Chapter 251 Bombing of Wugang
The huge bombing formation killed the Yellow Sea with great momentum. When it flew over the Korean Peninsula, it was discovered by the Japanese below. Now the whole of Japan is tense and waiting for Yang Feng's bomber. Since Ryuki Kariya had to develop a hostage tactic in the northeast, the Japanese have already understood that Yang Feng must bomb their local area next. These guys also want to take this opportunity to exclaim a good resentment. In recent years, the hundreds of bombers in Peking pressed over their heads like a heavy mountain. The souls of hundreds of thousands of victims of Sendai were wandering day and night in the sky of Japan. Even middle school students posted Yang Feng's photos on the target for military training.
Of course, what they don’t know is that there will be more unjust souls wandering next.
The bomber formation was discovered by the Japanese land-based radar before they could approach the coast of Honshu. Although their radar technology was very garbage, it was not as trash as it was not known to have two hundred planes flying over. Of course, if you want to tell which aircraft it was, don't expect it. It was good if their radar was not seen as a flock of birds. How could it be possible to tell bombers and fighters?
As the air defense alarm sounded, all airports in Xiaguan, Hiroshima, Kyushu and other places were in chaos. With bright lights, twin-engine moonlight fighters flew into the sky. Their airborne radar can be found about ten kilometers for giants like the Liberator. Of course, it cannot be used to guide the attack. The distance must be narrowed to about one kilometer, and then illuminated with a searchlight and locked the target to attack. The firepower of this aircraft is powerful, with three cannons installed at the head of the aircraft. To be honest, it is not easy for the Japanese to make this thing in four years. Even Yang Feng himself couldn't help but admire them.
Unfortunately, this premature night fighter has a worse performance and does not have the iconic oblique gun.
Because of radar guidance, more than 80 moonlights were full of confidence and climbed to a height of nine thousand meters like when the Chinese bullied them, preparing to wait for the arrival of Chinese bombers, and then dived from above to attack. However, their whereabouts lost any meaning in front of the two early warning aircraft in the bombing formation.
After obtaining the position of the Japanese plane, the night war-type two-body demon who was escorted immediately dropped the secondary fuel tank and accelerated to 15,000 meters. Such an altitude is simply incredible for moonlight using the piston engine. Moreover, because the radar performance is not an era at all, it was not until these hundred escorted two-body demons began to dive that the Japanese army suddenly discovered that there were enemies above their heads.
"Enemy plane!" With the series of screams in the radio station, the first large-scale night air battle in the history of war was kicked off. In the eyes of the two-body demons equipped with night vision instruments and radar sights, the huge moonlight was simply a group of targets. Before the Japanese searchlight was turned on, the cannons here had already fired, and in an instant, countless fire whips were pulled out from the night sky. More than twenty moonlights were blown up in the air in the first round of attacks alone, looking like blooming fireworks.
The Japanese army was stunned by this brutal attack. The remaining moonlights were desperately raising their heads and hoped to shine on the enemy with a searchlight. Unfortunately, they were at their own extreme height. If the level flight could still maintain altitude, they would immediately start to fall down after a little maneuver. At this time, the Japanese pilots also understood that the best way now is to accelerate and dive to a low altitude. Maybe they could still be qualified to fight. Moonlights desperately dive to the low altitude. The fragile fuselage was even a little overwhelmed, and one of them flew off one of them and the engine.
But even so, they still couldn't get rid of the enemy above their heads. The turboprop version of the two-body demon had the fastest speed of more than 800. It was a fantasy to try to get rid of them. These black ghosts in the night sky whistled and pounced. As the flames sprayed by the machine guns, red whips hit the Japanese plane below, and one blow passed by, then circled and pounced again in the sky. In just a few minutes, the Japanese army's moonlight had been lost.
And so far, the Japanese army has not even been able to fire a single shot.
This battle left the Japanese command dumbfounded. They couldn't understand why after working hard for so many years, the result was still like this? Could that demon-like opponent really be unable to defeat?
Of course, now is not the time to study this problem. Such air combat is meaningless. Although the moonlight can resist a certain amount of resistance after entering a low altitude, the problem is that the opponent's speed is too fast. As soon as the searchlight hits the target, before aiming, the opponent hides into the night. Then you can see it hovering at an extremely fast speed from the radar. Then it reaches the top of your head. Facing such an opponent, the pilots of the moonlight fighter jets feel like they used the 97-style to fight against the old twin-body demon. This three-headed monster has become a nightmare that they can never get rid of.
The order to retreat finally came from the radio station. Less than thirty remaining moonlights returned with humiliating tears. Fortunately, the opponent did not pursue it. This is understandable. It took more than a thousand kilometers from Yantai to here, which is almost close to the limit of their combat radius. Naturally, we cannot continue to waste fuel. After such an air battle, we might have to return directly.
When the Japanese thought of this, they couldn't help but feel happy. Although they suffered heavy losses, they could force the escort fighter planes away, so the remaining moonlight still had a chance.
However, this time they were wrong again. Not only did the two-body demon not leave, they also continued to fly back and follow the bomber group to continue to pounce on Wugang.
"Bastard, how much oil do these planes carry?" The bombing of Wugang began amid the angry roar of the Japanese commander. However, the first one to attack was not the bomber, but the two-body demons who were escorting. These lightning-fast black ghosts appeared and disappeared between the light columns of the searchlights. With advanced night vision instruments with advanced performance, they used navigation cannons to attack the searchlights on the ground specifically because the air defense firepower on the ground was too fast.
Just as the Japanese anti-aircraft guns were running around under the attack of the two-body demons, the liberators in the sky began to drop bombs. According to the different echoes of the bombing radar, everything below was vividly remembered even at high altitudes outside the range of night vision instruments. There were even a number of battleships under construction, especially those large aircraft carriers, which were very eye-catching on the radar display. With the command of the formation commander, the bomb bay on the belly was opened, and the bomb was handed over to Norton's sight to turn into autonomous driving, and then the bomb was dropped at the most suitable position.
The whistling sound of the 500-kilogram bomb resounded throughout the night sky, and was particularly harsh with the dense explosion of anti-aircraft artillery shells. Soon a dazzling ball of fire exploded on the dark earth, followed by a large number of fire balls tore the night, the earth, and the life.
The Japanese army went crazy and shot into the sky. It is no exaggeration to describe the importance of this port. Since the Meiji era, it has been the base of the United Fleet and Japan's largest warship manufacturing base. Over half a century of accumulation, it has become their strong backing for the world. If it is destroyed, it will be the heaviest blow to Japan.
Unfortunately, the bombers' bomb drop heights are eight thousand meters. Except for those large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, there is nothing else to do. As for those large-caliber anti-aircraft guns, it is also extremely difficult to lock targets with searchlights in the night sky. What's more, the Japanese anti-aircraft guns' time fuze effect is incomparable to radio near-explosion.
They were helpless in this regard. The Chinese and Japanese friendly people in Nanjing worked hard many times but failed to get this thing. The anti-aircraft artillery troops in Nanjing were sent directly from Peking. Except for the direct orders from the bald man and Peking, they would not pay any attention to anyone. Even if He Yingqin went, they could not touch those mysterious shells. Yang Feng had a stricter control over this thing than anything else.
Just when the bombing of Wugang began, thirty bombers flew directly over the city. Their target was Edashima and the Japanese Naval Academy. Anyway, Yang Feng's goal was to fight for more than three years. I think it would not have a big impact to kill all these students. So the order given to the bomber was that Wugang could be blown up at will, but Edashima must be leveled.
Thirty Liberator bombers dropped a total of 150 tons of napalm bombs on this small island with a desperate gaze. Looking at the sky-sky fire in the direction of the Naval Academy, Deputy General Wu of Wu, the commander of the Wu Zhenguanfu Office, burst into tears.
A hundred Liberator bombers quickly dropped all the bombs. In the hatred eyes of the Japanese, they left with the victor's pride. A devastated city was left behind. The two-body demons who were escorting, even reluctantly shot the Japanese who were putting fire on the ground, and then accelerated to chase the bomber formation.
