Age of Conquest Reborn

The Japanese army in the direction of the Korean Peninsula allowed the troop carrier formation of the Southeast Mobile Corps to cross the Yellow Sea without any hindrance. Major General Liu Cuigang, the commander of the Northern Aviation Group who was stationed at Qingdao ground air command, was very puzzled. Could it be that the Japanese land-based aviation force in Japan

, giving up the best opportunity for a sea strike? And want to carry out a surprise attack after the troops land? So, in which direction? Incheon? Gunsan? Mokpo? It's all possible.

Liu Cuigang shook his head and thought to himself: "Forget it, don't worry about it. No matter what tricks the little devils play, after the landing battle begins, all trump cards must be revealed!" He agreed with the words of Chief of Staff Dong Ningxuan, the Third Army of the Southeast Mobile Corps

More than 100,000 yuan

The Japanese army was divided into three groups, plus the escort fleet, escort aircraft group, and bomber group. With such a huge formation, it was impossible for the Japanese army not to get any news. What's more, the escort fighter group shot down a few hours ago.

Dozens of Japanese reconnaissance aircraft.

Liu Cuigang turned around and said to Dong Ningxuan: "Ning Xuan, the troops are about to start landing. Order all ground radar stations to closely monitor the movements of the Japanese land-based aviation forces in Japan! It's time for them to show up!"

Dong Ningxuan smiled and said: "Commander, I'm afraid the most anxious person right now is not you, but Commander Le in the sky!"

"Hahaha!" Liu Cuigang laughed, "Report to the commander and chief of staff. After receiving a report from the Chengshanjiao radar station, more than 600 Japanese aircraft took off from the direction of Kyushu Island, Japan. They were divided into two groups, the front and rear, because the distance was still far away.

, the specific model cannot be determined yet!" A communications staff officer put down the phone and reported.

"Finally showed up!" Liu Cuigang raised his eyebrows, "Which way?" "All the way" "Direction" "Towards Mokpo!"

A few short questions and answers, but related to the landing battle on the Korean Peninsula and the battle with the Japanese land-based aircraft fleet for air supremacy. "Report to the commander and chief of staff, after receiving a report from the Liugong Island ground radar station, from the Japanese mainland Kyushu Island.

About 600 aircraft have taken off from several airports. They are divided into two echelons with different flying heights. The radar station is identifying the Japanese aircraft types!" Another staff officer put down the phone and reported.

Liu Cuigang asked calmly: "The direction of the Japanese military aircraft group?"

The staff officer replied: "Mokpo!"

"How long will it take for our troop transport formation to approach Mokpo?"

"It will take less than an hour!"

"Approximate time when the Japanese fleet arrived in Mokpo airspace?"

"In about fifty minutes!

"Huh!" Liu Cuigang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the Japanese land-based aircraft fleet showed up. Moreover, the specific direction was determined. It seems that Mokpo is the only attack direction of the Japanese aircraft fleet, and the commander of the Little Japanese Air Force.

He really adopted a style of play that he didn’t believe in the most. He really got kicked in the head by a donkey. Liu Cuigang

I was so happy, "Probably, the Japanese commander wanted to concentrate all the combat aircraft and cut off the Southeast Mobile Corps, right? - However, the little devil kicked the iron plate. The old man concentrated three escort fighter groups in the direction of Mokpo.

More than two-thirds of the troops! Another overwhelming air battle!" he thought happily.

Liu Cuigang picked up the intercom with a smile, "Old man, you still have the foresight. The ground radar station reported that the Japanese fighter fleet stationed on Kyushu Island has emerged, and the number is no less than 600! We have been prepared for it.

, you can eat it!”

"Yes. It's in the direction of Mokpo. It's divided into two echelons with different flying heights. It should be a mixed fleet of fighters and bombers. It's an old trick. It's calculated based on the time when the Japanese fleet took off. It was when the Southeast Mobile Corps began to land. Old man,

The next step is up to you, Qingdao Air Control will provide you with the situation of the Japanese aircraft fleet at any time!" He said concisely.

"Hahaha!" Le Yiqin laughed heartily and crazily on the phone, "Cui Gang, I really doubt that the commander of the Little Japanese Air Force was kicked in the head by a donkey? Hit the beach to stop the attack.

Ah! Only those little devils can think of airplanes doing the work of infantry. Well, I'm just waiting for these bastards! It's time to eat meat again today!"

"Cui Gang, I have decided to send out a mixed fighter group to meet the enemy. I will limit the air combat area to the Busan area, away from the troop landing site. I will first attack the Japanese fighter jets and then deal with the Japanese bombers. The air fire support of the landing troops will be handed over to the ship.

Airborne troops, the bombing mission should be handed over to the bomber group, what do you think?"

From Le Yiqin's laughter, Liu Cuigang could hear the strong confidence and confidence. In the direction of Mokpo, not counting carrier-based aircraft, the number of Le Yiqin's fleet and escort fighter jets reached nearly 800, and

The Japanese army is a mixed fleet. Even if the number of fighter jets is the majority, it is still at a numerical disadvantage. Moreover, there is asymmetric aerial intelligence. Every move of the Japanese fleet falls in its own eyes. It is said that it is a escort fighter group.

Not an exaggeration!

"Yiqin, you are the commander of the escort aircraft group. You decide how to attack! I will only provide you with information on the combat airspace!" Liu Cuigang said.

Le Yiqin laughed, "Old man, just keep an eye on the Japs' fleet. The airborne radar's search range is not enough, so we can only rely on the eyes on the ground!"

The clear sky is not conducive for the fleet to use the cover of clouds to covertly engage the enemy. The 360-plus fighter jets and more than 250 bombers of the 3rd Air Force stationed on Kyushu Island, Japan, form a mixed aerial formation.

Flying slowly, from the ground, the Japanese aircraft formed a huge formation, rumbled across the blue sky, and the momentum was amazing.

Major General Kenjiro Kumamoto, commander of the Third Air Force, flew his beloved fighter plane at the front of the formation, escorted by his wingmen. Major General Kumamoto looked through the cockpit at the mirrored sky and couldn't help but frown, like this

weather, unfavorable

Because the aircraft group is hidden, if there are clouds, the bomber group of the Third Air Force suddenly appears in the sky above the China landing troops, dropping tons of bombs, and the damn China soldiers are scattered with blood and flesh. What a thrilling scene it would be.

What a scene!

Strictly speaking, the Third Air Force is the air defense force of Kyushu Island. It has never fought outside its homeland, and no enemy aircraft has ever dared to offend the airspace of the Empire of Japan. Today, Major General Kumamoto personally leads the team.

Secondly, the idea of ​​making the Third Air Force famous in one battle was mainly because Major General Kumamoto himself wanted to kill the Chinese soldiers. He also wanted to see how the Imperial pilots he had trained for several years would fare in actual combat.

Performance.

Of course, seeing the Chinese soldiers desperately struggling, helpless and frightened under the muzzle of his own gun, and the scorching hot bullets that shot through the bodies of the Chinese soldiers, leaving behind a shower of blood, in the eyes of Major General Kumamoto, it was even worse than

The cherry blossoms in full bloom on Mount Fuji are even more brilliant.

Major General Kumamoto, who graduated from the Imperial Flying Academy, is not only an excellent fighter pilot, but also considers himself an excellent tactician. He absolutely despises the Chinese people, but he still highly respects China's ancient military art.

, admired it to the point of even being jealous. Major General Kumamoto still very much agreed with General Tanaka’s strategy of concentrating all the combat aircraft of the Third Air Force, choosing one place, and delivering the heaviest blow to the China landing force.

Of course, an outstanding tactician like himself would not fail to know that the best way to block the enemy's landing force is to sink all its troop transport fleets at sea. Before the enemy soldiers can see the continental line,

Being buried under the sea and using combat aircraft to block enemy forces on the beach is the worst tactic. Therefore, when General Tanaka asked the Third Air Force how to fight, Major General Kumamoto almost laughed out loud.

Major General Kumamoto has every reason to believe that General Tanaka, the Turkish emperor of the Korean Peninsula, is definitely an amateur in commanding air combat. If it were another air force commander, he would refuse without hesitation, but Major General Kumamoto is an excellent tactician, and his thinking

Just different from ordinary people.

Is this reverse thinking? When everyone thinks that the fight must be like this, why don't you do the opposite and give up attacking the independent division's troop transport fleet on the Yellow Sea? Instead, attack on the beachhead.

The unconventional fighting style will definitely exceed the expectations of the commander of the independent division's escort aircraft group. Using Chinese tactics to massacre Chinese soldiers will definitely give a different pleasure.

Moreover, Major General Kumamoto had a further consideration. The escort fleet of the Independent Division's troop transport fleet took off from the Shandong Peninsula in China. The distance was farther than that of his own fleet that took off from Kyushu Island Airport. Compared with the two, the escort fleet of the Independent Division

The stay time of the fighter group will be greatly shortened. The more the combat airspace of the group moves toward the Korean Strait, the more beneficial it will be to itself. When the independent division fighter group runs out of fuel and loses air cover, the soldiers of the independent division who have landed will

, aren’t you just letting yourself be slaughtered?

Major General Kumamoto was very satisfied with his strategy. No one would have thought that the majestic Major General of the Imperial Japanese Air Force would adopt such a tactics. This is called surprise. In this air battle, not only the number of fighter jets was competed, but also the number of fighter jets.

If there is time in the air, even if your own fleet returns to Kyushu Island Airport to refuel, and then flies to the Korean Peninsula battlefield again, it will be much faster than the independent division fighter group. This is an advantage!

Therefore, General Tanaka's lay orders coincided with Major General Kumamoto's contrary tactics. This was one of the reasons why he readily agreed to go to war. However, he then thought that Major General Kumamoto's strategy was nothing more than that.

That would be a big mistake.

Major General Kumamoto looked at the instrument panel of the plane. It had been twenty minutes since takeoff. He turned on the formation intercom and said, "Every fighter wing and bomber wing, my air formation commander, Major General Kumamoto, now I order the fleet to change course immediately."

, target, Incheon Port airspace!”

"Hani?" All Japanese combat aircraft wing commanders were shocked when they heard the order. Before taking off, wasn't the combat mission assigned by the Air Force Headquarters to attack the independent division landing force in the airspace of Mokpo Port?

Why did the Commander suddenly change his order and go to Incheon?
