"Damn, the artillery of the Qi people is shelling us." A lieutenant reported the situation to the flight department, and the lieutenant wanted to get the plane out to take out the damn guns. After all, this kind of passive beating is not pleasant.

"Whew." A cannonball came again.

"We know very well about that. After all, we can all hear the sound of artillery shells, but now, no, since artillery can hit you, then it can also hit our planes. "The flight department gave their own opinion.

"Damn, if we can't defend the airport, you're doomed." The lieutenant threatened.

"We understand the situation, but you have to think about it, with such a long runway, when we take off, there is a high chance that a shell will hit us. Such a situation is not impossible. The man from the flight department replied.

"We don't care, all I know is that the only ones who can take out those damn guns right now are you planes." The lieutenant yelled. Because their positions are being shelled. And it's very violent. More than 20 pieces of Qi artillery frantically fired at the Qin army's position. This concentration is the kind of intensive shelling that concentrates all the artillery. And the Qin army is because of the relationship between the marines. Considering the simplicity of the airfield garrison and the fact that the airfield itself is a huge fire support system. The upper echelons of the Qin State thought so. Because it is very easy for an airplane to fly and drop a bomb from the air. And it can use its advantage in air speed to provide effective air fire support for its Marines who are fighting on the ground.

There is no mistake in thinking that air fire support is able to provide. But the top brass of the Qin military apparently overestimated the level of air fire support that could be reached.

Due to the fact that the engine technology does not provide more engine power. Therefore, the carrying capacity of aircraft, especially weapons, has always been at a very low stage. Plus some material limitations. During this period, the mainstream airplanes used skin and wooden planks, and even some airplanes used materials such as plywood to make airplanes in order to reduce the weight of the aircraft as much as possible.

As can be seen from these materials, the effective load of the aircraft, especially the load of weapons, is very small. The specific tactical effect of a single sortie is equivalent to firing eight mortar shells from a single mortar. In addition, the aircraft fuel load is also very limited. The material of the aircraft is basically wood, which means that it is impossible to have fuel tanks in the wings of the aircraft to increase the range of the aircraft. This also directly leads to the fact that it is impossible for aircraft to stay in the air for a longer period of time to provide effective air fire support.

It's not just the load and range, it's also the weapons of the aircraft. The only weapon used by the aircraft was aerial bombs, but the power of aerial bombs in this period was still small compared to the power of ground artillery. The machine guns used are also less powerful than ground heavy machine gun fire. The planes used point-30 machine gun rounds, which were more than enough against infantry, but they were somewhat inpowerful when firing from the air and continuing strafe from the ground. But the problem remains undetected.

For various reasons, the actual air support capability of the Qin military is far less than the Qin military thinks. The Qin military overestimated its own air fire support capabilities. This overestimation led to a large hole in the weapons that the military equipped the Marine Corps. That is, the Marine Corps is equipped with only a small number of direct-aim guns for flat fire.

The marines have, but there are fewer shells for this artillery. Compared to direct-aim artillery. The Qin army was equipped with a large number of curved mortars, especially mortar shells. But the problem is that mortars simply can't reach those guns. Mortars can only provide fire support at a distance of about 500 paces to 800 paces. If it's farther away. Then the accuracy will drop dramatically.

Now, the Marines can only pin their hopes on the planes and their direct-fire guns, which have an extremely limited number of shells.

"Bring the phone, I'll tell them." A captain took the phone and said.

"Your problem is that planes can't take off on the runway. Is it? The captain asked.

"Yes, our planes could be ・・・・・・・ by the other side at any time," replied the man from the flight department.

"Keep your dog's eyes open and give me a good look. Now the artillery of the Qi army is concentrating its fire on our side, and you have a shell on your side, I don't care what your reason is, if you can't let the plane take off. I'll let my artillery tilt all the shells on your hangars, I promise. Turn your plane into a pile of scrap wood. The captain deducted the phone after saying that.

In fact, Qin's planes had stopped flying on the day the Qi army surrounded them, and the pilots believed that the planes might be the first target of the Qi army. In fact, that's exactly what Qi Jun thought. But it is not clear to them where the exact location of the plane is. Because the airfield has a lot of big houses to put those planes. As a result, Qi Jun began to estimate that the houses where the planes could be dropped were the places where the planes would be parked. Unfortunately, they misjudged. The plane is parked on the side of the aircraft tower. And Qi Jun mistakenly believed that the warehouse area in the south, because there were many big houses in the warehouse area, and those big houses were likely to store a large number of aircraft.

At the same time, the Qi army believes that aircraft pose the greatest threat to artillery. Therefore, when they opened fire and fired shells, they already thought of launching an air strike like an eagle from the air. So, they focused on where the plane was parked. It's a pity that their artillery shells are not very threatening to big houses. The first is that they don't have enough range. Because their gunpowder is really not powerful. The second is that the warehouses of the Qin army are made of masonry. Able to withstand a certain amount of shell attacks. The two add up. The Qin army took a big advantage.

"There's no way, we'll have to give it a try." The person from the flight department said helplessly deducting the phone.

"Alright, let's act." A flying officer clapped his hands.

"Assemble, we've got a mission." The flight officer shouted loudly. At the same time, the observation posts provide the pilots with the data they can observe.

"Buzz, buzz." The plane began to make a loud roar.

"Is everyone clear about their mission?" The flight officer asked loudly.

"Understood, sir." The pilot replied loudly.

"Okay, good luck to you." The flight officer patted the pilots on the shoulder and signaled that they were ready to take off.

"Buzz." The pilot got on the plane and signaled. The ground crew pulls the cork. The plane slowly slid out of the hangar and began to take off.

"Oh. Oh, my God. Look at that! A Qi army observation sentry shouted loudly with a telescope. And pointed with his arm to the warehouse where the plane took off and shouted loudly.

"What's that?" A Qi State officer asked.

"Oh. Not good. Where are the birds of Qin? Our artillery is in danger. The officer shouted.

"Stop shooting, stop shooting. Enemy birds. Air threats. A group of Qi officers and soldiers shouted loudly.

"What's going on over there. What to call out loud. "The artillery of the Qi State has noticed the situation over there.

"What do you want to do over there?" An artillery officer of the Qi State watched as a group of people over there kept waving their arms.

"Seems to be telling us something." An artillery officer with a telescope.

"Looks like there's something going on over there." As he spoke, the artillery officer moved the binoculars. Wait until he moves the telescope to that position. Suddenly, he noticed something was wrong.

"Fly, fly, fly, fly." The officer shouted badly.

"What?" The artillery officer shouted. Then he noticed what was going on over there.

"Oh. Oh, my God. Get out of here. The officer regained his composure. Then he shouted. By this time, the plane was already rushing towards this side.

"Run. Come on. The birds are coming. The artillery officer shouted.

Qin's planes took off four planes at once, and the Qi army sentry saw the third, while the two planes in front had already turned their noses and rushed towards the artillery position.

"Damn, we shouldn't be so flustered." An older officer grabbed an artilleryman.

"Give me back, push the cannon out of the way for me." The officer shouted loudly.

"Infantry, shoot me into the sky. Knock those big birds down for me. Do not let them drop bombs on our artillery positions. The officer shouted.

"Shoot, hurry, shoot into the sky, shoot." A Qi officer in the distance shouted loudly when he saw a low-flying plane.

"Bang bang. Bang. Bang. "The rifle was shooting indiscriminately into the air. The Qi soldiers hoped that their rifles would be able to knock down the opposing planes.

"Whew." An airplane whistling. The plane took advantage of its speed and flew quickly over the heads of the Qi soldiers.

"Bang. Bang. Bang. Gunshots rang out one after another.

"Damn, if you hadn't run fast, I'd have knocked you down." A Qi soldier opened the trap door, took out the bullet and said. Because there were no specific aviation measures, the Qi soldiers did not think of using the advance amount to shoot, and they did not have experience in dealing with air targets. Plus their weapons have a somewhat low initial velocity. So, the air defense is not very effective.

"Bang." There was a cracking sound of wooden planks. One bullet was lucky enough to hit the wings of the plane, but because the wings were made of wooden planks, the problem was not very big.

"Damn. These ground infantrymen actually used rifles to shoot. They actually hit me. The pilot said without understanding.

"Now, damn you artillerymen eating the shit we threw at us." The pilot turned his attention to the artillery that was slowly moving from building to building.
