"The squadron leader's plane is on fire!" Xiao Lu in the back seat shouted urgently through the sound transmission tube.

Sure enough, at the center of the fan—that is, at the front end—the squadron leader’s nose was wrapped in thick smoke and fire, and it was obvious at a glance that it was hopeless.

"Squadron leader—" Liu Yun clenched his fists, tears rolled in his eyes, but he was helpless.I watched helplessly as the squadron leader's landline crashed into the sea with a long trail of smoke.

"Little Lu... salute the squadron leader before leaving..."

At the cost of the squadron leader's sacrifice, the torpedoes dropped by the No. [-] Squadron exploded on the port side of the enemy ship with two huge jets of water higher than the masthead. This is also a unique way of mourning for the Navy...

Lieutenant General Schroeder climbed down the ladder and stepped onto the deck of the destroyer "Jensen". In front of him, the [-]-ton "New Hampshire" was half-turned, covered with red anti-rust paint and barnacle algae. Bottom is prominently exposed above the waterline.

"It's outdated after all, rest in peace." Schroeder crossed himself on his chest.

A thousand yards away, the armored cruiser "Pueblo" revealed its huge brass propeller. Its sharp bow had already been submerged underwater, and the surviving crew members were floating around like dumplings. "Campbell" The USS destroyer was heading for them.

Lieutenant General Schroeder still clearly remembered that a few minutes ago, the destroyer "Rodrigue" was broken into two pieces in front of him. Like suddenly evaporated.

A bearded major from the captain of the "Jensen" greeted him: "Your Excellency, where are you going to transfer? We still have 4 cruisers, but I want to remind you that I saw the starboard side of the Fort Peters was hit." Although he is still running happily there, like a humpback whale in heat, God knows when it..."

"What else did you see? For example, have you counted how many planes fell from the sky?"

"Four, I swear by the Bible, four dropped from start to finish."

Schroeder shrugged: "It doesn't matter, we did a much better job than at Pearl Harbor. There were so many planes at Pearl Harbor, but we killed 10 of our battleships in half an hour." I had no choice but to comfort myself like this.

"Because they were shooting dead targets at that time, and now we are not just letting them play dead fish." The captain did not forget to flatter his boss at such a time.

"They will come again. See the rain clouds over there? God hasn't given up on us. We're going to hide in the rain. Before that, please send me to the St. Louis."

"We are happy to help--"

Schroeder raised his head and looked at the fleet of Longjun planes that were gradually receding in the southwest sky, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, everything was just the beginning, and he believed that the best show was yet to come.

"The enemy plane is coming again!" Suddenly someone shouted in panic.

Schroeder was startled, and grabbed the yelling person: "Where is it?"

The sailor pointed in the direction of Panama City.

Schroeder took a closer look, trembling with excitement.

"It's Mitchell, Mitchell's Army Air Corps is on the move! Let's cheer for them, pray for them—"

There was a tsunami on the ship: "Long live Mitchell!"

"Long live the Army Air Corps!"

"Long Live America—"

When the first attack wave returned, Gao Xinxin's No. [-] Fleet Battle Squadron was assigned to cover at the end of the formation. He gently shook the wings of the aircraft, probably worried that the wingman would fall behind. The strange plane is right behind the fleet!

Calm down, calm down - have to report to the squadron leader first.

Gao Xinxin pulled down the accelerator, rushed to the right front of the squadron leader, and used gestures to remind him to look back.The squadron leader looked back and gestured back to her: "Go and inform the commander." Then he shook the wings violently and led the planes to turn around and kill them.

Gao Xinxin followed the order and rushed to the commander at the front of the formation, that is, her uncle Gao Zhihang's plane, and reported the situation with gestures.Gao Zhihang nodded to her, and quickly fired two signal flares, one red and one green, to indicate that "there are enemy planes in the sky", and the escort fighter jets should be put into battle immediately.

After Gao Xinxin finished her report, she stepped on the rudder and turned around to catch up with the squadron. She would never give up this good opportunity to kill the enemy.Gao Xinxin must use the feat of shooting down the enemy plane to wash away the shame of being shot down over Pearl Harbor. This is Gao Xinxin's idea.Pushing the accelerator to the end, he quickly caught up with the squadron, and before he had time to seize the position, he insisted on an enemy plane and rushed towards him!

Open fire!

When the trigger is pulled, the enemy plane seems to fill the entire field of vision ahead!

Gao Xinxin didn't close her eyes, but just pulled the lever in reflex, and the plane trembled suddenly, almost bouncing against the opponent's wing.She didn't let go of the stick, and at the same time pushed full throttle.The plane climbed along an arc, the nose was lifted higher and higher, and after passing the zenith, it sank back suddenly. Gao Xinxin felt that his eyes were flushed, and the plane was completely overturned!

Gao Xinxin performed a perfect roll before the plane turned into a dive with the sharp reflexes unique to women, and quickly returned from the inverted flight state to the level flight state. What is especially important is that after completing this series of actions, the nose of the aircraft was exactly pointing to the plane. The fuselage of the prey just now.

Less than two hundred meters!

In an instant, a string of tracer bullets came head-on, whistling past the flying cap.

"you lose!"

While roaring, the chain cannon mounted on the nose fired densely woven red lines!

The first round of long bursts knocked down the uninterested machine gunner at the tail, and at the same time pulled back the accelerator to lower the height slightly. When the distance was opened to fifty or sixty meters, the engine aimed at the left inner side fired again. With a string of tracer bombs, black smoke soon appeared on the opposite side.In order to avoid being smoked, she pushed the rudder slightly and swerved to the right side of the enemy plane.

Gao Xinxin aimed at the position of the enemy plane's cab and fired again, then the engine on the right. After firing one of them, he left the attacking position. This was to avoid the oncoming black smoke and debris.

The enemy plane that lost two engines fell quickly in a black arc in the blue sky. Gao Xinxin followed closely above it, ready to make up for it with a few shuttles at any time, until it was clear that the wings on both sides were completely covered by fire. , the remaining two engines also stopped rotating, and then they climbed up with confidence and began to look for new prey...

Eleven of the sixteen U.S. aircraft in the first attack wave were shot down in just a quarter of an hour, nine of which were the result of the [-] Squadron.Lieutenant Gao Xinxin, the deputy squadron leader, took over three planes alone, and the results of the battle were confirmed by the pictures taken by the camera.

The remaining U.S. planes dropped their bombs and fled into the cumulonimbus clouds to the east. The escort fighter jets of the first attack wave did not pursue because of insufficient fuel.

As soon as Gao Zhihang returned to the deck of the Huangshan mothership, he was called to the commander.

"How's the result?" Chen Jinrong asked urgently.

"The other party seemed to have noticed it long ago and fled to the sea. The firepower of the counterattack was extremely fierce, and the evasive maneuvers were decent. The main result this time was to hit a battleship, 2 cruisers, and 2 destroyers."

Chen Jinrong frowned: "I just received a report from Lin Weicheng that the attack on the airport was unsuccessful. Although the airport facilities were bombed, not a single plane was captured."

"Do you want to continue launching the attack wave?"

"What do you think?"

Gao Zhihang made a hand gesture: "When returning to the flight, I found a group of land-based aircraft trailing behind."

"Oh?"

"Of course, it was handed over to the escort fighter jets. It was confirmed that most of them were shot down, and the rest dropped their bombs and ran away. I think the enemy here is quite alert and has a strong sense of attack. Compared with the attack on Pearl Harbor, this operation is a It is carried out without intelligence support, and it is completely impossible to achieve the effect of a surprise attack... Also, until now, due to the weather, the reconnaissance in the east and south is still dark, I am worried..."

"You think you can't destroy the enemy fleet, but you will take advantage of it?" Chen Jinrong asked straightforwardly.

Gao Zhihang took off his flying cap and patted his head in embarrassment: In the final analysis, our mission is not to attack the enemy forces in Panama. What Commander-in-Chief Ye meant should be before the enemy finds out..."

"Are you trying to say that I tampered with the Commander-in-Chief's order?"

"The subordinates don't dare. It's just that they have been alarmed and the enemy's situation is unknown. It's better to complete the mine-laying mission as soon as possible, and go north to join the commander-in-chief and sweep the west coast of the United States together. It's a safe plan."

Chen Jinrong walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, sighed regretfully, and said leisurely: "Go on: first, the third attack wave will be equipped with mines, and start mine-laying operations. Second, generate electricity for the second attack wave in the air, The attack force is divided into two, the torpedo planes continue to search and attack the enemy fleet, and the bomb planes return after bombing the port without delay!"

Before the words were finished, there was a burst of exclamation in the sound transmission tube: "There is a trace of thunder in front of the port side!"

"what!"
