Chapter 138: Seeking Death (Seeking Monthly Ticket)
Half an hour later, the fighter planes pursuing the remnants of the Japanese army returned one after another, and Qin Shou went to the airport runway to welcome these heroes.
"Captain, fortunately, we have defeated Himself!" A squadron leader said to Qin Shou with a smile on his face.
"Haha, you did a pretty job. I hope that you can shoot down more Japanese-British planes and become super aces at that time!" Qin Shou patted the pilots' shoulders and encouraged.
Qin Shou's encouragement was undoubtedly a recognition of these pilots. This also made these pilots who had gone through a hard battle very happy. They fought with the enemy in the sky in life and death. If they were not careful, they might sprinkle blood in the sky, just to defend their country and prove their value. Now, they have undoubtedly been recognized.
The officers and soldiers at the airport began to repair the bombed shells. The staff began to count the results and losses of this time.
Soon, the battle report was delivered to Qin Shou. During this battle, 72 P-51b fighter jets dispatched by the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force were shot down in total, and 5 pilots were killed.
Such a loss is undoubtedly a huge loss for the just-in-committed anti-Japanese and national-salvation air force. However, compared to the results they achieved, this loss is nothing. The 5th Japanese Flying Division dispatched 186 fighter jets of various types this time. However, few of them fled back in the end, only 7 fighter jets. The rest of the fighter jets were all destroyed.
Although the Japanese 5th Flight Division had more than a dozen fighter jets under maintenance, even if all of them were included, there were only more than twenty fighter jets. It can be said that they had lost air supremacy on the Indochina Peninsula during this battle.
The only aviation army under the Japanese Southern Army was the Third Air Force. The entire Third Air Force had more than 500 fighter jets of various types. However, on the Myanmar battlefield, they had already lost more than 200. This was a loss for the Third Air Force. You should know that another flight division of the Third Air Force, the 9th Flying Division, was deployed in the Pacific Ocean. On the Indochina Peninsula, there was only the 5th Flying Division. However, in this battle, they all lost.
"Congratulations to you, Qin, your troops for a great victory. If every unit fighting against the Japanese and Chinese troops can achieve great victory like your troops, I think we will be able to defeat Japanese and Chinese people easily." Lieutenant Colonel Steven rushed to the airport and congratulated his relatives.
"Steven, although we won, this battle was very difficult. We lost eight planes, and five pilots were shot and killed by Japanese people after parachuting. Even the airport was bombed, and the air defense suffered heavy losses." In front of the Americans, Qin Shou always looked like he was complaining.
"Ok, Qin, you need to say nothing, I know what you mean. I have already reported to General Stilwell that you have won. General Stilwell was also very satisfied with the victory achieved by the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Air Force. He asked me to tell you that he had applied for more fighter jets from the US Army General Staff. I believe that a large number of fighter jets will be handed over to you soon." Lieutenant Colonel Steven knew what Qin Shou meant very well.
"Okay, that's really great. It seems that we have to build a second airport and train more pilots." Qin Shou couldn't help laughing.
The more aid the Americans provide, the stronger the strength of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army will be. It will be easier for them to defeat Japan in Southeast Asia.
"By the way, Qin. Although the aviation team performed very well, the most important thing is the upcoming decisive battle between you and the Myanmar Front. This decisive battle is related to the ownership of Myanmar." Lieutenant Colonel Steven reminded.
"Don't worry, Steven's air force will launch an attack on the Japanese airport tomorrow and completely destroy their airport. At that time, Myanmar's air supremacy will belong to us. With the support of the air force, it will be easier for our army to defeat the Japanese Burmese Front. I promise you that it won't be long before we can win a brilliant victory!"
The victory of the airline team made Qin Shou more confident in the next battle.
Lieutenant Colonel Steven nodded and said nothing more. He was also very confident in Qin Shou and the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Sometimes, he even doubted whether this guy would be God's illegitimate son, otherwise, how could he have such good luck?
In northern Thailand, Chiang Mai, the garrison of the 3rd Japanese Air Force 3rd Air Force 3rd Flight Division.
Seven Type 1 fighter jets landed on the airport in turn. The plane's bodies were full of bullet holes. It can be seen how powerful these fighter jets encountered. It is a miracle that they can escape under such an attack.
However, the entire airport seemed to be filled with a solemn atmosphere, and even the ground staff were equally serious.
Major Infuri Miyako climbed out of his landline.
He took a deep breath and calmed down his mood. He knew that after suffering such heavy losses, his fate might have been decided.
"Your Majesty, the division commander wants to see you!"
As soon as Major Gong Yingfu got off the plane, a team of military police came up.
"I understand." A bitter smile flashed across Major Murata Infuka's face.
Soon, Grandpa Miyako Eibo arrived at the office of the division commander Lieutenant General Obata Hidera. In addition to Lieutenant General Obata Hidera, Chief of Staff Colonel Mizuka Castle was also there.
However, their faces were as gloomy as if they could drip out of water.
Before Major Miyako Infuka returned, they had already received the report. In this battle, the 5th Japanese Flying Division was defeated. There were only 7 of the 186 fighter jets dispatched. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the 5th Flying Division.
"Miyasu, why is this happening? Why is there such a huge loss?" Lieutenant General Hideyoshi Obata's voice was a little low. It can be heard that he was suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Your Excellency the division commander, you deserve to die for ten thousand times! Please allow you to let You let You give up your saplings and retain the last dignity of a warrior." Master Gong Yu Yingfu knew that he would definitely die this time, so he took the initiative to ask for death.
"I allow you to septile. Not only do you want to septile, I can't escape. I want to know why we were defeated so miserably?" Lieutenant General Hidera Ota's face flashed with bitterness.
The entire 5th Flying Division has been dead in name only, and the division commander must also bear responsibility for this.
