Chapter 152: Houyi Plan

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" clouds: Yao Shi ten days and out, Yao Yi shot ten days, and fell Wojiao.

"Chu Ci Chapters and Sentences": Yao Shi ten days together, the grass and trees are scorched, Yao Ming Yi shoots for ten days, in the middle of the nine days, in the middle of the nine black are all dead, fall its wings, so leave it for one day.

The myths and legends of ancient China are strange and strange, whether it is Diyao Dayi, or Taikang Houyi, in short, Houyi is famous for shooting the sun. When Long Xiaotian submitted the reformulated aerial scorched earth plan and asked His Majesty to name it, Zhong Yi blurted out: Houyi plan.

The strategic bomber unit and Hou Yi are doing the same job, and both look at the "day" unpleasantly, and if they want to do it, the difference is that one is to shoot and the other is to use bombing.

In order to implement the Houyi Plan, a total of six new field airfields were built between Taichung and Keelung Port, including a sub-base vehicle deployed in Taichung, which was also the first time that the sub-base was deployed to the Taiwan region. All kinds of forests have been appointed as the governor of the East, and the sub-base is the governor's palace. Of course, the territory that he, the governor of the East, can now govern, is only limited to Taiwan.

"Want to manage more? Go for it yourself. Japan, Korea, and the Ryukyus have many places. These were His Majesty's exact words on the phone, and in this way, the Governor of the Whole Province was more energetic, urging the navy to attack the Ryukyus every day.

The first to attack, of course, was the bomber unit. The Royal Air Force Bomber Command, headquartered in Taoyuan, took off 192 H40-A Helleyes and 384 H37-B Cerberus from eight airfields in the first operation, escorting 64 J40-A Denyu fighters and 128 J36-C Wyvern fighters. A huge land-based fleet of nearly 800 planes will join the two oceanic fleets in the waters off the Diaoyu Islands in southeastern Taiwan and use the ultra-long search range of the navy's shipborne radar to increase the security circle for the air force.

This move is not only to escort the air force, but also to force the combined fleet to fight a decisive battle. There is a powerful navy, but it can't cover the landing of the army on the Japanese mainland, Zhang Zheng is crazy! Now that we have finally obtained the naval base in Taiwan, it means that the decisive moment is coming.

The four Marshal-class aircraft carriers put the J37-C Sea Dragon carrier-based fighters on the deck before leaving the port, the anti-submarine helicopters on the cruisers in the fleet also formed a formation to go out for reconnaissance, and the destroyers with the largest number of escort ships were also all under radar, especially the new magnetic anti-submarine radar, and they were searching for the few vortex-class submarines that Japan had urgently manufactured.

In the face of such a large offensive force, Japan's shore-based air force was the first to react. Hundreds of fighter jets took off from numerous military airfields on the island of Ryukyu to intercept the Royal Air Force fleet. But these planes are varied, with old-fashioned propeller planes accounting for a large proportion. The Japanese jet fighter Zero was partially deployed on the east coast, and only about 100 of them could be deployed in the Ryukyus.

The Navy's radar had already spotted the Japanese planes, and the bomber planes began to climb in altitude, while the Draco and Wyvern increased their speed and advanced to meet the enemy. The Navy was not willing to be lonely, and the Sea Dragon carrier-based aircraft on the four aircraft carriers catapulted and took off, ready to join the air battle.

The melee of 1,300 planes may not be the largest air battle in history, but it must be the bloodiest. The RAF's bomber fleet did not encounter much of a threat, and the Zero was too few in number, mostly entangled with the Dracos and Wyverns. It is difficult for the old Japanese propeller aircraft to catch up with the six engines and the speed of more than 800 kilometers per hour in the eye of hell, not to mention the 10,000-meter altitude of the eye of hell, which makes it daunting.

However, the Cerberus had some damage, but it was not worth mentioning compared to the Japanese planes. Soon after the start of the war, more than 200 old Japanese planes began to fall like dumplings, and most of the volleys that exploded were hit by the yellow-eyed penguin air-to-air missiles of the Tenryu fighters. Even if the pilots of the Tianlong fighters used yellow-eyed penguins in actual combat for the first time, the hit rate could still reach more than 80 percent, and the Zeros that could quickly dodge were all in the air. Because of Sumitomo Metal, the Zero even surpasses the Wyvern in performance when diving and turning.

With too many fighters concentrated in a small air combat area, the sky was quickly dyed gray, and the streamers dragged by the cannons weaved into dense fishing nets, pilots should not only pay attention to their opponents, but also prevent stray bullets from friendly planes from hitting them, and even avoid colliding with other fighters when rolling and climbing.

"It's an absolute scuffle, and to survive, you need not only superb flying skills, but also luck!" After the air battle over the Diaoyu Islands, Liang Tiancheng, a pilot who shot down eight Japanese planes, said. Leung Thiam Shing was the first ace pilot in the Royal Air Force who was not a Red Alert soldier, and his ancestors were from Guangdong, and later moved to Nanyang. After the empire defeated the Dutch colonial rulers and established the Nanyang Governor's Palace, he was admitted to the Royal Air Force University, and recently graduated to join the Royal Air Force, and was selected to be the first pilot to fly the Draco fighter.

Among the 26 fighters shot down by the Royal Air Force in this battle, including five newly graduated cadet pilots, three of whom successfully parachuted and were rescued by naval submarines.

Although Zhong Yi is working hard to train ordinary pilots, the Royal Air Force is still the main force of Red Alert Air Force fighters, they have good psychological quality and excellent piloting ability, coupled with the leading performance of fighters, soon Japan's old fighters were cleaned up, the Japanese army's plan to use old planes to stir up trouble was broken, and more than 200 excellent pilots were taken in vain -- the waters of the Diaoyu Islands are the world of the Royal Navy's submarine force, and Japan's advanced submarine vortex class is too small in number. Unable to fight against the Tempest-class sea wolves of the Han Empire. The Japanese plane hit by the yellow-eyed penguin was of course a "lighter in the air", ending the journey with a dazzling fireball, and the Japanese pilot who was lucky enough to parachute after being hit by the machine gun was also unable to escape death, and the sea wolves were like a school of sharks smelling blood, frantically predating. The crew sat on the backs of the submarine that had risen to the surface, holding DH39-B submachine guns like fishing, aiming at the Japanese pilots who had not had time to cut their parachutes.

The chase in the sky continues, the floating smoke is like the clouds in the heavenly palace, and the brilliant fireworks that flash from time to time are like the nine days shot down by Hou Yi, and at the last moment of life, the most brilliant light blooms.

The appearance of air-to-air missiles has made there be a lot fewer crashes that smash into the sea in a scream of black smoke, and the mission of the yellow-eyed penguin is to detonate, not shoot down, which makes the submarine crews who have not had the opportunity to shoot for a long time a little dissatisfied.

The bomber group had no shadow, and the besieged Japanese Zero group also began to give the order to retreat, but the empty imperial army gathered in the dragon group was in hot pursuit, and the Zero with less than 30 planes left was also destroyed by the yellow-eyed penguins chasing after the tail in the process of retreating.

The Tenryu, Flying Dragon, and Sea Dragon fighters, who had a limited range, began to return home, and the submarine floating on the surface of the water saw that it was not lively, and quietly began to dive, and their target was the Japanese transport ships that traveled between the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea. So, where are the targets of the bomber groups that have broken through the interception?
