation, and achieved the brilliant result of destroying 60 fighters.
We also suffered great losses on our positions, and many heavy machine-gun positions, mortar positions, and general infantry positions were attacked by the Japanese army, and many officers and men were killed and many equipment were damaged. But compared to the absence of air defense, this is already a minimum loss.
The enemy's air forces have run out of tricks, and it's time for us to make a move.
In the distance, four Y-8 transport planes slowly flew towards the defense area in Yichang. Its maximum level flight speed can reach 662 km/h, its cruising speed is 550 km/h, the minimum level flight speed is 248 km/h, and the maximum load capacity is 20 tons.
Originally, it was a transport aircraft, but Han Xing was in charge of the design and changed it to a bomber. Tufa got on the horse, that is, a bomb throwing assembly line was placed in the cargo hold. Why is the minimum level flight speed of the Y-8 transport aircraft important, because at this speed it is necessary to drop aerial bombs on the enemy's positions.
That is to say, the Y-8 transport plane can fly 68 meters per second at its slowest speed, and as long as the bombardier drops bombs continuously at the speed of an aerial bomb in one second, a line will be passed, and a no-man's land of about 70 meters will be created.
The Y-8 transport plane was waiting quietly at the base of Nanyang Airport, and the air battle could not be over, and it could not come. Because as soon as you came, you tied up the J-20 fighters, do they want to fight in the air, or do they want to protect you? The Japanese aviation was routed, and the Y-8-transport plane, which had been waiting for a long time, arrived.
The beautiful sky is colorful, sometimes faint, sometimes blue, it is so endlessly changing, leaving us with infinite reverie.
The sky is like an angel, it makes us feel good, the sky is beautiful, indescribably beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy. The Air Force fighters love the sky because of its purity, and on its azure surface, the speckled white clouds seem to be even more beautiful, like lilies, so white.
Air Force fighters like the sky, because of its industriousness, it makes people feel comfortable, it makes all things thrive, it is the hero of all things in the world, it is always selfless, silently dedicating everything to itself.
It was only because of the war that the sky was polluted by thick smoke that the sky became no longer beautiful, white as ever, and as pure as jade. If we want the sky to become beautiful again, we can only use war to eliminate war, and drive all these evil Japanese planes out of China, so that they will never have the opportunity to pollute the sky again!
This time, Zhang Fei led the Y-8 transport aircraft formation to bomb the enemy's position. Xu Da, Zhang Fei, and Li Yu are all all-round pilots, J-20 fighters, Y-8-transport aircraft, Z-8-helicopters, which type of model can also be piloted.
This is a time of war, when the book is used, there is less hatred, and the art is not oppressive, only if you know more, can you fight the enemy more effectively.
The 13th Division of the Y-8 transport plane, which rushed to Yichang Tanaka Shizuichi, was a first-class division, and its artillery wing, engineer wing, cavalry wing, baggage wing, and infantry wing were all displayed on the LCD display.
Its location, the formation, the simple fortifications, and even the images of the soldiers were all displayed on the display under the back-and-forth scanning, concentration, analysis, and filtering of the advanced instruments on the Y-8 transport plane.
The A Division, also known as the Horse Pulling Division, has jurisdiction over 2 brigades (2 infantry wings per brigade), 1 wing of engineers, 1 cavalry, 1 artillery and 1 brigade of baggage, a total of 8 wings, plus 28,200 non-combatants from the regimental headquarters of the first division and the regimental headquarters of two brigades.
If a strong army division does not have air cover, it is like a man wearing strong armor without a steel hat, and this exposes his head. What's the use of the armor on your body, no matter how thick it is?
The Japanese army claimed to have a powerful air force, so it always attacked others by air, and the Japanese army divisions did not have to fear that they would be attacked by the Chinese air force. Because of the Chinese Air Force, the Japanese army believed that it had long been defeated by the Japanese Air Force.
Therefore, the formidable 13th Division has not considered whether to establish an army air defense force at all.
That is, just now, Major General Takao Sangming of the 3rd Flying Regiment led a mixed air formation of 72 planes, which showed the great power of the Japanese air force, and a large area of their black pressure almost occupied the entire air space of Yichang City.
