As a cadet, this is not the first time that Li Keyong has flown randomly. There were not many aerial reconnaissance sorties, but there were quite a few training sessions. But he was not satisfied, and always wanted to fly independently as soon as possible, especially the two light and fast Eagle fighters.

"Sir, the next Eagle is yours, right?" Li Ke always felt itchy in his heart, and inquired about the manufacturing progress of the aircraft, hoping to have his own fighter as soon as possible.

"Airplanes belong to the state, and there is no distinction between yours and mine." Gao Fengge said lightly: "Only the best pilots will have the opportunity to gallop into the blue sky and kill the enemy to serve the country." ”

Li Ke smiled wryly, but he was not reconciled, and continued to ask: "Sir, do you think the Eagle fighter is superior or inferior compared to the Type 96?" ”

During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese devils had a total of two kinds of aircraft with 96, one was the 96 type ship fighter, and the other was the 96 type land medium attack aircraft.

As can be seen from the name, the Type 96 shipboard fighter is the main opponent of the Chinese Air Force. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Type 96 entered China as a land-based fighter, and repeatedly fought with the Chinese Air Force's **** three, Boeing P-26, I-16 and other fighters, and the Chinese Air Force suffered heavy casualties.

However, as Japanese fighters continued to penetrate deep into the Chinese mainland, the range of the Type 96 became insufficient, and not only was it somewhat difficult to escort the ship, but it was often counter-dominated by the Chinese Air Force. Therefore, this defect led the Japanese Navy to develop the successor of the Type 96, which was later the Zero fighter.

Gao Fengge smiled and said, "The maximum horsepower of the Ninety-Six Type is 690 horses, which is slightly higher than that of the Eagle Type, but it is an all-metal fuselage, and it is greatly inferior to the Eagle Type in terms of weight. According to my flying experience, the Eagle is better than the 96 in speed and maneuverability. Moreover, the 7.7mm machine gun of the Type 96 is definitely inferior to the 12.7mm heavy machine in terms of power. ”

"Then it must be stronger than the Ninety-Six Style!" Li Keyong was more excited, and his voice was raised a little, "I really look forward to having a fighter plane as soon as possible, and being able to fight devils in the blue sky as soon as possible." ”

Gao Fengge pondered for a moment, and calmly admonished: "The performance of the aircraft is only one factor to win, and the quality and level of the pilot are the most critical. Well, and reasonable, advanced formations and tactics. ”

"I understand." Li Keyong nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will study hard and practice hard and not embarrass you." ”

"What shame on me?" Gao Fengge smiled and said: "You don't know how to make a fool of yourself, when it comes to the assessment, you are the same strict with everyone, if you can't do it, you can't do it, but you don't dare to joke about the precious fighter." ”

As he spoke, the plane approached Suxian again, and Li Keyong put away his thoughts and began to carefully observe the situation on the ground.

……………..

The same sunny weather, the same plane in the air, but in Xikou, Zhejiang, a tragedy was staged.

With a sickening buzzing sound, a group of Japanese bombers suddenly flew to Xikou, a beautiful mountain town, Chairman Chiang's hometown. There are no factories and mines, and there are no troops stationed here, so it does not have any strategic significance.

Bombing indiscriminately, diving and strafing, the Japanese devils were going berserk and committing cruel war crimes once again.

Chairman Chiang's former residence, Feng Ho Fang, and Wenchang Pavilion, the villa where he and Song Meilin lived when they returned to their hometowns, were in ruins, like the homes of many ordinary people. The people of the town, including Chairman Chiang's family, were screaming and struggling in pain amid the loud bombing of enemy planes.

Mrs. Jiang Fangliang's Chinese teacher Huang and six others became innocent souls under the Japanese bomb. Chairman Chiang's ex-wife and ******'s biological mother, Mrs. Mao, struggled to get up from the hospital bed and fled amid the roaring explosion.

Mao Fumei is Chairman Jiang's original wife and ******'s biological mother. Although he divorced Chairman Jiang due to the marriage of Jiang and Song, he did not leave home after the divorce, and still lived in the Feng Ho house of the Jiang family in Xikou and fed the old lady Wang. In the minds of the Jiang family and Jiang himself, the status has not decreased, and the actual treatment is still the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family.

When Ms. Mao Fumei ran to the big wall of the back house, she was caught in the dive of an enemy plane and dropped bombs, the courtyard wall collapsed, and Mao was buried under the wall. After the enemy plane left, people pulled her out from under the wall, only to see that one of her legs was blown off and put aside, her belly was cut open by bullet skin, her intestines flowed to the ground, and her flesh and blood were blurred, which was unbearable to see.

At this time, Chairman Chiang was holding the second Nanyue Military Conference in Hengshan, Hunan, and the bad news came, and the emotional impact on Chairman Chiang can be imagined. In Chiang's view, the Japanese army's move was undoubtedly taking revenge on him, the commander of the Chinese* army, and undoubtedly to dig up the ancestral grave of his Chiang.

Chairman Chiang gritted his teeth in anger, but in front of the generals, he tried his best to hide his pain and anger. He sent a telegram to his eldest son, ******, in Jiangxi Province, to rush home to attend to the funeral, while he continued to preside over military meetings in Nanyue.

At the end of the meeting one day, Chairman Chiang was able to be alone at his residence. At this time, his blood and qi rose, his eyes were red, and grief and hatred surged into his heart together. He began to construct a shopping rush in his head! This thought became stronger and stronger, and he really wanted to give an order to the war zones immediately, and devote his old money to fight the Japanese army to the death.

Finally, he was so impulsive that he couldn't control himself, and turned around and called someone to call "Little Zhuge " Bai Chongxi.

There was not much time, Bai Chongxi came, and Chairman Jiang reviewed with Bai Chongxi in his office about the 39 years of the Japanese army's attack on Nanchang, Changsha, and Zao, as well as the tragic scenes of the bombing of Chongqing and Chengdu, and decided to launch a nationwide counteroffensive, named the Winter Offensive!

"Commission, as for the Japanese army to attack Guinan, strike at our country's international communication lines, and threaten the rear of the southwest, I think this operation can be attributed to the winter offensive." Bai Chongxi made this suggestion at the right time.

The Japanese army secretly assembled the 5th Division, the Taiwan Mixed Brigade, and the 5th Fleet in Yulin Harbor at the southern tip of Hainan Island, waiting for an opportunity to attack Guinan. This information has been secretly reported to the Military Commission by Yang Tianfeng, and Bai Chongxi attaches great importance to it after knowing it, Guangxi is his hometown, and he must strive to keep it.

However, Chairman Chiang was still on the sidelines and hesitant about this, and wanted to wait for further confirmation of the news. It wasn't until Bai Chongxi united with Li Zongren and claimed that he would lead the children of Gui Province back to his hometown to resist the attack of devils, that he relented.

It is impossible to let the Gui troops return to their hometowns, the Fifth War Zone, the Ninth War Zone, and the Dabie Mountain Base Area, all have Gui people, and when they are competing with the Japanese army, where can they leave?

Chairman Chiang only transferred four divisions of the 38th Group Army to the south and ordered the Fourth Theater to tighten its vigilance, which obviously did not satisfy Bai and Li. (To be continued.) )
