Chapter 124 Training

The first bombing target that Wang Xuexin chose was Linfen Railway Station.

The reason I chose a train station is because it is a place where materials are relatively concentrated, and there may be ammunition in it. If the hit is hit, it may cause great losses to the enemy.

The most important thing is... the air-launched rockets with large train stations and poor accuracy must be launched in the dark. If you don't choose such large targets, you will basically have no chance of hitting them.

For example, blowing up a bridge.

Or blow up the rails.

Or just blow up a warehouse?

These things must be fired during the day and at close range.

The train station is different, and Linfen Railway Station is also a large station. With a few miles apart, it is either a transit warehouse or a railway track, a locomotive, and a mountain of coal... In this era, trains burn coal, and the train station must store a lot of coal for the trains arriving at the station.

There are still thousands of fighter jets carrying rockets.

There is no increase because of training needs... There are only 29 new fighter jets, and only 20 pilots needing training. If the fighter jets are just right, that is, 20 people are flying 20 fighters to train. If an aircraft fails and needs maintenance or needs maintenance, it will undoubtedly affect the training plan.

During this period, training is more important than actual combat, because Wang Xuexin did not increase the number of ground fighter jets.

When the fighter jets were dispatched, 30 formations were flying, of which 10 were rocket-mounted, and 20 were fighter jets used for air combat.

They first flew a few laps over Wanxian Airport, and then headed straight to Linfen Railway Station.

In the end, only 10 of them went to bomb Linfen Railway Station, and the other 20 returned and climbed high to train before arriving in Luliang Mountain.

The reason for climbing is that it is night. If there is no certain height, you will fall head-on to the ground or hit the mountain. Having a certain height means that the pilot has more reaction time.

Wang Xuexin is not concerned about the bombing effect of the 10 rocket fighter jets. He is more concerned about the training effect, especially the training effect of Chinese pilots.

Because Chinese pilots just learned to fly this kind of plane not long ago, they now have to conduct combat training, and it is still at night... Although these 10 people were selected from Chinese pilots, they were also short and tall.

On the contrary, the Eagle Sauce Pilot is different.

These ten Hawksauce pilots have sufficient flight time and even combat training. Alec still has practical experience and is even an elite among pilots.

Therefore, Alec undoubtedly became the frontline commander.

But the facts were beyond Wang Xuexin's expectations. Alec reported: "You can't believe it, Wang! I think the training effect of Chinese pilots is better, much better than the Hawksauce pilots!"

"Is that true?" Wang Xuexin was surprised and happy when he heard this, and looked at Wu Guozhi beside him in confusion.

Wu Guozhi was also surprised by this. He thought about it and replied: "Our people made a lot of preparations before training, and the Eagle Sauce pilots, they don't care and don't take this training seriously!"

Wang Xuexin thought about it and thought that it was probably the reason.

Because training like this is nothing for the Hawksauce pilots, they usually have the opportunity to fly, so they did not think carefully or analyze carefully before training.

Chinese pilots are different. They cherish these training opportunities very much and know that these opportunities are hard-won and less when they practice once. They may not be able to practice a few times before the battle, so they made the most preparations and used the greatest attention and the best mental state to devote themselves to training.

So, this is actually a matter of mentality.

There is a saying that goes, "From simple to go to extravagance, but from extravagance to simple to go to simple", and the Eagle Sauce pilot has not yet changed from the Eagle Sauce's luxury state.

Later, Wang Xuexin heard that Wu Guozhi and other Chinese pilots had even previewed on the ground countless times before training:

Each two are in a group, calculate the matching speed in advance and memorize it.

For example, the front aircraft has a speed of 300 kilometers per hour and a fighter with waves in the rear must be able to bite the tail at the speed and "shock amplitude" to ensure that it will not be lost and can bite the tail and shoot.

Then one person was in front and the other was behind, and several people pushed the fighter planes to simulate the cabin and shouted for drills.

Then I took turns practicing the replacement.

I have practiced back and forth a few times, and when I was on the ground, I have already mastered almost all this tactic and the speed they should have. After I took off, I will do it well as soon as I am familiar with it for a while, just like I have practiced it before.

On the contrary, the Eagle Sauce pilots did not make these preparations, and they rely more on feelings during long flights. As a result, either this or that situation occurred. Either they chased them and could not find someone, or they forgot to bite their tails with waves in a hurry... This cannot be said to be unprepared, but a habit of becoming nature. The training they received in the past has always told them to keep pace with the target and bite their tails and chase them, so it is difficult to change them.

The Chinese pilots are a blank piece of paper. They don’t need to change their habits like the Hawkshe pilots, but instead use new tactics directly as soon as they come up, and there is no problem.

The most serious one is that the two machines almost collided... The wave tail biting tactic is indeed very likely to occur, because the rear machine is faster, the amplitude is not well controlled, and it is close to the target, and accidents will occur if you are not careful. This is one of the reasons why many people know that this tactic cannot be used.

Alec couldn't help but frown when he saw the training situation, thinking that these Chinese pilots were born suitable for air combat? This made the Eagle Sauce pilot who claimed to be a teacher and a teacher lose face!

Therefore, Alec did not even intend to report this situation in detail to Hawkshop, and he believed that this should not be something General Doolittle was happy to see.

Soon, news came from 10 rocket fighters commanded by Major Doug: "We have fired rockets towards the railway station and are returning to the voyage!"

"Have you found the enemy intercepted?" Wang Xuexin asked.

Major Doug looked into the night sky under the moonlight and replied: "Without the enemy intercepting, the enemy may not have transferred the night fighter jets yet!"

Major Doug is right.

In fact, the Japanese knew about the Eighth Route Army fighter jets as soon as they were lifted off.

The Japanese used 98 light explosions to reconnaise around Wanxian Airport, and at this stage it is also reconnaissance throughout the whole period, which is 24 hours a day. At least one 98 light explosion is over Wanxian Airport.

But because the Japanese did not have night fighter jets, they could not react even when they saw the fighter jets take off in the night.

At the same time, because the 98 light explosion speed is slow and only has a maximum speed of 423 kilometers per hour, it cannot keep up with the Hawk 81 fleet. It only knows that they take off and head straight for Linfen, but they don’t know where they go or what they do in the future.
