The sky had just turned bright, and the hour hand had pointed at 7:30, but at this time the sky was covered with dark clouds and the visibility was very limited. The gloomy sky was as depressed as people were in a mood. Especially for the people in Jinxi City, Su Dao had issued a notice that because the Japanese bandits were unsuccessful and attempted to attack Jinxi again, Su Dao asked the people of the whole city to make all defenses and fight the enemy. Jinxi City entered a state of wartime control. It was prohibited to go out from 8 o'clock every day to 7 o'clock the next day. If you are fine during the day, stay at home as much as possible to avoid being injured by stray bullets.

The war is coming, and it is like a huge blow to the people in Jinxi who have just lived a happy life for less than two months. Countless people can only follow Su Dao's orders and reduce the time to go out as much as possible. Looking at the situation in the air, there is a heavy snowfall. Since December, snow in the northeast region seems to have become a common occurrence. Most of the people here have summarized some experience and can judge the size of the snow based on the changes in the weather.

Unfortunately, looking at the current trend in the sky, this snow is definitely not small.

Jinxi Air Force Airport,

The ground crews are undergoing the final inspection before takeoff. The upcoming university seems to be a test for them, and it is also a great challenge for the takeoff and landing of fighter jets. Pilots with no experience, even themselves do not know the success rate of takeoff and landing in the snow.

When they got up in the morning, the Air Force pilots received a new mission, aiming to the mountainous area in the northeast corner of Lingyuan, where the Air Force had to complete the bombing before nine o'clock in the morning. Looking at the increasingly dense dark clouds in the sky, the weather seemed not suitable for flight.

Fighters took off from the airport. At this time, the airport had already changed its original appearance and had low requirements for take-off and landing. The engineers built a large area of ​​open space next to which the Air Force fighter jets could take off, and the original runway was used as bombers to take off.

As a result, the launch time of the Air Force has been greatly reduced. In less than twenty minutes, twenty b24 bombers, thirty Stuka dive bombers and forty bf109e3 fighters completed the formation in the air in just twenty minutes.

Five BF109e3 fighter jets and three Stuka bombers formed an advance detachment and went to the target for reconnaissance. They had already reconnaissed several times in that area, but the ground troops still found the shadow of the enemy there. This made the air force pilots feel that they were faceless.

This is not just a shame to the Air Force, but also indicates that the Air Force's intelligence is inaccurate. It is possible that a small group of Kwantung Army troops with hundreds or one or two thousand people escaped air reconnaissance, but this is a whole division, with more than 20,000 troops able to escape the Air Force's reconnaissance, which seems to be enough to show that the Air Force is wasting resources.

In just less than half an hour, eight pilots filled with anger flew over the target. Like the previous reconnaissance, they did not find any signs of the enemy. The eight fighter jets hovered over the sky for two full circles, but still did not find them.

"Captain, I still didn't find it." After the second lap of reconnaissance was completed, a pilot said to his captain as if he was discouraged.

"Peng Yongchang, have you seen the path at three o'clock? Fly lower and take a look. Pay attention to the traces of the army passing by on the road." Li Fei was having a headache, and suddenly remembered that the ground troops were talking about the traces on the road and found that the Japanese division had entered here. Li Fei immediately ordered.

"I understand!" Peng Yongchang responded. Then he pulled the joystick and the fighter changed direction instantly. He quickly approached the ground at a low angle. Due to the mountain, Peng Yongchang could not fly the fighter too low and could only maintain a height equal to the top of the mountain. Therefore, the distance between him and the ground was still one or two hundred meters. It was a dream to see the footprints on the ground clearly.

When Peng Yongchang flew forward for about a minute and still did not find the target, he was about to take the risk of lowering the height of the fighter plane again, he suddenly saw something, a defensive position hidden in the concave and convex part of the mountain. Peng Yongchang had even seen something similar to a heavy machine gun. It was just that the distance was too far, and there was no way to confirm it. However, the fortifications composed of sandbags were enough to prove that there were enemy troops here.

"Captain, the Japanese were really secretive when they discovered the enemy's fortifications. If I hadn't been sharp-eyed, they might have been able to escape." Peng Yongchang reported while flying the fighter plane towards the target he found. When he was about to reach the sky above the target, Peng Yongchang threw down one of the two 50kg bombs he carried under the wing without hesitation.

'boom!'

With a violent explosion, the bomb did not hit the fortification directly. Because the fortifications were set up enough and the cover of the mountain, it was still difficult to hit the fortifications directly. Although the explosion did not hit the fortifications directly, it also exploded the Japanese hidden inside, which made Peng Yongchang even more sure that there was news of the enemy here.

"Captain, I saw the Japanese." Peng Yongchang hurriedly reported the situation here to Li Fei, a few kilometers away.

"You can come back, save some bombs first and let the brothers of Stuka Squadron play first." Li Fei ordered evilly, and a more evil expression appeared on his face.

The communication between the combat squadron and the Stuka squadron is not on the same channel. This is mainly to prevent radio chaos. Under normal circumstances, each squadron or squadron maintains radio communication between each squadron and each squadron during combat. Of course, there are also overall communications, which depends on the specific situation.

Just like this time, Su Dao ordered that all the Air Force communications be set on one channel, and subsequent fighter jets are prohibited from random use of radio and closely observe the situation on the battlefield. What Peng Yongchang said just now was not only heard by the seven comrades not far from him, but also by the fighter jets, Stuka Squadron and Bomber Squadron flying towards the rear.

Understanding the situation, the three Stukas quickly began to pull the fighter upwards. The altitude of five or six hundred meters they are now is not enough for them to dive. Generally, they will fly the fighter to a height of four or five thousand meters first, and then dive at a high angle, because at an altitude of about one thousand meters, they must pull the fighter up, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. As for the ju87b1 fighter equipped by the Stuka Squadron, they can only carry a 500kg bomb at most, and after modification, they can carry a 500kg bomb or a 250kg bomb, and four 50kg bombs under the wings. Of course, overload short-range bombing is exceptional.

It is obvious that the three Stuka dive bombers of this advance team carried a 250kg bomb and four 50kg-class aviation bombs. Their purpose was to explore the enemy's position, and the specific bombing mission was completed by the bomber formations and Stuka squadrons behind them.

When a Stuka dive bomber flew to an altitude of nearly 6,000 meters, he suddenly turned around and the fighter suddenly bumped into the ground in a normal state, fixing the whistle installed on the landing gear and the unique sound made by the shape of the Stuka fighter rubbing with the air.

This is definitely a terrifying existence. When Li Fei and others heard this sound, they shivered all over. Fortunately, the Stuka dive bomber belonged to them. If it were the Japanese, the army brothers would probably be scared to death even if they were scared.

Li Fei's guess was not wrong. Stuka was indeed used to scare people. In addition to effectively bombing the enemy, there have been many examples in history. When the German Stuka bombers threw the bombs and fired up all the bullets in the machine gun, they did not choose to return to the airport for supply. Instead, they pulled the fighter up again and again, and then dived down. They made that unique sound, which scared the French army so much that they had to give up their positions and retreat.

‘Ming! Ming! Ming! Ming! Ming!’

Sharp and strange screams came from the air. Basically, everyone here had never heard the sound of Stuka dive bombers, and even Li Fei and others were no exception. It was not until now that they realized Stuka's power, and the Kanto soldiers below could not bear the loneliness and exposed their heads to watch the situation in the air.

This sound made them feel cold on their backs and a feeling of fear all over their bodies. They could not stop the strong temptation in their hearts, so they could only expose their heads in groups of three or three to try to see what was going on outside.

It turns out that there is no benefit to being too curious. Ju87b1 type Stuka cannot carry out 90-degree vertical bombing. The exposed heads of the Kanto soldiers on the ground also guided the correct targets for the Stuka pilots. During the dive, the angle was slightly adjusted and rushed directly to the Kanto soldiers with basically invisible changes.

Immediately afterwards, a blockbuster bomb directly escaped from Stuka. At this time, Stuka directly changed the fighter's posture. After dropping the bomb, he was not interested in checking whether it hits. He directly pulled the fighter high and planned to do it again.

'boom!'

The huge explosion sounded throughout the valley. Due to the curiosity of the Kanto soldiers and the large number of Kanto soldiers squeezing into such a narrow valley, the effect of this bomb was surprisingly ideal. The 250kg-level aviation bomb just now was dropped, and the bomb did not seem to have forgotten its mission. At the same time as the explosion, it also took away the lives of more than 20 Kanto soldiers.
Chapter completed!
