After giving the order, Mikey put the flaps in the cruising position, adjusted the elevator and rudder, and adjusted the pitch of the propeller to the cruising position. Then he turned on the power switch of the altimeter and set the bomb altitude, which is an important instrument to ensure that he can get out of the dive before entering the dangerous altitude, it can calculate when the plane should drop the bomb and pull it up, Mickey set the bomb drop altitude on the altimeter is 350 meters, which is the limit altitude at which he can safely get out of the dive, and it will be difficult for the plane to ensure that it does not hit the ground before pulling it up.

Mickey then turned the supercharger switch to automatic and turned the throttle to a minimum, then he turned off the air inlet in the cooler. With these preparations done, Mickey pushed the joystick, and the heavy dive bomber began to head straight down to the ground.

For a professional dive bomber, flight speed and altitude are not particularly important performance, longitudinal stability during dive and the sturdiness of the fuselage are the most important concerns of the designer. Stuka gave the designers a satisfying answer to this question, and its surprisingly high stability during the dive was mainly due to the action of the two huge fixed landing gears and the huge dive brakes under the wings, known as "pneumatic brakes". The huge landing gear acts as two vertical stabilizers when diving, and the dive airbrake makes this effect even more significant. But this also raises another problem, the Stuka's longitudinal stability is a little too good, so good that it becomes very difficult to make a sudden maneuver that is a little larger, and this type of maneuver is often the most common way to dodge an enemy fighter's attack.

The Stuka's sturdy fuselage allows it to withstand tremendous torsion forces that are unimaginable compared to other aircraft. It can change to a dive state immediately after a high-speed dive, and the fuselage must withstand at least six G's of pressure in the process.

It was this excellent performance that made Stuka the best ground support force in the early years of World War II. Its appearance even radically changed the combat mode of the German Army, and some of the old methods of warfare were abandoned, and new close air support tactics were developed on the basis of the scheme of use of such aircraft. It can be said that the development of this tactic created by the Luftwaffe was far ahead of their counterparts in Europe, and now these Germans are using this state-of-the-art tactic to drop bombs on their allies, the Japanese.

As Stuka swooped, a terrifying shrill siren immediately began to sound in the sky, and a burst of shrill sirens sounded from mid-air to the ground, when the warring Chinese and Japanese sides raised their heads. I saw a group of black fighters swooping down on the ground at a near-vertical angle.

The sound of sirens that resounded throughout the sky and earth suppressed the fierce gunfire for a while, and the two sides that were fighting within a radius of more than ten kilometers turned their eyes to the sky.

"Nani, are our bombers back?"

At first glance, Yuki Fukunaga, who heard the siren in the sky, was first overjoyed. Then he immediately raised his head and looked at the sky, although he always disdained the army aviation in his usual words, but in fact he knew very well in his heart that without the help of the aviation troops, his troops would have to pay at least several times more if they wanted to capture the positions of the Chinese people on the opposite side. Only when his originally happy gaze looked at the sky. But his gaze quickly froze.

I saw that a group of black, strangely shaped iron birds were rushing down to the ground at a vertical angle, and Yukichi Fukunaga immediately sensed that the position where the iron birds were diving was the densest part of the Japanese attack formation.

"Yaga, what's that!"

Not to mention the Japanese soldiers who were looking up at the sky one after another, even the self-proclaimed well-informed Yuyoshi Fukunaga was stunned, in the past, when the Japanese bombers bombed, most of the dive bombing was actually horizontal bombing, at most it was only a dive at an angle of thirty or forty angles, and he had never seen an aircraft that dived at a near-vertical angle like this.

Yukichi Fukunaga, who was stunned, muttered to himself, "Where did this idiot come from, are they going to commit suicide?" ”

Soon, though. Fukunaga's doubts were solved, and the huge blue sky and white sun badges on the wings of those bombers that were diving vertically already indicated the identity of those fighters.

At this time, Yukichi Fukunaga shouted with all his might, with a hoarse voice that was almost terrible: "All machine guns immediately fire into the air...... Those are the fighters of the China! ”

In fact, there is no need for Fukunaga Yuyoshi Daisa to give orders. The machine gunners of the 231st Wing had already picked up the light machine guns and started shooting into the sky, but they were only light machine guns, and the Type 92 heavy machine guns were not in this ranks, and for a while, scattered bullets rained everywhere in the sky.

At this time, the Stuka piloted by Mickey had already entered the attack state, the nose of the plane sank down sharply, and Stuka instantly entered a dive state. The flight safety control system is activated by the linkage mechanism, the dive demobilization system is now activated, and two small red marking rods protrude from the upper surface of the wing, which is a hydraulic auxiliary mechanism, which will start working at the moment when the aircraft drops the bomb, it can limit the angle of the aircraft when pulling up, and avoid the overload gravity that the body cannot bear due to the steep pulling up causes damage to the body or leaves permanent damage.

Mickey slowly and steadily pushed the joystick, the corner of his eye couldn't help but scan the windshield in front of the right, and a series of lines were carved on the glass, these lines are an effective tool to help the pilot judge the dive angle, each line represents a dive angle, starting from 30 degrees to 90 degrees, because the dive angle of the pilot's psychological feeling during the dive is much steeper than the actual dive angle, and the accuracy of the hit is often affected by the insufficient dive angle in the past. Now, just look at which line is parallel to the ground to know at which angle Stuka is diving.

Mickey was carrying out a dive bomb at a wide angle of 80 degrees, which did not require the aircraft to perform to the fullest. And such an angle is simply too easy for a veteran bird with nearly 2,000 hours of flying, so he has time to watch the performance of his two wingmen in the rearview mirror in addition to the dive.

The pilots of these two wingmen were not from the German instructor corps, but the pilots of the former Fourth Flight Group of the Huaxia Air Force, which Su Jin assigned to dive bombers. Since they are dive bombers that have just been changed to flying, they can only be Mikey's wingman, and Mikey also has to take the opportunity to test their skills. The most important thing for a dive bomber pilot is always a test of skill and courage, and in Mickey's view, only a pilot who passes this test is qualified to fly a dive bomber of the best kind and serve as his wingman.

"Hmm...... Not bad! ”

At this time, Mickey had already seen the figures of the two wingmen in the rearview mirror, and the two Stukas behind him followed him tightly as if they were tied to his tail by a rope, and the three Stukas formed a standard attack formation, like a solid three-pointed star swooping towards the ground. The pneumatic bagpipes mounted on the engine intakes began to make a terrible whistling sound. This means that the speed of the aircraft has reached and exceeded 400 kilometers per hour at this time, and this terrible whistling sound is so terrible that it is soul-stirring for the enemy on the ground. It puts more stress on the human psyche than even a bomb hung on a wing.

Stuka made a terrible scream like a strange bird from the region falling from the sky, at this time the driver must concentrate on the scale and not relax for a moment, otherwise once he hesitates, it will be the end of the plane crash and death.

In fact, it was not only Mikey, but the two pilots Song Dachun and Peng Junhui, who followed him, were also soaked in sweat. Watch the thick earth rush towards the cockpit. This kind of sensory stimulation is not something that ordinary people can imagine, which also makes their bodies begin to secrete a large amount of adrenal hormones.

Song Dachun stared at the scale, between life and death, he felt that his sensitivity and strength were many times greater than usual, the plane was still diving, and he didn't need to look at the speedometer He also knew that the speed of the plane must have exceeded 550 kilometers per hour, and at this time the plane was less than 1,200 meters from the ground, and Song Dachun could already see the Japanese soldiers on the ground who were running around in a panic and the machine gun tracer bullets shooting at him.

Song Dachun worked hard to control the fighter plane to aim at an artillery position on the ground, waiting for the moment of bombing.

"Dangdangdang......"

A volley of bullets hit the Stuka's engine under the nose, but the bullets from the Japanese light machine gun were not even tickling the eight-millimeter-thick engine casing. The bullets left only a spark and then disappeared.

Stuka's speed was getting faster and faster, and Song Dachun, who was sitting in the cockpit, only felt that the thick earth was like a thick wall rushing towards him. At this time, the red light in front of him suddenly turned on, which was a reminder that the plane was reminding that it was time to drop the bomb.

Song Dachun fiercely pressed the bomb drop button of the control stick, and the two bombs weighing two hundred kilograms each broke away from the shackles of the belly hook and fell quickly to the ground, after doing all this, Song Dachun immediately pressed the automatic leveling control button on the side, and the nose of the plane began to rise rapidly, and at this moment, the gravity weighing six G pressed him dead in the seat, and the plane changed the dive state to level flight at a speed of ten degrees per second and began to climb slowly towards the sky.

It was only at this time that Song Dachun felt that his forehead was wet, and he wiped it casually and found that his hands were covered with sweat. Only then did he retract the dive brake and turn the engine power to maximum take-off. After opening the cooling plate and pushing the throttle valve to the maximum, the Jumo 211J-1 engine let out a frantic roar at a maximum thrust of 2,600 rpm, pushing Stuka's six-ton heavy body towards the sky, and a scorching flame rose behind him.

"Song ...... Peng...... Well done! At this time, Mikey's voice rang in their headsets: "But the game is not over yet, climb to two thousand meters and prepare to continue the dive bombing"

"Understood!"

For Miki and Song Dachun, they just dropped a few bombs, but for the Japanese army on the ground, it was like the end of the world, and the sudden bombing caught the Japanese army off guard. When several 200-kilogram bombs fell in the Japanese attack formation, a huge shock wave shook all the Japanese troops within a radius of more than 200 meters to death on the spot, and then a huge column of black smoke rose from the center of the explosion. At the same time, the artillery wing, which was originally pouring shells at the guard regiment, also fell silent, because the six bombshells dropped by Miji and Song Dachun just now had already blown up this artillery position.

In the face of such a heavy bombardment. Even if the Japanese troops of the 231st Wing were brave enough to be ********bombed for a while, the original fierce attack had to be stopped, after all, anyone who was targeted by ten dive bombers armed to the teeth was in no mood to attack the entrenched enemy again.

"Yaga...... Baga ...... How did the people of China have so many bombers, and where did they come from? Yuyoshi Fukunaga, who was supervising the battle in the back, was so angry that he took out his command knife and slashed at a small tree beside him, until he split the small tree with a thick bowl mouth into more than ten knots.

On the contrary, there were bursts of cheers and thunderous voices on the positions of the national army, and some veterans and officers were even so excited that they shed tears.

"Sir...... This is an aircraft sent by the 202nd Army. They did it, they did it! Not only the soldiers on the battlefield, but even the deputy chief of staff Li Wentian, who was watching the battle, jumped up with excitement.

Look at the group of black planes in the sky that are slowly climbing towards the sky. Calm as Zhang Zizhong can't hold back the excitement in his heart, although since the Anti-Japanese War, he has been demanding himself with the oath of "I live the country, I die and the country survives", and he is ready to sacrifice his life to defend the country at any time. But if he can survive and destroy more Japanese devils, he is naturally happy to see such a good thing.

I saw him say slowly: "Deputy Chief of Staff Li." You immediately sent a telegram to Feng Zhi'an, ordering him to immediately move closer to me, and then ordering Cao Fulin to lead the 55th Army to act as a blockade in northern Hubei to block the Japanese 13th Division and cover the westward retreat of the group army headquarters. ”

"Yes!" Li Wentian was about to take the order to leave, but soon a communications staff officer ran over with a radio on his back, shouting loudly as he ran: "Commander...... Commander, the commander of that flying formation in the sky wants to talk to you. ”

Zhang Zizhong strode forward and took the microphone and headset handed over by the communications staff officer, and after putting on the headset, a slightly strange accent voice came from his ears.

"This is the 202nd Army Flying Group. I am Colonel Mikey, the commander of the bombing formation, and the commander of the national * army on the ground hears it, please answer. The commander of the national * army on the ground hears it, please answer! ”

Zhang Zizhong said in a deep voice: "I am Zhang Zizhong, commander of the 33rd Group Army, please have something to say!" ”

"Hello General Zhang, I came to reinforce you on the order of General Su Jin of the 202nd Army, is there anything you need us to do? Or do you have any enemies that we need help destroying? If you have any requests, please speak as soon as possible, knowing that due to fuel constraints we can only stay here for another 30 ...... Well, thirty-five minutes at most. ”

Zhang Zizhong thought for a while and immediately said: "Okay, please thank your Soviet commander for me, if you can, please find out the Japanese artillery positions for me and blow them all up, if you can bombard the Japanese infantry again, it would be better!" ”

"As you wish!" There was a rustling sound in the headset, and communication stopped.

After the communication ended, Mikey connected to the team's communication channel and said in German: "Guys, the commander Zhang on the ground said, let's find out all the Japanese artillery positions and blow them up into the sky, I think this task is not difficult, so it's time to get to work." Myron, you take your two men to deal with the Japanese infantry and give them a taste of bombs, and the others follow me to trouble the Japanese artillery, so let's get moving! ”

With Mikey's order, the seven black ravens flew down and flew towards the rear of the 231st Wing, where he had seen a Japanese artillery position hidden next to a small grove, and it was time to take them out. After shaking the control stick, after removing the weight of 400 kilograms, I felt that the plane was a lot more flexible.

"Guys, let's go find out the Japanese artillery positions!" Mickey, who was so killed, pushed the joystick, and the plane flew towards the Japanese position......

More than ten minutes later, more than a dozen brilliant fireballs exploded from the Japanese position, countless gravel, dirt, and the stumps and broken arms of Japanese soldiers flew in the air, and Stuka swept over those objects, then pulled up the nose of the plane and began to climb slowly.

At this time, the Japanese position had completely changed its appearance, the terrain that could be clearly distinguished before the attack position was gone, and all that remained was a string of huge craters and corpse remains everywhere, and billowing smoke hung over the entire position, like a miserable scene like the end of the world.

Looking at the region-like scene on the ground, Miki nodded with satisfaction and said into the microphone: "Okay guys, our mission has been completed, and now it's time to return to the base!" ”

"Aha...... That's it for $500! I don't know who it was, but suddenly shouted in the channel, causing a burst of laughter.

"Oh God, what are the Tiger Shark squadrons doing?"

At this time, Hans, who was sitting behind Mikey, suddenly shouted, and Mikey looked down to see that it was the Tiger Shark squadron that was using the Bf-109 to strafe the defeated Japanese army, and one Japanese soldier fell in the rain of bullets......

"Tsk...... These guys are even robbing us of our jobs, it's so unbelievable! ”

Seeing this, Miki also shook his head helplessly, shook his wings and flew the fighter towards the road...... (To be continued.) )
