Two Japanese patrol planes were shot down, and the situation in Shanxi Province began to become serious. The supplemented 21st Flying Team began to frequently dispatch to conduct reconnaissance in the Liantai area.
Gao Hongming did not show any weakness. He purchased six sets of MK8 microwave fire control radars from a weapons store and installed them in a ring shape on a mountain dozens of kilometers away from Liantai County. Each radar is a radar station.
The maximum detection range of this kind of radar is 40 to 60 kilometers. With these six sets of radars, the Liantai Militia Group has enough warning time and no longer has to worry about Japanese aircraft sneak attacks on the Liantai Militia Group.
However, radar was still the top secret of each country at this time, so only Huang Huaimin and a very few people knew about the establishment of the radar station.
With the early warning and guidance of the radar station, the immature flying group could detect the incoming Japanese aircraft in time. In just one week, seven air battles broke out between the two sides, and the number of fighter aircraft dispatched by both sides reached hundreds. In this
During the week, Huang Kebiao and his colleagues flew P-47 Thunder fighters and destroyed and damaged twenty-eight Japanese aircraft, while they themselves also lost six P-47 fighters.
Fortunately, only fighter planes were lost. In view of the P-47's strong and thick protective steel plates, those downed aircraft basically did not explode on the spot, which also provided the pilots with sufficient time to parachute to escape.
Since the airspace between the two sides was all around Liantai County, these pilots were quickly rescued by the search team after parachuting. After returning to the flying group, they underwent a short period of training and recovery before flying into the air again.
In the air battles, the originally immature Liantai Militia Flying Group gradually matured, while their opponents were just the opposite. Such high-intensity air battles and losses also made the pilots of the Japanese 21st Flying Group begin to re-examine their
this opponent.

On a rugged mountain road, a convoy of two cars and a truck was driving hard.
Sitting in the back seat of the car were two white men with yellow hair and high noses and a national army officer wearing a khaki military uniform.
The Caucasian man sitting on the far left was about thirty years old. He looked at the flying dust outside the car window and frowned. He said to the national army officer sitting in the passenger compartment in less fluent Chinese: "中文字幕"
Mr. Xiao, we have been driving on this road for almost three hours, can you give me a definite answer, how long will it take for us to arrive in Liantai County?"
The lieutenant colonel officer hurriedly said: "Colonel Muller, don't worry, I have been to Liantai County, which is still more than 20 kilometers away from here. We will be there in about half an hour."
"Half an hour?" The middle-aged man known as Colonel Mueller whispered before leaning back on his seat again.
The slightly younger man next to him rubbed his waist and complained: "I never want to come to the dilapidated mountain roads of this backward country again... Along the way, I feel that my waist no longer belongs to me.
Already."
Muller glanced at him and said in German with a serious expression: "Major Michel, you have to remember that our visit to China this time is not for fun, but for a mission personally issued by the head of state. All we have to do is to do everything possible.
The solution is done, but complain!"
"Colonel, I was wrong." Seeing his boss's serious expression, Michel quickly apologized. He and Mueller had known each other for many years, and even this boss was not easy to get along with.
"It's okay to know you're wrong."
Mueller saw that Michelle had admitted his mistake and stopped saying anything. He leaned back on his seat and planned to close his eyes for a while. However, before he could close his eyes, he felt the driver brake suddenly and the car was going very fast.
After slowing down, Muller's head hit the backrest of the front seat because he braked too sharply, and his head started to buzz.
With the sound of sudden braking, the car finally stopped.
"Asshole...what the hell is going on?"
Mueller, whose head was hit so hard that he felt gloomy for a while, kept covering his head, while Michelle next to him didn't fare much better. He was so angry that he started to curse.
"Sir... there is a checkpoint ahead and we are stopped." The Chinese driver said quickly.
"Checkpoint?"
Muller was startled. He opened the curtains and saw a wooden sentry box standing in the corner ahead. Sandbags were set up on both sides of the road. Each sandbag also had a machine gun and a man holding a submachine gun.
The sergeant was standing on the roadside signaling the vehicle to stop.
This was not a big deal at first, because he had seen many such scenes along the way, but this time his eyes suddenly stagnated, and his breathing became rapid, because he clearly saw that the soldiers on the opposite side were actually a group of Germans.
Soldier.
That's right, the Type 36 Wehrmacht uniform, the Type 35 helmet, the boots, the German soldier's unique cylindrical iron can with a gas mask on his waist, and the MP40 Schmeisser submachine gun.
"God...why are there imperial soldiers here?" Michelle, who was sitting next to him, opened her mouth wide and had an incredible look in her eyes.
The two looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.
However, the surprise was soon relieved. As the sergeant walked in quickly, they saw clearly that the soldier walking towards them had an Asian face.
At this time, the national army lieutenant colonel sitting in the passenger compartment also got out of the car. Before he could speak, the sergeant asked: "State your identity, name and purpose of visit!"
With a slightly reserved expression, the lieutenant colonel took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to the noncommissioned officer, "I am Lieutenant Colonel Bai Xian from the Chongqing Attendant 2 Foreign Affairs Office. This time I am accompanying two German envoys to Liantai County on business.
, please move the roadblock quickly and let us pass."
The noncommissioned officer took the ID and checked it and returned it to Bai Xian. Then he walked to the car and knocked on the window of the back seat. Mueller, who was sitting in the car, rolled down the window. The noncommissioned officer glanced at the passenger with sharp eyes.
The two people in the back row looked at it carefully for a while before turning and leaving. Before leaving, they just said: "You guys wait here."
Watching the noncommissioned officer's leaving figure, Mueller and Michel looked at each other.
Michelle couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, it seems that the Japanese government is right. There is indeed something wrong with this Liantai militia group. These people are actually equipped with all the weapons of the empire. But as far as I know, we had three years ago."
All military aid to China was stopped. Where did you get these things?"
Muller whispered: "This is exactly the reason why we are here this time. If this army is all equipped with imperial standard weapons and uniforms, it means that someone within the empire is secretly selling weapons to the Chinese. So no matter what, we
