"Climb, climb!" Aoki Toshihide shouted anxiously: "Don't be obsessed with fighting!"
At the same time, without stopping, he pulled the nose of the aircraft and climbed up.
Aoki Toshihide's decision was right. The smoke from the enemy's "cannonballs" in front has not dissipated. At this time, if he forced his way in to join the battle, he would only fall into passivity... In the case of low visibility, "zero battle"
"The maneuverability of the aircraft cannot be effectively used because the pilot cannot clearly see the enemy's position. Of course, he does not know where to hide or how to bite the tail."
On the other hand, the climbing performance of the "Zero War" is very superior. If you encounter any unexpected situation, you can basically choose to climb, just like Yingjiang's fighter plane will choose to dive if it is in a disadvantageous situation.
However, Aoki Toshihide's order was delayed. When the Japanese pilot received the order, the fighter plane had already broken into the smoke airspace at high speed and connected with the enemy plane... Once the enemy plane caught fire, it was basically a fatal blow.
It is difficult to choose to climb or dive involuntarily.
For example, if there is an enemy plane aiming at you right in front of you, climbing will only expose a large area of your aircraft to the enemy's gunfire, which is no different than seeking death.
For another example, "Zero War" is aiming at an enemy aircraft. It is very likely to hit the target just by firing. Climbing means missing the target and letting go of an excellent opportunity.
In addition, Japanese pilots generally had full confidence in "zero combat", so in the end only three fighters followed Aoki Toshihide and climbed to high altitudes.
There were no enemy planes in pursuit.
Because Chinese pilots and Yingjiang pilots have learned a lesson: never follow the Japanese "zero battle" to climb, that almost means being shot down by the enemy.
But Aoki Toshii discovered that this was not a good thing, because from the sound of gunfire in the smoke below, it could be heard that most of the "zero battles" were entangled and unable to escape.
Aoki Toshii looked around, then gritted his teeth and ordered: "Go back and rescue them!"
Toshii Aoki should have chosen another airspace with good visibility as the battlefield, which would be more advantageous in the "zero battle" where maneuverability can crush enemy aircraft.
But at that moment, Aoki Toshihide made a little calculation in his mind:
Only four planes rushed out, and including the two that were blown up, there were only six planes. In other words, there were still six planes trapped in the battle group.
Now that the enemy is ignoring the four fighters of Toshiei Aoki, do we have to wait for the enemy to deal with those six before dealing with them?
No, never!
This is not because Aoki Toshii is reluctant to part with the fighter plane or his subordinates, but he has thought of one thing: the "Zero Fighter" is a fighter plane that the empire is proud of, and it can achieve a record of 1 to 6 against the Eagle Fighter on the battlefield.
The fighter plane is an invincible weapon for the empire. If more than half of it is lost in his hands, not to mention his position as squadron commander, even his pilot career may be over.
Therefore, he had to go back.
Aoki Toshii's idea is that with the excellent performance of "Zero War", even if he is ambushed by the enemy and caught off guard, as long as we unite together and fight with all our strength, there is still a chance to turn the tide!
Combining these factors, Aoki Toshihide without hesitation took the four fighters that broke out of the battle group and occupied a favorable position, turned a corner and dived down.
However, when Toshii Aoki rushed back to the battlefield, he immediately realized that something was wrong with the situation. The enemy's fighter planes seemed to be much more flexible than those he had seen before.
This is impossible!
Aoki Toshihide was secretly surprised. Only five days ago, the Hawker 81 they intercepted the Hawker pilots was so clumsy, and those were still first-line pilots. Now these opponents are either second-tier pilots or Chinese pilots.
How can a pilot be more flexible than before?
But the facts were before Toshii Aoki. Toshii Aoki tried several times to bite the target's tail but failed.
In fact, this is not because Hawker 81 is more flexible.
Of course, it would not be an exaggeration to say it is flexible.
Because Hawker 81 is chasing the target at the highest speed, and the flight trajectory is still unpredictable and wavy, it will not be easy for "Zero War" to bite its tail at this time... This is not just because the speed cannot keep up,
In fact, the speed of "Zero War" and "Hawker 81" are not much different. The difference between the speed of 533 and 547 is only 14 kilometers per hour, which is almost negligible at a certain point.
The problem is... when the "Zero War" had to fly at high speed in order to bite the tail of the Hawker 81, the instability of the "Zero War" was exposed, and it completely lost its flexibility at low speeds.
Under the circumstances, Hawke 81 naturally appears to be more flexible.
Li Yueying was driving a fighter plane chasing a "Zero Fighter".
This is Li Yueying's first actual combat.
Before the war started, Li Yueying was so nervous that her palms were sweating. When she saw the enemy plane flying towards her from a distance, she saw the sunrise pattern on the fuselage of the "Zero" fighter jet. The sunlight shining on it was bloody red.
It stung her eyes like blood.
Li Yueying felt her mouth was dry and her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
At that moment, Li Yueying suddenly had an idea. She was wondering if she had done something stupid. She could have stayed away from all this and done her own thing at the airport, but she had to put herself in this dangerous battlefield.
.
But the thought only passed by for a moment.
Li Yueying's mind immediately flashed back to the images of Chinese people massacred by the Japanese, the cities that were bombed by the enemy and the starving people, and the brothers and sisters who were suffering in the enemy-occupied areas...
No one wants to come to this battlefield, they forced me!
Thinking of this, Li Yueying suddenly gained courage, and then flew the fighter plane towards the target without hesitation.
The first round of shooting did not hit the enemy plane because Li Yueying was too impatient and fired at the enemy from a distance of more than 500 meters.
This distance is almost the limit of air combat, and whether you can hit or not depends entirely on luck.
The result was that the enemy fighter plane jumped over from the flank with a "whoosh" sound...Although frontal shooting is a good opportunity, because the distance between the enemy and ourselves is getting closer and closer and is relatively stable, but because we are moving towards each other, the opportunity is equal and
Passed by in a flash.
Li Yueying thought that the reason why the enemy's bullets did not hit her was probably because of the interference of the wave of bombs. This could be regarded as giving her an extra chance, which could also be said to be a life.
Then Li Yueying did not hesitate to use the wave and tail-biting tactics to follow.
It was a bit unfamiliar at first, and I kept chasing and missing. After all, this was actual combat, and the flight path of the target was always unexpected.
But after a little adaptation, Li Yueying grasped the rhythm and found the trick... When she found that the target deviated from her tracking route, she could rely on the speed maintained by the Hawk 81 to quickly and steadily re-engage.
In other words, as long as the method is appropriate, the target will never be able to escape the tail bite of waves!
