The Mysterious Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 313: Blazing Sky: Fierce Battle with Japanese Army, Destroying the Airport

After the intelligent robots successfully completed their tasks, Lei Tao quickly began to operate them, along with the F-35B fighter jets and other remaining military supplies, and stored them in the Bagua Gyro space. Then, Lei Tao activated the Bagua Gyro space system.

The light and shadows before his eyes shifted wildly, like a chaotic kaleidoscope. After a moment of dizziness, he found himself in the dense jungle that obscured the sun during the Anti-Japanese War. The surroundings were eerily quiet, broken only by the inappropriate chirping of insects and birds. An occasional damp breeze rustled the leaves, whispering the vicissitudes of this land. Lei Tao vigilantly observed his surroundings, every nerve on edge. Once he was sure no one was around, he carefully reactivated the Bagua Gyro space and released his fighter jet.

Lei Tao quickly boarded the plane and sat in the cockpit. The familiar interface came into view. He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and expertly started the engine. The roar instantly shattered the tranquility of the jungle, startling a flock of birds. The plane taxied slowly, then shot into the sky like an arrow, heading towards the Japanese airfield.

As they drew closer to the Japanese airfield, Lei Tao's heartbeat quickened slightly. Finally, they were within range of the air-to-ground missiles. Calming his nerves, he quickly locked onto the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position. It was clearly visible on his screen, with Japanese soldiers patrolling around like ants. He decisively pressed the launcher button.

With a deep roar, the missile, trailing a long tail of flame, streaked towards the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position with great momentum. The missile streaked through the air with a sharp whistling sound, as if announcing the impending doom of the Japanese army. Upon hearing this sound, the Japanese soldiers looked up, their arrogance instantly replaced by terror. They tried to dodge, but it was too late.

The missiles hit their target with pinpoint accuracy, and a deafening explosion echoed. Flames shot up into the sky, and smoke filled the air. The anti-aircraft gun position was instantly engulfed in flames and smoke, and the surrounding Japanese soldiers were blasted to pieces, their flesh and blood flying everywhere, their limbs and arms scattered across the ground. The powerful blast wave impacted everything around them, shaking nearby buildings to the point of collapse.

Then, the Japanese air force base's air defense sirens suddenly blared, their piercing, piercing shrieks piercing the sky like the desperate roar of a wounded beast. The entire airfield erupted in chaos. The Japanese airmen, not even bothering to adjust their uniforms, their shoes slouching askew, rushed toward the Zero fighters. Their faces were etched with anxiety and tension, beads of sweat streamed down their foreheads, and their eyes betrayed a frenzied murderous intent.

Zero fighters slid quickly on the runway, the roar of their engines was deafening, and the exhaust fumes raised clouds of dust on the ground. They rushed into the sky impatiently, trying to shoot down the uninvited guests who entered the airport airspace.

Japanese flight captain Yamamoto shouted orders over the radio, his tone filled with arrogance: "Listen carefully, no matter how powerful this mysterious fighter is, there is only one. Ichiro, Onigiri, you guys circumvent the left wing; Hayabusa and I will advance from the right wing. We must cut off his retreat and force him into an encirclement! The Imperial Japanese Air Force will never tolerate such provocation!"

"Understood!" The pilots responded in unison, their voices filled with enthusiasm and arrogance. Ichiro licked his dry lips and said viciously, "This guy is a coward. When we catch him, we'll make sure he knows the consequences of offending the Empire!"

Several Zero fighters fanned out, closing in on Lei Tao's F-35B. Seeing this, Lei Tao let out a cold smile, his hands flexing the joystick. The F-35B, like a nimble black ghost, instantly rolled sideways, deftly avoiding the Japanese army's initial encirclement.

"What's going on? How come he's so fast!" Fantuan exclaimed, with a hint of panic in his voice.

"Don't panic! Keep chasing! He can't escape!" Yamamoto shouted, trying to calm the troops' morale, but just as he finished speaking, a flash of fire was seen, and a missile was fired from the F-35B, accurately hitting Ichiro's fighter plane.

"Help..." Ichiro's cry for help came to an abrupt end. With a violent explosion, his fighter plane turned into a fireball and the wreckage fell.

"Ichiro!" Everyone's exclamations mingled over the radio. Yamamoto's face turned pale, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Keep attacking! Don't retreat! Onigiri, you swoop down from above; Falcon, follow me and attack from below!"

However, their tactics were completely vulnerable to the F-35B's ultra-high maneuverability and advanced weaponry. Lei Tao quickly pulled up, then flipped vertically, and circled behind Yamamoto and Hayabusa. His machine gun roared, and dense shells poured out like a rainstorm.

"It's over, we're being targeted!" Falcon shouted in despair and tried to evade the attack, but was still hit by a shell. The wing broke and the fighter plane spun out of control and crashed to the ground.

Yamamoto pulled the lever frantically, trying to escape, but Lei Tao would not give him a chance. Another missile was fired, and Yamamoto's fighter plane was instantly engulfed in flames.

At this time, only Fantuan was left in the air. His hands were shaking and his voice was crying: "Please, don't kill me..." But the only response he got was Lei Tao's cold attack order. A missile whizzed away, ending her last struggle.

After resolving the aerial threat, Lei Tao knew he couldn't afford to lose the fight. He immediately lowered his fighter plane to a low-altitude dive toward the Japanese airfield, poised to deliver a fatal blow. The fighter plane flew at breakneck speed, and when it was only 20 meters above the airfield, he decisively pressed the fuel release button. Instantly, a torrent of fuel poured down like a torrential rain onto the runway and surrounding area, creating a vast blanket of fuel.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Tao's hands swiftly manipulated the fighter, instantly executing a classic Cobra maneuver. The nose of the aircraft rapidly lifted, the fuselage almost perpendicular to the ground. The powerful overload pressed Lei Tao's body tightly against the seat, but his eyes were fixed on the front. The fighter then climbed rapidly, then rolled in the air, entering an inverted flight state, and quickly turned around.

Just as Lei Tao was about to launch an incendiary bomb, the fuselage suddenly jolted, and an anti-aircraft shell grazed the wing. It turned out that the Japanese had concealed an anti-aircraft artillery position, taking advantage of Lei Tao's distraction from the aerial battle with the Japanese fighters to launch an ambush. A dense barrage of shells, accompanied by flames and smoke, rained down on the F-35B.

Lei Tao's eyes flashed, his hands rapidly manipulating the joystick. Like a nimble swallow, the fighter jet dove through the hail of bullets. He first jerked the stick to the right, sending the aircraft swerving in a tight radius, avoiding a barrage of incoming shells. Then, he quickly lowered the nose of the plane, keeping it almost close to the ground. A shell exploded not far behind him, sending a gust of wind pounding the aircraft.

But Lei Tao did not panic at all. With his superb driving skills, he looked for opportunities in the gaps between the anti-aircraft gun attacks. He quickly adjusted the angle of the fighter plane, locked onto the hidden anti-aircraft gun position with his backhand, and then dropped a cluster incendiary bomb without hesitation.

Cluster incendiary bombs roared towards the anti-aircraft gun positions. With a loud bang, the bombs exploded in the air, and countless burning bomblets scattered like flowers from the sky. The anti-aircraft gun positions were instantly engulfed in flames, and the Japanese gunners screamed in pain. The position fell into chaos.

After neutralizing the anti-aircraft gun emplacement, Lei Tao's finger firmly pressed the cannon's launch button. An incendiary bomb, trailing a fiery flame, roared toward the area of ​​the airport where the fuel had been released. The bomb landed precisely in the fuel-covered area, and instantly, flames splattered and a raging fire spread rapidly. The fuel ignited, creating a vast sea of ​​fire that instantly engulfed the runway, apron, and surrounding facilities.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, and the heat was overwhelming. The Japanese soldiers at the airport were terrified by the sudden blaze and fled in all directions. The Zero fighters that had not yet taken off were also surrounded by the flames, gradually deforming and burning in the high temperature.

Lei Tao took advantage of the Japanese army's confusion and quickly left the battlefield in his fighter plane. He looked back at the burning Japanese airfield behind him and muttered to himself: "You little devils, you thought this was over, but this is just the beginning."
