"The Chinese people are quite courageous. They won't take out all the planes, right?"
At the headquarters of the Japanese Tenth Division in Zaozhuang, the division commander Isotani Rensuke smiled and joked with his surrounding subordinates.
"The fighter planes of the China Army were lucky yesterday, otherwise they would have been wiped out by imperial fighter planes over the China Airport." Colonel Umura Uro who was standing beside him echoed.
What the Chief of Staff was talking about was that yesterday Captain Wu of the Third Battalion of the Chinese Air Force personally led a total of 14 Yi-15 fighter jets from the 7th and 8th squadrons to bomb the Japanese troops in Lincheng and Hanzhuang. As a result, when they returned to prepare for landing, Was ambushed by 18 Japanese Type 95 fighter jets that had been ambushed for a long time.
However, in the end the Japanese aviation force did not succeed and instead lost two fighter planes.
Generally speaking, the Chinese Air Force was almost wiped out, but with good luck, although the losses were not small, it still repelled the Japanese aircraft.
In this way, the Japanese aviation force sent nine Type 95 fighter jets to Taierzhuang, intending to shoot down the Chinese fighter planes over Taierzhuang.
In fact, Li Hang and others were prepared for the Japanese aviation force's counterattack.
Although the four-man plane first shot down six Japanese planes and then strafed them, in fact, they didn't even use up the bullets of the two machine guns, just to prevent the Japanese planes from counterattacking.
They don't want to lure the enemy back to Xuzhou, that would be too dangerous.
Because Taierzhuang is close to Xuzhou, Li Hang and others can stay in the air for a longer period of time to fight.
After they stayed for half an hour, they found that the enemy plane had not arrived yet, so they prepared to return.
But just when they were about to return, the Japanese plane arrived. Li Hang and the four immediately divided into two teams and began to face the enemy.
The Japanese aircraft were nine Type 95 fighter jets. Although there were many, they were not invincible.
However, after seeing the Chinese fighter jets, Captain Kato Takeo, the leader of the Second Squadron of the Japanese First Battalion, immediately cursed when he saw the four Chinese fighter jets coming towards him.
"Baga, how did the frontline troops report? How could it be this fighter plane?"
When getting the order to go out, the superiors only said that there were only 4 Chinese fighter planes, but they did not say the model.
In fact, both the division commander Isotani Rensuke and the Army Aviation officers thought they were four I-15 fighter jets.
There is absolutely no problem in dispatching 9 Type 95 fighter jets on our side.
But when they met, they discovered that the Chinese Air Force was not an I-15, but an I-16.
Even if Takeo Kato yelled there, it was useless, because four Chinese fighter planes rushed towards the enemy with full firepower.
"Baga, spread out!"
Seeing the powerful firepower, Kato Takeo's scalp went numb, and he quickly flew his fighter plane upwards to avoid it.
Even so, his plane was hit, but fortunately it did not cause much damage.
However, other aircraft were not so lucky. In just one head-on shooting, one aircraft smoked and fell, and two aircraft were also damaged.
What worried Kato Takeo even more was that the formation of the other eight aircraft was completely messed up, and they were directly scattered, leaving no formation at all.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the four I-16s searched for the nearest Japanese aircraft, took aim and opened fire.
"Baga, you are looking for death!"
Seeing two damaged fighter jets being targeted and shot down by Chinese fighter jets, Takeo Kato rushed over angrily, found one of the fighter jets in not very good condition, and prepared to find an opportunity to shoot down the opponent.
"Damn it, if my plane wasn't damaged, I would have shot you down."
After repeated battles, Zhou Zhikai's plane had a lot of bullet holes, and there were obvious problems with the wings, so its flexibility and speed dropped a lot. Facing Kato Takeo's entanglement, it was somewhat unable to do what it wanted.
But he relied on his experience in many battles and the fighting skills taught by Li Hang to constantly avoid the opponent's lock.
But the plane's speed dropped, making him feel like he couldn't exert his strength. He was still locked by the enemy plane. After being hit by bullets one after another, the plane also began to smoke.
Just when he thought he was going to be shot down, Li Hang's plane suddenly arrived, and the Japanese plane chasing him was also smoking.
Kato Takeo thought he would also be shot down, but fortunately two Type 95 fighter jets came to support him. Taking advantage of this gap, he found an opportunity to get rid of the Chinese fighter jet that was chasing him.
When the fighter planes were crossing each other, he noticed the number of the Chinese fighter plane.
2305!
"Nani? How could it be that devil?"
Seeing this aircraft that made both the Army and Navy aviation personnel grit their teeth with hatred appear in front of him, Kato Takeo was surprised and felt a little pity at the same time.
If it weren't for the poor condition of his plane, he would really like to learn what this devil is capable of.
However, this idea was quickly forgotten by him, because one of the two planes that came to rescue him was quickly shot down.
Seeing this situation, Kato Takeo decided to run away.
If this continues, I will be doomed.
He doesn't care about his team members anymore and will leave first.
As soon as he left, the remaining Japanese planes were also preparing to retreat, but Li Hang and Liang Tiancheng had no intention of letting these Japanese planes go and rushed forward.
After a fight, except for Kato Takeo who was the first to leave the battlefield, all other planes were shot down.
In this air battle, Li Hang once again became the focus.
It flew directly over the Taierzhuang battlefield, made a swooping mockery of the Japanese army, and then returned.
. . . . . .
"Four against nine, we won again?"
Captain Wang couldn't close his mouth for a long time when he saw the air battle in the sky that had ended in the trench outside Taierzhuang.
"Not only did we win, we also shot down eight enemy planes, and only one Japanese plane escaped." Battalion Commander Jiang explained.
"so amazing!"
"Tuanzuo, that fighter is the most powerful. I think he was able to fight against three and shot down three Japanese planes."
Someone pointed at one of their own fighter planes and jumped excitedly and said, "That's the one!"
At this time, a fighter plane flew over the Japanese army's position and then flew over the Chinese army's position in Taierzhuang at low altitude, arousing cheers from the soldiers in the position.
And when the fighter plane flew over at low altitude, many people saw the number of the fighter plane.
2305!
"Commander, this is the 'King of Expulsion' that the master mentioned. He was the one who challenged three and still won." Battalion Commander Jiang couldn't hide his excitement and pointed away. The plane is right there explained incoherently.
"The King of Expulsion! It seems that he is really the one!" Captain Wang sighed with emotion, but he quickly reacted, holding up a big knife and shouting, "What are you doing standing still? Come on, kill the Japanese!"
"Yes, kill the Japanese!"
"Come on!"
Perhaps inspired by the air battle, the Chinese army, which had just been blocked in its counterattack, took up arms again and continued its counterattack. For a while, gunshots and shouts of killing occurred one after another.
The Japanese army, on the other hand, was also affected by two consecutive tragic defeats in air battles. After seeing the Chinese army rushing up again, they fired a perfunctory shot and began to retreat.
