Chapter 34: The Bloody Battle of Luodian (6)
"Starlight" missile system, is a British Schott company successfully developed a portable surface-to-air air defense missile system, 1 meter 4 long, the weight of the whole system is less than 20 kg, can be a single shoulder shot, the minimum combat distance of 300 meters, the maximum combat distance of 7000 meters, this portable air defense system is one of the most advanced individual air defense systems in later generations, after the missile is launched, the missile can be quickly accelerated to Mach 4, and after the rocket engine is burned, the three bullets distributed in the front end of the missile body are separated, guided by the laser beam, The three of them maintain a fixed triangular formation and fly towards the target together. This amazing design makes it almost 100% hit per shot.
Long before coming to Shanghai to participate in the war, Bai Fei thought that he might encounter Japanese planes when he came to Shanghai, so he exchanged 5 Starlight and a number of missiles on the train, handed them over to the mute and his 20 subordinates for safekeeping, and took the time to teach them how to use them.
At this time, seeing the Japanese planes flying, Bai Fei immediately glanced at the dumb man, and the dumb man understood, and took out a few boxes with his subordinates, took out the "Starlight" portable missile system from them, and began to prepare for loading.
Soon, the Japanese planes flew to the position of the national army, when the first three fighters swooped down from the clouds, the heavy machine guns on the plane fired frantically at the position, the bullets hit the land, splashed more than one meter high dust, the bullets that kept firing formed several chains of death, many soldiers and wounded of the 66th Regiment who had no time to dodge were immediately beaten on their backs, and many people's bodies were directly shattered, and the broken hands and feet were unknown, and the scene was extremely bloody.
Hu Lian roared angrily and organized dozens of people armed with rifles and machine guns to shoot wildly at the Japanese planes in the sky, but the Japanese planes flew very fast, whistling past, and quickly opened up the distance, and such an attack was completely ineffective against them.
After the three planes flew into the sky, they circled side by side with great force, and the pilots gestured to each other in the air, and when they were about to dive again, the pilots suddenly saw a flash in front of them, and they felt that several shells with tail flames flew by. Immediately afterward, two bombers behind them, which were about to lower their flight altitude and drop bombs, let out two earth-shattering explosions.
Generally speaking, in order to accurately drop bombs, bombers during World War II would reduce their flight altitude after flying to the target to achieve the purpose of accurate bombing. A bomber is an aircraft for the purpose of tactical bombing, it is a large model, and it lacks flexibility, so there will be fighters to escort the mission when it comes out.
However, for the escort fighters, Bai Fei felt that the threat of the bombers was greater, and the bombs carried on them were at least giant bombs of more than 100 kilograms, and some were even measured in tons. If this is thrown in the crowd, it is not impossible for a company or even a battalion to be reimbursed in an instant. Therefore, Bai Fei instructed the mute and his subordinates to use the "Starlight" to attack the bombers first.
A total of four Japanese bombers came this time, and two of them were destroyed before they could drop bombs over the Chinese positions. The explosion of the plane caused the bombs carried by the bombers to detonate, two huge mushroom clouds rose in mid-air, and the two fighters escorting the aircraft on the side were affected by the explosion, causing the plane to lose control, smoke and carry down from the air, and fall to pieces by the Panjing River.
Immediately afterwards, two other Japanese bombers and a fighter plane that had not had time to react were hit by three Starlight missiles that followed, and the huge explosions one after another surprised everyone on the battlefield. Soon, bursts of cheers from the Chinese soldiers were heard from the position.
At this time, there were still 6 Japanese fighters left in the sky, and the pilots finally reacted, knowing that the Chinese army was equipped with air defense equipment, although they did not know what kind of weapon it was, but they were no longer unscrupulously arrogant, almost at the same time, the Japanese fighters that were originally hovering about 1,500 meters above the position were pulled up one after another, and the five planes flew in a straight line towards the sky, in a vain attempt to escape the arrival of death by pulling up the altitude. However, there was still a plane that did not escape, and it seemed that it had discovered the position where Bai Fei and others were attacking the Japanese planes, and one swooped downwards and flew towards this side regardless of it, quite a bit of sacrificing his life for righteousness, probably trying to kill the Chinese army's air defense position.
"Kill the planes that escaped first!" When Bai Fei saw this scene, he immediately ordered the dumb man and the others to continue shooting, he knew that the fighters during the Japanese and World War II were still flying quite high, up to about 8,000---10,000 meters, if they really let them fly 7,000 meters away, the "Starlight" would be ineffective against them.
The mute who had just loaded the ammunition and the other five people immediately aimed at the fleeing Japanese plane, and soon, five dazzling fireworks broke out in the sky.
At this time, the dive-down fighter had already flown below 300 meters, exceeding the minimum distance that Starlight could attack, and the most important thing was that the anti-aircraft equipment that had just been launched had not yet had time to load. The Japanese enemy planes roared past, and the machine gun bullets fell like a raging storm, and Bai Fei immediately scattered people to lie down and dodge, but still 5 soldiers from the quartermaster department were killed. The dumb man screamed anxiously, and Bai Fei's teeth itched with hatred.
The enemy plane swept it with its on-board machine gun, flew into the air and turned over, turned its nose and swooped down again, intending to continue the attack. At this moment, a burst of fire characteristic of Gatling guns suddenly sounded from the side positions.
Bai Fei turned his head to see that Wang Weiguo and Li Shuyang, who were defending the flank, saw that Bai Fei and the others were in danger, and ordered their subordinates to move the Gatling machine gun to a slope and shoot at the Japanese fighters in the air from the ground.
The six Gatlings fired together, and the dense bullets immediately formed a web of death within a kilometer range in the air, but the Japanese pilots seemed to be determined to kill Bai Fei and the others, and rushed straight over regardless of it, thinking that they could resist twice, even if they finally drove the plane directly into the air defense position of the Chinese army and died together.
But he obviously didn't understand the sheer power of the Gatling Metal Storm, and the plane had just touched Gatling's firepower network, and in less than two seconds, it was torn to pieces by thousands of bullets, and several large fireballs fell from the sky.
So far, the Japanese army sent to bomb and attack the Chinese army, 9 fighters and 4 bombers, all shot down.
At this time, the Japanese commander Kanichiro Ueno, who had once again transferred his troops to the east bank of the Panjing River and was preparing to cross the river to fight with the air force, saw the scene in front of him, and his heart was like falling into an ice cave, and he stood by the river without saying a word for half a sound.
Seeing that his face was different, the attendants immediately stepped forward to check and inquire. I saw the corners of Ueno's Kanichiro's mouth move, poof, and spurt out a mouthful of blood, which frightened the attendants to beat their chests and wipe their backs, and Ueno relieved himself.
Kanichiro Ueno waved his hand slowly, and said to the commander beside him: "Pass the order, and the whole army will immediately retreat to Tsukiura." ”
