Chapter 1131 1132 Sick Marshal

Wang Guangfu knew that he had been bitten by the Japanese fighter plane, so he could only grit his teeth again to control his plane and roll to avoid the pursuit of the Japanese plane. The German ME-109C fighter rolled a little faster than the Japanese plane, and he could quickly get out of the entanglement of the Japanese aircraft with this tactical maneuver.

BEHIND HIM, OZAWA NAKASA NATURALLY WOULD NOT LET GO OF WANG GUANGFU, WHO WAS WOUNDED AND READY TO LEAVE THE BATTLEFIELD, SO HE DROVE HIS OWN PLANE TO CHASE AFTER HIM, JUST BEHIND HIS KI-43 FIGHTER, TWO CHINESE ME-109C FIGHTERS RUSHED INTO THE FORMATION OF JAPANESE BOMBERS, LIKE WOLVES INTO A FLOCK OF SHEEP, JUST A DIVE SHOT DOWN A SLOW-FLYING DRAGON SWALLOWING BOMBER, AND THEN CALMLY SHOOK OFF THE PURSUIT OF JAPANESE NOVICE PILOTS.

The ballistic performance of the 20 mm caliber cannon equipped on the nose of the German aircraft is very good, and the key is that the damage ability is even more outstanding. The slow, unsturdy Japanese Dragon-Swallowing Dragon, like a thin-skinned bun, is simply a target for Chinese pilots to win their achievements.

Those inexperienced Japanese fighters have been entangled by the P-40 fighters operated by the Chinese Air Force at this time, and it is not too much to describe their current state as difficult to protect, let alone come to help the Dragon Swallowing bombers who are being chased by ME-109C fighters.

A moment later, the battle loss ratio in the sky turned out to be the advantage of the Chinese Air Force, and there were as many as 9 Japanese planes shot down, and most of them were big guys like dragon swallowing bombers. However, the five Japanese fighters have not lost since one was shot down by Wang Guangfu, and they have shot down three Chinese P-40 fighters and two ME-109C fighters. According to the results of the battle, although the Chinese pilots took advantage of it, if you carefully analyze it, it is still the Japanese side that has stronger combat effectiveness.

The remaining ME-109C fighter did not seem to be intimidated by the brutal air battle in front of him, and the plane calmly got rid of the entanglement of a Japanese plane, and then bit another Japanese fighter that was chasing the Chinese plane, and finished off the hapless Japanese fighter with a cold gun.

In the distance, Wang Guangfu was piloting his fighter jet to try his best to get rid of Ozawa Nakasa's entanglement, and he tried his best to really redeem his disadvantage. So Wang Guangfu gritted his teeth and turned his heart sideways, made a big circle, and circled his plane back to the airspace where the two sides were fighting. He didn't run out of ammunition, so he sped up and rushed towards a Japanese bomber that had fled.

The planes on both sides are getting fewer and fewer, and the time for the fight is getting longer. The Japanese pilots were still more sophisticated after all, and by this time they had already shot down two other P-40 fighters, chasing the downed score back to a score of 7 to 11. Once again, the Japanese plane seized its opportunity and bit the ME-109C fighter that had just attacked, and he opened fire so hard that the bullets flew sideways behind the Chinese plane.

Wang Guangfu piloted his wounded plane and rushed towards a Japanese dragon swallower, ignoring the Japanese plane behind him, and opened fire fiercely at his target, pouring all his ammunition on this enemy plane. The dense ammunition smashed the Dragon-Swallowing bomber into pieces, exploding in the air into a cloud of fireworks.

However, Wang Guangfu's fighter was also hit again by Ozawa Nakasa's plane behind him, and the tail of the plane was punched out of a series of holes. Wang Guangfu tried to change the flight attitude of the plane, but found that the plane seemed to be unwilling to respond to his joystick. So he decisively pulled open his cockpit and jumped out of his plane.

Just as Wang Guangfu jumped out of his plane, a P-40 fighter in the distance played at a high level and shot down another KI-43 fighter piloted by a veteran Japanese pilot. This was the third Japanese plane to be shot down, and the only remaining ME-109C fighter that the Japanese desperately wanted to kill had already burrowed into the clouds and left the battlefield.

The remaining four Chinese P-40 fighters saw Wang Guangfu parachuting and did not continue to fight, so they immediately turned around and began to leave the battlefield, leaving the Japanese planes helplessly chasing and leaving. They had come to hunt down the planes of the China Air Force, and as a result, the planes of the China Air Force had achieved greater results, leaving them alone here and feeling sorry.

3 KI-43 fighters were shot down, which was an unbearable loss for Nakasa Ozawa. Not to mention the fact that there were 6 bombers, and 5 KI-43 fighters piloted by novice pilots were shot down, and this additional price to pay. The loss of six bombers more than the Chinese army made it clear that the Japanese mission had failed.

Of course, on the other hand, the price paid by the Chinese Air Force is not small. Compared with Japan, these elite Chinese pilots still have precious fighter jets, and the Chinese side cannot afford to lose. The loss of 6 P-40 fighters is still within the tolerable range, but the loss of 3 ME-109C fighters is bad news that cannot be replenished for China.

Ace pilot Wang Guangfu was injured and parachuted, which is good news for the Chinese Air Force, but it is downright bad news for the Japanese pilots. Because most of China's victories were achieved by ME-109C fighters, the heavy firepower composed of 20 mm cannons and 13 mm machine guns gave Japanese pilots few chances to parachute out.

Moreover, the area where the two sides are fighting is controlled by China, so even if the Japanese pilots parachuted, they would be imprisoned for a long time, and they would never be able to go back and fly the plane. In this air battle, three Chinese pilots were killed, two pilots were wounded, and four returned safely to their units to continue fighting.

On the Japanese side, 49 people were killed, 3 were wounded, and 7 people, including the wounded, were taken prisoner. After Ozawa hurried back to the airport from which he had departed with the rest of the plane, those who were waiting for the news of his victory were stunned by the loss. After Ozawa parked his plane and ran on, he jumped out of the plane and walked into his headquarters, trying to compensate for his mistake by committing suicide.

However, his men held down his command knife and kept him from dying. The poor lieutenant was demoted to lieutenant for this operation, and then sent to fight the Americans in the bloody Pacific theater.

The air battle in Wuhan was the largest air battle in the Asian theater of the entire war, and the fierce fighting between the two sides lasted for five months. It was not until November 1939 that it finally stopped. The Chinese Air Force, relying on U.S.-aided P-40 fighter jets, has been vying with Japan for air supremacy near Wuhan, losing more than 200 fighters and bombers on both sides.

The Chinese theater has always been a bleeding wound on Japan's long front, consuming Japan's various war resources, which were not sufficient in the first place. Since the beginning of the war against China, Japan has lost more than 700,000 troops of various kinds on the Chinese battlefield. After the battles of Songhu, Wuhan, Beiping, and Shandong, the Japanese were still unable to fully occupy China, which they had planned to defeat within three months.

......

Of course, Japan's bloodshed in China was not just something Accardo expected, and Sickt toiled so hard in his later years to have such a day. At the very beginning of the battle known as the Battle of June 20, Accardo was summoning his beloved general in North Africa, Rommel, the invincible commander of the North African Middle East who had finally obtained his marshal's scepter in Egypt, but had finally collapsed from the devastation of illness.

Rommel, who had never eaten a meal on time, eventually returned to Berlin because of a stomach problem. He handed over the command of the forces in North Africa and the Middle East to Schellner and Féridik, and then lay down in a bed in the First Imperial Hospital in Berlin.

"Are you feeling better?" said Accardo, sitting on the edge of Rommel's bedside, smiling and asking his confidant. He was joined by Mercedes, the first lady of the empire, who was churning Rommel with her own hands, a gesture that flattered the Rommels.

"My Führer! I fell ill at this important time, and I really deserve your trust and cultivation. Rommel lay on the hospital bed, barely squeezing out a smile. He persisted for a long time before he collapsed in his headquarters, and if it were not serious enough to a certain extent, he would not have abandoned half of the war and returned home to recuperate.

Exactly like the other plane, this war maniac is madly in love with his commanding career. The direct result of forgetting to sleep and eat was that his stomach problems were greatly advanced. But fortunately, it seems that Germany's victory in North Africa and the Middle East is now decided, and there is no need for him to be a pinnacle.

"Well, your loyalty to me, and your ability, I know better than anyone else! At this time, you can recuperate in peace, and when your body allows, you will go back to the front and win for me!" Accardo gently patted the back of Rommel's hand and comforted him in a soft voice. After saying this, he looked at Rommel's wife again, and said, "Don't let Erwin read too many books, and supervise him to rest." This is the task I gave you, can I do it seriously?"

"My Führer, I will supervise Rommel's rest as you command. Rommel's wife nodded happily, and then looked at Rommel on the bed with a sad face: "Do you hear? I am ordered by the Führer to supervise you, and give me a good rest during the time I stay in the hospital!"

"Hahaha. Hearing her say this, Accardo and Mercedes laughed out loud.
