Chapter 108: Nasty Tail
It's bad luck for a bomber to encounter an enemy fighter, and it's a tiresome thing to be tracked by a reconnaissance plane! Since the Japanese Type 97 Command reconnaissance plane originally flew at a lower altitude than his own plane, Lin Jun was able to clearly observe the reconnaissance plane from the firing port from the moment he lay down and operated the ШКАС machine gun.

It can be seen that the Japanese pilot is a veteran, and he has been keeping his plane and the bomber at a distance of about 800 meters, one to the left and the other to the right, probably taking pictures unhurriedly.
"Comrade Andrey, have you always maintained the original course and speed?" The voice of the captain, Lieutenant Verajov, came through the headphones.
"Keep the original course and speed unchanged, let it follow if it likes to, it's a big deal to blow a lot of cold wind."
"Yes, Comrade Andrei."
Now Lin Jun is really a little angry, the Japanese plane is estimated to come from Zhangjiakou: it is estimated that it is more than 400 kilometers away from Zhangjiakou, and the endurance range of the Japanese plane is as high as 2400 kilometers, as long as it is willing, it can follow it for at least two hours. The taste of lying on your stomach blowing cold wind at the firing port is not pleasant, and if you really have to lie on your stomach for two hours, you can freeze yourself to the point that your limbs are numb.
"Gotta figure figure out."
"Major Zhang, I'm Andre."
"Yes, General Andrey."
"What do you think is the biggest reason why this Japanese reconnaissance plane came to this area?"
"Judging from the current movements of the Japanese North China Dispatch Army, it is very likely that they are preparing for the attack on Baotou and the Yikezhao League area."
Zhang Zhiqiang's estimate is very accurate, and Baotou fell in October 1937.
"I thought so too. I guess it will be very surprising to come across us, as there have been no planes from us in the area. Major Zhang, is there an airport in Baotou? ”
"Yes, but it was a small airfield, and our heavy bombers (both China and Japan at that time classified medium bombers such as DB-3s in the heavy ranks) could not take off and land."
"You don't have to land, just make a landing. Can you contact Baotou? ”
"No problem, I have that frequency."
Zhang Zhiqiang already understood what Lin Jun meant: If they pretend to land in Baotou, the Japanese troops attacking Baotou will definitely think that there are air forces to support Baotou, and the situation at the Baotou airfield in their control has also changed, which will definitely have some impact on the deployment of Japan's North China Dispatch Army, and the tail behind it is estimated that they will think that they have discovered the movements of these two mysterious bombers and return to their home -- this is definitely a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
Five minutes later, Zhang Zhiqiang had already contacted Baotou Airport, and he explained in code that he would feign landing at the airport, and after receiving an answer from the ground, the two DB-3s began to descend in altitude.
Baotou had already appeared in the field of vision, but the Japanese reconnaissance plane still followed it unhurriedly.
Lin Jun scolded himself for being a pig's head at this time: If it really landed in Baotou, the Japanese reconnaissance plane would definitely see what the current situation was at Baotou Airport.
told Zhang Zhiqiang his thoughts, which made this *** major also embarrassed - the two of them are called stealing chickens and rice, and they waste fuel in vain.
When the Japanese planes saw that the two bombers began to slowly climb in altitude again, they shook their wings provocatively, and shortened the distance a little, needless to say that the two Japanese pilots had already seen through Lin Jun's tricks.
Lin Jun couldn't see the provocative actions of the Japanese machine from his position, but Vladimir above his head could see it clearly. Hearing the report of the turret shooter on the back of the aircraft, Lin Junqi's seven orifices were smoking, but there was no way!
"When did Lao Tzu suffer from this kind of bird gas!" I'm used to flying a fighter jet, and I really haven't experienced this stuffiness.
Lin Jun scolded a few words to himself, and it reached everyone's ears through the intercom in the plane.
"Comrade Andrei, if I change positions with the wingman, I am half sure that I will be able to knock down that Japanese plane."
"Vladimir, it's already out of range of machine guns." The 7.62 mm machine gun was no match for a single engine aircraft seven or eight hundred meters away, and the effect of a cannon bombarding mosquitoes was similar.
"Comrade Andrei, Vladimir is a well-known marksman in the army, and I think the plan is feasible." Verajov said.
"Alright, let's switch places with the wingman. Vladimir, you aim for me and hit again, knock it down and I'll give you credit, and I'll award you a Red Star when you go back. ”
"Yes, Comrade Andrei."
Vladimir was the number one machine gun shooter in the entire bomber unit aiding China, otherwise he would not still be a turret shooter with the rank of deputy platoon commander. This time, Captain Kidalinsky equipped Lin Jun with elite soldiers and sent the best crew in his hand.
Verajov informed the wingman, and the two DB-3s slowly switched positions, and the Japanese reconnaissance plane appeared behind his plane.
"Everyone, pay attention, fasten your seatbelt, I will count down to 321 and will open the airbrake to shorten the distance as much as possible." Verajov is going to come by surprise, "Verajov, show our housekeeping skills!" You ready?! ”
"Yes, Captain!"
"Okay, listen to me, three, two, one!" Verajov turned off the small throttle and lowered the airbrake at the same time. Everyone on the plane felt a sharp drop in the speed of the plane, and the distance between the two planes gradually decreased. At the moment of deceleration, Verajov pulled the trigger of the machine gun, and the ШКАС aviation machine gun fired a flood of bullets at the Japanese plane, which had not yet reacted, at a rate of 30 rounds per second.
Captain Kameda Hayashizo and Captain Dohida 21st Class Cao were carrying out a reconnaissance mission on ground targets today, and the two Soviet-made bombers they encountered on the way surprised them so much that they thought that the Soviet bomber unit had been transferred to this area, so they followed closely all along. The Japanese troops in North China had learned about the Soviet Air Force for aiding China, and they trained all pilots in identifying Soviet-made aircraft. However, the two bombers in front of him are models that are not in the data, but it can be seen that they are in the style of Soviet-style aircraft, and in order to find out their movements, Kameda Rinzo has been driving the plane to follow.
Kameda Rinzo has always been very confident in his own skills, keeping the plane and the bomber at a distance of about 800 meters so that Dohitaji in the back seat can take pictures carefully, and the two bombers have also "cooperated" and have been flying in the original course and speed. When they were about to arrive in Baotou, the landing preparations made by the two planes surprised Kameda Linsan: the bomber unit stationed in Baotou was an important piece of information! Kameda Rinzo immediately asked Private Cao Chang, who was in the back seat, to inform the headquarters via the airborne radio.
But to the surprise of the two, after a while, the two bombers began to climb again, "Haha, Tufeijun, those guys are really a little stupid!" ”
"Kameda-kun, such a naïve plan can only be thought of by these stupid pigs."
The two Japanese were smug at seeing through their opponent's strategy, and in order to show their disdain for their opponent, Kameda also shortened the distance between him and the bomber, and waved his wings in defiance.
The two Japanese felt a little strange about the two bombers' repositioning, and they guessed what tricks the two bombers would have.
Suddenly, Kameda felt that the plane in front of him was slowing down sharply, and at the moment when he was about to make a move, a dense number of machine gun bullets were shooting at his plane.
The sound of bullets hitting the propeller and the engine kept coming, and Kameda Hayashizo reflexively pulled the lever to the side to get rid of it, but the machine gun bullet chased after it like an eye, and hit the exposed belly of the machine with a thousand holes.
"Quickly report to the command the true movements of enemy aircraft!" Kameda Rinzo is worthy of being a warrior of the empire, and the first thing that comes to mind after discovering that the plane has been hit is to report the true movements of the enemy plane. In fact, this Imperial warrior is also stupid, if it weren't for the trick of ridiculing his opponent for being a little mentally retarded, this situation would have been reported a long time ago.
"The transmitter has been broken!" Totokitaji's voice was a little desperate.
Vladimir, worthy of being the best machine-gun shooter in the bomber group, began to fire violently at the moment when the DB-3 slowed down, and the fuselage shaking and reverse impact from the sharp deceleration did not affect his aiming and shooting. The distance between the two planes was shortened from 700 meters at the beginning of the fire to more than 500 meters, and Vladimir used three long points to complete the long chain of 10 sections of 25 rounds, and more than one-fifth of the machine gun bullets hit the Japanese plane.
"Captain, speed up!"
Hearing Vladimir's call, Verajov retracted the airbrake and increased the throttle, and the DB-3 slowly accelerated under the powerful power output of the two M-85 engines.
"Well played! Vladimir, well done! Lin Jun couldn't help but applaud the turret shooter, and he was definitely worthy of the title of sharpshooter if he could accurately hit enemy planes at this distance.
Now the haunting Japanese reconnaissance plane appeared in Lin Jun's field of vision, but now it was falling down with black smoke, and he couldn't find a trace of the arrogance just now. Here Lin Jun is cheering, Kameda Lin San and Tsuchihi Tian Er in the reconnaissance plane are uncomfortable, Kameda Lin San feels that the plane is out of control, and the black smoke produced after the engine cylinder is broken is pouring into the cabin.
"Skydive, skydive!" Kameda Rinzo, who was still laughing at his opponent just now, no longer had the arrogance to open the hatch and jump out like a dead pig. It wouldn't even have a chance to regret it, and if it hadn't been so arrogant and so close and provocative, Vladimir wouldn't have knocked it down.
"Major Zhang, inform Baotou that two Japanese pilots have parachuted and ask them to organize their arrest."
"Yes, General Andrei."
