Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

'Some time ago, didn't the government receive a batch of planes aided by the Soviet Union?At least you have an air force, so you can more or less carry out air combat with the little devil's plane.On our side, facing the air attack of the little devil, we can only defend passively! '

With the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Central Army Air Force, which originally had the strongest air force in the Republic of China, suffered heavy losses after several air battles.After receiving the Soviet Union's aid to China and aircraft, they also recovered a certain amount of air defense and counterattack capabilities.

Regarding this batch of aid planes to China, in fact, the Eighth Route Army also requested from the Soviet Union, hoping to distribute a batch of aid planes to the Eighth Route Army.As a result, the Soviet Union did not agree to the application of the Eighth Route Army in the end.

Although the Soviet Union emphasized that the Nationalist Government was the only legal government representing China, their aid to China could not be handed over to the Eighth Route Army.Regarding this statement, the Eighth Route Army still has a lot of complaints.

When Zhou Enlai mentioned this matter, He Yingqin also smiled and said: "There are quite a few planes received from the Soviet Union, but at present we have too few pilots who can fight, and we want them to take off to fight against the little devils. I'm afraid it will take a while!"

As Minister of Military and Political Affairs, He Yingqin naturally knew that the Eighth Route Army had asked the Soviet Union to allocate a batch of fighter planes to aid China.It's a pity that the Soviet Union did not seem to agree, and hoped that these aircraft would be used by the Central Army.

After all, in the eyes of many people, the Eighth Route Army, not to mention the Air Force, does not even have many pilots.At present, the Eighth Route Army is still negotiating with the Soviet Union to purchase aero-engines and a batch of mechanical equipment.

At least in He Zhengdao's opinion, the performance of the planes aided by the Soviet Union to China was not as good as that of the little devil's planes.Most of these Soviet-style aircraft with less than superior performance arrived in China in the form of loans.

And He Zhengdao felt that if he could import aero engines from the Soviet Union, he might be able to set up an aircraft factory in advance.It's just that the funds required to spend are indeed a bit too much for the current Eighth Route Army.

Even though the Eighth Route Army has received a lot of aid now, the military industry itself is a money-burning industry.Therefore, the Eighth Route Army is still negotiating with the Soviet Union regarding the purchase of aero-engines and a batch of mechanical equipment.

Just when the bomber formation dispatched by the Kwantung Army bombed all the way from Suiyuan to Yulin City.Seeing the Japanese planes appearing over the city, He Zhengdao also felt that this time, the air force of these little devils must be severely taught.

'Get me the air force! '

Thinking of the Air Force Brigade currently in the Eighth Route Army, which is also in a state of strict secrecy, He Zhengdao felt that this time, the Air Force should be dispatched again.Even if there are not many planes in the brigade, it is still suitable for chasing and destroying the remnants of the enemy.

"Zheng Shaoyu, your Air Force is ready for battle."After the air defense battle starts, if the little devil's fighter jets are almost destroyed by us.I will leave the rest to your Air Force Brigade, and I will let them come and go. '

'Yes, please rest assured, the commander, our aviation brigade is ready for battle. '

'OK!But there is one thing, you kid, listen to me.You are not allowed to take to the air to fight, and I warned our pilots, I would rather lose the plane than see you in trouble.As long as people are alive, I will match you with the plane in the future.

The central government is already negotiating with the Soviet Union about the purchase of aero engines and production machinery.Once this matter is settled, we may produce the aircraft ourselves.Tell our pilots to jump off the plane if things go wrong, understand? '

Listening to what He Zhengdao said on the phone, Zheng Shaoyu, the captain of the air force, said helplessly: "Commander, I really want to go into the air to fight!"

'Don't bargain for me, according to what you say, I really want to go to the front line, so every time there is a war, do I also have to go to the front line?If you dare to disobey orders, you know the consequences! '

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Shaoyu looked helplessly at the pilots surrounding him, "Okay! There is no need for us to call for battle now, the commander's order has arrived, let us prepare to take off to fight at any time.

Let our aircrew begin to replenish fuel and ammunition to the plane. Once the order arrives, you must take off in the shortest possible time to chase down the little devil plane that invaded my base.This combat mission is in charge of the second squadron. '

As soon as the words fell, the pilots of the second squadron immediately cheered.The pilots of the No. [-] Squadron immediately yelled: "Captain, why did you let them go? Our first squadron participated in the Yan'an defense battle! We have experience!"

'stop fighting!I still want to join the battle!Okay, if you want to fight, there will be opportunities in the future.It was decided in this way, the second squadron went to prepare!The commander said that you should be careful about your own safety at all times. He said that people are more important than airplanes, remember? '

'Yes! '

Seeing the pilots excitedly preparing to take off for combat, the pilots of other flight bases were very envious.After all, for Air Force pilots, it is their mission and responsibility to fight the little devils in the air! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Since the news spread that the Eighth Route Army had captured nearly 12 people from the No.5000 Division, the Kwantung Army and the North China Front Army had been reprimanded by the Japanese Army Headquarters.For these officers and soldiers who surrendered, the Japanese Army Headquarters also instructed to find a way to remove them.

Even in the telegram sent by the Japanese Army Headquarters to the two front armies, it was clearly indicated that these Japanese soldiers who surrendered were all traitors.This definition undoubtedly made the Japanese invaders who are still in China feel real fear.

Once identified as traitors, it means that even if they can return home alive, they will be severely punished by the government.The most important thing is that for the traitors, the special high-level spies who are active in all parts of China will try their best to solve them.

After learning that the Central Army sent a delegation, they wanted to ask for these prisoners from the Eighth Route Army.I understand that the Central Army wants to use these captives to carry out anti-war propaganda. If the Central Army succeeds, the Japanese army may lose face and go abroad.

Today in Asia and even some countries in the world, the Japanese army is undoubtedly the elite representative of the Asian army.If the Central Army is really allowed to pull those captured generals and soldiers to declare war against the war, I am afraid that Ribo's reputation in the world will be greatly reduced.

Although the little devils don't care much about international reputation, for them who admire the strong, they can't tolerate others attacking them with the incompetence of the Japanese army.It was precisely because of these concerns that the Japanese Army Headquarters strictly ordered the two fronts to cooperate in handling the matter.

We must do everything possible to retaliate against the Eighth Route Army who captured the No. 12 Division this time.Do everything possible to kill the two Japanese major generals who took the lead in surrendering.As for other Japanese officers and soldiers, the Japanese army also hoped to kill them.

As far as the Japanese army is concerned, if such acts of surrender are not severely punished, they are also very worried about affecting the morale of the Japanese invaders.For this reason, we should take this opportunity to warn the rest of the troops that they would rather die than be taken prisoner.

With the strict order of the Japanese Army Headquarters, the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army jointly organized this bombing operation.In addition to knowing the certain air defense capabilities, the two front armies deliberately chose the afternoon.

According to their bombing plan arrangement, the two bomber formations took off first from the North China Front Army, focusing on bombing Xi'an and other places without air defense capabilities.From the perspective of the Japanese army, it was the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

They have also organized many bombings on Shaanxi before. According to the Japanese army's understanding, the air defense strength of Yan'an continues to be strong.Bombing Yan'an is likely to result in the loss of the bomber formation.

Even if there are continuous replenishment of aircraft from the country, for the Japanese army, the loss of an aircraft will also feel distressed.For this reason, the persimmons were soft, and the two bomber formations focused on bombing Yulin and Xi'an.

When the bomber formation organized by the Kwantung Army flew over Yulin, the Japanese bomber formation that took off from Shijiazhuang had already started bombing Xi'an.Fortunately, at this time, the entire city's military and civilians had retreated into the air-raid shelter.

Hearing the constant explosions in the city, Boss Peng, who was staying at the air defense command post, said angrily, "Why hasn't the air defense battalion done anything yet? If you let the little devil continue to blow up like this, the entire city of Xi'an will be wiped out. "

On the contrary, Boss Zhu said calmly: "Don't worry! We only have two air defense battalions. In the face of the air force attacking by little devils, it may not be effective to fight back in advance. To trust them, we just need to wait quietly. gone."

With only two air defense battalions guarding the city of Xi'an, it is naturally impossible to bring the entire city of Xi'an under management.As the Japanese fighter planes continued to enter the air defense battalion's deployment and control range, many fighters from the air defense battalion had already put their hands on the triggers.

When the little devil's plane entered the firepower network, the air defense battalion commander in charge immediately said: "All battalion, open fire!"

Following the order of the battalion commander, the various anti-aircraft firepower points deployed in the city immediately fired hot anti-aircraft shells into the sky.Looking at the strings of anti-aircraft shells rising into the sky, the little devil bomber, who hadn't noticed it, soon suffered.

'idiot!There are anti-aircraft guns, pull up!Get out of their fire range as soon as possible! '

Even if there are little devils in the pilot, seeing that the situation is not good, they quickly increase the altitude of the plane.But in the face of a series of anti-aircraft shells that swept across, many Japanese fighter planes that were hit also began to explode in the air, or fell to the outside of the city with black smoke.

Boss Peng, who also heard the fire from the air defense battalion, looked at the little devil planes that exploded in the air, and laughed loudly: "Okay! You son of a bitch, you know the consequences of bombing us this time! You really think we are easy to bully! "

The bomber formation was ambushed by anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns, and the fighters acting as cover also began to increase their protection.For the sudden anti-aircraft firepower in Xi'an City, it was indeed beyond their expectations.

When these fighter jets began to fire high-altitude machine guns, the anti-aircraft machine gun battalion also began to join the air defense battle.Facing the increased anti-aircraft firepower again, these fighter jets also scurry around in the air.

Compared with the shooting speed of anti-aircraft guns, although the range of anti-aircraft machine guns is not as far as anti-aircraft guns, the firepower is more intensive than anti-aircraft guns.This joint defense of firepower in the middle and low airspace caused the Japanese fighters and bombers to continue to suffer casualties.

When the air defense battalion kept shooting down the incoming Japanese planes, the madness of the little devil fighters also caused the air defense battalion to continue to suffer losses.But with the threat of firepower from the air defense battalion, the little devil's bomber formation did not dare to easily ravage the sky over Xi'an.

Many brave civilians stood in front of the air-raid shelter and looked at the place where the gunshots erupted in the city.Whenever I saw a little devil's plane being shot down, I would applaud loudly.As far as they are concerned, they are also extremely disgusted with the little devil's plane.

When the firepower of the two air defense battalions ceased, the bomber formation from Shijiazhuang also lost nearly [-] aircraft.For such a loss, the little devil's bomber formation was naturally very angry.

On the other hand, the anti-aircraft battalion, which had run out of shells and bullets, could only say, "Quickly retreat! Go into the air-raid shelter for a while!"

As the firepower of the air defense battalion stopped, Boss Peng of the command post also said unwillingly: "Oh, our anti-aircraft shells are still a little short. If there are enough shells, these little devils will have to come and go!"

Regarding Boss Peng's reluctance, Boss Zhu also nodded and said: "Yes! After all, our current air defense weapons rely more on seizures. This time our losses are definitely not small, but the little devils don't want to get too much money .

What I'm really worried about now is the situation in Yulin.According to the telegram received earlier, there were nearly a hundred little devil planes bombing Yulin.On their side, the current air defense strength also needs to be strengthened! "

'It should be fine!In terms of anti-aircraft firepower, the independent column should be stronger than the headquarters and the center.In the briefing from the independent column some time ago, didn't it say that they had formed two more air defense battalions?There is also a 75 anti-aircraft artillery battalion! '

'You are also a leader of troops. Do you think that forming an air defense battalion and having weapons can form combat effectiveness?If this is the case, our two air defense battalions would have let the kid know about it long ago.For this air defense battalion, the usual training is also very important.

This time our air defense battalion can achieve such results, which has a lot to do with their usual training.But even so, they all trained for more than three months.The training time for the two newly formed air defense battalions of the independent column is probably less than half a month, right? '
