The train driver tried his best to sound the alarm and speed up. The train was like an old horse, urging the heavy cart to move forward desperately.
But no matter how hard the train driver pumps the gas, the dilapidated locomotive's speed is limited.
Hearing the piercing siren, Zhao Fugui in the carriage immediately blew out the lantern and hugged his helmet tightly.
There was money inside the helmet.
The soldiers held their breath, stared wide-eyed in the darkness, listened to the movement outside the carriage with their ears raised, and sweated from their guns in their hands.
The flares are too bright.
Not being able to see the enemy, and being exposed to the enemy's gunfire, the machine gunners on the carriage were frightened.
Zhou Zhihan simply closed his eyes and listened with his ears to the sound of propellers and engines coming from Japanese fighter planes in the sky.
There are two Japanese planes.
There is a Type 96 naval attack at 11:30, and a Type 98 naval attack at 12:30.
As expected, the Type 96 warship that was the first wave of bombing attacks was right in front of the car at 12:30, and its diving speed was not very fast.
It could have directly attacked the locomotive head-on with aerial bombs, but because it was dark and the locomotive's lights were dazzling, it might cause deflections. Therefore, the Japanese pilots believed that the hit rate could reach 100% by attacking from the side of the locomotive.
So under the cover of darkness, the two fighter planes turned off their engines and slowly approached the train. Before preparing to launch flares, the fighter planes started.
The Type 96 ship battle first uses the lights of the train as a reference, occupies the attack position in advance, dives slowly, and adjusts the advance amount of bombs. Even if the first wave of bomb attack cannot hit the locomotive, it can definitely hit the carriage behind the locomotive. .
The Type 98 naval attack was responsible for launching flares at 12:30 on the right side of the train. In the dark night, it was safer to let the highly maneuverable and flexible Type 96 naval attack dive and drop bombs first to attack the troop train, and then the Type 98 naval attack Come on, full fire.
In the dark night, they could only dive and drop bombs at ultra-low altitude. The Japanese pilots were worried that the huge fuselage of the 98-type ship attack would be difficult to pull and would be bitten by the anti-aircraft gunners.
The reason why the two Japanese fighter planes chose to launch flares before attacking was because there were many anti-aircraft machine gun positions on the troop transport train.
When a fighter plane fires tracer bullets in the dark night, it is equivalent to telling the anti-aircraft gunner the location of the fighter plane. The machine gunner can trap the fighter plane with a concentrated fire attack.
The train is moving, so the position of the machine gunner is relatively mobile, which will pose a huge threat to low-altitude, low-speed dive fighters in the night sky.
After firing flares and attacking, the anti-aircraft gunners on the train became almost blind in an instant. When their eyes adapted to the flares and then looked for targets, the Japanese fighter planes had already finished harvesting them.
The pilot of the Type 96 ship battle was a veteran. Before the flare was launched, he had already taken the active attack position. He used the train lights as a reference to constantly adjust the attack advance, and then used the intercom to tell the Type 98 ship Attack, launch flares, attack.
After the flare was launched, the Type 96 warship pounced down. The pilot's mouth twisted into a sinister smile. He was very confident that the aerial bomb would hit the target 100%. In addition, a few days ago, he harvested a Chinese military vehicle transporting supplies. He succeeded today. After returning, he can be promoted to one level and go to Wei...ansuoli to live a leisurely life...
Suddenly, the pilot of Type 96 Battleship saw the firepower of several fire snakes intertwined and biting him head-on. He was frightened but did not panic. He pressed the stick to avoid, but then he began to despair, because at this moment, dozens of fire snakes came towards him. The firepower net bit at him almost at the same time, completely covering him. No matter which direction he pressed the rod and rolled, it would be difficult to escape the bad luck of being shot down.
It turned out that while the Type 96 ship battle was constantly adjusting the bomb delivery advance, Zhou Zhihan was also listening to the location of the Japanese aircraft, and based on the speed of the train moving forward, he calculated the machine gun position in the carriage he was in, compared with the Type 96 ship battle. The amount of shooting advance during the shooting period.
The Type 96 ship battle involves dropping bombs to attack the train, so you need to dive as close to the train as possible. This gives the machine gunners on the train a chance to strike in advance.
"Fire!"
Zhou Zhihan shouted.
Before the words were spoken, the anti-aircraft gunner and the anti-aircraft gunner pulled the trigger, and tongues of purple-red flames spit out instantly, biting towards the 10:30 minute direction.
A second later, the anti-aircraft gunners in other carriages who had not found the target followed blindly, concentrated their firepower, and fired fiercely at that location.
What Zhou Zhihan wanted was for all the machine gunners to follow blindly. In the dark night, the machine guns on his carriage were at full fire, like a red baton, commanding all the machine gunners to shoot from different positions at the same time. Six-type ship warfare launches an all-round attack without loopholes.
"boom!"
The Type 96 naval combat pilot remained calm in the face of danger. He pressed the stick and rolled 90 degrees sideways to avoid the incoming fire tongues, trying not to lose too much of the fighter's energy. While dropping the aerial bomb, the fighter plane pulled up, and the aerial bomb "bombed" Amidst the sound of explosions, the train passed over the swaying and almost capsized train.
Although the bombs dropped hastily during the Type 96 battle did not hit the train, the explosion point was not far from the train tracks.
"Zhizhizhi..."
Several carriages close to the explosion point were hit by the huge shock wave. The wheels on one side left the track, and the wheels on the other side produced severe friction with the track, making everyone in the carriage feel like they could overturn at any time, and everyone staggered around in the carriage...
At this time, the flares projected by the Type 98 ship attack were still falling slowly and did not go out.
The Type 98 naval attack pilot reacted very quickly. The fighter plane immediately pulled up with all its strength and left. It circled at high altitude and then turned around. It wanted to look for the Type 96 naval attack aircraft that might have been hit by the anti-aircraft machine gun, but waited for it to circle back. Finally, the shadow of the Type 96 naval battle had long been lost in the night sky, so the Type 98 naval attack could only return in vain and fly towards the base in Shanghai.
The machine gunners on the carriages closest to the bomb fell off the train during the shaking. Zhou Zhihan's carriage did not shake very hard. After shaking for a few times, it stabilized and grabbed the following carriages that were shaking violently. Fortunately, he did not A rollover occurred.
Just after the train car stabilized, Zhou Zhihan reached out and picked up a Zhongzheng rifle, jumped out of the still slow truck, and chased in the direction where the Type 96 warship passed by.
Just now, when the Type 96 warship passed over the train, it was like a downpour of rain falling from the sky and falling on Zhou Zhihan's head and body.
The strong and familiar smell of jet fuel.
Zhou Zhihan judged that the Type 96 warship must have been hit by shrapnel in the fuel tank or fuel supply system, and the fuel leaked severely.
It can't fly very far.
After chasing for tens of meters, just before the flare was about to go out, Zhou Zhihan's excellent eyesight saw that in the night sky a few hundred meters away, the Type 96 warship looked like a wounded bird. Sweeping to the southwest, the flight was very low and very slow.
Zhou Zhihan determined that the Type 96 Ship Battle's fuel leaked very quickly, and the pilot must have been severely injured and unable to turn the rudder, nor was he able to pull up the nose of the aircraft. Therefore, the Type 96 Ship Battle could only make an emergency landing to the southwest instead of skimming to the direction of the aircraft. To the southeast is the airport built by the Japanese army in Shanghai.
"He can't fly very far."
Zhou Zhihan shouted excitedly, holding a Zhongzheng rifle in his hand, running like flying, chasing forward based on the strong smell of fuel spilled on the ground.
This means that there is no place to be found even after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there.
We must find this Type 96 ship that made an emergency landing.
Zhou Zhihan ran quickly and thought to himself that God would bless me so that I could get this fighter plane, and then use this fighter plane to return the ghost's body in the same way as a ghost.
