Chapter 1087: The First Battle of the Air Force

At the headquarters of the 46th Army, the communications staff officer was constantly reading out the latest telegrams from the front line in a loud voice, so that the army commander Chen Hong in front of him could make the latest ruling at any time.

"Report to the army commander, the commander of the tank regiment Li Wentian called, the assault team has completed the division of the Soviet army. At the same time, it was divided into two and launched surprise attacks on the two flanks of the Soviet troops, expanding the occupied area and compressing the Soviet positions......"

"Report to the army commander, the latest radar shows that more than one regiment of Soviet aviation units have invaded our territory and are coming to the battlefield for reinforcements. According to preliminary estimates, we will arrive at the battlefield in twenty minutes......"

"Lao Maozi Air Force is here......" As soon as the staff officer's words fell, Commander Chen Hong couldn't help but ask rhetorically.

Because from the beginning of the whole battle to the present, the only thing that Commander Chen Hong was worried about was that a large number of Soviet air forces suddenly came to the battlefield and caused a lot of casualties to his troops from the air.

Now, his worries have finally come, and Chen Hong, as a military commander, is relieved. Because, at this moment, even if the Soviet Air Force arrived at the battlefield in time, it would not be able to cause any damage to himself who was mixed with Lao Maozi. More importantly, just now, the central authorities clearly mentioned in a telegram to themselves that once the Soviet Air Force attacked, our Chinese Air Force would also be dispatched to intercept it, and Lao Maozi's plane would never be allowed to run rampant in our airspace over China

After a short period of contemplation, Commander Chen Hong, who had a serious face, directly opened his mouth and ordered: "Since Lao Maozi's air force is here, we can't let them run in vain. Command the radar to immediately detect the specific number of Lao Maozi's air force. At the same time, the rear Air Force 013 Division was ordered to immediately attack and intercept the Lao Maozi fighters. ”

"Finally, in order to avoid possible accidents, two infantry divisions were ordered. Launch an attack on the old Maozi who has been divided as soon as possible. As long as the enemy and our armies are completely strangled together. Even if the Lao Maozi Air Force breaks through the air defense line of the 013th Division of our Air Force, there is nothing to do with us on the ground. ”

"Yes, Commander......"

Rumbling cannons. Under the cover of armored combat vehicles and tanks, two main divisions, almost 20,000 soldiers. It was like a pack of wolves smelling blood, screaming and pounced directly on the more than 10,000 Soviet Red Army, which had been completely divided.

At the same time, a sharp siren sounded at the field military airfield, which was about 10 kilometers away from the rear of the battlefield, directly piercing the silence of the night and echoing over the airfield.

"Fighter regiment, ......assemble immediately," a loud shout rang out on the empty runway of the airport.

"Brush brush brush ......" A dull running sound, followed by a sound on the airport runway. A fighter regiment. More than 30 combat pilots stood together in high spirits, waiting for the review and orders from their superiors.

Because the news of the large-scale invasion of the Soviet Red Army was only spread in the top echelons of the central government. They are located at the border field airfield. Including the division commander, if it weren't for the sudden emergency call just now. I don't know at all: On the border defense line less than 15 kilometers away from me, tens of thousands of troops of China and the Soviet Union are engaged in a decisive battle that can shock the world since the successful conclusion of World War II.

Seeing the dozens of recruits in front of them who had not really experienced the battle, and did not know the brutality of the battle. Wang Jun, who is the commander of the 013 Air Division, immediately thought of the phone call between Liu Hua, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, and himself.

"Comrade Wang Jun, this is the first battle of our Chinese Air Force against the Soviet Air Force, and it has a very huge impact on the morale of our Chinese army and the morale of our Chinese Air Force. Therefore, for the honor of the Chinese military and the honor of the Air Force, we can only win and not lose in this sortie. Now, on behalf of the Central Military Commission, I would like to order your subordinates to immediately attack and destroy all Soviet air forces that have invaded our country's territory and fight the first battle of our Chinese air force against the Soviet Union. ”

The huge fleet of the Soviet air force was almost impossible to defeat in the eyes of itself and others.

It should be clear that the current Soviet Air Force is not only manifested in the number of combat aircraft, but also in the quality of pilots. The entire Soviet Air Force, almost every pilot, fought in World War II to a greater or lesser extent. Even many pilots, after being tempered by World War II, directly became the aces of the Soviet Air Force.

And the troops standing in front of him, except for a few regimental-level commanders who have real combat experience. The rest, whether they are ordinary pilots or grass-roots commanders, without exception, are all novices who have only experienced more than one year of flying experience and have no actual combat experience after graduating from military academies.

Such an air force composed of rookies, once it meets Lao Maozi's ace pilot. It is conceivable that the entire air battle will soon turn into a one-sided massacre of its own subordinates by the Soviet Air Force.

However, as Liu Hua just said, this air battle is not only the aggressor, but also the backbone of the Chinese soldiers and the morale of the Chinese Air Force. Even if you fight all your troops, you must achieve the final victory. Because what he represents is not only the 013th Division of the Air Force, but the entire Chinese Air Force.

Thinking of this, on the other end of the microphone, Liu Hua, the vice chairman, was silent, quietly waiting for his response. Wang Jun, the commander of the 013th Air Division, immediately showed a thick and resolute look on his face, and assured loudly.

"Report the chief. I, Wang Jun, promised that as long as there is still one pilot alive in my 013th Division and one fighter plane can take to the air, I will definitely not allow the Soviet Air Force to invade our airspace. Please rest assured that the chief, please rest assured that the central government..."

Of course, Liu Hua, as the vice chairman of the Military Commission, of course knows the true strength of the 013th Division of the Air Force. Hearing Wang Jun's assurance, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although he knew that the sortie of the 013th Division of the Air Force was tantamount to sending him to death, Liu Hua, who had been guaranteed, knew at least one thing that the morale of our Chinese Air Force had not been lost. Then, he nodded very satisfied and asked.

"Division Commander Wang, I know the strength of the 013th Division of the Air Force. In this way, in order to guarantee the final victory, what do you ask, just ask, I, as the commander-in-chief of the campaign against the Soviet Union, promise to satisfy you in every possible way. ”

"Thank you, chief......" Wang Jun said with a grateful face.

"Chief, you also know that my 013th Division has only one fighter regiment, and they are all novices, so I am worried about the lack of troops......"

Although the two were a few kilometers apart, they couldn't see each other's expressions. However, from the other party's answer, Liu Hua could still clearly feel the tremor of the other party's voice. Hearing the other party's request, he almost didn't think about it, and directly assured with a confident face.

"You can rest assured of this."

"Your fighter regiment only needs to drag the Soviet Air Force in the air for half an hour, and the next two fighter regiments will rush to the battlefield. How about it, Master Wang, is there any pressure. ”

"It's good to have follow-up troops...... Please rest assured, on behalf of the 013th Division of the Air Force, I, Wang Jun, assure the Central Committee that the task will be successfully completed, please rest assured that the Central Committee will ......"

The phone call with Vice Chairman Liu Hua lasted less than a minute. However, it was this minute of phone call that directly caused Master Wang Jun to have a huge pressure and feel the strength of the burden on his shoulders.

However, as a soldier, no matter how much pressure you have, you have to withstand it.

After a quick glance in front of him, a few hours later, it was possible to kill dozens of his subordinates on the battlefield. Master Wang Jun did not hesitate, and said directly in a deep voice.

"Comrades, I have just received the news: just five hours ago, the shameful Soviet aggressor, suddenly launched an attack on our Wehrmacht and invaded our country. In less than a few hours, with superior equipment and suddenness, it broke through dozens of kilometers into the territory of Inner Mongolia. In the face of the aggression of the Soviet Red Army, as a soldier, everyone told me, what should we do? ”

"Destroy them, drive them out of China, and the blood debt will be repaid with blood......"

Those who were able to join the Chinese Air Force, without exception, were all young people with a certain level of knowledge. And such young people, under the influence of patriotic thoughts, are all angry young people who value the national honor the most. As soon as Division Commander Wang Jun's words fell, the roars of dozens of pilots began to sound at the airport.

Wang Jun was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He said directly: "Everyone said very well, in the face of the invader, we have only one way, and that is to destroy it." However, as pilots in the Air Force, everyone should be aware of the huge gap between friend and foe. It is very likely that after this air war, many of us here will never see the sun tomorrow again. However, what I want to tell you is that we are soldiers, and since we are soldiers, we must shoulder the responsibility of defending the territory and be ready to sacrifice at any time. And now, as soldiers, it is time for us as soldiers to show our courage and fight a bloody battle against the invaders..."

After some encouragement, seeing the faces of dozens of angry young people in front of him, slowly revealing a determined look, Wang Jun no longer had the slightest hesitation, and directly opened his mouth to order.

"Now I order, give everyone five minutes, and each of you will leave a suicide note at the station. If anyone dies in this air battle, we will send this suicide note home to everyone. Remember, there's only five minutes to go, so I hope you hurry. Five minutes later, we immediately attacked, and we did not destroy the Soviet air force that had invaded China, and we would not return to the division. ”

"Comrades, for the sake of the whole country, for the honor of the Chinese Air Force, for the honor of the soldiers, now I order, immediately start the operation ..."

......A series of deafening engine roars began to sound on the runway of the airport, and under the guidance of the navigation lights, one after another fighter planes, piloted by dozens of pilots, almost without the slightest hesitation, directly broke through the air and began to hover over the airport.

A fighter regiment, together with the corresponding reconnaissance planes, totaling 40 fighters, formed a huge flight formation directly over the airfield and flew mightily toward the Sino-Soviet border.
