Chapter 209: Shanghai 6
"Bastard, when did a group of fighters of this size appear at the airport near Shanghai?"
Shocked and angry, Somo Hachiro looked at the eight fighter planes that rushed towards him, and couldn't help but be frightened. The 19th Route Army, which had been unscrupulously bombing the ground before, had not encountered a team in the air until now, and the smooth battle made the Japanese pilots relax their vigilance. Although the Type 89 ships piloted by Shigehachiro had nine planes, the total number of fighters was only four, and due to the weakness of the air force of the Republic of China, the Japanese air force had a certain degree of light enemy, and the price of light enemy was naturally taken by surprise. After the Japanese Navy Special Marine Corps on the ground was attacked by Liu Zhanxiong, it could still rely on air firepower to remedy it, but at this time, the Japanese aircraft group looked at the eight fighters of Chen Honglu who were driving straight in the distance, where to find enough helpers? If they are bent on escaping, those 88 light bombers and 92 light bombers will undoubtedly become the living rake of the other side.
"The time has come to show the fearless spirit of the imperial soldiers, and you and I will drag the fighters of the Shina people together, and wait for the opportunity to retreat after the bombers of Ono-kun and others have fled!" Somo Hachiro yelled loudly at an eighty-nine ship attack next to him.
"Hai, let these people know how powerful the Imperial Air Force is!" Ono Shigeyama frantically piloted the fighter plane and rushed head-on with Chen Honglu's first plane.
"This idiot!" Somo Hachiro cursed in his heart, and hurriedly accelerated to catch up, and they were only four planes. It was already half less than enemy aircraft. The loss of another one is even more difficult to parry.
"The Emperor's Protection. Our reinforcements are coming! "Just as this group of destroyers was preparing to sacrifice their lives for the Empire, on the flanks of the fleet on the other side, six or seven planes came to reinforce it, which was the Empire's air force. Hachiro Somo and the others were all ecstatic.
"Damn, it's not a good time. Jiang Xingcheng, you take your team to meet the Japanese reinforcements for a while, hold them back, and wait for me to meet you after I finish off one or two enemy troops. "The good fortune of the enemy is naturally his own misfortune. Chen Honglu cursed, and then shouted at Jiang Xingcheng nearby.
"Don't worry, this little devil is not in my eyes." Jiang Xingcheng replied.
Chen Honglu nodded, no wonder Jiang Xingcheng was arrogant, as soon as the expert made a move, he knew if there was one, he was the same as Chen Honglu, he was a very good pilot, and shot down 3 enemy planes in the battle of Fengtian, only one less than Chen Honglu. At least in Chen Honglu's eyes. The Japanese plane, which rushed over, was no different from looking for death, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of reinforcements from the other side. He teamed up with Chen Honglu, and it didn't take long to eat those four fighters.
Compared with Chen Honglu, Jiang Xingcheng's fighting spirit in the face of superior enemy forces was high, and at this time, the hearts of the citizens who looked up from afar had just cheered again, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that since the appearance of the aircraft group of the Republic of China, the first team of Japanese planes scattered and fled. When the fighters of the Republic of China, which occupied a dominant position, were about to take advantage of the situation to attack, another group of Japanese fighters came and pressed back the numerical superiority of the Republic of China. But what made these citizens, ordinary people, and the soldiers of Liu Zhanxiong's 119th Brigade feel at ease was that in the face of the Japanese army's dominant aircraft group, the group of comrades-in-arms in the sky did not flee from the desert, nor did they leave them, exposing their skies to the shadow of the Japanese fighters. These heroic pilots drove their own cars in the air to fight the Japanese in a desperate fight.
Looking at the bravery of those colleagues in the sky, Liu Zhanxiong's heart was full of agitation, even if he was in a different faction, but the fearless actions of this air force team made him have a strong sense of belonging to the Republic of China.
Although the number of Japanese aircraft at this time was superior, but before the Zero World War was born, at this time it was only the early thirties, and the performance of the Japanese aircraft was only at the mass level. After the tragic air battle in Fengtian, Chen Honglu's pilots are already experienced in air combat and are close to the record of ace pilots. However, the quality of the Japanese pilots in front of them was relatively average, and although the two formations rushed over with great momentum, they did not show any signs of cooperation, and they were completely fighting alone.
When Ono's stunned young man wanted to seize the high position, Chen Honglu pulled the trigger and spilled two rows of bullets.
When the stunned Qing was complacent in order to seize the height, Chen Honglu had already manipulated the seat frame and swept an arc towards the enemy plane behind the stunned Qing Xiaoye. The fighter behind Chen Honglu had already climbed to a height higher than Xiao Ye, and suddenly swooped down.
How could this be, Ono panicked and manipulated the plane to jump down, intending to bypass the opponent's fierce killing moves. However, it slammed head-on into a few strings of machine gun bullets that Chen Honglu fired first.
The sharp bullet hit Ono's chest without any suspense, and Ono snorted in the air a few times, and his vitality passed quickly from his body. The eight or nine ships, which had lost their masters, swayed in the air for a distance as if drunk, and then plunged headlong on the ground in the distance, splashing a huge fire.
Whether it was the soldiers of Liu Zhanxiong's 119th Brigade or the citizens of Shanghai, the common people suddenly erupted in earth-shaking cheers when they saw that the fighter plane painted with the plaster flag logo was shot down.
shot down 5 planes, and now Chen Honglu is already the second ace pilot after Gao Zhihang. The other pilots watched with some envy as Chen Honglu quickly plunged into the relatively scattered formation of the Japanese military planes.
The performance of the fighters on both sides is relatively close, but the pilots of the Japanese Navy have no actual combat experience since their establishment, and the number of Japanese fighters has reached 11 with the reinforced detachment, but now it has been shot down by Chen Honglu, and the Japanese army's advantage is already very weak. The relatively scattered formation of the Japanese army, which had been emphasized by the instructors in the previous drill manual, was all chaotic in actual combat, and each fought alone. At this time, Chen Honglu's planes were two in a group, and when the front attack failed, the wingmen behind made up for it, or covered its flanks when it attacked. When attacking, it is vigorous and resolute, and when retreating, it is also on the defensive. In addition, when they saw a loophole, they drilled into the battlefield to drop bombs on the enemy's ground part, and more than two dozen planes strangled back and forth in the air. Although this kind of scene is still a gap compared with the Fengtian battle a few months ago, for the south, which has never seen a large-scale air battle before, this scale of air fighting is enough to shock people from the bottom of their hearts. Human beings have a history of thousands of years, and they can only use hoes, iron tools, etc. to dig in the land. Plough at sunrise and rest at sunset. However, in the past hundred years, human beings have been able to overcome themselves and gallop above the sky. (To be continued.) )
