    On New Year's Eve in 1939, the Japan-China Expeditionary Force sent more than 130 fighter planes with the intention of sabotaging the inauguration ceremony of the "Japan Peace Rescue", plotting to assassinate the Chinese anti-war leader Chiang Kai-shek and a large number of senior national government officials, and also attempted to bomb Chongqing  As a result, we encountered an anti-aircraft artillery group arranged in advance by our Air Force Command.  More than 600 anti-aircraft guns from France and the Soviet Union formed a dense firepower network. On the first hit, more than 40 unsuspecting Japanese fighter planes were shot down.  The Japanese planes evaded hastily, were confused for a time, and once again suffered heavy losses.  When the Japanese planes finally reacted and tried to climb collectively to avoid the fire from the anti-aircraft guns from the ground, they found that the Chinese Air Force fighter jets had already arrived above them and were about to dive down It has to be said that the excellence of the Zero fighter jets  Performance was nearly unrivaled for this period.  But no matter how talented you are, you still have to have a chance to show off, otherwise it's just like that.  But it is obvious that the Chinese Air Force has laid a trap long ago, and it is impossible to give the Zero any chance to perform Chinese fighter jets swooping down from high altitude, coupled with anti-aircraft guns on the ground that can support it at any time.  The Japanese aircraft formation eventually lost 103 fighter planes shot down in exchange for the downing of nine Chinese fighter planes.  Among them, the fifty-six Zero fighters received too much "care", and only four were able to flee in panic with the remaining Japanese planes.  But when they fled back to Wuhan Airport, they discovered that the airport was on fire and there were dozens of Chinese fighter planes circling in the sky Obviously, the Chinese were repeating their old tricks again.  Faced with this situation, the Zero was okay, its endurance was good, and it could barely fly to other airports and land, but other types of aircraft couldn't Moreover, there were enemy planes in front of them to intercept them, and there were dozens of Chinese planes chasing behind them.  The fighter jet has fallen into a desperate situation.  In this case, the Japanese pilots frantically called for anti-aircraft artillery support from the airport, but there was no news.  So they went crazy and, led by four Zeros, launched a desperate counterattack against the Chinese fighter jets that were chasing them.  In the end, under the siege of almost forty Chinese fighter jets, three of the four Zeros were destroyed, one escaped far away due to its speed, and the remaining Japanese fighter jets were played like monkeys by other Chinese fighter jets until they ran out of fuel.  All were destroyed in the sky above Wuhan Airport.  Of the more than 130 fierce aircraft, only one Zero was able to escape in the end.  When the news came out, the whole country rejoiced.  But the Chinese Air Force obviously feels that this is not enough for everyone to celebrate the New Year.  The next day, it was the first day of the Lunar New Year in 1940.  The Air Force combined four bomber groups with two bomber groups of the Soviet Union¡¯s Volunteer Air Force to aid China. A total of 120 bombers flew over the East China Sea to bomb Japan.  In this campaign, four places in Japan, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, Fukuoka and Kitakyushu, were bombed, many Japanese warships were blown up, and the pride of Japan, the Yawata Iron Works, was bombed Among them, the aircraft carrier "Akagi" was moored at the Sasebo Naval Port in Nagasaki.  It suffered minor damage, but its more than 30 Type Zero carrier-based fighter jets and more than 60 Type 96 Mitsubishi carrier-based fighter jets staying on the deck were all destroyed.  In other words, the Chinese Air Force destroyed more than 200 Japanese aircraft in the past two days.   "Take advantage of the victory and attack! Now is the time when the Japanese are weak. We should take advantage of the victory and launch large-scale bombings on their logistics bases, especially ammunition depots and baggage warehouses, to further weaken their war strength."  The third day of the new year.  chong qing, Air Force Command.  Zhou Zhirou¡¯s face turned red and she waved her fists excitedlylike a bull in heat.  Can't blame him.  Since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the Air Force has been hit repeatedly. It finally managed to win a few games with tactics, but it was always on tenterhooks because it was always worried about the Japanese advanced fighter jets.  But now, the Type Zero has appeared twice on the Chinese battlefield, and each time the entire army was almost wiped out.  What does this mean?  This shows that this kind of fighter is not as powerful as imagined, and the Chinese Air Force can completely gain the absolute upper hand by virtue of its numerical advantage.  But no matter how excited Zhou Zhirou spoke, those below who listened to him seemed to have become mute. They all looked at their noses and hearts, showing no intention of agreeing.  "What's wrong with everyone? We won a battle, a big victory Why do everyone seem to have lost their energy?" Zhou Zhirou finally discovered something was wrong, and his excitement subsided slightly, "Is something wrong?  What's going on?" "Commander," Wang Shuming looked at Zhou Zhirou, "Something is not good." "Is it not good?" Zhou Zhirou was stunned.  He has just been officially promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Aviation Commission, and the Military Commission has also officially issued a notice that he will be promoted to general soon General, although he is only a second-level general, there are several first-level generals in China.  General?  He has made meritorious service and been promoted. It can be said that he is at the most proud time in his life.  And it was precisely because of his pride that he wanted to achieve something more HeHe never thought about attacking the enemy's aircraft like Qin Wei. He couldn't use that method.  We don't even dare to use Chiang Kai-shek and Kong Xiangxi, a large group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries from the national government, as bait.  But now the Japanese have basically lost air supremacy in South China, and even in the whole of China. His dignified commander-in-chief of the Aviation Commission is still the commander-in-chief of the Air Force. At this time, it is still okay to bully those who can't fight back, right?  This was not a big deal, so he didn't even call Qin Wei. Anyway, that guy never cared much about this kind of thing. As the deputy commander, he almost never went to work.  But now Wang Shuming told him something was wrong?  "Chief Qin just called and asked us to discuss the air force's withdrawal from Ningbo" Wang Shuming said.  "Retreat?" Zhou Zhirou was stunned, "We just set out from Ningbo to bomb the Japanese mainland. The Japanese must be furious and will definitely take Ningbo at all costs If we retreat at this time, won't the Ningbo defenders scold us for crossing the river and burning down the bridge?"  "Who knows? Maybe Commander Qin thinks that the Japanese will do their best this time, so he doesn't want the Air Force to suffer too much loss." Huang Bingheng sighed: "After all, it doesn't have to be aircraft to deal with the Air Force. You can also use other weapons.  The means The Japanese knew they had no air superiority and would definitely bring a large number of anti-aircraft guns when they attacked Ningbo again. " "That's right." Wang Shuming nodded: "In the past, the Japanese might not have been able to gather so many anti-aircraft guns in a short period of time.  . But they have been at war with the Soviet Union for a long time. Although they have control of the air, the Soviets have more aircraft. It is enough for them not to confront them head-on, but to focus on their weak points. Therefore, in order to deal with the Soviet Air Force  , The Kwantung Army has a lot of anti-aircraft guns. If you just transfer a batch, it will be enough. " "This is something we must guard against." Zhou Zhirou did not feel uncomfortable.  Qin Wei's authority in the Air Force has surpassed his, but that person usually doesn't care about things, so the real power of the Air Force is still in his hands.  Even if he was promoted this time, there would still be Wang Shuming and others, and the Air Force would still be his foundation.  What's more, Qin Wei's contribution is too great, and it is not limited to the air force. He has no idea of ????competing with the opponent Just like this time when he ambushed a Japanese fighter formation, 500 of them were m1939 anti-aircraft guns from the Soviet Union.  , which Qin Wei forcibly obtained from the Soviets, and the other hundred French Bofors anti-aircraft guns also have something to do with Qin Wei, because Qin Wei urged Soong Meiling to buy them back from France with oil money.  In addition to the 80 105mm caliber heavy artillery pieces, 150 82mm caliber mortars, and 300 trucks that arrived not long ago Although the distribution rights of these weapons are in the hands of Chiang Kai-shek, He Yingqin and others, no one can  It is known that Qin Wei also has considerable suggestion power over these weapons.  Therefore, Qin Wei is now red to purple in Chongqing.  And the reason why he, Zhou, is what he is today, and the reason why the Air Force is what it is today, isn't it also because of Qin Wei?  Moreover, it has been revealed that Qin Wei may also be promoted to military rank with him and officially serve as the commander-in-chief of the Air Force instead of the deputy commander as originally thought.  In this way, Qin Wei was already on an equal footing with him, and he had no reason to feel uncomfortable because of his influence on the Air Force.  "Although we have won consecutive battles, we still don't have enough confidence after all. We can't tolerate any losses." Huang Bingheng sighed.  This time, Qin Wei came up with the plan to ambush the Japanese fighter formation, and he was responsible for the implementation, and he contributed a lot.  But after the brief excitement, he soon became unhappy again The Japanese can build airplanes, so no matter how much they lose, they will be able to build them again sooner or later.  But they lost one after another.  The performance is insufficient, and they never dare to let go of their hands and confront the enemy head-on But after the Japanese have suffered losses time and time again, they always become smarter, right?  At least he could tell that after designing one trap after another, Qin Wei was already struggling This time, the entire Chong Qing's anti-aircraft guns were concentrated and used. What other tricks could he come up with next time?  "It's a pity that the new fighter jet that the United States wants to help develop has not yet been successful. Otherwise, why should we be afraid of it?" Wang Shuming also said.  "I'm afraid that this new fighter jet will not be easy to develop." Huang Bingheng said: "The Americans have not participated in the war, so they are definitely not in a hurry. Maybe they just want to delay for more time and ask for a lot of money from us." "Also.  It's really possible. Which of these foreign devils is not the kind to put their hands in the coffin and ask for money?" Wang Shuming also sighed.  "And Chennault, have you been back to the United States for a while? They said they were recruiting volunteer pilots, but there has been no movement until now." Huang Bingheng added.  "You can't blame Chennault for this," Zhou Zhi said, "It was my wife who ordered him to urge Grumman to design a new fighter jet for us in the United States He is also too busy now." "I think the American government  It's not a good thingXixi, I heard that they have been sending people to monitor the progress of Grumman's development of new fighter jets for us I'm afraid they will do something wrong then.  It was obviously developed but not given to us.  After all, the Zero is basically the best now. A fighter stronger than the Zero is naturally an important weapon of the country. If that is the case, we will lose a lot of money.  "Wang Shuming said again. "You don't have to worry about this. Madam and the others have already thought of this possibility and have ways to deal with it.  "Zhou Zhi Judo. "Really?  "Wang Shuming didn't believe it. European and American powers would never sell their best products to China. This is common sense. So they always believed that it was unsafe to entrust American aircraft manufacturing companies to develop fighter jets to deal with the Zero. Because even if the research is completed,  It is very likely that the US government will intervene But although they object, they cannot respond to Song Meiling and Qin Wei's questions: If the Americans are not allowed to help, who can help? Or the Chinese will develop it themselves?  There is a way.  Don't worry about this" Zhou Zhirou was actually worried. Although the Type Zero had repeatedly failed in front of the Chinese Air Force, the pilots also greatly admired this Japanese fighter. No one dared to deny this fighter.  They can use tactics to defeat each other time and time again, but no matter what, they will one day face this fighter At that time, if they don't have a fighter that can cope with it, wouldn't it be impossible?  But are Americans really that easy to talk to?
