Nakano of the 3rd Flying Regiment scolded the Squadron Leader of Zero Wood: "Yaga! Your incompetence, great incompetence, has given us the Japanese air force a complete loss of face, a great loss of face. Lost 7 valuable Zeros of the latest type, and did not shoot down a single Chinese fighter. This...... This...... Tell me how to explain to the commander of the corps, Sonobe and Ichiro! We, the Aviation, cannot accept this reality......"

Squadron Leader Lingmu stood respectfully with his hands down, and when Nakano finished losing his temper, Lingmu said cautiously: "The main thing is that the Chinese Air Force has a kind of flying machine that is burning in the back, which is quite fast and powerful. Are we really too hard to deal with? ”

"Yaga!" Nakano lost his temper again, "You're an expert in air combat, do you still need me to teach you how to deal with these flying machines?" Hide when you should dodge, run when you should run, how can you make them hit. ”

"But they're too fast," Zerowood had a chance to say at this time, "These planes are traveling at about 900 meters per second, while our planes are only about 100 meters per second, and they seem to have eyes, and they will turn around and chase after us." At the speed of our current Zero, we really can't outrun them! ”

These words of Lingmu attracted Nakano's attention, and he thought of the air battle of Xuzhou in the Battle of Wuhan, the Battle of Nanchang, the Battle of Suizao, and the Battle of Changsha, the Chinese Air Force used similar weapons, all of which made the Japanese air force suffer. However, Nakano was drunk and refused to admit half a pot of wine, and he still loudly reprimanded Zerowood and said:

"Now, what our Japanese air force needs most is the brilliant achievements of the Zero aircraft, what we want is to improve our morale, and what we want is to defeat the victory of the Chinese air force. But you didn't complete any of these plans. You should go to the Judge Advocate General's Office yourself and wait for the Judge Advocate General's Office's disposition, right? ”

Lingmu knew that when he arrived at the military justice department, there was no good fruit to eat, and he would be punished with severe punishment and be shot.

At this time, a staff officer sent Nakano an updated report, and made a verbal request: "Your Excellency, there are a large number of Chinese planes at Nanyang Airport. The commander of the corps, the commander of the Sonobu, ordered us to go into battle as soon as possible and defeat the Chinese air force. ”

Nakano knew that after Okamura Ninji stepped down, the newly appointed corps commander Kazuichiro Sonobe was the three new officers who took office, and he was looking forward to the best performance of each department. So, he nodded and said to his adjutant: "Yo Xi, Yo Xi, the long-awaited fighter plane is finally here, and I will personally lead the team, to give the Chinese Air Force a blow and crush their Air Force." ”

Lingmu also saw that the opportunity came, even if he died on the battlefield, it was better than sending it to the military justice department. If you die in battle, you are treated as a hero, and there is a lot of pension. If he is sent to the Judge Advocate General's Office, he will not ruin his reputation and will not benefit him financially.

Squadron Leader Lingmu stood upright and said loudly to Nakano: "Your Excellency Report, I am willing to make meritorious service for my crimes, kill a horse pistol at Nanyang Airport, and be sure to come back with a complete victory." If I don't win this time, I'm willing to die to apologize. ”

Nakano said that he would personally lead the team on the expedition, but he also heard what Zero Wood said just now, and he was also afraid of running into a Chinese unidentified aerial vehicle. If Zero Kiide wins, the credit will still be his own, and if he loses, the blame will be entirely on him.

Thinking of this, Nakano said to Zerowood, "Lieutenant Zerowood, for the sake of our many years of working together, I'll give you another chance." Didn't you lose 7 Zeros, and I'll give you 7 more. You must eliminate the Chinese Air Force at Nanyang Airport, if you don't take advantage of this opportunity, you will never have a chance again. ”

Lieutenant Zeroki gave Nakano a standard military salute and said loudly, "Hayi! Harbish! Thank you, Your Excellency, Nakano, for giving me this opportunity. I have made up my mind to die to defeat the Chinese Air Force! ”

Squadron Leader Zero Wood once again led a squadron of Zero planes, and rushed to Nanyang Airport again with murderous spirits.

Zerowood likes the blue sky like ice crystals, transfiguring in time. The fine wind blows the clouds in the western sky, precipitates rainbow-like dreams, and composes a distant song that haunts his heart.

The blue sky is pillow with white clouds, lying down listening to the sound of the pine forest tip, dreaming of a sunny day.

The love and yearning for the blue sky has been there since childhood, just like innate, always feeling that the blue sky is calling you and inviting you to the world of the sky. It is also from the beginning of my memory that I am accustomed to looking up at the sky, and I always feel that there is something mysterious in the sky that attracts me and touches my soul.

It wasn't until I grew up that I realized that it was the vastness of the sky that had always pulled me, and the boundless sky purified everything with its openness and purity, soothing my sorrows and sorrows. Every time you fly a plane in the sky, you feel like you're flying, and you can swim freely and carefree, forgetting all your worries.

I like that kind of tranquility, I like that kind of immaculateness, and I like the vastness of the blue sky even more.

As soon as a soldier takes a plane into the sky, it is a harbinger of carnage and disaster. Who is right and who is wrong, who is right and who is wrong, I am always vague, unclear, and unclear.

When there were still 5 kilometers away from Nanyang Airport, 8 Chinese fighters were suddenly spotted in front. "Yo Xi, Yo Xi," Ling Mu shouted excitedly, finally seeing the Chinese fighter plane, which was enough to stimulate his excitement. When he piloted the 96-1 fighter, three Chinese fighters had already entered the account.

Now that I'm flying the latest Zero, I'm going to have a better performance.

"Climb high, climb high," Zero Wood ordered loudly, in air combat, the plane can only gain the right to dive and achieve high speed if it occupies the altitude. Just like on the ground battlefield, whoever occupies the commanding heights occupies the initiative.

Zhang Yimin also saw 12 Zero planes. He was also issuing the same order: "Climb high, climb high, climb high and prepare to fight." ”

Both planes were whining and sprinting their full throttle, struggling to climb into the sky.

In the upward climb, the Yi-15 and Yi-16 fighters showed obvious shortcomings. Because of the Iraqi aircraft, the front of the fuselage of the aircraft is covered with aluminum, and the rest of the fuselage is covered with cloth. To put it bluntly, the main material inside is wood. One of the biggest drawbacks of the wooden structure is that if it is too fast, it will disintegrate in the air.

The Yi-15 fighter can climb up to 7,250 meters, while the Yi-16 fighter can climb up to 10,700 meters

Compared with the wooden structure, the aluminum alloy is lighter and the structure is stronger, which is conducive to the increase of speed and more resistant to high-speed impact.

The Zero can climb up to 10,000 meters, and it takes 9 minutes and 30 seconds to climb to an altitude of 3,000 meters (9,840 feet).

The I-15 and I-16 were in a high climb with the Zero, and it was clear that the Zero had the upper hand, much faster than the I-15 and I-16.

Zhang Yimin saw that he couldn't climb the Zero plane, so he made a bold decision: "The whole team should pay attention and attack the Zero plane——"

This decision was made wrong, because attacking enemy troops requires a certain altitude to obtain sufficient dive speed at the height. Attacking enemy planes, the inclination is low, and it seems that the speed has gone up, but it is in a more disadvantageous position.

Even if you attack the enemy, it seems that the speed is obviously insufficient. The maximum speed of the I-15 fighter is 350 km/h, the maximum speed of the I-16 fighter is 470 km/h, and the maximum speed of the Zero is 533.4 km/h.

Having gained enough altitude, the squadron occupied the superiority at high altitude, and then he shouted: "Attack the Chinese Air Force." ”

Zero planes roared and swooped down from the sky. When diving, the speed is significantly increased, because the speed of the dive is the speed of level flight plus the weight of the fuselage.

One after another, the Zero planes aimed at China's Yi-15 and Yi-16 fighters, and they pounced like wolves.

Zhang Yimin didn't see it well, and shouted loudly: "Two in a group, fight separately, avoid the enemy's attack, look for opportunities, and strike the enemy." ”

The Zero aircraft is equipped with a new 20-mm gun, which can shoot at 1,500 meters, while the effective range of heavy machine gun fire is within 1,000 meters.

The Zero aircraft occupied the height again, and occupied the time to give priority to attacking the Chinese fighters, and they were able to adjust the nose of the aircraft, put the Chinese fighters on the scope, and calmly fire at the Chinese fighters.

"Tom tom tom ......" a string of firelight flew. One Il-15 and one Il-16 fighter jets were shot. The 20-mm shell pierced the fuselage of the wooden plane, and after the explosion, there was another fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind to burn more and more, and it seemed that the two Chinese planes were hopeless.

The two planes shook for a while, then slowly crashed towards the ground.

In hand-to-hand combat, Chinese fighters also have the upper hand. The fighters of both sides wanted to occupy the rear of the enemy, that is, to bite the enemy's tail with their own nose. But this is wishful thinking, and in the end it depends on whose plane turns fast and has high speed.

It turned out that during the air battle, the Yi-15 and Yi-16 fighters joined forces to fight the Japanese 96-1 fighters. First of all, the Yi-15 fighter and the 96-1 fight, don't look at the Yi-15 fighter is a little slow, but the turn is fast, the flexibility is strong, and it can quickly get rid of the pursuit of the enemy plane.

When the two planes were fighting, Yi 16 took advantage of his speed and pounced quickly, and hit 96-1 with a fierce blow.

It's not easy to do now, the speed difference between the Yi-15 fighter and the Zero aircraft is too much, chasing it, can't catch up with it, escape, can't run away from it, if you turn around, the Zero aircraft seems to be much more flexible than the Yi-15.

This is troublesome, if the Yi-16 fighter wants to help, it can't help it, because its speed is also much worse than that of the Zero aircraft.

This formed a one-sided style of play, and the Japanese Zero planes chased after the butts of the Yi-15 fighters, and the closer they got closer. The Yi-15 fighter adopted a quick change of tactics in order to escape the pursuit of the Zero aircraft, and the Zero aircraft was also extremely flexible and could not get rid of it.

Soon, two more I-15 fighters were shot down by the Zero aircraft pursuing behind.
