Chapter 145 Wrong Tactics

Because I understand that with the current strength of the Eighth Route Army, it is simply unrealistic to install radio stations or walkie-talkies on all aircraft that can directly talk back to each other.

Therefore, Liu Xiu could only use hand gestures. Of course, sometimes the distance between the planes in the air was too far, and even with hand gestures, he might not be able to see clearly what he was doing.

What's more, it's impossible for teammates to keep their eyes on them all the time, so the use of gestures is obviously not as convenient as a walkie-talkie with voice intercom.

But at this stage, it is already very good to have a fighter jet with flight performance that is not inferior to that of the Little Japanese. How can it be possible to have such high requirements? It is unrealistic!

So every day Liu Xiu took one or two planes to Taiyuan Airport for patrolling.

Of course, during this period, Liu Xiu also encountered the Little Japanese planes that reinforced the Taiyuan Airport. However, it was a pity that these Little Japanese planes were all destroyed by Liu Xiu's high-altitude combat tactics.

Liu Xiu's tactics are also very simple. After encountering these little Japanese fighters head-on, he will not directly shoot them head-on. Instead, he will decisively raise the plane and keep it at a high altitude.

When the enemy plane on the opposite side can no longer climb, it will dive and shoot from high altitude. Such a set of tactics can naturally kill the enemy aircraft without a supercharger easily and comfortably.

After several rounds of this, the Little Devils also lost more than 20 planes, while Liu Xiu's side didn't have any shot down. Of course, one plane accidentally crashed when landing because the runway was not cleared, causing a wooden crash. It doesn't count if the landing gear was broken.

Of course, Liu Xiu had not never used aerial bombs to blow up the kid's airport runway, but the kid's airport runway was made of cement, and the insidious kid actually used ordinary people from the Khan tribe to build and maintain the runway.

The bulletproof vest has two centimeter-thick steel plates inserted into the front and back.

After all, the two-centimetre-thick bulletproof steel plate cannot be penetrated even by the 12.7 mm bullets equipped on the Xiaoguizi-1 fighter.

"Captain, you don't need to lead the team this time! Monk Wei and I will just lead the team! You just have to take a day off!"

Liu Xiu heard Duan Peng's words and saw Wei Dayong's eager expression, and finally nodded and agreed to their request.

The main reason for doing this was that Liu Xiu was hit by a bullet the first time he fought against an enemy plane in the air. If it hadn't been for the three layers of ordinary rifle bulletproof steel plates, Liu Xiu might have been cold.

Therefore, it is natural to choose something with a small area and light weight. After all, if the aircraft is made too heavy, the flexibility will be greatly reduced.

The reason why steel plates are not installed in the aircraft cockpit for protection is mainly due to the increase in weight.

…………

If Liu Xiu ignored it, the people who would be killed the most would only be the people of the Khan tribe.

Then at Liu Xiu's request, Wei Dayong, Duan Peng, and four other pilots flying together this time put on pilot bulletproof vests.

The main reason for this is to prevent the pilot from being shot and to provide the pilot with some protection requirements.

After all, Liu Xiu actually wanted to practice the two of them's ability to lead troops alone.

After sorting out the bulletproof vests of these pilots, Liu Xiu checked to see if they had forgotten to carry their guns.

After all, the area of ​​​​a person's torso on the front and rear sides is only large, and the area of ​​​​the entire cab equipped with bulletproof steel plates is useful.

Yes, pilots who fly will carry a pistol before flying. There is no way who can make it difficult to carry rifles and machine guns!

The main purpose of modern pistols is to prevent pilots from having no protection at all if a plane malfunction occurs or they accidentally parachute.

Therefore, based on the experience he saw on the Internet before traveling, Liu Xiu decided on some things that pilots must carry before flying. The first is the parachute. Of course, you don’t need to carry it when flying with a gyrocopter.

The second is a pistol, the third is a dagger and compass, and two or three days of food.

After Liu Xiu watched the six planes flying into the sky one after another, he didn't know why he felt worried, so Liu Xiu had already decided in his heart that if they didn't come back within an hour, Liu Xiu would immediately lead a team to check.

After all, the flight time to Taiyuan Airport is only more than 20 minutes, which is enough for a round trip of 50 minutes.

If you don't come back after an hour, something must be wrong.

However, as expected, there was an accident, because just half an hour ago, when the flight team led by Duan Peng and Wei Dayong went to Taiyuan Airport for reconnaissance, they happened to run into the fighter plane of the Japs who came to support them.

But this time, the ones coming this time were not the ordinary Type 1 fighters in the past, but Type 2 fighters equipped with turbochargers, whose horsepower could reach 1,500 horsepower, that is, the Zhongkui fighter. And their number has reached twelve, which is twice the number of Duan Peng's fighters.

But it's a pity that it's a pity here. Although Liu Xiu and Wei Dayong mentioned that some models of the Little Devil's fighter planes are equipped with turbochargers, which can not be affected by high altitudes.

But Liu Xiu just casually asked whether he had shown the photos to Wei Dayong and Duan Peng.

Therefore, after Wei Dayong and Duan Peng saw the enemy plane of the Little Japanese, they naturally pulled up the plane as before and compared the altitude with the Little Japanese's plane, and then looked for opportunities to dive to deal with it when the Little Japanese's plane was about to die. .

It's a pity that this trick didn't work in front of Zhong Kui's fighter plane.

With a horsepower of 1,500 horsepower and a weight of a little over two tons, the Little Devil's Zhongkui aircraft is even more powerful than the American Mustang fighter in terms of thrust-to-weight ratio.

After all, they both have 1,500 horsepower. The Mustang fighter weighs a full 3.8 tons, while the Zhongkui fighter only weighs more than two tons.

This naturally caused the Zhongkui fighter's climb rate to be very fast.

Soon the climbing planes entered the shooting range and were shot down one by one by the Japs' planes.

Even though Duan Peng and Wei Dayong tried their best to avoid it, they still did not have the fate of being shot down.

Duan Peng and the others were doomed to fail from the beginning after they used the high-altitude weakness tactic.

Fortunately, although the wooden fighter plane was shattered, the six pilots, including Duan Peng and Wei Dayong, were not seriously injured.

Because the two-centimeter-thick bulletproof steel plate blocked them from several rounds of 12.7 mm caliber bullets.

Of course, it's not that there was no gain at all. At least Monk Wei encountered the Little Devil's Zhong Kui fighter during the free fall.

When Monk Wei saw such an opportunity, he naturally took out his gun and shot without hesitation.

At close range, the cockpit glass of the Little Japanese plane shattered, and the pilot died on the spot.

In this way, Monk Wei and Duan Peng at least achieved a battle loss ratio of six to one, rather than a battle loss ratio of six to zero.
