Chapter 698 The anger

"Take off, scramble off."

Stern air defense sirens flooded Mandalay Airport, and the loudspeakers hanging beside the runway uttered urgent shouts.

Before the first bombs fell, several Zero fighters were already preparing to scramble.

But these Zero fighters, which were about to scramble to take off, messed up on the runway because there was no command.

In order to shorten the take-off time, the three Zeros scrambled for the runway and interfered with each other. The pilots cursed and slowed down.

In an instant, a dozen low-altitude "Hellcats" had already flown over the airport, and the six rocket launchers under the wings began to fire rockets at the Zero fighter that was trying to take off on the runway.

In an instant, the runway was shrouded in black gunpowder smoke, and a Type Zero fighter just two or three meters above the ground was knocked over by the explosion of a rocket, miraculously gliding on the runway, making a screeching sound like a saw sawing something.

A Zero behind it was hit by a rocket before it could be pulled up. The beautiful Spitfire was turned into burning aluminum in a violent explosion, and the airport became an aircraft graveyard.

At 1000 meters in the air, twelve Stuka dive bombers plunged down in one fell swoop, and the siren located on the belly of the aircraft immediately issued a mournful siren.

Then cluster bombs fell off from the belly of the aircraft, and hundreds of cluster bombs were scattered when they were more than ten meters above the ground.

These submunitions then exploded again, and thousands of steel ball shrapnel fell on the airport like raindrops. Countless ground crews and pilots running on the runway were sieved by the fine shrapnel.

Just as those low-flying Hellcats wantonly attacked the aircraft on the runway and the buildings on the airport, more than a dozen black spots suddenly appeared in the distance, which were the Japanese Type Zero.

"An enemy plane was found at 1 o'clock, that is, their patrol plane has returned!"

The deputy captain's call came from the headset, and Xie Wenjie, who was performing the cover, quickly adjusted his course and flew towards the enemy plane.

Seeing that the air battle had already started from a distance, his palms were sweating profusely as he participated in the air battle for the first time.

"No, another batch of Zeros is coming from the direction of three o'clock, and the little devil has a hidden field airport nearby!" Someone shouted on the radio again.

32 Japanese Zero fighters in the air have already fought with [-] Hellcats.

Seeing this scene, Xie Wenjie felt even more nervous. The Japanese fighters not only had the upper hand in numbers, but also had a favorable position where there was a way to retreat and an opportunity to attack.

Just when Xie Wenjie was hesitating whether to go over to help, another batch of Type I (Falcon) fighters flew from the west.

"What the hell is going on, where did the little devil get so many planes? We seem to have stabbed a hornet's nest this time?"

As the Zeros and Ones flew in from all directions, the 32 Hellcats that had completed the ground attack were ready to defend.

The Stuka, who was about to attack again with a machine gun after dropping the bomb, instantly dropped to a height below 3000 meters, using complex ground to deal with Japanese aircraft.

At the same time, the Stuka dive bombers who had completed the attack also received an order to return, using Hellcat fighter jets to fight with the Japanese planes, and the Stukas seized the opportunity to return.

The bombers returned, and the Hellcats were in for a hard fight.

"Thrush 25, 7 o'clock behind, a Fighting Falcon."

Xie Wenjie, code-named Thrush No. 25, climbed and dived neatly, coupled with a series of rolls, and successfully made the Type [-] fighter that was chasing the rear rush to the front of the nose.

Six 12.7 Browning machine guns on the wings fired at the same time, and the Falcon, nicknamed the Air Lighter, was shot and exploded in the air on the spot.

The 12.7mm armor-piercing incendiary bomb is not a vegetarian, and has always enjoyed the reputation of an arsonist in the Liantai militia.

Coupled with the poor protective performance of Japanese aircraft, as long as it is hit several times, no matter what type of fighter jet it is, it will be blown up in the air, and the chances of the pilot parachuting to escape are almost zero.

"Good job, thrush bird 25." Lu Dayou, who saw all this in his eyes, praised loudly.

"I shot down the devil fighter plane! Captain Lu, did you see it?"

Looking at the Type [-] fighter that was blown up in the air, Xie Wenjie, who participated in the battle for the first time, screamed with excitement. He was so excited that he shouted the names of his comrades in the radio.

Lu Dayou, who had just completed the attack, saw a Type Zero hit by him falling into the jungle with black smoke. The wreckage of the plane in the air was still burning and falling to the ground.

Without time to think about it, Lu Dayou pulled up the nose of the aircraft while avoiding the explosive fragments flying down in the air, looking for other targets.

Listening to the excited yelling in the earphones, Lu Dayou frowned. The big boss, the brother-in-law, was a little impetuous, and he actually called out the names of his comrades during the war, which violated military discipline.

After Xie Wenjie shot down a Japanese plane, he was only excited, but he didn't notice that a Zero was rushing towards him.

It wasn't until Lu Dayou reminded him that he woke up suddenly, but it was too late to dodge. The only thing he could do was to press the shooting button on the joystick, and the pilot of the Type Zero fighter on the opposite side was doing the same.

The fuselages of the two planes passed by, almost at the same time, Xie Wenjie suddenly heard an explosion from the left wing, and then the fuselage of the plane suddenly tilted to the left, and the whole plane began to tremble.

Lu Dayou from behind was just about to remind Xie Wenjie to pay attention, but he heard his voice from the radio, "I was hit... I was hit!"

"Damn!"

Lu Dayou took a closer look and found that a large piece of the left wing of Xie Wenjie's fighter plane had been cut off, and thick black smoke was still rising.

He knew that it was definitely caused by a large-caliber machine gun.

Since the Type Zero has repeatedly suffered losses in the hands of the Rentai Flying Corps, the Japanese have also begun to frequently improve the Type Zero.

Today's Zero Type has already eliminated the early models, and the Zero Type equipped by the Japanese army is the latest Type 52 Armor (A6M5A/B).

This improved version canceled the original two 7.7-type 13.2mm machine guns, but replaced them with three [-]mm Type-[-] machine guns (one on the nose and one on each wing).

The improved zero-type firepower has increased a lot, and the power of the 13.2mm machine gun is not comparable to the original 7.7mm machine gun.

Looking at the thrush bird No. 25 falling down with black smoke, Lu Dayou's back instantly broke out in cold sweat.

If Gao Hongming's brother-in-law belched in his hands, he could imagine how angry his boss would be.

Even if Mr. Gao Hongming doesn't care about himself a lot, Xie Wenqian is not a vegetarian.

Although this person is usually silent and just doing his own job in silence, no one dares to underestimate this doctor Xie.

Among other things, in the past two years, the lives of officers and soldiers who were rescued by her alone are countless. There are too many people who owe favors to others, which is a life-saving grace.

If she really wanted to let her know that her younger brother was shot down by the little devil right in front of her eyes, who knew if she would get angry at herself.

　I'm sorry, the previous writing was wrong, and the author himself was confused. Xie Wenjie is not Xie Wenqian's biological brother, but was adopted by Xie's family.
