Chapter 773 773 Il-2 attack aircraft

"Go back! Go back! Have you seen the anti-aircraft gun position that is firing! Prepare to attack! Prepare to attack!" In the rapidly turning plane, the pilot of the Tang Army planned loudly through his oxygen mask while pulling his control stick. .

"I went around from the left! He's trying to attack me! They're trying to attack me!" The pilot shouted excitedly in the cockpit of an airplane that tilted to the other side.

The two planes went around from different directions. The tracer bullets flying on the ground gradually chased one plane away, but it was still a step slower.

"Raise the angle! They are probably going to dive!" Based on past experience, the anti-aircraft artillerymen of the Great China Empire began to turn the wheel cranks to point their anti-aircraft gun barrels higher into the sky.

 The anti-aircraft gun positions on both sides did not fire and were not exposed. This was a routine they had long been familiar with. As soon as the opponent starts to dive, they will fire from the blind area of ​​​​vision and sneak attack those Stukas that have fixed their routes.

But this time, after Tang Jun's plane circled far away, it did not start to climb. Instead, it flew back levelly at such an unfamiliar altitude.

 The other two planes climbed up in the distance, attracting the Dahua anti-aircraft artillery troops who were adjusting their firing angles. However, the two Tang Army planes that did not climb directly pointed their noses at the anti-aircraft artillery positions that had just opened fire to attack them.

“Cover me! Experiment with new weapons!” The lead pilot flying in front seemed a little excited because he was ready to use the new weapons in actual combat.

The new weapons provided by the Datang Group are often very powerful, and when used for the first time in battle, they will have unexpected effects.

He really wanted to see which of the new aviation rockets he mounted was more powerful and performed better on the battlefield compared with bombs.

Completely different from the previous Stuka dive bombers, the Il-2 attack aircraft he flew had a flatter attack angle and a completely different attack method.

If the Stuka uses the dive inertia to improve the bombing accuracy to the missile level and maximize the damage rate of each bombing, then the attack method of the IL-2 attack aircraft is to lick the ground with intensive firepower!

  To destroy solid targets, the Il-2 attack aircraft is actually not as effective as the Stuka dive bomber. However, when dealing with a large number of targets scattered on the ground, the Il-2 attack aircraft is more effective than the Stuka.

Driving this Il-2 attack aircraft that appeared over the battlefield for the first time, the pilot of the Tang Army pressed the cross mark on his sight on the Dahua anti-aircraft gun position that had just opened fire.

His sides are thick armored steel plates, and the glass in front is several centimeters thick. His entire body is wrapped in armor, and this design ensures his safety to the greatest extent.

 So, he was not worried at all and calmly pointed the nose of his plane at the target on the ground. Then, he pulled the launcher and began to ignite the aviation rockets mounted under the wings.

The fuselage of the aircraft trembled slightly in the next second. After the two rockets were ignited, they flew out from under the wings of the IL-2 attack aircraft with billowing smoke, and rushed straight towards the small high ground in the distance.

For the sake of safety, the pilots of the Tang Army directly launched the attack with a salvo of two rockets.

Unable to confirm the results of his attack, he pulled up the plane and made evasive maneuvers. Because the anti-aircraft guns of the Dahua Air Defense Force appear in twos and threes, he must ensure that his flight path is changing at all times.

 Only strange changes can make it impossible for the Dahua anti-aircraft gunners hiding in the corner with evil intentions to be traced, and prevent them from opening fire in advance for sneak attacks.

Sure enough, another anti-aircraft artillery position was exposed. They opened fire at the rising Tang Army Il-2 attack aircraft, but were suppressed by the cannon of another Il-2 following closely behind.

 Four 20mm cannons fired at the same time. The scene could definitely be described as spectacular. Suddenly, the firing anti-aircraft gun position was silent, and the camouflage net was torn apart by the cannon shells and flew aside.

Just as the two Il-2 attack planes pulled up, two rockets coming at an angle accurately hit the Dahua Empire anti-aircraft gun that fired first.

The 132mm caliber rocket was absolutely powerful. The huge explosion engulfed the high ground and the Dahua anti-aircraft gun on the high ground.

 One rocket accurately hit the target, and another rocket also landed very close to the Dahua anti-aircraft gun position.

At the anti-aircraft gun position that had just been strafed by the Il-2 wingman, the Dahua officer got up in embarrassment and looked back at the friendly position. All he could see was burning flames.

"What kind of new weapon is this?" A thought flashed through Officer Dahua's mind, and he suddenly felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

They finally began to adapt to the rhythm of fighting the Tang Army's dive bombers, but the Tang Army came up with a brand-new aircraft and a brand-new method of warfare.

 Why, why can the people of Tang always be in front of their Great China Empire? Why, why do they always get beaten passively because they can't adapt to the progress of the Tang people? When he realized something and looked at the anti-aircraft gun position he was responsible for commanding, he only saw a mess and corpses all over the ground.

The densely packed 20mm caliber machine gun shells just swept over like raindrops, shattering all the Dahua soldiers near the anti-aircraft gun into pieces.

Some unlucky guys were directly shot in two by large-caliber machine gun shells. Some were more lucky. Although there was a big hole in their bodies, their bodies were still intact.

　　Less than half of the remaining people were frightened by the **** storm just now. They froze in place, letting the blood spread and flow under their feet.

"Make it up! You control the horizontal steering! You control the height and angle! The rest of the people load! Load quickly!" As he walked over and prepared to take over from the gunner, the Dahua officer ordered loudly.

He took the gunner's body, whose shoulders had been blown off, from the seat, then sat on the blood-stained position and looked at the blue sky through the sight.

At this time, the two Il-2 attack aircraft that had regained some altitude in the distance and were responsible for clearing the anti-aircraft gun positions also happened to circle back and pointed their noses here again.

“Beep! Beep!” A clear whistle came from an invisible place at the other end of the explosion and burning flames.

 That is the last anti-aircraft gun position that has not yet been exposed, and the whistle is being used to confirm the situation of friendly forces. Officer Dahua, who was sitting in the gunner's position, grabbed the iron whistle hanging around his neck, put it in his mouth and blew it rhythmically.

The whistle on the other side seemed a little excited, and it seemed that the other party was also happy that he still had a helper. More complex tactical arrangements cannot be transmitted by relying on the whistle, so now they can only fight on their own.

Just when the Dahua officer used his whistle to communicate, the two Il-2 attack aircraft of the Tang Army had each fired two rockets, and then the troops turned in two directions. It seemed that they were using maneuvers to avoid possible oncoming attacks in advance. s attack.

Watching the opponent launch rocket attacks from a distance, the Dahua anti-aircraft artillery unit had absolutely nothing to do against those "self-flying bombs".

 They can only fire at the white smoke and wait for their doomsday to come. Soon four rockets hit the anti-aircraft gun position one after another, and then four raging flames burst into flames.

The shock wave blew away the mutilated corpses and the fragmented remains of the anti-aircraft guns. The entire position was a sea of ​​fire. In the flame-scorched soil, there was a whistle with a broken rope.

The third anti-aircraft gun position opened fire this time, because if it did not declare its presence, two high-altitude IL-2 attack aircraft would begin to attack the lower supply base.

With no other choice, they had no choice but to open fire and expose themselves to ensure the safety of the distant camp.

 But they had just opened fire when two Il-2 attack aircraft from low down launched an attack. After the lead aircraft in front pointed its nose at the target, it began to fire with a 20 mm cannon.

The wingman followed behind and launched an attack. The eight cannons fired more than 100 shells in one breath, submerging the last anti-aircraft artillery position deployed by the Dahua army here in a hail of bullets.

The gunners and commanders of the last anti-aircraft gun position never dreamed that they would be suppressed frontally by eight aircraft cannons.

The Dahua officer who was still thinking about how to shoot down an enemy plane so that he could forcefully communicate with the air defense commander was shattered by a 20mm caliber artillery shell before he could spit out the whistle in his mouth.

On the other side, the IL-2 attack aircraft with sufficient ammunition launched an attack on the camp, relying on the ground-licking attack method of intensive cannon fire, causing heavy losses to the Dahua logistics troops.

They lost the cover of anti-aircraft guns and had no solid bunkers to hide in. When faced with the terrifying hail of machine-gun shells from the Il-2, they could only use the most primitive methods to save their lives.

 That’s right, it’s the most primitive method: run away like a rat with your head covered! But before they ran far, they were overtaken by the shells behind them and torn apart by the terrifying kinetic energy of the shells.

One rocket after another destroyed the materials piled in the open space, explosions occurred one after another, and finally ended when the flames engulfed the ammunition depot, and the small explosion turned into a big explosion.

There was no Dahua troops to rescue supplies and no one to put out the fire. The Dahua logistics troops, frightened by the sudden air attack, collapsed under the repeated attacks of four IL-2s.

After completing their attack plan and testing their various weapons, these four Tangguoyir-2 attack aircraft, which participated in the war for the first time, abandoned the messy Dahua Camp and flew away, disappearing into the distant sky.
