Chapter 173: Falling like a cloud

Watch as the expensive C5 Galaxy plane breaks its left wing in two, loses its balance, spins in circles, dives headfirst down, and crashes into a large wheat field. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info first saw a flash of light, then a "rumbling" explosion sounded in his ears, and then he saw a thin, tall mushroom cloud rise from the place where the plane hit.

It was really dangerous, if the plane flew a little further, it would have to plant directly into a small town, and such a violent explosion would probably destroy this quiet place, causing huge casualties on the ground.

The air wave generated after the plane exploded pushed Chen Xu's parachute hundreds of meters away.

Chen Xu admired his wise decision, if he hadn't decisively let everyone skydive, I'm afraid they would have made a barbecue at this time. With an impact of this magnitude, there is absolutely no chance of surviving. Originally, you could have chosen to find a flat ground and make a forced landing, but that would also have a great risk, and a slight pit or stone could cause the plane to be destroyed and killed.

Chen Xu is not worried about the damage caused by the crash of this C5, if it is in the domestic Air Force, it will definitely hurt badly, such a large transport plane is the treasure of the Air Force, how can it not hurt if it becomes a pile of scrap iron. But if it crashes in the United States and it is shot down by an American fighter plane, then it will be fine, because you can file a claim for compensation for another one later.

Moreover, it is believed that this incident of shooting down a visiting military plane of a quasi-ally will become a hot topic in the international community for some time to come, and even turn into a diplomatic disaster, and the face of the US military will be severely trampled on by the news media because of this incident.

"Chief! Are you okay! Not far away, the captain Li Xiaohua was shouting at the top of his voice, although the voice was inaudible, he could still vaguely hear what it meant.

Chen Xu waved his hand, signaling that he was safe, and pointed to the ground, meaning that there was something to wait for everyone to be safe.

The process of the downing of the Galaxy transport plane is clearly shown on the screen of Edwards Air Force Base, the plane suddenly decreases in altitude, and after a while it suddenly pulls up and finally dives down until the altitude reaches zero, it is obvious that the transport plane is evading after being attacked, and finally it is still unable to escape the fate of being shot down.

Seeing the transport plane disappear on the radar screen like this, Major General Fitz was stunned for a while, but the miracle did not happen in the end, the transport plane full of senior Chinese officials was shot down, and the next political storm will affect every official in the base, and even few people in the Ministry of Defense can escape joint and several responsibility.

While Rear Admiral Fitz was in a daze, one of the air traffic controllers shouted: "Parachuted, there were people on the transport plane who parachuted before the crash!" ”

This was like a lifesaver that woke everyone up, and Fitz hurriedly stepped forward to grab the air traffic controller's headset, and contacted the F15 fighter pilot at the scene: "Report the situation, how many people have parachuted!" Whether there were casualties on the ground. ”

"It is impossible to determine the exact number of parachutes, at least about 30 people, the plane crashed into a wheat field on the outskirts of Pluto, and there were no casualties on the ground!" The F15 pilot was very frustrated that he did not save the transport plane at the last moment, and his voice was weak.

More than 30 people parachuted out to make Major General Fitz feel a lot more relieved, even if some people remained on the plane, at least all the important people should have parachuted. In the eyes of the Americans, the high-ranking officials of the red countries are dictators, and they must be the first to flee for their lives in the most dangerous times, at least the important people are still alive, then everything is still salvageable.

In fact, Fitz guessed wrong, the biggest official on the plane was Chen Xu, he was the last to jump off the plane, and he was almost taken by the plane and fell to the ground together.

"Immediately dispatch helicopters and ground troops to inform the local police, firefighters, and National Guards that it is imperative to find every Chinese parachute jumper as quickly as possible and quickly treat the injured." Major General Fitz immediately gave the order to deploy rescue forces.

After hesitating for a moment, Fitz continued to instruct: "Report the matter here to the Pentagon quickly, this matter is no longer qualified for us to manage, and see how the Secretary of Defense and the President explain to the Chinese government." ”

In fact, in the ten or so minutes that Fitz was in control, he had already reported the matter to the Pentagon, and Secretary of Defense Harold, who was eating breakfast, almost choked to death without a mouthful of milk when he heard the secretary's report. As a result, when he returned to his office to inquire about the latest developments, Edwards Air Force Base happened to report that the transport plane had crashed, but some people on board had successfully parachuted, and it would take another half an hour to find out if there were any victims.

Harold only felt a dull pain in his heart, and only after taking the medicine with the help of his secretary did he recover and ask his subordinates to report the situation to the White House.

President Carter, who was exercising in the back garden of the White House, had to return to the Oval Office to deal with the matter, which, if not resolved, could very well affect his re-election as president.

Once anything enters the national processing procedure, the news will spread quickly, and soon the embassy will know about it, and the ambassador will tremble with fright, but he knows that Chen Xu is on the plane, if an important person like Chen Xu dies in the United States, it will really be a diplomatic disaster. The matter must be reported to the imperial capital as soon as possible, and this matter is no longer something that he can handle as an ambassador to the United States.

Just when the governments of China and the United States began to operate around the downing of the transport plane, the two F15s clamped the F4 ghost on the left and the right, controlled it, and through the hood, the two pilots found that the pilot inside was their colleague Davis!

The two F15 pilots were shocked, they really couldn't imagine that their colleague Davis, who was drinking beer together a few days ago, would commit such a serious thing and shoot down a military transport plane from a visiting allied country, which would be sentenced to death by a military court.

"Sir! Davis...... The pilot inside the F4 fighter is Lieutenant Colonel Davis, oh my! Why would it be him. The F15 pilot exclaimed on the radio, reporting to the base on the situation.

Major General Fitz was stunned again, and his mood sank to the bottom again, in fact, he already had a general idea in his heart, knowing that it was the pilot of the base who committed such a big crime, but when the information was confirmed, he still had a feeling of disbelief.

"Escort Lieutenant Colonel Davis back to base, remember to make sure he gets back to base alive, now that the transport plane has crashed, there's no need to shoot him down." Major General Fitz still had compassion, as the director of the base, he knew Davis's situation, knew that he must have something unspeakable, and returned to the base to ask the mastermind behind the scenes, maybe he could atone for his sins and keep his position.

After the F15 pilot got the order, Davis, who gestured on the plane to turn off radio communications, followed back to base.

However, Davis didn't pay attention to it, just sat in the cockpit and stared blankly at the sky and the vast land outside, which was his last attachment to this world, and then he pressed down the joystick and slammed straight into the ground.

In less than five seconds, the plane crashed headlong into the halfway point of a hill.

The pilots on the F15 looked at each other and reported to the base that Davis had committed suicide in the plane, and then was ordered by Major General Fitz to return home, and there was nothing more to do with them.

Chen Xu was still in mid-air at this time, although the F4 had flown far away, but he could still see the pilot driving the fighter jet into the mountain and committing suicide, although this guy shot down the transport plane he was riding, but for the sake of him having the courage to commit suicide, the resentment in his heart disappeared.

Originally, he wanted to concoct this guy well after landing, and Chen Xu, the person who plotted to assassinate him, would never be soft!

Now that the assassin has committed suicide, the mastermind behind it must not want to escape Chen Xu's pursuit, since the other party has started a war, then only one side is completely dead, this kind of secret war can end.

The location of the eldest brother's parachute jump is estimated to be dozens of kilometers away from himself, and the wind is blowing like this, and those who have skydived before don't know where to go, Chen Xu only kept a certain distance from the other two pilots, and the three of them decided to land together.

Chen Xu pointed to the location where the transport plane crashed and motioned for the three of them to land there, on the one hand, rescuers would arrive first at the crash site, and secondly, the surrounding flat wheat fields were very suitable for landing.

When he landed, Chen Xu stepped on the ground very lightly with the help of the wind, and then took off the parachute behind him cleanly, and returned to the ground like a leisurely walk.

The other two colleagues landed in such an elegant posture, the co-pilot did not see the pole clearly, the parachute line hit the wire, fortunately it was an ordinary family wire and the co-pilot untied the umbrella bag in time, the whole person fell from the two-story high air to the gravel road between the wheat fields, Chen Xu heard the howl of this guy from a distance, and it was estimated that his leg was broken.

Captain Li Xiaohua was no better, he fell directly on the mud and fell, and by the time he struggled to get up, he had already become a mud man.

Chen Xu trotted to the position where the co-pilot landed, watching his right foot twist strangely backwards, and the broken calf bone was clearly visible under the skin, no wonder this guy screamed so badly, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "The bone is broken, the more you move, the more painful it is, lie quietly and wait for the rescue to come and fix it for you." ”

Li Xiaohua washed his face in the ditch, dragged his tired steps over, saw the tragic situation of the co-pilot, frowned and said: "I don't know how to say you, I repeatedly reminded you to avoid wires during training, you know that there are tigers in the mountains and prefer to go to the tiger mountains!" ”

"Don't talk about him, he's different! With such a flat wheat field, you don't fall anywhere, but jump into the mud. When was the last time you skydive? "Chen Xu is the same as Li Xiaohua, this guy is covered in mud, if it weren't for the fact that it is winter, he would have to kick him into the ditch and not wash it.

"The last time I skydived was six years ago, in the past years, the state was short of money, the allocation of funds was small, and the training of the air force was one day of fishing and three days of drying nets. It's like now that there are more planes in the Air Force than pilots, it's a pity that such a good plane fell in vain! Li Xiaohua watched with a heartache as his love plane turned into a pile of scrap metal, and his eyes were vaguely moist, after all, a pilot may only be able to fly one type of aircraft in his career, especially a strategic transport aircraft in the army, and the crew is very stable. The newly assigned plane crashed within a few months of its arrival, and it is no wonder that Li Xiaohua is not heartbroken. (To be continued.) )
