Chapter 703 Heavy Bomber Formation Death Comes
Wang Yi called the General Command Post and told Su Zhengyang: "Report to the Commander-in-Chief, we have successfully completed the long-range fire strike mission against the enemy's air defense system, successfully destroyed most of the enemy's air defense units, weakened their air defense capabilities, and created extremely favorable conditions for our subsequent air strikes."
Su Zhengyang was in the headquarters, facing the electronic map and the real-time battlefield situation display, and heard Wang Yi's report. He responded quickly and said to Wang Yi: "Very good, continue to suppress the enemy. I will immediately issue an order to the air force to prepare to launch a devastating air strike on their position on Hongyan Mountain."
He quickly turned around, facing the rows of communication equipment, and began to issue orders: "Air Force units, prepare, target Hongyan Mountain, conduct a comprehensive air strike preparation, and be sure to reach the designated airspace within half an hour to carry out a devastating strike mission."
At the military airport in Nagasaki City, fighter planes of the A Wing of the 1st Air Division were lined up in neat rows, like a group of eagles ready to soar into the sky and carry out their sacred mission.
Wing Commander Lee Harman stood on the control tower, his eyes piercing as he scanned the fighter formations below. He was wearing a neat flight suit, with medals hanging all over his chest, which were the testimony of his countless heroic battles.
"Flying Swallow fighter formation, Cheetah fighter formation, heavy bomber formation, everyone pay attention!" Li Hamman's voice spread throughout the airport through the loudspeaker. His voice was firm and powerful, full of unquestionable authority.
"Tonight, our target is the enemy's Red Rock Mountain position. This is a crucial battle. We must destroy the enemy's defense system with a thunderous force and clear the obstacles for the ground forces' offensive." Li Haman's words revealed his emphasis on the mission and his firm belief in victory.
"Flying Swallow Fighter Formation, you will serve as the vanguard, responsible for reconnaissance and suppressing the enemy's air defense firepower. Your mission is to ensure that our bombers can safely reach the target." Li Hamman turned his gaze to the commander of the Feiyan Fighter Formation, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Cheetah fighter formation, you will follow closely behind the Flying Swallows and provide air cover for the bomber formation to ensure that they can successfully complete the bombing mission. Your presence will be the most solid backing for the bomber formation."
"Heavy bomber formation, you are the protagonists tonight. Your mission is to drop bombs accurately and destroy the enemy's fortifications and command centers.
The heavy bomber formation consisted of 36 Lancaster heavy bombers. In addition to carrying a large number of bombs, each bomber also carried a goblet bunker buster. "Now, I ask each of you to remain highly alert and focused, because we will face a brutal battle tonight. However, I firmly believe that everyone here is the best fighter, and we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy and achieve the final victory!" Li Haman's words were full of encouragement and motivation, which made every soldier present excited and full of fighting spirit.
Following Li Haman's order, the entire airport suddenly became busy. Pilots boarded their fighter planes one after another to conduct final inspections and preparations. The roar of the engines rose and fell, as if announcing to the world the magnificent journey they were about to embark on.
In the night, the fighter planes of the A Wing of the First Air Division took off, cut through the sky, and rushed towards the enemy's Red Rock Mountain position. A thrilling air raid was about to take place, and the balance of victory had quietly tilted.
Under the cover of night, the two fighter formations cut through the sky like sharp blades in the dark night, following the huge figure of the bomber formation and rushing towards the enemy's Hongyan Mountain position. The Feiyan fighter formation shuttled in front with its agility, and the Cheetah fighter formation followed closely behind, like a solid line of defense, protecting the bomber formation from the enemy's invasion.
The Lancaster heavy bombers in the bomber formation, each carrying a heavy mission, are like mobile fortresses, the roar of the engine echoing in the night sky, announcing the prelude to destruction and rebirth. Each bomber is equipped with an advanced navigation system to ensure that they can reach the target accurately.
However, the situation on Hongyan Mountain was not optimistic. Two Fuso military airports had been reduced to ruins, and only one extremely hidden airport was still lingering, maintaining the ability for fighter jets to take off. This airport became the last hope of the Fuso army and the key to their resistance to enemy air raids.
When the enemy's flight formation entered the radar monitoring range, Mitsui, the experienced commander, immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. He knew that if the enemy bomber formation was allowed to enter the airspace, the consequences would be disastrous. So he gave the order without hesitation, asking the only two remaining fighter formations to take off immediately to intercept.
"All fighter formations, take off immediately! Target enemy bomber formations and intercept them at all costs!" Mitsui's voice spread throughout the airport through the communication equipment, and every word he said was filled with determination and firmness.
Fuso's fighter formations responded quickly, drawing rapid tracks in the night sky and rushing towards the enemy bomber formations. Although these fighters are few in number, each one is equipped with advanced weapon systems and electronic warfare equipment. They will defeat the strong with the weak and fight to defend their homeland.
In the night sky, the fighter formations of both sides engaged in a fierce dogfight. The Feiyan fighter formation, with its flexible maneuverability and accurate shooting, constantly harassed and attacked the enemy fighters, while the Cheetah fighter formation provided solid cover for the bomber formation with its powerful firepower and solid protection.
"Flying Swallow Formation, maintain the distance between the formations, use snake-like maneuvers, and disrupt the enemy's line of sight!" The commander of the Flying Swallow Formation issued an order via the radio, his voice calm and decisive. The Flying Swallow fighters responded quickly, drawing complex trajectories in the air, using high-speed maneuvers to evade enemy attacks while constantly looking for opportunities to attack.
Fuso's fighter formation was not to be outdone.
"All fighters, maintain formation, use your speed advantage, and implement cutting tactics!" Under the cover of night, the Fuso fighters used their speed advantage to try to penetrate through the gaps in the enemy formation, posing a threat to the bomber formation.
However, the commander of the Cheetah fighter formation had already anticipated the enemy's intentions. "Cheetah formation, pay attention to the enemy's movements, provide close cover, and ensure the safety of the bomber formation!" His instructions were quickly conveyed to each Cheetah fighter. Like loyal guardians, the Cheetahs followed closely behind the bomber formation, using their powerful firepower and solid protection to build an indestructible line of defense for the bomber formation.
The air battle between the two sides became more and more intense, with the roar of machine guns and the whistling of missiles interweaving together, breaking the silence of the night. The Flying Swallow Formation relied on its excellent maneuverability to continuously harass and attack the enemy aircraft; while the Cheetah Formation, with its powerful firepower and accurate shooting, shot down the enemy aircraft that tried to approach the bomber formation one by one.
In this aerial duel, the commanders of both sides showed their superb command and tactical qualities. They constantly transmitted instructions and battle information through the radio, constantly adjusted tactics and formations, and strived to gain the upper hand in the fierce air battle. The fighter pilots of both sides relied on their extraordinary courage and superb flying skills to launch a life-and-death duel in the night sky.
