Chapter 486: Commander Su Lectures
The defeated fighter formation made Zhong Yuhuan, who was still immersed in yesterday's physiology, feel like he had been hit on the head, and he realized that the reason why the 202nd Army was able to become an opponent that gave both the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor a headache was not a fluke, although their flight troops suffered heavy losses yesterday, but it was less than a night's effort, and they immediately transferred a large number of anti-aircraft artillery units from elsewhere to make up for the lack of air power, and this kind of rapid reaction capability even an arrogant person like Yuhuantang had to be surprised.
"The people of China have strengthened their anti-aircraft firepower on the ground, and there are also a lot of heavy anti-aircraft artillery, Caolu-kun, do you have any good solutions?" Yu Huan pestered the captain of the Chicheng on the side, Kusaka Ryunosuke Osa.
Kusaka Ryunosuke shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, either we send all the fighters out to destroy all the air defense forces of the Chinese people, or we will send ground troops to break the blockade of the Chinese people and rescue them from Okuyama Fengtaisa, there is no other way." ”
Yu Huan took a deep breath and stopped talking, he wouldn't consider the first way, using those elite Imperial Naval Aviation and expensive fighters that can only be trained for several years to fight hard with those dense anti-aircraft artillery that are worth only thousands of yen, no matter how funny his brain is, he won't do it, then the only thing left is the second one.
After thinking about it, Yu Huantang said with some hesitation: "Caolu-kun, although there is still a wing of troops on the troop carrier of our fleet, you must know that the people of the branch are several times that of us, if this wing is also folded on it, I am afraid that some people in the base camp will gossip." ”
Kusaka Ryunosuke knew what Yu Huan was worried about at a glance, and he couldn't help but comfort: "Your Excellency General, please don't worry. If those people in the army can't even save their own colleagues, then their existence is worthless, then there is no need for the empire to spend so much money to support these people. ”
Although Kusaka Ryunosuke's voice was not loud, there was a ruthless coldness in and out of his words. It has to be said that the concept of the Japanese is rather peculiar, in their values people are only divided into valuable and worthless, valuable according to their value and ability to determine their social status and official position, worthless people in addition to wasting food and materials at all, is not at all useful, belongs to the ranks that should be eliminated, this can be seen from the Japanese at every turn to order the defeated officers to disembowel, for the Japanese people who fail are worthless, no longer worthy of living in the world, Therefore, it is not surprising that Ryunosuke Kusaka would speak such a language.
Today, Crawford drove his $500 Willis jeep down the streets on the north bank of the Qiantang River, next to his companion Carl Brown of the 72nd Brigade of the 16th Wing of the U.S. Army Air Corps. Captain Dodge.
Crawford whistled and said to his companions: "Carl, I can't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, this place was in ruins a month ago, but now there are government personnel here directing workers to dig sewers, and just now I saw several excavators and hundreds of workers working in full swing, it's hard to believe that there was a massacre here not long ago." ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Karl shrugged: "I was stunned when I saw that large bloody corpse by the river that day, I can swear to God, this is the most dead person I have ever seen in my life, just like a slaughtered poultry still on the ground, I will never forget this scene in my life, I can't believe that there is such a barbaric army in the world." The only thing I am glad for is that such a tragic situation did not happen in our United States of America, and it seems that we have come to China to help this time. ”
"That's why these Japanese dwarfs completely angered the Su general, and finally the Fukuoka incident happened." Crawford put his left hand on his chest: "You may not know, this is not the first time that the Japanese have done such a thing, two years ago in Nanjing they killed more than 300,000 Chinese people with bayonets, gasoline and all kinds of strange methods. So although many newspapers are accusing him this time, I still have to say that he did the right thing this is what a man does, and I would do the same if I had changed, maybe it is the most correct thing to let this nation disappear as soon as possible. ”
"That's just your opinion, for me, I'm more interested in the plane that can fly to Fukuoka to cause trouble." Karl's eyes showed a look of curiosity, "I can't believe how a bomber capable of carrying nine tons of bombs can be made in such an industrially backward country and flying to Tokyo to bomb, how big it must be!" ”
Crawford said helplessly: "Don't think about this, I haven't inquired about it for almost a month, and the Huaxia people regard it as highly confidential, and even the airport where it stops is a mystery." ”
While the two were talking, the car drove out of the city towards the airport in the western suburbs.
Out of the city, the road began to get rough, and looking at the thick dust behind him that appeared in the rearview mirror, Crawford asked again: "Carl, is it true that what you said is that the flying group has begun to change its outfit again?" ”
Carl shook his head: "Actually, this is just my guess, but I think it's very likely. You must know that two days ago, the flying group suffered a great defeat, and only 27 of the 60 fighters of the two squadrons they dispatched came back, and all the others were shot down by the Japanese, so the atmosphere of the flying group in the past few days was very tense. ”
"Hiss......" Crawford gasped, he had been here for several months, he already had a general understanding of the 202nd Army, the entire flight group was only 60 planes used for air combat, and now it lost most of it at once, this loss was absolutely traumatic for the 202nd Army, he couldn't help but blurt out: "Could it be that they ran to bomb the Japanese fleet, otherwise how could there be such a big loss?" ”
"No!" Karl shook his head: "It is said that they ran into a new type of fighter of the Japanese, the speed of this fighter is terrifying, the Wildcat and Messerschmidt equipped with the flying group are not its opponents at all, plus the Japanese have prepared a trap waiting for them, and the flying group that was not prepared at all crashed into it, was caught off guard, and finally ......" Speaking of this, Carl sighed and stopped talking, although he was an American soldier, and he did not have a boundary with the 202nd Army at all, It's just that after staying here for a few months, I have some feelings, and naturally I don't want to see such a thing happen.
"New fighters?" Unlike Carl, Crawford pondered for a while and then asked: "You are from the Air Force, and you have a common language with the flying group, can you ask those pilots some information about those new Japanese fighters, I am afraid that we also need to know about such a fighter that has never been seen before." ”
"I'm afraid not." Carl shook his head: "Since the defeat of the flight team, the entire western suburbs airport has begun to be under martial law, and I have not been able to contact those Chinese colleagues at all in the past two days, I have a hunch, I am afraid that we will not even be able to enter their airport later." ”
Karl's words were quickly fulfilled, and when they came to the entrance of the airport, they were stopped by the guards with serious faces, and the second lieutenant at the head told them very simply that the commander personally came to the flight group to sit in the town, and gave a strict order, except for the trucks transporting ammunition and supplies, everyone was strictly forbidden to enter and leave during this time, let alone the two Yankees.
And what is Su Jin doing? At this time, Su Jin was taking lessons with all the pilots. Yes, you heard it right, Su Jin, a guy who has never even touched an airplane, is giving a lesson to those guys who are proud of the sky.
Today, the largest conference hall at the Western Suburbs Airport, which can accommodate several hundred people at the same time, is full of people, including not only the 41 fighter pilots of the flight group who survived the first two air battles, but also the pilots of the Stuka dive bombing squadron and the transport squadron, and even the flight cadets of the second phase are also present, and hundreds of pilots fill the hall.
Su Jin, who was dressed in a training uniform, stood in front of a large blackboard, holding a piece of chalk in his hand, and the big blackboard behind him was a three-dimensional image of a fighter plane.
"As we all know, our flying group suffered a big loss in the battle with the devil two days ago, and was caught off guard by a new kind of plane that appeared by the little devil, not only lost thirty-three planes, but even several of the planes that flew back had to be scrapped because of serious damage, and more importantly, nineteen brothers left us forever that day!"
Hearing this, all the pilots showed a solemn and humiliated look on their faces, and that air battle was the biggest defeat that the flight group had suffered since its establishment, and it was also the heaviest loss. Du Changfeng, who was sitting in the first row, trembled slightly because of anger, although he was lucky to parachute and survived in that air battle, but he lost his wingman and his best brother.
"I know everyone is sad and sad, but we can't solve the problem now, the most important thing for us now is to find out the weaknesses of this Japanese machine and knock them down!" Su Jin's loud voice echoed in the conference room, "Through the efforts of the intelligence department, we have finally figured out the model and characteristics of this new Japanese fighter. This fighter is a fighter specially designed to seize air supremacy recently shot out by the Japanese, because the Japanese originally planned to let it officially enter service next year, and next year is exactly the year 2600 of the Japanese Emperor's Age, the last two numbers are just "00", so it is called the Zero fighter, and its official name is the "Zero carrier-based fighter".
