readx; On March 24, in order to support the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Chinese Air Force was dispatched!

Prior to this, the army aviation made a crazy move. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the last day of January 1938, 30 planes attacked Luoyang. After a burst of fierce and indiscriminate bombardment, he threw down a white cloth war book and fled north.

After seeing the repeated failures of the naval air force, the army aviation unit was both a little gloating and a little frightened, so he dressed up like a knight and gave the Chinese air force a battle watch: "Brave Chinese air force fighters, I deeply respect your fighting spirit. We welcome Chinese fighters to the battlefield to fight for victory. Captain Kato of the Army Combat Team. "Kato is the captain of the 2nd Brigade of the 16th Wing of the Air Force that invaded China. This person dares to let out big words, and he is naturally not an idle person.

At the beginning of the war, the number of stars marking the results of the battle on his fuselage increased dramatically, and by this day there were eight painted on it. In addition to his skill, he is tactically cunning and dares to fight with his life. Moreover, he also has a number of masters such as Lieutenant Kawahara in his team, so he enjoys the reputation of "expelling the king" in the army and aviation.

The previous air raid on Luoyang was successful, and he was even more ambitious. When he calmed down and guessed the embarrassing situation of the Chinese Air Force after receiving the war letter, he couldn't help but smile proudly.

But he was wrong. Not long after, at Yanzhou Airport in Shandong, Kato received a letter of response from the Chinese Air Force. "This air force combatant: I received your team's battle letter and said that I want to win or lose with my army, and this team welcomes it very much, and I am also ready to teach the Chinese air force combat team." Kato held the war book in his hand, and he was surprised by the surprise, and every cell in his body was beating wildly. He felt that the battle clouds in the sky had become thicker, and a fight that had been staked for life and death had begun.

Whatever! If you don't succeed, you become a benevolent, Kato likes adventure and excitement, so he likes this fight.

The battle unfolds unconsciously.

On March 18, the 3rd Brigade of the Chinese Air Force assaulted the advance position of the Yue Army in the northern section of the Jinpu Road. On the way back, he accidentally picked up a leak and knocked out three lone planes of the Kato Brigade.

As soon as they fought, Kato folded the first battle first. But what touched the Chinese Air Force the most was not the unexpected 3-0.

In the morning, when they stormed the positions and tanks on the ground, the officers and men of the Chinese army on the other side jumped out of the trenches like crazy, shouted and cheered, and threw their military hats and water bottles into the sky.

They seem to have forgotten that they are on the front line, and that a whistling stray bullet could kill them at any moment, but they can't control themselves.

For months, as soon as they saw the plane, their instinct drove them to dodge. They had to defend themselves against the sky and the ground, and the Grim Reaper surrounded them too much. But they endured in silence and fell silently. People, at least some of the officers and men of the Air Force, are not aware of this.

Every time I was assigned the task of attacking ground targets, there was always some reluctance. Today's scene has made them know others who fought alongside them.

They were happy, sad, and even a little ashamed.

When General Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, learned of the battle situation, he could not suppress the joy and gratitude in his heart, and shouted to Lieutenant Colonel Wu Ruliu, the commander of the 3rd Brigade, on the phone:

"Very good! Very good! Thank you so much! If the Army can help in any way, just ask! ”

The Air Force is emotional! In the next few days, the air force made frequent sorties, bombing enemy stations and supply ships, and attacking enemy positions and assembly areas. They seem to owe a debt and are anxious to make up for it.

On March 24, the 3rd Brigade was in full bloom.

On the ground, the Fengqiu military position, the Jiaozuo military material train, and the Lincheng assembly site all tasted the taste of Chinese bombs.

In the sky, the Kato Brigade, which had the advantage in numbers, was originally going to make a fortune and intercept the returning Chinese fighters in the sky over Guide. Unexpectedly, the interception turned into a rout in the end, and 6 fighters including Lieutenant Kawahara, the "treasure of the Kato team", were buried in the sky of China, and the other 2 were also heavily damaged!

An annoyed Kato went to war and slapped the player's mouth for the first time.

At this point, Kato began to realize what kind of opponent he was encountering. In the evening, with a heavy heart, he wrote in the battle diary: "On March 24, I encountered the Shina team near Guide, which was unprecedented and unprecedented. ”

He was afraid of the co-captain Nitta Shaozuo's shaker gaze, so he could only slap his swollen face and become fat, and secretly add a "1" in front of the "3" results.

In the past, he had never done such a sneaky thing that would tarnish the reputation of the Imperial samurai.

On March 24, the 3rd and 4th Chinese Brigades joined forces to attack and indiscriminately bombed the artillery positions of the Japanese army.

It is said that the army's ground artillery lost dozens of guns on the spot, and hundreds of personnel.

But Kato didn't care about this, after he led 24 fighters to take off from Yanzhou Airport, he quietly ambushed in the clouds over the east of Guide, and soon the destroyer groups of the 3rd and 4th Brigades appeared. Without saying a word, Kato took the lead in breaking out of the clouds and climbing high in an attempt to occupy a favorable position.

Kato's old trick was repeated, blocking the road and setting up an ambush in an attempt to preemptively attack, but soon, he found that his fleet was completely passive as in the past.

In the lower right, he watched as a Chinese E-16 crashed into a plane, and both died.

"The Chinese are crazy."

He felt his body tremble.

Not long after, one of his squadron leaders was rammed and destroyed by another Chinese fighter plane.

"What kind of tactic is this? Bastard! When he saw an umbrella flower pop out of the Chinese faltering warplane, he rushed up desperately to open fire.

At this moment, an E-15 was killed in the oblique stab, and with the sound of gunfire, he felt that the heavens and the earth were flying, and the fuselage entered a spiral. If you look closely, the right wing of the plane has been cut off.

"It's over, I've ruined my reputation in China." In a fit of desperation, he closed his eyes. At this point, he could have parachuted, but he didn't want to.

"Boom!" The plane crashed into the dirt mountain, and a fireball rose into the sky, burning Kato's landline, **, and also destroying his dream of rampaging in the Chinese sky.

Before he first arrived at the Chinese battlefield, he was still so invincible that he even threw a war letter to the Chinese Air Force and opened a cruel war game.

But it turned out to be so fast, so fine.

And in the air battle over China, two dazzling stars flashed in the sky of China. Liang Zhihang, a second lieutenant of the Guangxi Air Force, bravely collided with the plane when both oil and ammunition were exhausted, and blood was spilled in the sky.

Chen Huaimin, a pilot of the 4th Brigade, also crashed into a plane and returned home with an injury after parachuting. So far, this 21-year-old soldier has hung up the lottery three times, shot down five enemy planes one after another, and has become the embodiment of China's cutting-edge air force.

The army was never willing to accept such a defeat, and even more crazy revenge came. And the Chinese Air Force did not back down, a tooth for a tooth!

In the sky, the blue light was already flashing, and the fire dragon was rolling. The sound of "coo-rattling" guns and cannons accompanied by a shrill whistling sound stirred the sky like porridge in a boiling pot.

Chen Huaimin fought calmly in the net of bullets and death.

After his friend Liang Zhihang died heroically, he seemed to be a completely different person. What was originally a handsome guy who was lively and neatly dressed has now become a stubble, raunchy weirdo.

The smile that used to be made is now as if it was sealed with lead, and a sentence rarely pops out. As soon as he got to the training ground, he gritted his teeth, was ruthless, and his eyes were spewing fierce lights.

Everyone in his team was afraid of him.

He was awarded the Order of the Cloud Commander of the 2nd Class by the Military Commission. He knew he was worth the price. In the sky, he has sent 8 little devil fighters into hell.

But he was not satisfied, not even satisfied. The 4th Brigade he was in is now a newcomer, and most of the comrades-in-arms who trained with him and went to the sky to kill the enemy together have lost tears from the sky and fallen. Especially his friend and his eldest brother Liang Zhihang, as soon as he closed his eyes, red light, a wreckage and a burning torso flashed in front of him!

A Type 96 bomber flashed past him to the upper right.

"Dog mongrel, where to run!"

The big, clumsy bomber, like a leper dog that had bitten him, made him sick and hated. He made a right turn and leaped, pounced under the enemy plane, and quickly pressed the opportunity to seize the plane.

Enemy aircraft exploded in volley. In a pile of debris, the wreckage fell in the night. A rare smile appeared on his face, and he whispered: "Liang Zhihang, the rabbit cub's debt has been settled today, you can see later, they can't run away from any of the debts they owe!" ”

After a while, another military destroyer was bitten by him. After a blue light, he clearly saw the pilot's head shrugged down. I don't know if he is worried or angry, he catches up with another shuttle, and the machine emits black smoke and falls spirally.

Chen Huaimin leveled the plane. At this time, he seemed to have finished a heart-wrenching event, relaxed, bloody again, he no longer had any burden, and he would earn a fight when he fought it. He was more excited, more crazy.

In the air, the shadows were still flying, the blue light was shining, and the cannon was rumbling. The smoke of gunpowder could not hide the light of Chen Huaimin's shot down of two enemy planes. The warriors of the 4th Brigade saw it and their courage was doubled; The crowd watching the battle on the ground saw it and was full of praise; When the group found out, they were furious.

Relying on the advantage of the number of planes, several planes quietly approached from all sides like ghosts.

Chen Huaimin bit another bomber. The enemy pilots dodged left and right in horror, stalling for time.

"Bear bag! Where is the majesty of the Imperial Army? He gritted his teeth and cursed viciously, and by this time he had noticed the enemy planes rushing on all sides, but he was not afraid at all, and still adjusted the angle little by little, catching the target, and slowly, the enemy plane entered the cross in his scope.

"Da Da", "Tom Tom Tom", almost at the same time, several strings of blue light burst out in all directions, and several tongues of fire flew out of the chamber of the gun. Chen Huaimin looked at the bomber in front of him with blazing flames and black smoke, and showed a last smile with difficulty. Blood. It was hot pouring out of his chest, dripping from the brim of his flying cap

The sky swirled, and the white sky and the verdant earth merged. There was a red mist in front of him, like a burning fireball.

The sky fell silent, but the sea of people watching the battle on the ground did not disperse. More than ten minutes is like a moment for them, and it is like an endless end. Boundless reverence, gratitude, wisps of sorrow and regret, like a sweet and bitter olive, gradually dissolved in their hearts.

They witnessed this unprecedentedly tragic air battle, and they saw 13 enemy planes rolling down from the sky, but they also watched Chen Huaimin and other pilots spill their blood into the blue sky and die tragically!
