It's not that Taro Sakamoto doesn't know this. From the very beginning, he knew that "Zero War" cannot be bound by missiles.

But Taro Sakamoto was helpless.

This is not only because of orders. If it is just an order, Sakamoto will not pay attention to it. He has always believed that life is more important than orders... If there is no life, how can orders be carried out?Especially pilots, and pilots of the Navy, can't be like those fools in the Army!
The reason why Sakamoto Taro wants to execute this order is because it is also in the interest of "Zero War".

Although this was his first fight with "La 5" and it didn't take long, it was only ten minutes since the start of the battle.

But experienced, he has made a judgment on "La 5" within these ten minutes. He believes that this is a fighter with better performance than "Zero War". The force is evenly matched with "La 5", it is entirely because the Imperial Aviation has "evasion tactics" to take the lead, and on the other hand, the quality of the pilots of the Eighth Route Army is not good enough to give full play to the combat effectiveness of "La 5".

In time, if the Eighth Route Army finds a way to restrain and evade tactics to make the X2 play a role again, or if the pilots grow up and become more effective in actual combat, then "Zero War" will no longer be able to fight against it.

From this point of view, the imperial aviation should destroy the enemy in a state of development, otherwise it will be too late.

At this time, Taro Sakamoto didn't know that the Eighth Route Army had established a "La 5" production line to produce this fighter.

However, Taro Sakamoto's idea is actually correct, because the development of aviation combat effectiveness is not only the number of fighters, but also the quality of pilots.

If the devil pilots can kill the Eighth Route Army pilots batch after batch in time, then the pilots sent by the Eighth Route Army to the sky will always be rookies with poor quality, so no matter how many fighters the Eighth Route Army has, the devils will always have an advantage in the air.

Conversely, if the Eighth Route Army pilots cannot be suppressed and cannot be killed in time, the Eighth Route Army pilots will grow up batch after batch and eventually form a crushing trend against the Imperial Air Force.

but……

What can be done to cause these Eighth Route Army air teams to suffer heavy losses?
Relying on "Zero Fighter" is definitely not enough. As I said before, the speed advantage of "La 5" makes it impossible for "Zero Fighter" to use its flexibility and the quality of pilots... Air combat is often like this, In the face of absolute speed, any tricks are futile.

Then, there is only one way, and that is to bomb the temporary airport so that the Eighth Route Army Air Force has no airport to land.

To bomb the temporary airport, the safety of the missiles must be guaranteed.

Therefore, it is worth sacrificing some "zero battles" to protect the missiles. Once the airport is blown up, all losses can be recovered!
Considering this aspect, Sakamoto watched the "Zero Wars" being blown up in various "accidents". Although his heart was bleeding, he still gritted his teeth and ordered: "Everyone, hold on, as long as the bombing The enemy's airport is the time for us to turn defeat into victory!"

"Yes!" The pilots of the Sakamoto team responded loudly.

The sacrifice of "Zero War" did play a role. Fifty "man-operated missiles" were attacked by fighter planes of the Eighth Route Army, and finally there were more than a dozen left.

This is quite remarkable. The "man-operated missile" is not only slow, but also unable to maneuver and dodge. It can almost be said to be a target standing in the air, especially since the warhead of this thing is equipped with [-] kilograms of explosives, and the engine is refueled at the back. , there is another pilot lying there in the middle... A few random bullets will either burn or explode, or kill the pilot.

The Eighth Route Army had as many as [-] fighter planes. Although it lost more than [-] fighters in the later battles, the losses in the "Zero War" were much greater. Up to now, more than [-] fighters have been lost and only [-] fighters are left. More than ten frames are still struggling.

And in the end, the devils felt that victory was in sight, so they became more frantic in protecting the missiles...

This psychology is actually understandable.

If you relax at the last moment and let the Eighth Route Army deal with the missiles one by one, wouldn't the devil's previous sacrifice be in vain?
On the contrary, as long as the "Zero War" lasts to the end, no matter how many planes are left, the aviation personnel of the Eighth Route Army will not be able to return because they have nowhere to land after losing the temporary airport. shelf.

Secondly, if the missile destroys the enemy's airfield, it means that the Imperial Air Force has mastered the air.

This is not empty talk. At that time, "Zero War" can use its long range to "circle" with enemy fighters, that is, play the tactics of "the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance", so that the energy consumption can "pull 5" There is no need to worry about the speed of "pull 5" or the X2.

After seizing air supremacy, there are many benefits.

For example, the breakout of the 59th Division, the control and counterattack of the steel factory, the counterattack of Ningbei Railway Station, and the intelligence of the nearby area, etc.

Devil pilots knew this, so they sometimes sacrificed themselves to protect the missiles... Seeing that the Eighth Route Army fighter planes were about to swoop down and straf the missiles, a "Zero Fighter" suddenly jumped out to block the view of "La 5".

Another meaning of blocking the field of vision is to block bullets for missiles.

Although the devil's aircraft is pointing at the "La 5" to form a counterattack, but the Eighth Route Army fighters also have a long-range X[-]...

After the X[-] was launched, "Zero War" really entered into a dilemma: to hide or not to hide?

Dodging may detonate this X[-], but it also means letting the fuselage open and exposing the missile to the enemy's muzzle.

If you don't hide, you will die yourself.

In the end, the Devil Fighter still chose not to hide.

Because the missiles are about to reach the enemy's airfield, they can't let the missiles continue to decrease like this.

The Devil pilot was still shouting "Long live" on the radio at the last moment.

They seem to have done a heroic thing, but they do not realize that their "heroic" is meaningless.

Finally, the remaining seven missiles entered the dive phase.

At this stage, there is not much time left for the fighters of the Eighth Route Army, and the missiles will also accelerate under the action of gravity. At the same time, the height of the missiles is reduced by "pull [-]", and there is not much room for diving... the height is low, "pull [-]" Don't dare to dive at high speed easily, otherwise it may be too late to pull up and fall to the ground.

At this time, there were only [-] "Zero Wars" left.

However, Sakamoto was still very satisfied. He watched the missiles below exploded accurately on the airport, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Everyone, we have won! Thank you for your efforts! Now is the time for the enemy to pay the price." Already!"
