As Wang Xuexin guessed, Okamura Yasuji never expected that the Eighth Route Army fighter jets took off for "zero war" and were aimed at annihilation of "zero war".

But this is not surprising.

According to the Japanese's idea at this time, it was "zero war" invincible in the world, and even Hans, whom they have always respected, is no exception... Hans has no aircraft carriers and no carrier-based aircraft, and is really inferior to the Japanese in this regard.

So, who would have thought that the Eighth Route Army was so bold that it would have annihilated this "No. 1 in the World" fighter?

Okamura Nagato thought so in his subconscious mind. He has always been very relieved about "zero war". So when he heard that the Eighth Route Army's fighter jets were dispatched in full swing, he excitedly said to Yoshio Shinozuka: "It's great, the Eighth Route Army is going all out and planning to fight us!"

This is also another illusion that Wang Xuexin wanted to create for the Japanese.

Why choose to attack when the Japanese fighter jets are in place at night?

Because there is no way out:

There is a "zero war" blockade during the day and a "ki45" blockade at night, and it can't escape no matter how you go.

So, instead of making the fighter jets rust and moldy on the ground, and needing manpower and material resources to maintain them, it is better to send them to the air to consume them with the enemy.

However, Okamura Yasuji always thought that the Eighth Route Army would choose to fight at night. After all, facing ki45 is much easier than facing "zero war": the former has at least a little chance of winning, while the latter is almost a death sentence.

Unexpectedly, the Eighth Route Army's choice was the daytime "zero war".

Okamura Yasuji smiled grimly: "Since you are looking for death, I will fulfill your wish!"

Then Okamura Yasuji ordered: "Order the Zero War Squadron to attack!"

"yes!"

Okamura Yasuji hesitated for a moment and then ordered: "Another 96th ship battle squadron!"

"Yes!" Shinozuka Yoshio immediately conveyed the order.

Okamura Yasuji sent all the main forces to fight in the air. Since the last time Linfen Airport was bombed, Linfen Airport did not dare to arrange too many aircraft. There was only one squadron in the 96 ship battle.

After receiving the order, Aoki Rie took his subordinates to fly a fighter plane into the air to intercept.

On the plane, Rie Aoki was still thinking: "Are these Eighth Route Army crazy? They actually chose to fight with them during the day!"

Then Riei Aoki felt that this was normal again.

Because night battles may be even more unfavorable to the Eighth Route Army... Although the Ki45 is not that scary in the eyes of the Imperial pilots, the Hawk 81 used by the Eighth Route Army does not have the ability to fight at night.

On the other hand, the fundamental purpose of Hawkshop's deployment of Hawk 81 in China is to consume "zero war" rather than ki45.

Therefore, at this last moment, it seems not that strange that China's war opportunity chooses to use "zero war" as its opponent.

Since the Eighth Route Army fighter jets did not take the detour to avoid radar like before, in just ten minutes, Aoki Rie saw the enemy aircraft group from afar.

Rie Aoki heard cheers from his subordinates on the radio:

"Look, there are at least forty aircraft!"

"This time, I can add several crashes to me at once!"

"Yamaguchi, let's take a look at who can fall more!"

...

Rie Aoki couldn't help frowning. His subordinates seemed to have not taken the enemy fighter jets in front of them seriously. They took it for granted that they had won, but the result was just a matter of falling several aircraft.

Rie Aoki is more cautious. This is his style and the reason why he can become the captain of the "Zero War" squadron.

Therefore, Aoki Riei warned his subordinates on the radio: "Don't relax, the enemy may not be as simple as it seems!"

But his subordinates did not listen to Aoki Riei's words at all. Although Aoki Riei heard his subordinates' response, he was obviously perfunctory.

Then, a subordinate reported: "Squadron Captain, the enemy's fighter planes seem to be loading shells!"

Rie Aoki could understand what this sentence means.

This is not only a description of the situation of the war, but also a response to his warning just now.

The implicit meaning is: the enemy's fighter jets are mounted with shells, so they are not used for air combat. Since they are not used for air combat, do you still need to be careful?

Rie Aoki felt something was wrong, so he looked at the enemy's group seriously.

As the subordinates reported, they were indeed trapped shells... although I don’t know what kind of shells it was.

Could it be that this time is the legendary rs82 used by Mao Xiong in the Battle of Nomenhan?

But then I thought about it and felt something was wrong.

If the Eighth Route Army's rs82 were that powerful, it would have been long since broken through the empire's blockade.

That should be a rocket used to bomb the airport.

However, this is not consistent with common sense.

Could the Eighth Route Army have caused the fighter plane to come up and die like this?

If their goal is to consume "zero war" as much as possible...

With this question, Aoki Rie's fighter planes shifted to a better view, and then he found the problem: this group of aircraft only had some fighter planes in front, and there were fighter planes with no objects in the rear.

Rie Aoki hurriedly issued a warning: "This is a trap, please deal with it carefully..."

Taeyoshi Aoki originally wanted his subordinates to obey his command and turn, because this would temporarily avoid the enemy and have a sharp edge.

But there was no hurry at this time, because the enemy planes headed in the front had already shot out shells mounted under the wings more than "swoosh".

This is Wang Xuexin’s idea.

The rocket-mounted fighter jets are used to confuse enemy fighter jets and let them jump into traps.

But this does not mean that the rocket fighter is completely bait and has no power to fight back.

First of all, the pilots of rocket fighter jets have also been trained to have certain combat capabilities.

Secondly, the rockets have been improved for air combat rather than against enemy ground targets.

This so-called "improvement" is actually very simple, which is to use a delayed fuze and install a high-explosive bomb, which is the kind that will explode and produce fragments.

Of course, they still have no precision.

But accuracy does not matter in the face of quantity, and Wang Xuexin did not hope that they could knock down the enemy plane in one breath... The rocket loaded with a delayed fuse is actually like an anti-aircraft gun shell, which uses explosive shrapnel to damage the target.

Wang Xuexin thought, since the Japanese Zero War had structural flaws, why not use this method to "hit a blind cat to death a mouse"?

It really happened...

After the rocket was launched, a ball of smoke exploded between the two aircraft formations. Several "Zero Battle" that flew fast and crashed into the smoke. As a result, two were injured by shrapnel on the spot and black smoke rose. Another one was flying crookedly. It should be that somewhere was hit by shrapnel and disintegrated, which made the plane unable to balance... The disintegration is very normal in "Zero Battle".

The next second, before the Japanese could react, Hawke 81 flew into their group and started a battle.
