To be honest, Wang Wei really didn't pay too much attention to any military exploits and non-combat exploits. Now it is easier to fight these broken planes than the target planes in the past, what is the merit or not. But there is still a sense of satisfaction in seeing the rows of red stars sprayed on his fighter plane. Especially when I saw the adoring eyes of those new cadet pilots, I still felt very useful. Ah, man. Everyone has their vanity side. He thought about it: There are some problems with this arrangement, so that everyone can exercise in actual combat, especially those new students who have not really done it yet.'' Hehe' Zhang Tianfang's laughter came from the intercom system: "Li Kai, this kid is really anxious. Let you, the Grand Master, the great hero of the old man, stand guard for him,, isn't this a waste of talent.' Wang Wei also smiled and said, "Isn't it. But if you don't let him go, what will this kid say? This time, I've already been given a big hat for using power for personal gain. Alright, let's stop chattering. Let's get to work. I fly northeast and you southwest and along the strait . You turned around and flew back after crossing the Wanshan Islands, and I turned my head over Kinmen. Let's go,' Wang Wei said, and flew along the strait to the northeast.

'Hmph, aren't you using power for personal gain?' I don't know your little bit of caution yet.' Zhang Tianfang said to himself: 'You are leaving me standing guard alone.' He knows this captain who has been his partner for many years too well. As soon as the iron-blooded and angry young man started a battle and charged ahead, he was really a bit of a bit of a power for personal gain, but this is also good, and he also borrowed a lot of light! However, this time, he was also 'plotted' out for himself

The 19 planes that took off from Kinmen were none other than Hu Lian's paratrooper brigade on Butterfly Island, and 495 fully armed Kuomintang paratroopers, under the leadership of their captain Han Pengju, took 15 C-47 air trains and rushed into the blue sky with murderous spirit. Under the protection of 4 F-84s, it flew violently towards Butterfly Island. This is a special force of the Kuomintang, and it is the heart and soul of the old man. They are equipped with all American equipment. Exactly the same as the American 101st Airborne Division . Including the socks worn by the soldiers are purchased in the United States according to the US 101 standard. The squadron level of the paratroopers is staffed by military advisers to the US military. But the operation did not come. Because they were ordered to go back to the United States for a vacation a month and a half ago.

According to the Thunder plan, the use of paratroopers is a backup option. It was when the battle reached a stalemate stage, and at the critical moment, a group of paratrooper special forces were parachuted in the central area of the communist army. Directly knock out the command organs of the communist army. or the core position. This was the first time that the Kuomintang army used paratroopers in war. It is also Hu Lian's killer feature. Originally, according to the C-47 crew, each C-47 was 3 crew members and 28 armed crews. This time, in order to increase the number of troops in this operation, they installed 5 more paratroopers on each aircraft, bringing the total number of armed crew members to 33 per C-47.

The Kuomintang attached great importance to this operation, and Air Force Commander Zhou Zhirou personally flew F-84 fighter-bombers to escort it.

This murderous aerial force is divided into three 'human' zigzag formations, and it is mighty and unstoppable. In front of it is two F-84 fighter-bombers to clear the way, and behind it is escorted by two F-84 fighter-bombers. Zhou Zhirou drove the F-84 and looked down, and it had flown over Qianhu Bay, and in front of it was General Bay. One advent into Butterfly Island. At this time, he received a call from the T Bay Air Force Command that the four F-84 fighter-bombers and four B25 bombers that had gone to Butterfly Island had lost contact. Ask him to immediately withdraw to Kinmen with paratroopers. He immediately turned on the radio and ignored the silence of the radio. Picked up the microphone and hurriedly called Tie Cheng, the captain of the third wing flying in front of the F-84, and asked him to immediately turn around and lead the transport group back to Kinmen. At this time, he heard Tie Cheng shouting: 'Commander, it's too late, four MiG fighters have been found in front of us, and they are rushing towards us. You organize the retreat, I'll cover.' Zhou Zhirou looked at the compass and looked down again, knowing that it was now over Futou Bay, and flying over Futou Bay was about to arrive at Mudi Island. He saw that the formation of the C-47 in front was already somewhat disorganized. He hurriedly asked Tie Cheng about the situation ahead? After shouting three times, the other party did not answer.

It's not that the captain of the third wing, Tie Chengmu, has no commander and shouldn't answer him, but that he has now sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Li Kai clearly saw the situation of the enemy aircraft formation through the airborne radar. In order not to let go of the enemy, he ordered his own hitchhiker to lead three MiG-15 changes to meet the enemy from the front, and he himself took one MiG-15 change to intersperse the past from the side and launch an attack behind the flank of the enemy group.

When Tie Cheng reported the enemy situation to the commander of the Air Force, Zhou Zhirou, he faithfully performed his duties and took his own plane to meet him. Tian Ye commanded three MiG-15s, dropped the auxiliary fuel tanks, climbed the speed and first attacked the two F84s. Tian Ye commanded his apprentice T104 to launch a fierce attack on the enemy's long plane, that is, the F-84 piloted by Tie Cheng, the captain of the third wing.T104 may be the first time to participate in actual combat, a little nervous and excited, or because of meritorious service, anyway, while rushing forward, while constantly firing artillery, several times did not hit the enemy plane, Tie Cheng with skillful technology, has been making a small angle of serpentine movement, or up and down, dodging the opponent's onslaught. From time to time, the T104 was strafed with six 12,7 mm machine guns on board. The T104 not only did not hit the enemy plane, but its own plane was made of iron, and it was also hit with a few holes, but fortunately, it was only 12,7 machine gun bullets, and did not hurt the main components. The field of its own trekking to get into danger and he could no longer look at it. In fact, he had already locked the F-84 fighter-bomber through the helmet sight. He refueled his feet and rushed forward, then pressed the firing button of the 23 Hammi double-barreled cannon, and fired 68 rounds of 23 mm aerial artillery shells at once. After several battles, Tie Cheng saw that the communist pilot who attacked him was a rookie pilot with a flight time of absolutely no more than 100 hours, and he was relieved. He really blushed for those [***] pilots who had been shot down before him. How could it be shot down by a pilot of such a level as the communist army? Hundreds and thousands of tons of gasoline were drunk in vain. He was getting ready to enjoy his specialty dish 'Roast Rookie'. He felt a plane rushing towards him directly in front of him, and before he could see what kind of plane was coming, the F-84 fighter-bomber he was flying trembled violently. A fire in the rear compartment has rushed into the driver's cabin. Own plane with a downward tilt of 70 degrees. He tried his best to pull the longitudinal rod but there was no reaction, he knew that he was done this time. He was unwilling to take one last look at the blue sky that he was infinitely fond of. Run to the blue sea below. This Kuomintang ace pilot, who flew for more than 2,000 hours, died in the waters of Futou Bay.

Frustrated by the injuries of his own apprentice, he ordered T104 to return to the airport.

At this time, T102 and T103 two MiG-15 changed, and the twin planes tightly bit the Tiecheng flirtatious machine, and they continued to attack the F84 in turn. This F84 only has the ability to parry, not the power to fight back. He seized the opportunity of the T102 once, and the dive shot was unsuccessful, and quickly turned left to flee in the direction of the TW. At this time, just in time for the T103 to prepare for a dive shot, the left turn of the enemy plane was just above his attack position, and he immediately stabilized the nose of the plane and stared at the aura of the sight." Dog, look where you run! The T103 pilot cursed in his heart, and pressed the gun button with two thumbs, "Knock knock knock...... A rapid salvo fired, this F84, many bullets did not have time to react, it pulled a long black smoke, and plunged into the sea of Futou Bay.

Tian Ye ordered T102 and T103 two MiG-15s to be changed, and first surrounded those C47 transport planes behind them, so as not to run away.

The Kuomintang Air Force commander shouted Tie Cheng several times, but the other party did not answer. I saw that the formation of the C-47 transport aircraft in front of me was already out of order. Feel bad about big things. He immediately ordered the C-47 transport planes to retreat to the TW and Kinmen respectively. He and the F-84 that was pressing in the back turned their heads and wanted to retreat to the Golden Gate. But he was still a little late, and at this time Li Kai and the MiG-15 had been interspersed. Li Kai ordered the T101 to attack the F-84 that was turning left at 10 o'clock in front, and he commanded to cover the T101 attack. While pulling down the helmet sights, the flashing indicator light allowed him to quickly 'see' another F84. Two rockets burst out of the nest and flew towards the F-84 fighter-bomber 4 kilometers away with a long tail flame.

T101, the enemy plane that rushed up to attack, was the F-84 fighter-bomber piloted by Zhou Zhirou, chief of the Kuomintang General Staff and commander of the Air Force. In the process of turning, he saw a black dot at 10 o'clock on the upper left, and quickly moved to his side, and sighed in his heart that the fighting style of the communist army in the air is also very special. How did you come to the back so quickly. As soon as he saw that it was too late for him to catch up and seize the height, he pushed the longitudinal pole forward, and the plane rushed to the surface of the sea, flying close to the surface of the sea. With his skillful skills and full understanding of the F-84 aircraft, he quickly got rid of the attack, T101, like all the new students, has not yet come and received low-altitude training at sea.T101 from a height of more than 3000 meters, a sharp dive down. A little overwhelmed.' Don't panic, look at the altimeter, trust the altimeter, and pull the fly upward.' Li Kai's anxious shout sounded in the headphones. Under the timely guidance of Li Kai, the T101 regained its altitude.' Don't be stupid, go and chase those transport planes' The order of his master Li Kai sounded in his ears again. He wiped the cold sweat from his face and immediately threw himself into the battle to encircle and suppress C47.

Li Kai looked at the enemy plane that was fleeing in the distance, close to the sea, and was already on the edge of the rocket shooting, but he still fired four rockets. He really wanted to launch a PL9C air-to-air missile, but then he thought about it, it was worth wasting a PL9C missile on this broken plane, and he couldn't make everyone laugh when he went back. He also wanted to catch up again, but look at the enemy's transports that have already herded sheep. Hurry up and chase it, there are more than 30 enemies on it, don't lose the watermelon and check the sesame seeds. But how did he know that it was his flash of thought that let the chief of the Kuomintang General Staff and the commander of the Air Force go. Later, I learned that Li Kai really regretted it, and if he had added a foot of oil at that time, wouldn't it be over. It's not a waste to send a missile. It's my own hesitation at this point, I let go of such a big fish, and I didn't grasp the opportunity.

But Zhou Zhirou was not so easy to escape back to Kinmen, it was really a life of nine deaths. With his skillful piloting skills and many years of rich flying experience, he smoothly set up the attack of the MiG-15. He thought to himself: What kind of Soviet pilot, it is purely a lie about the military situation, and the attack on himself is obviously a rookie-class pilot who has not been trained at low altitude on the sea. Tactical moves are dull and stiff. I know how to rush forward. He was so hung and plunged into the back at this time that he suddenly heard a loud noise, feeling that his plane was violently shaking, and he couldn't open his eyes due to the strong wind. He closed his eyes, pulled down his goggles with difficulty, and instinctively pulled the plane up, and he saw that the front of his cockpit had been punched a big hole. He deserves to be a flying old bird, at this time he calmly checked the various surnames of the plane, and the stability of the aircraft is very bad. The steering is out of order, which indicates that something is wrong with the rear wing. He glanced back, and sure enough, the tail was broken in half. It looks like it's impossible to land. I could only insist on parachuting in the airspace of Kinmen. He looked nervously at all kinds of meters, afraid that something would be abnormal. Then he had to maintain the altitude of the plane, and he carefully thought about the preparations before the parachute jump.

What caused such a big risk to Commander Zhou was the four 57mm rockets fired by Li Kai that did not report much hope. Any ammunition has an effective range and an actual ballistic flight range. It was this actual ballistic flight range that hung in the balance, the life of the chief of the Kuomintang General Staff and commander of the Air Force.
