Guo Yingwu had no idea what impact his unintentional actions would have on the special forces brigade's future operations.

He didn't think much about it and quickly recalled the assault squad. Yan Gaofei, after getting on the plane, showed no signs of dejection from the crash.

He believed that using a single squad to break through and disrupt the Japanese aircraft formation taking off from Guangzhou was worth it, even if it meant sacrificing himself.

Not to mention, he was now standing safely inside the seaplane, watching his comrades rush ashore to annihilate the Japanese who had dared to fire at him.

Yan Gaofei cheered loudly for Zheng Tianhe and the others. If Mao Wenxing hadn't ordered them to immediately search for Jin Tieyu in the open sea, Yan Gaofei would have wanted the assault squad to go to another shore and beat up the Japanese who were being bombed.

Hearing that another comrade had crashed and bailed out, both Guo Yingwu and Yan Gaofei became anxious, ordering the plane to turn around immediately and taxi along the river towards the open sea.

Mao Wenxing had just said that Jin Tieyu reported that he had parachuted in sea area number sixty-seven, which was quite a distance from their current location.

Guo Yingwu had already accelerated the seaplane and was preparing for takeoff, intending to fly to sea area sixty-seven.

For maritime rescue experience, none of the soldiers in the special forces brigade had any. In fact, this was the first rescue of its kind.

The commander of the Japanese garrison at Humen Fortress, Shiraishi Taiichi, was so angry when he saw this scene that he spat out a mouthful of blood. He had been holding back for a long time, but finally couldn't suppress it any longer.

He had always believed that Yan Gaofei, who had fallen into the river, was a big shot in the special forces brigade and had made two preparations.

He didn't expect that the first speedboat sent to capture him was sunk, and the second team, led by Jinnai Akiharu, was trapped on the shore and didn't dare to go into the water at all.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan and sent an infantry company to track along the riverbank, thinking that they would eventually capture the person.

He didn't expect the special forces brigade to play by different rules, openly taking advantage of the fact that all the artillery batteries of Humen Fortress had been destroyed and no fortress guns could be fired.

They actually sent a seaplane to brazenly rescue people in the waters in front of the fortress.

Seeing that the important figure who was already in their grasp was being rescued, Commander Shiraishi Taiichi's already bleeding heart felt even worse. As a result, that seaplane didn't just rescue the person and leave.

Instead, it sent a small team ashore and annihilated the infantry company he had sent to track them.

A full infantry company was actually landed on by a team of thirty or so people and annihilated. This made Commander Shiraishi Taiichi unable to hold back any longer, spitting blood, collapsing to the ground, and passing out.

None of the airmen in the special forces brigade knew about Shiraishi Taiichi spitting blood. Guo Yingwu, Yan Gaofei, and the others were now fully focused on searching for Jin Tieyu, who had parachuted into the sea.

Jin Tieyu was also a fighter pilot. He was with Captain Guan Guohao's squadron, responsible for intercepting Japanese fighters flying in from the sea.

They needed to intercept over a large area, so the entire flying squadron was spread out.

Captain Guan Guohao could hear the battle reports from each captain, but the pilots in his squadron didn't know the overall situation of the battlefield.

The battle had been going on for half an hour, and his squadron hadn't encountered any Japanese fighters yet. Despite this, Guan Guohao didn't dare to let his guard down. He knew how much damage it would cause to the bomber squadrons that were bombing the Japanese Fifth Fleet if Japanese fighters broke through into the inner circle.

Just as he ordered his pilots once again to keep their eyes peeled and not let any Japanese planes pass,

Jin Tieyu, who was patrolling in a fighter along the coast, suddenly reported that he had spotted a large formation of enemy aircraft in the southwest direction, roughly estimated at over thirty.

He was the first to spot the Japanese fighter group flying in from Bay Bay. Squadron Commander Kitakaze Fubuki was on duty at Taoyuan Airport, and today was a relaxed day with no training plans.

However, Admiral Saltazawa Koichi, commander of the Fifth Fleet, personally issued the order to dispatch them: "The Fifth Fleet is under attack at Humen Port. All aircraft at the airport are to proceed to reinforce immediately."

Although Squadron Commander Kitakaze Fubuki received the order without any further details, he instinctively felt that the Fifth Fleet was in serious trouble.

Because it believed that ordinary attacks could be intercepted by the anti-aircraft fire on the ships of the Fifth Fleet, not to mention the many fighters of the First and Second Carrier Divisions that were with the Fifth Fleet.

With this in mind, he immediately ordered: "Kitakaze Air Group, all units launch!" At the same time, he reported his speculations to his superiors, requesting that all aircraft on the entire island take off to reinforce the Fifth Fleet.

Squadron Commander Kitakaze Fubuki didn't know whether his suggestion was accepted or not, as he had already led the entire air group to depart.

Before this air group even reached Humen, they saw a fighter plane flying in the clouds ahead, clearly not an Imperial aircraft.

Without the slightest hesitation, Squadron Commander Kitakaze Fubuki immediately ordered the entire group to attack that fighter plane.

When Jin Tieyu spotted the Japanese aircraft formation, he was also spotted by the Japanese. He reported his position to Captain Guan Guohao and turned to the left, trying to distance himself from the Japanese formation.

Jin Tieyu knew that his comrades would arrive in a few minutes and that he didn't need to engage the Japanese head-on.

However, the Japanese from the Kitakaze Squadron, having just spotted their target, clearly didn't want to easily give up this prey, and a dozen planes surrounded him from several directions.

Seeing the Japanese's movements, Jin Tieyu knew that he couldn't escape. Since he couldn't avoid it, then he would fight!

Surrounded by the Japanese, Jin Tieyu adjusted the direction of his fighter. He flew straight towards the two Japanese fighters in front.

With the enemy planes eight hundred meters away, the Japanese machine guns were already firing. Jin Tieyu didn't return fire, still steadily flying his fighter, determinedly towards the Japanese plane.

His hand hovered over the machine cannon firing button, seven hundred meters, six hundred meters, five hundred meters, the cannon always aimed at the Japanese plane's nose.

Jin Tieyu's finger pressed down lightly: "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of shells flew out, instantly reaching the enemy plane. The sound of the "boom! boom!" explosions couldn't be heard inside the cockpit.

However, the visual effect of the shells exploding and the enemy plane bursting open like fireworks could be seen very clearly.

A Japanese fighter exploded in mid-air, scaring the other enemy plane next to it. Pilot Nagatomi Saburo saw that the special forces brigade fighter he was facing was equipped with cannons.

Just one shot destroyed his wingman, Ueno Takumi, who was attacking with him. He was so scared that he quickly turned to the left, wanting to avoid the head-on attack and save his life first.

At this time, Jin Tieyu's fighter was also taking fire from the Japanese fighters on its flank. He didn't make any large evasive maneuvers, only slightly turning to the right, still locking onto another Japanese fighter opposite him, and lightly pressing the cannon button.

Another series of shells flew out. Jin Tieyu didn't even realize that in this battle with the Japanese planes, he hadn't fired a single machine gun bullet, and had been using the cannons the entire time.

There was no other reason. A single shell hit was enough to bring down a Japanese plane. The drawback was that the number of shells carried by the fighter was limited and couldn't support this kind of firing for long.

This drawback was completely meaningless to Jin Tieyu now, because he was currently surrounded by the Japanese. If he didn't act faster, he would be shot down by the Japanese before he could use up all his shells.

"Second one! Brothers! I've already shot down two Japanese fighters!" Having shot down two enemy planes so quickly, Guan Guohao immediately understood his situation.

If he wasn't surrounded by Japanese planes, how could this have happened. Guan Guohao loudly ordered: "Jin Tieyu! Retreat! Retreat!"

Jin Tieyu said, "Captain! I can't retreat! I'll take down one more!"

"Immediately descend to a lower altitude and fly towards the rescue area! That's an order!" Guan Guohao immediately changed his order.

"Yes!" Jin Tieyu received the order and immediately dived downward.

For a fighter plane, this was the normal reaction when attacked. Initially, when Jin Tieyu was being strafed by the Japanese on his flank, he didn't dodge or evade at all in order to shoot down the two enemy planes in front.

Now, suddenly descending made pilot Inoue Kiyota, who was firing fiercely from behind him, unable to react. However, for Inoue Kiyota, who had been through many battles, even though his brain hadn't reacted,

The actions of his hands were like a conditioned reflex, tightly following the plane in front. Hearing Inoue Kiyota's report, Japanese Air Group Commander Kitakaze Fubuki immediately ordered: "You take two planes and continue the pursuit, the rest of the fighters maintain their target and advance towards Humen Fortress!"

Squadron Commander Kitakaze Fubuki knew what the main task of his team was and couldn't let a single fighter from the special forces brigade hold them back here.

Jin Tieyu's fighter suddenly began to dive, immediately breaking free from the situation where he was constantly being hit. But the danger hadn't been eliminated. Most of the dozen or so fighters that had surrounded him had flown away.

Three fighters were still closely following behind him. These three fighters were like chewing gum, sticking to him. He had almost turned the plane's downward dive into a straight downward plunge, but the enemy planes were still following him.

Inoue Kiyota didn't dare to make such dangerous maneuvers as the plane in front, but he had three planes on his side, three against one, as long as he kept up with the other side, he wasn't afraid of him getting away.

And the fighter in front had already been hit by so many bullets and was already secretly damaged. This kind of high-intensity maneuver couldn't last long, and if he continued to dive like this, he would crash directly.

Jin Tieyu could already feel that the plane was becoming somewhat unresponsive, and seeing the sea getting closer and closer, he had no choice but to pull the plane up, trying to climb back into the air.

This maneuver was a bit like a cobra suddenly raising its head from the ground when it encountered danger.

The engine made a muffled sound, and the tremendous thrust tried to push the plane into the air. Watching himself fly higher than the three enemy planes,

Jin Tieyu controlled the plane to level out, turned around, and once again charged towards the three Japanese fighters.

He wasn't the kind of pilot that Guan Guohao was, who had been selected from the start. Jin Tieyu, like Xiao Jianying and the others, was originally just an infantryman in the special forces brigade. He had long since learned the special forces brigade's style of liking close combat with the Japanese.

He also liked to engage in head-on dogfights with the Japanese while flying a fighter, even though the situation was one against three, he still charged forward.

Pilot Inoue Kiyota was now the temporary commander of the three planes. Seeing the fighter they were chasing actually turn around and charge towards them,

He immediately ordered: "Kuki Taro, Tsuruta Norito, push straight through, we have three fighters, no need to be afraid!"

Although that was the order he gave, having personally witnessed the scene of Ueno Takumi's destruction, he wouldn't charge to the front.

So the three fighters flew forward in a triangular formation, with Kuki Taro and Tsuruta Norito in the front, and Inoue Kiyota in the back.

Inoue Kiyota also intentionally flew at a higher altitude, not on the same plane as the two fighters in front. This way, no matter how the opposing fighter attacked, they would only be able to take hits.

Looking at the Japanese planes, Jin Tieyu thought that the Japanese were very cunning, using two planes as cannon fodder, with one plane at a high altitude, clearly intending to snipe him.

He didn't hesitate and did exactly what Inoue Kiyota expected: he adjusted the fighter's altitude and flew head-on towards the two Japanese fighters.

Jin Tieyu's thinking was very simple: hit the many, not the few!

He wanted to take down the two enemy planes first, and then figure out how to take down the last enemy plane.

Both sides flew towards each other, the speed was very fast. Still a thousand meters away, Kuki Taro and Tsuruta Norito started pressing the firing button and the machine guns began to fire.

This time, Jin Tieyu was silent and didn't fire, just like before. He was like an assassin, only firing a fatal shot at the most appropriate time.

When he fired his cannons, a few shells flew out in quick succession, and Kuki Taro's fighter instantly turned into a ball of fire and exploded in the air.

This time he really became a ghost, his entire body and the plane shattered into pieces.

Tsuruta Norito widened his mouth in surprise. It was at this moment that he realized that the opposing fighter actually had cannons!

This was too unfair! We're still using machine guns, and they've already started using cannons!

Jin Tieyu blew up a Japanese fighter. The plane only turned slightly before opening fire on another Japanese plane.

At this time, Inoue Kiyota, who had the advantage of height, was firing again. He was also afraid: this fighter was too fierce, and had already shot down four fighters today.

At the same time, he was also resentful: "They're using cannons, and we're using guns. Are the factories of the Empire eating shit? The weapon gap is so big. How can we fight?

If my plane also had cannons, this fighter would have been blown up long ago!"

With these thoughts in mind, Inoue Kiyota didn't hesitate at all. The previous Kuki Taro and Tsuruta Norito were just a trap set for the other side. This was an open conspiracy.

It was to use two fighters to exchange for one of his fighters. The other side had no reason to refuse.

After shooting down two Japanese fighters, Jin Tieyu loudly reported: "Fourth plane! I've shot down the fourth plane and am currently engaged with the fifth Japanese plane."

The shells on his fighter had run out, and all he could use now were machine gun bullets. Jin Tieyu maneuvered his fighter towards the last Japanese plane.

Inoue Kiyota was flying his plane at a high altitude and firing down very comfortably. Most of the bullets fired from his fighter hit their target.

However, to his surprise, the other side should have quickly descended to dodge the bullets. But instead, they charged towards his plane through the hail of bullets.

Was he not afraid of death?

Inoue Kiyota became a little flustered. He had already seen from the other side's firm gaze that the opposing pilot was really not afraid of death.

But he was afraid, otherwise he wouldn't have kept it secret from Kuki Taro and Tsuruta Norito and used their two planes to set a trap.

Watching the badly damaged fighter crashing towards him, Inoue Kiyota quickly turned to the right and frantically pulled up the control stick, trying to get the plane to climb higher and get away from the crazy pilot's head-on attack.

Then he would lock onto his tail. Inoue Kiyota knew that even if he didn't fire, the other plane wouldn't last five minutes before crashing.

He didn't want to be injured along with his opponent! Inoue Kiyota tried to control the fighter to climb upwards, and out of the corner of his eye, he could see the two planes passing by each other, so close.

His plane was just a little higher than the other, perfectly avoiding the result of crashing together and being smashed to pieces.

However, before Inoue Kiyota could even be happy, the plane suddenly began to shake violently, and a squeaking sound came from under the belly of the plane.

For pilots like him sitting in the cockpit, the entire plane was surrounded by the engine's huge noise. This sound was transmitted from the seat through the bones to the heart, making Inoue Kiyota feel terrified: What was going on?

Jin Tieyu originally wanted to destroy the Japanese plane along with his own. His fighter had taken too many machine gun bullets and was no longer able to continue fighting.

He had already made up his mind to take down the fifth enemy plane, but because the plane was severely damaged, the engine didn't have enough thrust, and he only barely missed colliding with the Japanese plane.

Just as he was filled with disappointment, there was a sudden jolt from the tail of the plane, as if something had gotten hooked on it.

Surprised, Jin Tieyu looked back to check the situation and suddenly discovered that his plane's tail rudder had actually split the Japanese fighter from head to tail like a scalpel.

However, his tail rudder was now also broken, and the entire plane could no longer maintain its balance and began to swerve and spin.

Jin Tieyu loudly reported: "Fifth plane! Reporting, Captain! I shot down the fifth Japanese plane. My fighter is severely damaged and I'm preparing to bail out!

I've already bailed out, approximately in sea area sixty-seven! I'm descending towards the sea."

Guan Guohao loudly asked: "Jin Tieyu! Jin Tieyu! Report your position!"

No one answered!
