Koichi Kobayashi belongs to the 2nd Flying Group of Japan's 4th Flying Division. The whole group has nearly 80 fighter planes. They are the first batch to transfer this time, with a total of about 40 fighter planes. They just discovered this
The Heinkel III bombers, which were escorted by more than a dozen Wildcat fighters, went through a fierce battle and took advantage of their numerical advantage to destroy eight of the opponent's fighter planes at the cost of two casualties. At this moment, when morale was high, those who killed the Reds
The stunned Japanese pilots saw dozens of "Wildcats" coming from the other side, and everyone cheered. In their opinion, this was the best military achievement!
Although they lost four fighter planes at the beginning, many people believed that this was only because they were caught off guard by the opponent. Now that they were prepared, these shameful sneak attackers, Chiang Kai-shek, could no longer take advantage.
Many pilots cheered on the radio about hunting China turkeys and flew their fighter planes towards this new group of aircraft! But as soon as the battle began, this new group of aircraft gave them a blow in the head.
Due to Kubotsuka Yosuke's warning, Kobayashi Koichi could only follow him closely and faithfully act as a wingman. However, as the battle progressed, Kobayashi Koichi's expression became increasingly serious.
At this time, Yosuke Kubotsuka's voice sounded in my ears: "Kobayashi-kun, hurry up and enter the clouds with me!"
"Hai!" Kobayashi Koichi didn't dare to neglect, and quickly pulled the joystick, and the man and the plane flew into the clouds.
In the sky, white clouds passed by the cockpit. This kind of cloudy weather was most suitable for ambushing the enemy, but it was also easy to be ambushed by the enemy. The deflected clouds and fog provided the best hiding place for both the enemy and us.
Suddenly, two wild...well, no, they should be Hellcat fighter jets appeared between the clouds. Although their speed was not too fast, their climbing movements were very flexible, and they suddenly pounced on the ground below.
Ryuji Hirata and his wingman behind him.
"Hirata-kun, be careful, there are two enemy planes behind you!" Kobayashi Koichi shouted.
Hirata Ryuji reacted very quickly and immediately dived and turned to avoid. Six tongues of flames just passed by his fuselage. However, the wingman behind him was not so lucky. His wingman was hit by three bullet chains that glowed orange-red.
The fuel tank was removed. The entire fighter plane turned into a ball of fire at high altitude on the spot.
"Kobayashi-kun, did you see it? These are the pilots of the Seventh Army and their Hellcat fighters. You must be alert!" Yosuke Kubotsuka's stern voice rang in Koichi Kobayashi's headset.
Get up, "Come down with me immediately to support Hirata-kun, go down!" As soon as Kubotsuka Yosuke's voice fell, the Type 97 land attack aircraft he piloted rushed towards a Hellcat below. Kobayashi Mitsuyoshi was afraid of himself
Even if something happened to the lead plane, he also controlled his own fighter plane and followed closely behind Kubotsuka Yosuke.
It cannot be said that the skills of the Japanese pilots are not good, nor that they are not brave, but when Yosuke Kubotsuka rushed down with Koichi Kobayashi, the battle had already become one-sided. Under the attack of two Hellcats descending from the sky, one
The Japanese Type 97 Land Attack volleyed and exploded. The other one luckily escaped, which also made Kubotsuka Yosuke and Kobayashi Koichi who came to the rescue feel very angry and helpless.
After waking up, their three planes launched a siege against the two Hellcats, but the two cunning Chinese fighters had already discovered their intention, and they began to jump and turn. And their turning speed was surprisingly fast.
, Sanliang was about to fly out of the range of the Japanese army, and was climbing rapidly. Koichi Kobayashi, who had just dived from a high altitude, had to fly level for a distance after entering the attack route, but the acceleration brought by the dive from a high altitude was not enough.
It did not disappear because of the leveling. The result of the warning was that the nose of the aircraft kept rising, which resulted in him not being able to aim at the enemy aircraft immediately after entering the shooting range. The crosshair was just above the enemy aircraft because the nose of the aircraft was raised.
At this time, the two Chinese fighter planes just jumped up and turned, and just entered Kobayashi Koichi's sight. Fire! The four 7.7 mm caliber machine guns of the 97 land attack fighter Kobayashi Koichi was sitting on quickly sprayed.
Flames erupted, and the bullet hit the Hellcat fighter jet more than 600 meters away.
At this time, a scene that almost frightened Kobayashi appeared. Although the fighter plane that had obviously been hit emitted a plume of black smoke, it did not explode in the air as Kobayashi expected, but continued to fly rapidly.
Climbing up, he immediately rushed toward him with a downward kick.
"Da da da……"
A burst of dazzling flashes flashed in front of the corner of Kobayashi Koichi's eyes. At this time, Kobayashi Koichi was almost scared to death. Under the conditioned reflex, he pulled the joystick with all his strength, and the entire 97 land attack aircraft sped rapidly.
After spinning for several times, Kobayashi saw countless bullets passing by him. When he escaped from the fire net, he looked at himself and saw that there were no missing parts on his body, and then he felt a cold sweat.
It has already penetrated the whole body.
"Baga, how come these Chinese fighter planes are so strong? We clearly hit them just now, so why didn't they crash?" Kobayashi Koichi kept yelling in the communicator.
"Baga!" The same national curse rang in his headset, and the voice of Kubotsuka Yosuke also came over: "Kobayashi, you bastard, you are still here thinking nonsense, these are China's shrew fighter planes, they
Its performance is much better than that of the Empire's fighter planes. Don't confuse it with the Chinese fighter planes you encountered before. They are very sturdy. Unless you use a 20mm cannon or hit their fuel tanks, it will be difficult to kill them all at once.
Just destroy them, if you dare to be distracted again, you are seeking death!"
"Hai!" Kobayashi regained his composure and immediately threw himself into the tense air battle...
While the fighters of both sides were fighting fiercely in the air, the Heinkel III model also completely saw what had just happened. At this time, the left engine of the bomber had been destroyed. The members of the bomber
I was stunned as I watched the explosions in the sky and the fighter planes falling with thick smoke.
Dr. Rosen looked at the sudden appearance of fighter planes like a pack of wolves flocking to a flock of sheep, and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "God, are these fighter planes from the Seventh Army? Why are they so different from the National Government's fighter planes?"
How much? It’s incredible.”
Just now, they saw with their own eyes that less than two hundred meters away from their window, a fighter plane had just jumped up and turned, and happened to enter the attack path of a fighter plane that looked like a wildcat. The fighter plane immediately opened fire with six heavy machine guns.
Hundreds of orange-red projectiles were immediately sprayed out. The Japanese Type 97 land attack aircraft was hit and caught fire on the spot, followed by the fuselage. The powerful machine gun bullets were not polite to Jiang Jiuqi.
The aluminum fuselage of the land attack aircraft was torn to pieces and disintegrated in the air, and the red fire seemed to make the sky red.
Dr. Rosen asked in surprise and amazement: "Albina Bornhill, do you know what kind of fighter this is?"
The gorgeous woman standing behind Rosen also showed a hint of surprise in her steady eyes. She shook her head and whispered: "Dr. Rosen, I don't know either, but it seems that these new fighters are similar to the American Wildcat fighters.
It’s very similar, it’s an enlarged version of a wildcat, and it also looks very American!”
"But the problem is that I have never heard of Americans equipped with this fighter aircraft. This is what surprises me the most." Dr. Rosen sighed and then said: "If this fighter aircraft does not come from the United States, then
Where did it come from? Was it made by China itself?"
A wry smile appeared in the woman's eyes, "If you want me to believe that this is a plane made by China itself, I would rather believe that today is the day God descends."
As soon as the woman named Albina Bornhill finished speaking, the surrounding army second lieutenant and two orderlies showed a smile on their faces who had not yet recovered from their nervousness. In their opinion, they were behind.
China can also make some kitchen knives and hoes, so forget it and let them make airplanes, but now they finally don't have to die, which feels really good.
Unlike Dr. Rosen and the others who breathed a sigh of relief, under the attack of this new batch of fighter planes, the Japanese aircraft losses were increasing. At this time, many Japanese pilots also saw that the flight of these Chinese fighter pilots
The technology and combat skills are not good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are rookies. It stands to reason that such rookie pilots should not be able to last long in their hands, and they will soon be wiped out by them. But the problem is that they
The performance of the aircraft they pilot is really outstanding, especially the cutting radius angle of their fighters is so small that whenever they manage to bite the tail of a Hellcat fighter jet, that fighter jet will use the small radius to turn.
To avoid their attacks. And because the turning performance of the Type 97 land attack aircraft is so far behind this Hellcat fighter, those Chinese pilots can often avert danger by relying on such tricks with the least technical content. This
The depressing result caused many Japanese pilots to almost suffer from internal injuries.
Under the observation of Dr. Rosen and several German soldiers in the cabin, the air battle gradually came to an end after more than ten minutes. The Japanese aircraft suffered heavy losses, and only a dozen of the more than 40 fighter planes were still fighting.
, and after a few more minutes, these Japanese planes finally couldn't hold on any longer and scattered and fled towards the north.
After driving away these Japanese planes, two fighter planes immediately approached the bomber where Rosen was located from the left and right sides. They were so close that Dr. Rosen and the German soldiers and officers in the cabin
Everyone could see the young face of the pilot in the cabin.
Soon, the driver's voice came from the cab: "Sir, we have connected with their communications. They asked us to follow them. The destination is Guangzhou!"
