Chapter 523: My Big Brother

In the sky, his eyes flashed, and Yu Hua felt this was not normal.

Because, generally speaking, at ten thousand meters high, there are only clouds, with nothing to reflect light.

He looked carefully into the cloud layer, and suddenly!

He saw a Fighter Plane hidden within the clouds suddenly reveal its form!

That smear of the Plaster Flag was extremely dazzling!!

Yu Hua shouted in surprise: "Pushichuofusiji!"

"Japanese Army Fighter Planes are coming!"

"Japanese Army planes are coming, hurry and engage the enemy!"

Since Pushichuofusiji's Chinese was poor, he could only understand a little, and even this little bit was something Yu Hua had taught him on the plane.

After the planes of the Sino-Soviet Mixed Air Brigade took off, Xu An commanded his team members to annihilate the remaining Japanese Army planes in the sky.

"Everyone, pull up!"

Yu Hua stepped off the plane!

He saw familiar faces.

At this moment!

In the sky less than one kilometer from Lanzhou, a Japanese Army plane formation was quietly approaching Lanzhou!!

This time, the Japanese Army plane commander leading the formation was named Watanabe Kojiro.

First!

After the Japanese Army occupied Wuhan, they reached Xinyang in Henan Province to the north, and Yichang in E Province to the west;

They arrived over Lanzhou to monitor the movements of the Republic of China Air Force on the ground.

After the air battle ended.

After all, before Marshal Liu passed away, he had expressed to the people of the whole country that he welcomed the National Government to station in Shancheng.

"Are these people all your friends?"

Seeing this, Yu Hua couldn't help but curse Luo Zhuoying for being an idiot.

Liu Wenhui, Deng Xihou, and Pan Wenhua were all waiting at the airport.

Fu Chang, Zhang Sike, Qiao Yifu, Zhou Conghua, and others were also waiting for Yu Hua's arrival.

"You take a squadron and lie in ambush in the clouds to the southwest."

In this brief air battle, the Japanese Army's vanguard was completely annihilated by the Chinese side.

The Soviet-style planes that had rushed over from Moscow also made emergency landings.

After several hours of flight, the plane landed at Shu County airport!

Now that the National Government had stationed in Shancheng, Liu Wenhui, Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua, and others had moved the command structure of the Sichuan Army to Shu County.

"In this air battle, I will definitely surpass you."

The Soviet pilots all headed toward the clouds in the northeast direction.

It was in this half-month that the Japanese Army took the lead in launching military operations against Nanchang.

Pushichuofusiji also broke out in a cold sweat!!

He took his formation and immediately flew into the clouds to the southwest.

"Song Ming!"

Among them were fifteen Fighter Planes, and the rest were all Bomber planes.

"Having been abroad for so long, I really miss the hot pot of our Sichuan Province."

There must be a large number of Japanese Army Bomber planes behind!

Fortunately, Pushichuofusiji's piloting skills were superb; he maneuvered the plane into a climb and performed a Cobra Maneuver.

The five Japanese Army Fighter Planes, like a lone boat in the vast ocean, could not stir up any waves at all before they were annihilated by the Sino-Soviet Fighter Planes.

"Su Jianglieshiji, you lead the Soviet formation and hide in the clouds to the northeast."

After the Wuhan Battle ended, although Chen Cheng was nominally the Commander of the 9th War Zone, the real power had already returned to the Deputy Commander, Xue Yue.

Successfully escaping the pursuit of the Japanese Army planes, soon, Pushichuofusiji's companions piloted their Fighter Planes to meet the Japanese Army planes.

Although the 106th Division was completely annihilated by the Chinese side at Wanjialing, the Japanese Army refused to admit it.

"Xu An!"

"Smoothly!" Yu Hua nodded.

At that time, Xue Yue was sitting in command at Changsha, and it was Luo Zhuoying who was stationed in Nanchang.

After Yu Hua arrived!

Everyone was applauding in welcome!

"In this air battle, I will definitely surprise you."

"Hehe..." Yu Hua smiled, "Brother Liu, I just got off the plane, and my stomach is still empty."

A Japanese Army plane was blown up.

"Warriors of the Imperial Army!"

"Xu..."

"Da-da-da!! —"

These two were classmates from the aviation school, and they hugged each other the moment they met.

"We will be arriving in Lanzhou soon, everyone must keep their spirits up."

"Long live the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere!!"

The person piloting this plane was none other than Xu An.

As a veteran of many battles, Xu An guessed that a large number of Japanese Army aircraft would come to bomb Lanzhou Airport today.

As long as the Japanese Army concentrated its superior forces to break through at one point, it could destroy the Chinese defense!

Okamura Yasuji concentrated his superior forces to launch a fierce attack on the western section of the Xiushui River!

The Japanese Army Divisions attacking Nanchang were the 101st Division and the 106th Division.

The eastern section of the Xiushui River is relatively flat, suitable for building bridges, and favorable for the Japanese Army's mechanized units.

Therefore, after Pushichuofusiji greeted Liu Wenhui, he left with his Soviet friends.

"You just focus on flying the plane, I will command the men to fight the Japanese Army's aircraft."

"We must take out this plane behind us."

To ensure the safety of Nanchang, Principal repeatedly ordered Xue Yue to strike first, attack the Japanese Army, and clear out the Japanese Army around Nanchang.

If they wanted to take off for combat, it would be extremely difficult, and the entire Lanzhou Airport might be completely destroyed by Japanese Army aircraft.

The Japanese Army first launched a fierce attack on the Xiushui River; this time, Okamura Yasuji chose a river-crossing point that no Chinese personnel had expected.

After finishing the hot pot, Yu Hua had Wei Dayong go find him documents regarding the Battle of Nanchang.

A large number of Japanese Army aircraft began to air-raid Lanzhou, preparing to destroy the Chinese airport and the assembly base for Soviet-style weapons.

Subsequently, Yu Hua and Xu An conversed.

He concentrated all the combat power of the 11th Army to support the 101st Division and the 106th Division.

"Was the journey smooth?" Deng Xihou inquired.

In Lotus Villa in Shu County, the main generals of the Sichuan Army were all gathered here.

The vanguard unit that they and the others had wiped out was only the vanguard sent by the Japanese Army.

Just as he was puzzled about why the vanguard unit he had dispatched had not yet come to rendezvous.

Pushichuofusiji also followed to Yu Hua's side.

As the Chinese squadron leader, Xu An shouted and immediately ran toward his plane.

"Lads, follow me!"

The mixed Chinese-Soviet squadron in Lanzhou also discovered the air battle in the sky.

"Lanzhou is a Chinese Air Force base; we must destroy it."

Let the 9th War Zone prepare for half a month, then launch operations against the Japanese.

This area concentrated the majority of the Republic of China Army's forces, and this was also the area where Okamura Yasuji's 11th Army operated.

"Long live the Imperial Army Holy War!"

On the ground!

Immediately, a piercing sound of airflow came from the clouds;

A plane with the Blue Sky and White Sun Flag on its wings appeared in the eyes of Yu Hua and the others.

They had discovered the Japanese Army's ambushing aircraft in the sky; otherwise, once the Japanese Army formation arrived...

The unit's combat effectiveness had not yet recovered, and regarding the orders from the Shancheng Jinling Command, Luo Zhuoying expressed that it was a bit difficult.

The fighter planes were light and agile, chasing the Japanese Army bombers; one after another, the Japanese Army bombers exploded into fireballs in the sky.

Yu Hua looked at the right hand the other party extended, and he nodded slightly: "Yu Hua!"

Yu Hua once again took Pushichuofusiji's plane to head to Shu County.

A wicked smile appeared on the corner of Watanabe Kojiro's mouth: "Yoshi!"

Xu An had just led the planes to land!

Subsequently, Pushichuofusiji and Su Jianglieshiji met up.

Afterward, Su Jianglieshiji began to brag about how many Japanese Army fighter planes he had taken down in the Republic of China in total.

After Su Jianglieshiji finished speaking, he then issued orders to the Soviet fighter pilots:

The Soviet planes immediately pulled up, and Pushichuofusiji also maneuvered his plane to perform a roll in the air.

"I'm afraid it's a plane returning from the Soviet side that encountered the little devils."

Soon, these bombers were caught up to by the Chinese and Soviet fighter planes.

The Sichuan Army generals were also all at Lotus Villa and had not left.

To ensure this air raid went smoothly, Watanabe Kojiro first dispatched ten fighter planes as a vanguard force.

Watanabe Kojiro roared!

However, they watched for quite a while but did not discover any Japanese Army aircraft.

"Yu..."

As long as the fighter planes were taken out, these bombers would all be sitting ducks!

"According to the flight range of the Japanese Army aircraft, they will arrive in five minutes."

After getting off the plane, Yu Hua immediately went to see these older brothers.

Watanabe Kojiro roared; he now knew that the plane formation he was leading had been surrounded and annihilated by the enemy.

However, how could clumsy bombers be a match for fighter planes?

"Long live the Imperial Army Holy War!!"

The Japanese Army dispatched fifty planes for this air raid on Lanzhou.

At this moment, in the sky, the plane Yu Hua was in was running low on fuel.

Intercept the Republic of China Air Force immediately!

Therefore, the Chinese units had massed heavy troops in the eastern section of the Xiushui River;

The western section of the Xiushui River had rugged terrain and was mountainous!

Here, the 107th Division guarded the western section of the Xiushui River, with the division arranged in a long, thin line formation.

Then return to the country via the Burma Road or the Railway!!

"Song Ming, assemble the team and take off immediately!"

Just at this moment, they heard the sound of aircraft machine guns coming from below!

Following closely, the sound of "Boom—" rang out.

Wei Dayong and the others stretched their necks, carefully observing the surrounding clouds, searching for Japanese Army aircraft.

He believed this air raid plan was going very smoothly!

"Yes!" Song Ming executed the order unswervingly.

"Otherwise, none of us will survive."

At the Lanzhou base!

Yu Hua stayed for a day, because there were too many aircraft gathered here.

Yu Hua spent more than two hours and finally finished reviewing the deployment for this Nanchang battle.

Behind Pushichuofusiji was a Japanese Army aircraft, pursuing relentlessly.

"Yu..."

Reorganized the 106th Division in the country!!

And for this operation, Okamura Yasuji wanted to wash away his shame.

Yu Hua had Wei Dayong and the others immediately set up the machine guns on both sides of the aircraft, preparing to fight the Japanese Army aircraft.

It was just that he did not know the vanguard force he had sent out had already been shot down by the Republic of China Air Force.

The method for the western section of the Xiushui River was very unreasonable; a division was set up in a long snake formation for defense, without depth, without focus, and defending everywhere.

After Luo Zhuoying reported it to Xue Yue, Xue Yue felt it made sense, so he reported it to Principal.

The 11th Army was the only field mobile force of the invading Japanese Army within the passes;

It bore the strategic task of so-called "destroying the main force of the Chinese side on the frontal battlefield and striking the Shancheng government's will to resist."

"Xu... I have practiced my skills hard, and my flight technique has already improved greatly."

Zhang Haoyun, the person in charge of the ground base, authorized Xu An to command this battle.

The group left the airport!

A series of bullets fell toward Watanabe Kojiro's aircraft.

After Xu An took off, he used his superb flight technique to take down two more Japanese Army aircraft.

"Go, go, go..." Pan Wenhua stepped forward: "Let's go eat hot pot now."

After speaking, Xu An pulled his control stick, and the aircraft climbed, hiding in the clouds.

Xu An was the first to set up his aircraft and take off.

Fortunately, the Bomber was thick-skinned and sturdy; a burst of machine gun bullets did not cause much damage to the Bomber.

On the frontal battlefield, the 11th Army took the initiative to launch 14 campaigns;

Among them, the two supporting attacks were the Zhe-Gan Battle and the Xuefeng Mountain Campaign, respectively.

Within the Japanese Army aircraft formation, five Fighter Planes were the first to become the targets of the Chinese and Soviet aircraft.

"Warriors of the Imperial Army, let me hear your shouts!"

Suddenly, in the sky, the Japanese Army aircraft inside the clouds opened fire, and a burst of bullets drifted past the aircraft Yu Hua was in.

After hearing Yu Hua's shout, Pushichuofusiji immediately yelled: "Pull up!"

For any overseas aid, if one wants to return to the country by sea, one can only detour through Myanmar.

"Su Jianglieshiji, I'll wait for you." Xu An grinned.

At this time, Watanabe Kojiro had not received reports from his subordinates.

Therefore, Xu An immediately discussed the combat plan with the ground base.

"Not bad!" Liu Wenhui patted Yu Hua on the shoulder: "You kid got familiar with the Soviet pilots so quickly."

Luo Zhuoying was the Frontline Commander-in-Chief!

According to the arrangements of the Nanyue Military Conference, the troops were to begin reorganization and training; the troops on the Nanchang front line were still undergoing reorganization and training.

The Lotus Villa in Shu County was lively for the first time.

When the Japanese Army aircraft formation arrived over Lanzhou and saw the aircraft neatly arranged on the runway on the ground.

Now Lanzhou had already become the lifeline for the Republic of China's supplies.

"Baka!"

"It's a trap!"

The aircraft formation led by Pushichuofusiji would be dispersed to various bases across the country.

Five fireballs erupted in the sky, falling toward the ground!

"Baka Yaro!" The aircraft Watanabe Kojiro was in was hit.

The various generals of the Sichuan Army, in the face of national righteousness, did not block the National Government from entering Chuan.

Hearing this, Yu Hua nodded, "Pushichuofusiji, they are all my big brothers."

Xu An said to the remaining team members: "Everyone else, come with me."

"Flee for your lives immediately!"

After he took off, he discovered a Japanese Army aircraft lying in ambush in the clouds, preparing to sneak attack the Soviet-style aircraft above.

If their air raid was detected by the Republic of China Army, there would be signs that the Republic of China Air Force had prepared in advance.

Suddenly, a burst of machine gun fire came from above him!!

"Da-da-da!! —"

The team members from both China and the Soviet side immediately ran toward the runway.

Inside the base, a piercing alarm sounded.

Both sides engaged in a fierce air battle in the sky!!

The Soviet-made aircraft that came to the Republic of China from Moscow this time included not only bombers but also fighter planes.

The Soviet personnel talked among themselves, while Xu An came before Yu Hua.

Xu An told Yu Hua that it was fortunate that Yu Hua and the others had landed their plane at Lanzhou Airport this time.

"Get out of the combat zone quickly!"

As for Lanzhou, this land transportation hub, the Imperial General Headquarters regarded it as a thorn in their side.

Afterwards, Pushichuofusiji saw that there were no Japanese Army planes around, and he prepared to make an emergency landing.

Because the plane was running out of fuel!!

In the sky, Xu An covered Pushichuofusiji's emergency landing.

Yu Hua also understood, and he said to Pushichuofusiji: "I know."

Ever since the fall of Guangzhou, the Navy of the Japanese Army had completely blockaded the maritime transportation lines of the Republic of China.

Subsequently, Yu Hua also introduced Liu Wenhui and the others to Pushichuofusiji.

Because most of the planes had no fuel left.

South to Yueyang and Changsha in Hunan Province, east to Jiujiang and Anqing in Gan Province, and southeast to Nanchang.

At first, Lao Chang ignored it, but after Xue Yue sent a second telegram, he had no choice but to agree.

The Zhe-Gan Battle was launched by the 13th Army of the Japanese Army, and the Xuefeng Mountain Campaign was launched by the 20th Army of the Japanese Army.

Therefore, on the frontal battlefield, the history of the invading Japanese Army was almost entirely the history of the 11th Army.
