"Baga, what's going on?
How can the Chinese bombers fly so high?"
Japanese pilot Sawada Harukami, flying a Type 92 fighter plane, looked at the enemy plane in disbelief as it soared above their heads.
The bombers were able to fly to heights beyond their reach.
There are many pilots who are in the same bad mood as Sawada Harukami.
At the same time, Cho Tokugawa, who received the news at the same time, was furious.
At the same time, he felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
This fear made him sincerely feel ashamed.
First, the cutting-edge monoplane equipped by the Northwest Army had a performance that surpassed the elite of the Army Aviation.
The Type 95 fighter plane, relying on its super speed, still achieved a good record in the face of the superior Japanese aircraft, protecting the ground troops under its wings.
This is even true for the Army Aviation's most advanced Type 95 fighter.
Once those bombers are caught by the Dragon fighter, they will basically not escape death.
The Northwest Air Force's fighter jets are already so advanced, and as the battle lasts longer and longer, the proportion of flying dragons appearing above the battlefield is gradually increasing.
It was hard for Nagatokugawa Yoshitoshi to imagine what a terrible situation it would be once all the Northwest fighters that appeared in front of his eyes turned into Dragon fighters.
It doesn't matter that the Northwest Air Force's fighter planes are advanced, but I didn't expect that the opponent's bombers would be so domineering.
In terms of the opponent's flying height alone, the current Army Air Force could not find a fighter plane that could easily shoot it down.
This means that bombers from the northwest can appear above their heads at will in the future, but they don't know the range of these bombers.
If the range is far enough, it will be tantamount to a disaster for the future Japanese army.
Naga Tokugawa's worries were a little ahead of schedule.
After all, with the strength of Northwest at this time.
Neither has the ability to mass-produce Kunpeng Heavy Bomb.
Nor does it have the strength to have a large amount of equipment.
Both fuel and manufacturing costs are several times higher than other aircraft currently in service in the Northwest.
If it weren't for the amazing reserves of the newly discovered Karamay Oil Field in Xinjiang, Jiang Li wouldn't even dare to use this heavy bombardment formation wantonly.
Although the northwest is a bit remote, fortunately, it is still self-sufficient in strategic materials such as oil and steel.
It turned out that Jiang Li spent a huge price and advocated building a direct railway from Lanzhou to Dihua under extremely difficult conditions.
This moment also proved Jiang Li's foresight.
Otherwise, even if the oil field is discovered over there, there is no way to easily exploit it without railways, let alone to refine hundreds of thousands or millions of tons of crude oil and smoothly transport it to Gansu, Qinghai, and Ningxia. , Shaanxi and other places.
It would also take several years to build the railway after the fact.
In an extremely difficult time like the Anti-Japanese War, how could one afford to wait a few years for machinery imported from the Soviet Union?
Crude steel, and crude oil from Xinjiang.
There are some small and medium-sized iron mines, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this railway is the main artery of the northwest at this time.
Moreover, it is absolutely safe in the rear area, and there is no need to consider the possible invasion of the Japanese for a while.
The scale of the Karamay oil field group is sufficient to meet the recent and even later needs of the northwest.
This also laid the necessary power foundation for the further development of the northwest automobile and aviation industries.
The only thing holding Kunpeng back now is Northwest's refining capabilities.
Refining high-quality aviation fuel is not that simple.
Craftsmanship, technology and skilled technical personnel are indispensable.
Even in the Soviet Union, the production of aviation fuel above 99 was completely blank during the war, and it basically relied on assistance from the United Kingdom and the United States.
At this time, the oil resources in the northwest are already available.
Once the northwest's ability to refine oil is improved, the constraints that restrict Kunpeng's wings will be completely released.
Kunpeng will also soar in the blue sky in the future.
The Japanese anti-aircraft firepower in the area around Honghng Railway Station was fully activated, but most of the firepower, mainly 20 machine guns, could not reach Kunpeng at high altitude.
At this time, Nagatokugawa Yoshitoshi could only hope that the flight altitude of these bombers would affect the accuracy of their bombing.
After all, if the Japanese bombers were to maintain this altitude, the bombing effect could only be described as horrific.

The explosion that shook the train station made Nagatoku Chuan so alert that he fell into the abyss.
As one of the elites of the Northwest Air Force, Kunpeng's lethality was at risk after several explosions.
At such a high altitude, even with a bomb sight, the initial bomb delivery was a lot worse.
However, similar experimental pilots have done it countless times.
Soon, a series of explosions plunged the entire square near the train station into a sea of flames. , a heavy aerial bomb weighing 500 kilograms landed directly next to the train on the platform.
The two long carriages were raised several meters high in the violent explosion.
Then the torn carriage fell heavily.
The huge shock wave even knocked an artillery piece four or five meters away like a piece of paper.
As for the Japanese soldiers nearby who were carrying ordnance, they could no longer find words to describe the fear in their hearts.
"No" Xiquanji Ming, who was responsible for the security of the entire train station, saw several aerial bombs falling not far from the piled shell boxes, with undisguised fear in his eyes.
The roar of detonated artillery shells echoed the sound of aerial bombs.
Nagatokugawa Yoshitoshi, who originally had a trace of luck in his heart, personally witnessed the scene of raining bullets, and knew how ridiculous it was to place hope on the limited bomb capacity of these bombers.
Even the three bombers under his command couldn't catch up.
At this time, Nagatokugawa Yoshitoshi realized why at such a critical juncture, the opponent's first wave of aircraft only had these 19 aircraft.
Because the destructive power caused by the bomber formation in front of us was enough to rival more than sixty ordinary bombers.
In a place like Baoding, such a large-scale bombing was used.
Only then did Chang Tokugawa know how amazing the northwest's handiwork was this time.
The scene near the station was like a disaster.
Many brave soldiers were still trying their best to control the spread of the fire, but more of them were running away with frightened faces.
The logistics department will soon be troubled by the scolding of the frontline combat troops.
However, this is not something that he, the commander of the Aviation Corps, should consider.
What he has to do is to prepare a report and prepare to deal with Juichi Terauchi's accusation after the accident, as well as his accusation to the Imperial Aviation Ministry.
China was a country that the senior officials of the empire did not pay much attention to.
Even after experiencing the tragic Battle of Fengtian and the Great Wall Resistance War, they still did not arouse enough vigilance.
Most of the senior Japanese military officials believed that although the northwest was a great threat, compared with the empire, Up, there is still a huge gap, and at the juncture of an all-out war between China and Japan.
Northwest used practical actions to slap them hard several times.
Northwest not only manufactured its own fighter jets with excellent performance, but also equipped bombers with astonishing destructive power
