Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 476

Three days later, Haikou occupied the airport.

At noon, a scorching sun hangs high in the sky.

At this time when it should be a summer break, the Dayingshan Airport, once known as the Window of Qiongya, is bustling with people and an extremely busy scene.

“Kawaguchi-kun, quickly lead your team to drive away the nearby seabirds. You must not let them interfere with the flight plan of the supporting troops.”

“Team Miki, your task is to prepare fuel, ammunition and spare parts. Although we don't know the specific arrangements of Commander Sunagawa, our ground support department must be fully prepared.”

“At this critical moment, no one is allowed to slip. Everyone, take action immediately!”

In order to welcome the reinforcements coming from afar, all ground handling teams at Dayingshan Airport were mobilized.

These Japanese soldiers have a clear division of labor and perform their own duties. They repeatedly check themselves in front of the iron hangars, obviously looking like they are ready to go into battle at any time.

During the long wait, a relatively young Japanese soldier showed longing and kept asking the leader beside him for detailed information about the supporting troops.

“Captain Takeuchi, our Commander Sunagawa's backstage is really tough. There are 37 fighter jets, all of which are the latest Zero Fighter Type 21. How could an ordinary lieutenant general have such a large lineup?”

"By the way, do you know the specific numbers of the friendly troops? Which major is their commander?"

“I heard that this unit is the ace of the naval aviation. It has shot down countless British and American fighter jets in the Pacific battlefield, and each of them is the best among them.”

Qiongya is extremely important to the Japanese army. The Japanese not only regarded it as an important place to obtain rich strategic resources, but also regarded it as one of the rear bases for the southward expansion plan.

In a sense, the title of "Naval Manchuria" is by no means groundless.

Because of the extraordinary strategic value of the island, the Military Command did not hesitate to approve Sunakawa Kaneo's request for assistance and sent an almost full elite flying team.

The team members asked curiously, making the ground team leader Yujiro Takeuchi silently roll his eyes.

This kind of confidential military information is something that every little sergeant like him has access to.

However, in order to maintain his image in front of the younger generation, the old devil still pretended to reprimand:

“Shut up and don't ask about things you shouldn't ask. During the war, it's best to put away your curiosity and be careful that the intelligence agency of the garrison arrests you as a spy!”

"The support troops will be in place in a moment. You must follow the team members closely and do not leave my sight."

Hearing this, the little devil was like an eggplant beaten by frost, with no vitality left in his body.

Yujiro Takeuchi, who knew that his team member had a dream of flying, shook his head, and then patted the other player on the shoulder, indicating that he should give up those unrealistic ideas as soon as possible.

There is no way, HNA nowadays focuses on elite routes.

The pilots who fly the Zero fighter are all elites selected through various tests.

The training content of these people is quite rich. In addition to physical fitness, air combat theory and flight knowledge, they also need to undergo a lot of practical flying.

An ordinary soldier with a ground service background has no chance of becoming a pilot.

Unless, switch to Army Red Deer to try your luck.

I heard that the Army Aviation Group is recruiting flight candidates from the army recently, and has even recruited a group of enthusiastic young people from the private sector who have met the physical fitness standards. It seems that they are planning to launch some large-scale campaign.

“Okay, I get it.”

Just as the two Japanese soldiers were talking, a rapid alarm bell suddenly sounded in Dayingshan Airport.

With the blaring air defense siren, the ground crew who were still checking the tool list immediately started moving.

They decisively terminated all work above, and then quickly moved closer to the anti-aircraft artillery emplacements in small groups, ready to engage in battle to confront enemy aircraft.

“Captain Takeuchi, is the enemy the legendary Eighth Route Army Air Force? What should we do now? There is no course on anti-air attack in the training manual.”

Different from the panic of his own team members, ground crew leader Yujiro Takeuchi was quite calm.

The old Japanese soldier first covered his subordinate's mouth to prevent him from continuing to confuse the morale of the army.

He then looked at the Type 96 fighter jet not far away and explained confidently:

"Don't worry, it will definitely not be the Eighth Route Army Air Force. Qiongya is so far away from the North China region of the Republic of China, and a hasty attack simply does not conform to the operational logic of the modern army."

“What's more, the fighter jets at the airport have not been dispatched, so the unknown target is most likely our support force.”

As expected, only half a minute later, the airport announcement rang again.

“The alarm was lifted, and all ground support teams immediately returned to their posts. The coastal reconnaissance post just sent back the news that the support troops coming from afar from the mainland are about to land.”

Benzi Navy indeed attaches great importance to radio-related technology trees.

However, the technology is limited and the quality of their transceivers is very poor.

This thing is not only noisy, but also has various malfunctions from time to time.

The above problems were barely solved until the Type 52 Zero War was developed.

So many HNA pilots will take the initiative to remove the radio from their cars and saw off the antenna on the top of the aircraft in order to achieve weight reduction and perfect aerodynamics. Without a radio, there is no point in contacting the tower at the destination in advance. This is why Dayingshan Airport just sounded the air defense alarm.

Five minutes later, thirty-seven Zero Fighter Type 21s emerged from the clouds one after another.

Even at the end of the trip, the Japanese HNA pilots still maintained their combat formation and did not relax their vigilance at all due to external reasons.

After hovering over the airport for a while, these fighter jets were divided into three two-plane formations to guard the surrounding airspace. Others landed in Dayingshan Airport in an orderly manner according to the numbers on the tail of the aircraft.

"Wow! Look at the tail of the pilot plane. That Zero Fighter has four kill marks, and the pilot flying it is actually a quasi-ace!"

“This is the first time that our Qiongya Security Mansion has received a big shot of this level!”

“I'm lucky in three lives, I'm lucky in three lives!”

Looking at the green fuselage and the hook-shaped symbol on the tail, the Japanese ground crew present exclaimed repeatedly.

For these low-level soldiers in the rear area, quasi-ace-level naval aviation pilots are almost like big shots that they will never be able to touch in their lifetime.

When the fighter plane came to a stop, the captain of the flight team, Daisuke Niijō, climbed out of the cabin first, then stepped on the pedals on the fuselage and jumped off.

　　Diagonally behind the old Japanese, thirty-six short subordinates followed closely behind.

Compared with the local pilots of Qiongya Guards, this reinforcement force is really impressive.

“Yo yo yo, isn't this Makoto-kun?”

“How come you have only been promoted to a higher rank after three years of not seeing each other? Could it be that the man of the hour in the school couldn't even achieve a single decent achievement?”

"In my opinion, why don't you just hang out with me? My flight team just doesn't have enough strength yet, so adding one of you can barely supplement our strength."

In the early days of the Pacific War, a series of major and minor conflicts occurred between Japan and the U.S., the two main warring countries.

During this period, Benzi Hainan pilots with rich combat experience gave full play to the characteristics of zero weight, long range and excellent maneuverability. For a time, they could not find a suitable place on the battlefield.

Without him, A Chou's main carrier-based aircraft is still the F4F Wildcat.

This legendary endurance king developed by Grumman Steel Works is bulky and heavy, and has no advantage at all in terms of maneuverability. Coupled with the fact that Sachs cut tactics have not yet been fully popularized, the pilots of this book naturally have a smooth journey.

If you really want to hunt turkeys, you have to wait for the follow-up F6F Hellcat and F4U Corsair.

　　After hearing the strange sarcasm from his former classmate, Mikio Mako, the local flight captain in Qiongya, immediately changed his expression.

However, he was unable to refute, who made his own skills inferior to others.

With the idea of losing the enemy rather than losing the battle, he forcibly saluted and said:

“Major Xincheng, considering that you and I are both graduates of the Naval War School, I advise you to swallow your arrogance.”

“The local resistance organization in Qiongya belongs to TG, and the Eighth Route Army's air force is unique in the Asian battlefield. Can you really guarantee that those guerrillas will not apply for reinforcements from their superiors?”

“Don't forget, the range of the enemy aircraft is longer than that of the Zero War.”

As soon as these words came out, Daisuke Shinjo burst into laughter. In the old devil's view, his former classmates were just trying to save face.

In fact, the intelligence department of the Navy has long collected information about the Eighth Route Army Air Force, and the Military Command and the Combined Fleet have also issued relevant documents.

However, the above-mentioned series of behaviors did not attract the attention of front-line pilots.

The proud Haijiu believes that the descriptions from the battlefields of the Republic of China are too exaggerated. It is most likely an excuse for the failure of Army Red Deer and his colleagues.

It is just a semi-colonial and semi-feudal agricultural country. Even if it has the ability to build fighter jets, it is far inferior to its own zero-war technology.

So in their flight identification manual, there is not even a photo of the Eighth Route Army Air Force.

“Makaku-kun, I think you are frightened by the Eighth Route Army. Your so-called Eighth Route Army Air Force is nothing more than an Asian force flying British fighter jets.”

“It's just the Spitfire and Mosquito. It's not like I haven't seen these aircraft before. Bullying the Army Red Deer is their limit.”

“If I encounter him, I will definitely make sure the enemy never comes back!”

In Daisuke Shinjo's opinion, the Spitfire of the Eighth Route Army Air Force is most likely an initial model like the MK1, and its performance is barely similar to the Zero War Type 11.

But what he didn't know was that Master Ba's Spitfire was the MK9 that was far ahead of its time when it first appeared.

Coupled with more than a year of technical iteration, its performance in all aspects is almost the same as that of the future Griffin Spitfire, and its maximum horizontal flight speed is even infinitely close to the resentment.

What's more, the comrades of the 1st Air Division are not the second-rate pilots who led the British to stay in Australia and Southeast Asia.

Advanced air combat theory, coupled with large and small combat experience, will definitely give IJN a bit of a Chinese shock in the next operations.

Just when Mako Mikio was about to continue to refute, a rapid air defense warning came from the sky above Dayingshan Airport again.

“Huh? There are also support troops? Don't you just have 37 Zero Fighters?” (End of Chapter)
