Chapter 133: Dumplings
Xu Huansheng hurried back to the airport to prepare for command of the battle. When the radar of the airport detected the attacking Japanese army, the officer on duty issued an order for the fighter to take off urgently. However, for the specific battle, Xu Huansheng still needed to return to command.
All 72 P-51b fighters from 6 squadrons took off to meet the enemy. The pilots who flew these aircraft were all the best pilots. As for the other bombers, they were all pushed into the hangar to avoid losses.
The air defense forces around the airport have also entered a state of combat. Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns have been aimed at the sky. Once the air force's fighter jets cannot intercept all the Japanese fighter jets, they have to rely on them to guard the airport.
The aviation fleet of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army currently has this airport. If the airport is destroyed, they may not be able to take off and land the aircraft in a short time. When the army is fighting, it will not be able to obtain support from the airline fighter jets.
Chief of Staff Liu Shiquan also heard the news and rushed to Qin Shou's office.
"Commander, I heard that Japan himself sent a large number of fighter planes to attack?" Liu Shiquan looked nervous.
"Well, nearly 200 fighter jets. This time, I obviously plan to deal with the aviation team we just formed." Qin Shou's face looked a little ugly. The strength of the anti-Japanese and national salvation army was still too weak after all! If their strength was stronger, they would not be so passive.
"Can our air force withstand the attack of Japan himself?"
"I don't know either. However, I believe that they will make Japanese* himself pay a heavy price." Qin Shou said firmly.
The fighters of the anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army's aviation team are all advanced P-51b fighters, and shooting down the Japanese fighter jets is not a big problem at all. Although the number of aircraft groups deployed by the Japanese army this time is very large, most of them are bombers and dive bombers. The number of real fighters must not be large. Those bombers and dive bombers are simply vulnerable in front of the anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army's p-51b fighters. At that time, many Japanese fighters will inevitably be shot down.
"If we give us a while to develop and grow a little stronger, we won't have to be so afraid of them." Liu Shiquan cursed.
Indeed, compared with the Japanese army, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army was established too short and its foundation was too weak. Although the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army has now grown to more than 100,000 people, its foundation is not stable. As long as one failure occurs, it may cause them to fall apart. Therefore, Qin Shou has always been careful to avoid the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army being defeated as much as possible.
"I'll go to Steven's place. This time, our air force was forced to fight the Japanese air force. For reason, the Americans should give us more support." Qin Shou said. Even at this time, he still did not forget to ask for more benefits from the Americans. In this way, even if the air force of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army suffered a great loss, they could recover their strength quickly.
"Qin, you may be in trouble this time. All the planes of Japan* near Chiang Mai have been dispatched." Steven said immediately after seeing Qin Shou.
"Yes, Steven. Although I am very confident in my airline team. However, there are too many planes that Japan myself dispatched this time. It is very difficult to defeat them. We will even pay a considerable loss. So, I need the United States to provide more help from us." Qin Shou said.
"Qin, don't worry. I have already reacted to General Stilwell's situation. General Stilwell promised that after this battle, you will once again win more aircraft for you. At that time, your air force will become stronger. Of course, there is a prerequisite, that is, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army must win this decisive battle that concerns the victory or defeat of the Myanmar battlefield. Otherwise, everything will be in vain."
Qin Shou nodded. The Americans were willing to provide support, so everything was easy to say.
"Don't worry, Steven. We will definitely win this battle!"
While Qin Shou solemnly found ways to get more benefits from the Americans, the battle between the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force and the 5th Japanese Flying Division had officially begun.
Captain Monet, the squadron leader of the 1st Fighter Squadron of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, is responsible for commanding this battle. Although the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force now has six squadrons of fighter jets. However, most of them are rookies. Although they have worked very hard, they have never been on the battlefield. No one can tell what kind of performance they can truly perform on the battlefield.
"Young guys, we are about to encounter Japanese * myself. Remember, everything is fine as you do during training. You will soon find that Japanese * myself is actually vulnerable. In the morning battle, the performance of the 2nd Squadron was very good."
"Yes, sir." All the pilots replied.
These pilots were inevitably a little nervous when they went to the battlefield for the first time. But they were also full of expectations for this battle. They were the absolute elites of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. After many selections, they entered the air force.
Under the guidance of the airport radar, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force headed straight for the Japanese fleet. It also flew at a height of tens of thousands of meters.
A few minutes later, they had discovered the Japanese army fleet under the clouds.
"Detective Japanese aircraft groups, each squadron should pay attention and launch an attack immediately. First use rockets to disperse the Japanese aircraft groups, and then launch an attack, and operate in a dual-aircraft formation, focusing on killing Japanese bombers and dive bombers!" Captain Monet ordered.
"I understand, sir!" The squadron leaders of each squadron replied one after another.
Subsequently, six fighter squadrons of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force launched an attack. They rushed directly to the Japanese fleet from a height of 10,000 meters. Each P-51b fighter was equipped with 10 rockets. Although the range of these rockets was not far and their power was not high. If intensive shooting was carried out, it could still cause huge losses to the Japanese fleet.
"emission!"
With the commander's order, 72 P-51b fighter jets began to fire rockets.
A total of 720 rockets flew towards the Japanese fleet,
"Damn it, the Chinese fighter jets are coming, disperse quickly." Major Infuri Murata discovered the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army Air Force and immediately ordered.
But even so, it was still too late. Rockets exploded in the Japanese fleet, and fighter planes were constantly hit. These fighter planes kept falling, and for a moment, it was like dumplings.
