Chapter 44: Strangulation in the Air
"Watch out for ...... of anti-aircraft shooting"
In the sky sprinkled in the dust of rockets and bullets. The officers of the Soviet Red Army, with their voices dumbed by the smoke of gunpowder, shouted loudly. In the rear positions, the accordion, which had just been used for entertainment, was thrown into the jet-black crater, the blood on which it seemed to remind every Red Army soldier that they were facing the threat of a high-tech weapon.
In the sky, 100 "tadpoles" that had completed the first wave of attacks were swimming back to their own side of the air carrier. Behind them were blazing tanks and armored vehicles burning in the flames.
In the face of an attack from the sky, the tank divisions of the Red Cavalry Corps, which did not have "tank nannies" and did not pay much attention to air attacks, paid a huge price. The weak armor protection of armored vehicles, as well as the mobility that was absolutely unmatched with air power, gave the Soviet Red Army a big loss in the assault of the Polish Navy.
However, things in war tend to change quickly. This is especially true for those who are not good at timing.
Facing the second wave of "tadpoles" flying in the sky, the kind of land-grabbing attack. The courageous Soviet infantry, under the leadership of the officers, quickly prepared for anti-aircraft fire.
Another attack wave of "tadpoles" from the Polish Navy formed a group of planes in the air, and they flew in groups of three from behind the positions of the Polish Army. It seems to be a row of razors, under a neat formation, with "one", "this", "reading", "Ben
Almost at the same time, light and heavy firepower from the Soviet side, which had been prepared, also opened fire together.
Thousands of rifles and machine guns formed a dense network of anti-aircraft firepower. The pilot, sitting in the cramped cabin of the "tadpole", looked at the flickering and sparkling light on the ground, and couldn't help but be afraid.
They did not expect that the second air strike mission would be almost a suicidal mission.
Fortunately, the "Tadpole" rotorcraft adheres to the characteristics of the humanized design of the products of the "Iron Wing Company". In addition to the bathtub-shaped composite armor that can withstand 7.62 mm bullets, the key points of the "tadpole" itself are also closely protected by armor.
In addition, the Soviet Red Army, which had always occupied air superiority, really did not pay much attention to anti-aircraft shooting.
Therefore, although these "tadpoles" were fired by ground rifle fire when they flew through the sky, the blows flashed with the light they had when they were hit. But most of the "tadpoles" can take to the skies unscathed after pouring their own ammunition.
Some of the "tadpoles" in the second attack wave were not as lucky as their companions who attacked the previous wave and made a surprise attack. 12.7 mm machine gun bullets easily pierced the armor of the "Tadpole" and even tore the fuselage of the "Tadpole".
The propulsive engine of the gyroplane, under such a blow, emitted billowing black smoke. Fortunately, in the cockpit of the "Tadpole", there was no need to transport oil to the overhead rotors. So, despite the black smoke coming out of the engine and fuel tanks, the driver in the cabin was not really threatened.
In this case, the pilot of the "Tadpole" aircraft, while trying his best to raise the nose of the aircraft, pulled down the "escape handle". This is the most humanized design on the "tadpole" machine. When the engine catches fire or is completely out of control, moving the "escape handle" can separate the cockpit of the Tadpole gyroplane from the fuselage and rotors.
A small rocket engine that pushes the cockpit of the gyroplane outward. The forced parachute opening cable attached to the original fuselage will quickly pull the parachute after the cockpit flies away, so that the pilot of the gyroplane can land safely.
Incidentally, this life-saving measure is used in helicopters, which are completely out of the box due to the fuel supply to the lifting propeller and the complex speed change mechanism.
At this time, in the eyes of the Polish pilots, something extremely unchivalrous appeared. The ground firepower of the Soviet Red Army, especially those using rifles, turned to attack the escape pilots who were floating in the air and had no way to dodge them, when they did not have the ability to effectively hit the "tadpole" planes that were grazing the ground at high speed.
As the hail of bullets approached, the Polish pilots writhed their bodies in the air, shouting for one last time their Almighty God.
There is no mercy on the battlefield, just as in Moscow there is no belief in tears. Blood and flying shrapnel compose the most loyal and courageous scene of soldiers on both sides on the battlefield.
As the battle continued, commanders on both sides began to deploy themselves at high speed.
On the part of the Soviet Red Army, the aircraft group with the "Saber ABZ" as the main force quickly rushed to the battlefield with a large number of retaliatory aircraft composed of fighters such as "Camel" and "Newburg" obtained from the battlefield of the civil war.
As for the Polish Navy, since the goal of deterring the ground armored forces of the Soviet Red Army has been achieved, there is no need to consume it any longer. Moreover, the limited supply of the "air carrier" also limited the combat time of the "Tadpole" armed rotary-wing aircraft.
Therefore, the fleet of "air carriers", having achieved their operational objectives, began to leave the battlefield.
Of the fighters of the Soviet Red Army rushing to the battlefield, only the first part to arrive was fortunate enough to participate in the attack on the "air carriers". During the magnificent air battle, the fighter pilots of the Soviet Red Army were surprised to find that these "air carriers" were loaded with several old "anti-aircraft modules" of twin 12.7mm machine guns. Moreover, the "Saber ABZ" without naval guns is not a good way to effectively strike at these "air carriers" that use helium.
In the end, the pursuit ended with the loss of 25 aircraft by the Soviet Red Army and the shooting down of 3 air carriers on the Polish side.

————————————————————————————————————— was served, and the offensive of the Soviet Red Army, with the cavalry corps as the spearhead, was temporarily stopped. The two sides of the "Polish-Soviet war" had to temporarily stand still because of the attrition and losses of the war. Heavy tank divisions with wheeled tanks suffered heavy losses due to the special care of the "Tadpole" pilots. The Soviet side had to replenish sufficient equipment for the main force of the attack, the "Cavalry Army".
Due to the lack of production capacity in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Russia had to turn its attention to the Chinese Federation, the world's largest arms dealer.
After all, as the world's largest arms dealer, the Chinese Federation does not pay much attention to ideology, compared to the hostility formed by different ideologies in Europe, and most of them are concerned about small things such as price. Now the Soviet government is worried about only one thing: whether the Chinese Federation will completely cut off arms deals with the Soviet Union because of the previous "assassination operation."
In addition to the "air carriers" such as the Polish ones, the huge procurement list issued by the Soviet Red Army also included a considerable number of "Sabre-A" fighters equipped with naval guns.
In addition, another request made by the Soviet side was to purchase 150 large civilian airships produced by the Chinese Federation. Obviously, the Soviet side, under the condition of underdeveloped transportation, hoped to use these airships to form a large and convenient dual-use transportation system like the Chinese Federation.
The Polish side, which was already weak in attack on land, naturally took advantage of this time to work harder to build a solid position to resist the more fierce attacks that the Soviet Red Army would launch in the future.
As a hostile party to the Soviet Union, like the Soviet government, the head of state of Poland - Joseph. Pilsudski was now struggling to secure more money from parliament because of the adversities of the war. As a result of the previous success, the Polish Navy decided to purchase more "air carriers" and "tadpoles" armed rotary-wing aircraft again to augment their already weak naval, army, and air forces.
At the same time, because of the good adaptability of the gyroplane, the low cost and the simplicity of pilot training. It was decided to purchase more Tadpole armed rotorcraft to equip the Navy with a small reconnaissance/attack air unit to enhance the combat capability of the infantry.
As for the Air Force, when the "air carrier" left the battlefield on the previous occasion, the downed "air carrier" regained its combat capability after replacing some of its skin and equipment. Fortunately for the Polish government, the Soviet fighters, who were committed to attacking the "air carriers" at that time, did not bother to attack the "tadpoles" armed rotorcraft that were desperately fleeing. So that the "air fleet" on the part of the Polish Navy did not receive any substantial blows.
Despite this, the Polish government recognized the importance of air power in time to have adequate protection, at least in the event of the withdrawal of the "air carriers". For some reason, in addition to purchasing another 15 "air carriers" and supporting equipment, another 100 "Saber ABZ" fighters have been purchased as equipment for the Air Force.
At the time of the stalemate in the "Polish-Soviet War", the two countries sent high-level envoys to the Chinese Federation, hoping to obtain the equipment they needed to launch an offensive in the shortest possible time.
This is what was said earlier, the meeting of the Chinese Federation has already decided the course of the "Polish-Soviet war" in a sense.
However, when they arrived at the island, they were delayed by the following news.
"Mike. President Lang led the country's major generals to inspect the federal military base......"
