Although it was not his own specialty, as a lover of military history, Hu Weidong recognized its model as soon as he saw the captured aircraft, and naturally knew that although the Type 95 fighter was still considered a quasi-first-class level in 36 years, the congenital lack of speed of the biplane made it completely outdated in just two years. However, for the Red Army, which currently relies entirely on captured aircraft, it has no capital to dislike at all, so how to fully exploit its strengths and avoid weaknesses to maximize its value has become crucial

Biplanes are not comparable to monoplanes in terms of speed and acceleration due to the increased flight resistance caused by the bracket structure, but they also have their own advantages, which are unmatched maneuverability (or maneuverability in low-speed flight, to be precise). ）。 As the country that attaches the most importance to the maneuverability of fighters on Shijie, Japan developed a Zuihou biplane fighter, and the Type 95 fighter can even be said to be the most maneuverable Haode fighter in Shijie history, even the later invincible Zero aircraft cannot be compared. Therefore, as long as both sides use conventional tactics, the Type 95 fighter can completely defeat fighters more advanced than it, but the enemy is not a fool, relying on the speed advantage to play a blow and break away from the tactics is the king, so that the maneuverability advantage of the Type 95 fighter can not be brought into play at all.

Hu Weidong came up with a solution to this, that is, to design a gun for the Type 95 fighter with an effective range much longer than the 7.7mm machine gun currently used by the Japanese fighters

However, no matter how high Hu Weidong's attainments in artillery and ammunition are, he cannot immediately conjure up the finished product, and the time for research and development and trial production and inspection adds up, and it will take several months to wait until the official production is as fast as possible, which is obviously not able to respond to emergencies, but fortunately, Hu Weidong soon discovered another huge advantage of the Type 95 fighter, that is, because of the greater lift of the wings, the ultra-high practical ceiling and climb speed, of which the former has reached an astonishing 11,500 meters. In history, this could not be surpassed until the end of World War II when the American Mustang fighter was replaced with a British Merlin engine, while the Japanese monoplane could reach 10,000 meters to the sky, and this height difference of 1,500 meters was enough to make the monoplane attacking on the back unable to hit, and even if it hit, it could not hurt itself and be invincible, and the excellent climbing ability of the Type 95 fighter made this tactic of seizing the high point more operable.

Since there is this advantage, then it is natural to make good use of it, and after the discussion between Hu Weidong and several other outstanding pilots, a special tactic with the typical characteristics of "diving attack" and "pulling up and disengaging" was born. When the Type 95 fighter encounters the enemy plane, it must first use the advantage of the climb capability to quickly pull up to seize the high position, and when it is more than 1,000 meters higher than the enemy plane, the Type 95 fighter formation will immediately dive at full speed to launch a fierce attack on the enemy, regardless of whether the dive attack is successful or not, as long as the enemy plane begins to pull up, then all members will immediately stop attacking and pull up again, so as to use the advantages of the practical ceiling and climb speed to make the enemy plane can only be beaten but unable to fight back, and if the own side does not want to fight because of the exhaustion of ammunition and other reasons, It is also possible to climb to a height of more than 10,000 meters and swagger away, and the enemy has no way to do it

This tactic was originally designed by Hu Weidong for the Red Army fighters after the full-scale outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, but if it were to meet the Japanese army aviation units, which are also equipped with a large number of Type 95 biplane fighters, it would have no meaning. However, the Japanese Navy was blessed with unique conditions to completely eliminate biplanes earlier than the army, but instead gave Gao Zhihang and others the opportunity to test the new tactics in advance. …,

It stands to reason that due to the relatively slow speed, if the enemy plane does not want to turn around and flee in response, the Type 95 fighter will not be able to catch up, but that is for the advanced monoplane fighters in the middle and late stages of World War II, and the speed of the Japanese Navy's Type 96 carrier-based fighter that Gao Zhihang and the others are now facing is only 10% faster than the Type 95 fighter, and this gap can be completely made up by relying on the acceleration of the dive. So the planes of the six devils were miserable, they couldn't hit and hit, couldn't catch up, couldn't escape, and couldn't escape, coupled with the absolute disadvantage in numbers, all of them were shot down by the Red Army fighter brigade in a short time, and Gao Zhihang, who was bent on avenging Shen Chongyu and them, was red-eyed, and swept away the two devil pilots who had parachuted out, and was punished once after he went back

And because Gao Zhihang deliberately led the devil's fighters to a high altitude, exceeding the effective range of the anti-aircraft guns of the Japanese ships, the Japanese troops on each ship could only watch their planes being shot down one after another, while the Chinese's planes returned safely and unharmed, not to mention how depressed they were

Due to the success of camouflage tactics and the sacrifice of twenty-four bomber crews, the Red Army bomber squadron dealt a heavy blow to the invincible Imperial Japanese Navy at the cost of twelve bombers, and a total of two light aircraft carriers, one destroyer and eight giant troop carriers were sunk in front and behind, with a total displacement of more than 200,000 tons, and two other troop carriers were severely damaged, one heavy cruiser was injured, and the navy suffered nearly 3,000 casualtiesThe number of casualties was 2,157, and the army officers and men on the troop carrier were even more miserable, because the army knew how to water relatively little, and the navy must have rescued its own people on the two sunken aircraft carriers first, resulting in a large number of army officers and soldiers being drowned alive because of the untimely rescue, with a total of more than 20,000 casualties, of which more than 15,000 were killed, including the current division commander of the Fifth Division, Lieutenant General Lin Gui, who was also buried in the sea

In addition to the direct losses, because of the various problems exposed in this battle, the contradictions between the Japanese navy and army have further intensified, to the point that they are incompatible, and the negative impact on Japan may be even greater. The contradictions between the two factions were so great that the Japanese War Department, which no longer trusted the navy, would rather try to persuade the emperor to allow the army to send troops to fight through Korea and enter the three eastern provinces than to help it transport troops and escort troops, and the navy could not ask for it, although they also hated Hu Weidong, the famous general of the Red Army
