Chapter 416: Bomber vs. Fighter Fighter

If God gave Wada Dazuo another chance, he would definitely not order an attack on Hainan's bomber group, or at least not attack the equally dense bomber group in a dense formation.

They would definitely be a little farther away from the Hainan bomber group, and if these bombers were left alone, he wouldn't mind going up and biting them like hounds.

But when these bombers, each with a dozen machine guns, were gathered, they could still run as far as they could, when there were not as many as these bombers.

Before this attack, if someone said that bombers could fight fighters, Wada Daisa would definitely come forward and slap him in the face.

But if anyone said that now, he would not object to it, because he had really experienced this nightmarish scene.

When Wada Dazuo ordered an attack on the bomber group that was fleeing towards the Qiongzhou Strait, sixteen Type 97 fighters swooped down from a high altitude towards the group below.

They thought they could take out one bomber in front of them with just one dive, and then turn the nose of the plane and do the same dive again, and they could take out the twenty-four bombers.

But they were wrong, all the Japanese fighter pilots today are wrong, the bomber group in front of them is not lambs to the slaughter at all, they are a bunch of man-eating monsters.

When Wada Daisa led sixteen fighters to pounce on the bomber group, he suddenly saw a twin anti-aircraft machine gun sticking out of the head and tail of the twenty-four bombers on the upper, middle and lower floors.

When he saw that the formation of these twenty-four bombers was just enough to reveal every anti-aircraft machine gun, Wada Dazuo's heart suddenly tightened, could it be that the machine guns in the bombers in front of him could really be fired.

With a constant instinct for danger, Wada slowed down the fighter's speed in the final sprint, and at the same time changed his flight attitude to slide sideways downward.

When Wada Osa had just changed the attitude of the plane, he saw that the twenty-four bombers had only fired the four anti-aircraft machine guns at the front and rear ends of the bombers. A total of 96 anti-aircraft machine guns simultaneously fired at the fighters who were diving downward.

What is a rain of bullets, what is cross-fire coverage, what is a machine-gun fire net, this is.

"Knock knock!" The muffled sound of gunfire, characteristic of large-caliber anti-aircraft machine guns, rained down on sixteen fighters like a life talisman.

"Boom." Four Type 97 fighters were blown up in the air, and two fighters were injured and fell to the ground in black smoke.

Six of the sixteen fighters were destroyed in just one shot, and the remaining ten immediately scattered in all directions. Everyone desperately escaped from the machine-gun array of the bombers in front of them.

Wada and the ten fighters who survived by chance gathered again in the rear of the bomber group, looking at the frightened pilots, and Wada Daisa believed that only by continuing to attack could they regain their lost confidence.

Although the first attack failed, it was only because of the first time that we faced this kind of machine gun formation composed of bomber groups, and everyone suffered such a big loss because they had no experience, and now a whole six fighters were shot down, but it also allowed Wada Dazuo to find a way to deal with the Hainan bomber group.

Wada Daisa ordered all the planes to disperse and attack the bombers from the upper and lower ends, and as soon as Wada Dazuo gave the order, the Japanese pilots, who were extremely vindictive, immediately began to attack the bomber group from all directions as if they were crazy.

These fighters were like mad dogs, starting to shoot from a distance of several kilometers, and their tactics were also successful, because the bombers were large and densely formed, so many bombers were immediately shot one after another, and soon two bombers fell down with black smoke.

Qiao Zhengwei and their bomber were also attacked, and dozens of bullets hit their No. 18 bomber, although the plane could still move normally, but their captain was unfortunately seriously injured.

Qiao Zhengwei, who had never piloted a bomber independently, could only take over the captain's position and began to fly the plane in a hurry, and the No. 18 bomber watched as it slowly broke away from the bomber formation and fell to the ground.

Qiao Zhengwei shouted on the radio that the integrity of the formation must be guaranteed in order to return to Hainan safely, and at the same time controlled the No. 18 bomber not to lose control and fall.

The frightened Wada Dazuo saw that the first wave of attacks had little effect, only killing two bombers, but he lost six fighters, and he looked at the Hainan bombers in front of him, and his eyes were about to erupt with fire.

So when he saw that a bomber marked No. 18 was gradually detaching from the bomber group with black smoke, Wada Daisa sent two Japanese planes to destroy No. 18 bomber.

He led eight other planes to continue to look for holes in the bomber group, so he didn't believe that their fighters would be defeated by the bombers, even if these bombers were all machine guns mixed up and down.

The No. 18 bomber, which was slowly lowering its altitude, was not in serious trouble, and after a short panic, Qiao Zhengwei had completely mastered the skills of piloting the bomber independently.

On the radio, he repeatedly stressed that no matter what, it was necessary to ensure that the formation was neat, and only in this way could a dense firepower network be formed, and only in this way could it hold out for fifteen minutes and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Therefore, although two bombers were shot down and they broke away from the group, the other 21 bombers still insisted on flying in a dense formation towards the Qiongzhou Strait according to Qiao Zhengwei's method.

When Qiao Zhengwei found that two more Japanese fighters were chasing after him, he did not panic. He ordered all machine gunners not to skimp on bullets, as long as they kept firing would put pressure on the enemy.

So the five machine gunners, controlling ten machine guns, began to shoot frantically at the pursuing Japanese fighters, at this time it depends on whose marksmanship is more accurate and whose luck is better.

Because in this kind of high-speed flight, even if the objects on both sides are large, it is not easy to hit the other side.

Fortunately, Qiao Zhengwei was lucky, and after only one round of fire, their machine gunners killed another fighter.

However, they themselves were badly damaged, two machine gunners fell, and one of the engines on the left side of the bomber was hit and shut down, and now they have only three engines.

And this hot Japanese plane, after passing the No. 18 bomber, came to a large elevation maneuver, wanting to pursue the Ouroboros again.

Qiao Zhengwei immediately called the navigator to his side and asked him to temporarily help him hold the rudder, while he personally came to the tail-facing firing compartment, and it was the machine gunner of this firing capsule who was killed just now.

Qiao Zhengwei pulled the fallen machine gunner down from his seat and sat down himself, then he set up the twin machine guns and began to wait for the Japanese machine to dive and attack again.

The Japanese plane really swooped down again from the sky, and Qiao Zhengwei at this time had no blue sky, no white clouds, and no vast land in his eyes, only Japanese fighters roaring in the distance.

The Japanese fighters opened fire from a long distance, and the bullets hit the No. 18 bomber again, and a few bullets flew past Qiao Zhengwei's side.

But Qiao Zhengwei was unmoved, when the Japanese fighter entered the range, Qiao Zhengwei pulled the trigger in his hand, at this time he felt that he was integrated with the bomber, with the bomber's tail slightly swinging, the figure of the Japanese fighter was set in the scope.

"Click." The roar of the twin machine guns rang out, hundreds of rounds of ammunition were poured out, and the Japanese fighters that were diving, were smashed into a huge spark in the air.

In this way, Bomber No. 18 actually killed two fighters that were pursuing him. Qiao Zhengwei returned to the seat of the main captain, and while he was making contact with the Hainan base, he drove the plane to reduce the flight altitude and flew away from the battlefield in the direction of Haikou.

At this time, the battlefield battle in the air was still going on, and because the Japanese planes were too scattered and attacking from all directions, more than 20 bombers could only defend against the arrival of enemy planes in one direction from each floor.

This defensive formation was very effective, and almost at the same time that the Japanese attacked the bombers, they were also attacked by four or five anti-aircraft machine guns from different places.

Although both sides were flying at high speed, there were too many machine guns in the bombers, and they didn't need money to shoot, and almost every time the Japanese planes attacked, although the bomber formations suffered losses, the losses of the Japanese fighters were even greater.

After four rounds of attacks, the Hainan Air Force had lost six bombers, but the Japanese had lost 12 of its 16 fighters.

Wada Daisa was already going crazy, he couldn't believe that their fighters had not been able to beat the bombers.

But he couldn't help but believe the facts in front of him, but just when Wada Daisa was about to launch another sneak attack from the tail of the bomber with the only four remaining fighters, something happened that made him even more depressed.

I saw that the seventeen bombers in front of me, which were also full of holes, suddenly accelerated forward with all their might, and then Wada Dazuo was surprised to find that the Type 97 fighters he was piloting could not catch up with these clumsy bombers.

However, Wada Daisa was not in a hurry, because he knew that the time for all planes to fly at the fastest speed was very small, because the engine could not stand the full acceleration for a long time.

It's just that Wada Daisa didn't understand a little, seeing that only four of his sixteen fighters remained, and the enemy's bomber group still had a full seventeen.

Sixteen fighters were no match for them just now, and now they only have four fighters, why did the Chinese bomber group flee instead?

Just when Wada Daisa was suspicious, Wada Daisa suddenly found that there was another large group of planes flying rapidly in the clouds ahead.

Needless to say, this must be the arrival of a plane from Hainan to reinforce it. Wada Dazuo also understood that the sudden departure of the Hainan bombers from the battlefield turned out to be to make room for the fighters behind.

Although Wada Daisa thought that his piloting skills were first-class, he was not stupid enough to deal with dozens of enemy new forces with four tired fighters, so Wada Daisa just shouted "return home" on the radio. ”

The first to turn the nose of the plane and flee the airspace of the war.
