Chapter 14: Ace VS Ace (I)

The dense rainforest stretched under the wings, and the humid weather was like their mood at the moment, unbearably stuffy.

On the way back, no one spoke - although they had done their best and shot down several Japanese bombers, they could not stop the indiscriminate bombing of the Japanese planes, and the interception mission failed.

I don't know how long the British will be able to hold out......

Bago is Yangon's last barrier once the erection is lost......

The frustration of defeat, the confusion about the prospects of war...... All sorts of negative emotions, like clouds, weighed heavily on the hearts of the players along with the humid and sultry air of Burma, and there was a dead silence on the radio channel, except for the murmur of electricity.

After a long time, Kip suddenly spoke:

"Captain, you say~ can we repel the Japanese?"

Zhang Yun sighed and didn't answer.

As a time-traveler, history is impressive - Rangoon is definitely going to be lost, although he doesn't remember the specific time, but the end is doomed.

However, at this moment, how could he use this heavy news to continue to worsen the already poor mood of the team members?

"Pay attention to rest after landing, maybe there will be another mission soon." Zhang Yun diverted the topic.

They were flying over a village, but they were villages, but they couldn't see the shadow of the village anymore. Although it has not yet fallen, it has apparently been visited by the Japanese Air Force.

Smoke billowed from the ground, houses collapsed, and occasional flames could be seen rising from the rubble. The indiscriminate bombardment of the Japanese planes seemed to have turned the villagers here into frightened birds, and when Zhang Yun's day-by-day squad flew by, they seemed to think that the Japanese were coming again, and they were in a mess for a moment. They didn't know how to seriously distinguish the military badge on the plane, so they began to run for their lives.

In the village, there was a sudden burst of chickens and dogs.

Zhang Yun saw with his own eyes that an old lady who couldn't run fell to the ground, pointing at her plane and scolding as if she had been out of the way.

Zhang Yun couldn't understand what she scolded, but from the sad and indignant look on the other party's face, it was obviously not a good word.

"Such a bad guy." Kip couldn't help but mutter, "We worked hard for them, but in the end we ......"

"Alright." Zhang Yun interrupted him, "Why bother with a villager? ”

The black boy didn't say anything, and from a logical point of view, he naturally understood that the captain was reasonable, but the depression of defeat and being scolded for no reason made his heart uncomfortable. After holding it for a long time, he finally couldn't help but scold:

"Damn Japs!"

"Okay, let's say a few words~" David persuaded, "If you have time to be angry there, you might as well hurry up and go back to Mingarden to rest, and then shoot down a few more Japanese planes." ”

As he spoke, he took the lead in pulling up the fighter plane and continued to fly in the direction of Yangon's Minkaden Airport.

David is the oldest in the team and a flight instructor, except for the captain Zhang Yun, everyone is the most convinced, so when he opened his mouth, everyone stopped complaining.

The team returned in formation along the route, there was not much distance from Bago to Yangon, they didn't fly high, and they were really not in the mood to fly very high, at this visual distance, the original matchbox-sized house had clearly shown its outline, and even the golden Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, a little farther away, had already stretched out its tall and slender spire in front of Zhang Yun.

"Hey, Jon! You see! ”

George, who was flying to the left of Zhang Yun, suddenly pointed in one direction.

Zhang Yun glanced in his direction, and at 11 o'clock on the upper left, a Japanese plane was flying in this direction.

"Damn~, Japanese!" Kip was worried that he had nowhere to vent his anger, and now that he encountered a lone Japanese plane hitting the muzzle of a gun, the nameless fire in his heart could no longer be held back.

"Lieutenant, let's go kill it!"

Zhang Yun hesitated for a moment - it's not that he doesn't want to fight the Japanese, it's just that he ......

He glanced at the fuel gauge again: "Forget it, we don't have much fuel left." ”

"yes~" David also said, "I don't have much ammunition in my gun." ”

"What are you afraid of!" Kip said flatly, "Let's fight one of the four of us, and it won't be long before we can get it done!" ”

"But ......"

"Think about it, David~! This is a steak that comes to your mouth! ”

“…… George, what do you mean? Zhang Yun decided to ask the wingman for his opinion.

"I think I can give it a try, Lieutenant." George said, "The battle of Bago just now was too hot!" ”

"Hmm......" Zhang Yun was silent.

The ratio of fighting to not fighting is 2:2, and everything is up to him to decide. Although he also admits that Kip's words are reasonable, even if his side is running low on fuel and ammunition, there is still no suspense in a 4vs1 battle. It's just that he has a faint sense of foreboding in his heart, and it doesn't seem that simple for this opponent to dare to go deep into the enemy's airspace alone.

But that's not what to say......

Historically, the Japanese army has often been bold in groups and squads to penetrate behind enemy lines, and then turn around and attack the Nationalist army, only to make the Nationalist army think that it has been surrounded and defeated on all fronts...... There are countless examples of this.

So this pilot is so bold to intersperse behind enemy lines alone, is it also a bluff?

Two completely different thoughts kept weighing in Zhang Yun's mind, but before he could make a decision, Kip over there couldn't help it......

"George, you follow me, let's clean up that Japanese devil by ourselves!"

As he spoke, he pulled the nose of the plane, and George flanked him on the left and right, and struck towards the Japanese plane like pincers.

"Lieutenant, what should I do?" Davy's embarrassed question came over the radio.

Zhang Yun couldn't help but sigh softly.

"If you don't have ammunition, it's useless to pass, so let's go back first."

"What about you?"

"I'm going to help them." Zhang Yun said, "Three people against a Japanese plane, strive to end the battle earlier!" ”

※※※

Zhang Yun's P40 began to approach the war zone at a rapid pace.

But before he could arrive, the Japanese pilots on the opposite side had already discovered Kip's plan, and he flipped on his side, flew directly towards Kip, and met him head-on at almost the same altitude.

"What does he want to do?"

Zhang Yun was stunned, and before he could react, the Japanese machine had already taken the lead in firing.

At this time, Kip and his distance are at least 1,300 meters, and shooting at this distance is almost a waste of bullets, because the opponent is also in high-speed motion, as long as there is a slight deviation, the trajectory will deviate by 108,000 miles!

Moreover, the landing point of the bullet will be affected by the ballistic characteristics of each fighter, and the speed of the bullet at the end of the flight will also be reduced, and the arc of the trajectory will appear.

If it is a German or British fighter, it is easy to say, but the Japanese "Zero" is a type of aircraft that fights at close range, so it strikes at a long distance......

But he was wrong!

The point of the Japanese plane was extremely accurate, and Kip's plane immediately emitted thick black smoke!

"I've been hit!"

"Jump!"

Zhang Yun hurriedly shouted, and at the same time broke out in a cold sweat!

You must know that in the opponent state, no one will not fly in a straight line stupidly, and will generally make a slight orbit change to deal with the enemy's attack, and at such a distance, just a little variable is enough to avoid all attacks......

This is why Zhang Yun felt strange about the Japanese planes firing from a long distance.

But the reality is that the bullet of that Japanese plane is like an eye, and it just takes one shot to shoot down the kip!

White umbrella flowers bloomed behind the P40, and the out-of-control fighter immediately wailed and fell to the ground.

Zhang Yun's heart couldn't help but raise his throat, in the air battles of the past few days, he saw with his own eyes those Japanese pilots shooting at the British pilots who had already parachuted, completely ignoring the provisions of the Geneva Convention, if it wasn't really no way, he wouldn't let Kip parachute. But he really parachuted, and Zhang Yun couldn't help but start worrying again.

Fortunately, the Japanese plane did not attack the parachuted Kip like the other Japanese pilots, but rushed towards George with a somersault.

"Beware, George~!"

Zhang Yun immediately rushed over to support, the strength of this Japanese pilot was beyond his expectations, and he was still an ace pilot - this can be seen from his accurate shooting. Zhang Yun was worried about whether George could handle it.

But his worries were unfounded......

Because at the moment when he rushed into the war zone and put the pair of gloves into the sight, the Japanese plane actually turned over to Zhang Yun's rear hemisphere.
