Chapter 181: The First Battle of the Air Force 2
The Japanese green-skinned plane and Chen Xuan's silver plane appeared over the suburbs of Shanghai at about the same time.
Ignoring the warnings of the air raid sirens, the citizens happily climbed into their own buildings to watch the battle, and even the consuls of the various countries in the concession each found a high ground to watch the first air battle between the two countries.
The two groups of planes also discovered each other at the first time, and rushed directly towards the enemy, while dodging and firing at each other with aviation machine guns, countless pale black bullet marks were staggered in the air, just one hedge, three Japanese planes were hit, and they were planted to the ground with black smoke, and the violent explosion ignited a piece of fire, and it can be estimated that the pilot has no chance of survival.
There was a tsunami of cheers on the ground, Chen Xuan's plane had appeared in the sky over Shanghai, of course they knew that those planes with a cute wings painted on the silver tail were their own planes, and the green planes that fell were of course Japanese.
After a period of hedging, the plane of the Flying Tigers was not without Shanghai, and one plane returned on the spot, and it is conceivable that this plane was also heavily damaged, otherwise it would not have been possible to withdraw from the battle so quickly.
After the hedging, the formation of the planes has been disrupted, and the pilots are driving their favorite planes to fight separately, but the planes of the Flying Tigers seem to be more cunning, and there is close cooperation between the two, which is also the tactic that Chen Xuan reminded Feng Ru.
Entering the dog fight, the performance of the two planes was reflected at once, and the Japanese aircraft was originally quite good, but compared with Feng Ru's aircraft, the gap came out, whether it was firepower, the aircraft's speed, agility and diving skills, it was much higher than the Japanese aircraft.
What's more, there is still cooperation between the Flying Tigers in pairs, many times it is more to fight less, this time the little devil's plane is tragic, from time to time a plane is shot down, dragging a long black smoke to the ground, causing bursts of cheers.
Chen Xuan and the other officers were also so nervous that they couldn't do it, and the fingers holding the telescope turned white because of the force they exerted, and every time they saw the enemy's plane shot down, they were as intoxicated as if they had drunk old immortal wine, and they were heartbroken when they saw their fighters injured or in distress.
The commander of the devil is not stupid, after experiencing several times after his own fighters were shot down, he began to order a retreat, and the remaining 5 planes circled and began to flee after the distance from the fighters of the Flying Tigers, and how could the Flying Tigers let them leave so easily, and they chased after each other.
In this short air battle between the two teams, seven Japanese planes were shot down on the spot, and the rest were fleeing, while the Flying Tigers were shot down one on the spot, and two planes returned home with serious injuries, and it is not known that they were slightly injured.
The plane disappeared from everyone's sight, but everyone knew that the devil's plane wanted to return safely under the pursuit of the Flying Tigers whose performance, firepower, and agility surpassed their abilities, but it was not so easy, but they couldn't see it, and they felt very sorry.
But even so, the atmosphere at the scene was extremely warm.
"Haha, I can't imagine that the third brother Ding has been sharpening a sword for ten years, and he is so powerful, and this little devil still dares to look at us squarely?"
"That's right, the third brother of Ding is really a blockbuster!"
"15 to 12, directly shot down 7 enemy fighters and only lost 1 of them, the third brother of Ding is a great achievement, you must know that the Japanese aircraft have experience in fighting with German aircraft, and the Germans were also defeated by devils, I didn't expect to plant a big heel in us!"

A group of senior officers of the Ba'ath Party discussed a lot, and Chen Xuan was also excited, and he had been lying on salary for several years, wasn't it just for this day to raise his eyebrows? This was the first time he had fought with a foreigner, and he won the first time (obviously Chen Xuan did not take the Dutch in Nanyang seriously).
"Everyone!"
As soon as Chen Xuan spoke, a group of officers hurriedly sat down solemnly, their bodies straight.
"The Air Force has already played its own style, and the Navy is expected to be waiting for news from the Air Force at this time, and our Army has fought some civil wars, but they are not fierce battles, and since I have sent planes to weigh our weight today, I do not rule out the possibility of expanding the scale of the war. I command! β
As soon as Chen Xuan's words fell, all the officers stood up in unison.
"Du Xiao moved to Ulaanbaatar! Responsible for the defense of the whole Mongolia, although the Russians were pinned down by the Germans on the European front, but also beware of the Russians making trouble, and at the same time, the work of Mongolia must not stop, Song Dudu (Song Jiaoren) has gone to Mongolia, you must cooperate with the work of Song Dudu! β
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! β
Du Xiao saluted, then sat down.
"Zhang Xiaozhun!"
"Here!"
"You handed over the work of Mongolia to Du Xiao, and then stationed in Suiyuan, in the same way, to vigorously develop local industry and commerce, the plan to introduce population cannot be broken, within three years, I need to see a different Suiyuan! Qin Yuan moved to the station before Zhang Xiaozhun, and his work remains the same! β
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! β
Zhang Xiaozhun and Qin Yuan saluted.
"Sun Zhiheng!"
"Here!"
"You don't have to go back to Mongolia, immediately rush to Heilongjiang to form a group army of the Northeast Army, under the jurisdiction of Heilongjiang, Jilin and Suiyuan, and the group army has entered a state of first-class combat readiness! If the Japanese army dares to expand the war, they will fight in Goryeo, do not let the war happen within our borders, if possible, push the Japanese in Lushun into the sea, and tell Zhang Zuolin in Mukden that if you want to be a traitor, you can make it difficult for us! Your side is under the most pressure, so you can tell me if you have any difficulties! β
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! β
"Li Jinxu!"
"Here!"
"You will hand over the work of the Anshan Defense Area to Jiang Zhongqi, and immediately go north with Commander Sun, you will be responsible for the defense of Jilin, and the army will enter a state of first-level combat readiness!"
"Yes!"
"Sun Hongye!"
"Here!"
"You form the Southeast Group Army, under the jurisdiction of Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, and then the Japanese army will attack, resolutely resist the enemy outside the country, many fortifications and batteries along the coast have not been completed, you must complete it within 3 months!"
"Yes!"
"Wang Xuefu!"
"Here!"
"If the Japanese army wants to expand the war, it will inevitably start from the South Seas and the southeast coast, the test of your navy is coming, it is impossible to buy warships in Europe, I will contact the Americans to see if I can buy some warships, in addition, I will arrange Jiangnan Shipyard and Mawei Shipyard to vigorously build warships, whether it can snow a hundred years of humiliation, it depends on your navy! Navy seniors Deng Shichang and Liu Buzhan are all looking at you! β
"Yes! I'm invincible! β
I can't help but be excited by Wang Xuefu, for hundreds of years, the navy has not raised its head in the world, and the navy is the largest mouse, and there are already colleagues in the army who are saying strange things behind their backs, but there is no way to justify everything!
"Okay, everyone, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, whether you can earn a living space for the country and the nation is up to you! Time does not allow, I will not leave you behind, you each go back to your own station, and when the war is won, I will personally celebrate your achievements! β
γγγγγγ
After sending off these officers, Chen Xuan and Sun Zhiheng walked out together.
"Manniu, your task this time is the heaviest, the combined troops of Hei, Ji, and Sui provinces are only 200,000, after you go back this time, don't forget the training of the militia, these militias are all reserve soldiers of the Northeast Group Army, don't wait until the start of the fight to find that there is no place to replenish the troops."
"Don't worry, brother, I know the severity!"
"Manniu, when my brother can't stand you, you and your brother and sister have just met for less than three days, and you have to go to the front line againγγγγγγ"
"Brother, what do you say? Didn't you say that what we are doing today is just to keep our next generation from being humiliated by us, I understand all these truths, and I will not let you down. β
After Sun Zhiheng finished speaking, he smiled at Chen Xuan and strode away.
"Yiyang, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not."
Zhao Xuechu, who participated in Sun Zhiheng's send-off, said suddenly.
"Brother Xuechu, our own brother, what should we not say?"
"Don't you notice that there seems to be something wrong with the bull?"
"Questions? What's the problem? β
"It's been a few years since the wild cow got married, and when I was in Nanyang, I lived with Miss Huang for more than a year, but I still have no children, don't you think it's strange?"
"What do I want to say, giving birth to a child also depends on fate, isn't there a lot of couples who have lived together for a few years before they have children, they are still young, what are you anxious about?"
"However, in the three days that Manniu returned to Shanghai, he only went home on the first day, and then he accompanied the old brothers to drink and have fun, or just to study the military hair, which is not normal."
"Brother Xuechu, you think too much, don't worry about these things, by the way, how is the resumption of work in the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau?"
"Hey! Don't say it, the big brother of the United States and their alliance will not know what they are doing all these years, a good manufacturing bureau has stopped working, not to mention, a lot of valuable machines have been secretly sold out, except for some workers who have been accepted by us, most of them are living on the streets, and they can't even eat, these months, we have maintained the bulky machines left behind, and replenished them, and the workers have also been recruited back, and are participating in training, it is estimated that it will be put into production in a few days! β
"These moths, settle accounts with them sooner or later!" Chen Xuan scolded fiercely: "You have to step up, since the Japanese are already testing us, it is difficult to say whether they will fight, we must not only meet European orders, but also expand our reserves, the pressure is not small, the industrial strength of the Japanese is stronger than ours, but if we fight along the coast, we have a geographical advantage, and the transportation cost is far lower than theirs, so we are not afraid of a war!" β
"Don't worry, I've walked through the major military factories this time, everything looks pretty good, if we really fight, we can also expand our production capacity, and although the Japanese say that the technology is more advanced than ours, but our resources are not comparable to their small projectile country, just steel production we will throw them a lot, as for the orders from Europe, Minister Ma (Ma Junwu, Minister of Industry of Xia Guo) they share in the Nanyang, the impact on us is not very great!"
