"Dapeng, please tell me how many times you have performed extreme dive and pull-up tactical maneuvers on the Yixing battlefield." Hengyu, a mechanic hiding in an air raid shelter at the airstrip on the ground, spoke anxiously on the wireless intercom.
Zhou Dapeng, who had already arrived over the capital, called.
"There's no way to count this." Zhou Dapeng shook his head slightly and looked coldly at the Japanese fleet circling ten kilometers ahead.
"You also know the shortcomings of the Merlin engine. I am afraid that the endurance of the secondary supercharger has reached its limit. I suggest that our aircraft fleet cooperate with ground anti-aircraft firepower to defend the Japanese aircraft fleet instead of air combat with them. I am afraid...
"Mechanic Hengyu looked up at the sky and suggested anxiously.
"That's impossible. The Japanese army still has bombers with aerial bombs attached. Putting them in the city defense circle means that the city will be bombed." Zhou Dapeng shook his head flatly and refused.
"If you continue the air combat, the engine will explode, and you will kill yourself and all your comrades. You can't do this." Hengyu couldn't help but roared into the intercom on the ground.
For a long time, Zhou Dapeng didn't speak.
"You bastard, you are talking! I am the commander-in-chief of the ground pilots. For the safety of the fighter planes, I order you not to engage in air combat anymore." Hengyu's roar continued to sound on the intercom.
Zhou Dapeng, who was silent, gently turned the call button on the plane and adjusted Hengyu's call channel to be the same as that of all fighters equipped with wireless intercoms. His voice was very soft but firm: "Brothers, you heard Hengyu's call channel."
This is the advice of the astronaut pilot. Our aircraft engine is very powerful, but its flaws are also very fatal. If we make another violent tactical action, the engine may stop in the air, and we may not even have a chance to parachute. I will give you the choice.
Opportunity, one: stay here and cooperate with ground anti-aircraft artillery and Japanese aircraft to fight. They dare not fall into low altitude and exhaust their fuel. They will leave. The fighters and people will have the greatest chance to save, but in that case,
Many of our tribesmen on the ground may lose their lives to Japanese bombings, children may lose their fathers, and husbands may lose their wives;
Two: Follow me, use our fighter planes to fly at high speeds far beyond theirs, and fight them on a battlefield far away from my city until I am the last plane and the last person; please note that no matter what choice you make, I will not
I blame you, life may be more difficult than death. Brothers who can survive after this war, the blue sky of the motherland still needs you."
"I'm sorry, Hengyu. Please express your gratitude to the brothers on the ground who are responsible for logistics and mechanical maintenance. Thank them for their long-term help. Please forgive me for my willfulness. Maybe this battle will make them unemployed. After the war,
If there is a suitable opportunity, go home with your sacrificed brothers! But please bury me on this land. I want to listen to the news of the final victory of the motherland here. Remember to tell my parents and grandparents that their son
My grandson is great. Also, bring me a message to Brother Liu, thanking him for bringing me here. I never thought that my ordinary life would be so gorgeous." Zhou Dapeng calmly finished speaking into the intercom.
, and hung up resolutely.
His plane suddenly turned on the afterburner, the engine roared, and the single plane rushed out of the formation and sped towards the direction of the Japanese aircraft formation.
Just like the ancient cavalry dueling the warriors charging at the front. The speed of the aircraft gradually increased from 260 kilometers per hour to 300...350...400...450...
.....It is still accelerating, like a meteor, rushing towards the huge formation of Japanese aircraft.
There was no charge horn or solemn cry. The Chinese fighter plane just used its ever-increasing speed to tell all its comrades to charge with me.
Behind him are all Chinese fighter planes, whether they are modified "Thunderbolt" or Hawker III.
They all made their own choices. In other words, the weak Chinese Air Force made their own choices.
As the last barrier in the sky for the Chinese compatriots, if in order to survive, they have to watch their compatriots lose their loved ones in the war, that is unbearable for every soldier. In this case, what strength can be retained?
What kind of flames? This is the decisive battle, the final decisive battle.
Even though there are thousands of people, I will still go!
Nearly thirty Chinese fighter planes moved forward like arrows, and then forward.
"Asshole, you bastard, if you have something to say, you can say it yourself. I won't tell you anything, ever, you bastard!" Hengyu dropped the phone in his hand and cursed.
He didn't want to cry, he didn't want to cry for these bastards who despised his life so much, but tears were already flowing freely on his face.
The most intense air battle broke out again.
This time, both sides know that there is not much time left for them. Not only are the Chinese fighter planes limited in fuel, but their engines have also become fragile after a long period of violent maneuvers. Every maneuver may be their last tactical move.
.The Japanese fighter planes also understood that if they did not fight to the death, their remaining fuel might not be enough to return to the mothership 300 kilometers away, and they would probably have no chance of survival if they fell on this battlefield.
Moreover, in the face of such a determined Chinese Air Force, the Japanese aircraft formation commander knew better that he must not retreat at this time. In the air, unlike on the ground, you can use bunkers to slow down the opponent's attack. The side that retreats first will only leave behind a fragile tail.
The enemy is chasing and killing, and there will be no luck in front of such high-speed fighter jets. Besides, although the Chinese have new fighter jets to help, there are no more than 30 in total, and the overall number is not even half of theirs. How can they retreat?
?
As soon as the two sides, who were both desperate, came into contact, both sides suffered losses. It was like two columns of cavalry charging at each other with long spears. The moment they came into contact, they fell on their backs. The fleets of planes on both sides charging face to face started shooting from 1,000 meters away, until the fighter planes of both sides were at high speed.
As they passed each other, the pilots on both sides never let go of the machine gun trigger handles.
The terrible rain of bullets is merciless. No matter who is hit, the consequences are the same.
At least five of the Chinese aircraft fleet fell to the ground with thick smoke. No matter how thick the armor of the Magic Modified "Thunderbolt" was, it could not prevent the engine from being hit and causing the aircraft to lose control. Relatively speaking, because the speed was relatively slower, the following
The three Hawk IIIs at the end of the array were in much better condition. Not only were they fine, but they also took advantage of the chaos and shot down a Japanese aircraft.
However, the Japanese aircraft suffered more heavy losses. The advantage of the 96 fighter was not in this kind of hedging, and the protection for the pilots was extremely weak. Among the ten aircraft that fell to the ground, more than 7 of them were because the pilots were shot by bullets.
hit and lost control of the aircraft.
After the confrontation, the two aircraft formations began to fight independently. The roar of fighter engines was everywhere in the sky for dozens of miles. From an altitude of 2,000 meters to a low altitude of 500 meters, the roaring figures of fighter planes could be seen everywhere.
From time to time, pilots whose planes were hit and caught fire ejected, but rarely from China. Fighters that were hit almost never left the battlefield. They either continued to fight until the plane completely lost control and crashed to the ground and exploded into a ball of fire, or they simply did not.
Don't worry about the engine anymore, turn on the afterburner to the maximum and have a final intimate contact with their nearest Japanese aircraft.
When the magically modified "Thunderbolt" with a speed of up to 600 kilometers per hour decided to engage in a head-to-head "bull-fighting", almost no Japanese aircraft could avoid it and would often be smashed into pieces.
In just five minutes, the casualties on both sides were so heavy that the air commanders on both sides were heartbroken. Whether they were Chinese or Japanese, almost every pilot who survived a round of battle had red eyes and sprayed
Jingqi is looking for another opponent, and then continues into the next battle where it's either you die or I live.
The Hawker III of "Jiangnan Earth Helmet" was already scarred and bruised, and the tail of the fighter plane was also smoking. It was not that it was hit, but that the aircraft engine had reached its limit after several consecutive extreme maneuvers. The next moment it
It is possible that the cylinder will completely explode. But he is very likely to become the first ace pilot in China to break through 10 red stars. He shot down two Japanese planes in a row within five minutes.
Two Japanese planes were eyeing him. Not only were there ace pilots in China, but also in Japan's Hainan Airlines. The dazzling five gold stars reminded everyone that they were also experienced in air combat, and they were extremely terrifying.
Chasing the "Steel Helmet of Jiangnan Earth", the Hawk III could only reach a speed of 300 kilometers per hour. From 1,500 meters to an ultra-low altitude of only 400 meters above the ground, the two Japanese aircraft were inseparable.
People on the ground watched a scene that made them extremely heartbroken. The brave fighter plane may have had no choice but to make a turn with a very small turning radius at low altitude. The Chinese people may not know what the ultimate turning radius is.
, did not know that if the turning radius of the Hawk III fighter jet was too small during the extreme turn, the wingtips would stall and fall into a terrible tail spin, but they knew that their plane was completely out of control and was swinging violently in the air, and it seemed to crash in the next second.
thing.
The Chinese Air Force has the "Four King Kongs", and the Japanese Navy also has the "Four Heavenly Kings". Yamashita Shichiro is one of them. He is the one with five gold stars painted on the fuselage.
When he saw that the Chinese fighter plane he had been chasing was about to fall into a terrible tail spin when it was forced to make a sharp turn to break away, Shichiro Yamashita finally showed a smile on his face. He was able to take down the Chinese fighter plane without firing a single bullet.
Ace, that is the best thing. After this battle, there will be as many as seven gold stars on his fuselage.
It is a pity that this Japanese ace pilot who was forced to land outside the Chinese capital after the war because his fighter plane was hit and was captured alive did not look back after passing by the Chinese fighter plane. Otherwise, he would have seen an incredible scene. Huo Huo, who had already fallen into a spin,
After falling 200 meters, Ke III miraculously recovered from the tail spin and lifted up again, and fired a bunch of bullets at him.
Then, his plane was hit by a bullet, and after running 2,000 meters, he was forced to make an emergency landing in a paddy field.
That was not an operational error by the "Steel Helmet of Jiangnan Earth", but a tactic he had practiced for a long time. He used the wingtip stall to fall into a tail spin to make the enemy mistakenly think that the aircraft was about to fall, and then used superhuman skills to recover from the tail spin.
Attack enemy aircraft.
However, that was already the last swan song of the "Steel Helmet of Jiangnan Earth". At this point, the engine of the Hawker III had been completely scrapped. The Hawker III, with its head held high and sprinting towards the sky, let out a cry, which was the sound of the engine completely exploding. It was as if the engine was completely blown.
The exhausted arrows were fired straight from high altitude, and the fighter plane turned its head downwards, heading downwards with billowing smoke.
"Skydiving!" Thousands of people were looking forward to it. At an altitude of less than 100 meters, an umbrella flower suddenly bloomed. Countless Chinese people rushed in the direction of the blooming umbrella flower to welcome the returning Chinese Air Force children.
However, they didn't know that the height at which the parachute opened was too low, really too low. Even in the future, with the assistance of a zero-height ejection seat, the fatality rate would be as high as over 50%.
...........
ps: Ahem! The air combat plot should have ended yesterday, but I always felt that something was missing, so there are two chapters like this. Perhaps I am still immersed in paying tribute to the Chinese Air Force. They are ours.
