The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

crazy!Sixty to seventy f4u, each with six 6mm heavy machine guns fired together, and the result was that the space with a radius of five kilometers suddenly turned into a hell shrouded in a net of death!The long and short bursts of light criss-crossed unscrupulously, and the finger-thick bullets that could fly 12.7 kilometers away actually pulled out a thrilling whistling in the air!

The "Wall of Flying Sharks" never expected that the opponent would use such means. Caught off guard, most of the 24 fighters were hit by the attack, and the thick warheads knocked out ping-pong ball-sized bullets on the all-metal reinforced body. Holes, the relatively weak wings can easily make a lot of transparent holes.

Fortunately, the strength of the Flying Shark-e's fuselage is insane compared to other contemporary fighters. All important parts such as the engine, cockpit, radar, fuel tank, etc. hood, or through the glass cockpit, the pilot will basically not be injured.

But this sudden change was shocking enough. The three "Flying Sharks" were hit by multiple bullet streams, the engines smoked, the cockpit glass was broken, or a piece of the wing was forcibly broken, and thick smoke billowed out immediately!

Fortunately, those who can enter the ocean-going fleet are all carefully selected elites, and the air force with the most fierce competition is the most outstanding one among the proud ones. When they found out that something was wrong, the pilots said nothing before the second bullet came from the opposite side. Accelerate the pedal, push the rudder, lean on the fighter plane and run away!

The maneuverability of "Flying Shark-e" can only be described as "perverted". Pilots who are just physically fit don't care about the damage that may be caused by high g-forces. Or the drum spins.All in all, in a short time of one second, they were tens of meters away from their original positions, and the strafing shots of the Japanese machine siege fell through!

After escaping, these flying sharks were not in a hurry to escape, but relied on their high speed and high maneuverability, dodging left and right, rushed up more than 1000 meters in one breath, and then fell down one by one, forming in twos and twos like angels scattered flowers .Swooping down at the clearly painted Japanese machine, separated by 3000 meters, the 25mm three-barreled cannon unceremoniously "chugs" and spewed brilliant flames. In a short while, more than a dozen f4u exploded and caught fire, falling sparsely!

The high-altitude early warning aircraft obviously did not expect such a change. The staff department is not omnipotent, and the intelligence department is not that capable.Considering the possibility of them colluding, but when it comes to tactics, I really can't judge!

After being startled, seeing that the flying sharks were basically dodging, and the wounded were also speeding away, the commander of the early warning aircraft immediately sent an order: "All out to kill the Japanese planes! If the American fighter planes join the battle, we will strike together! The backup force will be here soon!"

When it comes to battle, there is no room for hesitation.As long as the battle starts, the spectators can't be a little white rabbit without threat.This is how the U.S. military plays.Its intentions are obvious!

Zhu Bin and others listened to the battle report at ease in the "Kunlun Mountain" command center. The early warning aircraft transmitted the battle situation synchronously. The scene of the miraculous formation in the air, coupled with the strange formation of the ships on the sea, is really stupid if you don't understand it. Thorough!

Zhu Bin secretly hid the excitement in his heart.On the surface, he said with a serious expression: "It seems that the Yankees are determined to help the Japanese army! It is estimated that their next actions will be exactly the same. , suddenly let the Japanese army launch an attack. I stood on the sidelines, and continued to stand and shout if I won the battle. If I couldn’t win, they would grab their sleeves. All in all, there are many excuses available.”

Finally, the country that was sideways and cold-handed was finally dragged into the water!

Zhu Bin has been planning for nine years, and the war game involving the whole world has officially kicked off today, and it has been mobilized. It is absolutely impossible to get out of the matter. After that, just wait Watching the war behemoth smash the world vigorously, bringing about a great era of magnificent heroes!

This happy idea must not be noticed by outsiders, and he still has to work hard to maintain a face of a pacifist who is concerned about the country and the people. When he said this, he was still filled with righteous indignation.

Chen Shaokuan and others didn't talk so much. When they heard this judgment, they immediately became furious, and said angrily: "How can the Americans be so absurd! Could it be that they think my China is still the same as the Manchu Qing 40 years ago, and they can be bullied and slaughtered by them? Hmph , Such a sneaky behavior is simply not worthy of being called a civilized country!"

Shen Honglie said quietly: "The great powers don't have a good thing! The so-called civilization is just a disguise for their thugs' faces. As long as they see enough benefits, they will not be afraid to tear off their fake faces and go into battle naked! Humph, this time I'm afraid they are using the hands of the Japanese to start the war justifiably!"

"Yes! The upper echelons of the United States are eager to participate in the war to reap dividends. It has not been a day or two! Then President Roosevelt pushed Congress to pass the proposal several times, because he wanted to be involved in the European war first. But it has been blocked. This time, I am afraid it is the Japanese. I asked them, so I took advantage of the situation to plan, hmph, you are shameless!"

They are all old Jianghu, as long as you look at the world with your eyes, you can analyze those things that are on the bright side.

Roosevelt never concealed his intention to bring the United States to take the initiative to initiate a dispute over the leadership of the world. He repeated his speeches many times. In fact, he emphasized inside and outside that the United States must obtain the real world leadership and the hegemony of the entire Western civilization. Instead of Britain, it should not only rely on economic plunder, but should cast an invincible and powerful mark in the war!

It's just that the internal integration of the United States can't be said to be completely completed. The civilians and conservative rich who have just been looted by the Great Depression don't want to shed blood and sacrifice needlessly. In other words, they haven't seen a high enough return and have been procrastinating.

Now, if the U.S. Navy suffers huge losses in a fair situation, Roosevelt may not even be able to suppress his ambitions in turn!From the inexplicable humiliation five months ago, until now, what they want is a very good start. Obviously, they have waited for it!

If the situation is so dangerous, then the original estimate is greatly underestimated!Chen Shaokuan and the others looked solemn, and reminded with some concern: "Looking at the posture of the Japanese and American coalition forces, I am afraid that they want to seize Ryukyu in one fell swoop. To seize this maritime strategic center, whether it is to enter the mainland or seize Taiwan with a backhand, it is all expected. Thing! Next, we will face a series of fierce battles! Do we need to call out the three major fleets? At least, the East China Sea Fleet is duty-bound!"

Zhu Bin shook his head: "I'm afraid it's too late! The East China Sea Fleet will come to help the battle. It will take at least a day, and I estimate that if they leave at the front, Lao Jiang will make trouble behind! Secondly, since they have been preparing for a long time, this move will not be the only one. In other aspects, there must be actions to contain us! We have to guard against it!"

"Oh?! Could it be that they dare to attack from land?!"

They are all old fritters.Hearing Zhu Bin's words, they all stared.

Zhu Bin said hesitantly: "It must be true! Our intelligence department has discovered that during this period of time, the U.S. military has helped the Kwantung Army evacuate in name, but in fact it was not transported back to the mainland. A large number of troops were sent secretly. They have arrived in Indochina and Southeast Asia! It is very possible that after training there, they will attack our Guangxi, Yunnan, etc. by land! Coupled with the containment of the Russians in the north. With the comeback of the Korean and Japanese troops, the war will sweep the whole world!"

"Hiss---! Really vicious and sinister!"

A group of old people were shocked by his guess!How crazy is this Nima!It turned out to be just a local war.If this happens, it will be an all-out war!What's more, the whole of China, the north, the south, the east, and the west are fully involved, and the armed forces of the sea, land and air cannot stop, and Lao Jiang's uncertain factor of millions of troops is poked in his confidantes. One is not good.The whole country is about to be subverted!

If Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, India, Soviet Russia, and France are added to Thailand, which is inclined to them, this is another eight-nation coalition!Is it possible to repeat the Eight-Power Allied Forces' war of aggression against China? !

"This... what can we do?! With our current strength, we are under the enemy's back. I am afraid it will be difficult to sustain it! After all, our national strength is too small compared to the coalition forces of the great powers!"

In the final analysis, war is fought for resources, money, population and territory, and war potential!

There is no shortage of people in China, and the types of resources are considered complete, but the minerals are relatively poor, but they can barely support it when it is urgent.The depth of the battlefield is also large enough, and the necessary military strength is not too bad. As long as the internal unity is used and the strength is exerted in one place, it may not be unstoppable.

But the problem lies in the internal disunity!There are many factions, and the central government is struggling with the local government. No matter how you look at it now, Zhu Bin is like the paper painter Li Hongzhang who fought against powerful countries on his own!In the front, he used his wealth alone to fight against a powerful enemy, while the huge country and power behind him dragged his feet back!Could it be that this is the fate of Chinese heroes?

All the seniors couldn't help lowering their heads and sighing dejectedly when they thought about the government's troublesome mess.

At this time, Chen Shaokuan suddenly understood why Lao Jiang had been yelling "to fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside". When he really encountered big troubles from the outside, the inside was unstable, and people kept saying the opposite of you and stabbed him, it really didn't feel good!

However, Lao Jiang's approach is not commendable, and there are too many things to explain clearly.But Zhu Bin now is different from that time. If Lao Jiang really dared to take advantage of the time when they were fighting for the country outside, he would make a fuss and clean up these rotten things by black hands, it would not seem to cause too much trouble. strife.

However, Zhu Bin did not show the slightest bit of discouragement or worry. His face was full of confident smiles, and he said firmly and heartily: "Soldiers come to cover up water and earth! If our nation wants to rise, we must start from the blood and fire. Slowly tempered into steel in the battle! Let his foreign enemies be as fierce as tigers, we will surely face the difficulties and rebuild the national style!"

Needless to say, between countries, fight hard to see who is tough enough!

During the fierce battle ahead, the second batch of fighter planes took off, and 48 Flying Shark-e flew out at once, heading towards the battlefield [-] kilometers away at full speed!

The first batch of fighters who retreated and flew up and down were beaten by enemy planes several times their own, and all of them were injured in a few minutes!Although they killed three times as many enemy planes as their own, the ammunition was consumed too quickly, and they couldn't keep up with them, so they had to slowly lead the battlefield back.

This obviously caught the enemy's hands. The Japanese planes painted with red dots swarmed up, fighting desperately and frantically. Stalking with red eyes!

The aircraft made by the Yankees spared no effort to protect the pilot and engine. The protection of the pilot and the engine is not comparable to that of the Japanese aircraft. At least the steel plate and Kevlar layer in the important parts of the flight cockpit can basically be immune to the penetration of 12.7mm bullets. Generally, shell fragments will kill It is also difficult.Unless it is directly hit by a 25mm armor-piercing projectile.

And the Japanese pilots were desperate enough!They don't have the romantic air knight feelings of Westerners. Each forehead is wrapped with a white cloth, with words such as "must win" and "must kill" written on it, and the look in their eyes makes people tremble!

They have a great responsibility on their shoulders!According to the meaning of the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, the Japanese army should bear the responsibility of provoking and seducing China into the set, as long as they fight.They must fight hard enough, ferociously enough, cause enough damage, and force the opponent to go crazy and take revenge. As long as the position is messed up and the hidden strength is forced to be exposed in advance, under the assessment of Britain and the United States, they will be able to gain greater confidence in victory!

To put it bluntly, they are the pilots.It is a victim!

Zhu Bin obviously underestimated this, and sent 24 fighter planes to intercept it at once. He thought it would be enough to test the bottom line and true intention of the US military.Now they have to make up for it, but the speed of change is also unexpected by the US military.

48 new Flying Sharks arrived quickly!He rushed to the battlefield with almost full power, and in less than 15 minutes, a staggered early-warning aircraft passed by in the air, changing positions with the injured colleague.Apart from anything else, the air-to-air bombs were launched, under the guidance of the airborne radar and the radar of the early warning aircraft.Hula-la-like a swarm of bees rushing towards the chasing Japanese plane!

The slender figure of the air-to-air missile, which quickly accelerated over Mach 1.5, pulled out amazing traces in the sky, arriving like a sharp arrow of God in an instant!The more than 30 Japanese planes in front of them were caught off guard and immediately caught the attack. Under normal combat conditions, they all had missiles with a [-]% hit rate, two against one, and a distance of less than ten kilometers. None of the locked targets slipped through the net!

Missiles are expensive!The manufacturing cost catches up with an ordinary propeller plane.But fighting is all about money!At this time, if you don't want to part with it, then wait to be wiped out!

Zhu Bin's automated production line manufactures rocket engines, electronic components, and even circuit board soldering. Only materials are paid for, and the cost is extremely low.Besides, he doesn't count as a financial account, as long as he doesn't go bankrupt, he can fight!

The fireworks exploded by more than 30 Japanese planes were spectacular, making the eyes of the large group of US fighter planes dazzled!Nima can be considered to have seen the legendary airborne rocket. It turns out that the power is so amazing, and the hit rate is so terrible!With their sharp eyes, they didn't even have time to see clearly before they got tricked. If it was me, could I avoid it?

No!

The U.S. military got news from time to time, knowing that Soviet Russia was the first to launch rockets on the plane to hit the target. Unfortunately, the Japanese army encountered it at Nuomenkan. After that, the Chinese naval pilots used this thing to defeat the Japanese army several times.No matter how much they heard, they felt that it was not very reliable. Rockets, in those universities in the United States, there are a lot of enthusiast groups, not to mention aiming, it is good to be able to fly steadily, can you use a plane to fight?No kidding!

Now no one is joking, because a total of 72 Chinese fighter planes have actually proved that the output of that thing is huge!

The U.S. military pilot suddenly felt a lot of pressure all over his body!But they couldn't tolerate their emotion. The surviving Japanese planes had just rushed out of the exploding fireworks group of comrades-in-arms. 48 new force Flying Shark-e flew down in the air with the attitude of Mount Taishan, the radar locked on, the machine guns fired first, and the dense bullet flow swept across After crossing the battlefield, the last handful of Japanese planes are scattered and smashed in the air!

In just 10 minutes, more than 100 fighters were killed, and the battle damage ratio seemed to be one to ten!

Not only the U.S. troops behind were stunned, but after the data was reported to the fleet, the generals were also speechless for a while!Especially the Yankees and the Brits, immediately shouted out of composure: "That's impossible! We dispatched more than 300 fighter planes, but only dealt with 24 enemy planes. Are planes flying destroyers?!"

They are all mechanized products, things with thin skin and big stuffing, the power is almost the same, and the speed is not much better. How can the powerful US military make such a move?I can't stand it!

It is indeed unacceptable!Because not all of the planes painted with red dots were Japanese, there were also some American and British pilots mixed in!On the one hand, their existence is the active application of young people who are brave enough to take risks, and on the other hand, it is also to find out the actual capabilities of the Chinese people first, but the result is too unbelievable!

Nagumo Chuichi seemed to have expected it a long time ago, his face did not change a bit, under the questioning gaze of Kimmel and General Philips, he nodded heavily: "That's right! The China Air Force is indeed so strong! We have paid a lot. The price of [-] to [-] excellent pilots is the final affirmation of this fact! Their planes are exceptionally good! There are too many inheritances of the latest American technology in them, which Japan cannot compete with!"

On the surface, he wanted to flatter his partner, but General Kimmel felt that his skin was hot, and immediately scolded unceremoniously: "Damn MIT! They have sent hundreds of thousands of excellent aircraft research talents to the Chinamen. , now it's all causing us trouble!"

As of 1930, there were more than 100 Chinese aircraft professionals who had graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and each of them had the ability to drive a research team, not to mention Wang Zhu, who took Boeing to take off.

In the nine years since Zhu Bin joined, the number of Chinese students studying abroad in the United States, especially MIT, has reached the upper limit of enrollment. Together with the tens of thousands of talents he has cultivated, China's aviation industry has created a world-leading research scale, and it is only natural to achieve results!

The british guys have always been spectators, full of the old idea that the British Empire is the most invincible. At this time, they still didn't understand the situation, and said arrogantly: "Maybe it's just a fluke for them! We have ten aircraft carriers. Quantity, we can definitely kill them!"

General Kimmel nodded in agreement: "This time we must win, continue to attack!" (To be continued...)
