Chapter 0599 - Request for Reinforcements (Fifth Watch)

At the cost of six fighters and two bombers, it was actually just one fighter of Li Yunlong's unit that was shot down?

How can this be acceptable to Kiyohari Matsumoto?

"Smack!"

No doubt!

Matsumoto Kiyoshi's backhand is a big ear scraper and hits Kazuo Takeda in the face!

"Yaga Yalu, the face of the Imperial Japanese Army has made you lose your face!" Matsumoto Kiyohari almost roared and roared: "Our most advanced Zero fighter is a myth in the air, whether it is in the Chinese battlefield or the entire Asian battlefield in Southeast Asia, it is the hegemon of the air, I didn't expect that under your leadership, there would be such a record!" ”

Kazuo Takeda felt the pain and hot face, swallowed his anger, and waited until Matsumoto Kiyoshi finished roaring.

It can be said that Kazuo Takeda, an old devil, has never won since he met the Iron Brigade.

Whether it is from the Battle of Xinkou in Taiyuan and the Battle of Niangziguan in Taiyuan, or to the air duel in the Battle of Nanjing, it can be said that there was no victory.

If it is said that the bombing of Nanjing Airport was due to a sneak attack, the air battle that is now being fought is still lost.

After Matsumoto Kiyoshi finished roaring, Kazuo Takeda spoke: "Report to Your Excellency Commander, I am fully responsible for the defeat of this air battle, but the loss of this air battle, I found that there are also big problems with the fighter. ”

"When the Zero fighter is at high altitude, the excellent vertical maneuverability of the Zero begins to deteriorate, which is very bad, and the dive speed of the Zero fighter is not fast, and it is easy to cause the engine to stall when diving at high speed. In addition, the Zero wing structure has serious flaws, and if the dive speed is too fast, the parts of the aircraft will shake badly, and it may even be in danger of easily disintegrating! ”

"The China Air Force seems to understand our shortcomings and uses high-altitude high speed and high dive to counter us, and we ......"

Kazuo Takeda kept pointing out the defects of the Zero fighter, but Matsumoto Kiyoshi's face became more and more ugly, and he looked at Kazuo Takeda angrily.

"Smack!"

This time, without waiting for Kazuo Takeda to finish speaking, Kiyohari Matsumoto slapped Kazuo Takeda in the face again.

"Bagaya Road, you are simply a disgrace to the Imperial soldiers!" This time, Matsumoto Kiyohari was even more annoyed, pointing at Kazuo Takeda and glaring at his nose and yelling: "This time you lost the air battle, you actually found an excuse and shifted the responsibility to our powerful fighters, shame, shame!" ”

"Our Zero fighter has not suffered a crushing defeat in other battles in other theaters, but under your leadership, it has been severely damaged by the Chinese Air Force, and it is still looking for such an excuse to escape punishment! It's simply not worthy of being an imperial soldier! ”

Because in order to maintain a high level of combat effectiveness, and in order to prevent opponents from taking advantage of the Zero's flaws to fight back, the Zero's flaws have always been kept secret and known only to researchers and military executives.

An officer of the rank of Matsumoto Kiyohari did not know about this either, which was obviously normal.

Not only in the consciousness of Matsumoto Kiyohari, but also in the consciousness of almost all Japanese troops, the Zero fighter is an invincible air supremacy.

Matsumoto Kiyohari was very angry, and he hit Takeda Kazuo very hard, and a large black patch appeared on the left side of Takeda Kazuo's face, and blood stains appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Kazuo Takeda lowered his head and was angrily scolded by Matsumoto Kiyoshi, and after he finished scolding, he still stubbornly said: "Your Excellency, Commander, I am not shirking responsibility, our powerful Zero fighter really has a huge problem, I hope to attract the attention of the military!" ”

Talk back?

Dare to talk back?

Matsumoto Kiyoshi couldn't bear it, and roared: "Come on, pull me down and shoot me on the spot, so as to set an example, and let the vast number of imperial soldiers know the consequences of shirking responsibility after losing the battle!" ”

Immediately, two Japanese guards rushed up and dragged Takeda Kazuo down, no matter how Takeda Kazuo roared and struggled, he was finally dragged down and shot.

The defects of the Zero fighter proposed by Kazuo Takeda can be said to be of great significance to the development and improvement of the Japanese military and the Zero fighter, but Kiyohari Matsumoto did not pay attention to it, believing that Kazuo Takeda was shirking responsibility.

If Matsumoto Kiyohari had taken Takeda seriously, there would have been no subsequent rout in the air battle, and the Zero would not have been reduced to a suicide fighter, and by then it would have been too late.

Perhaps, this is the providence of God.

Although Kazuo Takeda was shot, Matsumoto Kiyohari was still very angry, and in addition to anger, he was worried.

Now Nanjing's air power is almost exhausted, and if Li Yunlong launches an air attack, the real Nanjing will be under artillery fire.

After thinking for a moment, Matsumoto Kiyohari said to the adjutant: "Immediately send a telegram to the Beiping Commander's Headquarters to inform the situation in Nanjing, and request air support!" ”

"Hey!"

The adjutant responded quickly, and now that Matsumoto Kiyohari was angry, he didn't dare to have any opinions again.

…………

At this time, the entire iron-blooded brigade had launched a general attack on Nanjing, but because the Japanese puppet army defending Nanjing was not weak in combat effectiveness, and relying on strong fortifications and terrain advantages, it was now a confrontation between the two sides, and there has not been much progress.

It's been three days, and in three days, the entire iron-blooded brigade still hasn't made much progress, and it has launched a three-day charge, although dozens of charges and positional battles have been launched, but now the positional defense line is still in the Japanese defense line.

The fierce battle lasted for three days and three nights, and the casualties on both sides were quite large!

This made Li Yunlong very dignified, because a long battle is very unfavorable to the Iron and Blood Brigade.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a way."
