Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 406 Not a single devil is left!

chug chug!

Boom!

Just when Lao Tie thought that he was about to die under the impact of the Japanese aircraft, a bullet flew from nowhere and hit the Japanese aircraft that was on fire again.

The plane exploded and burst into flames 100 meters away from the old railway. The huge explosion swept hot wind and the plane debris flew out in all directions.

At this moment, whether it was Lao Tie, Duan Wu, Master Huo and other Chinese soldiers, or those devils lying on the hillside, they all ran around to avoid.

These debris covered a huge area, covering at least a half-kilometer radius, and the shattered aircraft fragments seemed to have rained heavily on the entire battlefield.

The Chinese soldiers are okay, they have simple fortifications to hide from, but instead the devils are all on the exposed hillside.

A part of the China Metallurgical Brigade was hit hard again, and more than 30 people were killed or injured in the explosion.

But in the Dragon Boat Festival, Mr. Huo, Lao Tie and others, only a dozen people were killed or injured.Although Lao Tie was inserted into his shoulder by something like a steel bar, it was not fatal.

He got up from the ground and continued to shoot at the devil under the thick gunpowder.

At the same time, the roar of Hawker fighter planes came from the sky, and there was a non-standard Chinese pronunciation-I'm coming!
It turned out that at this critical moment, it was Brooke who drove the fighter jet and the other four fighter jets from the First Brigade of China Aviation came to support.

Brook was still flying a Hawker III fighter.

Hawker III fighter, maximum level flight speed: 360 km/h; practical ceiling: 8410 meters; crew: 1 person; flight range: 1284 km.

Power plant: 1 Wright R-1820-F53 radial air-cooled piston engine with a maximum power of 555 kilowatts.

武器：1挺12.7毫米口径机枪，1挺7.62毫米口径机枪，可挂装一枚227千克或4枚53千克炸弹。

This is so far, the fighter jet with the best performance that the first aviation brigade can take out.

There were three before, but during the Battle of Yushan, Brooke and his good brother Paul came to support, and as a result, one died in battle and the other forced to land.Two fighter jets also crashed as a result.

The remaining four Chinese pilots flew Breda Ba-27 fighter jets.

The Breda Ba-27 fighter belongs to the product of the transition from biplane fighters to monoplane fighters at that time.

It was designed with features common to most fighter jets of that transitional era: trouser-leg fixed landing gear, wing struts and tensioning wires to prevent the strength of the fuselage due to excessive speed, and an open cockpit.

So much so that this design doesn't look like a battle-tested fighter jet, but more like a relatively large beer barrel.

Therefore, once this kind of fighter came out, it was not welcomed, and Breda had to turn its attention to foreign countries.

Finally in 1935, they found the Chinese Air Force who was willing to also contribute to the development of the Italian aviation industry.In the end, a total of 12 Breda Ba-27 fighters were sold to China.

China became the receiver, and at first thought that it had bought the most advanced fighter jet in the world at that time.

But in actual operation, the Chinese pilots discovered that they had been fooled. The performance of this crappy monoplane fighter was completely inferior to the old-fashioned Hawker III.The so-called advanced monoplane is nothing more than a gimmick.

Its engine vibrates very badly when it is turning, and its flexibility is extremely poor. This makes the Breda Ba-27 fighter, although it can withstand the name of the world's advanced fighter, its performance is not as good as the old-fashioned biplane fighter.

But even so, in China, these four fighters were available at that time, at least they could compete with the little devil's fighters in the air.

The Japanese bombers were attacked by four Breda Ba-27 fighters and five were destroyed, while the rest scattered and fled.

Although the Type [-] bombers of the Japanese army were considered very advanced at that time, fighting against fighter jets in the air was like hitting an egg against a rock.

The remaining three fighters of the Japanese army rushed to fight, but at this time, Brook made a beautiful move and opened a hole in the stomach of a Japanese fighter.

The Japanese fighter jet suffered heavy damage, and a fire broke out in the cabin.

The pilots tried to steer the plane in the direction of the Yangtze River, where they had their own people.Moreover, the buffer force of the plane entering the water may have kept him alive.

There are only two remaining Japanese fighter jets.Captain Xiongfei panicked a lot.Because from the short fight, he noticed the unusualness of the opponent's pilot.

The first is to approach the Japanese fleet quietly, but he didn't notice it.The second is the opponent's driving skills. After diving to accurately intercept the fighter plane hitting Dongshan, it quickly pulled up, the plane made a rotation in the air, and easily hit the belly of a fighter jet.

It's hard to imagine how the other party did it while the plane was traveling at high speed.But it is undeniable that the opponent is an opponent of his Xiongfei.

Xiongfei ordered another fighter pilot to deal with the other four fighters, and ordered the disintegrated bomber formation to regroup, while he and Brook fought face to face.

Both sides are highly skilled, constantly chasing in the air, changing various flying postures and shooting at each other.

Colonel Xiongfei's attack was fierce, and he always took the initiative in the battle with the help of the superior performance of the Type 97 fighter.

But Brook is extremely cunning. While laughing at Xiongfei's incompetence, he constantly changes the flight trajectory to prevent Xiongfei from catching him.

And the flexibility of the biplane made Xiongfei very headache.The opponent's speed was not as fast as his own, but he was as difficult to catch as a small sparrow.

Captain Xiongfei was played around by Brook, and it was difficult to win in a short time.The same is true for other Japanese fighter planes. He didn't care about the attack on the ground, but was tired of dealing with the enemy planes in the air.

Perhaps they never imagined in their dreams that the Chinese Air Force would dare to send out planes to fight the planes of the Japanese Empire again in the air.Because of the battle in Songhu, China Airlines' five brigades suffered heavy losses.China's airspace is already under his Empire of Japan.

But today, the Chinese Air Force once again taught them a lesson. China still has a hole card, but it just didn't show it.

At this time, the Japanese aircraft in the air were entangled, and the pressure on the ground troops suddenly eased.At this time, the anti-aircraft weapons that had fought desperately with the Japanese aircraft once again suppressed the Japanese ground forces.

The first part of the China Metallurgical Brigade, who was infinitely close to the Dongshan headquarters, was beaten into a grandson.Those improvised bunkers could no longer stop the firepower of Chinese anti-aircraft artillery.

The bunkers were crushed one after another, and more than two-thirds of the more than 400 devils were killed or injured.

The soldiers had no intention of fighting, even if the Zhongye Village was still roaring desperately, it could not change the decline of the Japanese army.

When seven or eight anti-aircraft machine guns joined the battle, the last remaining hope of Zhongye Village also disappeared.

One by one his soldiers were hit by 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun rounds.The body was beaten into a sieve, and the dark red blood flowed into small rivers.

The soil was dyed red, and Zhongye Village, which was roaring, was hit by seven bullets, and half of its head was blown away.

The remaining forty or so devils fled in panic.

At this moment, Duan Wu drew out the saber from his waist and roared angrily: "Kill me, not a single devil will be left behind!"
