Chapter 197: The Beginning of the War 6

The fighters of the two sides are rapidly approaching, and this is a face-to-face contest between China's most advanced fighters under the guidance of their own satellite navigation and early warning planes and the most advanced export-oriented fighters of the United States under the advanced early warning planes and satellite navigation planes of the United States. The speed of the fighter plane is very fast, in the blink of an eye, it has come to the front of the eye, and even the fuselage of each other can be seen clearly, the plane is light and fast, moving like lightning, cunning like a hare...... Soon the emblems on each other's fuselages were already visible.

Lin * saw a fighter with a blue star, while the other party looked at a fighter with three red stars, each star was painted, it means that an opponent was shot down, and they both gasped in unison, good guy, it turns out that it is not simple! Although Meng Haibo's opponent was not painted with a red star, he should not be underestimated, just like he himself did not shoot down an enemy plane as a long plane, and he is not also one of the best pilots of Hainan Airlines. The over-the-horizon attack has passed, and the close-range attack has not worked, so it has to be close combat. Pilots cherish their fighters as much as they cherish their bodies and even their lives, and they are all like knights in the Middle Ages, very arrogant, treating aerial duels as a gentleman's duel, and there is no room for the slightest stain. At this time, the competition between the two sides has become a masterpiece of art, and flying is regarded as art, and it is always necessary to cut off the other party cleanly without the slightest injury, and even if it is damaged, it must be very slight. Meng Haibo is so, his opponent is the same, so is Lin*'s opponent, and so is his performance; But obviously, he has a distinct Lee ancestry.

The Li family is a family that does not pay attention to rules and etiquette, he doesn't care what people say, as long as he doesn't break the law, as long as he can survive in the end, he never cares about any morality or rules, nor does he talk about any gentlemanly demeanor and ladylike demeanor...... Lin * is the descendant of the Li family, with the rebellious consciousness of his father and mother, as well as his brothers and sisters, in his bones, and when he sees an opportunity, even if it is a 30% chance of success, he cuts the fighter to the opponent fiercely, and in less than a second of close contact, he rows the opponent's flank to the land. The other party obviously did not expect him to be so unreasonable and so desperate, this situation is a little careless is the collision of two fighters or even the simultaneous explosion of the airspace, no one can remain calm, although the knight requires absolute calm and grace, but when he is absolutely insulted, especially when he is suddenly threatened with his life, he will still lose his normality, out of the instinct of escape, he is eager to get rid of the opponent's close entanglement; However, the plane that had lost its flanks was obviously out of balance, its performance was obviously impaired, and the stalemate between the two sides immediately changed; after one missile was launched, the second missile was launched from another angle without any need to adjust its position. At about the same time that the first missile hit, the second missile collided again, causing the airspace of the plane to explode, and the powerful air flow pushed the small J-16 fighter to the side, so that he could hardly control his fighter plane and kept rolling in the air...... Killed three thousand, self-damage eight hundred, Lin * cut off the opponent's flank, but also caused a lot of damage to itself, although it was not fatal damage, but after launching two missiles The plane was unstable, and encountered the impact of a strong air current, so that this guy suffered the consequences of not following the rules, several consecutive air rolls, as if he was juggling in the air, and finally stabilized, and the cold sweat has come out! Fortunately, the military aircraft are relatively sturdy and can be used as usual, and after adjusting the state, they will accelerate to the long plane.

Just when Lin * did not pay attention to the rules and sent the opponent directly into heaven, Meng Haibo also divided the winner and loser, J-16 was more advanced than the opponent's fighter, coupled with his rich experience, slowly forced the opponent into a dead corner, two missiles in a row, cleanly sent the opponent down the blue sky, and soon a white parachute bag appeared in the air! Just after the two solved the opponent, Luo Min, who had a relative advantage in manpower, also led 5 planes to converge with the two, just in time to see the shot of the white parachute slowly sliding, except for one of the 6 fighters, the rest were intact, and the opponent had two of them shot down, and the rest were injured and fled in a hurry (injured first, otherwise they couldn't escape). So the eight fighters chased in the direction of the bomber group, the escort mission was not completely over, and the friendly planes were still waiting for them to rendezvous! At this time, it was seen that the difference between the fighters was coming, the two damaged fighters obviously could not keep up with the rest of the fighters, especially the other fighter that was more seriously damaged, Meng Haibo immediately decided to have Lin * escort the other fighter back, and the rest of the planes to carry out the remaining escort missions.

Although the battle was already very tense, the comrades-in-arms still came to greet the returning comrades! In air combat, it is better to be able to bring back the plane intact, and if you can't bring the plane back intact, then even if you bring back the injured fighter, it is still welcomed by everyone; And if the plane can't be brought back, then as long as the person comes back, it will still be welcomed by everyone. For a flight commander, the aircraft is very important, but more importantly, those pilots, the aircraft is gone, it can be replenished, but the pilots are gone, it is more difficult to replenish, and it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to train an excellent pilot! The left-behind personnel of the 3rd Flying Regiment warmly welcomed the two comrades-in-arms who did not complete the mission and listened to their combat experiences! Although the pilots of the other side are also very good, they can not withstand the simultaneous attack of the superior number of aircraft, and they were caught off guard as soon as they came up, but the opponent is not easy to provoke, and two of the enemy planes carried out a concentrated attack, and the result was that Captain Huang Shanhe and Captain Lin * returned to the base ahead of schedule!

Lin * is now an excellent pilot of the Second Division of the HNA Army, even in the entire Air Force, he is also one of the pilots who shoot down the most enemy planes, and can shoot down enemy planes in almost every battle, which is a very remarkable record. But he remembered his father's admonition, "The best are easy to break", for example, now, he is already in trouble, his fighter plane has been damaged, although these minor damage is easy to repair, but it will take time; If possible, pilots generally do not easily change fighters, they treat fighters like knights treat horses, they have a deep affection, although they are mechanical dead things, but also have an unusual sense of intimacy and familiarity!

Not long after Lin * They returned to the base, the rest of the fighters of the Third Flying Regiment also returned, none of them were damaged, and the escort mission was completed completely, it is said that the other two enemy planes did not take advantage of the slightest advantage, and just got out of the entanglement between him and the regiment commander, they encountered the head-on interception of the two fighters led by Major Fang Wei, and they never approached the bomber formation at all, and the two sides reached the visual distance from the over-the-horizon distance, so that they were close to each other, and as a result, the superior Fang Wei sent the other party down the blue sky, The enemy planes that were entanglement with Captain Wang Zaili saw that the situation was not good, so they hurriedly wasted their missiles and fled in a hurry during the evasion time of the Chinese planes, so that out of the eight enemy planes, 5 were shot down, and only one enemy plane escaped intact; Since then, Meng Haibo and his team have never encountered interception, and although ground-based anti-aircraft missiles have flown past them from time to time, they have never posed a lethal threat. Chinese pilots do not pay attention to Philippine anti-aircraft missiles, on the one hand, because their fighters are quite advanced and fly at relatively high altitudes, and on the other hand, according to intelligence, most of the Philippine anti-aircraft missile positions have been destroyed in the previous round of air strikes! It has been reported that the three flight regiments participating in the escort mission encountered a total of 18 enemy fighters intercepting them, of which the first flight regiment did not encounter an opponent, while the second flight regiment faced 10 enemy planes. Compared with the zero losses of the 3rd Flying Regiment, the 2nd Flying Regiment was shot down and 2 aircraft were injured, but the fighters of the 2nd Flying Regiment were also quite good, and achieved a good record of shooting down 6 enemy planes and damaging 2, but it was a pity that the pilot became one of the few first prisoners of war in the Association of Southeast Asia!

Through two days of fierce fighting, the Chinese Air Force demonstrated to the whole world its tough skills; with the loss of less than 20 fighters, it shot down more than 90 enemy fighters, and not only competed with advanced US fighters, but also fought against Russia's advanced fighters; its excellent results fully showed the world that the fighters developed by the Chinese themselves are not inferior to any excellent fighters in the world! According to statistics, 84 pilots of the Chinese Air Force have successfully shot down enemy planes, six of whom have shot down more than two enemy planes, and many have damaged enemy planes.

As the main aviation division since its entry into the war, the Second Air Force Division has dispatched nearly 200 sorties, conducted seven large and small air battles, destroyed 39 enemy planes, and shot down 15 enemy planes of the Third Flying Regiment alone, making it one of the flight regiments that shot down the most enemy planes in the whole army. The outstanding achievements of the Second Naval Aviation Division have been commended by the General Headquarters and have been hailed as the king's division of the whole army, and have become the envy of other naval aviation units. However, no one can do anything about this opportunity problem, the strength of the Second HNA Division is relatively strong, and it is the main aviation division participating in this war, not only participating in the first battle in Southeast Asia, but also participating in the air war against Vietnam and the air battle against the Philippines, counting the battles they participated in the most, what makes other air divisions even more breathless is that the Philippines, a major air combat player, the Second HNA Division participated in two batches of six escort formations, and they encountered the enemy four times, you must know that some aviation divisions participated in six or seven escort battles, and only exchanged fire with the enemy three or four times. Even the Filipinos prefer the Second Division of the HNA Army! By the end of the battle on the 22nd, a total of 5 fighters were shot down, one fighter plane was injured and crashed, another 9 fighters were damaged to varying degrees, one pilot was also captured, two were seriously injured, and one was slightly injured, and the losses were also the heaviest in the whole army! The 3rd Flying Regiment, as the main flying regiment that participated in many battles, participated in a total of four air battles, and suffered heavy losses of its own; of the 15 fighters shot down by the division, 6 were in the 3rd Flying Regiment, and one plane was injured and crashed, and the attrition was also the most serious, and all the light and serious casualties were in this flying regiment. The brilliant achievements of the 3rd Flying Regiment also lie in the fact that it shot down a total of 10 enemy planes, two of which shot down 2 enemy planes and one shot down 4 of them, making it the team with the best combat record in the whole army and the largest concentration of pilots!

The battlefield is the easiest place to become famous, since the first battle shot down two enemy planes, Lin's nickname has quickly spread among the various aviation divisions, everyone is envious, but also very unconvinced, some say that he was lucky, some say that his sick cat caught a dead mouse, in short, one does not recognize his "brilliant record" of the other captain. But in private, everyone is also muttering, it is indeed not easy to defeat opponents in close combat, and it is even more difficult to shoot down two opponents in one battle in today's strange air combat, and many people recall the situation of fighting with this "lucky man" in the air force competition - this kid is indeed not simple, and he has won the grand prize several times! Meritorious person award, there is criticism for the exceedance! In order to encourage this group of hairy young men to "work hard", the Central Military Commission and the G Defense Department immediately offered their tried and tested tricks, commended the whole army, and promoted them to military ranks! As a result, a number of pilots were commended by the Air Force, and some pilots were promoted to military ranks. For example, at 19 o'clock in the afternoon of the 22nd, Lin * was promoted from captain to major, not only becoming the youngest major pilot in the whole army, but also becoming the darling of the Internet, the object of people's pursuit of comments, and becoming a fashionable figure!

In the short period of time since the start of the war, Lin* has fought four times, and his physical strength has been seriously depleted, and his comrades-in-arms are still not easy, most of them have participated in the war many times, and everyone no longer feels excited, but feels deep fatigue. But the war has just begun, new battles are waiting for them, and as long as the republic is not at peace for a day, the soldiers will have to splash blood on the battlefield, shed their blood for the good of the republic, and even give their young lives! New combat missions have been issued, and what awaits them will be new enemies, new opponents, new battlefields and new achievements!

The war in Southeast Asia was destined to be an expanded war, and from the very beginning, war was inevitable! This war is an inadequately prepared war, not fully prepared for China, and not fully prepared for the backers behind Southeast Asia. When the Sino-Philippine War broke out suddenly on the 21st, it obviously caught many countries by surprise, and even some countries in Southeast Asia felt a little too fast, because they had not fully coordinated with other allies! In this war, the biggest variable is Japan, if she participates from the beginning, contains China's heavy forces in the East China Sea, and forces China's Second Artillery Corps and Air Force units to be unable to move south, then the Southeast Asian countries will definitely be able to independently confront China, of course, if the Americans can arrive one step earlier, then the chances of victory in Southeast Asia will increase sharply. But the outbreak of the 21 Sino-Philippine War and Japan's adoption of neutrality made the situation develop in favor of China! Now, these countries are desperate for India to get involved, and they are desperate for the U.S. Navy on Guam to arrive soon.

However, the Sino-Vietnamese War broke their last calculation, and the Sino-Vietnamese War broke out early, and some countries have enough reason to believe that China fired the first shot and created the incident, but there is no point in arguing about this issue. Since Vietnam was crushed in half a day, it can be said that it has been defeated, which makes the already delicate situation even more delicate, first of all, the few countries that have not yet declared war cannot sit idly by and watch their allies being eaten by China one by one, and must make a choice as soon as possible. Secondly, the strong combat power of the squadron has made some countries hesitate, India has retreated to a considerable extent, the envoys of the three countries in Japan have basically been placed under house arrest, and the Americans are thousands of miles away, and they can't quench their thirst! Third, China is already forcing the three countries to declare war, Vietnam has just been defeated, and the Philippines has been bombed indiscriminately by China's missile forces and navy and air force, and is about to lose most of its combat strength, so India, Malaysia and Thailand have to "willingly" declare war on China! On the morning of the 22nd, the three countries demanded that China stop its attack on Vietnam, otherwise it reserved the right to declare war, while China demanded that the other side disarm the firepower of Vietnamese warships and threaten to declare war; In the afternoon, the governments of the three countries issued even more sternly worded diplomatic statements, but unfortunately the Chinese side ignored them, and instead stepped up military maneuvers, and this is not the end, and carried out indiscriminate bombing of the Philippines, paralyzing its air combat and air combat bases! The eastward movement of the "Zheng He" and "Dongfang" aircraft carrier battle groups forced the three countries to dispatch fighters to contain them, and it was already an "undeclared war"!

The war in Southeast Asia has expanded and exploded!

The "Zheng He" and "Dongfang" aircraft carrier battle groups actually have no intention of attacking the Philippines, and this move is completely to attract the three countries to take action and prepare for China's next round of military actions! The two aircraft carrier battle groups of the South China Sea Fleet have to deal with the US aircraft carrier fleet that may arrive and the navies and air forces of the three Southeast Asian countries, and the task is quite arduous. The U.S. fleet is very strong and requires them to devote all their strength to deal with it, which makes it urgent to eliminate worries and solve or minimize the threat before the opponent arrives, which becomes their strategic priority! The three countries also know that the effect of enduring it may be better, but the position of the Philippines is too important, they dare not give up, if the Philippines is gone, then the Americans will not join in, no one dares to guarantee! Although the fighters of the three countries did not attack China's aircraft carrier battle group, after being intercepted by carrier-based aircraft and discovering that the two aircraft carrier battle groups had no intention of participating in the attack, they retreated and returned to their previous state of no war and discord.

But the Chinese obviously do not think so, and at 15:15 on the 22nd, China asked the three countries to explain the activities of their fighter groups over the South China Sea and the violation of China's territorial waters! The diplomatic rhetoric was so serious that the three governments were so nervous that they wanted to immediately issue a declaration of war against China. At 18:30, China issued a declaration of war, feeling unbearable for Thailand's refusal to hand over Vietnamese warships and continuous provocations, and determined to "use practical actions to maintain authority" and officially declare war on Thailand;Chinese In this case, the three countries no longer flinched, and at 18:40, they jointly issued a declaration of war, so far, the war in Southeast Asia broke out in full force, and it was only one day before the war was launched!
