Bright Sword: I am the old squad leader of the Northwest Shanxi Iron Triangle

Chapter 153 The battlefield is one-way transparent.

That night, many new pilots were so excited that they could not sleep.

For them, they had the opportunity to fly a plane to fight the Japanese early the next morning.

This is what they have always dreamed of.

Time passed by minute by minute.

At five o'clock the next day, an emergency wakeup call sounded and all the pilots quickly jumped out of bed.

The sky was pitch black at this time.

In winter, daybreak comes much later than usual.

The dawn in Taiyuan direction comes later than usual.

It will probably be around 6:30 at least before the sky becomes bright again.

After a simple wash, everyone had breakfast.

Ling Yunzhi was already waiting for everyone in the restaurant.

"Don't be nervous, brothers. Fighting the Japanese is just like training."

"How do you train normally? Just perform as you would on the battlefield, and don't be afraid. The Japanese planes are totally vulnerable, and most of them are bombers this time."

Almost everyone had flown the Japanese bombers, and the performance of these bombers was not very good.

Everyone knew that these bombers flew quite slowly when fully loaded with ammunition.

These bombers are sitting ducks for fighter planes.

"Sir, what should we do if we fail to shoot down all the Japanese planes during our attack?" asked a new pilot.

"It doesn't matter. Our airport has already made defensive preparations. If the Japanese planes dare to come over, they will face the anti-aircraft artillery of our three lines of defense."

The anti-aircraft guns of these three lines of defense are extremely powerful, and most of them are four-barrel anti-aircraft guns.

Using these four-barrel anti-aircraft guns against the Japanese bombers is not very effective.

Just like the Japanese bombers, in order to achieve the bombing effect at dawn, they had to fly the planes lower.

This would provide good shooting opportunities for their anti-aircraft firepower.

After hearing this, everyone became more confident. They had no worries at all.

"Gao Qihang, Li Changkong, finish your meal quickly and take the plane to ambush in the direction of Pingdingshan."

All the ground staff on the airport runway were busy.

These ground crew members were refueling the planes and were bombed by the planes.

"Brothers, hurry up, the pilot will be here soon."

"This time, the Japanese fell into our trap. We must make sure they learn a lesson."

"These little devils are courting death, thinking they can win by sending some planes over. That's impossible."

All the ground crew were very skilled.

Ten minutes later, all the planes on the airport apron were ready to take off.

The ground crew quickly pushed the plane onto the runway.

A dozen Russian Yak fighter planes were at the front of the team.

There was a rumbling sound of the engine, and the plane's engine started and the propeller was spinning rapidly.

All the pilots quickly boarded the plane.

The airport ground crew quickly evacuated the runway.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Several red flares went off into the air.

The planes rushed to the end of the runway at full speed.

Planes quickly took off.

After these planes took off into the sky, they flew straight towards Pingdingshan.

…………

In order to gain a time advantage, the Japanese took off half an hour in advance. The Japanese Type 96 fighter planes had no radar, so they could only fly according to the route drawn on time and with the help of a compass.

After the Japanese plane took off, it flew quickly towards Taiyuan Airport.

"Warriors of the empire, we must defeat the Eighth Route Army this time and catch them off guard." The first plane quickly sent a signal with lights.

"I guess these Chinese haven't gotten up yet."

"I really want to see how these Chinese behave when they are bombed by our planes."

The planes roared, and hundreds of bombers formed into battle formation and flew quickly towards Taiyuan Airport.

For this bombing mission, Sato Sakuragi sent all the bombers towards the airport.

Sato Sakuragi believed that if they flew ahead of time they would be able to catch the Eighth Route Army off guard.

However, they had never expected that their plane had just taken off and the radar on the Yak fighter had already discovered them.

The Japanese technicians were talking and laughing. For them, this was a battle that they must win.

"Attention all aircraft, attention all aircraft, quickly check the bombing and aiming equipment on the aircraft." The bomber flying in the front quickly sent out light signals.

"Sir, our bombing equipment and aiming equipment have been checked several times. When we bomb the Tubalu airport, it will be foolproof."

"Don't worry, sir. None of the Tubalu will be able to escape this time. They will surely die."

"Sir, our bombing and aiming equipment are intact and will not affect the subsequent bombing."

Soon, each bomber sent a light signal.

The Japanese planes flew quickly through the clouds. Half an hour later, a hint of dawn appeared in the eastern sky.

"All planes follow my orders and arrive at Taiyuan Airport in 20 minutes."

"All aircraft descend to 1000 altitude."

Following the order, the planes flying in the front quickly descended and adjusted their flight altitude to 1000 meters above sea level.

The plane behind it quickly descended in altitude.

…………

Gao Qihang, Li Changkong and their crew's planes had already been circling at a large angle nearby.

The planes took off from Taiyuan Airport and reached an altitude of 8000.

These planes are high above the ground and can easily scan the Japanese bombers.

Soon, the Japanese bombing secrets on everyone's radar filled the entire screen.

"How many planes did these little devils send? Why are they so densely packed everywhere?"

"Captain Gao, our brigade commander said that the Japanese may send at least 500 bombers."

"We're rich, we're rich. Five hundred bombers. We're going to make sure these bastards have nothing this time."

"The first attack team will follow me."

"Second, the attack squadron will follow Li Changkong and outflank from the right side."

"Listen to me, brothers. We must not let any of the Japanese planes go. Now that the Japanese planes are coming, we must shoot them all down."

After Gao Qihang had made the arrangements, these hundreds of fighter planes quickly rushed towards the Japanese bombers from three directions.

The battlefield became one-way transparent.

The Eighth Route Army's planes could easily see the Japanese planes, while the Japanese planes were completely unaware of the impending threat.

The plane roared and dived rapidly from the air.
