The No. 214 Hawker 3 fighter jet with the blue sky and white sun emblem painted on its wing quickly killed a Type 96 carrier-based aircraft with the sun painted on it, and then "bounced" to lift it up in one go. The shooting skills were superb to perfection. This scene was praised by both sides of the Huangpu River. Many people saw it and cheered secretly!
carefree!
So refreshing!
It’s so relieving!
The Chinese Air Force has never been so proud.
No. 401 shot down an enemy plane first.
On the 214th, a Type 96 carrier-based aircraft was shot down.
In an instant, all the Chinese people on both sides of the Pujiang River stamped their feet and covered their mouths in cheers.
Because he didn't dare to cheer and celebrate loudly, the little devil was too bad and was afraid of being heard.
In fact, the pilots on both sides during the fierce battle could not hear the cheers or curses from anyone on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, but the people were afraid!
For a long time, ordinary people could only see the Japanese military planes showing off their power over the Huangpu River. Today, they were very happy to see a large number of Chinese Air Force planes attacking the Japanese military planes.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Chinese Air Force has an absolute advantage today because it has more than 70 military aircraft, which is almost twice the number of the Japanese Air Force.
But what ordinary people don’t know is that the performance of more than half of Chinese military aircraft is not as good as the Type 95 and Type 96 carrier-based aircraft. Only the Hawker 3 and Fighter MKI fighter jets can barely compete with Japanese fighters in a duel.
The performance of the Boeing 281 was originally okay, but because the communication system on the fighter plane was removed, it could only operate alone, and its combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. Therefore, the main mission of the Boeing 281 today is to participate in the attack on Japanese warships on the Huangpu River.
The performance of the remaining Hawker 2 and Hawker 1 lags far behind. Today, these fighters are used to suppress the artillery fire of the Japanese Third Fleet, open up gaps in the Japanese Third Fleet's air defense, and create gaps for bombers.
Faced with the impact of the Chinese Air Force's Hawker 1 Hawker 2 and Boeing 281, the Japanese Third Fleet did not dare to be careless. Although the combat maneuverability of these fighters was poor, the bombs they dropped were no more powerful than other fighters. Small.
Especially the Boeing 281, which flies relatively fast and has a small fuselage, shuttles among Japanese ships and specifically attacks the sailors on Japanese ships.
Just now, Zhou Zhihan shot down an enemy plane with lightning speed. Ren Yunge, who was sitting at the tail of the No. 903 bomber, could see it clearly. The young people cheered loudly and told Falcon, Sidewinder, and Hawkeye vividly.
Everyone was in high spirits and greatly encouraged!
After killing two enemy planes at the beginning, the morale of the Chinese Air Force increased.
The Falcon was diving, making simple maneuvers from time to time to avoid the bombardment of enemy ship-borne anti-aircraft weapons on the water.
The Chinese bomber group flew from the east and dived to attack the Japanese surface warships under the sun. From time to time, Japanese fighter planes took advantage of the chaos and entered the group to intercept and shoot. As soon as they started to dive, one bomber was hit on the wing by the cannon of the Type 95 attack aircraft. , with thick smoke billowing out, we could only withdraw from the battlefield and return to Jianqiao Airport.
At present, Hongqiao Airport can no longer land. Chinese military planes took off from Hongqiao Airport in the morning, which has been known to the Japanese army. At this time, the battlefields between the two sides were too close. The military planes were parked at Hongqiao Airport and were easily bombarded by the Japanese army.
Seeing a bomber withdrawing from the battlefield, Gao Zhihang immediately ordered a Hawker 2 to escort it.
Young Chinese Air Force teamwork.
A Hawker 2 immediately went to escort the Japanese fighter planes to prevent them from attacking the wounded bomber.
The young Chinese Air Force fought hard.
The young Chinese Air Force uses their passion and bravery to make up for their technical shortcomings and the shortcomings of fighter aircraft performance.
The Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are looking at this young army. They hope to see from this army that China is still full of vigor and vitality. If they see that China has young people, it will never perish!
Now, the various concessions of the world's great powers are also watching this aerial battle on the Huangpu River.
This is a real dog fight!
Nearly a hundred fighter jets were fighting together on the six to seven kilometers stretch of the Huangpu River.
Fighters in the air were entangled at close range, performing various maneuvers on the Huangpu River, trying to bite each other's tail and find the best opportunity to fire.
At this time, no one among the major powers in the world believed that once a war broke out between China and Japan, the Chinese army would be able to defend the Japanese attack.
Military experts from some countries even speculate that once a war breaks out between China and Japan, the Chinese army will surrender in less than half a year.
Almost all major powers agree that the weak Chinese Air Force is vulnerable to the Japanese Air Force!
But the young Chinese Air Force, the brave Chinese Air Force, the passionate Chinese Air Force, and the indomitable Chinese Air Force surprised the foreigners in the concessions along the Huangpu River!
Officials and staff in the concessions of powerful countries such as Britain, France, the United States, Germany, and Italy took out their cameras and set up cameras to record this precious scene.
Many foreigners also recorded the two fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force.
No. 401.
No. 214.
In the air about one kilometer away from the 903 bomber, three Chinese military aircraft and two Japanese Type 95 carrier-based aircraft were fighting. They left the Huangpu River and chased to the south bank of the Pujiang River. The machine guns weaved streaks of red fire in the air. In the fire net, several fighter planes sometimes rolled, sometimes climbed, and sometimes dived to avoid the opponent's machine gun fire net.
To the southwest, a Japanese Type 95 water reconnaissance aircraft was hit by Chinese anti-aircraft artillery fire on the south bank of the Pujiang River. Suddenly thick smoke billowed and flames fell diagonally from the sky. The Japanese pilot opened the cabin cover and jumped from the falling aircraft. After climbing out, he pushed his legs upwards, opened his parachute, and floated towards the north shore.
On the ground below this Japanese pilot, we can see small groups of troops from both the enemy and ourselves gathering here, ready to snatch the pilot.
Since the war began, the 88th Division and the 87th Division have secretly deployed many anti-aircraft artillery and shore heavy artillery in strategic military areas along the river, fully cooperating with the young Chinese Air Force to kill the Japanese Third Fleet.
And the [Izumo] is the first target that all attacking forces must kill. This flagship of the Japanese Third Fleet has been entrenched on the Huangpu River for a long time, showing off its power.
Just seconds after the Japanese Type 95 carrier-based aircraft was shot down, a Chinese Hawker 2 fighter jet was hit by artillery fire from the [Izumo]. Thick smoke billowed out. There was no hatch cover, so as soon as the plane was hit, the pilot, who was covered in blood, jumped out of the cockpit, opened his parachute, and floated south to the bank of the Huangpu River. The Hawker 2 fighter jet was like a kite with its string broken, tumbling and falling into the Huangpu River. middle.
Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait looked nervously at the Chinese pilot who was covered in blood and opened his parachute.
Many Chinese men who were watching the fierce battle between China and Japan on both sides of the Taiwan Strait watched the pilots land on the shore. They took hoes, sickles, or kitchen knives and turned around to leave the house and go to rescue the pilots, but they were hugged tightly by their wives, children, and children...
Mao Bangchu told all the pilots in the morning that if the fighter plane was hit by artillery fire and it was really irreparable, they would jump out of the plane immediately.
In this battle of Songhu, the Communist Party will send its most elite guerrillas to assist the national army and frequently cause trouble for the Japanese army.
Although the Communist Party has a small number of people and crude weapons, the soldiers are all loyal, brave and good at fighting, with a sincere patriotism. Especially the guerrillas are good at small-scale combat. If the pilot jumps out of the plane, the Communist guerrillas will go all out. , risking his life to save.
The Japanese army also knew the importance of pilots. Whenever a pair of pilots parachuted, a capable team would go to rescue them or capture them.
Just now, under the cover and containment of Chinese fighter jets and riverside artillery fire, Falcon piloted this Heinkel He111 A bomber to avoid the hail of bullets from the ship-based artillery fire, and suddenly reached a 65-degree angle above the port side of the [Izumo] , began a dive attack, the forward machine gunner fired wildly at the sailor door on the enemy ship, the tracer bullets dragged red tongues of flames, swaying on the steel-cast [Izumo], splashing countless sparks, making a "ding, clang, clang" crisp sound.
Facing the powerful anti-aircraft fire of the Izumo, Hawkeye, who had no actual combat experience, was a little panicked. He took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and threw a bomb towards the bow of the ship. The bomb dropped at a 45-degree angle + At that moment, it slid past the bow of the "Izumo" more than a hundred meters forward, and landed on the stern of a destroyer, blasting a large hole in the hull. In an instant, the river water poured in.
Suddenly the Japanese destroyer caught fire, and several crew members who were on fire jumped into the river crying and screaming. Several Japanese soldiers were burned by the fire and lost their sense of direction. They screamed and rolled in the fire...
Without hitting the [Izumo], all the crew members collectively swore, "What the hell is it?"
Swearing is also a kind of catharsis for the crew. They just braved anti-aircraft fire and dropped a bomb in a narrow escape. Although it did not hit the "Izumo", it was successful in crippling another destroyer.
The Falcon pulled up the nose of the bomber and climbed into the air, then made a U-turn and began to dive: "Brothers, let's dive again!"
At this time, the crew did not realize that because they first dived to attack, then pulled up, flew out of speed and then turned around, there were no escorting destroyers around them.
Ren Yunge suddenly shouted loudly: "An enemy aircraft was found. At the 12 o'clock position behind me, a Type 95 carrier-based attack aircraft was approaching quickly!"
Seeing that there was no interceptor plane covering him, Falcon said harshly: "Cobra, it's up to you whether the brothers can go back today."
Ren Yunge also replied fiercely: "Understood! The labor and management will knock down this little devil's plane today. When I get back, I will tell my son how brave he is!"
Facing the Type 95 carrier-based aircraft that was approaching with great momentum, Ren Yunge was a little nervous. This was normal. He held the tail cabin machine gun tightly with both hands, ready to fire at any time. He stared at it without blinking and pounced on it, getting closer and closer. Japanese attack aircraft.
At this time, Zhou Zhihan had just driven away two Japanese military aircraft that wanted to attack the No. 913 bomber. He cooperated with Zhang Mufei and sank one. Just as he was raising the Hawker 3, he was preparing to attack another Type 96 carrier-based aircraft. At that time, at high altitude, he saw the lone Heinkel He111 A medium bomber No. 903. At the same time, he saw a Type 95 carrier-based attack aircraft and a Type 95 water reconnaissance aircraft rushing towards 903 at the same time.
Zhou Zhihan secretly screamed, abandoned the Type 96 carrier-based aircraft, and flew towards No. 903.
Many things came to mind in a flash, and at this moment, Zhou Zhihan suddenly remembered that Ren Yunge on board No. 903 died in the sky over the Huangpu River on August 14, 1937.
Zhou Zhihan hopes that this time, he can change his fate against the odds!
Pushing the throttle to the bottom, Fighter No. 214 accelerated in the air with all its strength, like a roc, dodging the anti-aircraft fire from Japanese warships on the Huangpu River and flying towards Bomber No. 903.
"ah……"
Ren Yunge shouted, fire!
