Chapter 22 Air Showdown

() [Seeking collection, seeking recommendation, seeking various tickets, update at 0:6 and [-]:[-] pm tomorrow]

The air battle took the lead over the Sidon Line, and the Japanese ground troops had already been beaten and retreated steadily. Seeing that the Chinese army was about to close together, completely blocking the Japanese army's retreat, and the reinforcements were blocked by the Chinese Air Force. They are all fighting with flesh and blood, and the Chinese army has the superiority in numbers, and it seems that the Japanese army will soon be unable to hold on.

China's bf109 and more than 160 Type 96 bombers of the Japanese army encountered on the Sidon line. The Japanese army wanted to bomb the Chinese armored division. Now that they have encountered so many advanced fighter jets, they can only bomb the Sidon line. In the squadron, how could Hartman's air team make him get what he wanted.

Since the Japanese army did not have fighter jets to cover this kind of long-distance bombing, Okuda, as the commander of the team this time, adopted a dense formation of bombers and relied on the cooperation of various machine guns and artillery to form a fire net for defense. Each Type 96 G3M medium bomber Equipped with one 1mm machine gun and three machine gun turrets, it was considered very good self-defense firepower at the time.

This approach is also a commonly used tactic in the strategic bombing of Germany and Japan by the US B-24 and B17 bombers.However, compared with the hedgehog-like self-defense artillery fire of the b-17 "Sky Fortress", the Type 96 is too thin, so Okuda's phalanx tactics cannot be effective at all.

More than 70 bf109s were one of the most advanced piston fighters at that time. Before the P51 Mustang and Backfire came out, other piston fighters in the world were no match for him. Seeing that the Japanese bombers were in dense formation, Hartman ordered the fighters immediately Divided into two groups, one group went up to high altitude and hit from top to bottom, the other group went down to low altitude and hit from bottom to top, and the side was where the Japanese bombers had the strongest firepower. Hartman didn't send planes at all go.

The top and belly of the Japanese bomber's fuselage are vulnerable, and the firepower is also weak. This has completely turned into a one-sided massacre. Hartman's charge set more than 30 Japanese bombers on fire. The bomber panicked now, this is completely death!Hurry up and drop the bomb, no matter how much it blows up, the bomber will fly much faster without the bomb, at this speed, there is no escape at all, even if they drop the bomb, can they run past bf109?The answer is no, wishes are good.

The remaining bombers in Japan opened their magazines one after another and dropped bombs indiscriminately. The screaming sound of the bombs falling made people feel creepy, and then large clouds and mist rose from the ground. Within a radius of two or three kilometers, there were all Japanese military aircraft The bombs dropped, except for the reinforced concrete fortifications built by Zhang Jun.Everything else was floating clouds, and the Japanese and Japanese troops fighting in the melee below all vanished into thin air at the same time, reduced to ashes in the explosion.

At this time, the Japanese troops who were struggling on the Sidon Line were all killed by their own people, and the soldiers of the two attacking regiments also died heroically, but there are so many Japanese troops!Seeing that there was no defender in the Japanese army's gap on the Sidon Line, he quickly ordered the successor troops to quickly close up. This completely blocked the Japanese army's retreat, and the Japanese bombers did a great favor to the squadron.

Hartman turned the fuselage, caught up with the escaped Japanese bombers, and made another round of attacks. This time, he only shot down more than 20 Japanese bombers, and two of his own planes were injured and quit the battle.

When Hartman turned the fuselage to prepare for an attack, a larger group of Japanese military aircraft appeared in the sky. This time it was not a bomber, but a carrier-based aircraft on the four aircraft carriers of the Japanese Navy-Type 96 carrier-based aircraft Aircraft, the Japanese Navy's carrier-based aircraft can appear here, indicating that the Japanese Navy's aircraft carrier is not far from Shanghai, otherwise their combat radius is not enough. Hartman was ordered to find this Japanese aircraft carrier before, but he has never been able to I found out that the voyage of ju87 is not very far, and now it is possible to capture the aircraft carrier of the Japanese army. How could Hartman miss such an opportunity:

"Order, all Ju87 bombers immediately go to the waters around Shanghai to look for Japanese aircraft carriers."

Hartman could only mobilize his own Ju87 dive bomber, and the horizontal bombers on the central yang side had little effect on the ship, so Hartman did not request the support of the central yang bombers. This time, it was a very wise decision, but Hart Man left a lifelong regret.

After Hartman gave the order, he took 74 BF109s to face more than 200 Japanese carrier-based aircraft. At this time, the fighter jets from the central and yang forces finally rushed to the battlefield, but at this time Hartman was already fighting with the Japanese carrier-based aircraft Together, there are fighter planes flying up and down everywhere in the sky. From time to time, fighter planes will plummet to the ground with thick smoke, or be hit in the air and explode. However, Japan's carrier-based aircraft accounted for the majority, and the loss rate of the aircraft was about It is about one to six, and this is because Hartman's pilots have not been trained recently. Otherwise, with the performance of Japan's 96 carrier-based aircraft, they would not be the opponent of bf109 at all, and would only be slaughtered.

When the planes from the Zhongyang side joined the team battle, the battle situation changed completely. The fighter planes from the Zhongyang side were tied with the Japanese carrier-based planes. The can opener of the carrier-based aircraft, three and 109 minutes of air combat, the two sides completely decided the winner, when each other's fuel was low, the fighter planes of both sides began to disengage and return.

A total of more than 200 Chinese fighter planes participated in the battle, but less than 150 of them returned, and more than 50 planes were lost. The main loss was the central and yang fighter planes, and Hartman's bf109 lost 8 planes. The Japanese army participated in the battle with a total of 160 bombers , Lost sixty aircraft, a total of more than 96 Type 260 carrier-based aircraft participated in the battle, only 120 returned, and 140 were lost. This time, the Japanese army lost two hundred fighters. It can be said that China has completely defeated Japan.

It is said that the ju87 fleet sent by Hartman bypassed the battle airspace and flew to the sea off Shanghai to search for the Japanese aircraft carrier. This thing is too huge, and there are countless escort ships.

Ju87 easily found the Japanese Air Force Fleet under the white clouds. The four aircraft carriers were 87 kilometers away from Shanghai. Without saying anything, they flew directly over the Japanese Aircraft Carrier and began to dive and bomb. The aviation firepower and frigates on the Japanese Aircraft Carrier The aviation firepower on board began to attack the ju[-] in the sky like a storm.

Dive bombing has several advantages. The first is the high bombing precision, and the second is almost vertical bombing, and the aviation artillery fire on the ship cannot have vertical strike capabilities. Its altitude range is 70 degrees, which is very remarkable, [-] degrees It is simply impossible to attack a vertically diving aircraft with an increase in speed. Only the aviation firepower on other ships can hit the diving bomber. The problem is that when the dive bomber is diving, the speed of the aircraft reaches [-] Kilometers, it took only three seconds from the dive to the bombing. Before people could react, the dive bomber had already dropped the bomb and flew away.

Ju87 issued the call of the god of death, screamed, and dived towards the aircraft carrier. "Boom", an aircraft carrier "Kaga" in Japan was shot, and a fire ignited soaring into the sky. The deck has been torn apart by the 500 kg aircraft bomb , and then exploded inside it. The second ju87 continued to dive down. This plane was hit by other escort ships and exploded in the air. The third one successfully dropped the bomb and continued to hit the "Kaga". The bomb directly detonated the "Kaga "" ammunition depot, and the violent explosion directly overturned the destroyer closest to him.

The other three aircraft carriers "Akagi, Longxiang, and Fengxiang" were attacked by ju87 at the same time, and the sky was full of orange bullet chains. Ju87 was also brave and fearless, flying over the Japanese aircraft carrier bravely, and began to dive and drop bombs If the 500kg bomb hits the water surface, the water column produced by the explosion will be more than 60 meters high. If it hits the aircraft carrier, it will also sink and float the huge ship, like a flat boat. The tragedy of the "Shenzhen" sank into the icy sea, "Chicheng and Ryujo" were severely damaged, the flight deck was completely destroyed, and fighter jets could not be taken off and landed at all. At this time, Japan's carrier-based aircraft also flew over the aircraft carrier, but the ju87 had already dropped bombs After that, they began to flee quickly, and the Japanese carrier-based aircraft was almost out of fuel at this time, so it was impossible to chase ju87.

They fought fiercely over the Sidon Line for too long, and their fuel was just enough to return to the aircraft carrier. Now that such an accident happened, their aircraft carrier was attacked by surprise, either sank or seriously injured, and the remaining 96 carrier-based aircraft did not dare to do the slightest hovering. Flying towards Shanghai quickly, hoping to make an emergency landing on the beach, this emergency landing lost half of the remaining 96 carrier-based aircraft, and the aircraft carriers of Japan's 1st and 3rd fleets were all wiped out.If Hartman notified the level bombers from Zhongyang at this time, then the other two injured aircraft carriers would be living targets, and they would never escape being sunk. However, Hartman did not request the level bombers from Zhongyang Go to support, wait for ju87 to return to the airport, and when carrying ammunition to bomb, the Japanese navy has dragged two seriously injured aircraft carriers into the depths of the vast sea, and they can't find them anymore. The voyage of ju87 is also tragic very.This is what makes Hartman regret all his life. He could have sunk all the aircraft carriers, so it was wasted.

Rommel led the armored division, attacking, attacking, and attacking continuously, the Japanese army had no air support, and even the cannons were destroyed by the Chinese Air Force. The fortifications were only temporarily excavated field fortifications. Rommel's armored cluster The advance speed was extremely fast. When Rommel defeated the Sixth Division, when the successor troops surrounded and wiped out the remnants of the Sixth Division, Rommel had already crossed Changzhou City with his armored assault group. At this time, only the 74th Army followed Rommel The first were two all-German mechanized infantry divisions. Under the command of Matsui Iwane, the Japanese army began to desperately block Rommel's advance.

The commanders of both sides looked nervously at the map in front of them, and then judged the other party's intentions based on the situation on the battlefield.

Matsui Iwane, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Shanghai Dispatch Army, was in Danyang City at this time. The battle report sent by the front line made this old devil terrified. In just half a day, I lost a chariot regiment and an elite standing division. With such a loss speed, I have an army of 20, and it will be exhausted in just a few days. Army soldiers are lost in vain like this, we must find a way to crack Zhang Jun's "blitzkrieg".
