More than 1,000 fighters, armed with AK-47 assault rifles and even squad machine guns, shouted and rushed down the hill and soon began to shoot at the little devils.

At this time, the little devil's chariot was basically lost, the little devil's chariot became a pile of scrap metal, and the only dozen or so tanks left would soon be cleared by the helicopter gunships in the sky.

And the infantry of the little devils is now in a panic, and the strong performance of the helicopter gunships has completely crushed the morale of these little devils, and the little devils saw a large number of soldiers rushing over, and the little devils did not resist, but scattered and fled for their lives.

The battle quickly turned into a one-sided massacre, with the cooperation of the helicopter, in less than half an hour, the remaining more than 1,000 little devils were all wiped out, and those who wanted to run failed to run away from the pursuit of the gunship, and were almost beaten into a sieve by the 12.7mm machine gun on the gunship.

*********

On the second day of the battle, more than 200 Mustang fighters and 20 "Super Fortress" fighters of the Chinese Air Force took off from Baoshan Airport and Ruili Airport on the China-Burmese border to carry out retaliatory bombing of Lashio, an important town in northern Burma.

When Zhang Yunfei learned that the little devil had actually ambushed his infantry regiment, Zhang Yunfei immediately issued an order to carry out a two-day large-scale bombardment of Lashio, an important town in northern Burma where the Japanese army was heavily garrisoned.

When the huge fleet of the Chinese Air Force flew over Lashio, the Japanese troops stationed in Lashio had not had time to react, and the Japanese troops stationed in Lashio had five divisions. Together with the rest of the auxiliaries and arms, there were nearly 200,000 Japanese troops in total.

The strategic location of Lashio is very important, as Lashio is not only the capital of Shan State in northern Myanmar. It is also the closest city in Myanmar to the Chinese border, and Lashio is also the starting point of the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

Lashio also has an airport, a railway station, and the transportation is also relatively developed, and the little devils know that once Lashio is occupied by the Chinese army, the Chinese army can not only drive straight into Mandalay, but also. The Chinese army can use this as a base for advancement. Some strategic materials can be transported here in a steady stream, and Chinese military planes can also be stationed here to directly threaten Mandalay.

Lashio Airport.

This is Little Japan's foray into Southeast Asia. A medium-sized airfield built here after the capture of Lashio. According to the size of the airport. Hundreds of aircraft can be stationed here, and in its heyday, Lashio Airport was once stationed with more than 100 aircraft.

With the transfer of many planes to the Pacific theater and never returned, coupled with the surrender of Japan. The planes at Lashio Airport have not been replenished, and now, there are only about 30 planes at the empty Lashio Airport, and it is still dominated by an old-fashioned Nakashima aircraft, with almost no Zero fighters, and in addition, there are a few transport planes of little devils.

Of course, the Japanese troops at the Lashio airfield also knew that the Chinese army was moving south along the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and that the vanguard of the Chinese army was less than 50 kilometers away from Lashio, and the Chinese army had already begun to exchange fire with the Japanese army in Lashio.

Naturally, the Lashio airfield also entered a combat state, and the Japanese troops at the Lashio airfield were also on standby at any time, ready to take off at any time to fight the Chinese army.

A major general in charge of defense at Lashio Airport is convening a meeting of a group of little devil officers in his airport headquarters.

Major General Little Devil did not know that his airfield had been listed as one of the first targets of the Chinese Air Force's large-scale bombing of Lashio.

This time, the Chinese army dispatched so many planes, a full 10 squadrons of Mustang fighters, plus 20 "Super Fortress in the Sky" bombers, and the first round of bombing will hit several targets in Lashio, including not only the Lashio airport, but also several large fortifications built by the Japanese army outside the city of Lashio.

In the command room of Lashio Airport, a group of little devils who are holding a meeting do not appear to be highly morale, in the face of the powerful Chinese Air Force, these little devils know that they may not be opponents, but since the Chinese army has begun to attack Lashio, they will have to fight with the Chinese Air Force sooner or later.

However, the strength of the Chinese Air Force, these little Japan have long heard of it, and even its own most advanced Zero fighter is no match for Chinese fighters, not to mention that it is only equipped with some relatively old Nakajima aircraft, and the number is not much, only in the early thirties.

A group of small Japanese officers were in a meeting, and suddenly, a terrible siren sounded at the airport, and a radar deployed at the Lashio airport finally discovered a group of Chinese planes less than 100 kilometers away from the airport.

The radar of the Japanese army at Lashio Airport is relatively backward, and it can only detect a group of aircraft within 100 kilometers of itself, or a single aircraft within 50 kilometers of itself.

Considering that Lashio Airport is relatively close to China, the Supreme Command of the Japanese Army in Southeast Asia has deployed one of its only radars at Lashio Airport.

Hearing the terrible alarm, all the little devil officers who were in the meeting stood up, and the little devils were shocked, listening to the movement of this alarm, it should be a large number of enemy planes attacking.

Sure enough, soon a little devil officer hurriedly ran in, and he didn't even have time to shout the report, so he immediately said anxiously: "Your Excellency, Major General!" A large number of planes were found flying towards us, probably a fleet of Chinese troops. ”

Hearing this, Major General Devil, who was in charge of the Lashio Airport, also looked anxious, and immediately ordered all planes to take off to meet the enemy, and Major General Devil knew that since the Chinese aircraft group was attacking in a big way, an air battle between himself and the Chinese Air Force was inevitable.

After giving the order, Major General Little Devil was faintly worried that he might not be the opponent of the Chinese Air Force, his own planes were only in their early thirties, and the anti-aircraft firepower on the airfield was also relatively weak, except for the four two-pack 25-mm anti-aircraft machine guns, there were only a dozen anti-aircraft machine guns.

Thinking of this, the little devil Major General looked helpless.

Little Japan's planes were ready to take off, and before they could form an air formation, the little devils found that a large number of planes were flying towards them, which were a formation of 20 "Super Flying Fortress" bombers and two Mustang fighters.

20 "Super Flying Fortresses" are loaded with aerial bombs, and the mission is to destroy the little devil's airfield and the defenders near the little devil's airport, while the two Mustang fighter squadrons are not hanging any bombs, and the mission of the Mustang fighters is to escort and duel with the little devil's fighters.

Soon, the air battle was carried out at a high altitude, and because of the anti-aircraft fire at Lashio Airport, both the "Super Air Fortress" bombers and the Mustang fighters flew at an altitude of seven or eight thousand meters.

Seeing the Chinese aircraft group hovering at high altitude, and those huge bombardments of the Chinese aircraft group seemed to be about to start dropping bombs, the little devil's Nakajima fighters were forced to climb and engage in high-altitude combat with the Chinese aircraft group at high altitude.

At an altitude of 8,000 meters, it is already the limit of the Nakajima Type 97 aircraft, and many little devil pilots feel that they are short of breath and a little hypoxic, but the little devils have barely had time to adapt, and a large number of Mustang fighters have begun to dive and shoot.

The Mustang fighter group has been hovering at high altitude, and seeing the little devil's group climb up with difficulty, many soldiers smiled slightly, and immediately dived and shot fiercely at the little devil group.

The air battle began immediately.

At the Lashio airport, some Japanese officers were paying attention to this air battle, and when they saw that the air battle was at such a high height, these Japanese officers were also hanging in their hearts, especially the little devil Major General, whose face was very unsightly.

In the sky, the sound of intensive shooting kept coming, it was a large number of Mustang fighters were firing fiercely, each Mustang fighter was 6 12.7mm machine guns, Mustang fighters were shooting, the firepower was very terrifying.

On the ground, quite a number of Japanese officers who were concerned about the air battle could still see a clear idea through the telescope, and when they saw the Chinese fighters taking the lead in firing, three or four of their planes were soon shot and fell to the ground.

"Yaga!"

Although the little devil knew that he had little chance of winning in this air battle, he was shot down three or four of his planes in less than half a minute from the beginning, and the little devil Major General still could not accept it.

The little devil pilots who were fighting with the fighters were caught off guard as soon as the two sides started the war, and they were shot down several planes, and these little devil pilots were also trembling in their hearts, and some of them were a little pale.

However, soon, the little devil's fighters were shot down one after another, and the two sides were quite different in terms of the number of planes and performance, and the air combat immediately became a one-sided trend.

The pilot of a Mustang fighter plane, who had just shot down a Nakajima 97 fighter plane with a little devil, let out a long roar of joy, and immediately set his sights on a Nakajima plane not far away.

The soldier piloted his own Mustang fighter, and with a beautiful and skilful tactical maneuver, soon came to the back of the Nakajima 97, and the Nakajima plane was unaware.

"Second !!"

While firing, the soldier silently thought in his heart that this would be the second plane he shot down, and the six machine guns on the Mustang fighter plane fired a salvo, and soon, the Nakajima Type 97 plane was carried to the ground with open flames and thick smoke.

Seeing the downing of the second plane, the fighter let out another cheer, but soon, the fighter found himself flying towards him with two Nakajima planes behind him.

This soldier was also lucky, and accidentally found the Chinese plane behind him, if he was a little lucky, he didn't find the two planes that sneaked up on him, it would be miserable.

Seeing this scene, the warrior thought to himself, careless, he got carried away just now.
