    What the Kwantung Army didn't know even more was that just two days before Wang Xiaoming launched his counterattack, the first batch of 180 new P-39 fighter jets from ten aviation squadrons that had completed the refit training, as well as the original Polish-made  Fighters, bombers, including a large number of aerial bombs imported from Jiangbei before the war, but only arrived at this time, have been transferred to various field airports originally built by the Kwantung Army in southern Tangyuan.  ¡¾.Com text and is ready to be dispatched at any time.

    Under the stimulation of the possibility of having a face-to-face air combat with the Japanese army for the first time, these aviation troops have already been gearing up and can't wait any longer.  After the transfer to Tangyuan, I became familiar with the battlefield environment and formulated a route map in the shortest possible time without waiting for a rest.  And made all preparations for battle, waiting for the Japanese army to come to their door.

    When the Kwantung Army Aviation Corps, at the request of Umezu Yoshijiro, dispatched almost all its available forces in one go, more than 200 bombers and fighter jets took off and completed their formation and flew towards Founder.  Above their heads, ninety P-39 fighter jets and twelve PZL 2-4 fighter jets have been waiting at mid-to-high altitude for a long time.

    Of course, Fang Ziyi, who was commanding the second echelon at Tangyuan Airport and had already arrived in Tonghe County, did not know how many aircraft the Japanese army had dispatched in total to support the Japanese army.  One hundred and two planes were dispatched at one time, just for stability.  After all, this is the first time the aviation force has been prepared for air combat since its formation.

    After returning from the center, Fang Ziyi, who had taken over the command at this time, prepared for this battle in accordance with the previous practice of the Japanese army's ground attack.  The Japanese army generally dispatched multiple batches of small aircraft when attacking the ground.  Usually, a maximum of thirty or fifty aircraft are dispatched, but the rotation is frequent.  I don¡¯t know if the Japanese army dispatched a rare more than 200 Fang Ziyi at one time, or based on their previous understanding of the Japanese air combat tactics.

    For Fang Ziyi, almost all of his subordinates are novices, although they have completed various trainings required for air combat.  But no one, including commanders at all levels, had ever participated in an air battle.  In other words, this team is all rookie-level from top to bottom.  No matter how long the flight time is, he is still a novice in air combat.

    For this aviation force, which is full of rookies from top to bottom, the only other advantage is that the P-39 fighter is far superior to the Type 97 fighter currently used by the Japanese army.  The Type-7 fighter has conducted simulated air combat training, and has a certain understanding of the performance of this main fighter equipped by the Japanese Army Aviation.  Moreover, Yang Zhen also provided a lot of insightful suggestions on air combat tactics.

    So for the sake of safety, Fang Ziyi discussed with Yuan Bin and Xia Boxun to take out all the planes at once and divide them into two echelons to participate in the battle.  The first echelon was commanded by Xia Boxun. With a numerical advantage of one to two or even one to three, he dispatched one hundred P-39 fighter jets and twelve PZL 24 fighter jets to form an air combat group, which was very likely to launch an attack on the Japanese army.  Air strikes, conduct an aerial ambush, and build an aerial protective net for troops on the ground.

    The second echelon was personally commanded by Fang Ziyi, including the remaining eighty P-39 fighters, all remaining Polish fighter jets, and all bombers. After the first echelon began fighting the Japanese army, it launched an attack on all Japanese airports in Harbin and Qiqihar.  Massive air raids.  Strive to defeat the Japanese follow-up aircraft fleet once and for all on the ground.

    This is the last time Fang Ziyi will command an air battle before going to the Soviet Air Force Academy to study synthetic command, so he takes it very seriously.  It's also very thoughtful.  It's a pity that almost all the Japanese aircraft stationed at Harbin Airport were dispatched. Except for a few spare aircraft, there were almost no targets worth bombing at the airport.  His painstaking efforts are quite a bit like a secret project.

    Fang Ziyi, who had not found any valuable targets, had to give up the air raid on Harbin Airport in order to avoid wasting bombs that were still relatively precious to him.  However, Fang Ziyi found an empty place in Harbin, and on the way back, he discovered a convoy transporting the independent second garrison to reinforce Fang Zheng.

    Fang Ziyi, who had saved everything in the first battle, spread all his anger on this convoy. A large fleet of more than a hundred aircraft, a bomb and a gun, directly killed two-thirds of the independent second garrison.  Fang Zheng went back home without even entering.  Fang Ziyi, who had vented his anger on the convoy below, had no idea how much impact his fiery attack would have on the subsequent battle.

    "Compared to Fang Ziyi who fought against the enemy in Harbin, the heavy bombers that attacked Qiqihar Airport gained quite a lot.  In addition to the fleet that was transferred to participate in the war anyway, the remaining team of the Ninth Flying Regiment and the team that had just transferred from Nenjiang were all blown up to the ground.  Endo Saburo's follow-up air raid plan was directly strangled in the cradle.

    And lead the first ladder?Xia Boxun, who participated in the war, used two types of fighter jets at the same time in order to ensure the number of dispatched aircraft, forming a high-low matching model.  Utilizing the advantages of Polish-made fighter jets with excellent mid- and low-altitude combat performance, especially the superior climbing performance of P-39 fighter jets, mid-altitude interception and reconnaissance are carried out.

    ??And all P-39 fighter jets were on standby at high altitude in advance.  Once a Japanese aircraft is discovered, the tactics summarized in the previous simulated combat training with the Type 97 fighter jet will be used, and the solid body of the American P-39 fighter jet will be used. Compared with the fighter jets of this era, the firepower advantage can be described as ferocious from high altitude.  Dive attack.

    Xia Boxun¡¯s tactics for these fighter jets are extremely simple: dive, attack, and break away.  If air combat is really necessary, then all Japanese aircraft will be directed to mid-low altitudes where the P-39 fighter jets have excellent performance.  Yuan Bin repeatedly emphasized to the pilots that fighting with Japanese aircraft at high altitudes was absolutely not allowed.  The performance of a generation of combat aircraft completely surpassed that of the Japanese military aircraft, and coupled with careful tactical arrangements, even if they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, Xia Boxun still had a high chance of winning.

    In order to arrive at the Fangzheng theater ahead of possible Japanese aircraft, the aviation force cooperating with this operation had already taken off as soon as it started to get dark.  After taking off slowly and step by step after breakfast, the Japanese air force, which had spent some time forming formations in the air, arrived at the theater. Chief of Staff Xia Boxun, who personally led the team to take off, was already impatient to wait.

    Although with the support of Wang Xiaoming, many air observation posts have been deployed in the west of Fangzheng.  But the Japanese army still didn't arrive, so he thought that his trip today might be in vain.  In fact, it was not that the Japanese army arrived late, but that he was too impatient in his eagerness to produce some results.

    When he received a report from the ground that the Japanese aircraft had arrived over Fangzheng after an extended service life, Xia Boxun suppressed the joy in his heart and issued the attack order in accordance with the previously formulated tactical requirements.  Although the reports received stated that the Japanese army dispatched an extremely rare large-scale aircraft formation this time, Xia Boxun, who was not afraid of tigers as a newborn, still led the team to meet them without any danger.

    Before the attack, Hashimoto Nobuhide, the commander of the Japanese ninth flight regiment who led the attack this time, was told by Saburo Endo, the commander of the Kwantung Army Aviation Corps who rushed to Harbin from Xinjing, that he must be extra careful after entering the battlefield.  Fighters are not allowed to leave the formation.  No matter what happens, we must protect the fighter jets.

    For Major General Nobuhide Hashimoto, although he is a major general of the Army Air Force, the Japanese Army Air Force has always had rigid tactics, and he does not know that the characteristics of flexibility are fully displayed in him.  Perhaps for Major General Nobuhide Hashimoto, he is qualified as a pilot, but as an air combat commander, his mind is somewhat rigid.

    ¡°He carried out Saburo Endo¡¯s orders to the letter.  Strictly order the fighters of several flying squadrons to provide almost constant personal protection to the bomber group. In this way, all the bombers seem to be safe because of the personal protection of the nannies.  However, all the fighters were tightly tied to the bombers, which greatly restricted the maneuverability of the fighters themselves.

    In order to ensure bombing accuracy, the flying height of the bomber is not high.  This in turn caused the fighter jets that were escorting them to have no choice but to give up the excellent high-altitude maneuverability of Japanese aircraft and accompany them to wander at mid- to low-altitudes of three to four thousand meters.  Tactical mistakes first paved the way for the Japanese defeat in this air battle.

    Due to tactical mistakes, just when the two armies were extremely close, the overly cautious Japanese airmen had not yet discovered the opponents hiding above their heads who had been waiting for a long time, nor did they realize that not far behind them, they had just  As soon as they entered Fangzheng's territory, they used the cover of the clouds to quietly follow two P-39 fighter jets.  When the opponent swooped down from the high school at a high speed, Hashimoto Nobuhide and his fleet had almost no reaction.

    The P-39 fighter jet swooping down from a high altitude is known for its powerful firepower and sturdy body that can withstand huge overloads.  Facing the Japanese aircraft group flying towards Fang Zheng in a dense formation with almost no preparation, they launched an attack that was close to massacre.

    Because the Japanese military aircraft group is too dense, the P-39 fighter group that pounces from high altitudes hardly needs to deliberately aim, and the bullets fired will find one or two targets and drill into them.  The 12.7mm bullet is far from comparable to the popular 7.7mm or 762mm ordinary caliber machine gun bullets.

    When Xia Boxun commanded his fleet to complete the first dive attack and all the fighter jets pulled up in neat formation, more than fifty Japanese aircraft were either hit and exploded in the sky, or they fell to the ground covered with fire.  .  At this time, the Japanese aircraft were like a flock of frightened birds.?'s formation was beaten to pieces.  This is exactly what Xia Boxun wants.

    Xia Boxun killed more than half of the Japanese escort fighters in one move, and also took with him more than 20 Type 97 dive bombers and four Type 97 heavy bombers.  In order to pursue mobility and speed, Japanese aircraft basically did not install armor and self-sealing mailboxes.  Under the attack of the 12.7mm large-caliber machine gun, as long as these aircraft are lucky enough to hit, almost no one will survive.
