In the tower of Guangzhou No. 3 Airport, there are constant calls from staff on the phone and the radio. Zheng Shaoyu and Su Rui are sitting opposite each other. The two have not slept all night. As the sky gradually turns white, Su Rui's face also changes.
Gradually relax, as long as there is nothing wrong at night, the sky will be dominated by the Seventh Army during the day. Literature Museum.
At this time, a staff officer reported loudly: "Sir, one of our squadrons of Vixen fighter jets has arrived at the location of the Japanese fleet, and a squadron of Stukas has also arrived. Please give the next combat order!"
"good!"
Su Rui nodded happily and asked: "Have the two pilots who first discovered the Japanese fleet come back?"
"Sir, one of the pilots has returned, but the other one is still struggling with the Japanese fighter planes."
Su Rui and Zheng Shaoyu looked at each other and fell silent. In this situation where we were outnumbered, the possibility of the pilot coming back was really low.
Taking a long breath, Suri asked: "Do you know the pilot's serial number and name?"
"I know!" Zheng Shaoyu on the side interjected: "The pilot's name is Feng Xiaoming. He belongs to the 3rd Squadron of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Air Division. He is a very good pilot. Before this, he had already shot down six fighter planes. Originally,
We have decided to transfer him to the Second Air Division as the squadron leader in a few days, but..." At this point, Zheng Shaoyu sighed, with a trace of regret on his face. It is difficult to train a qualified pilot.
It is even more difficult to train an excellent pilot. This Feng Xiaoming already has a record of shooting down six enemy planes. As long as he shoots down four more, he will be an ace pilot, but... alas...
Suri was silent for a while before saying: "Don't worry, there is no news about him yet, we can still wait. The most important thing now is to mobilize another Stuka squadron, and we must let this Japanese fleet
Pay a heavy price!"
Having said this, Su Rui couldn't help but feel a little regretful. In fact, the most effective way to deal with warships is torpedo bombers. However, the Seventh Army has been focusing on land operations for a long time. Su Rui did not have enough manpower and energy to form a torpedo bomber squadron.
Otherwise, if there is a torpedo plane fleet now, Suri is 80% sure that he can send this fleet to the bottom of the sea.
Just when Suri was feeling regretful, suddenly there was a commotion nearby. Some staff officers in the tower stood up and looked eastward. For a while, the originally orderly tower became a little chaotic.
Seeing this, Zheng Shaoyu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Chief Su was sitting here now, and these guys didn't know how to give themselves some face. He frowned and shouted sternly: "What are you doing? You don't have to do anything anymore.
Really? Go back to your respective posts quickly!"
"Wait!" Su Rui stopped Zheng Shaoyu, stood up and looked eastward.
It was already around 6:30 in the morning, the sky had begun to brighten, the morning glow had begun to appear on the horizon, and the visibility had begun to improve. I only saw a small black dot flying in the distance to the east.
Slowly flew towards the airport.
Zheng Shaoyu looked at it and suddenly shouted: "Sir, that is Feng Xiaoming's fighter plane."
"Oh?" Su Rui was slightly startled and said quickly: "Quick, let's go to the runway." After that, Su Rui took the lead and walked out.
When Su Rui, Zheng Shaoyu and others arrived at the runway, ground crews and fire trucks and ambulances had already been waiting beside the runway. They only saw a black smoke-emitting Vixen fighter plane struggling to fly towards the airport.
Come over and see that it looks like it could fall to the ground at any time.
A ground crew member exclaimed: "Oh, my God, he can still fly back when the plane is damaged like this?"
Soon, the plane struggled to put down the landing gear, staggered towards the runway and landed slowly. When the landing gear touched the ground, the whole plane bounced up due to excessive force, and then landed heavily.
It hit the ground so hard that the whole plane almost fell to the ground, making the people beside the runway jump. Fortunately, the plane was strong enough and did not fall apart. Instead, it bounced on the runway for three seconds.
The wheels finally touched the ground, and then the plane began to taxi on the runway. When the Vixen fighter plane slid several hundred meters, it finally slowly stopped.
When the fighter plane taxied on the runway, the ambulance and fire trucks that were originally parked on the runway followed closely behind the plane. Less than five seconds after the plane stopped, the fire trucks and ambulances behind it
It also stopped. More than a dozen ground staff jumped out of the car, some holding flamethrowers, some carrying stretchers and rushed over. A male nurse quickly climbed into the cockpit of the aircraft and pulled the already beaten
The tattered cockpit was opened, and a pilot who was covered in blood was lifted out. The people below quickly caught him and put him on a stretcher. Then he got into the ambulance, sounded the siren, and drove away.
At this time, Su Rui, Zheng Shaoyu and several staff officers also ran over. Seeing the Vixen fighter plane that was beaten almost shapeless, Su Rui and others took a breath. At this time, the Vixen that appeared in front of them had already
It was riddled with holes. A small section of the plane's tail had been cut off, and bullet holes were everywhere on the fuselage. Suri even found shrapnel almost half the size of a washbasin under the belly of the plane.
"hiss……"
Zheng Shaoyu couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's a miracle that this plane can still fly back? This guy Feng Xiaoming is really lucky!"
Su Rui did not speak, but turned to Zheng Shaoyu and said solemnly: "Although according to the reports from the front line, the Japanese fleet canceled the plan to bomb the port after being discovered by our planes, but without Captain Feng Xiaoming's desperate blocking, the little
Japan is about to slip away, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they have made the first contribution. After this battle, your Air Force will give this captain a heavy reward!"
Zheng Shaoyu nodded solemnly and said: "Sir, please rest assured that when Captain Feng recovers from his injury and returns to the team, the staff will reward him heavily."
Suri nodded: "Well, such a talent should be put in a more important position!"
"Yes, the staff department understands."
Suri waved his hand: "Okay, let's go, let's go to the tower. If I don't beat the crap out of Japan's fleet today, I'll write my last name upside down!"
Just when Suri was furious, in the sky above the Japanese fleet, groups of Vixen fighter jets came after hearing the news and launched a series of fierce attacks on the Zero fighters in the sky. At this time, the commander in the sky was the Air Force.
Under the command of Liang Tiancheng, the commander of the third regiment, groups of Vixens fighters launched a tidal wave of offensives against the Zero fighters in the sky. The Zero fighters were inferior in both quantity and quality.
Under the attack of the Vixen fighter planes, which were all dominant, they fell to the sea like dumplings.
And at a mid-to-low altitude of three thousand meters, a group of black-painted vultures were hovering in the air, staring eagerly at the aircraft carrier group below. As soon as the firepower below weakened, they would pounce down and tear them into pieces.
Liang Tiancheng piloted a Vixen fighter jet hovering at an altitude of six thousand meters. He looked at the aircraft carrier group below that was desperately shooting into the sky, and connected to the channel of Huang Zikang, the captain of the bombing brigade: "Old Huang, how are you doing there? Can you do that?
Are you going to do something harsh to the warships below?"
Soon, Huang Zikang's voice came from the headset: "Captain Liang, the Japanese anti-aircraft firepower is very fierce now, and it is difficult for us to find a suitable bombing channel. Can you open up a few bombing channels for us so that we can carry out the bombing?"
bombing?"
Liang Tiancheng pondered for a while, then looked at the fewer and fewer Zero fighters in the sky, and then said: "Okay, I will order a team to open a few channels for you. You must move quickly, understand.
?"
"Alright, I got it!"
Soon, a small group of six Vixen fighter jets pounced towards the Japanese fleet from two directions. While they dived towards the Japanese fleet at a 45-degree angle, the six machine guns on the wings kept pouring out fire.
With tongues of fire igniting, a hail of hot bullets shot towards the fleet in front.
These six Vixen fighters quickly attracted most of the Japanese fleet's firepower. Two aircraft carriers, two battleships, four light and heavy cruisers and more than a dozen destroyers fired at them with hundreds of anti-aircraft guns of various calibers.
In the past, shells kept passing by them.
"boom……"
A 40mm caliber anti-aircraft shell hit a Vixen fighter plane, causing the fighter plane to explode in the air, and the fighter plane suddenly turned into a ball of fire in the air.
Although one fighter plane was lost, the Vixen fighter planes next to it still dived forward without hesitation. They kept changing directions, making S-shaped movements, rising and falling, constantly attracting anti-aircraft firepower from the warships.
.
Seeing that most of the fleet's firepower was attracted, Huang Zikang quickly connected to the team's channel and said to the members of the bombing squadron: "Squad 1, Squad 2, now that the Japanese aircraft's anti-aircraft firepower has weakened, you should immediately attack the Japanese aircraft."
The two aircraft carriers conduct vertical bombing, the third squad and the fourth squad immediately bomb the two battleships, and the fifth squad prepares reinforcements!"
"clear!"
As the words fell, twenty-four Stukas flew to an altitude of three thousand meters above the fleet despite the rain of bullets. Then, one after another, the fighter planes sank their noses like diving, and fell straight down.
A shrill siren echoed over the fleet.
"woo woo woo woo……"
Following the piercing sirens, the Stukas rushed down towards the fleet at a 90-degree angle.
"Quick...shoot and shoot down those Chinese planes!"
Seeing the eye-catching black vultures falling straight towards them, Qiu Yongshouyi, who was standing on the deck and commanding, waved his command knife and directed the anti-aircraft artillery to fire desperately into the sky, and tongues of flame rushed up into the sky...
