The third part of the bloody war, Chapter 10, the storm, the third section of the war drum (IV)

"Boss, it's okay, the Japanese plane has been hiding." Zhou Zhikai grinned and the plane entered the formation steadily.

"Stop talking nonsense, suddenly a bold person rushed in. Meng Crooker must fight you to the death." Although Li Guidan's tone was fierce, he actually didn't agree. This time, he led the Second Brigade to protect twelve B17s and twelve A20 attack aircrafts in the bombing of Tianjin. These bombers were commanded by Meng Shaowen, Colonel of the Bomber Command.

Meng Shaowen is an overseas Chinese in your country and the first of the Southwest Development Team. He has only a few remaining pilots. He was injured in the war and limped when he was cured.

"Head, the devil is now a turtle shrank, and he has long hidden his head in Aunt Amaterasu's crotch." Another pilot's words came from the headphones, which were said in Japanese, and after that, he laughed with giving up.

The Air Force is now proud. A few months ago, he could see the Japanese take off to fight, but now it is completely gone. This makes Li Guidan and other militants very dissatisfied. They always use Ming language and even curse in Japanese in the sky. They know that the Japanese can receive these communications, so they are very presumptuous, fearing that they will not understand. Even those who cannot speak Japanese have learned a few swearing Japanese words.

"Stop talking nonsense, be careful!" After Li Guidan finished speaking, he pulled his headphones, loosened his head cover, and opened the window cover. A violent cold wind blew over him. Li Guidan breathed in the cold air and looked at the ground. There were clouds floating below. The weather today was not very good, the visibility was not high, and the situation on the ground was not clear.

At this time, the pilots of the brigade also opened the window cover and greeted each other. A smell of smoke from the wind came from below. Li Guidan sighed softly. Meng Crook was very happy now. His eyes were sweeping around, but unfortunately there was only smoke from the explosion of high-speed Japanese artillery shells.

The Japanese army's air defense force was not strong, which made Li Guidan very puzzled. After the Japanese army lost the sky, it was necessary to strengthen air defense. High guns and high machine guns were inevitable. However, according to his observation, the Japanese army's air defense force was always very weak, and there was no change from six years ago.

After hovering in the sky for more than twenty minutes, the bombers began to return one after another. In the sky formation, the escort formation led by Li Guidan also retracted. The bombers swung their wings and flew southward, but Li Guidan's formation was still hovering in the air. He was very relieved to let the bombers leave. The ground radar closely monitored the sky in North China, and the Japanese plane was discovered as soon as it was lifted off.

"It's our turn." Li Guidan shouted, then pressed the cào lever, the plane dived downward, whistling to the ground, and the machine gun at the nose fired a series of artillery shells at the Japanese army running and dodging.

After flying for a distance, he pulled up the nose and climbed into the sky, shook the wings of the machine. The wingman behind him followed, and the two circled high in the sky to watch the performance of the guys.

Dozens of aircraft dive in turn, but the Japanese army had only a dozen anti-aircraft guns and weak counterattacks. When Japanese planes bombed Chongqing, there were thousands of high-speed guns and high-speed machine guns on the ground in Chongqing.

"It's boring, the devils can bear this breath." The wingman cursed in the headphones. The Chinese Air Force has never been afraid of the Japanese army. From the beginning of the war to the present, the Japanese have been at a disadvantage for most of the time. Only the Zero aircraft has just appeared and have an advantage. When the Mustang appears, the Japanese aircraft have never gained an advantage again.

"I don't have any courage anymore." Another voice came from the headphones, lazily: "Damn it, it's boring, captain, should I apply for transfer and go to the bomber unit?"

"I have no objection. The mangrove, you have the courage. Go and find Commander Gao yourself." Li Guidan replied coldly. This mangrove was a Hong Konger who joined the army two years ago. His real name was Zeng. He loved to eat dogs. He would light incense every time he treated him. The brothers simply gave him a nickname. After the Japanese chose to avoid the war, they kept the fighter pilots full of their stomachs and came back every time they took off for a round of inspections. The brothers were very dissatisfied with this kind of life. A few of them reported and asked to be transferred to the bomber troops. As a result, Gao Zhihang pointed at his nose and scolded him. Later, he simply ordered that anyone who wanted to make such a report would be grounded. This incident made Xue Muhua very unhappy in front of Li Guidan.

Sure enough, the mangy dog ​​never spoke again. After a while, the vented men began to gather around Li Guidan, shaking south to chase the bomber formation.

The plane landed several times in Lanfeng. Li Guidan jumped off the plane. The mechanic had already been waiting beside him. Li Guidan pulled off his gloves, took off his flying helmet and clamped it under his ribs, and strode towards the dormitory in the distance.

At the entrance of the dormitory, Li Guidan saw two jeeps. Gao Zhihang's driver was sitting in the car and chatting with the driver in another car. When he saw Li Guidan coming, Gao Zhihang's driver made a gesture to him and signaled Gao Zhihang to wait for him. Li Guidan glanced at the driver who was chatting with him. The driver was an American and had never seen him before.

He murmured in his heart what the consultant was doing, but after he walked into the office, he found that the person who was waiting for him with Gao Zhihang was not the consultant.

"Commander, it's cold, what's the task? I'll send you a visit to the humble house." Li Guidan saluted Gao Zhihang and muttered.

Gao Zhihang didn't seem to hear it, and stood up and said to Li Guidan, "Let me introduce you to you. This is General Li Mei. General Li Mei. This is the Li Guidan I mentioned to you, one of our best pilots."

"Oh, I've heard of it a long time ago. I heard that you are in Myanmar."

Gao Zhihang glared at Li Guidan after hearing this. Li Mei had been to China for a while, but she had never been to the North China War Zone. First, she was in Myanmar and fought with Chennard. Later, she went to Chongqing and recovered Shandong. Li Mei suggested to Washington to use Shandong as a base to bomb the Japanese mainland. Washington accepted his suggestion and decided to form the 402nd and 403rd air fleets. These two air fleets were equipped with 120 super air fortresses. Li Mei asked the domestic aircraft while coordinating the construction of the airport. It was not until recently that time had come.

"Oh, there is no battle in Myanmar. The Japanese have transferred all the planes to the Pacific and China," Li Mei did not hear the bones in Li Guidan's words, and returned the greeting with a smile. The Americans' military salute was very casual, and their hands were casually on the brim of the hat. This would be severely scolded by the generals in the Central Team, especially the army. However, Li Guidan liked this kind of xing method.

"Col. Is it going well today?" As soon as she sat down, Li Mei asked about the battle situation today.

"Of course it goes smoothly, how could it not go smoothly? There is not even a ghost in the sky except for clouds." Li Guidan leaned on the chair, looking at Li Mei with some boredom and expectation: "The xiǎo devils in Nanyang have been transferred to China, and the domestic devils are all huddled in the rat dong. Commander, the result of the escort formation battle today is zero."

Li Mei and Gao Zhihang changed their eyes, and the result was obviously as expected. Li Mei stood up, took out a map from the lieutenant's bag next to her and spread it on the table. Seeing this map, Li Guidan was excited and stood up immediately, leaned down and stared at the dotted lines on the map. These dotted lines started from Henan and all the way to Kyushu, Japan.

"I inspected airports in Henan and Shandong. Most of these airports cannot take off and land B29, but can take off and land B17. Among them, there are two airports in Henan that can take off and land B29. The range of the p51 combat is 1,500 kilometers, which can protect bombers to Jiuzhou."

Before Li Mei finished speaking, Li Guidan screamed strangely: "Okay, okay, Jiuzhou, very good, very good, you are so wise."

As he said that, Li Guidan was about to hug Li Mei. Gao Zhihang snorted coldly. Li Guidan smiled embarrassedly and stopped her body. However, Li Mei smiled. The state shown by Li Guidan made his morale for the Chinese Air Force increase a little. Whether in Europe or Myanmar, the greatest desire of American pilots is not to go to heaven to kill the enemy, but to go to a bar to find a meeting, but the Chinese pilots he came into contact with were not like this, and always longed for heaven.

Li Mei then took out a map, but this time it was a map of China. There were several places on the map, marked with Japanese airports. Li Mei pointed to several airports and said, "Col. Li, look, this is the distribution map of the Japanese airports in China. If we bomb Japan, the biggest danger is not from the enemy planes in Japan, but from the Japanese air force in Northeast China and North Korea. They will attack us on our way back. At that time, our fuel bombs were almost exhausted and we were unable to fight with them. So before bombing Japan, we must clean the flies."

Li Guidan opened his mouth and said that there was no problem, but Gao Zhihang said: "Our problem is that the Japanese army's airport distribution map in the Northeast is missing, and North Korea is even more blank. General Li Mei, this is the most difficult part of us."

"I don't think this is difficult. We first clean up the flies in Jiangnan. This operation is done by the Air Force of the Jiangnan War Theater," Li Mei said. "The most important thing is Northeast and North Korea. We don't know much about the flies, but we can lead you out."

Speaking of this, Li Mei pointed her fingers at Tanggu and Qinhuangdao twice: "These two ports are very important to the Japanese army," and then clicked on the railway in eastern Hebei: "This railway is the artery of the Japanese army."

"Gentlemen, in the battles some time ago, we ignored the railways and ports. Now is the time for us to fix this mistake. As long as we attack these three points, the Japanese plane will definitely come."

Li Guidan now understood why Gao Zhihang's face was so bad. Li Mei's plan must be to carry out large-scale bombing, but the Air Force had long had unwritten regulations not to bomb the city, because this would bring about a large number of casualties among compatriots.

Gao Zhihang shook his head slightly: "Such bombing must be approved by the War Zone Command."

Li Mei was slightly stunned, then understood and smiled: "We should have a plan first. We can first bomb the railway and other hubs to attract Japanese planes to come out."
