    Chapter 833: A bloody battle all the way

    The fleet has more than a day to sail and is about to pass through the Korean Strait. Qiuquan's worries have become a reality. The fleet was discovered by a Japanese Navy aircraft taking off from the Kyoto base. A fierce battle is inevitable. As soon as the fighting starts here, the surrounding Japanese aircraft  , will swoop over like a wasp.  -< Piaotian literature registered members recommend this work >-%.net

    Colonel CITIC of the Japanese Naval Air Force commanded thirty-six fighter jets and swooped towards the fleet. Seeing the enemy planes circling over the fleet, showing no intention of coming to intercept them, Colonel CITIC almost laughed out loud. That one  Is this how naval aviation plays?

    Instead of conducting interception operations at the perimeter of the fleet, they were like an old hen protecting its chicks, waiting to be beaten. The Soviets were not as powerful as the legend said. They looked like a bunch of rookies, plus a few idiot commanders.  , that¡¯s why we have such passive tactics. I deserve CITIC¡¯s meritorious service and win the jackpot today.

    Liu Cuigang, who was hovering at high altitude, watched as twelve Japanese anti-submarine patrol planes pounced directly on the fleet, and another thirty-six "Zero" fighter jets pounced on the escort formation. He really couldn't guess the intention of the little Japanese air commander.  , I have never heard of using anti-submarine patrol aircraft to attack surface ships?

    "Captain Tang, please pay attention. Twelve Japanese anti-submarine patrol aircraft are about to arrive over the fleet. Please organize fire interception. Thirty-six fighter jets have returned to the escort formation," Liu Cuigang briefly reported the situation. At the same time, he also proposed  Battle plan.

    The squadron led by Major Xiuyan Zhenzhao was the first to appear near the fleet. He had the same idea as Colonel Zhongxin and came up with childish and ridiculous tactics for the escape fleet to deal with the air attack. It was incredible when they arrived. Immediately, six members of the Xiuyan Squadron  A fighter jet moved towards the left wing to outflank the aircraft.

    All the Japanese pilots' eyes were fixed on the increasingly clear silhouette of the warship, and their bodies were trembling slightly with excitement because of the upcoming battle. These rookie Soviet pilots were exactly what the Japanese air warriors wanted. They bullied the weak and feared the strong.  Japanese character and style.

    Liu Cuigang gave a simple order: "Two to one, end the battle within fifteen minutes, clear the airspace for the next escort formation, attack" more than sixty fighter jets swooped down from high altitudes, this escort formation was driven by Su  Although the maneuverability of the Japanese fighter is slightly inferior to that of the Japanese "Zero" fighter, its acceleration, firepower and protective power definitely exceed that of the Japanese fighter.

    The 18.8 mm caliber machine gun equipped on the fighter jet can blow up the little bird in the air with just one shell, while the 7.8 mm caliber machine gun equipped on the Japanese fighter jet can only be used when the aircraft is rough and fleshy.  There were several holes left in the Soviet fighter jets. Without more than a dozen rounds of bullets, there was no way to shoot down the Soviet fighter jets.

    The first person Liu Cuigang found was Colonel CITIC, who was rushing to the front. The unique painting on this guy's plane revealed his identity as the formation commander. Liu Cuigang's fighter plane was pressed down head-on at an almost vertical angle.  The fighter plane falling at high speed collided with the airflow, and the fuselage trembled slightly.

    CITIC's fighter jets became more and more clear in the scope. Liu Cuigang pressed his thumb hard on the launch button, and a chain of fire shot out from the nose of the aircraft. It jumped and hit CITIC's landline, leaving a cloud of black smoke.  Broken metal fragments exploded in the air. Japanese Naval Air Force Commander Zhongxin Colonel, with almost no reaction, was blown up by Liu Cuigang in the air, without even a chance to parachute.

    The ** Division aviation group, two to one, surrounded the Japanese fighter group. They rushed forward and fought fiercely, flying up and down, almost biting the flesh with bullets. Fireworks exploded in the sky from time to time. Ten minutes, only ten minutes.  Thirty-six Japanese fighter jets were wiped out. Liu Cuigang escorted the fighter formation and ended the air battle neatly with three casualties and no one shot down.

    The remaining twelve Japanese Navy anti-submarine patrol aircraft took advantage of the opportunity for fighter jets to fight and approached the fleet. Just as Liu Cuigang thought, these aircraft, which are specially designed to deal with submarines, really don't know how to deal with these behemoths on the surface of the water.  He circled around the aircraft carrier and other ships, not yet thinking about what to do.

    The silent ship suddenly became furious. The anti-aircraft machine guns on the warship sprayed out streams of metal jets, weaving a dense fire net in the sky. The anti-aircraft firepower of the Soviet warships is not bragging. The four-unit anti-aircraft machine guns,  The bullet fired is like a fan with a huge killing radius.

    The Japanese Navy's anti-submarine patrol planes were immediately caught in a net of fire. Eight of them were blown up on the spot. The remaining four hurriedly threw away the depth bombs on the planes and fled. Not bad, there was an anti-submarine patrol plane.  By accident, a depth charge in the shape of a gasoline barrel was actually dropped onto a battleship.

    It may be that the Japanese pilots were in panic and did not set the depth of the explosion, or they did not activate the explosive device at all.?This guy rolled around on the deck of the battleship for a while, and happened to reach Chutian's feet. Chutian was holding a quadruple-mounted anti-aircraft machine gun and was firing vigorously, when he felt a sharp bump on his heel.

    Looking back, good guy, such a stupid, big and thick guy was swinging back and forth as the warship sailed. Chutian had never seen such a depth charge before, but he knew based on his feeling that this was not a good thing.  The Soviet sailors turned pale with fright, and immediately fell down in unison, shouting wildly, but they all spoke in Russian, and Chu Tian could not understand them.

    It was the translator of the rebel group, and he shouted with a loud voice, reminding Chu Tian, ??"Captain Chu, that's a bomb, get down quickly." Chu Tian realized that if such a big thing exploded on a warship, it might be possible.  He barely considered how much damage it would cause, just like rolling a gasoline barrel, he pushed this frightening big guy into the sea in just a few strokes.

    There was a burst of water on the sea. For a long time, there was no movement. The Soviet sailors lying on the deck got up with lingering fear and looked at Chu Tian with a calm face as if they were monsters. Their eyes were full of awe and admiration. They were so faced with death.  Calm people, they saw for the first time, at this moment, Chu Tian became a hero in their minds.

    Chutian didn't have time to look at the strange looks from the Soviet sailors. He turned around to look for the Japs' plane. There was no shadow of the plane in the sky. It had long been smashed into pieces by anti-aircraft machine guns from other warships. He went to the sea to see the Dragon Prince.  , Chu Tian cursed in annoyance, and put down the anti-aircraft machine gun unhappily.

    The first battle the fleet encountered ended without any injuries. Liu Cuigang escorted the fighter formation and it was already time to stay in the air. After seeing the shadow of the next wave of escort fighters, he piloted the fighter plane and circled around the fleet, heading towards  Qiuquan on the deck of the aircraft carrier shook the wings a few times and flew away with the formation in his fighter plane.

    When he passed by the approaching escort aircraft, he saw Le Yiqin's fighter plane at a glance, "This guy, unwilling to be lonely, just flew back to refuel, and came here again. Isn't it the same for me, flying continuously?"  Two combat duty," Liu Cuigang thought with a smile.

    On the way back to Jinan Airport, he received a report from the Yellow Sea Shidao Radar Station from the Jinan Airport Command Post: "Twenty minutes ago, Japanese aircraft took off from the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese mainland in two large groups, with a total of three aircraft.  More than 120 aircraft are divided into two directions: north and south, and are attacking our fleet. It is expected that they will arrive above the fleet in forty minutes, alerting each wave of escort fighter formations. "

    Liu Cuigang's heart tightened. He knew that Le Yiqin's echelon only had 114 fighter jets. Facing more than 320 Japs' planes, it must be a tough battle. He pushed the throttle hard, and the fighter planes seemed to be whipped by whips.  Like a fierce horse, he suddenly jumped up and reached the highest speed. "Return to the airport as soon as possible. After refueling and replenishing ammunition, we can still catch up with the battle. We cannot let Yiqin fight alone, let alone let the warships that the division commander has given high hopes suffer any losses."  ¡±

    This was his only thought at the moment. When the other pilots behind him saw the deputy commander's fighter plane, they rushed forward in the blink of an eye. Although they didn't know what happened, they were unwilling to lag behind and raised their speed to the highest speed.  Same, fly quickly towards Jinan Airport.

    On the way to the fleet, Le Yiqin received information from the Jinan Airport Command Post. According to the estimated time, his escort fighter formation could reach the fleet in front of the Japanese fleet. With this little preparation time, he thought in his mind  Li filtered the combat plan.

    Immediately, the air and sea contact with the fleet was called: "Captain Tang, according to the radar station report, Japanese aircraft took off from both directions of the north and south. It is estimated that more than 320 aircraft will arrive at the fleet's warning range in thirty minutes.  , my escort fighter formation will arrive over the fleet in twenty minutes."

    Tang Qiuquan, who received Le Yiqin's report, immediately told the situation to the aircraft carrier captain, Colonel Magotrovsky, who was commanding the fleet. The colonel's eyes flashed and he muttered a Russian word. The translator quickly told Qiuquan that what he was talking about was  "Fight resolutely," Qiuquan was amused by him, because the pressure from the Japanese fleet's attack had also been reduced a lot. He told the captain, "We fight side by side."

    Not only Colonel Magotrovsky, but almost all the Soviet sailors were shocked by the air battle scene just now. Although the Chinese pilots had a numerical advantage, regardless of the tactical arrangements and the pilots' flying skills,  The level of bravery during the air battle was incredible to these Soviet soldiers.

    Especially those colleagues, carrier-based aircraft pilots, were even more shocked. They asked themselves, if they fought against Chinese pilots, what were their chances of victory? Did their commander use such superb tactics?  Do they have the brave fighting spirit and will of these Chinese pilots?

    At the same time, their fighting will was also aroused. Several carrier-based aircraft commanders got together to discuss what Qiuquan would do.After making the request to participate in the battle, Qiuquan looked at Magotrovsky with a questioning look. The colonel thought nervously for a while and nodded affirmatively.

    The deck of the aircraft carrier suddenly became busy. Carrier-based aircraft rushed into the sky one after another. Twenty minutes later, the Japanese navy's combat aircraft group appeared in Qiuquan's telescopic lens in darkness.
