Anti-war metal frenzy

In the Battle of Songhu, the only Japanese force that could make Sun Buyi feel threatened was the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet moored on the Huangpu River.

Due to the special geographical location of Shanghai, Sun Buyi never dared to take it lightly when dealing with the Japanese navy attacking Shanghai.And the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet was like a boulder weighing on Sun Buyi's heart, making Sun Buyi feel restless all the time.

As early as 1932, the Japanese Navy formed the Third Fleet specifically for China.The flagship of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet is the battleship Izumo, which was mentioned countless times in the description of the Songhu Battle in later generations.

The Izumo battleship was ordered by Japan from the UK with the huge indemnity it received from the Qing government after the victory of the Sino-Japanese War.The battleship Izumo started construction in 1898, was completed in 1900 and joined the Japanese Navy in the same year. It became the main combat ship of the Japanese Navy during the Russo-Japanese War.

After the end of the First World War, the Izumo battleship was incorporated into the second-line fleet of the Japanese Navy as an old-fashioned battleship that had been in service for nearly 20 years. However, due to its displacement of nearly 1937 tons and the powerful firepower on board, The battleship Izumo was thus designated as the flagship of the Japanese Navy's second-line fleet, and underwent a series of modifications such as the addition of seaplane handling functions.After the Battle of Songhu broke out in [-], the battleship Izumo had been moored in the waters near Wusongkou to provide support for the Japanese attacking Shanghai.

There were nearly ten Japanese navy cruisers escorting the battleship Izumo and the aircraft carrier Kaga that arrived later.Unlike the cruisers equipped by Western countries, the cruisers of the Japanese Navy are really used for combat, and their firepower equipment is not even inferior to the power of battleships to some extent.

Composed of heavy cruisers Nachi, Aoba, Myoko, Takao, Maya, Tatsuta, Kinu, Naka, Yura, etc. And a huge lineup of about 20 destroyers caused the squadrons guarding the front lines of Wusong, Baoshan, and Chuanshakou to suffer a lot during the Battle of Songhu.

Therefore, before the outbreak of the Songhu Battle, the formation of a dive bomber force capable of suppressing the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet became the first thing Sun Buyi, who had just owned an aircraft factory, had to do first.The ju87 Stuka dive bomber developed by the German Junkers company, with its steep dive angle, precise bomb design and simple operation method, has naturally become capable of severely injuring the Japanese Third Fleet in the waters near Shanghai. The preferred model!

As a fighter escort for the Ju87 Stuka dive bomber, after learning of the existence of space-time barriers, Sun Buyi decisively gave up the fw190d fighter that he originally chose, which was not produced until the end of World War II, and switched to I chose a classic fighter that Germany began to produce and install in 1936, the Messerschmitt bf-109.

The Messerschmitt bf-109 fighter is definitely the main fighter of the Luftwaffe in World War II.From the beginning of the Spanish Civil War before the outbreak of World War II until the end of World War II, whether it is the huge waves of the English Channel or the vast plain of the Don River in the Soviet Union, Messerschmitt BF-109 fighter jets can be seen flying past everywhere figure.

The Messerschmitt bf-109 fighter is therefore considered to be the iconic fighter of the Luftwaffe during World War II!Moreover, throughout World War II, more than half of all the achievements of the Luftwaffe were achieved by pilots flying Messerschmitt bf-109 fighter jets.

However, where to go to recruit enough pilots to fly those Messerschmitt BF-109 fighter jets produced by the base has become another difficult problem that plagues Sun.After all, fighter jets are different from armored vehicles like tanks.Just like those student soldiers who are still training in the unnamed valley outside Nanyuan in Beiping, Sun Buyi will not ask them to be able to control the tanks in their hands to be invincible after equipping them with German Panzer III tanks. .

Sun Buyi's requirements for those student soldiers are very simple, as long as you can start the tanks and fire the artillery.As for other armored vehicle handling skills that should be mastered, you can experience and learn slowly in battle.

The reason why Sun Buyi dared to do this was because in terms of the current equipment level of the Japanese army, the student soldiers sitting in the German Panzer III tanks under his command were like drinking invincibility potion in battle, and they didn't even want to die. easy.

Even if the Japanese army has the ability to destroy the German Panzer III in the future, Sun Buyi will naturally replace the tanks in his army with the more advanced German Panzer IV or even the Tiger heavy tank.

Anyway, relying on the support of the moon base, Sun Buyi will keep the equipment of his troops at the highest level in this era!If he had such superior equipment and could still be beaten to death by devils, then Sun Buyi would really have nothing to say.

However, the situation is different for fighter jets.If the pilot's own skills are not strong enough, even if he can barely fly the plane into the sky, he will still die.Although there are as many Messerschmitt Bf-109 fighter jets as there are, Sun Buyi doesn't have so many pilots to squander.

Faced with the daily production of 58 fighter jets and [-] dive bombers each at the aircraft factory in the base, Sun Buyi was overjoyed but could only sigh in anticipation.The clone pilots provided by the base are not produced by the hour like the clone infantry, but by the day, which makes [-] of the [-] fighter jets and dive bombers produced by the base every day have to be parked on the ground because there are no pilots to operate them superior.

If only I could dig up all the four King Kongs in the Chinese Air Force during this period, Gao Zhihang, Li Guidan, Le Yiqin, and Liu Cuigang!Any one of them can definitely use the Messerschmitt bf-109 fighter provided by him to show his country's prestige in Shanghai!I can even use the connections of the Four King Kong in the Chinese Air Force to attract a group of pilots for myself, so at least in this battle of Songhu, the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet will definitely be suppressed by myself outside Wusongkou !

Although even Sun Buyi himself felt that this idea was a bit whimsical, Sun Buyi still decided to try his best.Because from the end of 1937 to the beginning of 1938, these four kings of the Chinese Air Force will work with the young Chinese Air Force to shed the last drop of blood to defend the airspace of the motherland.

Sun Buyi was sure that within a few days, the head of the German Military Advisory Group, General Alexander von Falkenhausen would definitely find him again and discuss with him about the arms deal between the two sides.

At that time, I can just establish preliminary contact with those Uranus-level pilots through Falkenhausen!Even if nothing can be done in the end, at worst, let those Ju87 Stuka dive bombers fight alone!

You must know that there are no rookies in the pilots produced from the base, they are all skilled veterans!In the Battle of Songhu, even if he exchanged ten Ju87 Stuka dive bombers for one warship from the Devils, he would definitely make a fortune!
