815 reconnaissance aircraft took off
"I'm afraid it's difficult for Wei to agree to the demand for compensation." Zhang Liang thought for a while and said.
"Even if it's hard to agree, you have to agree, and the army of widows won't take the initiative to stop." Han Shu said.
"It's okay if you don't fight. However, the widows should occupy more land of Wei. Han Shu continued. And Zhang Liang on the side felt sweaty after hearing this. He believes that the queen faces the temptation of profit. Somewhat hot-headed. Lost calm sanity to control. This practice of pursuing profits. Zhang Liang felt very worried.
The dialogue between South Korea's monarchs and ministers has confirmed that South Korea is narrowing their expectations of strategic goals. This narrowing of expectations for strategic objectives is also in line with the current situation in South Korea. This situation is also very adaptable to South Korea. The state of Qin did not want a strong country to appear by its side.
If you are too strong all of a sudden, it will not be good. At the same time, how do the surrounding countries look. That's a problem too. Therefore, what South Korea can do now is to show weakness. Take the initiative to show weakness. It was a sign of weakness to the Qin State. For other countries, the achievable goals should also be as small as possible in the need for strategic objectives.
The battlefield shifted to the situation in the north, and the situation in the north began to become delicate.
The weather in the morning was grey. The fire of the Qi people has been extinguished. It's not so much extinguishing as burning. The entire battlefield was filled with smoke. The soldier felt that it was no different than usual.
They ate breakfast. Damn canned and canned cookies. In order not to let the morale have a bigger blow. The food of the officers is the same as that of the soldiers. But they make a little difference, and they can get a little bit of canned fruit.
Still, the officers do not eat themselves. They'll do something else.
"Divide the cans." A lieutenant said to his orderly.
"But, sir. This is especially for you. The orderly said.
"I know that. But this did nothing to restore the soldiers and raise their morale. On the contrary, what will they think of their officers. The lieutenant said.
"Alright. Give them a break. The lieutenant said.
"Yes, sir." The orderly saluted helplessly.
"In battlefield conditions, salutes are forbidden. And besides, in the army, didn't the officers tell you? As long as it is armed. You can skip the salute. The lieutenant said with a serious face.
"I've forgotten a little." The orderly said.
"Well, remember, don't do it again." The lieutenant said.
"Yes, sir." The orderly turned to leave.
Subsequently, the lieutenant began his work. He began to inspect various local posts non-stop. Periscopes through the front line. He inspected the situation on the positions of the Qi army.
"How? Is there any movement in the Qi army? The lieutenant asked.
"No, sir." A corporal replied.
"Yes. Didn't there be any movement when the Qi army retreated? The lieutenant asked.
"Nope. Nothing. The fire burned them enough. Who knows, what will happen to them today. The corporal replied.
"Yes. There's nothing wrong with being cautious. The lieutenant said.
"Although the ammunition depot of the Qi army was burned. However, our situation is still not optimistic. The lieutenant said.
"We're still in an encirclement, and those damn Qi people are going to keep firing at us. Then the night sent their men to come secretly and give us a moment. The corporal said. And the lieutenant heard such words. He looked back at the corporal.
"Yes, that's all we can do." The lieutenant said.
"Trust me, our reinforcements will arrive soon." The lieutenant encouraged the corporal to say. He understands that the situation is not good. The corporal is one of the backbone of the ranks of the soldiers of an army. The corporal had such an idea. Then think about how serious the situation is.
"Yes, sir." The corporal said with a calm face. Naturally, the soldiers complained in one way or another. This kind of passive bombing is easy to make people break down psychologically.
On the side of the Qi army. Their ammunition depots are in shambles. Soldiers are carefully cleaning their ammunition depots.
"Carry these damn shredded corpses away." A Qi officer pointed to a piece of corpse that had only been blown up with his upper body with his boot and said. The explosion was followed by a fire. The fire charred the corpses a lot. However, some blood and internal organs continued to flow out of the shattered corpse. Plus those burnt black stuff. The corpse looked disgusting. The officer turned his face away in disgust, covered his mouth and nose and left.
The soldiers behind him were disgusted and stepped forward to clean up the things. They felt that the stool was much cleaner than the corpse.
There was also smoke from the ammunition depot. There was a dark patch everywhere on the ground. It's all burnt marks. These traces prove. There was once a fire here.
"Be careful." A junior officer of the Qi army shouted loudly. They were ordered to deal with the aftermath of the ammunition depot. However, it is a chore for them.
The officer reminded the soldiers to be careful to avoid areas where smoke was still smoking. There were dark fires in those places, and although there was smoke, the temperature under the smoke was extremely high. Moreover, there is ammunition underneath. Bullet. Cannonball. And those damn explosives. Who knows what will happen.
Even so, such work is difficult to carry out. Because there are many situations that these soldiers are not able to solve. Even the professionally trained engineer units of the Qin army would find it difficult for them to solve such a problem. Because the whole scene looks very troublesome. The bombed ammunition was everywhere. Plus the presence of dark fire. This makes it difficult to get the job done.
Just after the officer shouted loudly.
"Boom." A huge explosion was heard. Behind the officer, a dark spot with no smoke exploded. The moment of the explosion, the officer was torn to pieces. Unlucky were the two soldiers next to him, who were thrown to the ground. Or was pushed far away.
"Get down." One of the Qi soldiers shouted loudly. It's almost a conscious act. The soldiers of the Qi army all honestly lay on the ground and did not move.
The officer's body was blown up everywhere. And the soldiers can't take care of this anymore. After the explosion, they quickly got up and ran towards the back. They were afraid of innocent injuries from the remaining explosions.
"Bang." One bullet was ignited by the high temperature. Bullets flew out.
"Ahh One of the hapless eggs was hit.
"Help me. I was hit. A Qi soldier shouted loudly.
"You can do it. A single bullet is hit by you. One of his companions heard the shouts and quickly ran back. Then dragged him away quickly.
"Ahh My leg. The soldier shouted loudly.
"Forget it. I owe you. So saying, the soldier picked him up. Retreat quickly to the rear.
It was at this time. "Bang bang bang. Bang bang bang. The voice kept coming. A whole box of bullets was ignited. Bullets began to fire their bullets.
"Woo. Whining. Sou. "Bullets flew past the soldier.
"Whoosh." A bullet then flew in.
"Hmm." The soldier carrying the wounded soldier on his back snorted. Then his chest began to glow with red blood.
"What's wrong?" The wounded soldier felt something strange. Because he felt something fly over his body. Due to the weight of the body. The soldier was carrying the wounded soldier back. But. That's how the wounded soldiers were carried. His back was completely exposed. That's when the bullets come in. It went straight into the soldier's body.
"No... No... What the. As he spoke, the soldier vomited blood from his mouth and fell to the ground.
"Help. Help us. The soldier cried out as he fell to the ground.
"Help us." The soldier shouted. But everyone else retreated to safety. No one is going to rescue two unlucky guys.
And the high-ranking officers of the Qi army did not care at all about such a thing happening. After they learned that their ammunition depot had exploded. Everyone was shocked. Then there is helplessness. And then there's infinite melancholy.
In the high-level military camp of the State of Qi. All the generals were silent. It was unusually quiet in the venue. The silence could be heard as the officers sighed. and their breathing. They are well aware of what is going on. Their hoarding of ammunition is finished. The next battle will be difficult to fight. At the very least, they lacked a lot of ammunition to fight.
There is no need to continue a war without ammunition. Some generals think. Qi Jun should wave his hand at this. Take the opportunity to expand north first. Instead of stopping at this place and doing nothing. There are not a few generals of the Qi army who have such thoughts. However, the reality is. It is becoming more and more difficult for supplies from the rear to reach the front. And the things that are consumed are getting bigger and bigger. Whether Qi can continue to fight is still a question.
The Qi army has entered a dilemma. As for what the generals of the Qi people think. Qin Jun didn't have the time to think about this, what they wanted to know was. When will his situation change?
And on the temporary airfield where the Qin army was advancing eighty miles away. An aircraft of special modification is being refueled.
"Your mission is to scout and take pictures, and everything else is left alone." A major of the Qin Army Heavenly Army gave an order to a lieutenant and said.
"Yes, sir." The lieutenant replied.
"Take a closer look at the map. See what's going on. "The major explained as much as possible what the pilot should be aware of before takeoff.
"We're always going to fly at a hundred and fifty degree angle, aren't we?" The lieutenant asked.
"Yes. This coordinate has already told you. See that little river on the map? Just see that little river. It's enough to fly a few miles further. The Major asked.
"Do I have enough fuel for my plane?" The lieutenant asked.
"Yes. Enough for you to fly back and forth. However, don't get too close to the ground. The Qi army can use their rifles to shoot you down. Your main mission is to take pictures, scout, and just get the photos back. The major replied.
"Yes. Got it. The lieutenant said, looking at the map.
"Yes. Now get ready for takeoff. The major said.
"Is the plane ready?" The Major said to the ground crew as they refueled.
"That's it. Ready to take off. The ground crew was removing their ladder and shouted loudly.
"Alright. Get ready. The Major said, leaving.
The pilot walked towards the plane with a parachute on his back. Ground staff guide pilots into their own aircraft cockpit. Then fasten your seatbelt. And the pilot was intently studying his flight path.
And on the tower. A lieutenant colonel of the Celestial Army is watching what is happening at the airfield.
"Is everything ready?" The lieutenant colonel took the binoculars and looked at the plane that had taken off accurately.
"It should be ready." The captain's staff officer on the side replied.
"Yes." The lieutenant colonel just nodded. And then nothing was said. In order to restore communication with the besieged Qin army as soon as possible. The Qin army's staff sent a telegram to this side like crazy. Constant demands to do everything possible to regain contact with the besieged Qin army. In desperation, the Qin Heavenly Army could only take corresponding measures to solve this problem.
At the cost of the loss of one airship by the Qin army, the Celestial Army obtained the specific coordinates of the besieged Qin army and the route map. But. Reconnaissance activities are necessary for sustained and effective fire support.
This is the unanimous idea of all officers of the Celestial Army.
"Fire support was carried out without any reconnaissance photos and no specific circumstances. I believe that this is extremely inappropriate and irresponsible. So, we should conduct a reconnaissance operation. Then we can send a smaller bombing force on a bombing mission. A lieutenant suggested at a previous meeting.
Many officers agreed with this approach. Despite the urging from above, the commanders of the front did not immediately send planes to carry out the mission in order to resist the order. Of course, some officers found a lot of reasons. Like what. weather reasons and so on. This also left the Qin army's staff without any means.
"How's the weather?" The lieutenant colonel asked suddenly.
"The weather conditions were cloudy. The wind is not very strong, but the flight is somewhat difficult. Sir. A second lieutenant meteorological officer replied.
"Yes. It's a bit bad for us to take pictures. Even if it is unfavorable, we have to seize the limited opportunity to carry out this mission, and the time of besieging the Qin army is a little too long. The lieutenant said to himself.
And the meteorological lieutenant did not care about this in the slightest. Because he only provides meteorological analysis data. As for the rest, the commander needs to make a specific analysis. Then make a judgment.
"Boom. Rumble. Rumble. "The loud roar of aircraft engines sounded. The aircraft were reconnaissance aircraft of both sides. The reconnaissance plane did not carry any weapons on board. The original two-seater cockpit was removed from one. Which one is removed is filled with fuel. to ensure that the pilot can fly back and forth. Originally, the ground technicians planned to install temporary oil drums on both wings of the aircraft. But with security in mind. And it wasn't installed. Once the plane hits the fuel tank. There is a high probability that there will be an explosion in the air, for safety reasons. Finally, the ground technician removed the fuel tank from the aircraft. In order to ensure that the aircraft can fly back smoothly and safely.
There was no specially installed camera machinery on the plane. Pilots need to do it manually. In fact, the reconnaissance photos of the Qin State were all taken in this way. A small part of the Qin army was once equipped with this kind of mechanical equipment. Mainly used by the Marine Corps. The equipment was mainly used in the south. Because the Navy can cover this part of the cost. Purchasing a set of equipment and installing it is very costly and labor-intensive. So, for these reasons. Most of the Qin army's air force still chose to take manual photographs for photo reconnaissance. Manual photography tests the pilot's photographic skills. But this is more difficult for the Qin army's ground interpreters. Because of the speed of the plane. Half of the photos taken are blurry. So, it takes a long time to take pictures to work. At the same time, multiple sorties are required to complete a reconnaissance mission. And then according to these, the corresponding aircraft can be dispatched to carry out the plan.
But if it was an airship that took pictures. Then the effect of the airship is the best. But the speed of the airship is slow. High requirements for weather conditions. A little bad weather will make the airship unable to fly. What's more, most of the military airships currently used by the Qin army are military airships that have been directly modified from commercial airships. This airship itself has not flown in bad weather. So, such a task just falls on the plane.
"You can take off." A ground crew member shouted loudly. However, the huge roar of the plane still made it impossible for the pilot to hear. Ground staff generally make a gesture to tell each other.
Ground crew, waving arms. Then quickly squat down with your arms pointing forward. At this time, the pilot nodded slightly. Indicates that you know. Understand.
"Boom, boom." At this time, the plane began to slowly taxi forward.
Then slowly accelerate on the runway.
And the ground staff at this time. They were all nervously watching the plane taxiing on the runway.
"Buzz." The plane accelerates at this time. Then slowly the landing gear flies. And then it landed again. It's like a person bouncing off the ground. The plane stumbled twice.
"Buzz." The plane roared again. At this time, the plane quickly pulled up.
And the ground staff waved their arms at this time to congratulate. The plane slowly lifted into the air. After the plane lifts off. He turned and flew towards the ground crew.
"Buzz." The roar of planes was heard. The plane flew over the heads of the ground crew.
"Ahhhhh The ground crew beckoned desperately. And the pilot shook the wings of the plane from side to side to indicate that he had heard their cries.
"Buzz." The plane soon flew over them. Then spin. Elevated. Disappear into the sky.
And the ground crew after waving their arms. It also slowly dispersed. All was at peace. But the weather on the horizon is still the same. The thick clouds did not disperse. Clouds pressed down on the plane, and it was difficult to penetrate this thick barrier. But the pilots challenged the skies with their bravery. In such bad weather. The plane still took off. This is the courage of the pilot, and the responsibility of a kind of knight in the sky.
