Devil's Army

Captain Yang of the Third Air Squadron believed that there were only more than 30 Japanese planes attacking the southern Jiangxi area. Together with the fighter planes that did not take off from Jiujiang Airport, the number of Japanese fighter planes should be around . The fighter planes at Sanzao Island Airport could resolve the battle.

Captain Du was worried that the Japanese still had fighter jets at Jiujiang Airport to carry out other missions.

Moreover, the Japanese army’s Nanchang Sanjiadian Airport may come to support.

In this naval battle of Haikou, the First Army and the Air Force suffered heavy casualties.

To be on the safe side, he decided to leave the air force on Weizhou Island behind, and the planes from Sanzao Island Airport and Shantou Airport would take off at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning to carry out an air strike on Jiujiang Airport.

The next morning, nearly 100 bombers and fighter planes from the Third Squadron of the First Air Force took off from Sanzao Island Airport and Shantou Airport and headed for Jiujiang Airport.

More than half an hour later, the First Army Air Force arrived over Jiujiang Airport.

To Captain Du's disappointment, most of the Japanese planes at Jiujiang Airport were on missions.

There were only a dozen fighter jets, bombers and trainer planes left on the apron of Jiujiang Airport.

As the air raid alarm sounded, more than ten planes took off one after another from the airport.

Captain Du's fighter group quickly shot down all the Japanese fighters, bombers and trainer planes that had hurriedly taken off, and then launched an air strike on the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery unit at Jiujiang Airport.

The Japanese anti-aircraft artillery units' anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were all erected and fired fiercely into the air.

The captain led the pilots of the First Army to dive, strafe and drop bombs on the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery positions at Jiujiang Airport from all directions.

At that time, the Jiujiang Shilipu Airport was not very large and could only accommodate about 50 aircraft. The firepower network of the air defense force was not very strong.

Captain Du led the pilots of the Third Aviation Squadron and continuously rushed into the not very dense anti-aircraft fire network, dropping bombs and strafing the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery positions and anti-aircraft machine gun positions.

The limited anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns at Jiujiang Shilipu Airport were repeatedly hit and destroyed.

After Captain Du and his men destroyed the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery positions, they launched a fierce bombing on the runway, apron, warehouse, and command building of Jiujiang Shilipu Airport.

The airport was destroyed, which was a serious crime. The guards at the airport raised their guns in despair and shot at the devil's pointed planes in the air.

This just happened to indicate the target to the pilots of the First Army.

The pilots of the 3rd Air Squadron flew at a low altitude and fiercely strafed and bombed the Japanese defense forces that were firing at them.

The broken limbs and arms of Japanese defense force soldiers were flying everywhere at Jiujiang Shilipu Airport, mixed with the wreckage of the aircraft.

Just as Captain Du was preparing to launch an air strike on Jiujiang Shilipu Airport, Captain Yang assigned a fighter and bomber group to launch an air strike on Jiujiang Ertaokou Airport.

When Captain Yang and his team arrived at Jiujiang Ertaokou Airport, they found that the airport was smaller and could only accommodate more than ten to twenty aircraft.

At that time, there were only four old Zero fighters at Ertaokou Airport.

Captain Yang and his men shot down all four Japanese fighter planes without any casualties.

Then they began to bomb the runway, apron and control tower of Ertaokou Airport.

The Japanese army had no anti-aircraft artillery at the Jiujiang Ertaokou Airport. Captain Yang and his men easily destroyed the Ertaokou Airport and then returned home easily.

Soon, Captain Du, who had completed the mission, returned to Sanzao Island Airport with another air force.

Since Captain Du dispatched two airfields this time, with nearly 100 fighters and bombers, the Japanese planes at the Nanchang Sanjiadian Airport never came to reinforce.
