At this time, Kato Takeo's situation was very bad, because other fighters and bombers were either shot down by anti-aircraft guns or shot down by enemy fighter jets. // Visit to download txt novels //

So he was the only fighter left on the scene, but the enemy's fighter jets increased to more than 30. Faced with this absolute disparity in numbers, he felt extremely desperate.

Fortunately for him, most of the fighter jets quickly left here and joined the melee in the distance.

But even so, he still had two Hellcat fighter jets clinging to his back.

What shocked him was that the two Hellcat fighter jets should be a two-plane formation that often trained together. The cooperation between them appeared to be very skillful and sophisticated.

On several occasions, he was almost cornered by these two Hellcat fighter jets. If he hadn't dived desperately to escape their pursuit, he might have been shot down by these two fighter jets long ago.

But what surprised him was that once he dived down, the Hellcat fighter jets would stop chasing him, and then the anti-aircraft guns would take over to bombard him.

Slowly several times, he figured out the way out, that is, once he entered high altitude, the fighter jets would chase him, and once he entered low altitude, he would be bombarded by ground anti-aircraft guns.

So what if he is between high altitude and low altitude? Is there a height where he will not be bombarded by anti-aircraft guns or pursued by enemy fighter jets?

This idea jumped out of his mind uncontrollably.

As soon as he thought of this, he started experimenting.

After several dangerous experiments, he finally figured out that height.

That height is - 3000 meters.

When he was flying a plane at an altitude of 3,000 meters, not only would the enemy's anti-aircraft guns not bombard him, but the fighter jets would also not pursue him.

When he succeeded in several experiments, he felt almost ecstatic. He is really a genius, Kato Takeo thought extremely narcissistically.

At this time, he finally had a chance to look at the entire battlefield, and he found that there was no Japanese aircraft near him.

The Japanese bombers in the distance have all been entangled by the fighter jets of the 98th Army. They are all desperately doing various clumsy maneuvers to avoid being chased by the 98th Army fighter jets, but even so, they are still flying one after another.

The ground was shot down by those fighter jets.

Those Japanese fighter jets almost all intercepted the fighter jets of the 98th Army. However, because they were at a numerical disadvantage and did not have an advantage in performance, there would always be a large number of Japanese bombers that were tightly bitten by the fighter jets of the 98th Army.

Live, then get shot down.

"Is the Empire of Japan going to suffer a disastrous defeat today?"

Seeing this, Takeo Kato said with a thoughtful expression.

This was his first time fighting against the fighter jets of the 98th Army, but he never expected that the result would be so bad.

Seeing bombers one after another being shot down by fighter jets of the 98th Army due to lack of fighter protection, he felt that his blood was boiling with anger.

When did the aircraft of the Japanese Empire become so fragile that they became lambs for slaughter?

All these made him feel extremely sad, angry and fearful. All kinds of emotions were tangled in his heart, making him feel a mixture of emotions.

At this time, he glanced at the airport in the distance. Up to now, not even a single Japanese aircraft had been able to approach within four kilometers of that airport. Even he had unknowingly moved away from that airport because of the fight just now.

Airport.

His eyes suddenly became extremely determined. Today he was going to bomb the target of this mission no matter what. Since those bombers were unable to complete their mission, let him, Takeo Kato, complete the mission.

Thinking of this, he turned on all power and flew towards the airport at full speed.

What he didn't know was that the radio channels on the ground and in the air almost caused a quarrel because of him. The pilots asked the anti-aircraft artillery unit to stop shooting, and the Japanese fighter jet was taken care of by them.

But the anti-aircraft artillery troops asked the fighter jets to stop chasing him, and then let them complete the final blow on him.

Lu Mingxuan frowned when he looked at the plane in the sky. He didn't expect that plane to find the dividing line of their air defense zone so quickly. He was really a very good guy. The air force and artillerymen must be quarreling over this guy now.

Bar.

"Tell them to leave this guy to the artillery."

Lu Mingxuan said to Gong Ruoling who was standing next to him.

"As you command, military seat."

Gong Ruoling quickly saluted him and said.

Looking at the lonely plane in the sky that looked like a martyr, Lu Mingxuan showed a disdainful sneer on his face: "It's really a mantis trying to use its own strength as a chariot. It doesn't overestimate its own capabilities. Even a plane dares to attack my air force base."

In fact, this air force base is the place with the most intensive small- and medium-caliber anti-aircraft firepower in Jiyuan. There are at least 16 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft guns, 24 German-made MK103/38 30mm anti-aircraft guns and 36 triple-mounted large-caliber M2HB deployed there.

As long as the heavy machine gun rushes near the airport, it will be hit by a violent storm of anti-aircraft fire.

In fact, Lu Mingxuan deeply doubted whether it could get there.

After receiving Lu Mingxuan's order, the two Hellcat fighter jets immediately moved away from the Japanese aircraft, and then flew towards the group of aircraft in the melee in the distance.

Although Takeo Kato flew towards the airport at full speed, he still carefully watched the two Hellcat fighter jets to prevent them from suddenly launching a dive attack on him.

When he found that the two planes were far away, he felt lucky at first, but soon he felt extremely scared.

Why would they let him go? Of course it wouldn't be because they suddenly became kind-hearted, so the only possibility is...

Thinking of this, Takeo Kato felt his whole body tense up.

He immediately began to dive downward, and then tried to fly at ultra-low altitude to avoid the bombardment of those anti-aircraft guns.

But it was already too late. At this time, at least 3 150mm anti-aircraft guns, 12 128mm anti-aircraft guns, and 48 88mm anti-aircraft guns were aimed at him at the same time.

Just hearing a rumble of cannons in the distance, dense explosions immediately occurred near Takeo Kato, and countless black fireworks began to bloom around him.

Kato felt his plane bumping forward in the air waves generated by these explosions. Suddenly he felt a pain in his chest, and a large mouthful of blood spat out from his mouth.

He looked down and found that his chest was stained bright red with a large amount of blood. Some shrapnel the size of a baby's fist had penetrated the nose of the plane and then entered his chest.

And his plane fell down uncontrollably. He tried hard to pull up the nose of the plane, but at this time a 128mm shell exploded under his plane.

The plane's fuel tank was directly hit by a hot shrapnel, and then a huge explosion occurred. Then the entire plane disintegrated in the air like a goddess scattering flowers.

*******

*******

In fact, Lu Mingxuan didn't care at all about Kato Takeo's fate. In his heart, he had already sentenced the plane to death.

Absolutely no aircraft can escape so much anti-aircraft fire unless it really has the protection of God, which obviously Kato Takeo did not.

Now he is concerned about the melee in the distance. As the number of fighter jets of the 98th Army is increasing, the Japanese bombers have to face the encirclement and suppression of more and more fighter jets.

It is destined to be a tragedy if a bomber without fighter protection encounters the Hellcat and Mustang with extremely superior maneuverability.

How were the great victories in the August 14th air battle and the great victory in the August 15th Nanjing air battle achieved? Of course, the idiot-like Japanese HNA did not send fighter jets to escort the bombers. They actually thought that bombers alone could complete the bombing of the target. As a result, they were assassinated.

He was beaten up by Fatty on the plane and then fled back in great embarrassment.

Of course this time was no exception. Seeing that all the aircraft of the 98th Army were like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep, they easily got behind the Japanese bombers and shot down one bomber after another.

The Japanese commander could no longer sit still, and finally three yellow flares rose into the sky. All the Japanese soldiers saw these flares as if they had been granted amnesty, and they all fled north as hard as they could.

Seeing this, Lu Mingxuan finally showed a smile on his face, and then said to Gong Ruoling: "Order all fighter jets to immediately pursue the enemy's aircraft and shoot down as many as they can, but they are strictly prohibited from entering Taiyuan."

"As you command, military seat."

Gong Ruoming said quickly.

"Wait a minute, and notify Yan Xishan that many Japanese planes may land on his territory. How many Japanese pilots can be captured depends on his ability."

Lu Mingxuan continued.

The Type 97 fighter jets do not have a long range. After such a long and intense air battle, they must be running out of fuel.

Moreover, they have to protect the retreat of those bombers. Lu Mingxuan can guarantee that at least half of those fighter jets will not have enough fuel to rush back to Taiyuan. They will most likely have to make an emergency landing on Yan Xishan's territory. For Yan Xishan, this is just a weakening of the Japanese strength.

What a great opportunity.

"Yes, military commander, I will inform him immediately."

Gong Ruoling said quickly, and then went to convey Lu Mingxuan's order.

After Gong Ruoling left, Lu Mingxuan looked back at the sky in Jiyuan. At this time, thick black smoke rose into the sky in many places. These should have been caused by the aircraft that fell to the ground and exploded.

By the way, I seem to have forgotten to order my men to arrest those Japs pilots who are still alive. How many Japs pilots can I catch?
