Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 2378
After the self-student army entered Chongqing, the first large-scale contest between the aviation forces of China and Japan took place in the airspace centered on Xuzhou.In the service, the Xuebing Army dispatched a total of 570 fighters in three batches, and the Japanese side was even more exaggerated, including the aviation troops from Shanghai, Beiping, and Jinan, and the number of fighters exceeded [-]. shelf.

The number of fighters participating in the battle was one to two, but in terms of quality, the Japanese army was completely at a disadvantage.On the side of the Chinese Air Force, because the fighter planes imported from the Soviet Union and the United States that were originally equipped by the Central Army were not enough to fly so far, all the white-ji dolphins and golden eagles that arrived at the Xuzhou battlefield were all.On the other hand, the Japanese army has all types of aircraft, and even the old Type [-] and Type [-] fighters have been dispatched.You must know that the actual combat has proved that the aviation machine guns equipped with these two fighters cannot break through the protective armor of the Baiji within the best range.

The quality of the fighter planes is not at the same level. In addition, the pilots of the Japanese army are generally new to the service. Many of them have flown the plane for less than [-] hours. The result of the battle can be imagined.

The battle had just started, when the first batch of Japanese planes from the two flying brigades arrived at the Xuzhou battlefield from Jinan, Tie Linfei and Zhou Zhirou ordered the accompanying Sky Fortress and Tiger Shark to return for safety considerations.And as the fighter planes of the two sides collided together, after a quarter of an hour, they watched the battle report just sent back from the front line, and the tense muscles on their faces immediately relaxed.

In the first round of the confrontation between the two sides, the Chinese Air Force had no other losses except that one Baiji Dolphin suffered battle damage and had to withdraw from the fighting airspace and make an emergency landing in the Pingdingshan area of ​​Henan.However, 72 of the 29 fighter planes attacked by the Japanese army were shot down, and then the remaining devil aviation soldiers realized that the situation was not good, and they fled collectively.

"Commander, have you noticed that the little devil's aviation unit is getting worse and worse!" Zhou Zhi Judo finished speaking, picked up the battle report with great interest, and read it carefully again.

Tie Linfei smiled and said: "That's because their excellent pilots have all gone to fly the [-] special attack aircraft. But the [-] special attack aircraft also has Lao Shizi's special attack tactics. They were able to scare people the last time or two times, but once they are found out, they will be the ones who scare themselves."

Zhou Zhirou nodded, and said: "This is a classic! Isn't it, the one who is scared now is the little devil himself!"

The two were chatting, and there was an enemy report sent to the communication room, but the radar station located in Nanjing found a cluster of enemy planes in the sky above Shanghai and was flying in the direction of Xuzhou.

"Hey, the little devil doesn't seem to want to admit defeat!" Zhou Zhirou said excitedly, then picked up the phone and wanted to call Wuyishan Airport.And when he brought the phone to his lips, he thought of something, handed the phone to Tie Linfei, and said, "Commander, you're still here."

The reason why Zhou Zhirou was so cautious was naturally because he knew that he was not from a military academy, it was "knowing current affairs".Regarding this, Tie Linfei didn't point it out. After answering the call, he went straight to Wuyishan Airport and ordered the troops on standby to attack immediately to reinforce the Xuzhou battlefield.

Shanghai, in the Datong room on the third floor of the aviation building of Hongqiao Airport, as the opponent of Zhou Zhirou and Tie Linfei in this battle, the commander of the Chinese Air Force, Tokugawa Haotoshi, who is also freshly released by the Japanese army, is currently launching the "DiDiDi" In the sound of the report, he frowned and thought hard.Because of the popularity of air defense radar, the air combat in this time and space is completely different from that in that time and space.When there is no air defense radar, air combat relies more on the vision and judgment of the commander, and often a surprise victory can be achieved, and then the outcome of a battle or even a battle can be changed.But now, because air defense radar can provide early warning, sneak attacks and other combat methods that were once the most commonly used by aviation troops are useless.A sneak attack is a blind attack, but an open attack under the warning of air defense radar is a bit similar to an offensive war between ground troops.In this way, the requirements for the performance of fighter jets and the quality of pilots will be high.Originally, Tokugawa Hotoshi was quite conceited about commanding aviation operations, which was also the biggest reliance on him to agree to become an official without hesitation after receiving the invitation from Hideki Tojo.However, now, in the face of the cruel reality, he found that his greatest reliance did not seem to play a decisive role, and he became hesitant to make decisions on the fly.

"Your Excellency, the Qingpu radar station reported that a cluster of Chinese fighter jets appeared in the southwest direction. It is estimated to be the aviation unit taking off from Wuyishan Airport in China!" A communications staff officer suddenly stood up and reported loudly.

"Your Excellency, if this situation continues, the air battle in Xuzhou may turn into a decisive battle! Do you want to order the [-]rd Flying Division to attack?" Chief of Staff Miyamoto Takeshita said.

Tokugawa Hotoshi gritted his teeth hard, and suddenly said loudly: "Order Xiangcun Nanyi to attack immediately, and then call Major General Jiang Qi Xiongjun in Beiping to make them also dispatch immediately!" After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said: "A decisive battle is a decisive battle! I want to turn the airspace of Xuzhou into the Waterloo of the China Air Force!"

Among the three military branches of the cadet army, if you want to say which military branch is the most hated by the Japanese, it is naturally the air force.It didn’t take long for the Xuebing Army Air Force to be formed. However, because they were equipped with baiji and sky fortresses that were far more advanced than Japanese fighter planes at the beginning, although they have always been at a numerical disadvantage, they won more than they lost. Three to the disgrace of the Japanese air force.As a pioneer in Japan's aviation industry, Tokugawa Hotoshi naturally hopes that he can complete his achievements in one battle and avenge his shame.Prior to this, it was not that he had not considered defeating the Air Force of the Cadet Army in one fell swoop through a life-and-death decisive battle.But at that time, he didn't have this ability, but now, it seems that the conditions are ripe.

Among the high-level Japanese air forces, there are many people who hold the idea of ​​Totoshi Tokugawa.Therefore, although the first confrontation between the Chinese and Japanese aviation forces on the Xuzhou battlefield ended temporarily with the failure of the Japanese army, it failed to make them understand the situation and shake their confidence.Therefore, all the supreme commanders of the Japanese air force who participated in this decisive battle resolutely carried out the order after receiving Tokugawa Hotoshi's order.As a result, the scale of the Xuzhou air battle became larger and larger, and gradually replaced the ground troops as the protagonist of this battle.

In Chongqing, Tie Linfei and Zhou Zhirou received the battle report from the front, confirming that the Japanese army dispatched an unprecedented air force to the Xuzhou battlefield. Both of them stood up nervously and excitedly. Since then, their buttocks have never touched the seat again.They realized that if they could win this air battle and hit the Japanese army hard, it would play a role in promoting the progress of the war.After thinking about this, even though they have full confidence in the troops under their command, they can't help becoming a little uneasy——
