Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Major General Sato, commander of Japan's Joint Air Force on the Korean Peninsula, initially did not pay attention to the carrier-based fighters of less than 80 independent divisions. Moreover, he believed that his tactics could cope with any air battle and bombed Incheon Airport.  It is destined to be an easy task to complete, and it can also be used to kill dozens of carrier-based fighter jets of the independent division, which is an extra bonus!

    However, when Major General Sato saw that less than eighty independent division carrier-based fighter jets actually adopted penetration tactics, split open his own security net, rushed into the bomber group, surrounded and killed them as expected, and  When he didn't show up, he couldn't help but cursed angrily, "Baga!" Other than that, he couldn't think of any words to vent his anger.

    As for the shooting down of more than 20 carrier-based fighter jets of the Independent Division, it could not calm Major General Sato's psychology. He saw with his own eyes that more than 20 of his fighter jets were shot down, and the Chinese, who were inferior in strength, actually achieved victory.  Slightly exceeding his own record, he still adopted active offensive tactics. Now, he was attacking his own bomber group wantonly. The anger in Major General Sato's heart was burning.

    However, he felt the same as his subordinate Colonel Kimura, who had no idea where to start. The independent division fighters mixed with his bomber group took full advantage of their small number, flying back and forth around the large and clumsy bombers.  Going in circles, if all of my fighter jets pounce on me, the probability of shooting down my own bomber by accidental damage is probably higher than the probability of shooting down the Independent Division carrier-based fighter jet!

    Fortunately, Major General Sato discovered that the attack range of the independent division's carrier-based fighter jets is currently limited to the formation of the 3rd Bomber Wing and has not extended to the entire bomber formation.  After all, the number of opponent fighters is too small, and after the losses just now, it is not easy to cause oneself the current passivity.  Major General Sato was very puzzled. How could the Army's usual penetration tactics be used skillfully in air combat by the air commander of the independent division's carrier-based aircraft?

    "Cunning" can only be used to describe the Chinese people. Major General Sato felt very uncomfortable.  If the carrier-based aircraft of the Independent Division are allowed to continue to be entangled like this, and when the opponent's large fleet of reinforcements arrives, I am afraid that my mixed formation will be made dumplings by the opponent, and I dare not forget it.  Independent Division Aviation, the behemoth of the Northern Flying Group, time is very important to me.

    "Order, the 3rd Bomber Wing, to turn its course to the southwest. Participate in the bombing mission against the independent division position in the Mokpo battlefield. The escorting 4th Fighter Wing will perform its escort mission. The other bomber formations will leave the combat airspace and continue their mission.  For the mission of bombing Incheon Airport, the 5th and 6th Fighter Wings must intercept and kill the independent division carrier-based fighters trying to attack the main bomber group!" Major General Sato issued a series of orders, with a fierce look in his eyes, and he could be killed by more than eighty people!  An enemy fighter jet.  Forced to the point of abandoning a bomber wing, those Chinese pilots are proud enough!

    All the Japanese air commanders who received the order felt a strange feeling in their hearts, Commander Sato's order.  Correct, absolutely correct. If the entanglement continues, not only will the mission of bombing Incheon Airport not be successfully completed, but the mixed fleet may also be surrounded by the reinforced independent division aircraft fleet. By then, no one will be able to escape. That Northern Flying Group,  It's a behemoth that's hard to beat.

    But it would be too cruel to separate an entire bomber wing from the formation and let the independent division pilots fight. Several Japanese aviation wing captains are all experts. They know very well that even if there is a fourth  The fighter wing escort, the third bomber wing, will also suffer heavy losses. Those Chinese pilots are top-notch in terms of combat will and air combat skills. Otherwise, they would not dare to attack with a mere eighty fighter jets.  A warning network composed of hundreds of fighter jets from the Imperial Army.

    Japanese air commanders at all levels found it emotionally difficult to accept Commander Sato's orders, but the Japanese army's tradition of always obeying superiors was well reflected. Soon, more than a hundred Japanese fighter jets and bombers were deployed from the main formation.  He broke away, changed course, and headed straight for Mokpo. In the Japanese formation that left the main fleet, there were dozens of carrier-based fighter jets from the independent division.

    Seeing that the Japanese air commander changed his tactics, obviously not wanting to get entangled anymore, Tang Yunfei's expression changed. If it were normal times, Tang Yunfei, whose military strength was at a disadvantage, would definitely like the Little Japs to do this. Hundreds of Little Japs' combat aircraft,  I can't eat it myself, but I can still bite more than a hundred of them. However, this is not the case now. Defending Incheon Airport is one of the two important tasks.

    If you are greedy for the small Japanese fleet in front of you, then Incheon Airport will be bombarded by the Japanese bombers. I am anxious, but there is no way. The formation under my command is merely entangled and blocked by the Japanese fighter jets, and I forcefully pursue it.  , not only will the current favorable situation be lost, but once Japan leavesWithout the cover of bombers, the fleet will be besieged by hundreds of Japanese fighter jets, which can only be the result of all sacrifices.

    Tang Yunfei sighed, gritted his teeth secretly, and connected to the ground contact at Incheon Airport. "Incheon Airport, I am Lieutenant Colonel Tang Yunfei, commander of the fleet's carrier-based aircraft. I am reporting an urgent enemy situation. The Japanese army has a mixed fleet of about 400 fighter jets and bombers.  Break through the blockade of our aircraft fleet and rush towards you. I hope to be prepared for air defense!" His only wish now is that the reinforcements from Qingdao's aviation fleet arrive on time.

    The mixed fleet commanded by Major General Sato finally got rid of the entanglement of more than 80 carrier-based fighter jets of the Independent Division, and successfully reached the sky above Incheon Airport. Looking from the cockpit, Incheon Airport was still in ruins, with no sign of being put into use soon.  In particular, the airport runway, an important part of the airport, is piled with piles of broken bricks and rubble, looking like a construction site being demolished.

    To be precise, if the garbage dump was swept by a hurricane, as for the other buildings, they would not have been repaired at all. Major General Sato couldn't help but wonder if he was just a reconnaissance plane and was deceived. This is what they reported.  , the Incheon Airport that will be put into use tomorrow?

    Major General Sato had the urge to curse, and even doubted whether the target he had worked so hard and even paid the price to bomb was of value. As for what he said, the scene of countless independent division engineering troops working intensively on construction was described as if he was talking in a dream.  , the entire Incheon Airport is like a cemetery full of ruins, standing quietly under the June sunshine of the Korean Peninsula.

    Major General Sato was disappointed. The urge to kill the prey turned into deep disappointment. "Baga!" He squeaked out a sentence through his teeth, preparing to return to the plane and give it to the bastards in the reconnaissance aircraft group.  A loud mouth, and then shut up tightly for a few days, so that they can remember it for a long time. Also, according to the information passed from the headquarters, is the latent agent blind?

    However, Major General Sato still refused to give up. "Order, the Fifth Fighter Wing, send a squadron to approach at low altitude to reconnoiter the situation on the ground!" He issued the order.

    Six Japanese fighter jets flew past Incheon Airport at ultra-low altitude in a two-plane formation. The strong airflow brought by the propellers blew up the dust on the ground and rolled up a dragon. Major General Sato saw the situation of the fighter jets reconnaissance very seriously.  Clearly, this is an abandoned airport. Why are the Chinese making such a big show of repairing it?

    Major General Sato was a little confused. His reconnaissance plane could see the wrong target. The lurking imperial agents would never make such a joke. There was only one reason. To deceive. Suddenly, he thought of a possibility to repair the illusion of Incheon Airport.  Is it a trap, just to lure out his own aviation fleet?

    At this thought, Major General Sato broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly issued an order, "The bomber formation will drop bombs as quickly as possible, and then return immediately. There is no need for a second bombing!" If this is really a Chinese trap, the three expected  In ten minutes, we are not sure. The large fleet of independent division's Northern Flying Group may appear at any time. But if it comes once, it cannot be justified without bombing, so let's bomb these ruins again!

    Following Commander Sato's order, the Japanese bombers quickly adjusted their formations in the air, then entered the bombing channel one by one and pounced on the Incheon Airport. Suddenly, the Incheon Airport, which had been as quiet as a cemetery just now, suddenly became noisy, and the surrounding area of ??the airport was suddenly noisy.  Numerous muzzles popped out, and with a roar as dense as raindrops, anti-aircraft shells flew into the sky one after another.

    The dozen or so Japanese bombers that dived first and prepared to drop bombs entered the bombing channel and then tried to change back. It was very difficult. They were the first to be hit by ground anti-aircraft fire. The dense rain of bullets tore the Japanese fighter planes into pieces.  , dozens of black smoke clouds exploded in the sky.

    The second wave of anti-aircraft shells was aimed at the second batch of Japanese bombers entering the bombing channel. The shells were all over the sky, and the smoke clouds generated after the explosions enveloped the airspace of Incheon Airport. The smoke clouds were capable of causing fatal damage to the bombers.  Countless metal fragments were produced, and the second batch of Japanese bombers that entered the bombing channel were also exploded in the air. This shows the intensity of the independent division's ground anti-aircraft fire.

    "It turned out to be a trap. The engineering troops of the Independent Division disguised themselves as an airport!" Major General Sato was shocked at first when faced with the sudden anti-aircraft fire, but then he felt relieved and quickly made the correct judgment.

    ¡°If the commander of the independent division at Incheon Airport designed a trap to use ground anti-aircraft firepower to give his bomber group a surprise attack, such a trap would completely reassure Major General Sato.

    Such intensive air defense artillery fire also proves from another perspective that Incheon Airport is a key protection target of the independent division aviation. Reconnaissance aircraft and imperialThe latent agent did not lie!
