Chapter 248: Linyi Air Battle

Those submarines, which were quickly produced, took advantage of the darkness of the night to follow the merchant ships that were replenished. After a long journey, it was delivered to the agreed place of trade with the Brazilians. After seeing the submarine with the surname Neng Superior, the Brazilians were obviously a little tempted. Brazil has large tracts of undeveloped land, and a random circle on the map is enough to pay for a battleship. Even if there is a primeval forest on it, it is useless to add to it if no one develops it.

There is only arable land, which is slightly valuable, but Meng Xiang has no intention of asking for it. In many parts of Brazil, a random piece of land is carved out and turned into arable land. There is no need to buy arable land, which will cause dissatisfaction among the local people.

Faced with the temptation of a super-warship, the Brazilians and the umbrella were negotiated.

Now that the deal has been made, all that remains is the question of how to enclose the land.

In Meng Xiang's impression, Brazil's iron ore is famous. However, according to the analysis of the information obtained, it has not yet been discovered on a large scale. In particular, the strategically located iron quadrilateral area has not yet been developed, not to mention the Carajas iron ore mine, which was only discovered in the 60s.

Meng Xiang, who had paid attention to the dispute caused by iron ore for a while in later generations, naturally would not let go of this opportunity.

The Carajas iron ore mine is located in a remote area and is now underdeveloped, so it has been put on hold for the time being, but the iron ore in the iron quadrilateral area with reserves of up to 22 billion tons developed in the 40s needs to be started early.

Although Meng Xiang didn't know the specific place, he didn't care about the little bit of land after seeing the map and having a vague impression, anyway, it was cheap, and he was directly in the big circle of the place with an impression. The sparsely populated Brazilians didn't care, and battleships that shocked their neighbors attracted more attention than undeveloped land.

Since Meng Xiang learned about the intrigue between several South American countries, the umbrella sent people to Argentina and Chile to sell battleships as well.

These countries are very sensitive to this, but Brazil has not yet confirmed it, and they will not take the initiative to pay for it because of the same financial downturn. Although they were a little excited by the battleships with a good surname-to-price ratio, they also needed to see the facts.

So, Meng Xiang gave them the facts.

Up to now, in the fourth shipyard of the Nanyang base, two Nagato-class battleships have been in production for more than a month.

This thing is produced without worrying about selling, as long as Brazil wants it, Argentina and Chile must also have unbearable breath.

Because the Nagato class was started in 17 years, it was also on the side of World War I, but because it was completed in 20 years, it was deducted from the discount for six years, and it was only one-eighteenth of the discounted price. But even then, it's super cheap. At that time, the manufacturing cost of the Nagato reached 43.9 million yuan. The two ships cost Meng Xiang more than 5 million, but after the transaction, more than 100 million yuan was received.

The coefficient for the construction of a Nagato-class battleship battleship with a standard displacement of 32,720 tons is 0.6, and the secondary shipbuilding center can build 12 tons per hour, which is manufactured day and night, and it takes almost four months. In other words, after more than two months, Meng Xiang will be able to come up with the facts.

But now, the most important thing is to repel the attacks of the devils and ensure the safety of the base area.

Huang Baitao led a brigade to capture Juxian in one go, and then attacked Junan, but the devils still went all out to attack Linyi. When Huang Huamin's brigade arrived, Lao Pang and Lao Zhang's team there had already lost more than half.

The two aircraft carriers of the devils have already arrived near Lianyungang, and combat, attack planes, and bombers have come out to attack in turn. But they attacked only one round, and the planes of the vanguard army arrived.

"That's a lot of planes!" Zhang Zizhong, who looked up to the sky and watched, sighed in his heart.

The last time the aircraft of the vanguard army rescued Linyi, there were only twenty or thirty planes in the sky plus devils.

And this time, the sky was directly obscured by more than a hundred planes, and the ears were full of the whistling sound of planes. Relying on the radar station near Linyi, it was judged that there were more than 20 devil fighters, but when the planes of the vanguard army appeared, more than 30 devil fighters came.

Although they did not have radar, they had surveillance personnel scattered in various places, as well as reconnaissance planes roaming the periphery, and when they saw the vanguard planes flying over, they immediately notified the aircraft carriers and came to the rescue. At the same time, in the face of more than 60 fighters flying over by the vanguard army, the attack planes and bomber crews that had just completed a round of bombing also began to withdraw.

There were significantly more planes of the Vanguard than the devils. Although there are a lot of planes on the two aircraft carriers of the devil, the number of fighters is not very large. Naval explosions and naval attacks to deal with the fighters of the vanguard army can easily be beaten into firebirds.

"It's one!" Hu Wen dived, and the Republic Thunderbolt, which rushed down from a high altitude, withstood the strafing of the devil's 7.7 mm machine guns, and sent all the bullets on the six 12.7 mm machine guns to the side of a Type 96 land attack plane.

After Hu Wen rushed from underneath the fireballs, he pulled up the nose again, but the wings seemed to be shot and a little inflexible, but the plane still flew.

A Devil's Type 95 shipboard fighter rushed over, and two 7.7 machine guns bit his tail and began to strafe.

Although the Type 95 is the last biplane fighter of the devil, those two machine guns really don't have much effect on Thunderbolt, as long as they are not hit by the vital point, Raiden's thick armor can ignore the bite of dozens of bullets from these small-caliber machine guns.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Liang Tiancheng next to him swooped directly to the side of the plane from the side, and the bombardment of six large-caliber machine guns at close range and the splashing of wood chips hit the glass.

Behind Liang Tiancheng, the flames that burst out made his plane shake for a while, and since seeing the thick skin and armor of the thunderbolt, many pilots' movements have also become a little risky.

Chen Ruixi was still driving the BF-109 at this time, but it was an F-shape. In view of the fact that the power of the B type is too small, this time it will have to face the stronger strength of the devil HNA, compared to the preciousness of the pilot, Meng Xiang does not feel sorry for the money, produced twelve F types, and began to replace the B type, in addition to the two MG17 machine guns above the engine, a 20 mm cannon was also installed on the central shaft.

Because the cumbersome thunder and lightning ability is only two hours, although they are relatively close to the center of Zaozhuang's empty finger, if they fight for a long time, the thunder and lightning may not be able to support it.

"Great! So many planes here! I'm going to be an ace! Meyer shouted, and after getting acquainted with the, he was able to fly the BF-109B in the sky and do stunts freely.

"You're going to pay me back first!" Nikolai shouted, "You owe me 30 yuan for the drink." ”

"I obviously won you by drinking that day, how can I owe you? You should pay for it! Meyer said dismissively.

"You scoundrel! I'll lose if I drink twice as much as you! ”

"You brought it up yourself!"

"Shut up!" Ding Xiaofeng said coldly.

Meyer and Nikolai were immediately silent, the last time the two of them fought, they were all knocked down by Ding Xiaofeng, who was still a ground crewman, with one punch, and directly suppressed these thorns.

Ding Xiaofeng is not a clone, he learned martial arts from his family, but he became obsessed with aviation, and due to his lack of level, he was assigned to the ground crew. His father had participated in the Boxer Rebellion, and he was not afraid of foreign devils at all.

That day, he punched neatly, which made Meng Xiang very admired after hearing it, and after listening to his wishes, he was directly arranged to the aviation team to deal with this gang of thorns. As for his flying skills, under Feng Ba's careful teaching, he can make perfect, and he has made great progress. It's no longer a rookie muttering behind those foreign devils.

With Ding Xiaofeng, more than a dozen people in the international air team are indeed much easier to manage, and those who are disobedient are all subdued by Ding Xiaofeng with his fists. Meyer and Nikolai became smart after receiving the fourth punch, and in addition to the secret scolding behind their backs, they behaved like good children in front of Ding Xiaofeng at other times.

This time, there were twelve crew members of the international air force of the BF-109B in their company. At a time when many pilots in the Vanguard were still very young, it was crucial to give them enough time to grow. When he can exchange money for time, Meng Xiang is never stingy.

Since the spies were targeting the Germans' planes, Meng Xiang quickly satisfied them, gave them the BF-109B, signed them a contract for at least one year, and sent them to the battlefield.

"I've got a fight!" Meyer quickly shouted, the devil's Type 95 biplane is obviously inferior to the BF-109B, Meyer, who is already a veteran of flying, after asking for the other party's entanglement, went around the opponent's back and decisively fired the machine gun.

"That's what I hit!" Nikolai, who flew from the side, shouted from the side.

More than 100 planes were under the same sky, and the scuffle was in a mess, there was no extra space to open up a safe distance, and the speed of the planes was very fast, causing two or three planes to aim at one is also normal.

Ding Xiaofeng didn't care about them at this time, he was being targeted by a devil's ninety-six type. Let him do whatever he wants to get rid of, but the devil behind him is obviously a veteran, biting his back all the time, and constantly shooting.

"It's over!" Ding Xiaofeng slammed his fist on the fuselage in annoyance, his plane was shot out of control and was falling down, and he seemed to be able to smell the smell of burnt smoke rising from below.

"Jump!" Sun Tonggang was his eldest machine, and when he saw this, he immediately ordered him. Ding Xiaofeng was unwilling to try the control again, but it still didn't work, so he had to parachute to escape.

The 96-style flew back and planned to shoot at Ding Xiaofeng, who was parachuting, but Sun Tonggang shook off his opponent and shot at him, letting him hide aside.

Hippolyte, who was not far away, took the opportunity to force away the Type 96, he had been trying the operation of this fighter plane one by one, and he was constantly familiar with the actual combat effect of this aircraft. But the level of that ninety-six style was very high, so he couldn't be distracted, and he had to concentrate on fighting with that ninety-six type, and neither side could help each other for a while.

The level of the devil's sea aviation is indeed very high, which is higher than the level of the pilots of the Pioneer Army, but their planes are a lot worse than those of the Pioneer Army. Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and in the melee, the planes in the sky are constantly falling with black smoke or exploding directly in the air.

The intensity of the battle on the ground has obviously decreased a lot, and both sides of the battle have paid attention to the sky, and whoever can gain the initiative in the sky will fall into the arms of whoever wins the ground battle.

The advantages of Thunderbolt have been brought into play, and they are not afraid of the strafing of the machine guns of the devil aircraft, and the power of six large-caliber machine guns can directly burst out, and when they dive down from a height of 6,000 meters, they are unstoppable. There are few people who can escape the target, even if the devil's technique is good, but the lightning blow of the deadly dive tactic is to cover the surrounding area with firepower, and it will fall apart if it rubs it.

Liu Zhesheng had already shot down the second plane, but he was also targeted by the two devils' Type 96 at the same time, and when he saw the bullet clanging on the thunderbolt's body, but there was no big loss, Liu Zhesheng was relieved a lot, and made a cooperation with the wingman Chen Huaimin, went around to the side of the devil, and shot decisively, and a Type 96 was immediately knocked off half of the tail, and after shaking in the air, it spiraled down.

"It's the ninth!" Liu Zhesheng shouted excitedly. With one game to go, his results will break through the single digits.

"Congratulations!" Chen Huaimin said as he gave up his plan to take a combat plane, just now in order to cover Liu Zhesheng, his plane was hit by another Type 96 on the wing, and it began to fall down. He was going to land in control, but he couldn't move, and he saw another devil plane rushing towards him, and he regretted not to parachute to escape before he had achieved the results. An explosion sounded overhead, and the parts scattered by the lightning that had hit the fuel tank fell from him with flames.

Although the thunderbolt also has a cover door, the probability of being hit is also very small, and the impact of more than 30 thunderbolts directly scattered the technical advantage of the devil. The large-caliber machine gun also dwarfs the 7.7 machine gun of the devil.

"Retreat!" When Major General Lucao heard that half of the planes had been shot down and there were only about 20 left, he had to give the order to retreat in distress. He didn't know that the thunderbolt's time was running out. In less than ten minutes, the thunderbolt had to return.

But the ammunition and fuel for the devil's HNA plane are also running out. If you wait until you run out of fuel and ammunition and are bitten by the aircraft of the Vanguard, the losses can only be greater.

"Entangle them for another five to ten minutes, and the bomber formation Mashan will take off!" Feng Yi ordered.
