Section 10 The Great Retreat (6)

The Chinese Air Force generals were extremely depressed over the past month, and fierce battles were fought on the ground. They were anxious in their eyes. They planned to take risks several times, but they were firmly rejected by Qian Dajun and Zhou Zhirou. The air force has more than 300 aircraft. In this month, 70 P40s were bought from the United States. Another 100 were added to the Soviet-Russian aid. The number of volunteer teams in China aided to more than 1,800, including radar operators and air force commanders. This part is said to be aid, but it is actually for learning. Both sides are tacit about this.

What surprised China was that after flying the P40 and BF109, the Soviet pilot believed that the performance of both aircraft exceeded that of the latest Soviet fighter jets I- and MiG-1, and the 7 also surpassed that of the latest Soviet bomber. The Soviet military advisory group asked to obtain these three aircraft, which made Chiang Kai-shek embarrassed, so he handed the issue to Li Zhilong again.

According to Zhuang Jihua's guidance, Li Zhilong asked the Soviet Union to provide T34 tank and rocket launcher technology, so that China can provide two BF109 aircraft and its engine technology. This engine technology was obtained at a high price, and bribing Gorene alone would be as high as one million US dollars.

China's request surprised the Soviet Union. The T34 tank has not been finalized yet, and the rocket launcher has just been successfully tested and has not been fully finalized. Both weapons are still in the confidential stage. The Soviet Union does not know how China knows it. For this reason, the KGB conducted a large-scale investigation at home, but there was no result. Finally, it randomly arrested a group of technicians to hand in the office.

Finally, after bargaining, the Soviet Union agreed to hand over these two weapons to China, but asked China to provide two 7 bombers. The reality of the Soviet Union lacking strategic bombers made them finally agree to the exchange.

Now I finally opened my eyes, and the lead-like clouds finally dispersed, and the sunset shone from the Huanghuai Plain to the Jiangnan land. The weather that the Air Force had always dreamed of finally appeared.

Wang Shuming personally led the group of aircraft into the sky. Gao Zhihang led six P40 brigades to be responsible for the outer cover, Xue Muhua led the BF109 brigade to be responsible for the assault, Japanese and Porein led the I-brigade to be responsible for the ground assault, and the most core areas are two brigades-2 rapid bombers led by Kurishenko and Kozlov, thirty 7 heavy bombers led by Xu Huansheng, as well as some other miscellaneous bombers.

"Eagle, eagle, I am the eagle's nest, I am the eagle's nest, forty-six, orientation, height; thirty-two, orientation, height; sparrow fifty-eight, orientation..."

Wang Shuming looked calm. It seemed that the Japanese were also waiting for this time. Three. The Japanese planes were coming to Jinan and Qingdao in the east, Nanjing and Shanghai, and Peking, Tianjin and Shijiazhuang in Shijiazhuang. The number was not more than that of us.

"Vulture, vulture,..." Before Wang Shuming finished speaking, the sound of the ground command center came from his headphones.

"Observe the eagle, pay attention to the eagle, a new batch of sparrows, sixty-four, orientation, height; sparrows forty-eight, orientation, height."

The Japanese army increased its troops, and the number increased by 108 at once. It seemed that the Japanese had no rest this month, and they transferred a large number of planes from the country.

It seems that the Japanese still used the old tactics, using quantity to replace tactics and technology. Wang Shuming immediately ordered Xue Muhua's brigade to face Japanese planes coming from Qingdao, Jinan, Li Guidan led three brigades to face Japanese planes coming from Nanjing, Shanghai, Gao Zhihang led three brigades to face 58 Japanese planes coming from Peking, Tianjin, and Su-Zhiyi-second batch of Japanese planes led by Japanese Galev and Porein. He himself led the remaining two brigades to continue to cover the bombers to fly to the junction of Henan and Shandong.

Chinese fighter jets climbed one after another and flew towards their respective targets. Gao Zhihang led his three brigades to climb up and flew steadily northward. The ground's informed enemy situation could not be heard in his ears: "Height, orientation, distance."

He searched for Japanese planes in the sky, and suddenly the pilot report came: "Sparrows were found below the left front."

Gao Zhihang stretched his head toward the left front and bottom. Sure enough, dozens of black dots were floating in the air. These black dots were divided into two layers, with only a dozen aircraft on top, and a large number of aircraft were below. Gao Zhihang understood that once the Japanese army was attacked, they sacrificed more than a dozen aircraft from the upper level, so that the main force in the lower level had time to reflect.

"Butchman, I'll attack from the left. You go around to the right and wait until I break the Japanese formation, and you'll attack again."

"The butcher understands."

Soon twenty-four planes left the formation and circled above the right side of the Japanese plane. When they flew to their position, Gao Zhihang pressed the head of the machine and rushed towards the Japanese plane formation with a fierce roar. The first wave of six planes sprayed out a series of violent rain of bullets. The two Japanese planes immediately emitted black smoke and fell to the ground with the black smoke. After the shooting, six planes pulled the head of the machine and flew upwards. The six wingmen following behind opened fire and then immediately lifted up regardless of whether they were shooting Chinese and Japanese planes.

The Japanese aircraft group was assaulted and there was no panic. The entire aircraft group was pulled up, but just as they were pulling up, the Chinese aircraft group that detoured the right wing dived again, and the first wave of shooting shot down five Japanese aircraft. This time, the Japanese aircraft group was completely disrupted, and the Japanese aircraft scattered everywhere, in a formation that could not be kept in a neat formation.

In this situation, the Chinese planes no longer lifted up, but quickly rotated back to the back of the Japanese army, launched another attack, and shot down six Japanese planes in the second wave of attacks.

Although they paid more than a dozen aircraft at the beginning, the Japanese aircraft relied on the large amount of people to bear the heavy capital. After enduring two attacks, they gradually stabilized their positions and began to launch a counterattack on Gao Zhihang. At this time, the guidance on the ground was useless, and it was entirely based on the pilot's own combat skills.

The two sides were entangled, from high to low, chasing and shooting each other. The planes emitting thick smoke either fell or exploded in the air, but the remaining planes were still entangled.

The second wave of Japanese planes was intercepted by Japanese Garev and Porenin before they arrived at the battlefield. They also dived from high altitude and harvested the first batch of spoils, and they fought together.

The successful defense of the outside allowed Wang Shuming to fly over the target with two brigades of fighter jets to protect the bomber. On the ground, the column led by the Sun Flag was bravely advancing towards Cao County and Shan County.

"Leave it to you." After Wang Shuming finished speaking, he pulled up the head of the machine, and the two brigades of p40 climbed to a high altitude.

"Don't worry." Xu Huansheng's voice sounded in his ears. Wang Shuming turned his head and Xu Huansheng's plane began to lower the altitude. Then two groups dropped bombs on the ground, and the bombs rose black smoke on the ground, and flames burst out from time to time. It was obvious that the Japanese ammunition was detonated.

Wang Shuming looked at the ground. Although the bombing of 7 looked fierce, it was a strategic bomber after all. The attack effect on those active targets was still relatively poor, far less than that of attack aircraft and dive bombers. It seems that it should be recommended to introduce attack aircraft and dive bombers regardless of attack aircraft. Wang Shuming was thinking, and suddenly a burst of rush shouts came from his headphones:

"At the eagle, be careful with the eagle, the eighteen sparrows rushed over, the eighteen sparrows rushed over."

Wang Shuming quickly searched, and indeed a group of small black dots were flying quickly in the southeast. He immediately pulled the head of the machine and rotated to the left, facing the group of black dots.

32:14, the great victory, the newspapers on the streets of Wuhan were once again filled with the air force's good news, slightly reducing the frustration caused by the evacuation of Xuzhou. The enthusiasm of Wuhan citizens was once again aroused, but a report reposted from the Times aroused the anger of the whole of China.

“…, this city is crying, this city is bleeding, this city is in purgatory.

The Japanese army at this moment is not an army, but a group of bloodthirsty bandits, a group of wild beasts that are addicted to burning, killing, looting and looting.

They broke into all the houses, drove out the unarmed residents, gathered together to massacre, and there were gunfires, grenade explosions, and the hideous laughter of robbers everywhere.

They enjoyed killing people, from the white-haired old man to the hungry baby, they could not escape the vicious hands of the Japanese soldiers.

They thought they were happy that no one from the sixty-year-old woman to the five or six-year-old girl had escaped them.

There are corpses everywhere inside and outside Xuzhou City. I found more than 300 corpses in the famous Guiyuan Temple in Xuzhou. Xuzhou Catholic Church participated in burying the corpses. Within just two days, they buried more than 5,000 corpses. None of these corpses were soldiers. According to their estimates, there were more than 60,000 residents killed in the whole city... "

After Charles' angry condemnation came to the newspaper, the world was shocked. Countries around the world condemned the Japanese atrocities. The Chinese people were in high spirits. Chiang Kai-shek personally presided over the ceremony of the dead compatriots in Xuzhou in Wuhan. Chongqing, Guangzhou and Changsha held public memorial memorials and memorial activities. The Chinese government reiterated the pursuit of war crimes and announced the list of the first batch of war criminals. The Fifth Division, the 28th Division and the 39th Division that caused the Xuzhou bloody case were all on the list.

"They are no longer soldiers, but criminals. I order all troops not to accept their surrender until they are wiped out! The blood debt must be paid with blood!"

Despite the persuasion of Xu Zuyi and Gong Chu who had rushed back from the front line, Zhuang Jihua issued an order in Shangqiu that the Fifth Division, the 28th Division, and the 39th Division were not allowed to surrender. Zhuang Jihua was bleeding in his heart. He deeply hated that he was too careless. Unexpectedly, he tried his best to resolve the Nanjing Massacre, but the Japanese actually created the Xuzhou Massacre, and more than 60,000 compatriots died in the Japanese Massacre.

"These bastards! Executioners!" Zhuang Jihua's angry roar echoed in the command center: "What do you want to tell them about benevolence and righteousness, and what kind of morality, I tell you Xu Yanmou, to the Japanese, you must repay blood for blood and exchange your life for life! Today they killed 60,000 of us, tomorrow I will kill 120,000, and 600,000 Japanese soldiers to pay their lives! Go to the hell of your bullshit benevolence and righteousness!"

Xu Zuyi's face turned red and white. He didn't expect that he just tactfully persuaded Zhuang Jihua not to issue that order. This would make the Japanese army resist tenaciously in despair, increase our casualties, and damage our reputation as a country of etiquette. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Jihua became furious all of a sudden and almost pointed at him, Xu Zuyi's nose and cursed.

Of course, neither he nor Gong Chu paid attention to Zhuang Jihua's words that demanded 126,000 Japanese troops to pay their orders. But a few years later, Zhuang Jihua created a "massacre" incident in the Japanese prisoner-of-war camp, killing more than 50,000 Japanese officers and more than 40,000 Japanese veterans.
