Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A well-designed ambush failed, which made Liu Cuigang very frustrated. After that, he designed several more air battles, but they failed to take any advantage and failed to achieve the purpose of the campaign.  n¡Ê

    These veteran aerialists from Europe are by no means as impulsive and irritable as the Japanese pilots. They are very slippery. They seem to have an instinct for danger. If something doesn't feel right, they will immediately slip away. The Northern Flying Group launches an attack on the Japanese mainland from the north.  The air raids fell into a temporary stalemate because of the presence of these foreign pilots.

    To the south, Le Yiqin, who had rushed to the Ogasawara Islands to command air combat, also encountered the same difficulties. He did not have as much capital as Liu Cuigang, and he only had a strengthened naval fleet land-based mixed flight combat brigade with the latest  There are more than 800 fighter jets.

    The combat radius of these new combat aircraft commanded by Le Yiqin can cover Japan's mainland Honshu Island, Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island. Their long range is unmatched by Japanese and Italian fighter jets. In theory, it can target  Conduct air strikes on any targets in the above areas.

    At first, Le Yiqin was also full of confidence. He had more than 800 of the latest fighter jets and bombers in his hands. The air attack targets he could choose covered three-quarters of the Japanese mainland. How to attack them was not up to him.  To put it bluntly, it¡¯s called ¡°Having the initiative on the battlefield!¡±

    Just when Liu Tiehan's East Point troops were attacking the Italian and Japanese troops in the North American continent, Le Yiqin also formulated an air raid plan. He was a commander who would only do nothing but be generous in attacking other targets in Japan.  , not interested, selected air strike target.  It is Tokyo, the capital of Japan.

    At the combat meeting, Le Yiqin¡¯s reasons were very good and heroic.  He told the more than a dozen aviation regiment commanders and regimental chiefs of staff who attended the meeting: "The troops have been transferred to this palm-sized island for a while. They have nothing to do all day long. They eat when they are full and sleep. When they wake up, they eat.  , are you all in a panic, looking around with bright eyes looking for a fight? "

    The regiment-level officers below burst into laughter. Although the land-based mixed aviation combat brigade is now part of the Navy's Southern Fleet, it was originally separated from the Southern Aviation Group, including the current brigade commander, Colonel He Luming, who was also a member of the Southern Aviation Group before.  Commander of the 1st Fighter Regiment.  The officers are also Le Yiqin's old subordinates.

    Now, the old commander is back in command of the troops. In addition to being cordial, he has no restraint when facing the old commander. He can shout at the top of his voice: "Commander, brothers are so idle that their bones are itching. When will you follow me?"  Let the little devil have a fight?"

    Le Yiqin was very satisfied with the atmosphere and continued: "There is a war now. After research and decision by the headquarters, the southern air offensive force will conduct a large-scale bombing of Tokyo, the capital of Japan. Let the old Emperor of Japan  I can't sleep, the combat operation will start in the next few days, and today's military meeting is to study this matter!"

    The commanders and chiefs of staff of each regiment were silent.  Whispering among each other below, everyone knows.  The carrier-based aircraft group of the Southern Fleet just bombed Tokyo not long ago. Now, the commander proposes to bomb Tokyo. I am afraid it is not easy. They are all experts. The last time the carrier-based aircraft group of the Southern Fleet bombed Tokyo, it was accounted for.  Sneak attacks and aircraft carriers are cheap and can be achieved by surprise.

    Now, the little Japanese air defense forces who have suffered a loss must be heavily guarded. Furthermore, taking off from the Ogasawara Islands Airport is definitely a long-distance attack. When it approaches the southern land line of Japan, it will be detected by the Japanese ground radar.  It would be okay if the fleet only had fighter jets, and they could escape from the battlefield at any time, but with bombers, it would not be that easy. If they were besieged by a heavy army of Japanese soldiers, it would be very dangerous!

    The reactions of the officers all fell into Le Yiqin's eyes. Of course he knew the concerns of his subordinates, so he frowned slightly and said: "What some officers are thinking is that Tokyo, the capital of Japan, has already been hit by a bomb once, and again.  It is the residence of the Emperor of Japan, and there will definitely be a heavy concentration of troops and tight defense. Don¡¯t stir up a hornet¡¯s nest, or you will be stung all over your head if you take advantage of it!¡±

    "The idea makes sense, but it is not bold enough and has too many concerns. It is said in the art of war that troops are impermanent and water is impermanent. If we think this way, the little devil's air commander will also think so, thinking that we dare not bomb Tokyo again.  , I want to do the opposite and throw bombs into the streets of Tokyo. You are all soldiers brought out by me, Le Yiqin. You know my faults. It¡¯s boring to make small troubles. If you want to do it, do it big! "

    Le Yiqin's mouth was dry as he spoke, so he picked up the cup and drank a few sips of cold water, and then said: "Don't just look at the difficulty, our combat aircraft, in terms of range and performance, must exceed all active combat equipment equipped by the Little Devil Air Force.  Aircraft, our pilots are all veterans who have fought on the battlefield, this is an advantage!¡±

    "Of course, before bombing Tokyo, we need to fight a few small-scale air battles to muddy the waters."??Attract the attention of the little devils away from the surrounding Tokyo in order to conceal our final battle intention. Therefore, Shizuoka in the west of Tokyo was chosen as the first air strike target!  "

    "The commander has reported that the Japs have recently recruited a group of fighter pilots from Europe. It is said that they are all seasoned pilots with rich flying skills and air combat experience. We have never fought against these foreign Japs, so the air raid on Shizuoka is also of a trial nature.  , no bombers!"

    "For the specific combat deployment, I will lead the team and command the first to third regiments of fighter jets to form the first echelon to attack. Then, He Luming will command the fourth to sixth regiments to form the second echelon, half an hour later than the first echelon.  On the one hand, we will attack as backup to support the first echelon. On the other hand, if we have the opportunity, we might as well fire a few rounds of bullets in Shizuoka. The operation time is set at six o'clock tomorrow morning! The chief of staff is responsible for the ground command!"

    After speaking, Le Yiqin looked at He Zhijun, Chief of Staff of the Southern Flying Group, and He Luming, Commander of the Land-Based Combat Brigade, and said, "Chief of Staff He and Brigadier He, do you have any additional comments?"

    He Zhijun and He Luming looked at each other. In fact, Le Yiqin's air raid on Tokyo was not discussed at the headquarters meeting. The two of them only found out about it just now. Although they felt that the air raid on Tokyo was a bit risky, it seemed that it was not necessary.  That's right, but out of my consistent confidence and respect for Le Yiqin, it's hard to object.

    He Zhijun nodded and said: "Commander, I have no objection. Do you want to report the battle plan you just formulated to the division commander?"

    "No need!" Le Yiqin said simply: "Before coming to the Ogasawara Islands, the teacher told me how to beat him without interfering!"

    "I also agree with the commander's combat plan." He Luming said: "However, there is one thing I object to, which is the issue of commanding the first echelon of aircraft. I think that I, the brigade commander, should personally take command, and you, commander, should be there  Direct the overall situation at the airport instead of fighting in person! "

    "Okay, don't fight with me!" Le Yiqin interrupted He Luming, with a threatening tone in his voice, and said: "Your wings have grown hard, how dare you compete with me? When you followed me, you  Have you ever seen me fight in person?"

    He Luming scratched his head and said "hehe" happily, not daring to speak.

    At six o'clock in the morning the next day, Le Yiqin commanded nearly 200 new fighter jets from three fighter regiments. They took off from Chichijima Field Airport in the Ogasawara Islands and flew towards Shizuoka against the morning glow. In order to maximize the  To increase the combat time in the air, all first and second echelon fighters are equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks.

    After an hour and a half of flight, the Le Yiqin fleet had approached the effective detection area of ??the ground radar along the southern coast of Japan's Honshu Island. "Attention, all regiments, we have entered the radar detection area of ??the little Japanese, and immediately adopt a combat formation!" he issued the order.  road.

    More than twenty minutes later, Le Yiqin could already see the winding coastline in the distance, "Everyone is here, throw away the auxiliary fuel tanks and speed forward!" He just finished giving the order when he saw that in the  On his own airborne radar screen, countless small black dots appeared densely, which made his scalp numb. Moreover, they were still surrounding them from the left and right directions.

    "There are more than 800 fighter jets of the Little Japanese!" Le Yiqin immediately concluded, "It's really strange. The Little Japanese's reaction is very fast. It seems that he was prepared for it? The two wings are outflanking. Could it be an ambush?"  A series of questions flashed in his mind.

    "Should we fight or withdraw?" Le Yiqin could not decide immediately. He was reluctant to have the chance to fight. At the same time, he also considered how confident he was in fighting this battle when the number of his fighter jets was at a disadvantage.

    In the end, his desire to fight prevailed. Le Yiqin decided to use the excellent performance of his fighter jets to adopt assault tactics. He first attacked the Japanese aircraft group on the left wing, and then quickly broke away from the battle and returned home. Determined, he immediately issued a battle order, "All  Pay attention, form three attack arrows, cover and cooperate with each other, and attack the Japanese aircraft group on the left wing. You must not be reluctant to fight and leave with one strike. Do you understand? "

    Compared to the more than 400 Japs' fighter jets, they were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, but they had the upper hand in terms of performance. They first disrupted the Japs' formation, and after a single blow, they were able to kill more than a dozen of the Japs' fighter jets.  Then he broke away from the battle and returned at high speed, making the little devil glare with anger. This was Le Yiqin's plan.

    In just twenty minutes, the Le Yiqin aircraft group exchanged fire with more than 400 Japanese fighter jets coming from the left wing. Three arrows pierced the formation of the Japanese aircraft group on the left wing. The battle began immediately, and both sides  The fighter jets were flying up and down, chasing each other and shooting at each other. Bursts of machine gun fire suddenly sounded in the sky, and the ballistic trajectories cut through the bright sunshine.

    Le Yiqin was at the position of the middle arrow and rushed into the Japanese aircraft group. The battle started, and his heart suddenly jumped.Once it sank, the situation seemed to be unfavorable. The three-arrow attack did not cause confusion to the formation of the Japanese aircraft group and gave them a chance to fish in troubled waters.  .  .  .  .  .
