Zhang Nianzu, the commander-in-chief who has been hovering in the sky, has time to observe the bombing effect while coordinating and directing the various crews, and the current situation has exceeded his imagination!

Each incendiary bomb exploded, and the fireball that rose up was just like a flower blooming, as if the petals rolled out from the center, and then spread outward with a zigzag flame, thus forming a blood-colored flower, frantically devouring the surrounding qiē.

In some places, it is clear that no bombs were dropped, or it may be that the fire ignited some kind of flammable object and exploded, and large and small fire balls continued to fly into the sky.

Zhang Nianzu used napalm for the first time, and he didn't expect that throwing incendiary bombs would be such a scene, which made him stunned:

The air was filled with bouncing sparks, and flaming pieces of wood and shredded paper splattered in all directions, and soon they fell back to the ground in a whistling rain.

Zhang Nianzu and his crew could clearly see from the portholes of the plane that the fragile houses made of wood and paper on the ground were on fire and burning, like paper lanterns lit from the inside, all spraying orange flames from the inside out.

A whirlpool of wind tunnels formed by flames and smoke swirled, and hurricane-like winds sucked up huge blocks of fire and sent burning planks into the sky.

When these pieces of fire fall, they ignite anything they come across, and the result is that the fire grows larger and larger, spreading at the speed of a forest fire.

Zhang Nianzu and they are all northeastern men, and they have seen the perverted spread speed of forest fires. But today's fire is spreading faster than a forest fire!

It's terrifying, it's definitely a place where you can't stay here for long!

Zhang Nianzu saw that the six bombers had climbed to a high place, so he shouted: "The combat mission has been successfully completed!" All the crews followed me in a northwesterly direction, completing the formation at the same time. Then climb to 3000 meters and get out of it urgently with maximum level flight speed! ”

The little devils have strengthened the defenses of all places, but it's a pity that they forgot to defend their lair! During the entire bombing, all the planes did not receive any hits.

Seeing that his formation had left the coastline of the Japanese island for more than 300 kilometers, Zhang Nianzu began to relax a little in his heart. I didn't expect unexpected changes to always occur at the most inappropriate time.

The radar group suddenly shouted: "Report to the division commander, there are planes approaching us behind, and the current distance should be about 60 kilometers!" From the scanning signals, it is assumed that there were at least three enemy aircraft. ”

"Three enemy planes?" Zhang Nianzu speculated nervously in his heart: "The commander-in-chief said that the latest fighter of the little devil is the Type 96 carrier-based fighter, and the maximum level flight speed is no more than 525 kilometers per hour, and the combat radius is 550 kilometers. We are now flying at a top speed of 430 km, and if the little devils want to catch up with us, there is no time in the air! ”

"Attention crews: there are three enemy planes approaching behind us!" Zhang Nianzu frowned and thought to himself: "The formation was immediately adjusted to the first two and the last one, and the spacing was stretched to 500 meters!" When the enemy planes approached us, there was no time left in the air, ready to counterattack the enemy and cut off the tail! ”

Zhang Nianzu's judgment was indeed good, and the three enemy planes that caught up behind him were precisely the improved version of the Type 96 carrier-based fighter that had just rolled off the assembly line and was ready for test flight, that is, the test aircraft (A6M1) that should be used for the first and second test carrier-based fighters in the future.

The sudden air raid on Tokyo is a big event that shocks the whole world!

280 kilometers west of Tokyo is Nagoya, where Mitsubishi is located. The Mitsubishi Tokyo office called the main factory to inform them of the heavy air attack, and at the same time pointed out the direction of the retreat of the enemy planes, and three demonstration planes scrambled into the air to chase the enemy bombers.

Zhang Nianzu was ruthless in his heart, so he gave the battle order. And only this kind of guy who doesn't want to die will think of aerial combat with bombers and enemy fighters!

Half an hour later, the radar group continued to report: "Report to the division commander: The enemy plane is about 30 kilometers away from us!" ”

"Crews 4, 5, and 6 on the left flank immediately turned to the left, and crews No. 1, 2, and 3 on the right flank immediately reversed to the right, performed scissor maneuvers, and prepared to surround the enemy aircraft! Attention to all crews: Immediately and quickly climb high, and use large-radius scissor maneuvers to fight enemy planes and exhaust their fuel! ”

Zhang Nianzu issued the order, and at the same time pulled the nose of the plane, and the plane suddenly began to climb continuously. From 3,000 meters to an altitude of about 7,300 meters, the speed of the aircraft has dropped to 340 km / h.

The plane is pulled up in order to leave enough room for dive during the dogfight. Because the bomber is not maneuverable enough, the ability to fight in the air is limited. If the maximum level flight speed is always used at an altitude of 3000 meters, the flexibility is even lower.

The radar group remained unhurried: "The enemy aircraft still have 10 km, they may have already spotted us, and now they are separated!" ”

Zhang Nianzu held the joystick tightly and relieved his comrades: "It's okay, they didn't have a cannon that could shoot 10,000 meters!" ”

At this moment, the fighter operating the heavy machine gun in the tail shouted: "An enemy plane has caught up, right behind us!" The other two began to catch up with the crews of the wings, and the distance was already approaching 2000 meters. Strange, why didn't the enemy plane shoot? ”

"3000 meters, fire!"

With a roar from the radar group, two general-purpose heavy machine guns began to roar: Da Da Da - DW12.7 General Purpose Heavy Machine Gun, the effective strike distance of flat fire is 1,500 meters, and the maximum flight distance is 2,800 meters. Advance fire during air combat is intended to leave a barrage for enemy aircraft. In addition, the bomber is not convenient for maneuvering, and it will definitely not work if you do not fire in advance.

Sure enough, as soon as the heavy machine gun on this side fired, the enemy planes behind quickly pulled up the nose, and then rolled on one side to dodge.

The enemy planes did not shoot back, and there were no signs of enemy planes firing on the other two sides, which made everyone wonder!

The enemy plane rolled to the left, Zhang Nianzu turned the nose of the plane, and also thought that there was a big maneuver on the left, and turned his head with the enemy plane, and now the enemy plane was in front. If it's a combat fight, now it's time to take advantage of biting the tail.

But for bombers, this situation is simply useless. Because the enemy plane turned over and climbed to more than 7,600 meters, it had already exceeded the bomber's ceiling altitude, and could only stare dryly.

Zhang Nianzu saw that the general situation was not good, and at the moment when the enemy plane had not yet adjusted its direction, he hurriedly pushed the control stick forward and dived down at maximum speed, and then flew out to the right in a big roundabout, getting rid of the threat of the enemy plane's dive attack.

The imp's bomber can't roll in the air, but can only dive, climb, and dodge at a large angle, which is the worst problem in martial arts. Of course, in this day and age, it seems that no bomber is able to roll in the air.

Zhang Nianzu received a report from the radar group that it was less than 700 kilometers away from his old nest, so he shouted: "The time is almost up, and the No. 1, 2, and 3 crews began to retreat to the northwest to attract the enemy's attention. Crews 4, 5, and 6 are moving closer to me, ready to take out this enemy plane behind me! ”

At this moment, Zhang Nianzu found that the enemy plane behind him did not catch up, but after a series of sideways rolls, he rushed towards the front of Unit 5, so frightened that he hurriedly shouted: "Unit 5 immediately swirls to the left to dodge, the little devil is going to hit you!" ”

Seeing the little devil's plane in a desperate posture, Zhang Nianzu's order had just been passed out, and he suddenly remembered a question, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "Attention all crews, everyone be vigilant, the little devil's plane is not loaded with bullets, they just came up to hit us!" Pull open the encirclement and use machine guns against him! ”

Since the enemy has no bullets, the crews are finally much more relieved, as long as they are not hit by enemy planes, they should get as close as possible to enemy planes, and then use machine guns to kill them directly.

It is true that the enemy planes did not have bullets, and it is not known that any planes had been installed with bullets as soon as they came off the assembly line, at least not yet. No matter how slow the bomber flies, it is more than 400 kilometers per hour, and the three test pilots of the little devil simply have time to load their bullets.

However, after 1942, the planes that rolled off the assembly line in Moscow were all loaded with bullets, because as soon as they left the factory gate, they went directly to the sky to participate in the battle.

Zhang Nianzu did not participate in the entanglement with the enemy, because he was a command tower and now had to observe the overall situation. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you are full of joy when you see it: "Brothers, work hard, these three enemy planes are getting slower and slower, and they can't go back, and they will run out of fuel soon!" ”

The radar group suddenly exclaimed: "Report to the division commander: A large number of planes have appeared in the northwest direction, and the number should be more than ten, about 70 kilometers away from us!" ”

Zhang Nianzu's heart was shocked, and then he shouted loudly: "Observe carefully, don't panic!" The northwest direction is our nest, and it is impossible for enemy planes to come from that direction! ”

"Report to the division commander: I received a telegram, and the commander-in-chief has personally come to pick us up!" The radar group received a telegram from the base and was immediately even more surprised: "The telegram says that the commander-in-chief personally pilots the plane!" Division commander, the commander-in-chief can fly a plane? ”

Zhang Nianzu was shocked when he heard this: "I heard the commander-in-chief say that these planes are very easy to operate, but I have never seen him fly in person." I have long heard that the commander-in-chief is omnipotent, he can drive tanks, cars, and trains, and now it is not a strange thing to be able to fly planes. ”

"ZH001, I'm ZH002, please answer when you hear it!"

Zhang Nianzu exclaimed in surprise: "002, I'm 001, there are three tails here, but there is no gas and no bullets." We'll push them into the sea and come back! The crews adjust their formations and prepare to return, don't worry about these little devils! ”

The speed of the enemy aircraft is getting slower and slower, and there is simply nothing to be done.

At this moment, three fighters suddenly rushed out from the southwest and swooped down on the three enemy planes, firing at a distance of 3,000 meters!

As the distance got closer and closer, an enemy plane was finally hit and exploded in the air!

Before the six crews could cheer, the other two fighters also made a big show of power, and also turned their own enemy planes into a ball of fire!

It turned out that after the bomber formation set off, Bai Shujie began to fidget. He was a strategic scout in his previous life, and he could drive the J-7 in the twentieth century, but he really hadn't played this old-fashioned thing of the little devil.

Idle is also idle, he began to continue to think about radar and bombing sights on the ZH002. In the end, my brain was filled with the idea of "try this old antique", but in the end, I did not restrain myself, and finally taxied the plane to the runway, and then pulled the nose of the plane and flew into the sky.

The pilots of the bombing squadron were waiting in the communications room for the news of joining the battle formation, and suddenly heard the plane take off, which was not trivial!

According to the book, there is a squadron of fighters here. Now the "enemy" has infiltrated and robbed one of his own air command planes, which is simply intolerable!

As soon as squadron leader Sun Dezhi gave the order, a three-plane formation had already taken off, and they were going to force the plane back!

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
