Devil's Army

Captain Du organized the three fighter planes into a group, totaling eleven groups, which rushed into Sanya Airport and Sanya Port Terminal from time to time to prevent Japanese bombers from bombing Sanya Airport and Sanya Port Terminal.

The Japanese bombers had to stop bombing frequently and hide from the attacks of the First Army fighter planes.

Soon, the Japanese pilots discovered that the plane of Captain Du, who was commanding the operation, was surrounding them from all directions.

Captain Du was leading two wingmen to attack the Japanese bombers that were bombing Sanya Airport, and soon discovered the Japanese fighter planes coming from all around. He quickly gave up chasing the Japanese bombers, climbed the flight altitude, and quickly retreated.

The Japanese fighter plane group in front also quickly climbed its altitude and fired fiercely at Captain Du and his men from the front.

Captain Du led two wingmen to quickly turn right at a small angle and escaped the blockade of the Japanese fighter group. However, the fighter group on the right side of the Japanese army also quickly climbed to a higher altitude, blocking Captain Du and his team's retreat.

Captain Du and his two wingmen pressed down the joystick and dived to escape the Japanese interception. However, Captain Du's plane was hit by two bombs in succession, and the right engine also stalled.

Captain Du did not land. Now they were seriously short of fighter jets, and he had to fight despite his injuries.

However, just as Captain Du and his men got rid of the blockade of the Japanese fighter group on the right wing, two more Japanese fighter groups surrounded them from both sides.

Moreover, the Japanese fighter planes surrounded us in two layers, upper and lower.

The Japanese also saw that the Devil Unit's lead plane was damaged and its flying speed was obviously slower than the two wingman planes, so they made up their minds to shoot down Captain Du.

Just when Captain Du and his men were in a critical moment, six Huaxia III fighter planes that were attacking Lingshui County rushed over and fired fiercely at the Japanese fighter group in front of Captain Du.

Captain Du's wingman on his left also quickly crossed over and fired fiercely at the Japanese fighter plane opposite.

The Japanese fighter plane was shot down by the fierce fire from Captain Du's left wingman, but the three Japanese fighter planes next to it also surrounded it and kept firing.

The left wingman was hit by several shots in succession. It locked onto another Japanese fighter in front of it, and the three machine guns on board fired fiercely at it.

The Japanese fighter plane was shot down, but Captain Du's wingman on the left was also hit and exploded in mid-air by several Japanese fighter planes that were besieging him.

Captain Du and his right wingman, under the cover of six fighter planes attacking Lingshui County, broke through the Japanese encirclement.

The pilots of the Fourth Aviation Squadron led by Captain Du used their superb flying skills to fight tenaciously with more than 100 Japanese fighter planes, but their own casualties were not small.

Just as the 4th Air Squadron was struggling to hold on, the Japanese fighter and bomber groups suddenly retreated without warning.

Captain Du and his men finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the runway at Sanya Airport had been destroyed by the Japanese army, and the aircraft of the Fourth Aviation Squadron had no way to land.

Deputy Regiment Commander Hu, along with the soldiers and the surrounding people, urgently cleared the two runways that were less damaged.

At this time, Captain Yin rushed over from Kunming with the fighter planes of the Second and Third Air Squadrons, but there was no Japanese fighter plane or bomber in the sky of Sanya.

It was obvious that the Japanese fighters and bombers had received wind of the news and had retreated in advance.

If Captain Yin and his men attack Guangzhou Tianhe Airport and Sanzao Island Airport, the aircraft's fuel may not be enough to support them to return to Kunming Airport.

Besides, Captain Yin and his men are sending fighter jets this time.

In this air battle, Captain Du's Fourth Air Force lost 12 fighters and damaged 18 fighters. More than two-thirds of the casualties. However, they also shot down and damaged more than 60 Japanese fighters and bombers, severely damaging the Japanese 21st Air Corps.

After the runway and apron were cleared urgently, planes from Captain Du's Fourth Aviation Brigade landed one after another.

Captain Yin also left two Chinese fighter squadrons to garrison Sanya Airport, and the other aircraft returned first.

At this time, Leng Feng had 86 fighter jets and 36 bombers stationed at Kunming Aviation School, Yanglin Airport, and Xiyi School Airport.

The air supremacy in Yunnan has shifted and is now firmly held by the First Army Air Force.

Captain Yin has been promoted to commander-in-chief of the Air Force of the First Anti-Japanese Army, responsible for the security of Yunnan, Chongqing, Hainan Island and surrounding airspace.

Captain Xu was also promoted to deputy commander of the Air Force of the First Anti-Japanese Army, responsible for the airspace security of the old base in Northeast China and the Tangshan base in central China.

In order to support ground operations and gain air superiority, the Japanese army successively deployed new Zero-52 fighters to the Northeast, Central China and Southern battlefields.
