Chapter 312 So Suddenly
This is the largest air battle that has taken place in China's airspace since 38 years ago.

Nearly [-] fighter planes from China and Japan fought bloody battles in an airspace with an area of ​​less than [-] square kilometers.

The purpose of the Liantai Flying Brigade is to survive, while the purpose of the Japanese army is just the opposite. They want to kill the suddenly rising air force of the Liantai Flying Brigade in the cradle, otherwise they will become a huge threat to the Japanese Army Aviation when they grow stronger. .

For this operation, the third flight group dispatched the 10th and 11th flight teams, which included 122 fighter jets including the Zero type, 85 fighter jets including the [-]-type land attack aircraft, and the [-]-type light explosive aircraft. bomber.

Among them, the goal of the 10th flying team is the No. 11 airport, and the 2th flying team's goal is the No. [-] airport.

Their plan is very simple, that is to launch a surprise attack on the two airports, as long as they can destroy most or even all of the two airports and the planes parked on the tarmac, the mission will be considered complete.

It's just that the plan is good, but the implementation has problems.

First of all, what they didn't expect was that the number of airports in the Liantai Flying Brigade was not two as in the information, but four. During this period of time, in order to train the pilots recruited from the Central Air Force, all fighter jets and pilots were transferred to No. [-] Airport.

The second is that Gao Hongming installed a radar station around Liantai County. The Japanese aircraft were detected by the radar station as soon as they approached Liantai County. After they arrived at No. [-] and No. [-] Airports for bombing, the fighter planes that took off from No. [-] Airport had already caught up. arrive.

Nearly [-] fighter planes entangled and fought each other in the sky, roaring roars were heard everywhere, hot flames flashed across the sky from time to time, and fighter planes were blown up in the air or fell to the ground with thick smoke from time to time.

A Japanese pilot who participated in this air battle wrote this in his memoirs afterwards.

"I entered China since the "China Incident" (July [-]th Incident), and I can be regarded as an old pilot. Three months after the China Incident, the planes of the Chinese people were exhausted, and since then I have never fought with the Chinese people again. Large-scale air battles have been carried out. In our impression, the sky of China is already dominated by the empire.

However, this impression has completely changed since that day.We dispatched two teams with a total of 122 fighters including the latest Zero fighters and more than 70 fighters from China to fight fiercely over Liantai County.

It was also from that day that I got to know the chubby, baby-bottle fighter jet equipped by the Chinese. I didn’t know its name was the P47 fighter jet until later.

Although this fighter is round and inconspicuous, and even a little ugly, its performance is no less than that of the Imperial Type Zero fighter, and it is even superior in some performances.

What I hate the most is its thick armor. I bit a P47, and even saw more than ten bullets hit its fuselage, but it was still alive and well, and even turned back. He came over and gave me a shuttle, and half of my tail was knocked off in an instant.

If Fujino-kun hadn't tried his best to protect me, maybe I would have stayed there forever that day. Unfortunately, in order to save me, Fujino-kun was hit by a Chinese fighter plane that followed, and the Type [-] fighter plane he was driving was shot into the air. It exploded, and it was too late to even parachute..."

"Committee... The military command urgently reported that just over ten minutes ago, the Japanese Third Air Force Group dispatched a total of more than 200 aircraft to bomb the airport in Liantai. In the middle of a fierce battle!"

After a while, a voice with a Fenghua accent sounded faintly: "Got it, the tree attracts the wind, and since the Liantai militia has come to this day, it must be conscious of being targeted by the Japanese. As for whether it can survive, it depends on God's will. "

"Appointment... don't we do something?"

"Do something? What do you want to do? What can you do?"

"Yes...the staff understands..."

The biggest air battle in China since 38 has attracted the attention of many forces. For a while, countless eyes were fixed on the small Liantai County. This air battle also concerned the hearts of countless people.

The reason is very simple. Once the Japanese win this air battle, Gao Hongming, who is still in Zhongtiao Mountain, must be ready to break through, because once he loses the air support and faces the Japanese army several times his own, he will be able to fight again. Even if it is powerful, it cannot withstand the successive attacks of [-] Japanese troops.

Conversely, once the Liantai Flying Brigade wins, the air supremacy of Zhongtiaoshan will fall into the hands of the Liantai Militia. This explains that with the air support of the Liantai Flying Brigade, the Japanese army wants to eat the Third Army, the Eighth Route Army, and the Liantai Militia. The formed defense line has to be prepared to collapse a few teeth.

The air battle lasted for more than half an hour before it ended, and the results of the battle far exceeded those of the Japanese army.

In this air battle, 32 of the 122 Japanese fighters including 87 Zero fighters were shot down, and 8 other bombers including the Type 95 land attack aircraft and the Type [-] light explosive aircraft were shot down. , A total of [-] aircraft were lost.

As for the flying brigade, 9 planes were shot down, and three Stuka dive bombers and a B-25 Mitchell medium bomber were destroyed by the Japanese on the apron of the No. [-] airport.

This was a brilliant victory, and since the battle took place in Liantai County, the pilot was rescued immediately after our fighter plane was shot down.

On the other hand, although most of the Japanese pilots did not have the opportunity to parachute, even those who were lucky enough to successfully jump out of the parachute all became captives of the Liantai militia.

After the results of the air battle were announced, it caused a sensation all over the country.

"Boss...good news...good news..."

Xing, the left deputy chief of staff, hurried into the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army headquarters, and said loudly to the deputy commander-in-chief, Commander Liu, and political commissar Ping who were discussing things: "Boss, Lao Liu, the Liantai militia has just received news. Hours ago, the Japanese army sent more than 200 planes to fly over Liantai County, intending to blow up the airport and planes of the Liantai militia.

The Liantai Flying Brigade immediately dispatched more than 70 fighter planes to fight, and the air battle lasted for more than half an hour before it ended.Guess what?The Japanese suffered a big loss this time. More than 200 fighters were shot down on the spot, and more than 90 of them were shot down, while the Liantai Flying Brigade itself lost only 13 planes. This is a great victory in the air battle! "

"Really, that's great!"

The deputy commander-in-chief slapped the table happily.

"Lao Liu and I are worried about the situation of Gao Hongming, the 386th Brigade and the Third Army of the Dian Army. I didn't expect a great victory to come so suddenly!"
