On this day, Tie Ning led the team to appear in the sky above the battle again, and after more than 20 consecutive sky battles, he hoped to meet Shigeru Oshima again, and Shigeru Oshima was also very eager to meet Tie Ning. But by mistake, the two never met. Today, the two finally met together, and the enemies were very red when they met. On the fuselage of the two-person fighters, the number of five-pointed stars shot down by the fighters shows the special identity of the two. Since Shigeru Oshima was piloting a Zero fighter, Tie Ning fell into passivity as soon as the two sides fought.

The piloting skills of the two sides were equal, Tie Ning drove the fighter plane to get rid of in front, and Shigeru Oshima chased behind. Tie Ning made several difficult moves, but did not get rid of Shigeru Oshima's tracking. With a burst of heavy artillery fire, the fuselage shook Tie Ning from a distance and realized that it had been hit. Soon smoke was thrown from the tail of the plane, and Tie Ning climbed as high as he could and ordered the planes to retreat. Shigeru Oshima finally avenged the last shot down, and when he was satisfied, he found that the fighters of the Eighth Route Army had retreated, so he ordered the team to return.

At present, the Eighth Route Army is getting stronger and stronger, and its air combat skills are advancing by leaps and bounds. Shigeru Oshima is a highly skilled and excellent aerial fighter, and he feels the growing toughness of his opponent. In today's continuous air battles, the number of pilots under his command is decreasing day by day, and it is very difficult to shoot down one of the opponent's fighters. If it weren't for the excellent performance of the Zero fighter, air combat would hardly be advantageous. For a long time, the Imperial Army Corps had been the dominant force in the Chinese theater and had no opponents, and the Imperial pilots were familiar with diving and strafing vehicles, but aerial combat was almost blank.

As an elite of the Imperial Army Aviation, Shigeru Oshima is very clear about the current situation of the Army Aviation Force, especially the Army Aviation Unit stationed in Chinese mainland, although some pilots have flying hours of several hundred, but the experience of aerial combat is almost zero. For a long time they were too comfortable and hardly had any combat missions. Even bomber sorties do not need fighter escorts at all, and even if they do, they are ground attacks. For this general situation, Shigeru Oshima can be said to be anxious.

The rookies under his command have been recruited from the north one after another, and in order for them to become masters of air combat, they must go through brutal aerial combat before they can grow up. However, due to the unfavorable ground rescue, the pilot's losses were very serious, which in turn put the pilot's heavy psychological baggage. Shooting down the ace pilot of the Eighth Route Army today will not only avenge his own arrow, but also greatly boost the morale of his subordinates. Nowadays, there are several ace fighters of the Eighth Route Army, which makes the pilots under his command fearful, and they almost dare not engage their opponents.

Shigeru Oshima had to reverse this situation, so he took to the skies every day to boost his men's confidence in air combat. Today, Shigeru Oshima finally met the opponent of his dreams, and he chased after him. The two sides fought almost exhausted the time of delay, and the moment he shot down the enemy ace pilot, he used almost all his strength. Shigeru Oshima knew in his heart that if the other party also piloted the Zero fighter, it would be difficult to say who would kill the deer. Thinking of this, Shigeru Oshima's smug mentality has decreased a lot.

Tie Ning piloted the smoke-emitting fighter plane to climb high and fly south quickly. In less than a minute, the engine stalled, and the fuselage began to lose balance and descend rapidly. Tie Ning had no choice but to open the cabin cover and jump out, in order to prevent the Japanese pilots from attacking him, he did not open the parachute immediately. About 1 km above the ground, Tie Ning pulled the paracord. This is how training is done in peacetime, the purpose is to avoid being detected and attacked by enemy pilots.

The white umbrella flowers opened, and a patch of green came to the face. In the woods on the ground, Hao Yi, the head of the special operations regiment, happened to lead a detachment to operate in this forest. "Report to the head of the regiment, open the parachute so close to the ground, it must be our pilot!" A subordinate reported. Immediately organize a rescue. The team had to act quickly. At this time, a member of the team ran over from the east side to report: "Report to the regiment commander, there is about a squadron of Japanese troops in the east, and apparently they have also found the pilot who parachuted." ”

"1 group, 2 groups to block!" Hao Yi decisively ordered. In less than 10 minutes, a dense gunfire rang out on the east side, and this kung fu iron condensation was brought to Hao Yi. "Report, I'm Tie Ning, the leader of the 1st Flight Group of the Eighth Route Army Flying Regiment!" "Didn't expect our air combat heroes to also be shot down!" Hao Yi sneered with a sneering face. Tie Ning was speechless, "Comrade Tie Ning, heroes also have times when they go to Maicheng, joking with you, I am Hao Yi, the head of the special operations regiment." "You are the famous Captain Hao!" Tie Ning was immediately excited when he heard this.

"Cover the pilot's retreat to the south!" The team quickly searched and advanced south. After a while, the covering group caught up, "Regiment leader, the devil didn't follow the pursuit, this doesn't seem normal." "The leader of Team 1 who served as cover reported to him." Stop moving forward! Hao Yi suddenly ordered, looked at everyone's confused expressions and continued: "Team leader 1, tell me more about the situation of your sniping!" "Commander, the devil search force is indeed a little abnormal, they did not launch a fierce attack, but defended and blocked it on the spot!"

As soon as the words of the 1st team leader fell, a sharp soldier who was opening the road on the south side ran over and said, "Report to the regiment commander, Japanese troops have been found on the south side." "We may be surrounded, the situation is critical! Squad Leader! "Here!" "You lead two snipers to cover the breakthrough of the Iron Brigade Captain, and I will lead the detachment to attract the Japanese army." "Regiment Commander, I don't agree with you to cover, or I will lead the detachment to cover, and you rush out with the Iron Captain." "Bastard, carry out the order!"

"Commander Hao, I want to fight with everyone, I can't be a deserter!" "Captain Tie, the Chief of the General Staff has ordered, to save you at any cost, I am carrying out the order, and now you must carry out my order!" After Hao Yi finished speaking, he led his subordinates to the east. "Captain Tie, in order to rescue you, how many good brothers have we lost, what are you still pretentious, change your clothes!" Soon, Tie Ning followed the team leader and other 4 people to the west.

About 10 minutes later, there was a dense burst of gunfire from the east flank, apparently with an exchange of fire on the east flank. "Report to the squad leader, Japanese troops have been found on the west side!" A sniper who was scouting on the west side returned to report. The captain of the detachment said calmly: "Hide immediately, and don't expose the target until you have to!" "Concealment is their forte. A few minutes later, a group of Japanese troops outflanked the east side in search formation towards a position where the gunfire was dense. After the Japanese soldiers passed, the four of them quickly broke through to the west. Two hours later they had turned southwest, but the gunfire in the woods was still roaring, interspersed with explosions.

The detachment leader stopped and looked up in the direction of the gunshot, a painful expression on his face. A sniper's voice choked up: "The regiment commander let us cover this guy's breakthrough to protect us, but the regiment commander ??????。 The other sniper raised his eyebrows coldly, and he was about to attack Tie Ning. The detachment leader hurriedly stopped: "Captain Tie, you saw that in order to rescue you, our special operations regiment has never suffered such losses. We have no other requirements and hope not to see you on the ground! ”

The Japanese troops in the woods temporarily stopped attacking, and Hao Yi led the 1st detachment to repel several fierce attacks by the Japanese army. They were surrounded by 10 times the number of troops, and it was impossible to break through. Because the woods played a role in curbing the efficiency of the Japanese attack, coupled with the strong armament of the small detachment, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties and did not dare to launch a rash onslaught. "Regiment commander, the Japanese army has about 3 squadrons, and we are running out of ammunition, so it is impossible to hold out until dark."

Hao Yi wrapped a bandage around his arm and said: "Send a report to the base, our department will not be able to break through, and we will fight until the last moment!" "Brothers, save ammunition and destroy as many devils as you can. The bullets ran out, and we attacked last. A few hours later, Hao Yi ordered the codebook to be burned and the radio station to be smashed. The Japanese troops outflanked them from all directions, and the team members jumped up and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese soldiers, and the wounded pulled grenades??????。 ”

In the headquarters of the Xiaoshan base, Ouyang Jian's face was very ugly. Mu Shixiong's eyes were a little red, and he came over and said: "Under the cover of 3 special combat members, Captain Tie encountered the 2nd Corps receiving detachment and was successfully rescued. 10 minutes agoHao Yi's radio station lost contact! Mu Shixiong couldn't go on! Ouyang Jian closed his eyes and held back the grief in his heart and said, "Order He Long, increase the combat detachment, and launch a large-scale attack on the Japanese search force!" ”

Three days later, Tie Ning returned to the base, with the trust of his special operations comrades, Tie Ning led his team to continue to fight tenaciously with the Japanese planes, and in two days, Tie Ning shot down 4 Japanese fighters, including two Zero fighters. On this day, Ouyang Jian was not in the base, but went to Ruijin Field Airport. At dusk, Ouyang Jian, Zhu De, Peng Dehuai, US Major William, etc., stood on the airport and looked southwest, what were they expecting?

The afterglow of the western sky faded, and a roar could be heard in the sky. I saw 6 huge planes coming into sight. Six U.S. B17 bombers flew over the airfield. The B17 bomber circled twice over the airfield, and then began to land at a reduced altitude. According to Ouyang Jian's request, the United States decided to send six new B17 bombers to the Chinese battlefield to participate in the war, considering that the deadly threat of Japanese fighters to the Jiangxi airfield had weakened.

The B17 bombardment aircraft are divided into ABCDE type, and the B17 bombardment fighter that went to the Chinese battlefield this time belongs to the E type, which can carry out all-weather strikes. The data of the B17E bomber are: 4 engines, take-off power 1200 horsepower. The maximum speed is 512 kilometers per hour, the ceiling is 11,156 meters, and the maximum range is 3,218 kilometers. The wingspan is 31, 63 meters, the fuselage length is 22, 49 meters, and the height is 5, 84 meters.

The capacity of the B17 bomber magazine is: up to 26 100-pound bombs, 16 300-pound bombs, 12 500-pound bombs, 8 1000-pound bombs, and 4 2000-pound bombs. Taking into account the Japanese army's ability to defend itself, bombs of less than 500 pounds were used in this attack, which was intended to saturate the attack.
